Boko Haram: Who Pays The Piper?


Boko Haram: Who Pays The Piper?


  It was the year 2002, a Muslim scholar Mohammed Yusuf ignited a flame, the flame of Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati Wal-Jihad (people committed to the propagation of the prophet's teachings and jihad). While the name might sound strange to many, Boko haram will not be strange to citizens or aliens.  The flame is now the wild fire that has consumed ferociously our peace, in the Northern Nigeria and mocked our government. While we precariously had the former in most parts of the country, the latter is a constant occurrence we don’t need a terrorist group to point out. Our government is a toothless bulldog, a clawless cat and a fangless snake. Clueless and useless.
