Emir Of Anka Opposes Amnesty For Boko-Haram Members by udatso: 9:41am On Mar 14, 2013 |
Emir of Anka in Zamfara State, Alhaji Attahiru Ahmad, has asked President Goodluck Jonathan not to grant amnesty to members of the Islamist sect, Boko Haram. Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar lll, had at a meeting of the Jama’atu Nasril Islam in Kaduna, last week, urged the President to grant members of the sect amnesty. However, the Emir of Anka at a workshop on peace building and conflict management for sustainable development, organised by the National Emergency Management Agency on Wednesday in Kaduna, said “amnesty is for people you can identify”. He added, “Where were our leaders when members of Boko Haram were going to receive trainings outside the country. Let us check ourselves, if there must be justice, we must go back to the basics.” He also blamed the current security challenges on the elite and politicians. Ahmad said, “From experience, I have come to realise that whenever you have crisis and a proper investigation is carried out, you always find the involvement of these two classes. Within my domain, a sad experience occurred sometimes ago when an Igbo man, who owned a shop, was attacked and his shop burnt because his son was said to have torn a copy of the Quran. But upon investigation, I found out that a native of Anka, who was also in the same business with the Igbo man, deliberately roped-in the Igbo family. “He took a piece of paper with an Islamic inscription on it and tore it into pieces in front of the Igbo man’s shop and then raised the alarm calling on all Muslims faithful to come and see a copy of the Quran torn into pieces by the son of the Igbo trader. The crowd grew angry and set the house and the shop of the Igbo man ablaze immediately. You can see that this native of Anka did this malicious act purely for personal interest and not religion. And that is how it is with the elite and the politicians”. He added, “As a traditional ruler, who lives with the people, I have come to a conclusion that if the common man is left alone, there is going to be peace in the land. But any place you find crisis, just look around, you must find the involvement of these two classes – the elite and the politicians.” http://www.punchng.com/news/emir-opposes-amnesty-for-boko-haram-members/ 90 Likes 1 Share |

Within my domain, a sad experience occurred sometimes ago when an Igbo man, who owned a shop, was attacked and his shop burnt because his son was said to have torn a copy of the Quran. But upon investigation, I found out that a native of Anka, who was also in the same business with the Igbo man, deliberately roped-in the Igbo family. “He took a piece of paper with an Islamic Truth is powerful; you cannot contain it for too long. I am sure this is the same situation that befell Akuluka, Mr. Gideon Akuluka, an Igbo businessman, who was dragged out from prison and beheaded for a crime he never committed. Rumours has it that the present Central Bank Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi was complicit in the horrendous crime. Anyway, let's thank the Emir for siding with the truth. The solution to the boko haram crisis does not lie in amnesty. We should focus more on prevention of crime. Which better way to achieve this other than justice, fairness and equity. Members and sponsor of the boko haram should be fished out and severely punished for their crimes; they must never be rewarded for causing untold hardship to several families, and the society at large. Future occurrence can only be deterred by strong punitive measure. Nigeria is changing; and Goodluck Ebelemi Jonathan should stay course and never waver! NO to amnesty for cold blooded murderers of fellow countrymen; NO to amnesty for terrorists! 6 Likes |

He stated the obvious. I am so happy its coming from a northerner and a muslim cleric for that matter. All of us are gunning for heaven, we cant lie and get there. I wish more of them will speak out and lets stop this hypocrisy. Yoruba, have u seen the pple u work tirelessly to defend. Most of them know the truth thats why they dont talk not because they cant talk. Sanusi was right about the Yorubas. |
