"It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it." –Eleanor Roosevelt

Currently

  • Corrupt Government
  • Help from private organizations - Education
  • Military taking action

Who?

The persecutors are a radical Islamic Sect that goes by the name 'Boko Haram', which translates to 'Western Education is a Sin'.

They seek to restore a caliphate and create a 'pure' Islamic state, heavily enforcing Shari'a Law.

Legality

The Nigerian government is obliged to stop these terrorists because of the universal right of religious freedom and because it is violating their own law. By forcing Christians to follow Islamic belief and by being intolerant, they violate sections in the constitution made in 1999.
