Press Release
Insecurity; Release and absolving of Boko Haram Suspects into Nigerian Army, a Security Threat to Christians and Southerners in the Military… Ohanaeze Ndigbo Seek Redeployment of Christians and Southerners in the Army from North East to the South
(1) Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council Worldwide had called for the immediate withdrawal and redeployment of all Christians and Southerners in the Military from the troubled North East region to the South, and replace them with all the Suspected Boko Haram terrorists released and re-absolved into the Nigerian Army Under the Watchful eyes of Chief of Army Staff,Lt Gen. Burutai,as Such obnoxious policy is a threat to the lives of Christians and Southerners in the Army, and placed their lives at the mercy of alleged repented Boko Haram Suspects,who might be Fighting the Nigerian Army from inside,as only Christians and Southerners will be eliminated in these rogue assignments.
(2) OYC is worried about the rationale behind the recent policy of release of Boko Haram Suspects and re-absolved them into the Nigerian Army, OYC queries Why Will terrorists fighting againtst the Nigerian State with Sophisticated weapons will be captured and released, Evidently, there are videos in circulations showing Boko Haram terrorists executing Soldiers and Civilians mainly Christians through a mean and ruthless process Such as beheading the victims, We therefore call for the release of all freedom fighters, Prisoners of Conscience currently in detention, without Carrying Arms against the State,as it is sheer injustice for terrorists executing Soldiers and Civilians will be released and re-absolved into the Nigerian Army, while those in the Self determination Struggle especially the Biafra agitators languish in Most prisons.
(3) OYC plead with President Muhammadu Buhari to stop Chief of Army Staff Lt Gen Burutai, from further recruitment of Boko Haram Suspects into the Nigerian Army as it’s a mockery on the fight against insecurity in the North East, to infuse a Terrorist into the Army,as there’s possiblities that Boko Haram terrorists are gathering intelligence reports by Sponsoring some of their members into the Army through these exercise, which is aimed at weakening the strength of the military while strengthening the base of the Boko Haram insurgents… this madness must stop,or there’s should be mass withdrawal and redeployment of all Christians and Southerners in the Army from the North East to the South, and replace them Only with the assumed Repented Boko Haram Suspects to engage Boko Haram terrorists.
