Former Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro has said that Northern Leaders contributed to Boko Haram because they did not invest in their education and President Goodluck Jonathan is providing a solution to that.
Obanikoro made this statement during the inauguration of a civic centre built by a member of the House of Representatives, Abiodun Akinlade, at the Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro, Yewa South Local Government Area of Ogun State.
He said “We have Boko Haram today because the leaders of that section of the country did not invest in their education.
“President Goodluck Jonathan is already addressing this by constructing 123 almajiri schools in four years.”
He added that there was peace in the South-west when the former Premier of the Western Region, Chief Obafemi Awolowo invested in education of south west indigenes.
