Aid workers, who have been abducted by the alleged members of the Islamic State of West Africa Province, ISWAP, have been released by the terrorist Organisation. This, this magazine gathered, was part of the batch released by the group after negotiations.

Released was Idris Alooma, abducted along Damaturu-Maiduguri road. He is a staff of the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR). Also released were Reverend Sango and Barka Wasinda. Wasinda was a staff of Nigeria Ports Authority, NPA, while Sango was a Christian Cleric.

Last March, the terrorist group had attacked support facilities of the UN organ, which included healthcare facilities. In response, the UN suspended operations in the areas of Files and Damask, the epicenters of the attack. It is not clear, however, where the released kidnap victims are receiving treatments.
