The United States of America switched from words to action in an attempt to find over 200 missing GGSS Chibok female students.

The U.S. Secretary of the State, John Kerry, offered to send “a team of experts” to Nigeria, during a telephone call to President Goodluck Jonathan on May 6, 2014, Tuesday.

According to the spokesperson of the U.S. State Department, Jen Psaki, President Jonathan “welcomed” the offer.

It would be recalled that John Kerry promised help to Nigeria on May 4, 2014, Saturday, when he declared that the U.S.A. will “do everything possible to support the Nigerian government to return these young women to their homes and to hold the perpetrators to justice”.

Other world powers, including the U.K., France and China are also on the list of potential assistants of the Federal Government in their rescue mission.
