"To Stop Boko Haram, Jonathan Should Talk Less, Act More" by falconey(op): 12:00pm On Nov 16, 2014
Vanguard’s regional editor (North), Soni
Daniel, has noticed a pattern in President
Goodluck Jonathan’s handling of the Boko
Haram issue. In his opinion article, he
maintains it has become easy to predict
President Jonathan’s reaction to any attack,
as he would condemn the terrorists and vow
to deal with them. However, it may appear
that the stronger he President’s remarks
are, the more ruthless the terrorists
become.
Mr. Daniel then lists a number of occasions
when President Jonathan was forced to
condemn the actions of Boko Haram after yet
another attack, or promised to curb Boko
Haram’s activities in his speeches on various
political occasions.
After the Boko Haram’s November 10th, 2014,
attack on the Government Science School in
Potiskum, Yobe State, when scores of young
students were killed, Jonathan has promised to
“bring to justice” all those responsible for the
crime and “make them pay”
After Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.) was
attacked by Boko Haram in Kaduna on July 23,
2013, President Jonathan assured that the
Federal Government would continue and further
intensify its ongoing efforts to effectively curb
the menace of terrorism in the country. Again,
he denounced the “dastardly targeting of the
prominent political and religious leaders by
terrorists and enemies of the nation in an
odious attempt to inflame passions and
exacerbate disquiet, fear, insecurity and
sectional divisions in the country.”
In April, hundreds of Chibok town (Borno
State) schoolgirls were kidnapped from their
dormitories by Boko Haram, and, on the same
day, the tragic bombong in Nyanya, Abuja’s
suburb, occured. In May, a number of bombs
went off in various parts of Nigeria, killing and
injuring hundreds. Again, President Jonathan
condemned Boko Haram’s actions and assured
of the Army’s and securoty forces’ ceaseless
efforts to bring terrorism to a halt in Nigeria.
Ever since the Boko Haram’s ‘advent’ in Nigeria,
Mr. Daniel points out, President Jonathan uses
pretty much same words, expressions and
promises. Instead of talking about Boko Haram,
the President should consider starting to work
more to end the terror.

Agreed,but all who believe this Boko Haram is evil should join in the fray instead of fault-finding alone.Those who are saboteurs should know that people are watching.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
― Theodore Roosevelt
