<\/p>\nSome of the 110 abducted Dapchi schoolgirls in Yobe state Nigeria has been released by the Boko Haram insurgents late last light.<\/p>\n
According to the Nigerian Information Minister, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the released girls have been transported to their homes.<\/p>\n
The release of the girls came barely a few days after Defence Minister Dan Alli promised that the abducted Dapchi schoolgirls would be rescued.<\/p>\n
They were abducted by a faction of Boko Haram fighters at the Government Girls Technical College, Dapchi in Yobe state on February 19.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Amharic M-grah, a Dapchi resident, whose daughters were among the 110 abducted students, told TheCable that his children were brought back on Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe report is true. I have seen my two daughters who were kidnapped last month,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Another resident said there is confusion in the town as many people are running out of fear.<\/p>\n
\u201cBoko Haram just returned the kidnapped girls this morning. They brought them back in the same set of vehicles which they used in conveying them last month,\u201d the resident said.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople are scared because they do not know what the insurgents are up to.\u201d<\/p>\n
Defence minister Mansur Dan-Ali gave the assurance on Saturday during a television programme.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt can be earlier; maybe a week, it can be two weeks, but we are on it, and I\u2019m telling you with all sense of sincerity that we are closing in on them,\u201d he told ChannelsTV.<\/p>\n
The minister revealed that all necessary efforts were being made to ensure that the girls return safely as soon as possible.<\/p>\n
