Why Boko Haram Is Gaining Ground In Nigeria – Emir Sanusi

Speaking in Auchi, Edo State at the closing ceremony of the 29th National Quranic Recitation,  Emir of Kano,  Muhammadu Sanusi II, said the first responsibility of the state was to protect lives and property of its citizens or it loses the basis for its existence. He noted that the continued vicious attacks by Boko Haram and why the country was losing territories to the deadly militant sect was because Nigeria had become a weak state.
“Insurgents’ takeover of some areas in Borno, killing about 2000 people in Baga is a sign that the Nigerian state is weak. But we can’t keep quiet while people are being killed, we must fight to make sure our religion is not distorted but the state must protect us,” he said.
He called on the federal government to finish of Boko Haram.Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states or any other parts of the country still under  the deadly sect  must be liberated, he said .
The Emir however called on the people to stop running from the terrorists whom he said were projecting Islamic religion in an ungodly manner.
“If your enemy comes to attack you and you run away, Allah will not help you,” he said while calling on Muslims to defend themselves against terrorists.
  He also commended the people who killed the terrorists who attacked the Jumat Mosque in Kano last year.
