ABUJA (Reuters) - Nigerian police offered a $300,000(176,782 pounds) reward on Wednesday for information leading to the rescue of more than 200 schoolgirls abducted by Islamist rebels.
The mass kidnapping last month by militant group Boko Haram, which is fighting for an Islamic state in northeast Nigeria, triggered an international outcry and protests in Nigeria, piling pressure on the government to get the girls back.
