Boko Haram too big for us - Dada

Thursday, May 15, 2014

The chairman of the Muslim Association of Botswana Satar Dada says they are deeply concerned with the current situation in Nigeria in which over 250 girls were abducted by the Islamic group Boko Haram. He said his association is too small and therefore cannot do anything about it.

Dada expressed his sincere sympathy to the families of the girls involved in the incident.
