Boko Haram gives conditions for dialogue (Page 2)

Dis pple dey seriously craze.

there's really not much of a difference between this Boko Haram struggle and that Niger Delta militants.let's not bring this "we do not negotiate with terrorist"
argument.what is good for Niger Delta militants is good for Boko Haram

Nigeria has no national inteligence, imagine rif rafs like this telling the Nigerian govenment what to do,
This problem in the first place was instigated when Sharia was allowed in some states in the north
Sharia does not bring development, rather it brings problems and killings all in the name of Allah.

If the fed govt are dull on this, may be its time MEND should launch a counter attack on the hausas cause we all
know that Babangi, former national cheif security advicer, Alahji Gasua and Atiku Abubakar who refused to come to Jonathan inauguration
has hand in all this crap,trying their best to make nigeria ungovernable for Jonathan so dat his leadeship can be undermined by the Nigeria people.

Its time MEND respond to the hausa with their own bombing, so that We the Igbos will cross our legs and smile, at least this will make them
undastand why we faught Biafran War, cause under no cercumstances does the Hausas deserve to live together with any other tribe,


The truth is bitter but must be said, Boko haram is a by product of acceptance of sharia law in some part of the North......With no Sharia,there will be no Boko haram

*Gucci Man*

Leaders of the Jama’atu Ahliss-Sunnah Lidda’awati Wal Jihad, popularly known as Boko Haram, have told Daily Trust in an interview that the dialogue being offered to them will not be possible under atmosphere of the threats of use of force by security agencies.

 

Spokesman for the group Abu Zaid said, “A true believer will not allow himself to be attacked twice.”

The interview was conducted by phone and email in Hausa language. A Daily Trust reporter who has been reporting the activities of the group gave the questions by phone to Abu Zaid, who has been speaking on behalf of the sect.

The group has claimed responsibility for last week’s deadly bomb attack on the police headquarters in Abuja and persistent gun raids in Maiduguri, Borno State, prompting calls for dialogue between the government and its leaders.

Responding to these calls, Abu Zaid said, “We have been signing agreement with them (government) but they have been reneging and now they want us to surrender our arms whereas they are terrorizing Islam and Muslims just like what happened two years ago.

“The Inspector General of Police recently said that he will deal with us within two weeks because he believes he controls our lives. And look at how the governor of Borno State (Kashim Shettima) donated 10 armour personnel carriers to the police while the Nigerian President (Goodluck Jonathan) directed that more soldiers and mobile police be deployed to attack us. Is this move aimed at achieving a dialogue?”

He added: “I think they are equipping themselves more and they want us to surrender our arms. Despite these contradictions, they (authorities) are telling the public that they want to engage us in dialogue. Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him said a believer should not allow himself to be attacked twice in one place.”

He acknowledged that Islam encourages dialogue when certain conditions are met. “It is mandatory for Islam to have a sovereign land where Sharia is being practiced in the strict sense so that the dialogue will be between the Islamic country and the country of the unbelievers,” he said.

He said the sect members will not also lay down their arms even as he claimed responsibility of the attacks launched in parts of the North and Abuja.
“Some unpatriotic scholars gave them misleading justification on the need to attack us and the Federal Government under Umaru Yar’adua gave the open directive to attack Muslims which led to the destruction of their mosque and desecration of the Holy Qur’an as well as ill treatment of innocent women and children.

“We want people to know that the Federal Government fought us and therefore, by the grace of Allah, we would continue fighting until we succeed or die in the process,” he said.

Abu Zaid said the sect members would continue to trail former governors of Borno and Gombe states as well as the Bauchi State governor until they apologise for approving attacks on the Boko Haram sect.

“We would not relent in our efforts of searching for them until they come out publicly and apologize. They must also distance themselves from this illegal democracy and give unalloyed support towards entrenching Sharia system,” he said.
