The Presidency has announced that the terrorist Boko Haram group is ready to negotiate the release of 83 more girls kidnapped from Chibok years ago.
This is coming after the group released 21 of the girls last Thursday.
"These 21 released girls are supposed to be tale bearers to tell the Nigerian government that this faction of Boko Haram has 83 more Chibok girls," Presidential Spokesman, Garba Shehu, said according to Reuters.
"The faction said it is ready to negotiate if the government is willing to sit down with them," he said, adding that FG is prepared to negotiate with the branch of Boko Haram.
Information Minister, Lai Mohammad, on Sunday also expressed optimism that a bigger batch of Chibok girls will soon be released.
He however warned analysts and commentators to be careful of the comments they make so that they don't jeopardize the release of the remaining girls.
