Boko Haram and the continued existence of Nigeria

Boko Haram which means western education is sin, is an islamic sect which  is calling for the islamization of Northern Nigeria against the wishes of Nigerians. This group  was formed in Borno state by the government of the state to achieve political point against their political opponents.
After using the group to oppress political opponents, rig and win elections for the government, the government find it very difficult to disband the group, Thereby allowing the group to grow out of control and becoming a monster to the state. Shortly after the group extend their base to other states of northern nigeria thereby causing serious security challenge to Nothern nigerian and indeed the entire nation.
In 2009 the founder of the group was killed by members of the Nigeria Police force after he was captured by the military and handed over to the  police force.  As the day goes  by  the sects started attacking and killing christians even burning churches thereby making their agitation looks like a religious war between christians and muslim.
However my worry is that if Nigeria can still remain as one or  we go back to 1914 the Amalgamattion of the northern and southern protectorate. Nigerians Please  be WARNED!!


God Bless Nigeria
