[size=14pt]Spain judge opens terrorism case against Boko Haram[/size]

on May 28, 2015 at 2:39 pm

A Spanish High Court judge said Thursday he has agreed to hear a lawsuit against Nigerian Islamist militant group Boko Haram and its leader Abubakar Shekau for crimes against humanity and terrorism.

Judge Fernando Andreu ruled he was competent to handle the case under the principle of universal jurisdiction — which allows courts to try certain atrocities committed in other countries — because the case concerns a Spanish nun who is a victim of the group.

Spanish public prosecutors accused Boko Haram in its lawsuit of “harassing” and “putting pressure” on the nun in March 2013 in Nigeria as part of “a generalised context of actions of a terrorist nature by the jihadist organisation”.

Boko Haram has killed thousands of people in Nigeria during a six-year insurgency to carve out an Islamic caliphate. It has also staged cross-border attacks in Chad, Cameroon and Niger.

Who would now represent boko haram since they're now either governors or senators?

Am sure the buko hari president won't go either, this is going to be one long movie.

And all of a sudden

It doesn't matter that someone condemned the attack of the military on Bokoharam

It doesn't matter that someone described an attack on Bokoharam as an attack on the north

It doesn't matter that someone urged muslims to vote only muslims in a secullar country like Nigeria

It doesn't matter that someone committed to the spread of sharia across the country (the feasibility is a diff topic)

It doesn't matter that someone instigated the death of over 1000 Nigerians just because he lost an election in 2011

It doesn't matter that someone enacted retroactive laws to deal with a select set of people

It doesn't matter anymore that someone ended democracy with the barrel of a gun to assume office

Does it really not matter anymore..... Time shall tell.

We might have just killed morality and damned our sensibilities to the HOPE of a better Nigeria.

And please don't tell me he is my president for the next 4 or 8 Years cos I know that already and that is not the thrust of my thought process.

In sane societies, these would matter. Even if he wins such elections, he would be approached with so much consciousness and carefulness but not with all open arms because the words of a man defines a man and people hardly change.

Just before you scream Sai Baba..... Something must be wrong with the black race.

Boko haram is killing Nigerians and this "Osuofia" Spanish judge sits in the comfort of his chambers to spew rubbish.

Why not come down to Borno, Nigeria and give your judgement. Ewu

This only happen when your Judicial system is in mess.

A judicial system that found ibori not guilty of over 106 count charges and a UK court did.

A Judicial system that set free a pension thieve who stole hundreds of million with just a few thousands as bail terms.

A Judicial system, that could not persecute someone who was to have masterminded the Nyanya bomb explosion despite all evidence and confession made available.

A Judicial system that jail goat for and dogs for roaming the street in Osun but set free corrupt government officials that stole billions of naira and plunge our nation into debt.

A judicial system having hypocrites like Falana who only recite the constitution when wanting to defend his party but fail to see judicial system ground to a half in rivers state over 1 year.

The Spanish judge can as well come help us with the case of all corrupt government officials and subsidy thieves in our country
