International Group That Wants To Destroy Nigeria Is Behind Boko Haram Terrorism — Buhari

[SAHARAREPORTERS] President Muhammadu Buhari has queried the origin of the Boko Haram

...Nigeerian Islamist group, formerly paying homage to al-Qaeda, then, when the money ran out, to the Islamic State, and headed by nutcase Abu Bakr Shekau. Once he exploded in a gunfight with ISWAP, many in the group surrendered to the govt and others went with their new overlords. The remainder are a shell of their former selves, stmbling glassy-eyed and lonely through the Sambisa Forest and the soothing waters of Lake Chad, asking themselves What is truth?, or maybe just I wonder what's for dinner? I hope it's not rhinocerous again! ...
terrorism in Nigeria, noting that it appears that there are international elements that want to destroy Nigeria.

Buhari who rode to power in 2015 on the basis of fighting insurgency as the former military general, raised the concerns on Monday in Kano State during a lunch held in his honour at Government House.

He alleged that some foreign elements were suspected to be part of the conspiracy by using Boko Haram to destroy the country.

Buhari, who overthrew an elected president in a coup d'etat on December 31, 1983, lamented, "it is unfortunate that Boko Haram stopped the country from tapping its resources in Lake Chad Basin. We have shown Nigerians and the rest of the world that we have so many natural resources."

He recalled how Boko Haram bully boyz took over the control of 17 Local Government Areas in Borno State out of the 27 local governments.

"Half of Yobe State was in the hands of Boko Haram. I suspect there is an international group that wants to destroy Nigeria, if not how can Western education be haram?" he queried.

"We fight for our land from the groups that are trying to destroy Nigeria, but we are very lucky. I am very happy that Nigerians showed me support, they identified with me and I identified with them also," he added.
