Why the battle against ISIS and Boko-Haram is difficult is that progressive Islamic scholars and leaders who are the change agents needed to root out the cancer are targets of attacks by the fanatical sponsors of the ideology. There are many of such leaders in northern Nigeria and in the Islamic leadership but they are afraid for their lives and families. A major characteristic of such leaders is that they are well educated, intelligent and opinionated. Alh Lamido Sanusi reading culture pitches him against those who abhor western education (which is the literal meaning of Biko-Haram). Below is a picture of the ex-emir in his library.
A Veritable Opinion Leader! We blaze the trail, and the World follows. It is Moving Forward. A pragmatic approach to Leadership and Public Service. Defined by Common Sense and Intuitive Instinct. Dedicated to the service of humanity. It's about Policy Statements and knowing what works. God's Goodness Lives in Me - Visionary, Creative, and Audacious. A Globalized Narrative for Progressive Idealism, Rule of Law, and the Pursuit of Happiness. You hear it here, first. It is Straight Talk!
