The Acting Director, Army Public Relations of the Nigerian Army, Col Sagir Mus, has alleged that Boko Haram attacks in Nigeria are being sponsored by the international community.

He reportedly stated that Boko Haram attack are being instigated by the international community who wants  to “cut Nigeria to size” and that some international paymasters are sponsoring it.

In an article published on Wednesday, December 2 following the tragic beheading of over 40 rice farmers in Borno State on November 28.

“The recent killing of our people on a rice farm in Borno State was unexpected, inhuman, cowardly, dastardly and sadistic cruelty by the Boko Haram terrorists.

There is no normal human being that will take pleasure in such inhuman massacre of defenceless and armless civilians, working on their farms; but that is the nature of terrorism and those who sponsor it.

There is an international conspiracy to cut Nigeria to size and compromise national renegades making attempts to destabilise and dismember Nigeria if possible in subservience to the international paymasters, who are the owners of Boko Haram. They train them, arm them, finance them and supply their logistics.” The article reads.

Musa alleged that Boko Haram would have been completely defeated if they were not financed by the international communities.
