D pple of dis country don't get d msg d government claim dat they kill BH member everyday, arrested so many but nothing came out of d interrogation where is kabiru sokoto and odas. If dey kill so many BH member as dey claim y is d group still growing strange day by day nigerian army av kill more Dan enough member of d group. But there is only one reason for dat which is some one some where is laying, the pple dey r killing are innocent pple. The only military president we ever had in dis country said and I quote "any insurgent dat lasted for more than 24hrs the government has hand in it" BH has lasted for more Dan 5yrs. Can a single soul hold the entire country into hostage. Pls let set aside r difference and unite against dis insurgent. A word dey say is enough for d wise
