...BOKO HARAM rejects Amnesty Offer by Federal Govt of Nigeria...

Information available to sources close to the northern oligarchy indicates that members of the Jihadist group, the Yusufiyya sect popularly referred to as Boko Haram may have rejected the amnesty offer extended to the group by President Goodluck Jonathan last week.

According to the information, the group said that they have not asked for the said amnesty deal, adding that they will not accept the amnesty which the government has promised to offer them.
A spokesman of the Jihadist group, who spoke to the Hausa version of the BBC- under the name – Abu Dardam, stated that their reason of not accepting the amnesty is that they do not recognize democracy as a form of government.
Dardam added that the group does not agree with the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, stressing that justice can only be found in the Holy Quran through the Shariya system of government.
Reacting, Borno State Commissioner of Home Affairs, Information and Culture, Mr. Hyeladi Inuwa Bwala, appealed to the group to see reason and embrace dialogue with a view to restore lasting peace in Borno State.
He said most wars and crisis in the world were settled mostly through dialogue, and therefore called on the group to see wisdom in the amnesty offer and come to a round table for dialogue.

In Nigeria situation, our President is pleading to offer amnesty to Boko Haram and they are rejecting it. What a country of Laws and Disorder!
