Nigerians will lose Nigeria to a civil war” – Ribadu calls for amnesty for Boko Haram

Former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Nuhu Ribadu has voiced his support for amnesty for members of Islamic sect, Boko Haram.

On Saturday, Ribadu warned that if President Goodluck Jonathan refused to grant amnesty to Boko Haram, the country could fall into another civil war.

He said if President Jonathan didn’t act soon, with the way things were occurring in the country, “Nigerians will lose Nigeria to a civil war.”

“Jonathan was wrong to have said he will not grant amnesty to Boko Haram; he should not fail to protect the people and when people call saying we are tired, we are down; even if it means to dialogue and have a solution to the whole process, he should opt for such.

“You cannot say they are faceless because faceless people do not do things like this. Faceless people cannot be responsible and daily you see them on Facebook. Faceless people cannot be in your custody; ghosts cannot be people that are in the community, people who at a point wanted to dialogue,” Ribadu said.

Former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, recently supported the idea  of an amnesty when he was in Kano to sympathize with the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero, over the attack on him and his convoy. “For the innocent ones among them, there must be amnesty. We cannot fight a war in our own country against minor crimes and minor people. We would only end up multiplying these people by trying to use force against our own citizens,” he said.

According to reports, Ribadu who spoke on Liberty FM in Kaduna on Saturday insisted that President Jonathan granted amnesty to the sect for peace to return to the country, adding that a war could be averted “if we come together forgetting about sentiments, about differences and working towards unity and saving the resources of this country because it is only through that we will be able to achieve peace.”

Mods Front page Please,Thanks !

Ribadu have joined the evil forces from northern Nigeria to support evil and murderers. An amnesty for terrorists is a moral boaster for MASSOB to do more and surpass boko haram in violence, then igbo leaders will come out and ask for amnesty for them too. Say no to amnesty for terrorists.

No mallam, we won't lose 'Nigeria' to civil war over boko haram. 'Nigeria' would take her stance and fight this affliction called 'terrorism' to the end. We Aren't coward like you and your likes mallam.. Did 'Nigeria' go to war over militants? Boko haram would be crushed. Take your amnesty campaign to the dogs... And yes if you and Boko haram want war then you shall get it right there at your doorsteps and everything in it would be wiped out.. Is that what you want? Does that hurt you? Yes keep dying.....

Ribadu, kindly tell me what we should do to the victims after rewarding their cold blooded murderers?

what if Boko Haram do not want amnesty and vow to continue the struggle until sharia is implemented in the who of Nigeria?

Loosing Nigerian is a price most so Southerners will not hesitate to pay. What do 95% of Nigerians get from Nigeria now?

Which kind stup.id amnesty be that self? Who will FG give the amnesty to? Faceless Abokis? *I dey laugh*

Amnesty for who? Those blood sucking demons... They don't hv the right to live, they are not humans. If they want to live, they should bring back the lives that they have taken.

Anybody who clamor amnesty for a terrorist organization like BH should have his or her head examined.

How can anyone think of such? Isn't that tantamount to rewarding evil doers?

And what will happen to hundred if not thousands of people who lost their lives as result of BH?

Some people call massob a terrorist group. Please, what qualifies a group a Terrorist group? Can someone tell me.

Gradually, the Northern "elites" are coming out one after the other to show their true colours.

In the words of Ceaser, "even you Brutus": so, even you Ribadu?

Anyway as fro "loosing" Nigeria, that will be the best thing that will ever happen to me and to Biafra!

Am realy suprise at the attitude of these bred B-astar-ds called the northerners.

WHY WOULD ANYBODY SUPPORT AMNESTY FOR BOKO HARAM? Why are the asking that the BokoHARAM be rewarded for killing the masses ?
The truth is that the so called merger mega party (APC) IS PROMOTING AN ISLAMIC AGENDA, THOSE FROM SOUTH, EAST, WEST AND ALL CHRISTIANS SHOULD TAKE NOTE OF THE ABOVE.
The so called Bola tinubu, buhari and co are they beter than any1 in Pdp?

People should wakeup, Nigerians should wake up and say no to the rise of this merger mega islamic sect called Party APC, SPONSORED BY IRAN AND CO.

Nigeria is still better under Gudluck and Pdp for today. Lets SUPPORT PDP, LETS SUPPORT GEJ LEd GOVERNMENT.

North America and Europe should give Amnesty to Al qeada while Israel should give Amnesty to Hamas.

I am not really surprised at what this set of people are spewing out of their wicked and beguiled minds.

These are the same people behind the APC political party, this same lunatic Ribadu was sponsored by Tinubu to become Nigeria's president in 2011, the same Lunatic was behind the use of EFCC to victimize some Governors that were opposed to Obasanjo's political party and now he is championing Amnesty for Terrorists

If Fulani/Hausa North decide to go their separate way, Yorubas will die of Hunger, d reason why Yorubas are doing everything to please them.

We tried to lose Nigeria in 1967 but Awolowo swung the support to the north. Now we can lose Nigeria without shooting a single gun. Let the boko boys start abeg, we are watching the comedy.

That America Mobilized Osama with funds to support Afghanistan when they were resisting the Invasion of Soviet Union does not equate to America Supporting Terrorism , war and terrorism are 2 different things , if only you had taken time to read and research you would have realized that Saudi Arabia , China , pakistan were all supportive in the war to liberate Afghanistan from Soviet Union Invasion. Does that equate to Saudi Arabia supporting terrorism ?

There is a big difference between Terrorism and insurgency please get some education,American supports Insurgency and not terrorism , they supported insurgency of minorities in Syria and Libya over oppressive dictactors who have held power for a long period of time and that can not be equated to support for terrorsinm

I really wonder why they are calling for amnesty for blood-sucking vampires who only delights in taking innocent lives. Well I won't go for that but since Nigerian government has no solution †̥ curbing this terrorist then they should opt for the amnesty.

Amnesty shall never be granted. They can surrender but amnesty is not for killers.

@Eggheaders,
The general believe of Yorubas is that, with out the North, all Yoruba are going to die of hunger, take it or leave it.

We all know the landlocked region that is best for only red oyel and erosion calamity, same people shouted genocide 46 years ago over an ordinary civilian's action
Who are you gonna blame for the next starvation coming to this same region soon when disintegration eventually happens?

You are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts

Eggheaders get it into your head that Boko Haram is a terrorist Organisation and not an insurgent organisation , it is only a terrorist that will wake up in the morning and lace him self with bombs and go and blow up a church filled with innocent worshipers who are not a threat to the activities of the terrorist group.

The insurgents in Libya and Syria fought Governmental forces with every weapon they could avail and in any method they could they had specific political Objective which was to uproot Ghadaffi from power and enthrone Democracy and to Push Assad away from power.

What is the Political Objective of Boko Haram ? why are they bombing innocent civilians , churches and Business.
Where the Insurgents in Libya looking for Amnesty or the removal of a dictator ?

You work harder, the time we worked hard for the non existence of this country, your kin Azikiwe truncated it. You're on you own now
