According to a report monitored on BBC, the state’s Commissioner for Security and Internal Affairs, Abubakar Muhammad Dauran, said two hundred and seventy students were freed and are currently in the state capital, Gusau.
He said the earlier figure of three hundred and seveenteen has now been discovered to be inaccurate as no girl has been left behind in captivity.
It is not clear whether a ransom was paid.
The schoolgirls were seized by gunmen in Jangebe on Friday morning.
