Also released from the Boko Haram terrorists, according to the statement, are 10 women kidnapped in a raid by the militant group on a military/police convoy on Damboa Road, near Maiduguri.
Shehu said their release followed a series of negotiations facilitated by the International Committee of the Red Cross, ICRC, as directed by the President.
