Timothy Olanrewaju, Maiduguri

The school girls just released by Boko Haram in Dapchi, Yobe State, have been moved to Maiduguri on their way to Abuja, military sources say.

They were transported in a fleet of vehicles, including mini buses and two 56 seater buses, with military escorts conveying them.

The girls, numbering 76, had undergone medical checks after their release earlier today by a convoy of their abductors.
