Over the past few weeks, the abduction of the school girls at Chibok, Borno State has underscored the threat we have been facing as a nation in recent times from the actions of misguided persons masquerading as adherents of Islam.
Our hearts are with families who have lost loved ones in this cycle of senseless violence. We also empathize with the parents of children whose daughters are in the custody of a group of anarchists. Continue...That horrific video posted on the Internet is a clear manifestation of the mindlessness of the bigots. It shows them for whom they are, such men cannot threaten nor should they be allowed to violate our sovereignty. It is clear from what they profess that they are not followers of God. They do not mean well for our country and her citizens. I am a Muslim, I am versed in the teaching of Christianity and I understand both religions to seek peaceful co-existence of all humanity.
I wish to reiterate that there is no justification whatsoever for this unrestrained disregard for the sanctity of human life. It has no place in the Holy Quran and neither does it have a place in the Holy Bible.
Let these people know that the entire civilized world is united against their terrorist act. We are grateful to the world for standing by Nigeria at this trying time. We hope and pray that the young ladies will be reunited with their respective families in the days to come.
While the Federal Government and the nation’s Armed Forces are working to ensure citizens’ safety under the present situation, we believe that more could still be done to ensure the safety of Nigerians and the Nigerian nation. We are therefore glad that the Federal Government has accepted international support in the search for the missing girls and for an end to the insurgency in parts of the country.
I fought for a united Nigeria. In my old age, I want my grand children, your grand children, our youths and indeed all Nigerians to benefit from a prosperous and united country devoid of sectarian violence whether home grown or imposed on us from outside.
Now is not the time to play politics. Now is also not the time to trade blames and amplify our ideological differences. The unity of Nigeria is not negotiable and nothing should divide us as a people. I therefore urge all Nigerians at home and in the Diaspora to support the country in her effort to bring an end to this attack on defencelesscitizens and indeed a united nation.
We must put aside all other considerations and ensure that our country Nigeria pulls together now so as to recover our sovereignty. After all, we all know that Nigeria is the ONLY country we have that we can call our own.
God help and bless Nigeria.
Thank you.
GENERAL MUHAMMADU BUHARI, GCFR

Pls what video are u talking about. Share a link pls
Olaleye Adisa, I tire for you. Are you heartless or you have selective blindness. How can you just read a comment and accept it word for word. Haven't u heard dat actions speak louder than words.
Questions:
1. When did Boko Haram begin bombing churches places and Nigerians plus some foreigners(UN)?
2. How many times did Buhari condemn Boko Haram and their actions?
3. When were the Chibok girls kidnapped?
4. When did Buhari condemn the kidnapping of these girls?
5. Why did it take the international community to come to Nigeria before Buhari has ever made any condemnation of Boko Haram?
My own answer, is that it is too much of a coincidence that your Beloved Buhari is condemning Boko Haram for the first time in years. Maybe he is scared of spending the rest of his life in the world court tribunal. America, France and UK in small Borno!!!! It's a guarantee that both the sponsors and perpetrators of all the previous acts within Nigeria are going to be held accountable for genocide irrespective of their present or previous positions of Authority in small Nigeria. They could afford to trample on President Goodluck and mock Dame Patience but now The Big Boys are here (USA, UK & France). The Killers of all Tyrants eg Osama, Ghadaffi etc. So their own na small (Boko Haram and their Sponsors). No matter where they run to, they will be caught and brought to justice. They are finished, ha ha ha ha ha ha......
North this, north that, I dey laugh una. For Raul who says nothing good comes out of the north, we agree but don't forget that the bulk of what you eat na from north sha. And as for those wen want division make una start to buy a lot of food things in bulk o! Cause after the division nothing for una! Christianity preaches against judging others, bearing false witness, etc but the christains on this blog thrive on doing these! So it is either the xtians on this blog have no regard for God and his commands or its a lie the bible doesn't preach thus. Which one izit?
Anon please talk with facts.Alot of us come on blogs and talk without thinking.Just becus his Muslim does. Not Make him Boko haram.Pls let's choose our words well.Nobody knows who is behind bk,if ur. So sure go to the press and voice out.
You are lucky Nigeria is a Nation with a weak President and a docile citizenry if not you wont have the guts to come and mock us in this manner.You said it loud and clear that you will make the country "ungovernable"if you don't win the elections.This boko haram menace started immediately the election results were declared and you lost,did you come out to caution your "bigots" then....No Sir,you supported and even most likely sponsored them.Please stop insulting our collective intelligence....and know this the rot of Allah will fall heavily on you and all your power drunk and bloody thirty politicians #born to rule things#
'These not This' when using plural.
BUHARI YOUR GENERATION WILL CURSE YOU FOR THE CURSES YOUR THIRST FOR POWER WILL BRING THEM AND THEIR GENERATIONS, FOR EVERY BLOOD SHED BY BOKO HARAM YOUR GENERATION WILL LOOSE,! God does not sleep! You publicly said that the country will be ungovernable if Jonathan wins and you are living up to it. Petitions will be written against you until the international community has no choice but to probe your matter. You will never bepresident! Lucifer!

General Buhari,this is the first time ever,when u are trying to slate BH.But i'm sorry,it's rather late because Retribution is here ...and there will be no hiding place,for anyone that has ever funded them
LINDA pls post this o!
I am disturbed that the Western world is blaming GEJ for the situation in the North despite that the North has held power for a longer time than the South. That even the President State of Bayelsa is not better because of the neglect over the years of the hen that lays the golden egg. More worrisome is the increasing propaganda by the West especially USA against the GEJ administration. Is there something brewing?
I will not be deceived at all.... I remember 9/11 when Osama bin laden condemned the hijacking and bombing and later celebrated the successful attack by his so called "brothers" mujahideen as they are referred to in that "religion of piss."
Finally started condemning bh in public, u got me worried at some point!
Wat is d solution if u hav 1. Idiot
May God attack all those who are behind boko haram attacks .We know u all and we are watching to see ur end...it shall be more shameful than the ones u have put ur victims through. U shed innocent blood because of politics...there is God.
YOU KILLED THEM BUHARI, ATIKU ALL OF YOU.
His excellency, please cut them down now. I strongly believe that you can plan a strategies to trap Boko bastard down.

Exactly.

It's unfortunate Nigerians have refused to look beyond religion and ethnicity in carrying out their business or living their lives. Our government is inept in handling our security and tackling corruption. Our government is made up of hausa, yoruba, igbo, south/south and every other ethnic divide...there are christians and Muslims also involved in this delusion of a government. they don't care about us the 'common' man. Buhari even though he may face some hiccups from NASS and other democratic institution could actually be the best thing that happens to Nigerians....we are so indisciplined and everyone acts with so much impunity....its ridiculous. Please hold your government responsible for the insecurity in our land...it's because of the massive corruption in the system stemming from our government that has made it possible for BH to thrive.
No mind am jare! Na now he know say dem be terrorists.
Before he was asking for amnesty for BK.
Not negotiable my ass!
I can see the readers here prefer Gossip to reality, bunch of fools calling Buhari BH sponsor, I guess they are predominantly IGBO and South South. You are blinded by ethnicity, not knowing that GEJ and Dame are the worst thing that ever happened to this country. My country is now an object of mockery on CNN, and globally, all because of blinded vote for someone without any pedigree. Truly "God will see us", bunch of fools.
Buhari u are the coz of bokoharam .if to says i am the president i could have arrested u life in prison to avoid destruction
