Ready for your weekly decompress? I know I am, here's your zen space story of the week.
82 Nigerian schoolgirls, who were kidnapped by Boko Haram back in 2014, were reunited with their families on Saturday. The 82 girls who were released this month follow a group of 21 girls who were released in October. The Nigerian government, with assistance from the International Committee of the Red Cross, and the Swiss Government negotiated the release of the girls with Boko Haram. Five commanders from Haram's extremist group were exchanged for their release. The Nigerian government has said it will continue negotiations to ensure the remaining 113 girls are freed. Both sets of freed girls have been under the care of the government taking part in a 9 month reintegration program that President Muhammadu Buhari is personally overseeing. Welcome home girls! #BringBackOurGirls
