Meanwhile, French military aircraft have been carrying out surveillance missions to help countries bordering Nigeria tackle Boko Haram militants, officials said on Tuesday, amid efforts by African countries to coordinate a response to the threat posed by the terror group.
The African Union (AU) has authorised a force of 7,500 troops from Nigeria, Chad, Cameroun and Niger that make up the Multinational Joint Task Force (MJTF) under the Lake Chad Basin Commission to fight the insurgents.
