Buhari Calling Boko Haram “our Brothers”, Just Insensitive – Nigerians by OsilamaPN(m): 10:22am On Jun 20, 2015 |
Many Nigerian have raised concerns over President Muhammadu Buhari’s Ramadan message, where he referred to the Boko Haram militants as “brothers.” During his message, he appealed to the perpetrators of violence and destruction in the name of Islam all over the world, to desist from tarnishing the name of the religion. “As we make collective efforts to bring to a permanent end the menace of the Boko Haram in the Lake Chad basin countries, let me use this auspicious occasion to appeal to our misguided brothers to drop their arms, embrace peace and seek a better understanding of Islam during this Holy period and beyond,” he said. Many Nigerian on social media, have opined that referring to Boko Haram, a notorious extremist sect, that has killed some 15, 000 Nigerians, injured and kidnapped thousands, and left millions displaced, as “our brothers” by President Buhari was very insensitive and a tad careless. “A genocidal Islamic terrorist group that destroys churches, massacres Christians and takes hundreds of girls as sex slaves over the years cannot be referred to as “misguided,” Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, said. “Muhammadu Buhari trades in a lot of Obamaesque chatter about building coalitions about Boko Haram, but the real coalition was always between Nigeria’s Muslim wannabe rulers and Boko Haram. “Those misguided genocidal child raping brothers of Muhammadu.” Greenfield added. Muhktar Dan’Iyan, popularly known as Mr Aye Dee, opined that President Buhari’s handlers must want his failure for them to allow the “brother” statement be released. "President Buhari's handlers are setting him up for failure, why else would they allow him to refer to Boko Haram as his 'Brothers?'" he said. Demola Olarewaju stated that Buhari calling Boko Haram “our brothers” was dangerous, as it would fuel Boko Haram sympathizers’ cause. "Our friends, The #BokoHaramVuvuzelas Will soon be chanting: "Boko Haram are our brothers!" #SighBuhari," he tweeted. Nigerians, who prior to the elections, had accused Buhari of being an Islamic fundamentalist, are saying that they have been vindicated. Many Nigerians queried as to why there was surprise at the “brothers” statement as... READ MORE: http://www.post-nigeria.com/buhari-calling-boko-haram-our-brothers-just-insensitive-nigerians/ |

I don't blame PMB if he refers to them as brothers because they are human and as a president, he must be careful with his choice of words. Refering to them as brothers doesn't mean he supports what they do. |

What's there about FTC? As we make collective efforts to bring to a permanent end the menace of the Boko Haram in the Lake Chad basin countries, let me use this auspicious occasion to appeal to our misguided brothers to drop their arms, embrace peace and seek a better understanding of Islam during this Holy period and beyond What else do I need to justify this epileptic act of Dogo Yaro one begin to ask onself questions about why he deployed navy to the south south and leave the northern part alone, a place known for terrorizing her people and displacing scores.

Yes, as President he should be careful with his chioce of words and that's why he shouldn't have called Boko haram memebers brothers unless he has some other relationship with them. Moreover, boko haram recruits its members from different countries even outside Africa. They are terrorist and that's the right word to use when speaking as president. FynBabe: |
