Nigerian government's hope for return of Boko Haram girls
The Nigerian government is still hopeful of securing the release of more than 200 schoolgirls kidnapped by Boko Haram.
However there is growing uncertainty after suspected Islamic militants from the group clashed with soldiers in the north-east of the country.
A truce was declared recently, but despite this at least 20 people were killed in the fighting.
