Ex Minister of state for defence and current nominee for a
minister position, Musiliu Obanikorohas blamed Northern leaders for the
Boko Haram insurgency.
He said that if Northern leaders had invested in education in the region, the insurgency would have not existed.
Obanikoro said this during the inauguration of a civic centre built by a member of the House of Representatives, Abiodun Akinlade, at the Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro, Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State.
He said: “We have Boko Haram today because the leaders of that section of the country did not invest in their education.
“President Goodluck Jonathan is already addressing this by constructing 123 almajiri schools in four years.”
He then praised President Goodluck Jonathan and noted that there was relative peace in South-West because late Chief Obafemi Awolowo, invested in the education of his people.
The Boko Haram Insurgency has ravaged the nation since 2009, killing over 5000 people and displacing many in North East Nigeria.
