    Alhaji Mohammed Adoke,the Attorney General of the Federation justifies Boko Haram attack on Police and security instllations because of Police extra-judicial execution.How could he ever justify Boko Haram's attacks on Christians and the bombings of Christians' places of worship? This Alhaji Mohammed Adoke's justification for Boko Haram campaign of mass murder goes a long way to buttress the President's statement that they are Boko Haram within his cabinet.The Attorney General and Minister of Jusice,Alhaji Mohammed Adoke,is indeed one of them.The other is the President's deputy,Alhaji Namadi Sambo,who directed Senator Ali Ndume to offer logistics to the Boko Haram terrorists and to direct their operations. Nigerians are aware of the fact that our security and law enforcerment gencies are firmly under the control of the Hausa/Fulani muslims.For every 3 police officers,two are Hausa/Fulani muslims.Thanks to Alhaji Abdulsalami Abubakar's Constitutional Provision for Federal gobbledy gook of Character.Police extra-judicial execution is indeed the handwork of the Hausa/Fulani muslims who dominate our Police and Armed Forces.They all believe that they are on jihad and their victims are usually infidel Christians. Though justice is supposed to be blind,but under Alhaji Mohammed Adoke stewardship,justice in Nigeria is for sale and always it goes to the highest bidder. Under normmal circumsatances Alhaji Mohammed Adoke should have had the boot for refusing to appeal the ICJ decision on Bakassi Peninsula.Perhaps he got some money bags from those Nigerian ex-Generals who own oil wells in Bakassi.

    Mr. Dougmel, do you really believe up till now that Boko Haram is a Muslim vs. Christian war. Have you paid any attention at all of the high profile deaths that have occurred as well as deaths of police officers who are mostly Hausa and Fulani like you said. Please try to wake up to the reality we are facing. I will hope that you do so for your sake and the sake of the society here. It seems that you are pushing really hard for a holy war.
