The former Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Azubuike Ihejirika (Rtd) has again dismissed the allegation by Amnesty International (AI) that the Nigerian Military were guilty of war crime against civilian populace in the North Eastern part of the country, describing it as baseless.
Gen. Ihejirika made the position known yesterday at the occasion of National Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria Lecture and the award presentation to him by HURIWA in recognition of his contribution to the war against terrorism in Nigeria.

The  theme of the lecture was: Energy and House Hold Poverty in Nigeria and Human Rights and National Security. It held in Abuja.
Ihejirika who was represented by Group Capt. Affiku Steven (Rtd) said the allegation by AI was worrisome considering the huge sacrifices being made by the Nigerian Military and other security personnel to contain the spread of Boko Haram in the country and challenged the world body to come up with substantive evidence by making their source public.

The Amnesty International had in its recent report published on Tuesday, April 7, 2015, accused the Nigerian military of carrying out abuses against civilians, as part of their fight against the Islamic extremist group, Boko Haram.

The international human rights group also accused the military of killing more than 600 released prisoners. The violence against civilians it said constitutes “war crimes”.
He commended the HURIWA for the honour done  him and the Nigerian armed forces in recognition of their contributions in the war against terrorism.
For him, the worst human rights violation for the past six years were the abuses committed by the militant sect, which was responsible for the killings, bombings, and other attacks throughout the country, resulting in numerous deaths, injuries and the widespread destruction of property.

This terrorist organisation known as Amnesty International should shut their dirty mouth!

The whole wide World know about the devastating destruction these demonic terrorists have caused in terms of human lives!

God bless Nigeria

Noted

If Nigeria wasn't a banana republic where heroes are sacrificed on the alter of politics, Ihejirika would be commended not condemned.

They should turn their gaze towards the west and middle east and leave us out of their pre- meditated witch hunt.

Like ICC like Amnesty International!

Let them tell thst to George Bush. How many Western leaders has AI ever tried ?

Ok. Seen

Leaders of 12 northern states cultivated Boko Haram when they adopted use of sharia criminal laws beginning 2000.

Shortly after Muslims leaders of the 12 northern states adopted use of sharia criminal laws, Boko Haram emerged and has maintained that it is fighting for a country governed by sharia criminal laws.

Ihejirika and Nigeria Army fought the Boko Haram menacing Nigeria.

Northern Muslims leaders who share same objective with Boko Haram are merely deceiving Amnesty international.
