Abstract
Western education is a sin! What does that mean to you? It's the definition of ‘Boko Haram’, the Islamist group of which I, Abul Qaga, am the spokesman. The group, founded in 2002 by Muhammad Yusuf in Maiduguri, capital of Borno State in north-eastern Nigeria, has been making a name for itself in Africa and throughout the world. Its original name in Arabic is Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati Wal-Jihad (the Congregation of the People of Tradition for Proselytism and Jihad).
We do not beat around the bush. Our goal? The application of Sharia law throughout Nigeria. How do we go about it? Through kidnappings, bombings and suicide attacks aimed at the United Nations, churches and symbols of the federal government such as police stations.
