Report just reaching us indicated that Boko Haram insurgents have released 80 out of over 270 they abducted in April 2014 from the Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State.
Sources said that the release of the 80 abducted school girls came after further negotiations between the Islamist group and the Muhammadu administration and that those released are currently in Banki town in Borno state awaiting airlift to unknown destination.
Only late last week, news filtered in that the Nigerian army had wounded the Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau in an air strike.
