Nigeria has already deployed two army divisions to look for the girls. Meanwhile, several nations including the United States, Britain, Isreal and France have offered the country help.
According to Alarabiya, Nigeria has rejected the prisoner swap offer for hostage schoolgirls in the new Boko Haram video on Youtube. The Nigerian government quickly rejected the deal as it was "absurd" for a terrorist group to be setting conditions. Interior Minister Abba Moro told Agence France-Presse, "The issue in question is not about Boko Haram... giving conditions."
Authorities are reportedly holding hundreds of alleged Boko Haram militants. The suspected militants reportedly tried to escape and overpowered guards at a prison near the presidential villa in Abuja in March. This action triggered a gun battle which killed 21 people.
New Boko Haram video on Youtube is just one of the many ways the militant group has set terror on people's lives in Nigeria. The group has reportedly killed thousands since 2009 and destabilized parts of northeast Nigeria.
