A five-year-old boy,
Ali Ahmadu, who was seriously
injured when he was run over by Boko Haram militants three years ago, has taken
his first steps since.
The Islamist militants drove over his back on a motorbike as
he tried to flee with his mother from an attack on their village, Chibok.
Ali is now walking again, after having spinal cord surgery
in Dubai. The operation was funded by a Nigerian charity, which raised about
$60,000 (£45,000) for his treatment.
Ali is expected to stay in Dubai for about three months
while he undergoes further physical therapy and rehabilitation exercises.
