We sought the appointment and the opportunity for the President to know our views about the security situation and how to go about resolving the crisis. We recommended the use of dialogue as one of the strategies to resolve the security challenge and at the same time to devise strategies that will encourage or lay the foundation for sustainable peace in this country.

“Our presentation was preceded by long time discussion and deliberation. In a nutshell, what we sought to do is to give our views having regards to our background, our knowledge of various societies, various communities what we think should be done to resolve the crisis and ensure sustainable peace in the country. The issue of amnesty came up, it formed part of the strategies we are recommending but of course it has to be done properly with better appreciation of the situation rather than haphazardly which people think should be the case. We believe that we have to give very serious consideration and make sure that whatever we do is sustainable.” He concluded.

Is this guy for real.....first amnesty, and now release?

Seems some of his sons have been arrested or he fears the arrested BHs will spill the beans soon probably name names..............

I still dont understand why the presidency of Nigeria is a joke(soo lazy and dumb)! Someone here is trying so hard to make the government understand that he(they) know who is Bokoharam but the presidency is busy pointing fingers to an innoccent man(Gen. Buhari).
It always annoys me when things of such are happening. If the sultan of sokoto claims to know much about this terrorists, the government should find a way of manouvaring him to capture them all.

...i hope Henry Okar will be released with all kidnappers and criminals in Nigerian prisons cos their crimes are nt even as heavy as that of boko haram.....what a country!
