<p>We continue to work closely with the Nigerian authorities and our other partners
in the search for the abducted Chibok girls. On 3 September, my Hon Friend, the Member
for Southend and Rochford East (James Duddridge MP), the Minister for Africa led the
UK delegation to the Abuja ministerial meeting on security in Nigeria. At this meeting,
he emphasised the importance of regional coordination between Nigeria and its neighbours
in defeating Boko Haram and locating the girls. The Prime Minister has stressed to
President Jonathan our continued commitment to helping the Nigerian Government find
the girls. It is not yet clear what impact the recently announced ceasefire between
the Nigerian security forces and Boko Haram might have on the missing Chibok girls.
We are monitoring events closely.</p>
