Leader of the Boko Haram terrorist group, Abubakar Shekau, has said his group was responsible for the kidnap of 333 students of the Government Science Secondary school, Katsina last Friday.
In a 4:30 audio message sent to daily Nigerian, on Tuesday morning, the leader of Boko Haram terrorists group, Shekau, said his group abducted the schoolboys because Western education is against the tenets of Islam.
“What happened in Katsina was done to promote Islam and discourage un-Islamic practices as Western education is not the type of education permitted by Allah and his Holy Prophet.

“They are also not teaching what Allah and his Holy Prophet commanded. They are rather destroying Islam. It may be subtle, but Allah the Lord of the skies and earths knows whatever is hidden. May Allah promote Islam. May we die as Muslims.
“In a nutshell, we are behind what happened in Katsina,” he said.
The Boko Haram group according to the Federal Government has been technical defeated and decimated.
However, the group has continued to unleash terror on innocent Nigerians especially in the Northeast where no day goes by without some killings and destruction carried out by the terrorist group.
