Vice Chairman, Abuja Chibok community Mutah
Nkeki, yesterday accused the Federal Government
of telling lies when it said that a ceasefire deal
had been reached with Boko Haram.
Nkeki said the Chibok community and other
communities in Borno and the northeast,
jubilated when they heard the reports, only to be
attacked.
He said they trusted the government and some of
their people who were in hiding especially in
Dambuwal, returned to their homes only to be
attacked, killed or abducted.
He spoke yesterday, during the usual sit-out of
members of the #BringBackOurGirls advocacy in
Abuja.
He said: “To people in Chibok in particular, on the
day that the announcement was made, a lot of
jubilation went on in our community, because we
felt that they were telling the truth, that our
daughters will be back and we will once again
have peace.
“Only to realise that the government was telling
us lies, they claimed that Danbuwal was under
government control which made people from
there who had been hiding in different places to
run back home, believing that they were safe only
to be attacked and killed by the same Boko
Haram.
“The government deceived them into believing
that they were safe only to be killed. It is a pity
that the government is making the whole country
look bad to the world at large.”
Hon. Dino Malaye urged Nigerians to embark on a
bloodless revolution against the government.
He said the government so far had fed Nigerians
on a propaganda of lies upon lies, he said they lie
today and use other lies to cover up on another
day.
“The same government came out and said that it
has Boko Haram in its cabinet. The same
government said they have ruled out negotiations
because they cannot negotiate with ghosts, now
the same government is saying that they are
negotiating with some people, the same
government came out to say that the girls were
found and it came out to be a lie and the same
government said that they know where these girls
are but four months after, saying it had done
nothing about it.
“Now they have come up to say there is a
ceasefire even though there was an attack on
Sunday in Borno, 40 women were abducted in
Adamawa yesterday and as I speak today, there
was an attack in Dambuwal and women were
being driven away in trucks and this same
government say they have taken over
Dambuwal.”
