A journalist, Ahmad Salkida, who had previously obtained insider information from the terrorists' camp, disclosed this on Twitter.

He said the video also featured Shuaibu Moni, one of the swapped Boko Haram commanders, threatening the Nigerian authorities and President Muhammadu Buhari.

According to the journalist, Moni said that more than five Boko Haram commanders were exchanged for the 82 freed Chibok girls.
