President Muhammadu Buhari

Two leading UK experts on terrorism, Dr. Afzal Ashraf and Richard Barrett, have advised the Federal Government to be cautious in holding talks with the violent Islamic sect, Boko Haram. The duo made this known in separate email exchanges with our correspondent.

The President Muhammadu Buhari administration has not ruled out negotiation with the terror group.

Ashraf, a consultant fellow at the Royal United Services Institute for Defence, said it was not advisable to negotiate with ideological terrorists.
