Confirming the success of the operation, Director of Defence Information, Major-General Chris Olukolade said he could not confirm if any of them was from Chibok until after thorough screening and proper investigation.
“I can only confirm the rescued this afternoon of 200 girls and 93 women in different camps in the forest.
“We are yet to determine their origin as all the freed persons are now being screened and profiled. Please don’t misquote me on their origin. We will provide more details later.”
