Danes allocate $2 million to help Boko Haram victims

Copenhagen - The Danish government is allocating 12.5
million kroner ($2 million) to help the victims of the
Boko Haram extremist group in Nigeria.
Foreign aid minister Mogens Jensen says Denmark is
acting "in solidarity with the affected families" and wants
to give them clothes, food, shelters and "a possibility to
get through the crisis."
Jensen said Thursday the recent slaughter of hundreds
of villagers in Nigeria's north has caused major
displacements from rural areas to the main cities, in
northeastern Nigeria and neighboring Chad, Niger and
Cameroon. He added the money would be channeled
through the international Red Cross and the United
Nations.
