You want to grant amnesty to people that killed ur sons & kidnapped and gang rapped ur wives and daughters?

Sweet Jesus!

Governor Kashim Shettima, I want to assume you're drunk or under the influence of hard drugs when saying that stuff. President Buhari is on his way to crush Boko ndi ara and end their crimes against humanity and you're their making contradictory statements.

APC leadership should as a matter of urgency call this man to order before he turns completely into another Fayose/FFK.

Amnesty ko...smhhhhhh

Your papa.

When a PRESIDENT appoints incompetent and corrupt individuals into office.... Scream CHANGE!!!! with hate and burning vengeance in your eyes.. Over 40,000 Nigerians lost their lives and over 100 thousand are internally displaced because we stood by and let it happen. This is the last destiny train at the last bustop and in our hands we hold our last train tickets.. 50 years after and we have not started our journey. If we fail due to our deafening blissful ignorance or docility, 2015 leads into an era of irreversible chaos. We shall become the largest poorest human jungle on the continent. Remembered for being a fool at 50 in spite of the enormous potential and opportunities.

Amnesty for who ? Your re mad mr governor ask boko haram there problem b4 u give dem amnesty

A newly sworn-in governor deemed fit to see pursuing amnesty for Boko Haram as his immediate priority. What kind of leaders do we have in this country sef? Amnesty for blood suckers. Irony of life.

Leave GEJ out of whatever you d8 or say you guys have succeeded in voting him out 8f office and you still will not let him be, what else do you want from ? Should pay the amnesty with his money, you're not total free from the boko haram activities in your state most especially the chibok girls incident you seem to know so much about boko haram and its weapons, PMB should carryout a full investigation on you and your activities

jaybee3:


Don't you think there might be a slight advantage in having someone they can relate to negotiate with them if Sharia is the single most important thing to them?

We just have to be open minded

JUST SHUT YOUR MOUTH IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY! SILENCE IS GOLDEN.

;Dhahaahahaha...amnesty for bokoharam..

When you remove 'ha' and 'ad' from muhammadu what do you have left? Then You can Boo her ribs

Amnesty my foot

Grant them amnesty and you are indirectly telling other people that crimes against humanity is right and you can reap its benefits, so take up arms.

A govt jus said his mind. You guys are castigating d president that said he will not relax in his effort to tackle security and BBOG. Calm down. He has spoken his own after all everybody have freedom of speech. Let's wait and see.

My dear gov. You are right. Now that they have joined ISIS may we extend the amnesty to ISIS. Thanks

Buhari should not even attempt to reward terrorists. If he does, we shall tear him to shred

noblezone:


Bros, it is a waste of time to negotiate with Islam.
Islam does not negotiate.

Try to address the issue on ground, don't complicate to it. Why do you have to substitute Islam for Boko haram? Try to comprehend what you read before you comment.

zik4ever:
Newly sworn-in Governor of Borno State, Kashim Shettima, on Friday said his new administration would, among other policies, pursue amnesty for members of Boko Haram who are ready to de-radicalise.

Mr. Shettima, who took an oath of office to serve for yet another four years alongside his deputy, Zannah Mustapha, said he would lobby the new federal government of President Muhammadu Buhari to consider granting amnesty to the militants.

Messrs Shettima and Mustapha were sworn in by the state’s chief judge, Kashim Zannah, at the Ramat Square, amidst tight security mounted by soldiers and police officers.

Mr. Shettima’s second inauguration, although low-key, was attended by guests from within and outside Nigeria.

The governor lamented the plight of the millions of Borno residents squatting at various camps of Internally Displaced Persons at the time he was being sworn-in.

Mr. Shettima said his next four years would be dedicated to rebuilding destroyed and lost communities and also pursuing policies that would create jobs and empower the youths.

“I do not intend to spoil the celebration mood today but I simply cannot ignore the fact that as we are gathered here, looking good and so full of excitement, thousands of our fellow sons and daughters of Borno, old and young, including babies that are few days old, are displaced in their own land and country,” he said.

He added that the sad tales of destructions and the faces of “our displaced sons, daughters, brothers and sisters,” told the true story of Borno today.

The governor, who described his swearing in as “a very special day in the long history of Borno”, said his second mandate was in recognition of the effort his administration made in the past four years, “to touch your lives in several areas of human endeavour”.

He acknowledged, however, that the last four years were certainly some of the most tragic and challenging in the thousand-year history of Borno.

“We have gone through the most savage insurgency of the Boko Haram sect, which massacred thousands of our people; especially destroying the cream of Borno youth and ensuring that into the next generation, we will be faced with a demographic crisis that will challenge our creative ingenuity, to overcome,” he said.

The governor said, in spite of all these, his government still managed to remain focused to build the “basic blocks of development, in agriculture, education and empowerment.”

“And we never for a moment abandoned our people,” Mr. Shettima said. “The people appreciated how we worked with sincerity, with commitment and always defending their best interests.”

Mr. Shettima lambasted the government of Goodluck Jonathan, referring to it as “a hostile Federal Government, which lived in denial about the savagery of Boko Haram and which also saw the insurgency from the most perverted, narrow and irresponsible prism, that somehow, the insurgency had been fuelled against it, by the political and other elites of this part of Nigeria.”

“They therefore did only the barest and most perfunctory, to stem the problem. Meanwhile, our people suffered and our communities were systematically laid to waste,” he said. “Democracy became the saving grace for the people.

“With our votes, we threw out a government at the centre, which did not work in the national interest and have now voted into power, President Muhammadu Buhari, who is also being inaugurated into power today in Abuja.”

Mr. Shettima said the people of Borno now have the opportunity to put their problems before a “listening president, who would be willing to assist us with utmost dispatch, to accelerate our development.”

He said in the next four years, he would need the support of all citizens in the quest to rebuild the devastated communities of Borno state.

He promised an all-inclusive “growth that would focus on reconciliation, rehabilitation and reconstruction – the three Rs.

He also reiterated his readiness to give members of Boko Haram a chance for amnesty.

“Unless we want to engage in an endless war of attrition that will be hallmarked by the continuing destruction of lives and property, it becomes imperative that willing members of the Boko Haram sect that want to come out of the bush must be given the opportunity to be de-radicalized and then rehabilitated to become useful citizens of society,” he said.

“It is never easy to accept back into the community, those who have taken up arms, killed, pillaged, raped and destroyed. But in the long run, society must make very expensive choices for peace, reconciliation and development. We are therefore appealing to the Federal Government of Nigeria and the International Community to assist our endeavour in that regard.”

After all the lives lost, all the hardships, rapes, bombings and the gallant lives of our soldiers lost and he dares open his mouth to talk of amnesty. even the devil himself will weep if this happens and may the souls of the innocent that died for no just cause not forgive this man for even suggesting this.

Chukwugekwu:
Haba give Them amnesty please they deserve it ...



or do you like the killing

Amnesty for what? What are they agitating for, to islamize people, killing people for nonsense reasons, can you compare their useless agitation to Niger delta people. If they grant them amnesty ,that means the North is not happy that amnesty was granted to the south. What is the essence of 1 Nigeria. Rubbish

He is the truth must be told.

That's what they've always wanted. They're plaing the script just like we envisaged it;nice one.

calebo101:
Well it's alright to grant then amnesty and use proceeds from groundnut oil sales to fund it. That's perfectly fine.

If they have their eyes on niger delta oil then we may have to remind them one or two things.

I'm with you on this. Do what you have to do.
