Pdp More Serious About 2015 Than Boko Haram, Says Maiduguri Bishop by Johnnyessence(op): 6:58pm On Nov 09, 2014
The Catholic Bishop of Maiduguri Diocese, Rt. Rev. Dr. Oliver Doeme Dashe, has lamented that the federal
government is more committed to the 2015 general elections than the fight against Boko Haram.
He noted that the action of the government at the centre is risking the spread of the insurgency across all
parts of the country, stressing that “government must expedite action towards ending the Boko Haram
insurgency or risk its spread across the country.”
Bishop Dashe, who spoke with our correspondent in Maiduguri, observed that Boko Haram is spreading like
wild fire in the North East states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe with Gombe and Bauchi gradually being listed
in the trail.
The bishop who is in charge of Borno, Yobe and some parts of Adamawa states noted that the activities of
the insurgents have paralysed economic, social, religious, agricultural, among other activities in all the
affected states as people continue to wallow in abject sufferings, adding that, “government seems to be less
concern.”
He criticized the government and lamented, “I wonder what is happening. The government is supposed to be
proactive but the Boko Haram is always ahead of the security personnel and even the plans of the
government. It looks as if the government is more serious with the 2015 elections than this fight against
Boko Haram. Something is basically wrong and I am therefore using this opportunity to call on the
government to act decisively before this cancer spreads.”
The Bishop revealed that out of the 46 Catholic priests working in Maiduguri diocese, 20 are currently
displaced by the activities of the insurgents, while out of the 40 existing parishes 20 are currently deserted,
and of the six existing deaneries, there are now been occupied by the Boko Haram fighters.
He blamed the laxity of the government on the colossal losses of people to the insurgency. thenationonlineng.net/new/fg-more-serious-about-2015-than-boko-haram-says-maiduguri-bishop/

Bros, Leave orisejafor alone, his belly is his god.

Btw, SITREP indicates that Boko Haram captured Malamfatori today, a Border town in Borno state. Maiduguri is almost encirlced and an assault against her is very very imminent

That Bishop is BaJesus and a politician. He should go and preach at Sambisa Forest. Instead of Praying for the Government and Mr. President, he is critizising @ this critical period. What a Bishop! The children of Israel would be on Mountain Top praying fervently for God's Mercy for Israel if they were to be experiencing what Nigeria is facing now. God will destroy bokoharam and its sponsors IJN AMEN!

The fact is gej is too power drunk to know what is right for the people of this country. After he emerges as the president of nigeria after the demise of yaradua, all he has been after is how he is going remain there. What a visionless president.

Father, the earlier u realise this, the better for u. It is not about religion or security for all, but the political interest and the gains they get frm the insurgency.
PDP/gej is getting richer as the war linger on, so they wont end it.

Anybody who thinks that it is acceptable that terrorist are running their own state within Nigerians territory and our commander in chief is going about business as usual is a bigger fool than the commander in chief.

'the bishop shouldn't allow himself be used by the Opposition'..*in Okupe's voice*...lame excuses to 'polish' GEJ's 'oversized shoes' grin. Any concerned nigerian that tries to advice the govt, that person would be politically-labelled, taken to the laundry and hung and dry by the presidential spokesmen..
