Boko Haram Insurgency Thriving in Nigeria Under Buhari -Aljazeera



According to an Aljazeera report, the Boko Haram insurgency is thriving in Nigeria under the current administration of President Muhammadu Buhari. 

The report also stressed the need for something urgent to be done to curb the menace of the insurgents. Excerpts:

This is not the Nigeria that Muhammadu Buhari promised us in the build-up towards the presidential election. Neither is it the one he promised after he had won.

In a nationally-televised speech, hours after his declaration as president-elect, Buhari had told Nigerians: "Boko Haram will soon know the strength of our collective will."

Fast-forward three months, and it instead looks as if it was the Boko Haram commander who directed that statement towards the Nigerian people.

In less than three months of Buhari's reign, the gory era of terrorism is back in Nigeria, and the insurgents are furiously striking the people again and again.
