The dreaded terrorist group, Boko Haram has reportedly crowned a new Emir in Bama North, a town that has been under controversial debate for some time now.

According to Vanguard, this was made known to the National Assembly by Senator Ali Ndume representing Borno North.

Senator Ndume, who described the development as an insult on the sovereignty of the nation further pointed out that when the terrorist group started its nuisance, their numerical strength was very poor when compared to what is now obtained.

The Gwoza born Senator said the members of the sect were not up to 100 and did not have AK47, as such weapons were only available to the country’s security operatives, but still government did not take their threat seriously and wipe them out.

“Yesterday in Bama, a new emir was installed by the Boko Haram. Recently, we reluctantly under your leadership (Mark’s) and I will say maybe, under your influence or instruction, conceded to the third or fourth state of emergency“ he said.

According to him, if the state of emergency was not approved then, the situation in the area would have been worse but not more than what is already obtained today.
