REVEALED: How Ali Modu Sheriff Started Boko Haram – Borno AG by dave1614: 6:49am On Aug 29, 2016
Borno state attorney
general Barrister Kaka
Shehu Lawan says the
arrogance and desperation
for power of Ali Modu
sheriff may have nurtured the insurgency through his
actions while in office – The AG asked why Modu
Sheriff tendered an
apology to the Boko Haram
sect on July 5, 2011 Wani sabon Ciyaman jam'iyyar PDP ta kasa Sanata Ali Modu Sheriff The Borno state attorney
general and commissioner of
Justice, Barrister Kaka Shehu
Lawan, says the arrogance and
desperation for power of Borno
state former governor, Ali Modu sheriff may have nurtured the
insurgency through his actions
while in office. He state this while speaking at
the Nigerian Bar Association,
NBA conference in Port-
Harcourt. The AG blamed Sheriff
for the death of Mohammed
Yusuf, the founder of Boko Haram. “In an interview on Sunday
Politics on Channels TV, Ali Modu
Sheriff said about two weeks
ago, that he had seen
Mohammed Yusuf at the Giwa
military Barracks in Maiduguri after he was arrested during
2009 crisis. The important
question is why was Yusuf
moved from the military custody
to the police headquarters if
not for him to be killed, especially given the fact that
Buji Foi was taken to the same
police headquarters and killed.” READ ALSO: Controversy: Fulani herdsmen attack, Fani Kayode
rains curses, attacks Buhari “What did Sheriff as Chief
security officer do to secure
Muhammad Yusuf. Why was
Muhammad Yusuf not allowed to
make open confessions which
could have included his claim of being betrayed. “On July 5,
2011, former Governor Ali Modu
Sheriff tendered an apology to
the Boko Haram sect “for
whatever he might have done
wrong to them”. Why did he apologize, if he knew he did
nothing wrong to the sect.” Noting the killing of 17 members
of the group allegedly by
security officers while on a
funeral procession in 2009, the
commissioner said the
complacency of Sheriff government on the issue was a
moral burden. “The Borno Government under
Ali Modu Sheriff completely
disregarded that incident. The
government did not issue
statement to condemn the
shooting; the sympathise with the victims; the Government did
not conduct any inquiry on the
shooting; the government
neither visited the shot sect
members in the hospital nor did
it care to pay for the medication of the 17 injured
sect members. “Sheriff was told by different
public commentators, including
some officials in his
administration that his act of
disregard for that bloody
incident could be viewed by the sect as an affront yet out of
arrogance, Sheriff ignored all
wise counsel with his
government acting as if there
was no incident at all. “In an interview on Daily Trust
a few days later, leader of the
sect, Malam Muhammad Yusuf
threatened a reprisal attack
alleging that the actions of the
Borno State Government which neither condemned the
shooting, made inquiry nor
empathized with the sect was
an indication that the shooting
was orchestrated with the aim
of eliminating his followers . “A day or so after the
interview, Yusuf delivered a
sermon in Hausa language,
titled, “open letter to
President Umaru Musa
Yar’adua” and directed his followers to go and arm
themselves in preparation of
self defense and eventful Jihad
in response to the shooting of
his 17 followers. “Even while
Muhammad Yusuf issued this directive and threat for Jihad,
Governor Ali Modu Sheriff still
disregarded the possible room
to make peace with the sect. “On Tuesday, July 21, 2009,
some members of the sect, 9 in
number were arrested in
possession of 74 empty bomb
shells, a large quantity of gun
powders, chemicals and other components of making
improvised explosive devices.
They were arrested in Biu,
headquarters of Biu local
government area in southern
part of Borno State, which is about 180 kilometers away from
Maiduguri. “On Friday, July 24, 2009, the
nine arrested sect members
were paraded at the police
headquarters in Maiduguri with
their materials for making
Improvised explosive devices on display by the police. READ ALSO: Boko Haram: Buhari set to bring back Chibok girls “Commander of the group of 9
sect members, Inusa Ibrahim
Sabo told journalists on record
that they were in possession of
the explosive materials in
preparation to defend themselves against Ali Modu
Sheriff’s operation flush. He
said they were directed by
Muhammad Yusuf to arm
themselves because they
presumed the shooting of their brothers was intentional and
they were no longer safe. “That very Friday of July 24,
2009, the first explosion in
Maiduguri took place. It was a
locally made bomb which
exploded at night in the
residence of one Hassan Sani Badami from Biu, a follower of
the sect trained in making
explosive devices. The bomb
exploded while it was being
prepared by Badami. Another
follower of the sect working with Badami sustained severe
injuries while Badami’s wife and
child were taken to the
headquarters of Operation Flush
on Dikwa road. “The following day, Muhammad
Yusuf in reaction, described
Badami’s death as ticket for
him into paradise. Meanwhile, President
Muhammadu Buhari has vowed
to deal with Niger Delta militants the same way he
treated Boko Haram terrorists. Source http://davesblog.over-blog.com/2016/08/revealed-how-ali-modu-sheriff-started-boko-haram-borno-ag.html

One thing I still don't GT about this fulanis is, are they in secret court that none of them could probe the other. It's been a while now that it was established either Rumour or true) that sherif was the founder of the Boko sect but since no effort made so far to even find out the genuiness of the claim.

Same sherif is causing headache in pdp and upon man court Rulling, he is still adamant and unshaking
