Nigerian Islamists Reject Muslim Cleric’s Talks With Government by realsammie(m): 8:45am On Jun 07, 2012
Boko Haram, the Nigerian Islamist group blamed for a spate of bombings
and gun attacks, said it opposes efforts by a Muslim cleric to help start
negotiations with the government.
Sheikh Dahiru Usman said on June 5 he had established contacts with state officials
and Boko Haram leaders, and both sides agreed to begin talks. Abul Qaqa, a
spokesman for Boko Haram, said the group hasn’t been approached about starting
a dialogue and its position remains unchanged from when it last ruled out
negotiations in March.
“We have seen it published in the media that Sheikh Dahiru Bauchi said he is talking
to us on dialogue, but we want the world to know that this has never happened and
we call on Sheikh Dahiru Bauchi to desist from such statements,” Qaqa said in an e-
mailed statement. “We have closed all doors to dialogue.”
Authorities in Nigeria, Africa’s biggest oil producer, blame Boko Haram, which seeks
to impose strict Islamic law in the country, for a surge in attacks in the mainly
Muslim north and the capital, Abuja, in which hundreds of people have died this
year.
President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration insists talks will be held with the
militants “on the condition that their leader will come out and announce a cease-
fire for three months or a minimum of 40 days” after which the government will
stop arresting their members, Usman said yesterday, showing reporters a letter he
said was written to the sect leaders by the government.
Reuben Abati, a spokesman for Jonathan, didn’t answer two calls on his mobile
phone or respond to an e-mail seeking comment yesterday.

When you say "religion", you are just playing politics with the truth.

It is Islamic Religion as practiced by Nigerians with Arabian blood in the Northern part of Nigeria.

It was a mistake amalgamating us and them.

There are other religions in Nigeria, non is carrying this campaign of terror. It has been going on and will never stop. Besides, look around the world over, and see what Islam is doing with guns and bombs in the name of Allah.

But they have stated clearly what they want:

Total, forceful and bloody islamisation of Nigeria: All "infidels" will become "slaves".
Freedom will be gone. Sites like Nairaland will be censored. Women must not come out or if they come out must cover from head to toe. Stoning to death for those who reject Islam, beheading, amputations, public floggings, etc will be the order of the day.
