caption: President Goodluck Jonathan
By SaharaReporters, New York
Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan has said he will not meet the demand of Boko Haram that he embrace the Islamic faith and become its ardent member, or resign from office.
He said the demand amounts to both blackmail and rude intimidation.
Speaking through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, Jonathan said he would not resign as president as he was in power based on the mandate given to him by Nigerians in the 2011 presidential poll.
Abati said it was laughable for any group in the country to hand down such a condition
