Boko Haram Dialogue! Jonathan Observes Ramadan Fast- Converted To Muslim??? by bigmo1(m): 2:38am On Aug 21, 2012
If facts that emerged on Friday are true, then Federal Government of Nigeria is considering shifting it’s grounds and reached for ‘Boko Haram’s peace terms
(condition for peace)’. Boko Haram is the radical fundamentalist Islamic sect, which had masterminded bombings in the mainly Muslim North, especially against Christians, for more than three years now.
The Minister of Information, Mr. Labaran Maku, had after the Federal Executive Council meeting last Wednesday, told journalists that government had accepted to hold talks with Boko Haram in the interest of peace.
Earlier demands of the Islamic sect had included release of their members being detained aπϑ prosecuted, and President Goodluck Jonathan’s conversion to Islam, payment of compensation or Diyya for their members they considered “killed unjustly” by security forces.
Has the president converted to a Muslim
already!!! He announced on national tv few days, saying that he, President Goodluck Jonathan, observed the just concluded Muslim Ramadan fast ‘in solidarity with his Muslim brothers.’
A source told the press that the Nigerian government might accede to the Diyya demand. “not too difficult conditions.” – Said a source in the Presidency. “Once
these conditions were met, they would cease fire”Another source added.
The Nigerian Government does not want to expose those behind the talks to avoid a previous experience, when the disclosure of the identities of the dialogue handlers frustrated the move.
“I can confirm to you that it is true that the group is currently dialoguing with the government.”
“The good news is that they are talking and they have promised to cease fire once some of their demands are met.”
“They have on their own, promised to cease fire aπϑ go after the ‘political Boko Haram’ once the demands
are met.” – The presidency source.
