Borno elders not accused of sponsoring boko haram army

I think there may be some misinformation here.

To clarify, there have been allegations and accusations made against some individuals and groups in Borno State, including traditional leaders, of having ties to or supporting Boko Haram, a terrorist organization that has been responsible for numerous attacks and human rights abuses in Nigeria.

In 2016, the Nigerian government accused some traditional leaders in Borno State of having links to Boko Haram, and some were arrested and detained. However, these allegations were later disputed by some of the leaders and human rights organizations, who argued that the accusations were baseless and aimed at undermining the traditional leaders' authority and legitimacy.

It's important to note that Boko Haram is a complex and multifaceted organization, and it's difficult to determine the exact nature and extent of its relationships with various individuals and groups. However, it's generally accepted that Boko Haram has received support and funding from various sources, including some individuals and groups in the region.

In any case, it's important to rely on credible sources of information and to approach these issues with a critical and nuanced perspective.
