The federal government has assured Nigerians that there was no need to worry about the Boko Haram suspects that were swapped in exchange for the 82 Chibok girls released on Saturday.
The commendation came after the government, through Presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu, confirmed the release of the girls which it said was as a result of combined efforts among security agencies, the military, the government of Switzerland, the Red Cross, local and international NGOs.
Reliable military sources said that the freed girls were accompanied on Saturday by officials of the International Committee of the Red Cross, ICRC, to Banki, a town in Borno State that shares a common border with Cameroun.
The United Kingdom and the United States of America have warned that the Boko Haram terrorist group is planning to kidnap foreigners who are rendering humanitarian services in the North East region of Nigeria.
The United Nations Development Programme, UNDP, has said it planned to spend $4 million in its intervention programmes in the insurgency-hit North East Nigeria.
The attack occurred at Mandarari ward in Konduga Local Government Area of the state on Thursday night, claiming the lives of seven people, including the two attackers.
