It’s a welcome development that the new crop of Boko haram sprouting in Ibadan,Oyo state has been nipped in its bud without hesitation.Bravo also to the Muslim al- ummas who exposed their nefarious activities ranging from dehumanization,sadistic slavery and likes to the public glare.It’s high time we Nigerians rose to our billings and saved our country from total peril.
