Boko Haram: Lawmakers Slam Buhari Over Financial Negotiation With Boko Haram
Second Republic lawmaker, Junaid Mohammed has reacted to President Muhammadu Buhari’s amnesty offer to Boko Haram.
Mohammed said the move will not solve the problems of insurgency.
“I don’t believe the amnesty will stop anything because so far so good, we do not know how far the negotiations between the Federal Government and Boko Haram has gone”, he told Vanguard.
“Also, we do not know whether it is an honest negotiation that is ongoing or the one based on commercial purposes.
“If negotiations are ongoing and we do not know how far they have gone but we are hearing money is exchanging hands, then it is simply blackmail.
“I can say that at the end of the day, we will realize that FG had not been interfacing with the real leaders of Boko Haram and all the negotiations have been based on commercial purposes,” he added.
A Yoruba leader, Sen. Femi Okurounmu also condemned the decision.
He said: “The amnesty move is to call for Jihad and I can say that the herdsmen menace ravaging the country is not different from Boko Haram. Why should they give amnesty to terrorists?
