Boko Haram Terrorists Were Trained Here Before Going Back to Nigeria- Somalia President
According to Somalia’s President Hassan
Sheikh Mohamud, Boko Haram insurgents
have been trained in Somalia before
returning to Nigeria.
The president said his country, plagued by
political in-fighting, corruption and attacks
by al Shabaab insurgents, has recently
made limited progress towards creating a
functioning political system.
"Without a stable Somalia, the whole region
of the Horn of Africa will remain unstable
and by and large, the African continent.
There are proofs and evidence that (for)
sometime Boko Haram has been trained in
Somalia and they went back to Nigeria,"
Reuters quoted him as saying.
Sheikh Mohamud said the international
community needs to be organised against
terrorism because "the terrorists are so
linked together, they are associated and so
organised."
He spoke at a security conference in
Munich, Germany on Sunday.
