Respected Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Abubakar Gumi has propounded a solution to the Boko Haram insurgency. He believes that current efforts against the sect would be more successful if handled by a Muslim soldier.
Every individual in this nation is concerned about the future. Nigeria is catalytically deteriorating. Today the national discourse is on corruption and amnesty for terrorism.

We have missed the crux of the matter. Corruption is incurable, it is only suppressed. That is by genuine Ethics/faith illumination campaigns like the Ethical revolution, W.A.I, Re-brand Nigeria etc. and an effective system of accountability (i.e. check and balance) or what can be summed up as good governance. As for the amnesty to Boko Haram it is hypocritical. Boko Haram as an ideology respects no law. Not even the Quran or Hadith or Scholarly fatwa. They have their own interpretation, anything short of that is part of the enemy that should be killed. So on what basis should there be dialogue or amnesty. It is a creed that must be crushed; it is a creed the prophet – alaihis Salam- wished he is alive to exterminate.

... The question today, is who can do that? I say definitely not the present dispensation. Because it lacks the moral high ground to defeat them. Already, a greater amount of innocent people were killed, maimed, tortured and incarcerated by the JTF in the name of fighting Boko Haram than the damage cause by them or those that camouflage behind them. A whole region is made to suffer economically, socially and politically because of this blind war on terror. The present dispensation has everything to gain is refusing the 'amnesty' call for political reasons, that is why it is recalcitrant. Otherwise, if the need to crush BH is genuine, it would have been achieved since.

Let a selected Muslim High ranking officer cadre of the armed forces take charge of this whole ‘operation’ from investigations to incursions. It needs a careful excision and only the person that feels the pains of society has the capacity to carry it out. Like removing a tumor from the brain, you don't give that to an orthopedic surgeon no matter how good to do that. It is an operation of precision not brute force. This choice of tackling a peculiar problem is the sign of good governance. Special missions have special requirements if success is the objective.

BH are armed individuals hiding is a civilian population. They do not control any high fire power to be engaged in a war. Therefore there is absolutely no need -what so ever- to deploy and ultimately exhaust the military in road blocks all over the spheres of their activities. What are needed are very good intelligence, special strike squads and the genuine cooperation of the civilian population which can never be achieved through intimidation.

So when the issue is tackled with the impulses of vengeance and retaliation as the case is now, the whole saga is gradually turning into another thing all together. This is what makes the future bleak and frightening.

He made a very good point by informing the politicians what they feign ignorance.

Boko Haram is an ideology. It's not given for compromise nor can it be appeased.

The only solution for Boko Haram is for it to be crushed.

Islam has denied Boko Boys ideology but the Northern Nigeria and Muslim Politicians are sympathising with them but don't want to identify with them.

Boko Haram is a set up with political and religious undertone that has been mismanaged by those that formed it.

Apart from the part about putting a muslim soldier in charge of operations (I believe the best man should be chosen for the job, regardless of creed or ethnicity), he made some very good points.

Why stop there? We might as well put a Boko soldier in charge of operations. While we are at it, we might as well make an armed robber IG of police and chairman of 419 should be appointed accountant general.

nonsense!

Re: Put A Muslim Soldier In Charge Of Operations Against Boko Haram-sheikh Gumi by Kc3000: 5:50am On Mar 27, 2013
One thing I agree with him is that Boko Haram can only be defeated by genuine cooperation of the civilian population. The intelligence needed to uproot this insurgency can only be obtained from the people these Boko Haram agents reside with. These are not ghosts, people know when they observe suspicious individuals and activities in their locality. They must have bases and hideouts in the area from where they coordinate their attacks. Civilians have to take a proactive role in identifying and reporting these things to the JTF. I can't say with any certainty how the average northern Muslim feels about Boko Haram, but the day they collectively decide to end this menace, that would be the day it ends.

malele: this SHEIKH GUMI is a big fool

And you are the biggest foooool

Gumi suggestion is not a bad Idea, because during the time of militancy in Niger-delta before the amnesty. a lot of JTF army lost their life in that region, because most of them were not familiar with the terrine(creek) where they are protecting.
Samething could be happening in north, an aboki(civilian) will easily pass information to a JTF army if he know that the JTF soldier is a muslim and hausa man like him. Similarly a JTF army(hausa/muslim) could easily know a BH member and deal with them since is also from that region.
IF ONLY those ARMY are dedicated to FG

You should know better, yes.

Have you forgotten so quick, how northern Muslims have always aided Boko Haram members to escape from police custody? Or give them information to avoid being arrested or killed?

Say no to that rubbish.

This same cry that led to Azizi's exit and Dansuki emerging. What has the new NSA achieved so far?

I say stay course GEJ, the increasing gale of cries for amnesty by sympathisers and sponsors only mean they are worried their investments are going down the drain with increasing boko haram losses. Pay no mind to Gumi and his mind games.

Lots of Nigerians condemned the Sultan for calling for amnesty for the evil sect. Now Sheikh Gunmi has condemned the amnesty request as hypocritical because the sect is an enemy of Islam that needs to be crushed, not soothed. Unfortunately, lots of commentators here have chosen to ignore that part of his statement due to their unbridled hatred for the man! Stereotyping the entire Muslim community will take us farther away from the solution, not closer to it.

This "Sheikh" should be ashamed of his ni.gga behind. His mets in Dubai have turned their country into paradise, those in Saudi have good roads and world class airports, yet he is what the Arabs and Europeans think he is- a black from the Ni.gga Area.

"Put a Muslim as commander" and all Nigeria's woes will vanish abi?

Meanwhile the North has the bulk of allocation, international airports, minerstrial positions, majority in legislature, and yet they are looting and looting.

Nonsense
