The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Yakubu Dogara, has called on Nigerian Christian community, particularly those in North East states to forgive members of the Boko Haram Islamist sect.

He stressed that the country could only make meaningful development when Nigerians begin to forgive one another. He noted that although people’s sources of livelihood and churches were destroyed during the fiery days of the insurgents, the Christian community should, in line with the teachings of Jesus Christ, forgive and look forward to better times.

The Speaker, who is the first northern minority Christian from the core north to hold the highest political office in Nigeria, made this appeal yesterday in Abuja at the Christian Ecumenical Centre, during the diamond anniversary lecture of the Foursquare Gospel Church in Nigeria.


Dogara re-affirmed the right of every Nigerian to subscribe freely to any religion of his choice as long as it suits his or her conscience.


According to him: “The need for sober reflection is particularly important for us in Nigeria, especially in the North-eastern states of Nigeria, where the terrorist group, Boko Haram, which of late, has been flaunting its association with the world terror group, the Islamic State (ISIS), has targeted not only the Church, but also Mosques, children, women and indeed, the entire society, in mindless terror, death and destruction of all that we hold dear.

“The rights of our people as entrenched in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (1999) as amended, to worship and choose their religion has been violated by the terrorists, who left no one in doubt that they want everyone to follow their ways.

“What are the lessons for us today in Nigeria? Christians would need to forgive those who, especially in the last six years, have promoted, strengthened and supported the massive destruction that the Church and others had suffered in the hands of the Boko Haram. But, where else lies the footstep of the saviour except in forgiving? History has shown that the blood of saints cannot be shed in vain‎.”


The Speaker called on clergymen to live above board and be actively involved in nation-building, noting that Christian leaders should not look up to the world for ‎leadership.

“The Church must never look to the world for leadership; rather, the world should look to the Church for leadership,” he stated.

how about NO!

starlingslimnet:
There is no forgivness without repentance.If they repent of their evil and renounce that wicked Religion all good Nigerians will forgive them but that doesn't change the fact that Islamabad.

so what happens to the lives lost?
even when they repent, they must face the law

Another proof that northern elites are sympathetic to BH!! BH appeaser.. In a sane clime, this man would lose his job and attract probing from country Intel services..
But wait, Radio Biafra and its gullible are bigger threat in this jungke called Naija

yorubatic:

Abeg, give BH amnesty and position in the government, they merit it, besides they are northerners too...every northern is honest and qualified for any position. ..unlike the thievery southern people who are dishonest and unqualified ....

These people are evil....apc is evil, north is evil, hausa fulanis are evil. Yorubas are evil, yoruba muslims are worst evil

5,000 likes for you

why won't you like 5,000 times Have been observing you for some time now dude, the way you insult muslims and islam here is so pathetic. You claim to be civilised but I doubt it cos you behave like a sadist and mo*ron But one thing for sure, your ranting and insulting muslims and islam is only here, which is a faceless forum. I dare you to do it some where else and see the reward of it Mtcheewww.

trying to be politically correct to his muslin brother in the north

Obrigardo:
The reality of it all is that as a CHRISTIAN that you prove to be, You must Forgive.
There is no two way about it.
Even some people are now claiming to be Jews, at least they have forgiven Israel for killing Jesus Christ

I am not sure you grasp that specific fundamental of Christianity as it relates to Jesus Christ's death? Isrealites did not 'kill' Jesus Christ.

Are you serious?

This mad needs to get his head examined.

After northern Nigeria has used Boko Haram to capture Aso Rock, it is now forgiveness for Boko Haram.

This is the type of news one gets from an evil country worse than a zoo.

After taking 2 bottles of origin? Bro see ur vex. Doc.

He should first tell his Boko boys to raise those killed back to life, then we can reconsider pardoning them

This speaker is a shame....forgive what......those animals......this is an insult to the families of the dead both civilian and military ones.....totally unacceptable......the boko haram must pay......with their lives......

You can only forgive someone who's repentant. BH are not and so we cannot forgive them. Sorry!



I don dey suspect this man sef........

God is showing their face bit by bit, Dogara should be arrest and investigate. Defiantly he is afraid none of boko animals mention his name surely he is one of boko haram financiers. Dogara God punish you.

DSS should arrest him now with immediate effect. He did not beg his God forsaken father and mother to forgive boko haram when boko haram fell 15,000 Nigeria souls he did not beg his Almanjiri papa to forgive when over 200 innocent Chibok girls were taken away forever but now that the end has come to boko haram and it's time fir confession now he want his useless papa and his useless mother to forgive boko haram Dogara God punish you and your entire generation for asking for forgiveness for these dogs.Now I know APC is boko haram I got it now. Nice one.

when 90% of those affected are Muslims

Forgive Boko, who knows the name the next Islamic extremist group coming from north of Nigeria shall bear?

Calling on Yoruba: this Speaker's plea is part of the too much Deception with the north of Nigeria.
stop being deceived by north which is ruled by Islam. Yoruba is not ruled by Islam.

Accept that Biafrans who are opting out of Nigeria are in order.

Oduduwa Republic with lots of manpower, natural resources is bordering Atlantic ocean.

Development in Yoruba land is being held back by one Nigeria.

Seriously Alot of Nigerians are blind to what is happening in Nigeria , Why do i say so is.. they north is the architect of BH and they have planned it properly .. Northern leaders are lazy and really dont want their people to grow in anyway that's why they keep doing what know how to do best hold everybody to standstill but one day their people will be liberated and it will backfire back at them

kobonaire:

The Jews killed him. Jews in Isreal. Till today Jews don't recognize Jesus as their lord and saviour. In fact BH is child's play compared to how they persecuted the early Christians.
I'm sure you're one of those wannabe Jews. So if you are a Christian. Get that fact right.

North used Boko Haram to capture Aso Rock in 2015.
North wrongly believes that Britain shall give them support again like in the last civil war.
Much of northern Nigeria adopted sharia criminal laws and have not renounced the adoption.

Immediately north adopted sharia, Boko Haram appeared in Nigeria. It fought Jonathan government mercilessly until Jonathan literally resigned. Jonathan hardly wanted second term in 2014. By 2014, Jonathan had been devastated by Boko Haram.

It shall pay north better to have its adopted sharia republic.

Forgive? Seriously?

And let them go scot free and without remorse ?
What political stunt and what nonsense.
Nigeria is straddled by people who have nothing sensible to say but have all the access to the media. Gosh.

His family member was never affected hence this our mumu backstabbing hon talking rubbish
