Boko Haram is not IRA, different ideologies, different culture, different environment.

Obasanjo goofed and Boko has said that much by this recent murder of Obasanjo's host.

On the other hand, the main purpose of terrorism is the use of fear as a means to whatever end, and Boko albeit muslims are achieving their purpose through this strategy. Now the whole world seems to be afraid of Muslims, many people are joining islam to escape their terror, and in Nigeria many are patronizing Boko out of fear.
Obasanjo's trip may have been out of fear. And majority of the posts supporting Obasanjo may actually be a reflection of same fear.

I support Wole Soyinka on this one.

My brother, I think you are right, but  I want to add that on the other way round OBJ,s visit was a strategy to eliminate the idiot whose father moh,h Yusuf destroyed many lives and property, and the idiot son turn to demand for apology and N100m from Nigerians they have been terrorising and agonising. Can you imagin the stupid fool. Let him come back and collect the N100m  and enjoy with his 7 virgins in his so called paradise.

It baffles ones imagination, that at this time and age people still take Wole Soyinka silly statements serious, You guys should wake up.

OBJ took a bold step which he Soyinka and the likes of Sultan,IBB,Buhari and their cohorts couldn't dare and some silly elements come here to redicule that brave move in finding solution to malignant problem.

Wole is a talker and writer,that's where it ends. Shekina!

Why should anyone be negotiating with a gang of killers and terrorists? Did they say they were ready for peace? Do you want the use of violence as a means of expressing your grievance to become the standard in Nigeria?

In any case, OBJ has said he didn't go there to negotiate but to learn about the group. So what new thing has he learnt? The days ahead will tell.
