Boko Haram: ‘Don’t play into terrorists’ hands’ – APC tells religious, political leaders
The All Progressives Congress has advised religious, political and traditional leaders not to play into the hands of Boko Haram.Noting that the sect is a common enemy, the APC said public commentaries on Boko Haram, bandits, and other criminals were assuming a dangerous slant, influenced by selfish partisan narratives by groups and individuals.
“Violent extremists and terrorists all over the world would adopt desperate tactics by selecting soft targets for their barbaric and opportunistic attacks”, it said. “We must not fall for this divisive ploy. In our respective spaces, we should understand that these violent extremists are our common enemies, and are blind to religious and political affiliation and socio-economic status.
“Doing otherwise will be acting the scripts and playing into the hands of these fanatics seeking to divide us and pitch us against each other.
