A bulk of the schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram from Government Girls Science Technical College, Dapchi, Yobe state, were released on Wednesday.

The schoolgirls, 110, were abducted on February 19 but only 91 have been confirmed released by the federal government.

While some Nigerians expressed delight over their return, others accused the government of playing politics with the abduction.

Below are some of the tweets.

So they released #DapchiGirls and left #ChibokGirls, maybe Gej should go rescue them because this one is present administration own. I dunno again 🤕

It will be foolish to commend anybody for the release of #DapchiGirls because they ought not be captured in the first place. There were so many warnings before the capture yet no action was taken despite the experience of #ChibokGirls

It must have taken a lot to return the #DapchiGirls in terms of logistics. It would be great to know what Nigeria had to give/do this time to have these girls returned. We are glad they are back but let’s not miss a chance to learn how to do better.

They want to divert public attention from the growing insecurity in Benue, Taraba, Zamfara and other states where deaths has been going nonstop due to farmers and herdsmen feud and divert public resources. But Nigerians can't be fooled the second time #DapchiGirls #Dapchi

Taking a moment to just rejoice with the parents of the 76 returned #DapchiGirls. And holding on to hope for the remaining 34.

My question before celebrating the release of #DapchiGirls is; "Who ordered the withdrawal of security from Dapchi?"

#DapchiGirls have been returned to point of kidnap by BH.
Journalists are barred from the pool.
President Buhari is working, isn't he?

— Jerome Samson (@Gentlejerome) March 21, 2018

We need to ask #DapchiGirls if they saw the remaining #ChibokGirls in the camp. Or does Boko boys now have two factions?

I am happy the girl have returned. God be praised. When will heads roll on this #DapchiGirls issue? Why wasn't anyone arrested?
