Spy chiefs have warned David Cameron that al-Qaeda is determined to make Nigeria a base for plotting terror attacks on the West.
Radical Islamic groups in the West African nation are dramatically stepping up their campaign, security sources said.
Boko Haram – whose name means “Western education is sinful” – wants Sharia law in the mostly Muslim, oil-rich country, where half of people live in poverty.
The group boasts its jihadists are ready to make the country ungovernable and bombings by “the Nigerian Taliban” have already killed hundreds.
One British official said: “There are dozens of flights every day from Lagos to London. We either help stop the terrorists here, or we will be dealing with them on the streets of Britain.” :“What they need is sustained commitment to peace, democr The UK has said it will increase aid but Catholic agency CAFOD saidacy and good government. They need foreign companies to create jobs, not take resources''.
To tackle this Boko Haram issue, WHAT DO WE NEED PRESENTLY?..........is it sustained commitment to peace,democracy and good governance or Increased aid?

That is one major thing that irritates me with the western world. Most od these countries are so selfish. If it's come into Nigeria and suck all the oil out, they will fly over here in a heartbeat. But when it comes to helping create jobs and help the leaders ensure safety, they will be playing a hide-and-seek game. Then you will no longer see them. This is the time to act, NOW. Now that they have found al qaeda's motives in Nigeria, begin now to end this once and for all. PLZZZ

OIL SUCKERS ARE HUNGRY FOR NIGERIAN OIL, NOW THEY ARE MAKING A PLAN BY MAKING A FALSE ALLEGATION (S). CIA TOLD THE WHOLE WORLD THAT SADDAM HUSSEIN HAS WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION, WHICH WAS THE REASON FOR INVADING THAT COUNTRY. AFTER THE INVASION IS OVER, AND ALL THE OIL WELLS BECOME UNDER FULL CONTROL OF THE UNITED STATES, SADDAM WAS KILLED AND TO DATE, NO SIGN OF WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION COULD BE SEEN. A CLEAR HYPOCRISY. IT IS ALL THE FAULT OF THE BOKO SUCKERS. GOD SAVE NIGERIA.

Not necessarily that only Nigerians has hands in our domestic problems. There must be an outsider's hands for sure.

Nigeria is not "mostly muslim! As a matter of fact, the number of Christians in Nigeria outnumber that of muslim..
However, there are majority of muslims in the northern part...so, if the really want sharia law they can do it up north, the south don't want it as we do not live under the shadow of islam, AND WILL NEVER incase you are one of them!
