he's reporting tonight from accra in nearby ghana. so i think the question on most americans' minds is why haven't we found these girls and why are we hearing about more kidnappings throughout the year by boca what ram? >> the short answer is boko haram is doing something very much like winning in the northeast of nigeria. the girls, there are 276 at first, and now it's down to 219 after a number of them escaped. and that's just a small segment of the total number of people boca hararksam has kidnapped. they control a large section of eastern nigeria, including mountains, caves forests small towns, even small cities at this point. it's a hard thing to find individual scirlz girls who have all been split up at this point. in may the u.s. sent drones and manned surveillance flights, and they did spot large groups of girls twice in june and july. they have no idea if those are the girls or if those are a separate group of girls that boko haridiculousam kidnapped. they did find large groups of girls. they sent the drones elsewhere where t

they want forces from ghana sierra leone countries like liberia and other parts of west africa instead of chad and cameroon. countries like chad were very keen to fight boko haram in a very tight position, because chad has a lot to lose, because it has got great trade relations with nigeria most of the livestock from chad are taken from market in nigeria. there's a lot that comes from nigeria to chad and the road that links them is closed by boko haram. this is one of those forces deployed to try to take on boko haram. from what we are hearing from diplomats, there is the likelihood of having two forces fighting boko haram, one inside the country allowed by nigeria which is echoed and other by the forces of cameroon and chad fighting boko haram along the border. >> hamad, thank you very much. he is reporting for us from chad. boko haram is high on the agenda at african union summit. a force is called for to eradicate the group. the au chief warned the group is a threat beyond the nigeria borders. the new african union chairman was elected. we are at the headquarters in addaddinadd is e

last year the chairman of the commission the president of ghana said on two occasions that they are consideringting up a regional force to tackle boko haram and bring to an end the violence unleashed by this group on people in the subregion. now cameroon has taken the initiative of asking chad to help with troops to assist in the situation. cameroon thought this was largely a nigerian problem, until they started attacking chad on its own territory. this is becoming more and more a situation whereby the countries in the region are becoming more and more afraid of what boko haram is doing in nigeria. cameroon and chad are definitely not members of the economic community of west africa they belong to another regional grouping, but it looks like countries in that region especially countries under threat of boko haram attacks are coming together and with help of economic -- or regional groupings, they hope that once and for all, they will find a lasting solution to the problem of boko haram attacks in their -- member states. >> how much international support is there for any sort of regional action?

six weeks ago, a 14-year-old nigerian girl was discovered in a crowded marketplace in ghana. she had explosives strapped to her body but unlike her companions, she had refused to pull the tab, saving herself and others. two weeks later, a teenaged boy approached a shiite mosque in baghdad and unbuttoning his jacket, he told the guards come i am wearing a suicide vest but i do not want to blow myself up. last november, a young man defected from house about -- al-shabaab because a bunch of heavily armed, as he put it sociopathic militants promised him money and paradise. instead, he said he had no life, no family, no future. ladies and gentlemen those three examples represent just about the basic -- most basic choice there is between death and life, between destroying and building. it ought to be an easy choice. yet, in nigeria last month, a boko haram run video showed facts shooting defenseless people on the ground with the narrator saying, from now on, killing, slaughtering, destruction and bombings will be our religious duty. on december 16, in pakistan authorities intercept
