The suspect was born and brought up in Maiduguri, Borno State, where he was converted to Islam.

Even if a suspect's name is Obama Clinton or Angela Sarkozy, as long as he oe she is a Muslim, He or she is a potential terrorist.

THe trend is becoming alarming. I think the name has to do with violence
