Demonstrators Throw Rocks At Nigerian Presidential Election Convoy, Saying Troops Should Be Deployed Against Boko Haram



The Guardian: Nigerian youths stone presidential convoy amid anger over failure to stop Boko Haram

* Protesters in eastern town of Jalingo demand action against Boko Haram extremists
* Motorcade stoned and podium pelted in separate incidents last week

WNU Editor: To say that the Nigerian military has failed to stop Boko Haram is an understatement. A nwe approach is needed, and it appears that for many Nigerians .... that new approach will not come from Nigerian President Goodluck.
