LEADER of the Hausa community in Akwa Ibom State, Alhaji Hassan Sadauki has said that good governance can end the threat posed by the Boko Haram insurgents.
Sadauki said in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Uyo on Thursday that the terror experienced in some parts of the country was the product of perceived injustice and bad governance.
“There is the problem of insecurity of food, education, employment, shelter and health in the country.
“The inability of our leaders to provide the citizens with the basic necessities of life is the reason for frustration and the crisis,” he said.
He urged those in leadership positions in the country to make policies that would improve the living conditions of the people.
Alhaji Sadauki denied the allegation that the Boko Haram sect was against Western education, saying: “Most of them have Western education.”
He however appealed to the insurgents to embrace dialogue as a means of resolving the crisis, saying that confrontation has never been a solution to any crisis.
