UK May Probe ‘links’ Between APC, Boko Haram by activatenigeria: 4:19pm On Jul 12, 2014 |
A prominent member of the British parliament, Mr. Andrew Rosindell , has questioned the UK foreign secretary, Mr. William Hague, on the country’s engagement with Nigeria’s leading opposition party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), over the Boko Haram menace. This came after a debate in parliament in which Labour MP Sandra Osborne sought to examine allegations of links between APC and the insurgents. The increasing questioning of the UK government by MPs on the issue may force an enquiry into the allegations. However, APC spokesman, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, told TheCable on Friday that he was not aware of any meeting between the leadership of APC and Hague. Rosindell, a conservative who represents Romford and is a member of the influential foreign affairs committee, sent in his written questions on Tuesday, July 8. Hague is mandated to formally respond to Rosindell’s questions in the coming weeks on behalf of the British government. The questions, listed under “notices for written answer”, were published on the website of the UK parliament. Rosindell’s queries relating to Boko Haram, as listed, are: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will commission an inquiry into the international support network for Boko Haram in Nigeria and Cameroon; and if he will make a statement. To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what discussions (a) he and (b) other Ministers in his Department have had with leading members of the Nigerian opposition party, the All Progressive Congress; and if he will make a statement. To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what assessment he has made of the rise in Islamicterrorism in Nigeria. (204387) To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what support his Department plans to offer to Nigeria in tackling the threat of Boko Haram. To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what assessment he has made of links between Boko Haram and other Islamic extremist groups in Africa. To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will discuss with his counterpart in Cameroon the need for constructive dialogue between that country and Nigeria in tackling Boko Haram; and if he will make a statement. http://www.activatenigeria.com/uk-may-probe-links-between-apc-boko-haram/ |

activatenigeria: So how does this link APC with Boko Haram?? If you do not know how the British parliament works, its better you google it. The MP asked about any meetings betwing Hague and APC, asked about Boko Haram and any help Nigeria may get regarding BH. In case you do not know, UK is proactive and may only be trying to align with APC knowing that PDP will be swept away soon. 4 Likes |

oshyno: @Bold: I it is just a ploy to keep their supporters on redundancy mode. If they know who is killing thousands on Nigerians, why have they not arrested and prosecute them? Or is PDP using the blood drained to perpetuate themselves in Power? Nigerians are not dumb. This administration will face the full wrath of the law for all the killing it is supervising and coordinating. 3 Likes |

activatenigeria: So it means that the 50 count charges that were being brandished by Jonathan in the media was merely to intimidate, assassinate his character and make him a tool. Now that he has fallen in line, suddenly Jonathan and his administration lost all the "evidence" it was brandishing. And guess what? You are sent online to come and rant to use how all the "evidence" is now lost. You should be ashamed. 2 Likes |
