Address Boko Haram as terrorist, not Islamic sect, OIC tasks media, civil societies
2018-06-09
[NEWTELEGRAPHONLINE] The Organisation of Islamic Conference (OIC) has tasked the media in Nigeria and abroad to desist from addressing Boko Haram
... not to be confused with Procol Harum, Harum Scarum, possibly to be confused with Helter Skelter. The Nigerian version of al-Qaeda and the Taliban rolled together and flavored with a smigeon of distinctly Subsaharan ignorance and brutality...
snuffies as Islamic sect.

The OIC, which said this in a document, insisted that the members of the sect should rather be addressed as criminals because they "are anti- Islam."

Quoting the Secretary General of the group, Eyad Madani, the document read: "What they (Boko Haram) do is criminal act; it has absolutely nothing to do with Islam."

The IOC scribe said: "The OIC has issued statements that ... these people are outlaws. "What they do is criminal act, it has absolutely nothing to do with Islam, Islamic teachings, the religion of Islam, the history, the culture, the civilization of Islam and we should identify them for what they are: as a terrorist group." Mr. Madani had earlier said in Abuja that the OIC is solidly behind Nigeria in its fight against Death Eaters.
