Freed Chibok girls not allowed home for Christmas, say families

Families of the Nigerian "Chibok girls" freed by Islamist group Boko Haram say they are being closely guarded and were not allowed home for Christmas. 

Boko Haram kidnapped 276 girls in April 2014, but freed 21 of them in October after negotiations with the Red Cross.
  
The freed girls have been in government custody since their release but were brought home to Chibok for Christmas. 

But family members told the BBC that the girls were kept in a politician's house and barred from going home.

They were also prevented from attending church services with their families.
