Boko Haram: Umar faults calls on southerners to return home – Punch

The former military governor of Kaduna State and Chairman of the Movement for Unity and Progress, Colonel Abubakar Umar (retd) on Saturday faulted the calls by southern leaders on their kinsmen resident in the North to leave the region due to the incessant attacks on them by the militant Islamic sect, the Boko Haram.

Umar, in a three-page statement made available to newsmen in Kaduna, warned that any mass exodus of Nigerians from their places of residence in the southern and northern parts of the country to their places of origin was tantamount to giving in to the Boko Haram threat.
