Malubi: [/color][color=#006600] It seems some people dont understand English. Asari's statement is a conditional statement that has no legal implication against him. He said 'IF SOMETHING HAPPEN TO JONATHAN'. Apart from that what about the people that said they will make Nigeria Ungovernable for Jonathan and are doing it now, are they above the law.

Notherners are not contributing anything towards the developement of Nigeria. And they want to spoil our country (NIGERIA) for us.

Stallion77: Northern interest groups and leaders, yesterday, flayed Ijaw national leader, Chief Edwin Clark’s assertion of the culpability of Northern leaders in the Boko Haram insurgency, describing his claim as extreme ethnic jingoism.

In their various reactions to Clark’s claim of northern conspiracy against the Goodluck Jonathan administration, the northern groups and elders said the depiction of the President as a victim was a wrong assessment of what they separately described as the inability of the regime to address a problem that has spread through ethnic and religious divisions in the north.

The northern leaders’ reaction came in the face of the assertion by Clark at a public lecture in Abuja on Wednesday that powerful northern leaders are orchestrating the Boko Haram insurgency to destabilise the Goodluck Jonathan administration.
Reacting to the assertion, the ACF speaking though its spokesman, Anthony A. Z. Sanni said:

“If Chief Edwin Clark believes Northern Leaders brought about Boko Haram in order to make the country ungovernable for President Jonathan; you in the media should remind him that President Umar Yar’Adua used force and killed 700 members of the sect and their leader in 2009 when there was no politics of zoning.

“What is more, President Jonathan’s ruling party controls about 14 northern states. The numbers 2,3,4 and 5 in the government are from the North. How would the North make the country ungovernable under such situation?

“I have made this point clear that it is unhelpful to associate Boko Haram with a region, with religion or with ethnicity. Were it strategic to think so, America would have associated al-Qaeda with Saudi Arabia or with Islam, since Osama Bin Laden and most of the 19 pilots who brought the New York twin towers down on 9/11 were of Saudi extraction.

“Nigerians passed their judgment and rejected politics of zoning when they voted President Jonathan in 2011. As democrats, northern leaders under ACF congratulated President Jonathan and all those who won their elections. ACF also paid courtesy call on Mr President and urged Nigerians to support the government and that politicians should go to the trenches for 2015 only when the whistle is blown by the authority.

“What else should northern leaders do in order to assure Chief Clark that the security challenges and the national malaise have not been brought about by northern leaders? The media should also help dispel such misconceptions for national interest,” Sani said.

It’s pure blackmail — Arewa youths

The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum, AYCF, in its own reaction described the assertion as pure blackmail that would inevitably compound the problems of the president.

“That is a blackmail and one is not surprised because the elder statesman, though I have respect for him, but sometimes, his utterances seem to compound more trouble for the Niger Delta people and even the president,” Alhaji Yerima Shetimma, the national president of the AYCF told Vanguard yesterday.

“One of the issues they have raised is that often time, when they talk, they say ‘our president, our son’, ‘our oil and our money’, that does not protect the unity of this country; in fact, it is a threat to national unity.

“When there was crisis in the Niger Delta, some of us did not see it as a Niger Delta crisis but as a Nigerian problem. Of what importance will it be to a northerner to sponsor Boko Haram and at the same time, the direct victim is the northerner because, over 99 per cent of victims of Boko Haram are northerners.
”Jonathan did not become President because of the support he had only from the South-south. In fact, some of us did the work for him to be there. Some of us pushed for the Doctrine of Necessity and I was one of the vocal voices that stood and insisted that the right thing must be done. If they continue doing that, they are treading on the wrong path and they might end up ruining. This must stop, this madness must stop. So, nobody should accuse the north, this is blackmail and we will resist it”.

Bukkyade: Terrorists and illiterates will never rule nigerians again. Atiku, Buhari, Elrufai,tunde Bakare and the rest of you,who think we are fools to allow you evil minded people to rule us again should have rethink and maybe fight to have their own country where they will be killing themselves for other region of Nigeria, we are fed up of all the mess. How bamboo go dey work, monkey go dey chop. Just because GEJ took over power you guys have made the country a living hell for us,and you expect us to fold our hands and watch you murders and blood sucking demons to rule us again. The blood of corners, under-age children,mothere, men, women and other innocent you people have spilled in the fight of your greed and hopelessness will continuely put confusion among you people and your generation will forever have a feel of this trauma and misery you have put on Nigerians.

nagoma: Witches and wizards exist only in your churches. No one wants to be in the same country with you either. Take your retardeen along with you and let the north be for NORTHERNERS and south for SOUTHERNERS .

fumisko: Yea is true ooo. Even yesterday on my way to church evrywhere was so quiet, searchings were more thorough. Numerous shops in BARNAWA market did not open. Infact the Hausas or Muslim settlement in BARNAWA market were all standing outside their houses in a long file, waiting to hear the have started in all those Tudun wana side and then commence their massacre. It's so unfortunate we Christians continue to run but when it's not as if we have much of our kids as irresponsible or roaming the streets without even knowing their parents, who then will fight for us. Una we dey talk u fit allow your son go out figh? So thats the problem I

HNosegbe: Actually I support the deployment of troops to Mali. Nigeria is a regional power, and as such she has a responsibility to ensure regional security. Insecurity in countries across our borders, if not contained early, is likely to lead to an exodus of refugees to other countries, Nigeria inclusive.

Besides, a sensible government can use such intervention for its advantage e.g by securing better trade deals, access to resources etc. Sensible Western governments do this all the time, why can't we?
