Today marks 1000 days since Boko Haram extremists abducted nearly 300 girls from Chibok in north-east Nigeria

One thousand days ago, 270 schoolgirls were abducted from a secondary school in Chibok in north-east Nigeria by the Islamist group Boko Haram. The whereabouts of 200 girls are still unknown. We speak to Nigeria's presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu.
