Should The Federal Government Negotiate With The Boko Haram Sect?

08:57 - 13 May 2014

It has now become apparent that <a href="http://pulse.ng/lifestyle/discussion/morning-teaser-do-you-think-president-goodluck-jonathan-has-what-it-takes-to-stop-boko-haram-id2827953.html" id="01336f2d-c5ef-500d-baa7-55d1dce05a2a">the dreaded Boko Haram insurgents have decided to negotiate with the Federal Government of Nigeria</a>, something the government had begged them to do for years now.

But the only draw-back is that they want to use the kidnapped female students of the Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, as bargaining chips.

They have stated that they can only release the girls if their all their members who are in detention, are released unconditionally and should be paid compensations.

In the light of this, we ask on Morning Teaser today: do you think the Federal Government should succumb to these demands and negotiate with the Boko Haram sect?
