Hope this isn`t another "boko-haram" in the making??

Buhari don buy market.
He has no choice but to sack buratai. The flimsy excuse of blocking the road does to equate into the punishment of killing 400 people.
Unlike most people, I think this is just an extension of sunni -shiite animosity in the middle east.
One thing for sure is that Nigeria remains on the brink. Paraphrasing the former US ambassador to Nigeria.
