Is Boko Haram behind Nigeria school attacks?

Issued on:

Several schools have been set alight and bombed this year in Nigeria's northeast. The authorities are blaming the attacks on Islamists, known as Boko Haram, which in the local Hausa language means 'Western education is a sin'. But as RFI found out during a recent visit to the city of Maiduguri, not everyone is convinced Boko Haram are to blame.
