  1. There is nothing call Boko Haram in this territory of the natives. The said Amina Muhammed is member of fulani criminal terrorists hidden under the fraudulent dead political name Nigeria, the leader of fulani criminal terrorists is the man who call himself sultan. It is Political War in which the last fulani criminal terrorists must be erased in this territory of the natives in the ongoing Revolution War of the natives- South East, South South, South West, North East, North West, North Central. The said Amina Muhammed is abusing office of UN institution by using the office to fight Political War for her fulani criminal terrorists against natives of this territory of the natives- war fulani criminal terrorists has lost- bloody conflict the enemy has lost, which must be defended in the ongoing Revolution War of the natives. God Is With Us!!!
