Jonathan, Buhari, PDP, APC: Who Is Behind Boko Haram? by Nobody: 7:23am On Jul 24, 2014 |
Politicians and Political Sympathisers have been throwing verbal accusations against each other since the Boko Haram insurgency began. While Majority of Jonathan's/PDP sympathisers accuse the Opposition APC and General Buhari of behind the insurgency to discredit the administration, Buhari/APC's supporters on the other hand accused the Jonathan's Administration and the PDP of being behind it to distabilize the North and blackmail opposition. As a Neutral-whos neither here nor there, here's my own independent analysis. 1. President Jonathan: Jonathan is relatively new in Nigeria's political scene. His ascension to Power was "miraculous", which was after the insurgency had began. Yes he lack the sophistication to tackle the insurgency, but it will amount to insanity to link him with it. With the targeted attack on his biggest critic and political opponent, Buhari, it was clear that some people are trying so hard to rope him in. Gej is nt behind it. 2. Gen Buhari: the former head of State may have made reckless statements in the past(or his statements may have been misunderstood), but from the targeted attack on him yesterday, it removed every doubt in my mind that he is behind the group. Add to this, he doesn't have the kind of funds needed to finance such group. Buhari is not behind the insurgency. The perpetrators of the attack deliberately plotted the assassination to implicate President Jonathan for their selfish interest. 3. PDP: Gen Azizi declared that some PDP chieftains are behind it". This statement means a lot and ordinarily shd carry its own weight. While I commend the bold step of Azazi, I expectedd him to have specifically mentioned names and make arrest for prosecution with evidence to back up. I won't believe PDP is behind it, but I want to believe that some Power Brokers within the PDP from North and South have their hands in it. Azazi was "killed" in a crash shortly after, which further raises suspiction. 4. APC: Just like the PDP, there are some Powerful powerbrokers within the APC that are profiting from the insurgency politically and financially. They include gun-runners, office holders, aspirants and praise-singers. 5. The Government: Jonathan once said that BH are in the Govt. Considering the sophistication of their activities, one doesn't need to be a Prophet to know that BH "ogas" are littered in the Executive, Judiciary, Parliament, Military, Police Force, DSS etc. They leak information and intelligence to the "field fighters". 6. Senator Ali Ndume: DSS alleged that the serving Senator made phone calls with insurgents. I commend the DSS but it would have been better if they had done thorough investigation b4 making things public.he remains a suspect. 7. Ali Modu Sheriff: Many has been accusing the former governor but all without "traceable fact". Its very difficult to ascertain the sponsors and backers. ONE "Group" that will help give us clue are the Policemen that killed Mohammed Yusuf inside Police cell. The Govt should suspend their Prosecution and unravel the reasons behind killing of a suspect in custody. Who gave the Killing Order? We can start from there! Pls share your own thought, let us see how we can assist the government and the people of Nigeria to apprehend these perpetrators. 1 Like |

If you want understand this issue?See BOKOHARAM as BOKOHARAM or a radical group that want to create chaos to fulfilled their goal. Politicians are using this unfortunate event to give their opponents a bad name. they hired lie peddlers to spread the rumours to confuse the gullible minds. Both APC and PDP or these politicians need Nigeria as one to rule, steal and rip the public. But BOKOHARAM Haram are more threatening to this country oneness than anything before.because of this politicians foolishness boko are winning and if they won they 'll grow and consume a lot more innocents live. Gov't should at least open a door for every concerned citizen to offer solution to this issue. The way people in north believed Jonathan and PDP are BOKOHARAM and people in the south also see buhari and APC as BOKOHARAM is dumb funny. 2 Likes |

APContherun:yu are so right. BH Sponsors are indeed powerful people. I agree with Azazi that they are in PDP but I strongly believe that they are also in opposition parties. They may be manipulating some Key Figures of their parties with deceptive advice and all. In the party, they are "Trusted" Aides. They are also in the Govt- Yes Jonathan should be very careful of the enemies WITHIN. They are everywhere, including the private sector |

Does it matter? The bottom line is we have a govt headed by Jonathan that is currently failing in her primary duty to secure lives and properties of Nigerians. A govt that have seen more innocent Nigerians die since the civil war. A govt that has given so much condolences to her people than the dividend if democracy itself. A government headed by "His Foolishness, Egbere Retardeeen Jonathan " the chief drunkard of otuoke clan, the chief fool of committe of Presidents worldwide. That is the koko. Be it killer party, apc, Buhari etc, Jonathan is handsomely being paid even more than the US president to crush evil doers and this he is currently failing in that primary responsibility of his. The earlier this curse of a leader is booted out the better for Nigerians 11 Likes |

Demdem: Does it matter? The bottom line is we have a govt headed by Jonathan that is currently failing in her primary duty to secure lives and properties of Nigerians.I posit that Jonathan has so far not shown the sophistication to tackle the insurgency but I won't entirely blame him. He takes 60% of the blame, 20% of the Blame should go the the Opposition and the Citizens, while the other 20% Goes to Security Agencies and others. The Opposition as well as the incumbent are guilty of politicizing the insurgency. Giving unnecessary boost to the Terrorists. The Populace on the other hand are either cheering the political gladiators or maintaining a "I DON't CARE ATTITUDE". Politics is Politics. Security of Lives and Properties should supersede Political Aspiration and drive for Power. The Opposition and the Populace should join hands with the Government to FIGHT this common enemy. Governance is not about politics. The Government also should know where to draw the line between constructive criticism and Pull Him Down Criticism. 1 Like |

chimerase2: The problem is the PDP govt is corruptOur Politicians lack ideologies. The decamping and re-decamping of Parties by elected Officials make everything difficult. As a people, we need to strengthen our political parties before the democracy can be strengthened. A Party is not supposed to be owned or controlled by an individual. It is supposed to be an Institution of democracy. |

Barcanista ṁ̭̥̈̅̄y̶̲̥̅̊ brother. Didn't knw U̶̲̥̅̊ survived dis bomb blast on nairaland ợ̣̣̝̇̇̇ợ̣̣̇̇̇ọ̥. If their is an attack towards buhari, it means two things are involved: 1. Its either a fashion parade, I meant a set up to clear buhari's name off the record of BH sponsors, or 2. He is having problem with his member sponsors/BH. Now if its the former, 1 thing is involved, it worked, but for some people. If the later, then 2 things r involved: 1. They want to eliminate him inorder not to have a lose end, and 2. They want to make him realise he will lose his life, if he messes with BH. If its the former, 1 thing is involved:... |

Just two things I have to say...... 1) Add the 20% u gave security agents and others to 60% u already gave Jonathan. He is the c in c of ALL our security forces. He is the one in charge. That means the fool has 80% blame. The core blame goes to him. 2) u said opposition and citizens giving unnecessary boost to these criminals, can u kindly expantiate on this? 1 Like |

Barcanista!!! Nice article. Boko Haram is an insurgency. and just like in every other part of the world, insurgency is sponsored by people. Some of which are persons you least expect. It all boils down to "who stands to gain from the insurgency?". There will always be conspiracy theories that will answer this question perfectly. But then, Nothing is ever as it seems. |
