Chad’s troops have rescued most of the 100 people kidnapped by the Boko Haram sect, following a successful military operation against the sect.
The terrorist group earlier this month kidnapped 100 people, according to a Nigerian security official and a local self-defence member.
The Associated Press reported that the rescue operation took place on Friday.
The abductions took place on August 10 in Doron Baga in the Kukawa area near the border with Chad, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak to the media.
