During a #‎BringBackOurGirls protest in Abuja yesterday, president Jonathan told protesters to direct their anger at Boko Haram and not at the government. He spoke through the Minister of State for the Federal Capital Territory, Olajumoke Akinjide, who addressed the protesters;

“We must be careful not to politicize the campaign against terrorism. When a bomb goes off in Kabul, Afghanistan, the people of Afghanistan do not blame the government, they blame the terrorists.

“When a bomb goes off in Baghdad, Iraq, the people of Iraq do not blame the government, they blame the terrorists. When a bomb goes off in Islamabad, Pakistan, the people of Pakistan do not blame the government, they blame the terrorists. When a bomb goes off in Nigeria, we must all unite to fight the terrorists.”
