It is worth remembering that the leading APC candidate, Mahammadu Buhari, has been accused of inciting a violent uprising after losing the 2011 presidential election, resulting in nearly 1,000 deaths. Next year, some fear, this could be even worse.



Hmmm, this is what we have been telling these supporters of APC since.

Yet they blindly support an extremist.

I have always posit that BH may have started local, but the current insurgency has plethora of support from far and near. For the yanks, Canadians, British, French, Chinese and even Germans to be interested and involve in what's going on in a far desert enclave with no prospect of oil should be a subject for indept analysis. Don't tell me the are concern about some poor abducted girls (God bless their soul). It takes more than that to get the west involve otherwise Israel would have been receiving sanctions other than active support. Even with the deaths of women and children over there, the world choose to look the other way while the are being helplessly pounded. My opinion is, Nigeria called Africa's largest economy with large oil reserve and abundant natural resources is more of an enticing factor than any. A country touted as a rising power would appeal to the west more than the cry of 200 abducted girls in a rural village. When the Russian finally decide to get there fingers on the African pie, then you can be right assured that the soup will soon be all mixed up!

I just hope the 1billion dollars to be used for weapons against terrorism(boko haram) doesn't end up in the pockets of the damned gluttons in the government. I can't wait for light in this Nigeria's darkest hour, perhaps a little hault to civilian rule. Just saying!

Look at the comments... A bunch of western slaves truly do congregate on nairaland.

Now I myself won't claim to be someone who knows all things but I won't be quick to dismiss the analysis of the Russians.
After all some of the stuff the Russians raised in the article made sense.

At the end of the day Jonathan must thread wisely. We cannot trust the west, the Russians or the Chinese. We can still interact and make deals with these various nations but we must remain cautious while doing so.
We must remember that all nations work solely for their interests alone.

I'm not sure if you're somewhat lacking in reading comprehension, but this article was written by ONE MAN, and does not in anyway represent the official position of the Russian Federation. Why are you insinuating otherwise?

Boko Haram attacks are a large negative for the APC, they lose FAR more than you think they gain, so i have to question the sanity of anyone who tries to link Boko Haram to APC.

emk4lif: Not a fan of the APC but still the same rehashed accusations with little adduced evidence to back it up, I still believe Boko Haram is more religious than political, Shekau doesn't care whether you're PDP or APC, as long as you don't practice his own version of Islam, to him, you're an enemy. BH should be treated as the pure criminals they are and crushed.
very true but what the article says is that politicians are using the crisis to their advantage. PDP accusing the APC of complicity and APC accusing the PDP of incompetence while nobody wants to look at the true causes of the insurgency.

Russia too,
Forming analyst?
Why do people always like to hide behind one finger?

Everybody knows, that Boko Haram rampage is as a result of the incompetence of Nigerian government in dealing with a pimple that has now become a cancer.
When Boko haram bombed the UN office in Abuja, was it also an election year?

How is the topic of the thread misleading?
A pawn in the bigger picture? I guess those of you ranting didn't see the question sign.
The man was saying that it is possible that the west has a hand in boko haram activites. And it could be for political and economic gains. Why is English too difficult for some people to comprehend? Why??

PapaBrowne: Interesting, especially as its coming from Nekrassov!
His article shows in-depth knowledge of the rumbles in the Nigerian system unlike those western analysts whose perceptions of Nigeria are at best figment of their distorted imaginations of Nigeria.

I bet if his article were to finger PDP and the ruling government you would have disparaged and reined curses on this your now beloved Nekrassov! calling him all sorts of names like you guys did Isha Sesay. When will you guys wake up from this demented and obsessed profiling of the ever needed opposition in Nigerian politics? Unfortunately until the people who are in charge take BH for who they really are and stop chasing an opposition that is equally a victim of their carnage BH will reside with us for a very long time. Unless of course the PDP has much to gain from their eternal presence.

You are just one of few rational and objective thinker. BH have their own version of religion that if you don't believe you become victim. I was born and brought up in the north, an average muslim in north don't like BH activities and they are kicking against their evil deed. BH have killed both christians and muslims in the north, what will you say about lauching an attack in a market sqaure? were both muslims and christians do their transaction, and mind you majority of business men in the north are muslims. (Don't qoute me wrong some of them support BH).
