Hajiya Aisha Wakil, known as Mama Boko Haram because of her closeness to the members of the sect, tells KAYODE IDOWU that the insurgents are tired of fightingWhat is the relationship between you and the Boko Haram members? People started calling me Mama Boko Haram when insurgency was at its peak in Borno State and the insurgents were bulldozing Maiduguri, killing and maiming everybody in the process. That was how people started calling me Mama Boko Haram. Some people allege that you do not have any link to the Shekau’s faction of the Boko Haram sect. Do you think that a peaceful resolution of the Boko Haram war is still feasible?
