Chief of Defence Staff, Air Marshall Alex Badeh announced two weeks ago that the boko haram had agreed to a ceasefire following an agreement reached by both the government and militants, after which one Mallam Danladi Ahmadu, who addressed himself as the Director General of Boko Haram repeatedly gave the assurance that the latest deal will end the violence and release the Chibok girls.

According to Ahmadu, the Chibok girls will be released today,  being 27th October 2014, to the Chadian President Idris Derby, for onward presentation to the Nigerian Government.

The entire nation awaits with fingers crossed on the authenticity of the claims by the Director General of Boko Haram, Mallam Danladi Ahmadu, which will be determined by the release of of over 200 Chibok girls who were abducted by the Boko Haram sect on April 14 this year.
