Nigeria’s military says it has agreed a truce with Islamist militant group Boko Haram – and says the schoolgirls the group has abducted will be released.

Boko Haram sparked global outrage six months ago by abducting more than 200 schoolgirls.

Nigeria’s chief of defence staff, Alex Badeh, announced the truce. Boko Haram has not made a public statement.

The military has struggled to defeat Boko Haram, an Islamist group that has fought an insurgency since 2009.

The girls were seized in the north-eastern town of Chibok, and their continued captivity has led to criticism of the Nigerian government’s efforts to secure their release.

Air Chief Marshal Badeh revealed the truce at the close of a three-day security meeting between Nigeria and Cameroon. He said Nigerian soldiers would comply with the agreement.

Which truce again? I thought they said chibok girls abduction was a scam?

So we should watch out for the next season(the return of chibok girls 1&2)
