Bokoharam has been defeated. Those ones still carrying attack are from Libya - Elrufai

After defeating Boko Haram, clearing the Sambisa forest, capturing Shekau' Koran and hoisting his flag in the Presidential Villa by Mr. President himself? How many time do we have to defeat this Boko Haram? He who lives by propaganda will die under the weight of his own propaganda.

The best buhari government can do to stop this Boko Haram bombings is look for 2/3 Northern states that are die hard moslem and give it to Boko Haram to declare their Islamic state and adopt their Sharia law, after all formal Zamfara state governor Yerima started the agitation and introduced Sharia in some northern states today before the existence of Boko Haram. Nigeria can loose those states, after all we lost oil rich Bakassi to Cameroon and nothing happened. Instead of hoisting Shelkau's flag and Quran in Aso rock and making him an important figure. We have lost so much people in the hands of those insurgents.
