#BREAKING: Boko Haram Backs Gen. Muhammadu Buhari For Presidency!

Am not sure this is the kind of endorsement GMB would want at this stage in his political career. Nigeria has been under siege by the Islamic sect Boko Haram in which GMB has been fingered severely as one of their major sponsors, which was also supported by some contradictory statements  credited to him on the operations of the sect.

The endorsement did not come as a surprise to many watchers of what has been going on in Nigeria regarding the activities of the sect Boko Haram.  Well over 20,000 innocent Nigerians have been killed by this sect since their war on the Nigerian State began 5 years ago.

The news is that the presidential candidate of the All Progressives’ Congress (APC), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), on Tuesday gained an unusual support as the Islamic Terrorist group in the Northeast, Boko Haram, pledged its total support for the former Nigeria military  Head of State.

Boko Haram, in a lengthy press statement circulated through email by its spokesperson and a copy made available to The Nation Newspaper, Abubakar Shekau, anchored its decision on the need to deliver Nigeria, especially the northern region, from the crunching effects of poverty, underdevelopment and insecurity.
 
 
The Islamic terrorist group also commended Buhari for proposing to stabilize the oil market and scrap the office of the First Lady - which it considered to be a drain on the nation’s resources and a conduit through which corrupt government officials stole across all levels of government.
It said, “Boko Haram has, upon careful consideration of the state of the nation, endorses and fully supports the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Gen. Mohammadu Buhari.
 
“Our decision to throw our full support on Gen. Mohammadu Buhari stems from the pathetic state in which the country has been put by the government of Goodluck Jonathan and our strong believe in Buhari as the man and change the country needs.
