An online publication,
thetrentonline.com is reporting that the Governor of Adamawa State, which is
one of the states presently under emergency rule due to the attack of the Boko
Haram sect, may in fact be one of the sponsors of the devilish sect.
Its reporting that efforts by
the military and other security operatives against the insurgents may not yield
the desired results soon, as some very powerful persons in the government are
bent on making sure that the country remains “ungovernable’ for President
Goodluck Jonathan.
The recent capture of 234
school children in Borno State leading to threat of their being allegedly
married out at giveaway bride prices of between N2,000-N5,000 to the bordering
countries of Cameroon, Niger and Chad. This it was learnt was a deliberate attempt
by the Islamic set to further Islamize the non-Muslim among the students since
the government secondary school is predominately Christians.
Nigeria is presently under
intensive terror and siege. In addition to all these are the sporadic attacks
in the North Central states of Plateau, Nasarawa, Benue, Southern part of
Kaduna and Taraba states, which are predominately Christian States by “hired
Fulani herdsmen.” The method of the attacks by these groups it is said is quite
different from what is known to the Boko Haram insurgents. Who are these Fulani
herdsmen that are more sophisticatedly armed than our military? And who are
their sponsors? These are the mind bugling questions agitating the minds of
many people today.
Investigations carried out by
Powersteering New Magazine revealed that no fewer than five hundred Fulani
mercenaries trained in Sudan were imported into the state and are camped at the
border village of Ypsen inToung Local Government Area of Adamawa State on the
instruction of the state governor. The Fulani men are kept at the expense of
the state government, fed, well taken care of and paid a stipend of about
N50,000 each monthly by the state government with tax payers’ money.
