I hope this is true...The atmosphere in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital was charged yesterday as news filtered in that abducted school girls from Chibok may be released today, Leadership Newspaper reports.
According to the report, the heightened optimism is as a result of “tremendous” progress being made in the ongoing negotiations with the insurgents in Chad.
A native of Chibok and government official who spoke with the newspaper early today said: “We are all in high spirit. I just returned from Chibok and from the information reaching us so far, we may very soon – in fact between now and tomorrow (Friday), have our girls freed”.
The security is also not left out in the optimism that’s in the air, as security agencies in Borno also confirmed that the girls may be released within 48 hours.

Saying it may be too early for jubilation, the officer said: “because we are dealing with very erratic set of people, we hope that this time around, it is for real, because we have been expecting this to happen since Monday”.
