At least 48 women have regained their freedom from the captivity of the terrorist sect, Boko Haram who abducted them from Maiwa and Shuwarin villages in Mafa LGA, in Borno State.

According to a security information website, Zagazola, the women were abducted from their farmlands on Tuesday, August 22, 2023.

It said the women, after their abduction, were then taken to an unknown destination, from where the terrorists demanded payment of ransom from the families of the women.
