This is condemnable and inimical to corporate existence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe President must be told in clear terms that his sympathetic outlook towards Boko Haram members is the very reason the carnages we witness daily are unlikely to end any time soon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPresident Buhari\u2019s selective fight against terrorism is incapable of producing any fruitful result.
