The corpses were transported to the Maiduguri airport by helicopter and taken to the mortuary by ambulances.
Suspected Boko Haram militants killed at least 11 people in the attack in the community, near the Cameroon border, and a female nurse was abducted.
The United Nations confirmed the aid workers were all Nigerian nationals, and President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the attack, describing Boko Haram as godless, brutish, and despicable.
