Lagos- With Boko Haram threatening to continue to attack, the UN
has declared that Nigeria is not fit enough to stop the Islamic group on
its own, reports Naij.
The
United Nations (UN) envoy, Hiroute Sellassie, stated that Nigeria
should accept the fact that they cannot stop Boko Haram alone. This is a
comment that comes after the Nigeria government has given an interdict
to the UN as well as the African Union (AU) to help stop the
insurgencies.
The
Nigeria government stated that they would handle the attacks without
any help. Moreover, the latest development has shown that the presidency
has welcomed international help, and stated that it is important for
multinational forcegets support required to fight the threats through
global partners.
About 13,000 people have been killed at the hands of the Islamic militants and about more than one million homeless since 2009.
