Former first lady and wife late President Umaru Yar’Adua, Turai, has urged President Goodluck Jonathan to forgive the Boko Haram sect as her late husband did to former militants in the Niger Delta.
Turai said Jonathan should totally ignore advise from all those who are saying he should not grant amnesty to the dreaded Islamic sect because of the number of people they have killed.
Turai said Jonathan should totally ignore advise from all those who are saying he should not grant amnesty to the dreaded Islamic sect because of the number of people they have killed.
Speaking in Lagos on Friday during an Award Gala Night organised by Niger Delta Young Professionals, Turai said, “When Yar’Adua saw that the people in the Niger Delta, particularly the children were dying callously, he (Yar’Adua) took it upon himself to grant amnesty to the militants to ensure lasting peace.
She said Northern youths should be empowered by the government. “There is poverty in the North. What Yar’Adua did in the Niger Delta, let Jonathan do the same thing to the North. Mr. President should not allow his advisers to deceive him. Let him sit down and think about the insecurity in the North,” she stressed.

Jonathan dont have a choice he has to give Boko Haram amnesty. It is must. Nasir
ReplyDeleteYes your excellency.most of GEJ's advisers are incompetent.they should ve advise him long ago.innocent people are dying.since the use of force does not provide the desired result let the tactics change.but trust nigerians some sees this as an opportunity to milk the country dry(security votes).that's why they would do anything to frustrate this amnesty issue.and God ll never allow them.mr.president is on the right track as far as amnesty is concern.
ReplyDeleteIf I may ask you,amnesty for what? Boko Haram severally stated their grievances and terms of compromise.
Delete1. That Western Education is sin and MUST be stopped and eradicated,especially from the Northern Nigeria.
2. That Nigeria MUST be Islamized and Sharia law adopted.
3. That GEJ MUST convert to Islam to continue as the President of their desired Islamic country.
4. That all their members in the prison MUST be released and compensated for infringing on their right,etc.
And my question is,have these conditions been met? At no time has Boko Haram asked for forgiveness of their sins nor denounce their request and reasons for taking up arms against the state(Committing Treason). Who then is asking for this amnesty and for what reason?
Those who are asking for this amnesty are myopic, wicked and are enemies of this country for their is no basis to ask for amnesty. Moreover,if this clamour for any reason whatsoever sees the light of the day,then that is the beginning of the end of the fragile union called Nigeria. This will trigger a vicious circle,and the buck MUST go round all ethnic nationalities in the country as BH is the brain child and architect of the KANURI TRIBE YOUTHS.
Nasir,u r so dumb. Its only in Nigeria that negotiations are made with callous murderers. GEJ has failed 2 discharge his duty as Grand commander of the arm forces. GEJ is hiding sometin 4rm Nigerians. Turai doesn't know wat she is saying. I say NO to amnesty 4 boko haram as this will instigate d rise of other notorious group.

I think its annoying for the northern leaders to still be equating freedom fighters with suicide bombers. The militants had a specific grievance and target but BH has no grievance and their target is all Nigerians. I support whatever that can stop this madness.But the North must be civil in their statements.
ReplyDeleteBoko Haram don't deserve any Amnesty, Niger Delta fought for their own right n they never killed Nigerians unless those that were trying to protect the forigners who took over their farm land in the name crude oil, so they don't deserve it n they can't be compared to Niger Delta....Madam turai don't let us suppect you.

ReplyDeleteNorth elders know everytin abt d bh.By d way Niger-Delta fought a jst course-they resources.Wat is d contribution of d north? If d national wealth will b shared dis way,then Plateau will demand 4 our solid minerials in similar fashion.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what Nigeria is turning to. Total rubbist. That is why we the southwest are beta than them in all ways. We held on to education. I think the solution is justfor us to go our different ways & I'm sure we'll be far better off!
ReplyDeleteI think this lady is one of the sponsors of BOKO HARAM bicos he never wanted GEJ to be President so I am not surprise hearing her saying this rubbish.Giving amnesty to BH will only lead to more dangerous group to emerge.
ReplyDeleteFirst lady, pipelow! Amnesty is underway & it will go round the country very soon.
ReplyDeleteIt is a big NO NO NO to any amnesty for Boko haram. Turai, your husband gave amnesty to freedom fighters in Niger delta, not because he loves Nigeria or peace but because the oil thieves in the North were suffering serious loss of earnings thru bunkering. Obasanjo was fighting the MEND for years and was never going to give in and oil thieves in the north were getting restless as the oil pipes had been cut off. Northern elders were forced to make sure Yaradua hasten the process of amnesty so that business can go on as usual. turai shut the fuck up and continuing mourning ur husband
ReplyDeleteGood Talk!!!! Live long man!!!!
DeleteIt is so sad that a Bill to pay stipends to unemployed graduates was thrown out of the house and in its place the federal government considering amnesty. What message are u sending to the youths. Which is a better deal? generally enhancing the youths in this country by providing stipends to graduate to help them become selfemployed or by selecting a few and spoon feeding them in the name of amnesty. I will be suprised and disapointed with young people in Nigeria if they allow amnesty to succeed without demanding for their share

ReplyDeleteAmnesty my foot!i just can't see d correlatn btw BH and Militant in d Niger delta.BH r devilious elemt wit no regards 2 life and progres of humanity.the militant have a reasonable course by seeking 2 control more of their resources.what is B.H's course.northern leaders r myopic bigot wit negative intellectuals.they r demöns who av endanger lot of lifes.G.E.J,u r G.C.F.R, u av al d powr in ur kitten 2 get rid of these pple.amnesty is nt 4 terrorist like The boko haram sect.damex.
ReplyDeleteNoooo!!!! The Northern Elders Forum(NEF)has failed in their effort to frustrate GEJ out of office as were threatened.Their first strategy of attacking the Igbos hoping that Igbos would retaliate also failed. Now the evil beast they gave birth to has not only grown beyond their control but are hunting them.They are now broke socially,spiritually and financially,that is why amnesty strategy came up.

ReplyDeletePresident Goodluck Might Grant Amnesty To Boko-Haram,Terms And Conditions Inside
jonathan-boko
For the past few days, word has been out that President Goodluck is considering granting amnesty to terrorist sect Boko haram. In fact, so serious is the issue that some reports have it that the President as already caved in to the demands of the group.
Other reports however suggest that no decision has been reached yet. It is said that President Jonathan has set up a committee that will submit its report to the National Security Council (NSC) within two weeks.
If Amnesty is to be granted, here is the package proposed by northern elders:
1. A ministry of Northern affairs must be established
2. Each Boko haram member who embraces the amnesty will receive an initial cash reward of 3 million naira to start up a business.
3. Boko haram members who embrace the amnesty program will be giving a house by the FG
4. Boko haram leaders who embraced the amnesty program will be giving a cash gift of 20 million naira each and other juicy packages will also follow
5. Selected boko haram members from each zone will be taken abroad for training, just as the Niger delta militants enjoyed.
6. Each boko haram member will be on a monthly salary of N100,000 for a period of 3 years.
7. FG must rebuild borno, yobe and other state they claimed the JTF destroyed.
8. Security contract will be given to Boko haram leaders to secure the north.
8. JTF will be completely withdrawn from the northern states, where boko haram operates
First of all, let me state here that Turai is a big uneducated ignorant fool and a disgrace to womanhood and humanhood(if there is any word like that), so i wouldnt waste too much writing on this failure of a woman
ReplyDelete1) Bokoharam is a terrorist group, and for any government to negotiate with a terrorist group means the following
A) that government have failed in the protection of lives and properties(which it swore to uphold as one of its duties)
B) it will mean the end of Nigeria as a country as calls for secession will be more solid
C) a government that is always at the beck and call of any terrorist network has failed....
2) Bokoharam is a terrorist group that has no basis for its senseless attacks and killings, while Niger Delta Militants were rebels whose attacked were calculated and targeted @ government facilities because they were tired of the obvious maltreatment by the federal government upon them.. So, there is no basis of comparing the activities of Bokoharam and that of the militants
3) if there were to be any negotiations between the Government and Bokoharam(which is highly unlikely), the senseless terms put up by Bokoharam for the federal government to meet, is not only stupid and laughable, it is highly impossible
4) so all those idiots calling for amnesty like this stupid illiterate called turai are very very stupidly ignorant and senseless
Kill all those ignorant muslims! No amnesty for boko bitches. Kill 'em wit they forehead on d ground
