May 19, 2016 21:54

Amina Ali, the Chibok girl who escaped Boko Haram after spending more than two years as a prisoner, met with Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa in Abuja Thursday.

During the emotional meeting, President Buhari held the baby Amina gave birth to while a captive of the terror group.

"Like all Nigerians and many others around the world, I am delighted that Amina Ali is free, but it is tinged with deep sorrow with what she had to go through," Buhari said.

Amina was accompanied by her family and Borno State Gov. Kashim Shettima, whose residence she had visited the previous night.
