kabba7: Evidence of a failed goverbnent.

What exactly are you saying?

The duo that went to bomb a sports arena in the US was an evidence of a failed government?

Tomorrow, don't brush your teeth so we can blamed the unbrushed teeth on the government.

To get to the bottom of this heinous crime, opponents of Amnesty, including politicians and higher ranking members of JTF should be looked at very closely.

Abeg make una let us hear word for this matter. i don't remember Nigeria ever having elders anymore these days. what we have are a bunch of old men that have decided to use the people they were supposed to lead as pawns for their selfish ambitions. i remember this old man sympathizing with boko haram because according to them "ORDINARY and MEANINGLESS" are killed by their hundreds every week by these cowards. i have lost a very close friend and so also my cousin to this barbaric people and all this man and the so called northern elders had to say was to give them amnesty. so just because he has been kidnapped i should cry abi? rubish. i lost my respect for him and the likes of tinubu, hell-rufai, buhari and the rest of them when they turned this whole situation to a political battle rather than see this as a threat to the existence of our their great nation. i hope they also feel the pain i felt when i lost those i love too. angry angry angry

Dr. Shettima Ali Monguno finally released by kidnappers



Dr. Shettima Ali Monguno has been finally released by kidnappers, elombah.com can confirm. The former Nigerian oil minister was kidnapped Friday by gunmen who stormed his vehicle outside a mosque in the restive city of Maiduguri, a stronghold of Islamist group Boko Haram. Elombah.com source in Maiduguri said the elder statesman was

released a few minutes ago, but did not say whether any ransom was paid before the release.

Shettima Ali Monguno, 87, served as Nigeria's oil minister in the 1970s and held the rotating presidency of the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in 1972.



"The abductors got in touch and they put my father through on the phone, he spoke to us and said that he was fine. They made a ransom demand," the ex-minister's son, Abubakar Ali Monguno told AFP, declining to give a figure.

Other residents and relatives said that Monguno had stayed behind to greet well-wishers after prayers and was attacked shortly after entering his car.

While no group claimed the attack, Boko Haram was behind a spate of assassinations and kidnappings around the northeastern city.

Borno state governor Kashim Shettima was mobilising elders and security chiefs in Maiduguri to discuss means of securing the ex-minister's safe release, a statement from his office said.

"The kidnap is likely targeted at a heavy ransom," the statement said.

Monguno, chairman of the Borno elders' forum, "has remained the face of Borno" over the years, it said. The (Boko Haram) sect perhaps realised how important Monguno is and hence could attract a high price in exchange for his release."

Monguno was among the group of elders who met President Goodluck Jonathan in Maiduguri in March to discuss the Boko Haram crisis.

He has repeatedly called for dialogue with the militant group and urged Jonathan to reduce the massive security deployment in the city and ease a curfew forcing all residents to stay indoors after sundown.

Boko Haram's insurgency has left thousands dead since 2009.

Kidnapped and released in the same day..... undecided

This was all a set up for the media.

I hope someone REALLY kidnaps this old man, so they can learn how serious the game they are playing is.

Re: Shettima Monguno Kidnapped In Maiduguri by Nobody: 4:29am On May 04, 2013
Another man's corpse will continue to look like a log until you have one of yours die. With all due respect, Monguno had been prevaricating, huffing and puffing on the issue of boko haram insurgency, alongside many northern elders.
Yesterday it was christians and southerners, today it is Monguno, tommorrow...we don't know. Until all Nigerians rise up to condemn boko haram for what they, we shall continue in this orgy of violence.

You dont get this whole setup, its all in the interest of returning power to the north , dr. ALI is fyne wherever he his, they are his boys, they are scheming for greater relevance now that bombing is being subdued by the jtf.
Elose11: Dr Ali Mongonu is one of the most respected elder statesmen in the north east. And one of those that had wage a 'relentless war' against the JTF occupation of Maiduguri. Instead of doing what a responsible elder should have done by calling the BH boys to order, he instead was busy blaming the federal govt for sending the military to help contain the BH insurgency. Well, Dr Mongonu, your kidnap is as a result of your inability to speak up against evil when you should. A responsible elder does not sleep when a snake is on rooftop. I pray you are released unharmed.
