During the
2012 inter-denominational service which held at the National Ecumenical Centre
to mark the 2012 Armed Forces Remembrance Day, President Goodluck Jonathan made
the following statement as regards members of the deadly Boko Haram terrorist
sect invading his government:
“Some of
them are in the executive arm of government, some of them are in the
parliamentary/legislative arm of government while some of them are even in the
judiciary.
“Some are
also in the armed forces, the police and other security agencies.
“Some
continue to dip their hands and eat with you and you won’t even know the person
who will point a gun at you or plant a bomb behind your house.”
What you
have just read is a quote of President Jonathan's remark at that solemn event
to honour the memory of our fallen heroes.
The
president till date has not arrested any member of this terrorist sect he eats
and dines with because they are too close
for him to prosecute. In fact, it will be an indictment of his government.
Recently,
the hidden secret as to the identity of one of the Boko Haram members in
President Jonathan's camp was exposed when his Special Assistant on Social
Media, one Reno Omokri, forgot to cover up his digital signature in one of his
many cover-up stories to mask the activity of his sect.
In a bid to
cover up a massive scandal in the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation where
$20 billion was alleged to have been missing by the erstwhile governor of
Nigeria's Central Bank, Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, Mr. Reno Omokri informed
his Boko Haram sect to increase the "tempo" of their strikes so that
he can conveniently link the whistle blower to the deadly sect.
Alas, the
diligence of some social media activists uncovered the sinister plot.
In the alias
conjured by Reno Omokri to cover up his sect's activities, he wrote a malacious
article with a pseudonym Wendell Simlin, titled Increased Tempo of Boko Haram/Terrorist
Activity in the Wake of the Sanusi Saga, which is produced
below verbatim:
In
the wake of the saga involving the suspended Governor of the Central Bank of
Nigeria, there has been an increase in the tempo of terrorist activities
carried out by the Islamic Terrorist sect, Boko Haram.
Taken
together with some historical facts, there is a strong case that this increase
in tempo and other activities are not coincidental.
The
following Timelines may throw some light on the likely linkages;
February
20th 2014: President Goodluck Jonathan suspends Malam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as Governor
of the Central Bank
of Nigeria.
February
20th 2014: Boko Haram attacks Bama town killing at least 47, wounding many and
destroying houses.
February
23rd 2014: Boko Haram attacks Konduga Local Government, destroying houses, and
allegedly killing scores of
rural dwellers.
February
24th 2014: Borno State Governor’s convoy allegedly attacked by gunmen.
February
25th 2014: Boko Haram attacks Federal Government College, Buni Yada, in Yobe
State, killing at least 29 students as they slept.
History
It
is a historical fact that Malam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi was implicated in the
Gideon Akaluka beheading affair of 1995 and was subsequently arrested in Kano
and detained by the Abacha administration in Sokoto, Sokoto State.
Sanusi
was released after the intervention of (amongst others) Alhaji Umaru Abdul
Mutallab.
Alhaji
Mutallab used his influence to place Sanusi comfortably in the banking sector
beginning with the United Bank for Africa
from where he moved to First Bank where he
(Mutallab) was chairman.
Malam
Sanusi rose within the ranks, aided by his relationship with Mutallab, until he
was nominated by President Yar’adua and confirmed by the senate as the
Governor of the CBN in 2009.
It
is pertinent to note two incidences that cannot be coincidences. The son of
Alhaji Umaru Abdul Mutallab (Farouk Abdul Mutallab) eventually entered
into infamy when he was arrested and tried for attempting to detonate an under
wear bomb on a Northwest Airlines flight into America. Farouk Abdul
Mutallab became radicalized after he had gone to study Sharia and Islamic
studies in Yemen in 2009.
This
was exactly the same trajectory earlier taken by Sanusi Lamido Sanusi who
schooled at the International University of Africa in Khartoum, Sudan in
the mid 1990s while Osama Bin Laden was also a resident of the city.
While Reno
Omokri was writing this fictitious story, his sect truly intensified the
"tempo" of their terror.
It
could also be recalled that when the former Minister of Aviation Stella Oduah
was facing a terrible public outcry over the purchase of armoured cars at
over-bloated prices, there were "increased tempo" of the sect's
activities.
Investigation
reveals that the services of Reno Omokri's sect may have been employed to
distract Nigerians from the scandals.
Also,
shortly after Justice Ayo Salami was removed on August 16 2011, there was
public outcry and massive protest over his removal. If we are to go by the
trend we have seen in recent times, Reno Omokri's sect was likely contacted to
carry out the UN building bombing on August 26, 2011 just 10 days after Justice
Salami’s removal so as to distract Nigerians.
I can
connect several "increased tempo" in the strikes of Reno Omokri's
sect to periods of public anger against his principal's regime.
We call on
President Jonathan to not only sack Reno Omokri, but also subject him to
thorough investigation.
The National
Intelligence Agency, Department of State Security, the military and other
sister agencies must conduct a thorough investigation of Reno Omokri's
connection to the deadly Boko Haram sect.
Anything
short of this is a disservice to the 10,000 Nigerians who have been killed so
far during the sect's activities.
Anything
short of this is a disservice to the memory of our gallant officers in the JTF,
Military, DSS, Police and Civil Defense, who continue to sacrifice their lives
that we may live in peace and freedom.
