Meanwhile, Shaffa is about 4 kilometres drive from Azare, the headquarters of Hawul, which is located in the south and approximately 200 kilometres from Maiduguri, the state capital.
A lot of drama has unfolded in the course of federal government fight against Boko Haram, a lot of innocent people have reportedly died, as well as most of the sect members, but the most recent and shocking one is the sentencing to death of 12 out of the 18 soldiers standing trial for attempted murder and mutiny in Maimalari cantonment, Maiduguri, Borno State capital.
The issue of insurgency has also become a political tool as our various party leaders have resulted to passing blames on their party instead of addressing it. Just recently a former governor was indicted over sponsoring the terrorists group but the federal government is yet to come up with something tangible to weld the axe on the terrorist group and its sponsors.
Meanwhile, on August 28, 2014, ex-Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and a Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Nasir El-Rufai had accused Ali Modu Sheriff and Gen. Ihejirika of being Boko Haram sponsors.
