One kidnapped schoolgirl found in Nigeria
She was reportedly kidnapped from Chibok area in Nigeria two years ago.
Activists told the BBC that Amina Ali Nkeki was found by a vigilante group on Tuesday in the huge Sambisa Forest, close to the border with Cameroon.
218 girls are still missing.
A civilian fighter belonging to the Civilian Joint Task Force (JTF) reportedly recognised the girl.
Aboku Gaji, leader of the vigilante group in Chibok, was quoted as saying by BBC: "The moment this girl was discovered by our vigilantes, she was brought to my house.
"I instantly recognised her, and insisted we should take her to her parents," the leader said.
"On seeing her, the mother and other relatives rushed to hug her and started shedding tears. Afterwards, we had to make them understand that the girl would not be left in their care. She must be handed over to the authority," Gaji said.
