France President, Francois Hollande on Saturday, urged for the united front against the “barbarism” of Boko Haram Islamists, he made the statement in regards to the attack on the Kano central Mosque bombing on Friday which claimed over 1200 lives.

“In Nigeria, an attack that killed more than 120 people coming out of a mosque, that’s what a sect like Boko Haram is capable of, that’s why we still need to fight together, always fight against terrorism,”

“We must unite against barbarism, against the risks posed by fundamentalism, notably in the Sahel, in Africa,” Hollande said at an annual gathering of French-speaking countries hosted this year by Senegal.

Cameroon President, Paul Biya, also addressed the meeting, saying: “With this sort of adversary there cannot be any compromise. We are facing an organisation of global proportions.”
