65 Communities in Niger Sign N20m Peace Deal with Boko Haram

Residents of 65 communities in Niger State have resorted to negotiating and signing a peace deal with Boko Haram to avoid future raids by the insurgents, FIJ can exclusively report.

This development came few days after the terror group displaced over 5,000 villagers from their ancestral homes in Shiroro and Munya local councils.

Abubakar Bello, the Governor of Niger had admitted that Boko Haram had hoisted its flag after taken over many communities in the state.
Although Muhammad Yerima, the Nigerian Army spokesman, said he was unaware of Boko Haram’s incursion into Niger State, Wasiu Abiodun, the police spokesperson in the state, said he could not dispute Governor Bello’s claim about the influx of the terrorist group into the state.

“The executive governor is the chief security officer of the state. Are you expecting the police to dispute or go against the pronouncement of the executive governor?” Abiodun asked a CNN reporter.

However, FIJ has gathered that communities in Gurmana, Manta, Bassa and Kukoki distrists in Shiroro area of the state have negotiated with the terrorists for a peace deal after reaching an agreement to pay certain amounts of money in each community.

The communities have also purchased at least six Honda motorcycles worth N500,000 for the terrorists, to pacify them.

“This is what most of the communities are resorting to. By my records now, communities that have signed the peace deal with the terrorists are more than 40,” said Yusuf Sani, the co-convener of Concerned Shiroro Youth, while confirming the incidents to FIJ.

“While some communities have already sealed up deals for ceasefire with the terrorists and are currently reaping ithe benefits, others are on the verge of finalising theirs.

“The affected victims have been forced to find solutions for themselves within since the much-anticipated intervention from government is not forthcoming.”

Sani also said the communities have paid not less than N20 million to sign the peace deal with the terrorists. He added that although, the negotiation was oral, more communities are planning to enroll for the peace deal.

Mary Joel Merje, the Chief Press Secretary to the Niger State government, did not answer multiple calls from FIJ. She also did not respond to our request for comments on the issue.

If this is true, that means Nigeria is officially a failed State. Now I know why they carried out a bloodless coup against Buhari and succeeded without noise. This Buhari is a weakling, very dormant. Infact Buhari should just resign and go home.
Thank God I'm not in the military, maybe I would've been dead by now because surely I must have done something.
It's better the National assembly do something now than allow those small boys on Khaki to do the needful...
Tufiakwa.

Na normal news from North... Na royalty for BH

SE people, don't let your case be like that... We dey tell you people now, you dey do strong head.

This pikin no kill me go definitely turn to this pikin no kill yourself..

Oya throw the jabbing as usual and ignore the message passed..

Hmmm.

This dastardly act all started like a joke; The unsuspecting and untrained eye played political cards with it. Now, it appears this is saturating the whole region in Nigeria.

Kindly remember that injustice to one is injustice to all. We were all suppose to speak up when this act was sectionalized.

It's official, no state is free; what we have is a minuscule operations in areas adjudged to be free- not that anywhere is safe. Guard your loins! There are times when the available becomes the preferred when the preferred isn't available- each region should protect her people as against waiting for a never-to-come federal might to save them.

God will protect us all; It's appearing that SECURITY has fully overidden FOOD.

what is going on in our country? has it gotten to this? damn! our leaders have failed us. umm i might be wrong though but DURUMI is less than 20 mins from abuja

And there we have it..buhari is our Lord and saviour. Buhari is the most competent president Nigeria would ever have..buhari is the only human being in Nigeria with absolute integrity..buhari this buhari that..now communities are paying ransoms to bokoharam whilst the state and federal governments are dumbfounded on what to do.

The communities even bought bikes for bokoharam to carry on with their reckless abandon and mayhem maybe extending to other communities.. ..failed state..failure everywhere..

Failed governments...

What a country SW/SE I trust una

Abeg I no fit laugh this early morning!
Would those communities still consider themselves as Nigerians? Or citizens of the Islamic state

Pantami, una well done ooooooo

if government can negotiate with them then the affected people can obviously negotiate better. kudos to them. more bokomoney to be shared

what is finishing buhari there is tribalism, nepotism and religion..buhari just can't wholeheartedly extinguish bokoharam, same for other Muslim adherents.. these terrorists are Muslims..you don't expect buhari to annihilate fellow core Muslims who share the same values with him.

I tell you once a very neutral person steers the fight against insurgency bokoharam will surely feel the heat.

May God punish all the sponsors of herdsmen and Boko Haram and the politicians that brought them upon our nation to cause mayhem.
May the people that support and sponsor them all die painfully, and may they suffer so much pains as long as they live on earth before dying in shame.

If you are not one of the people supporting the evil sponsors of these herdsmen,
kindly say A BIG AMEN To these little prayers.

God pass dem.
They will all end miserably in life.

All sponsors and enabler of all the terrorist organizations in our darling country, from this evil Boko Boys, to bandits, Igbos terrorists organization, evil fulani herdsmen must all be fished out.
They will all never know peace as long as it is sorrow, tears and blood they want flowing in our nation.....along with their evil supporters.

Especially all the terrorist organizations (Boko Haram and Igbos terrorist groups) killing our military personnel.
Evil, sorrow, tears and blood shall be their end at the end of it all.

Peace shall reign in our nation.
God bless Nigeria

TroubleMaker47:


A big amen to that!
And may God punish of supporters of a terrorist government that shields terrorists like Pantami, Gumi and Miyetti allah! They their days be short and full of sorrow!
Can i get an amen too?

We answered that before and we will answer that again.
A big amen to that!

gentlestdude:
Amen.

So shall it be!!!
No evil person will escape this calamity.
Never!

Seriously

Buhari is working

It's official. Nigeria is a failed state. If you had any doubt before, now it's clear.

This is a new trend that may become a norm with many communities and states paying monies to terrorists

Later they'll start paying taxes to terrorists

Later they'll pledge allegiance to these terrorists

Then ultimately they'll officially install terrorists as their leaders.

Na so failed state dey start. Well done Buhari and his APC cohorts

God..

This is what a walking ghost has reduced the country to.

It will never be well with Buhari

Thereby empowering them, it's alright.
Citizens are now doing all they can to stay safe and alive. Buhari still doesn't care, what a failure.

The NASS should as a matter of fact, commence impeachment proceedings on the President. He is clearly out of ideas, he never actually had one.

Lobaton

What it simply means is dat with those communities successfully in the bags, they'll move to neighbouring communities and spread their wings.. And yet we are supposed to have a President who neither hears no speaks

Charmingrascal:
It will never be well with Buhari

Amen

Boko Haram Islamic Terrorists would buy more arms and come for more kidnap


Islamic Terrorists only want one thing which is sharia state, ransom is what they use to buy enough weapons till they are set



Hope they get the future ransom ready

So Says the Holy Bible.
AMEN!

The wicked one will never ever know peace in their miserable lives.
Painful deaths, very painful deaths will be their portion for all the violence, calamities and bloodshed they are making the nation go through, all because they lost an election.
The wicked one's blood will be used to wash away the sins of our darling country las las.
