Boko-Haram Was Planning To Declare Their Own Country - Tukur by mamikky: 1:24pm On May 16, 2013 |
National Chairman of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Bamanga Tukur on Wednesday revealed that the terrorists behind the unending crises in the Northern parts of the country had concluded plans to secede and declare their own State before the Federal Government struck on Tuesday and declared emergency rule in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe states. Alhaji Tukur who made the revelation in Abuja while receiving in audience a group of journalists from Kaduna State who paid him a courtesy call said that President Goodluck Jonathan settled for emergency rule in the affected states for the sake of unity, peace and stability of Nigeria as a nation. According to him“Mr President took the last option of declaring a State of Emergency because the terrorists were becoming more daring. They were even planning to declare a state of their own and these happened because many of us believed that the menace of terrorism has been a problem for the north alone.” Alhaji Tukur, while expressing absolute confidence in the ability of the nation’s armed forces and other security agencies to make the State of Emergency work in the affected states, pleaded with politicians and other stakeholders to rally round the government with every means in their capacity to make the fight against terrorism succeed. Speaking on why the emergency rule was extended to his state, Adamawa, Alhaji Tukur said that the consideration of the government was that since Borno and Adamawa were geographically contiguous, it made a lot of sense to engage terrorists within the zones broadly in an attempt to break their network and areas of stronghold. According to him, “though Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states will be feeling the heats of the State of Emergency at the moment, all states of the federation must begin to guard their borders, as a proactive measure for limiting the scope and space for operations of terrorists. http://www.tribune.com.ng/news2013/index.php/en/component/k2/item/11988-troops-flood-borno-yobe-adamawa-begin-operation-secure-borders-terrorists-plotted-secession-before-fg-struck-tukur http://www.naijapundit.com/news/boko-haram-was-planning-to-declare-their-own-country-tukur 1 Like |

"It would be recaled that in recent times extremists of Northern origin including Alhaji Lawal Kaita and gubernatorial candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) in Jigawa state during the last election, Farouk Aliyu, had publicly declared that unless the North won the 2015 Presidential election there would no longer be a Nigeria" ^ When i read the above my perception changed about the aim of this piece. 2 Likes |

Why were they denied of their own state for God's sake? Is it by force to stay together as part of one country? This is one of the fundamental issues I wrote about earlier. Many Nigerians are fed up with the Nigeria arrangement. We need a bold and courageous leader that can facilitate a proper federal structure, referendum, Conference or permit aggrieved parts to leave and live in peace. 32 Likes |

They should have allowed them to do that! Nigeria is destined for failure; you've tried for 53 years and for 53 years you have failed miserably with a capital F. It's time to try something new and break the darn cursed country into pieces!! Let people align with their ethnic identities in their own new countries! Stop stunting everyone's growth with Nigeria - Nigeria will NEVER work!! Jah bless! 10 Likes |

Pukkah: Why were they denied of their own state for God's sake? Is it by force to stay together as part of one country?Countries like Nigeria do not divide with the leaders of the different warring factions,region or ethnic group/tribe holding hands and singing 'ONE LOVE' .....but drives towards division with the blood of patriots and nationalists pouring like rivers of water then you're just something close to division......GO CHECK YOUR HISTORY BOOKS..... 1 Like |

It would have ben better if they declared their country. It would have been an easier task 4 nigeria as we know we ll be at war against another "country". We can, then level the said country. Not now that these civilians are creating a safe haven for them, and when they are caught in the cross fire, Amnesty international will cry wolf. 1 Like |

They should be allowed to secede na. What resources do they have to sustain a nation? No fertile land, no natural resources, nothing to boast of. Northern Nigeria has been the main problem of this country. I bet, if they go their separate ways, then Nigerian problem is 80% solved. 6 Likes |
