Boko Haram Takes Responsibility For Katsina Schoolboys’ Abduction, Denies Negotiating With Nigerian Govt
Terrorist group, Boko Haram, on Tuesday claimed responsibility for the abduction of over schoolboys.
Boko Haram, however, said it had not entered into negotiations with Nigerian government contrary to claims by the authorities.
The terror group’s leader, Abubakar Shekau, stated this in a recording released on Tuesday morning and obtained by HumAngle.
Like in the case of the abduction of the over 200 Chibok schoolgirls in 2014, Shekau in his latest recording said the dastardly act was done in order to discourage people from obtaining western education.
“What happened in Katsina was done to promote Islam and discourage un-Islamic practices as Western education is not the type of education permitted by Allah and his Holy Prophet.
“They are also not teaching what Allah and his Holy Prophet commanded. They are rather destroying Islam. It may be subtle, but Allah the Lord of the skies and earths knows whatever is hidden. May Allah promote Islam. May we die as Muslims. In a nutshell, we are behind what happened in Katsina.”
