The pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, has condemned the blasts in Jos with a call on the Federal Government to move beyond condemnation of the attacks and unmask the masterminds. The group also commiserated with all families that had been bereaved by the latest terror attacks and prayed that God would grant them the fortitude to bear the losses “and our leaders the strength and courage to do the needful to arrest this dangerous careering to the precipice.”
A statement issued on Wednesday in Abuja by its National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Yinka Odumakin, said the sophistication of Boko Haram operations clearly indicated that its activities were fully backed by forces that could be traced.
The statement read, “The scope, spread, preciseness and timing of these ruthless and devastating attacks clearly suggest that this is a carefully planned and orchestrated war by sophisticated forces using the Boko Haram as a franchise. It is clear that this is a war for the soul of Nigeria and the coordinators do not care how many lives it takes for them to achieve their devilish objective.
“We cannot continue to bury the dead, sympathising with the wounded and waiting for where the next bomb will explode. We restate again that we do not want to accept that there are no security inklings as to those enabling this murderous outfit. Why is it so difficult to unmask them and wait for heavens to fall?
“How long shall we wait for them to harvest innocent souls in this atrocious war? We know how long it took America to get Osama Bin Ladin but it can’t be that difficult to move against the sponsors of terror so as to cut off their supplies.
“In a country where residents of the best cities find internet access very difficult, Shekau who is supposed to be in some forests loads 50 minutes video on YouTube at the drop of the hat. Are we being told there is no IP address for all his internet operations?”
While commending all the Bring BackTheGirls protests, campaigns aimed at mounting pressure for the release of abducted female students of Government Secondary School in Chibok, Borno State, Odumakin pointed out that the message should go from the symptoms to the disease.
“The abduction of the girls is just one of the many faces of this terror. An almost equal number of the Chibok girls must have been wiped out in Jos, do we now start “BringBackThe Dead” protests?. The campaign must be holistic and the overall goal should be ending this reign of terror that the Boko Haram terrorists are foisting on us. We must do this before they precipitate a war of everyone against everybody”, he stated.
