BH thrives because Nigerians aligns with them, directly or indirectly we did. This can be better understood if considered in retrospect, just a quick look at the past.

To Christians, it was a perfect tool to tarnish Islam as a religion of blood sucking vampires

To Muslims, it was Jihad at launch, no skin pain about the slaughter of acclaimed non-believers who of cause were their first targets
To Northerners, BH by default executed the task of making the country ungovernable as a form of retribution for their stolen mandate. They were perceived as the militant wing of the North. With distress I remember how media houses were even rebuked for branding BH terrorists. Daily Trust in particular was at the forefront in the campaign to debunk BH as terrorists, how sad.

To Southerners, the North can carry on killing their kit and kin as long as they remain in their enclaves

To the military high command it was just the perfect opportunity to build sky scrapers

To opposition parties, mainly the APC it was the perfect campaign tool to ridicule the govt in power and so they enjoyed the carnage

To the govt in power BH was used to induce pity and point accusing fingers, so they wailed and waited

And 6years down the line our arguments, conversations and thoughts still tilts towards similar trend.
Dare to gaze deeply into the future, i did and i see the masterminds of BH use them as a tool to negotiate our core values away, the very essence of our existence as Africans. That's what troubles my mind. May God save us from the monsters we made to flourish

You and who?

Forget what the people or parties think. It's no excuse for the government if they can't guarantee the security of the people that put them in power. For every life lost the government should be held accountable.

Hmmm May GOD save us from these monsters.

Good points by the Op no doubt but you failed to include the Nigeria media in the vicious circle.

Boko haram enjoys unlimited and unfettered coverage from the media at no cost. The act of propaganda as a tool of war is being fully utilized by the dreaded group.


Foreign media outlet like AFP is always quick to broadcast Shekau's video, while local media are ready to sensationalize his speech and make it a front page topic.


Sadly, we are all unwilling accomplice in the sordid boko haram imbroglio ...

Your list is incomplete if you don't include the victims of the insugents. They have their own defination of BH too.

They see the terror, they defines it better.

Life is good here, baby come over

When GEJ and Ihejirika were ready to wipe out these virgin-seeking bàstards, Dùllardinho and the northern elites cried foul and said "an attack on Boko Haram is an attack against the north." So they should enjoy their creations. You created a beast, it'll consume you.
