in Nigeria are being induced by the international community to "cut Nigeria to size" and that some worldwide paymasters are supporting the radicals.
Musa expressed this in an article distributed on Wednesday, December 2 in the wake of the grisly homicide of more than 40 rice farmers beheaded by individuals from the Boko Haram order on Saturday, November 28.

“The recent killing of our people on a rice farm in Borno State was unexpected, inhuman, cowardly, dastardly and sadistic cruelty by the Boko Haram terrorists.
There is no normal human being that will take pleasure in such inhuman massacre of defenceless and armless civilians, working on their farms; but that is the nature of terrorism and those who sponsor it.
There is an international conspiracy to cut Nigeria to size and compromise national renegades making attempts to destabilise and dismember Nigeria if possible in subservience to the international paymasters, who are the owners of Boko Haram. They train them, arm them, finance them and supply their logistics.”
Musa affirmed that Boko Haram would have been totally vanquished if not for their international sponsors.
