be "released unconditionally if found not to have anything to do with insurgency or Boko Haram", said Brigadier General Abdulraman Kuliya. He added that the 593 who were freed comprised elderly people, men, women and kiddies.

. The insurgency, now in its eighth year, has killed over 20,000 people and forced over two million from their homes.
