Militant group Boko Haram released two Italian priests and a Canadian nun it abducted in northern Cameroon in April, national television reported on Sunday.
Priests Giampaolo Marta and Gianantonio Allegri and nun Gilberte Bussier, who had been kidnapped from their parish in Tcherein Cameroon’s Far North region on April 4, were released in the early hours of Sunday near the Nigerian border.
Security forces escorted them to the military base in Maroua, from where they were flown on board a military aircraft to the capital, Yaounde.
