Several mothers of girls being held in Nigeria by militant group Boko Haram gathered in Lagos, where non-government organisations and Gohmert offered them therapy and support. Boko Haram, a militant group waging a campaign to create an Islamic state in the region, abducted 276 girls from a school in Chibok on April 14. [Photo/Agencies]
