"Jonathan’s government is behind Boko Haram – Northern Governors tell Obama" - By Political Editor on March 27, 2014

During a meeting between twelve Northern Governors, and key officials of President Obama’s cabinet, several governors belonging to the platform of the All Progressives Congress told U.S officials that the Jonathan administration was suspected by them to be aiding the insurgents causing terror in the North.

The startling accusation is said to have caused Prof Ade Adefuye, the Nigerian ambassador to the United States to come to the defense of the GEJ administration but not before the damage had already been done.

Guardian reports:

WITH top U.S. government officials, including President Barack Obama’s National Security Adviser, Ms. Susan Rice, who was presiding, the issue of Boko Haram, 2015 elections and corruption among the Nigerian political elite became a hot debate at the White House earlier last week.

A meeting of 12 Northern State governors (and a deputy governor) and the US government on Tuesday in Washington DC took a dramatic turn when some of the governors, especially Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State, initiated a frontal attack on President Goodluck Jonathan, forcing the Nigeria’s Ambassador to the U.S., Ade Adefuye, who was also in attendance, to join the fray, objecting to some of the comments against the President and the Federal Government.

Although Nyako was said to be the most vocal, he was not alone in raising critical views about the president and his policies, as the Borno and Kano State Governors also knocked hard on the Jonathan presidency.

The meeting was organised by the US government, through the US Institute of Peace, with a view to exploring how the Americans can work together with state governments in the North to address the Boko Haram insurgency and the underlying problem of socio-economic under-development in the region.

Present at the meeting in the Washington DC were governors Nyako (Adamawa), Isa Yuguda (Bauchi), Kashim Shetima (Borno), Ibrahim Dankwambo (Gombe), Rabiu Kwankwaso (Kano), Ibrahim Shema (Katsina) and Abdulfattah Ahmed (Kwara).

Others are Babangida Aliyu (Niger), Aliyu Wammako (Sokoto), Abdulaziz Yari (Zamfara), Idris Wada (Kogi), Usman Dakingari (Kebbi) and Prof. Ade Adefuye.

In attendance on the US side (in addition to Rice) were: Ambassador Johnnie Carson, Adviser (United States Institute of Peace), Mr. Grant Harris, Special Adviser to President Obama on Africa, Mr. John Mohr – Senior Staff Member – National Security Council and Assistant Secretary of State for Africa, Ms Linda Thomas-Greenfield.

Authoritative sources disclosed to The Guardian that Nyako, a former PDP governor, who switched camp to the APC, raised very sensitive issues, including allegations that the Federal Government failed to block importation of weapons into the country; weapons, which are being used to fuel the Boko Haram insurgency.

Nyako also alleged that federal security agencies were colluding with backers of Boko Haram to perpetuate the conflict in the North. He said such security agencies were the ones facilitating the clearance of arms and ammunitions through the border and transporting same to the terrorists.

The Adamawa State governor, who was said to have caused a grim silence by his allegations at the White House meeting, also claimed that the Jonathan presidency refused to identify Boko Haram sponsors despite arrest of some of the members.

He cited particular instances where the military JTF were withdrawn in some of the locations in the three states where the terrorists’ activities have been intense, just in time for the terrorists to attack those locations. According to Governor Nyako, he was convinced that information was being passed from the security agencies to help the terrorists.

But Nyako’s main allegation was the motive behind the alleged collusion, which he said is a way to reduce the voting power of the North East in 2015 and subsequent polls, and keep the region perpetually underdeveloped.

It took the spirited response of the Nigerian Ambassador to the USA, Adefuye, and some of the other governors to halt Nyako’s allegations. Sources said Adefuye challenged Nyako to provide evidence for his allegations, and tongue-lashed him for playing politics of 2015 at the meeting.

Adefuye “did not take kindly to the allegations,” and the fact that the meeting was used by Nyako in particular to attack President Jonathan and the Federal Government, sources disclosed.

The source said the Ambassador “had to call Nyako to order,” and even sought the intervention of the organisers and other participants to ensure that the meeting did not turn into a forum to “wash Nigeria’s linen in public.” Sources said hot heads cooled after the Ambassador’s intervention.

Besides the Ambassador, the Governor of Kogi also opposed Nyako, especially explaining that the examples the Adamawa governor gave regarding how JTF people retreated from a location just before Boko Haram attacked were just coincidental.

Other Governors, who were critical over the Boko Haram issue, included the Borno Governor, Shettima, who also criticised the President and the Federal Government’s handling of the Boko Haram insurgency. However, Shettima also hoped that the insurgency would soon abate, urging for accelerated developmental projects in the affected states.

Hehehehehehehehehehe hehehehehehehehehehe hehehehehehehehehe hehehehehehehehehehe....Not only Oklahoma, It's Okene!

Was it a terrorist attack?

SeverusSnape:
Oh!!... I LIKE FANI KAYODE!!!
The guy is mouthed.

SeverusSnape:
Mr. Man you're funny, you're comparing 9/11 to Nyanya.
Besides, that was the first time there was a terror attack on US soil, so you can't compare the two scenarios.

Mogidi:
Please can you point me to where I said the above.

Mogidi:
@ suwailad
Are you Hausas so stupid you'd allow someone from a minority state to decimate your land?

Mogidi:
Does it surprise you the ragtag army of Cameroon and Chad came to destroy boko haram? The soldiers from Cameroon and Chad came with the sole purpose of defeating boko haram. They succeeded where the mighty Nigerian Army (3rd behind Egypt and South Africa) failed. Even our civilian counter insurgency did more in protecting their towns than the Nigerian army.
Am waiting for you to explain why our arms mysteriously ends up on the side of boko haram. Whilst at it, please explain why boko haram always know the time of attack by the Nigerian army.

SeverusSnape:
For the dancing, I support GEJ, At least a message has been passed across to the foolish terrorists that they can't hold the country to ransom. Never!... SO BECAUSE OF TERRORISTS, WE SHOULD NOT HAVE FUN.... EH?
THAT IS THEIR MODUS OPERANDI; SPREADING TERROR, WE MUSTN'T GIVE IN TO THEM BY ALWAYS BEING SOBER AND AFRAID.

At least a message has been passed across to the foolish terrorists that they can't hold the country to ransom. Never!.

Mogidi:
The corruption of these soldiers started from the mosque, lets be honest

Mogidi:
Soldiers were sent there to do the job they were paid to do but didn't.
Northern soldiers saw boko haram initially as fighting for northern interest. Arms sent to our battalions were mysteriously falling into the hands of boko haram. The USA and Nato couldn't defeat the Taliban since the Taliban had local support, there's nothing any President can do if soldiers sent to war refuse to fight.

SeverusSnape:
Hehehehehehehehehehe... "I don't have time to show you links", as if you have links.
Show me the links let me see....instead of spreading unfounded lies all over the place.

PDM in SW- Jonathan
SW people- Jonathan.

SeverusSnape:
Tah!... STOP saying what you dont know, How can you say "mostly"?... Like it or not, Boko haram is made up mainly of Kanuris(shura Council), Hausa, Fulanis (foot soldiers) and all these people are Nigerians. (... It pains me to call them Nigerians)

Mogidi:
It doesn't make sense and usually if something doesn't make sense you know it was conveniently made up.

SeverusSnape:
Help me ask him/her. How is it possible for Jonathan to use northerners to decimate their own land
