BREAKING: Boko Haram fuelled by unemployment, hunger, poverty — Buhari

 

The Boko Haram insurgency in Northern Nigeria is largely fuelled by youth unemployment, hunger and poverty, Nigeria’s President  Muhammadu Buhari has said.

Buhari said this in an interview with Arise TV.

The Nigerian leader said he believes his government has done a lot to fight the terrorists but the problem in the “North-East is very difficulty.”

He said he believes the majority of the Boko Haram members are Nigerians after being told so by the Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum.
