If only the so called nothern 'elders' will bring back all the dead courtesy of BH, unbomb all the already bombed areas by BH and bring the nation back to the condition it was before BH then and only then will I suggest that Nigerians not Buhari should consider a pardon with HEAVY fine. If they can't do that, may Almighty God HEAVILY punish all those clamoring for amnesty for Boko Haram.

We know that already.
That was Buhari's disposition.
They will grant amnesty to Boko Haram, host them dinner at Aso Rock. rebuild their homes and put them on salary.

then, if there is an armed robbery incident at Enugu or Warri, they may send a battalion to wipe out the entire community.

The game is on...
