China, UK offer tracking help

China and the United Kingdom have offered to deploy advanced tracking technologies to help Nigeria's search and rescue operation of abducted schoolgirls, a spokesperson said on Wednesday.

"In talks with President Jonathan earlier today, Premier Li Keqiang promised that his country will make any useful information acquired by its satellites and intelligence services available to Nigeria's security agencies," Reuben Abati, special adviser to Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan on media and publicity, told a news conference in Abuja.

Li is on an official visit to Nigeria.
