Catholic Archbishop of Jos queries America's help in fight against Boko Haram

The Catholic Archbishop of Jos, Ignatius Kaigama has queried the
quality of help America is said to be giving to Nigeria towards the
fight against Boko Haram. In an interview with BBC Africa, Bishop
Kaigama wondered why Boko Haram attacks is still on the increase
despite the reported help America is offering Nigeria"The question is
if the US has been providing help, intelligence and assisting in one
way or the other, why the growing destruction? Why is the activities
of Boko Haram becoming so sophisticated? So I wonder the quality of
help. How effective is that help? How can it bring this situation to
ahalt?

We (Nigeria) certainly need help to overcome this terrorist group
because they seem to be expanding and growing more sophisticated in
their approach and they are claiming lives and displacing so many
Nigerians."He called on the international community to show genuine
concern to issues of terrorism on other parts of the world andnot just
Europe..

"Let us act together. It is important to feel concern when one part of
the world is in trouble. Whether it is in the middle east,Whether is
in the sub saharan africa. whether it is in Europe or America. I think
we should be genuinely concerned for one another and do what we can
like I see the very positive response of the french government in
tackling the issue of religious violence after the killings of their
citizens. There have been very very positive and putting in all they
can in order to ensure this does not happen again. We need that spirit
to be spread around.

Not just when it happens in Europebut when it happens in Nigeria, in
Niger, in Cameroon, in any poor country, that we mobilize our
international resources and confront the people who bring such sadness
to many families"he said
