It behooves the more sophisticated political leaders of Islamic states to promote the idea that they oppose groups such as al- Qaeda, the Islamic State (ISIS) and Boko Haram (a faction of which pledged allegiance to ISIS), but in many cases there are well-documented connections. All subscribe to the Islamic fiqh that sanctions both violent jihad and stealth jihad in furthering the goal of the conquest of infidels. And now:
The Nigerian government is “aiding and abetting” the deadly Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram by releasing captured militants who have “repented”.
According to human rights activist Stephen Enada, the Nigerian government appears to be “paying lip service to the terrorist group.” The Nigerian government is stealthily aiding the jihadist group while putting on a show for those who prefer to believe the propaganda of Islamic supremacists.

Before giving his call for prayer to those gathered at the Chinese Community Church in Chinatown, Enada sat down with The Christian Post to speak about the ongoing persecution of Nigerian Christians. Boko Haram in northeast Nigeria and radicalized Fulani attacks targeting Christian villages and farms in the Middle Belt have killed thousands this year.
“It has been explained away by the government that Boko Haram has been decimated,” Enada, co-founder of the International Committee on Nigeria, explained. “But that is not true because most of the attacks on soft targets are still going on.”
The Nigerian military has claimed that it has completely “defeated” Boko Haram, a radical Islamic insurgency that began in 2009 and has killed tens of thousands of Christians and others across Nigeria, Chad, Niger and northern Cameroon, and forced about 2 million to flee…..
