Not less than 51 girls who escaped from Boko Haram, were brought to the Presidential Villa with the parents of those still being held by the sect.
Four brand new buses of Abuja Urban Mass Transit were used to convey the girls and their parents from their hotel to the meeting ground.
It was a closed door meeting held under tight supervision.
The escaped girls were seated together, parents sat at one end while the community and opinion leaders who also came for the meeting sat together.
Here are photos of the meeting:
