Apparently regretting his rapprochement with terrorists in Katsina State, Governor, Aminu Bello Masari, has vowed not to negotiate or trust the hoodlums again because of their nefarious activities despite the two peace deals he had with them.

The governor added that with the benefit of hindsight, his government should never have negotiated with the terrorists, let alone grant them amnesty because “they are not propagating any ideology, they are criminals.”

Masari explained that some of the ‘so-called repentant’ terrorists who were released from custody as a result of the peace deals are now leaders of terrorists with more than 100 gangs and various camps in Zamfara, Sokoto and Katsina states.

In an interactive session with members of a high-powered foreign delegation led by the Head of United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Nigeria, Mohammed Yahya, at the Government House, Katsina, Masari insisted there was no need to negotiate with the criminals.

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) Representative in Nigeria, Peter Hawkins, Head of Cooperation, European Union in Nigeria, Cécile Tassin-Pelzer and Norway Ambassador to Nigeria, Knut Eiliv Lein, were among the delegation.

Although Governor Masari said he never regretted his decision at the time, he admitted that information available to him confirmed that engaging the terrorists who had killed and raped innocent citizens in the state was not the right thing to do.

Consequently, he urged the United Nations Development Programme, European Union (EU) and the United Nations (UN) to support the Nigerian government with the provision of technologies that will enable security agencies to have access to the nation’s ungoverned forest areas.

He said: “Because they (terrorists) said they are Muslims, we went as far as asking them to swear to the Holy Qur’an that they will never participate in banditry again. All of them did in this office but even those that have been in jail for over two years that were brought out are today bandits’ leaders.

“In fact, I will never trust them again because we realised they are not ideologically inclined. So, we are negotiating with thieves. Anybody who says he is going to engage them on anything is free. I will pray for him but I will not do it again.

"They have failed me once; they have failed me twice so I will be a fool to go the same way. And you even see the Zamfara governor who engaged them. They have failed him more than three times.”

Masari added: “They are common criminals. Even in Katsina not to talk of Zamfara, there are more than 100 gangs: a gang of two, three, four and a gang of 10, so with whom are you going to talk?”

Buhari, a good man with evil Intentions

Lol

Taqiyah on the beat

Family business. Guess these were those who gave these terrorists the ideological inspiration to remain deadly?

Back then they were accusing the previous govt of failure to contain the same insecurity they instigated for political reasons while they wickedly connived with the same terrorists. Today, the chicken has come home to roost.

When Nnamdi Kanu said ESN will never negotiate with terrorists or arrest them to be judged but rather send them to God to be judged, fools and terrorists sympathetizers were foaming in the mouth.

I guess their eyes are clear now

We hear u.

Wrong, negotiate as usual, arm the fulani terrorists. Give them ruga and livestock funds, use helicopters to supply them arms, leave them to kidnap and kill and pillage.

Pay them and fund their arsenal. Use them against parts of your states and country that don't practice same religion. They will not turn their guns and face you later.

ESN is itself a terrorist organization.

Maybe he is now broke

H

Hehehe.

Good morning sir,you just da wake up. Clowns everywhere.

Masari, onikuuuuuure!

As if they are not the sponsors of terrorism in Nigeria.

2023 is close by
Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not qualified to lead Nigeria,we can not afford to install another old and sick man that urinates and suffers from parkinson disease for another 8yrs,we Nigerians can do better by electing a qualified candidate irrespective of his or her tribe....God bless Nigeria.

Some terrorists sympathyzers here on nairaland will not like this news...

We don't sympatize with terrorists..I stand with America, I stand with Nasir Ahmad el-Rufai

Days to election

..So says a terrorist

Right from the get-go, the northern
governors negotiated with those criminals
because Buhari told them to do so.❌
❗️
We all see that any of Buhari's ideas
always lead to failure because the man
only thinks along religious and ethnic
lines.❌
❗️
The man totally lacks the qualities of a
leader and should never have been
more than a Muslim village head or
religious leader...❌

Lol
When we were saying it was wrong to negotiate with terrorists or grant them amnesty.
Nairaland jihadists, zombies and terrorists sympathizers were spewing rubbish, they were comparing Fulani terrorists who have no reasonable thing that they are fighting and killing people for with Niger Delta militants who were fighting for what was right.
They should continue negotiating with them.
Had I know Is always synonymous with foolish people.

What a fooking ediat.

So when he thought they were driven by ideology, no problem?


This is actually why the war on BH will never be won in the North. Because bh and most of the Muslim North actually want the same thing - an Islamist state.

It is only a difference of methodology

naso dem dey talk

ivolt:

ESN is itself a terrorist organization.

Only in your dumboharist skull.

This is what the Igbo political and religious leaders should learn from. The earlier they realize that you don’t appease terrorists like Ipigs/ESN, the better for you on long term basis.
The hunchback cannibal, namadi cownu and his brainless Ipob bingos must kpai before president Buhari leaves office

No continue na, this is just the beginning

Why na? When we want to crown you chief terrorist negotiator

Oyyana

Nendans:
There's surely something someone is not telling us

Definitely and that is what we want to know. They know how to keep secrets

ivolt:

ESN is itself a terrorist organization.

True

You'd wonder who the terrorist is?

Between Masari and the so called "Terrorists". Who terrorizes the people more?

Again

Why were you negotiating with them in the first place if ur not a terrorist yourself ❓
