DARE DEVIL ESCAPE
Sometime long ago, but not too long, about 200 secondary school girls were abducted en masse. They were whisked away from the school where they were about to write their final year exam by the notorious Boko Haram bandits. The abduction of these school girls drew public outrage across the world, including no less, wife of a former US President with a hashtag of #BringBackOurGirls. The hashtag went viral. That night, while encamped in the vast dreaded Sambisa Forest, one militia boy who'd been indoctrinated by the bandits, and trained to kill and maim their victims mercilessly, had gazed upon the young face of one of the girls in captivity, and had a sudden change of heart. She was probably the youngest and smallest victim. She was bold, defiant and fearless in the face of the danger that surrounded them. This boy took one look at her face and renounced his blood-oath membership of the rag-tag army sect.

This boy took one look at her face and renounced his blood-oath membership of the rag-tag army sect.
With the full knowledge of the consequences now hanging around his neck for defecting, which was a slow, painful death, this boy embarked on a near impossible journey across the Sambisa Forest, along with three of the school girls that were held captive by the Boko Haram. His first major counter-offensive was to fight his two close house mates, which ended up in their instant deaths. From then on, there was no going back. For three nights and two days, these three young school girls, led by this renegade militia boy, fought their way through fist fights, knife fights and gun fights, to final freedom. It is a story of defiance, resilience, and sheer will.
