According to US-based online military news agency, StrategyPage, the Cameroon government has accused Nigerian Muslim clerics living in the border towns of Cameroon and Nigeria are recruiting Boko Haram members in their mosques.
Part of the Magazine article read, "Cameroon is also concerned about pro-Boko Haram clerics from Nigeria quietly preaching and recruiting for Boko Haram in Cameroon mosques.
"Islamic conservative clergy are not unusual on either side of the border, but those who do not denounce Boko Haram are suspected of quietly recruiting young men to join the “jihad” (struggle) and fight (and often die) in Nigeria. These preachers have to recruit quietly because otherwise police in Cameroon will arrest and deport them, sometimes after a vigorous interrogation. Evidence of this recruiting is showing up when some of the recruits return from Nigeria with tales of disillusionment and adversity while with Boko Haram".
Government officials in North Eastern Nigerian states which include Adamawa, Yobe and Borno have also been accused of collaborating with terrorists and accepting bribes from them. The magazine also claimed that these new allegations were the reason why the the army wants governors in the affected states removed.
