President Goodluck Jonathan has revealed that the masterminds of
the tragic Nyanya bombings have been arrested by law enforcement
officials. The President disclosed this whilst interacting with media
men at the end of the World Economic Forum Africa which held in Abuja on
Wednesday to Friday.
Jonathan said that the security officials were interrogating the
culprits and would soon have information on their financiers and
sponsors.
The President also revealed that his administration had made $10
million available to match grants from international donors to prosecute
the efforts to return the missing girls who were abducted from Chibok
last month.
The President said his administration had declared a total war on
Boko Haram and would not negotiate with them, but rather rout it out of
existence in the country. He said;
“Boko Haram is a terror group and as journalists you should
know the meaning of terror. Before the 9/11 no body in the US or UK
imagined the dimension of terrorists in the world. You can not be too
sure of what ideology that drives their leaning. Sometimes, it is from
the religious sentiments… but we need to combine so many factors to
underscore their driving spirit . But I want to advice that the
terrorists should also know that they don’t do certain things and get
away with it because most of these activities are criminal offenses and
they should know that when they are caught, they would pay dearly for
it.
“For instance, I can tell you that the masterminds of the last Nyanya
bomb blast have been arrested and would face the long arm of the law.
“I want to assure also that sooner than later, the abducted Chibok
school girls would also be rescued with the help of the global community
and we will use remote sensing technology to smoke them out to face the
consequences,”
Welcomed development!
