Boko Haram...What will Buhari do?

President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria has been called every unprintable name that you can imagine. After the general elections last year, it seemed like there was nothing happening in government circles that was reminiscent of the "auto-drift" era of the last Yaradua days. The audacity of the Boko Haram to move from bombing banks and police posts to the UN building gave the group more worldwide coverage. Since then, "Boko Haram" has bombed churches, schools, police posts, media offices, etc. and up till now, it seems like the group has waxed stronger instead of being weakened. With the indictment of the PDP on Boko Haram by the National Security Adviser recently and not forgetting that the bombs are still going off, I asked myself a question: What will Buhari do about Boko Haram if he was President of Nigeria?
