France said on Wednesday it is sending a specialized team to Abuja to help face the Boko Haram who claim to have abducted hundreds of schoolgirls in Nigeria. "This crime cannot be left unpunished," Foreign Minister of France Laurent Fabius said Wednesday. With more than 4,000 troops working between Mali to the west and Central African Republic to the east, Paris hopes to prevent Boko Haram from spreading north and Nigeria's security from dissolving.
