Military Fighter Jets Drop Flyers From Boko Haram Warning Against Voting by Nobody: 7:41pm On Feb 20, 2015
Fighter jets which can
only be military jets
[that can be flying in
Nigerian airspace] have
been seen dropping
Boko Haram propaganda
flyers in Gombi,
Adamawa state. There
was confusion in Gombi
as the jets dropped
flyers of a sort of Boko
Haram splinter group as
it appears, containing
apology messages to
the people but at the
same time warning
them once again to not
go to the polls in the
postponed March 28th
general elections.
This is the second time
in recent weeks that
Boko Haram has
distributed flyers
warning northerners
not to go to the polls.
The last episode, Boko
Haram surprisingly
briefly captured Gombe
town, Gombe state and
distributed such flyers
before leaving. As the
group is finally being
defeated this last hour
by the Jonathan
government that sees
the terminating of Boko
Haram, critical to
attempt to rescue an
impending ruling party
defeat, the group
seems to be sending
out last messages
against the polls as the
last duty in their
‘contract’. Analysis of
the messages showed
spellings and
pronunciations that
appeared Nigerien or
Chadian and not Nigerian
Hausa. The flyers were
signed by towns,
Gamboru, Damask and
Alagamo. In a recent
video Boko Haram
leader, “Abubakar
Shekau” once again
took the elections very
seriously and swore
that even if they die in
the process, they will
try to disrupt the
elections.
It appears Boko Haram
is very interested as
with the ruling People’s
Democratic Pary, PDP to
shelve the elections
that favor the anti-
corruption opposition
candidate, General
Muhammadu Buhari.
Boko Haram also
appears hell-bent on
trying to reduce the
population who will go
out to vote in Nigeria’s
north. From recent
rallies, the opposition
has swept the north
and has almost 90%
support with about
74% support in the
south of the nation,
while the ruling party
has had very little
support in Nigeria and
less still in the nation’s
north.
Since the defeat of the
ruling party became
apparent with the
February 14th
presidential polls having
had to be shifted by the
ruling party to prevent
an early defeat, Boko
Haram seems to be
aggressively promoting
agenda to obstruct the
democratic process
including with videos
and tweets on its new
twitter handle and
flyers distributed
successfully in unusual
locations in spite of the
full military clampdown.
A rough translation is
below:
Translation
We started this jihad of
Ahlis sunna lidda'awati
together as one. We
sleep together, we eat
and drink together. We
studied the Holy Quran
and prayed together in
the early days of this
Jihad. Those of us that
are doing the work of
God for the past 5yrs
today. We have to
realize today that we
are being used for
selfish and corrupt
reasons. We have
reached a situation
whereby our leaders are
enjoying and we are
suffering in the name
of jihad.
The Holy Quran in 8;61
has told us that the
religion of islam of
peace. Again the Holy
Quran has been very
clear on the rules of
jihad in 2;190. And again
in 6;151 that no one
should kill and that life
is sacred and it belongs
to God.
Though we started
good(in honor) with
preaching and teaching
rules of Islam. We have
woken up today to burn
villages and kill those
who have done nothing
to us especially
Christians without any
just cause. We have
sent people away from
their homes and
villages. And we have
killed Muslims even
though the Quran has
forbidden so in 4;-29-30.
All the properties we
found in those villages
and towns were parked
and sold on the streets
of Ndjamena Chad,
Bosso Niger, and Fotokol
Cameroon. And the
proceed went to their
pockets calling
themselves our leaders.
even though its
supposed to be for our
jihad. And calling for
more in destroying our
country for no reason.
