Jonathan Masterminded October 1 Bombing - Okah Insists by abagoro(m): 11:31pm On Jul 10, 2013
Mr. Henry Okah who is standing trial in South African magistrate court, yesterday, told the court that President Goodluck Jonathan  and his aides organized  the October 1, 2010 bomb attacks in Abuja  in a desperate political strategy to demonize political opponents, and win popular sympathy ahead of the 2011 elections.

Henry Okah, the detained leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND), who is being blamed for the 2010 Independence Day bomb that killed at least 10 people with many more injured, told a South African court the attacks were sponsored by President Goodluck Jonathan.



However,  the federal government who has linked MEND leader’s brother, Charles Okah and four others to the 2010 Independence Day twin bombing has also arraigned them before a Federal High Court in Abuja for the acts of terrorism and other treasonable offences. 

In a 194 page affidavit deposed to at a South African court, the MEND leader, Henry Okah yesterday said that the president and those working for him, had engineered similar attacks prior to October 1 bombing in March 2010.

Meanwhile, President Goodluck Jonathan has faulted the claims of Okah before a South African court.

Speaking through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, the president described Okah’s claims as not only false, but lacking factual foundation.

A statement made available to LEADERSHIP yesterday night reads in part: “The Presidency categorically affirms that these allegations are false in their entirety and without any factual foundation.

As the case of Mr. Okah’s involvement in the plotting and execution of terrorist attacks in Nigeria is already before a court of competent jurisdiction in South Africa, the Presidency does not intend to say anymore on the matter for now and will, in accordance with due process and international law, make a full representation on the matter to the court when the trial opens.”

There is surely no way this foolish man that is the President will avoid spending the remaining part of his years in jail.

Ibori, don't worry. Your brother will soon come and join you.

Jonathan and his hippopotamus wife's hands are heavily soaked in blood! Their end I can predict will be the worst this nation has ever seen or experienced.

Why should Henry Okah be believed? But i wonder why Jonathan was holding brief for Mend when that happened. I had never seen a president defend a terrorist organization until Jonathan became the spokesman for MEND.

Who killed General Azazi and why? Some will say he died of plane crash but I want to let nairalanders know that most aircrafts explode after going down and any that explodes mid air is under rocket or bomb attack. That was General Azazi's case.

I used to be a fan of Jonathan but the president is so desperate for power. He has forgotten that it is God who gives power.This whole Amaechi saga has convincely proved and cleared some doubts.

October 1 Bombing: Henry Okah Insists Jonathan Masterminded Bomb Attacks

...................

That report was written in May 2012 but we are now in July 2013 for goodness sake. It seems regurgitation of STALE and DECOMPOSED reports is the latest from the bag of tricks of online vultures. Desperation has surely crept in, all in attempt to resurrect the dying APC project. But the degree of shamelessness is just appalling.

Afam4eva: While should Henry Okah be believed? But i wonder why Jonathan was holding brief for Mend when that happened. I had never seen a president defend a terrorist organization until Jonathan became the spokesman for MEND.

The Boko Haram has @ today signed a cease fire with federal government. Imagine that Sambo was the one who brokered the deal as the VP. Ge had met face to face with the BH leaders and peace has returned to some extent. Imagine that Sambo ihas become the President, most of the BH members are either under some trainings or contracts and then suddenly on OCT 1st, a bomb goes off ans someone comes out to claim it was done by the BH.

And Sambo says, "it cant be". It does not make him a spokesman for BH.

Henry Okar has denied being a member of MEND, but his members in Nigeria are threatening war over him.

Anybody that believes henry should have his head examined. Henry is a gun runner whose trade was terminated by the amnesty. It is unfortunate that his criminal gang signed their signature as MEND.

BH claims they were not responsible for killings of school children, they might be telling the truth!
