The girls were part of more than 270 kidnapped Chibok schoolgirls held since April 14, 2014, by Boko Haram. Over 50 of them escaped on the night of their kidnap. 21 of them were released on October 13 in a deal brokered by the International Committee of Red Cross and the Swiss government.

After the release, the federal government said that the terrorist sect was willing to negotiate the release of more girls.
