London, May 11 (IBNS) British Prime Minister David Cameron has promised that the country would 'do what we can' to find out over 200 schoolgirls abducted by militants in Nigeria.

The Prime Minister made the remarks as he held a sign bearing the "#Bring Back Our Girls" slogan on the BBC's Andrew Marr show.

Cameron later tweeted: "Proud to support #BringBackOurGirls."

Pope Francis on Saturday tweeted: " Let us all join in prayer for the immediate release of the schoolgirls kidnapped in Nigeria. #BringBackOurGirls."

US First Lady Michelle Obama on Saturday said she and her husband President Barack Obama were 'outraged and heartbroken' over the kidnapping of more than 200 Nigerian girls from their school dormitory by militants last month.

Militant group Boko Haram has claimed responsibility for kidnapping of the girls.
