Editor’s note: The Boko Haram terrorist group has received global condemnation while also facing serious military action in Nigeria to wipe them away from existence due to their anti-human activities.
In a facebook past by Nwodo Ugochukwu, he notes that the terrorists hide under the guise of religion to promote hatred and wreak havoc. He urged instead that religion should be a tool for unity and not for segregation

Boko Haram is right
Sounding weird right?….That is the reality to a certain extent.
Bokoharam is an islamic extremist group out solely for a full fledged violent prosecution of Jihad. Now Jihad simply means evangelism.
When the Jehova witness group storm your house, they are on a Christian jihad. What prompts evangelism is when you are in the midst of people you term unbelievers.
Now the clean breast of the matter is that Christians also have their own form of violent evangelism(Jihad).
Boko Haram terrorists
The moment the pastor or any other Christian group storm the village shrine in a commando-style to set it ablaze, that is a Jihad against the owner(s) of the shrine.
Why do we cry foul when Bokoharam set churches ablaze and kill worshipers in the North when we down here are persecuting traditional believers terming them pagans?
If you don’t want to me to come for your dog then don’t kill my cat.
If you quote from your bible on the reason you set shrines ablaze, bokoharam will also quote from their Koran why they must behead Christians and destroy their churches.
Judaism adherents
Hindus will also refer to their holy book and be wrecking havoc.
Buddhist will also not be left out.

If all these should take place then we will be having a hell here on earth courtesy of our collective misdeeds.
Religion should not be a segregational tool but a tool for harmonization.
Lets apply restrain and endeavor not to impose the violent aspect(s) of our doctrine on others. The world is not all about your religious beliefs hence the need to acknowledge the existence of other beliefs.
