Come out clean and tell Nigerians the status of BH but they continued lying.

Few years back it were them killing Christians and their apologists would always shout "Allahu Akbar" or "Alhamdullai".

How these moslems derive so much enjoy seeing Christian blood spilled is what I don't understand.

Unfortunately, the chickens are going home to roost, the blood of christians have turned bitter in the mouth of their blood sucking cretin.

Allahu Akbar!!! BOOM!!!

This is Nigeria!!!

Sometimes I feel nairaland is heavily pro government or under seige.

As long as they kill only their muslim folks I don't give a fvck. Foolish Northerners!
They created Boko haram, refused to tame it, and when it became a monster they even frustrated the previous government's effort to subdue them just because they wanted to rule the cursed country.
Truly the evil that men do live with them. My only concern is the amount of money from the Niger Delta that is being used to settle these terrorists and their sponsors.
The North have commercialized the fight against Boko Haram.

Oneday this British estate will disintegrate and this nonsense will come to an end cus the Niger Delta has nothing in common with these fools. Why should you come to my land, take my resources, give me a peanut, and still lord over me.
There can never be peace in Nigeria until there is justice and those who are responsible for the injustice in this cursed nation will be consumed by it directly or indirectly.
Call me whatever you like, you are entitled to your wrong opinion.

I noticed that.

Now we have a failed region within a country. The earlier we leave this doomed people up north, the better for all of us down South!! The north is gone, nothing can save it again. There wicked leaders brought it upon themselves when they blocked every attempt to educate and emancipate their people now we have tens of millions of illiterate almajiris who are now an inexhaustible pool of manpower for Boko Haram, Al Quida and other Islamic terrorist groups. I don't see an end to it, rather it will continue to get worse with spill over getting to us here in the South if we don't cut these guys off!! What a useless region!!!

Buhari since he came to office have been paying Boko haram ransom fees in millions of euros.This is direct sponsorship terrorism.

We in the South are in real danger if we continue to share a nation with savages who have refused to evolve over the ages. The north has a very bleak future and I shiver when I imagine where these guys are going to be in few years to come. The best thing for us, especially the predominant Christian East is to have a different country and build a high wall at the northern border with them otherwise I see serious trouble going forward. The is going to be another terrorist haven and would be more dangerous than the traditional terrorist enclaves like Somalia, Afghanistan and Kashmir. Even Abuja won't be safe in a few years time if things continue the way they are, and they are likely to continue because nothing serious is being done to save that region and the truth is that they don't even want to be saved. It's like trying to stop someone who has made up their mind on committing suicide, a pure waste of time.

same reason they thought GEJ was kicked out of office......now everyone is either quiet or justifying the current security situation

@UN
@ICC

Arrest the Aso Rock Sudanese terrorist and save innocent lives.

Abdulrecession Aminu Jubrin has been training, equipping and deploying his boys to unleash mayhem on innocent people.
