On Buhari's Call for the President's Resignation - By Reno Omokri

Reno Omokri is Special Assistant to President Jonathan on New Media. Read his response below...
Reading the interview Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) gave to Daily Trust which was published on Wednesday the 22nd of May 2013, I am compelled to raise historical issues that put the former military Head of State's words in perspective. 
Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) blamed President Jonathan for the insurgency occasioned by the militant sect, Jamā'a Ahl al-sunnah li-da'wa wa al-jihād, commonly referred to as Boko Haram and asked President Jonathan to resign saying “Jonathan should vacate and give way to competent hand to govern the country”.

Buhari further said “When the Niger Delta militants started their activities in the South-South, they were invited by the late President Umaru Yar’adua.
An aircraft was sent to them and their leaders met with the late President in Aso Rock and discussed issues. They were given money and a training scheme was introduced for their members. But when the Boko Haram emerged in the north members of the sect were killed”.

Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) may wish to note that President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan never supported militancy and criminality in the Niger-Delta at any time in his political career. Furthermore, the administration of President Umaru Musa Yar'adua used a combination of carrot and stick to end the militancy in the Niger-Delta.

Stick was used in the form of heavy military intervention by way of the Joint Military Task Force (JTF) which routed the militants by way of ground attacks and aerial assault with the use of Nigerian Air Force Jets and helicopters.  After this initial pacification, the carrot was introduced whereby the administration offered an olive branch for those wishing to embrace dialogue. Those who accepted the offer to dialogue came out of the creeks and dialogue took place leading to the conditional amnesty (militants were made to surrender their weapons and renounce violence before they could benefit from the amnesty).

Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) may or may not be aware that these same steps were taken by the current administration with regards to the insurgency occasioned by Jamā'a Ahl al-sunnah li-da'wa wa al-jihād or Boko Haram. 

This administration in fulfillment of its constitutional responsibility to maintain law and order and enforce the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria empowered Nigeria's security forces to check the insurgency. As a democrat and listening leader, President Jonathan's ears were opened to the cries of the people in the affected areas and after meeting with different informed groups agreed to employ the dialogue option and called for the leaders of the Jamā'a Ahl al-sunnah li-da'wa wa al-jihād or Boko Haram to show themselves. 

In furtherance of his desire to peacefully resolve the insurgency, President Jonathan inaugurated the Presidential Committee on Dialogue and Peaceful Resolution of Security Challenges in the North on Wednesday the 24th of April 2013 at the Presidential Villa Abuja under the leadership of a cabinet minister, Tanimu Turaki, Minister of Special Duties. 

A week after the President's initiative, Jamā'a Ahl al-sunnah li-da'wa wa al-jihād or Boko Haram rejected the amnesty proposal yet the President kept faith with the Committee and met with them as recently as a week ago and in furtherance of that meeting he issued orders for the release of certain classes of detainees held in connection with the insurgency.

With the detailed historical TimeLines provided above, it is my considered opinion that Major General Muhammadu Buhari's (rtd) statement castigating President Goodluck Jonathan for not treating the Jamā'a Ahl al-sunnah li-da'wa wa al-jihād or Boko Haram as others were treated are not factual and are borne out of insufficient study of historical facts. 

Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) also accused the President of using undue force on the Jamā'a Ahl al-sunnah li-da'wa wa al-jihād or Boko Haram saying “In Bama and Baga towns, military personnel were reported to have been engaged in extortion and sometimes raping of women. And because a soldier was killed in Baga the whole town was sacked by military. This is not the best way military should have acted when they were sent to restore law and order in a town. How can a responsible government allow its people to be killed in this way”.

Let me say that I appreciate Buhari's concern for the victims of the Boko Haram attacks on Bama and Baga. However, Buhari should be reminded that the President ordered an investigation into the incidence at Bama. The investigations are being carried out by qualified persons and Buhari ought to wait for the results of those investigations before apportioning blame. Members of the Nigerian armed forces are sacrificially laying their lives down to protect Nigerians and they deserve more loyalty from us all, particularly from one who was once their Commander-in-Chief.

But going back to history,  Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) is reminded that this is not the first time that terrorists have unleashed mayhem on Nigerians. 

Buhari is reminded that in February and March of 1984, the Maitatsine sect unleashed violence in Yola under the leadership of Musa Makaniki. A conservative estimate is that 1000 people died during those riots and half of the residence of Yola in present day Adamawa state were rendered homeless. The military was unleashed on the sect by the military administration of Major General Muhammadu Buhari. Similar charges as the ones made today by Buhari were made against the soldiers sent by his government to quell the Maitatsine riots of 1984. They were accused of undue force, destruction of property, raping women and killing civilians. Many human rights groups and activists including J. Peter Pham, the Director of the Michael Ansari Center at the prestigious Atlantic Council  whom I have personally met and who is alive today have documented what took place during those riots. In putting down the Maitatsine insurgency, the military incurred collateral damages. Yet Nigerians understood with Buhari. Did anyone call for his resignation as military Head of State because of the incidence?

Also, it is a historical fact that Maitatsine riots again flared up more than a year after this in April of 1985, while Buhari was still Head of State, this time in Gombe in present day Gombe state. Hundreds of people were killed and the military again was called in. There were collateral damage and Musa Makaniki, the arrowhead of Maitatsine escaped to the Cameroon and was not caught until 2004 when Obasanjo had ascended to power. To the best of my knowledge, nobody called on Buhari to resign even though he could not apprehend the leader of the sect.

Is it too much to ask that Buhari show the same level of understanding that Nigerians showed to him in 1984-1985 to the President?

Some issues should be beyond politics. Anytime an elder statesman calls into question the abilities of our armed forces it goes a long way to weakening their morale and resolve which is precisely what should not be weakened when we face an insurgency such as the present one.

Finally, I would like to advise Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) not to see security as just a job for the government. It is a job for everybody. In other nations when terrorists strike politicians close ranks and unite against the terrorists. Our case in Nigeria should not be different. And indeed, I have cause to thank Distinguished Senators and Honourable Members of the House of Representatives from Major General Muhammadu Buhari's (rtd) party the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) who saw wisdom in the President's Declaration of a State of Emergency in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states and voted in support of the declaration yesterday. This is precisely the type of multi partisan collaboration that will see Nigeria achieve her developmental goals.  

Regards,
Reno,

Bukola Samuel said...

What Should be understood is that... In the case of terrorism, Political bruhaha is the least expected. This would be seen and sensed as a sign of weakness within the government and its parastatals because indeed, the govt consists of the federal, state, and ofcourse, local, the presence of stake holders cannot be over-emphasised. These are opinion leaders that even a slight cough at a particular matter would raise and heighten media's hammering and set a priority agenda for the public on such gestures. What is left to say is... Buhari (in all respect) has failed as a state elder and Stake holder by undermining the decisions of the present presidential administration. He has indeed proved that he is truly of the military who prefer action to facts and statistics and dialogue and 'standing untop of the situation' which has been greatly employed to a painful extent in this country.

Hmn. I reserve my comment.

In one word when two Elephants fight the grass suffers,Nigerians both home and Diaspora are suffering we have a stigma to our name,the women and children in this Areas are suffering.Buhari should stop aportioning blames as an Elder states man he should talk to his Boko boys to drop there weapons and stop killing innocent citizen.taking someones life is justifiable is inhuman.Islam didn't ask them to kill so what are they practising.

nne nwa said...

His defence makes no sense to me, buhari deserves no response, he is i believe part of the northern elders who want to take the jonathan govt to international criminal court abi? Lets see how that plays out. Hypochrites and bloodsuckers. Buhari should be arrested. All the while boko haram were killng peolle he didnt utter a word. Now they are being killed and arrested, he is saying jonathan should resign? May the God of justice visit you and yours soon. Lest i forget, there is no basis for comparison between boko haram and niger delta militants whatsoever.

As usual,'m not expecting Linda to publish this. Still I'll say that both Buhari and Reno should go home and sleep,especially Buhari. If he contests for the presidency one million times he will fail 2 million times. Its not a muslim/christian thing this time around. In d grand scheme of things, Buhari is not needed. And Mr. Renoould go and sleep too. He is the mouth piece of a sleeping government.

We live in a democracy and what it entails is the freedom of expression. Buhari has that constitutionally guaranteed right so does Omokri. But If Omokri speaks, he should realise that his words carry much weight since he is in the corridors of power. Such words are viewed as having possible policy implications. He is a loose canon who should be relieved of his position.

Constructive advice will definitely go a long way. But that's asking for much because Buhari wants the failure of this administration by all means.

Reno has a point. Most of you will comment out of the 3-5 years experience you have in Nigerian politics. When he ruled years back , he saw nothing wrong in using the military, now he ask for Jonathans's head. 2nd when jonathan was asking for dialogue , he received insults from your mouths now that he is acting you people are still insulting him. Let you brains mature b4 you make comments regarding critical issues. Jonathan might not be a good president, but his latest action on BH is welcome. If any of you lost loved ones or properties to d insurgent action of bh or any of you in d states where it is been carried out then you will understand. I speak inrespective of tribe or religion.

No. Reno made some good points.
I used to think he was a loudmouthed idiot.
Not bad reasoning at all in these paragraphs he has penned.

All is left now, is whether the facts could ascertained.

But you see, another point in favour of the Buhari Administration was its fiscal prudence.
Zero tolerance of corruption. And a Campaign for discipline in the public and private sectors.

Reno, one of the major reasons Jonathan is embattled, from areas of the country [not even from a largely Biased Northern Elite] is because he tends to come across as wasteful.

Private Jet, Brutal Removal of Subsidy, Feeding allowance at Aso Rock, and then...this Centre FOR Mrs Jonathan.
Not to talk of the Vice President's mansion.
I've not even bothered with the accusation in the Wikileaks Dossiers!


So.
Not just the Boko Haram issue...but on other issues as well, Jona fails us.

And infact your quite incisive argumentative skills will be put to better use by pointing out HIS [GEJ] inconsistencies in regular parleys.
For two reasons,
to lessen the attacks on his person,
and to shoot back to black, the credibility deficit [long in the red] of his
organization.

Looking forward to catching a beer, and great peppersoup or two with you, one of these days in Abuja. [i don't mean this sarcastically]

Sincerely.

Buhari is the Boko Haram 's Petron he is not happy for the new development. He will never rule this country again. GEJ I 'm not in support of U Comming back 2015. God will give us a good leader.

Hear this ignoramus Reno "Yet Nigerians understood with Buhari. Did anyone call for his resignation as military Head of State because of the incidence?


"Also, it is a historical fact that Maitatsine riots again flared up more than a year after this in April of 1985, while Buhari was still Head of State, this time in Gombe in present day Gombe state. Hundreds of people were killed and the military again was called in. There were collateral damage and Musa Makaniki, the arrowhead of Maitatsine escaped to the Cameroon and was not caught until 2004 when Obasanjo had ascended to power. To the best of my knowledge, nobody called on Buhari to resign even though he could not apprehend the leader of the sect. Is it too much to ask that Buhari show the same level of understanding that Nigerians showed to him in 1984-1985 to the President?' My brother Reno, Buhari was not an elected president. The barrel of his gun took him there. Who dared to ask him to resign. When u didnt put him there in d 1st place. Ur boss GEJ, is a democratically elected president of Nigeria and therefore there could be calls for his resgination by those who voted him in.

But overall, he has handled the Boko haram matter well. Was even shcoked at his liver this time.

The only reason they are all advocating for 2015 elections is for d redistribution of the oil wells because they want 2 continue to seat on d seat or remove d incumbent frm d seat as the case mayb...so that oil wells mayb distributed to deir own district to make the rich richer nd d poor poorer......this 2015 elections would b bloody.my advice is 2 pack u load now nd relocate 2 d nearest country

Good points Reno..Buhari should rest his quest 4 power.tinubus allegience wiv him sucks..All oil blocks should be retrieved by the FG from individuals ownin them. If we are not practising true federalism,,individuals have no right to own them.. If GEJ doesnt win come 2015,,So be it..GOD should subdue all their power/antics,and put his OWN.

in as much as president Goodluck jonathan is not the best Nigeria can offer i think Gen. Buhari is not fit to head a modern Nigeria of today with about 70% consisting of young, informative and enlighten populace.

I understood general Buhari is one of the politician that supported this group call boko haram, is there not enough evidence to get him arrested and send him to jail for life for life of all the innocent Nigerians kill by this group, even though there is he is above the law because all of then are corrupt.President GOODLUCK we cant wait for you to leave the President seat, you are a disappointment.

Jonathan is fire! But Buhari is Hell! I tell u, d worse thing dat will happen to us is 4 dis Buhari Devil 2 rule Nigeria. We better remain wit Jona cos dis man is a walking beast! Extremist without conscience!

LMFAO!!!See Nigerians reacting...but aint it time that man retire?!Both men sef.

bond said...

buhari is just interested about having that seat.

He won't do any better. His tactics to spoil jona's administration are barbaric and not well planned and i guess he was impatient.

GEJ is not the best either but, that brother is trying.

It aint easy to be at the helm of affairs, making all the final decisions.

But, he should be given a chance to prove himself... and that's what he is doing.
