1. Equating the SE IPOB situation to the Boko Haram menace in the NE, is not only disingenuous, but mischievous. Both ideologies are different.
While the IPOB is seeking Biafra (self-determination) through a referendum, the Boko Haram are terrorists against “western education.”

2. At the foundation of IPOB’s ideology, you will find highly educated men. Nnamdi Kanu is a highly literate man.
Temperamental (who wouldn’t be? Nigeria can only make you go crazy), but he has proven himself smart. Smarter than the tourist Czar flying around the world.

3. Nigerians understand that no Igboman would strap a bomb around his waist, & kill himself like a chicken. Even the uneducated Igboman want to make some money, buy lands, build houses, travel the world.
The uneducated NEterner is a time bomb ticking. He does not know any better

4. While the Igbo apprenticeship system has taken the uneducated Igboman off the streets, the Almajiri menace is still very much with the North. Someone like Adamu Garba prides himself as one.

5. Goodluck Jonathan tried to remedy the situation, by building hundreds of Almajiri schools. But Buhari rolled back all the gains. Education is not his priority. Cows is.
In fact, education is under attack in the North. Sanusi understands; “only education can save the North.”
