Jonathan Urged To Ensure Trial Of Boko Haramsponsors by emaculate99: 6:34pm On Aug 31, 2014 |
Human rights lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana (SAN), and a former member of House of Representatives, Dino Melaye, have called on President Goodluck Jonathan to ensure that alleged sponsors of the fundamentalist Islamic sect, Boko Haram, were prosecuted. A Federal Government-appointed international negotiator, Rev. Stephen Davies, revealed the identities of the possible sponsors of the sect over the weekend. The Federal Government had engaged Davies to enter into dialogue with the Boko Haram sect for the release of the abducted 275 Chibok school girls. Falana said in a statement on Sunday that to avoid possible manipulation of the investigation of the suspects as revealed by Davies, President Jonathan must refer the suspects to the Special Prosecutor of the international Criminal Court. He said, “In view of the gravity of the allegations of crimes against humanity committed by the sponsors of the Boko Haram sect, President Jonathan should refer the suspects to the Special Prosecutor of the international Criminal Court. “Any local investigation conducted by the Federal Governnent in the circumstance may be manipulated by vested political interests.” Falana said the disclosure by the Australian negotiator in a well publicised televised interview in London last week, “was backed with some detailed accounts which confirmed some information in the domain of the security forces in the country.” He said, “The international negotiator disclosed that a former governor of Borno state, a former chief of army staff and a former top official of the Central Bank of Nigeria have provided funds and other logistics to the body for the terrorist attacks which had claimed the lives of hundreds of innocent people in the country.” He added, “It would be recalled that the Ambassador Usman Galtimari Committeee on insurgency in the north east zone set up in 2011 by President Jonathan had recommended the prosecution of some politicians who sponsored, funded and used the militia groups that later metamorphosed into Boko Haram. “In a White Paper issued on the report of the Committee, the Federal Government accepted the recommendation and directed the National Security Adviser to coordinate the investigation of the kingpins and sponsors to unravel the individuals and groups that are involved. “Although the White Paper was published in May 2012, the directive of the Federal Government has not been carried out up till now because the individuals involved are said to be connected to the Presidency. However, the special envoy of the Federal Government has just named one of the ‘kingpins and sponsors’ of the terrorist sect.” Meanwhile Melaye, on Sunday described the defence of the alleged sponsors, by a former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, as “hasty and indecent.” He said what was expected of the President Jonathan’s administration was to order an independent investigation of the allegations instead of playing politics with it.

Gej if u want try boko haram start from that australia negoiator. How d he get to know of their sponsor..... Even buhari nd co like let them call obama to vindicate them nd call innocent ones. All I know is that buhari is the president of boko haram. The man refuse to call the cbn bank official but rather people from opposition party. Last buhari claimed that doris paid bombers to kill him only for the mother of the suspected bomber to say that her son is a lunatic thereby constracting buhari nd co. Buhari go nd die pls. |

Insyead of you to question Ihejirika and ali modu sherrif, you are here talking about buhari simply because he's a threat to the Clueless one's 2015 ambition. #ArrestIhejirikaNowThen if you think so hausa is the most stupid, illitrate, Bleep up, animalistic tribe in the world my friend. How can someone who is not from your tribe convince you to start killing your brothers. I wonder how you can convince ibo man to bomb himself. Check it, i was a supporter of buhari, but the moment he use his mouth and say that he will make nigeria ungovernable and start calling boko haram freedom fighter, i start to suspect him. if ihejirika is supporting boko haram while did the northern boko haram leaders call them freedom fighter and complain of genocide. At the eve of election, they start running from pillar to post looking for who to accuse of being boko haram support. The dog have over grown his owners. Even the usa know the boko haram sponsor. What will happen on january 2015, if goodluck provide all evidence linking Buhari to boko haram that will be the end of apc in nigeria. If buhari claim to be our future leader, let him start by developing his local govt through helping them start a worthy living, building roads etc i will take him serious. Charity begins at home. SERIOUSLY....... I HATE HAUSA AND FULANI VERY WELL AND I AM PROUD TO SAY THAT. THEY ARE DOGS WHO CAN BOMB THEMSELF AND OTHERS IF THEY ARE GIVEN N500. EVEN YOU QUOTING ME, NEXT YEAR YOU WILL WEAR A NICE BOMB TO BLOW UP URSELF because BUHARI WILL LOSE. 4 Likes |
