Boko Haram and Nigeria accord release of 200 kidnapped girls
Nigeria’s government has accorded a cease-fire with Islamist terrorist group Boko Haram for the release of the 200 young girls who had been kidnapped by the latter, according to the country’s defence minister.
Boko Haram however has not issued a public statement.
The young women were taken during a raid by the militants on the town of Chibok this past spring.
