WHERE ARE THE NORTHERN LEADERS? By Sharon Faliya Cham



First, let me start with this sombre news that the Nigerian Air Force jets bombed the army barracks in Bama, Borno state, north-east Nigeria, on Monday, September 1, 2014. News reports have it that the fighter jets bombed the army barracks when the army was fighting "Boko Haram" fighters who came attacking the town, and that the army was seriously repelling and destroying the "terrorists" when the Air Force jets came on the scene and bombed the barracks, and in the process all the armoury in the barracks was destroyed in addition to many casualties, which made all the soldiers completely defenceless, and then "Boko Haram" took control of the town while the soldiers fled the town alongside multitudes of civilians.
For those who don't know, Bama is the second biggest city in Borno state after Maiduguri the state capital, and if "Boko Haram" has taken over Bama you can be sure that their next target will be the state capital.
Remember that a few months ago President Jonathan has withdrawn the soldiers guarding the governor of Borno state, which means, if the plan to takeover the entire state through "Boko Haram" proceeds, he will be very vulnerable, for he could be captured like chicken for barbecue.
Please, do remember that all this bloody fraud is happening under a so called State of Emergency with President Jonathan's 20, 000 soldiers in charge.
I am tempted at this point to laugh but I will not, because lives and properties are being deliberately wasted and destroyed everyday over nothing.
Having said that, let me quickly assert that there is nowhere in the world whereby military fighter jets of the same country will bomb military barracks in a city where the same military is engaged in a fierce battle with terrorists and then the terrorists will takeover the city. It only means the military fighter jets were commanded to aid the terrorists at the expense of the lives of the soldiers who were gallantly fighting the terrorists.
Even a trainee fighter pilot cannot make the mistake of bombing any military barracks, because all military barracks are uniquely visible, and every fighter pilot has a clear map of the area they are dispatched to fight, and moreover, all fighter jets are in communication link with ground troops and a central command centre. Therefore don't ever believe the spin they may make that "it was a mistake" or "friendly fire".
Remember also that when "Boko Haram" attacked the Giwa army barracks in Maiduguri sometime this year, their video of the attack also showed a military fighter jet giving them cover in the sky.
Note that after each town has been captured by "Boko Haram" the Defence Headquarters will issue the same statement that the military will recapture the towns back from the "terrorists" but nothing of the sort will be seen until another town is captured by the "terrorists" again.
So, what further evidence does anyone need that "Boko Haram" is a government agenda against a particular people? If this is not False Flag operation then the world should gather all her grammarians and etymologists to construct a new meaning for False Flag operation.
Now back to our opening question:
WHERE ARE THE NORTHERN LEADERS?
For now, Nigeria is one country but everybody knows his or her father's house. But when your father's house is under attack you cannot fold your arms with your mouth sealed. There is no room for diplomacy when your enemy has undiplomatically brought war right into your home. Therefore the idea of keeping sealed lips while you are being destroyed is the height of self destruction and self injustice.
I expect that by now a powerful coalition of northern leaders should hold a World Press Conference and declare that they are being destroyed systematically through a well orchestrated State Sponsored Terrorism, and should raise a powerful delegation to visit world leaders and raise the same issue, and then finally take the matter to the International Criminal court of Justice and secure some arrest warrants.
The way things are going, northerners may wake up one day seeing all the military barracks in the north up in smoke, and then, of course, THE FINAL SOLUTION will take place.
Adolf Hitler's own agenda was also titled THE FINAL SOLUTION.
When Governor Nyako factually presented what is happening today, only a few northern leaders stood by him while some joined "the terrorists" in condemning Nyako by accusing him of "overheating the polity", and even gleefully collaborated in the plot to remove him from office, and you are left wondering whether a programme set out to kill hundreds of people daily and to wipe off certain towns and villages has not "overheated the polity" and the spoken truth should be the salve that will cool down the heat!
The Northern Governors Forum was neither here nor here. Till today they have not confronted President Jonathan to stop the carnage going on in their region, and I am left wondering if the north is wiped off what will they govern? There is no time for diplomacy in certain things. Enemies don't know diplomacy, for if they knew diplomacy they wouldn't conscript all institutions of state to fight you.
The other time General Buhari questioned certain double standards in regards to dealings with "Boko Haram" the conspirators, including the shamelessly loquacious Ayo Oritsejafor who has become quiet these days, and all their supporters, pounced on him and accused him of what they were doing. All that reaction was to make sure they blackmail northerners from speaking against this conspiracy.
Have you noticed how they label everyone that speaks against this conspiracy as a sympathiser or sponsor of "Boko Haram"? It is called psychological warfare aimed at blackmailing you to keep quiet while they continue to finish you off.
There is no time for diplomacy in certain things. By the time the world was busy with diplomacy over Adolf Hitler he was almost halfway conquering Europe.
With the exception of people like Professor Ango Abdullahi, Solomon Dalung, Anthony Sani, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, Paul Unongo, Joseph Waku, Governor Nyako, Governor Kwankwaso, Governor Wamakko, Honourable Adamu Aliyu, Engineer Buba Galadima, Hakeem Baba Ahmed, Nasir el-Rufai, Adamu Adamu, Mohammed Haruna and a few others who have been vocal on what is going on, the others seem to have become cowed into silence or have been paid off.
But then, more still needs to be done by the north to save herself from enemies with state power. Northern leaders, including the traditional rulers, need to come out and call a spade a spade, for enemies don't know diplomacy.
Let nobody kid themselves that because certain names like General Ihejirika and Modu Shariff have been mentioned as sponsors of the carnage that the agenda will stop. No way, they will not stop it. The plotters are determined without qualms as can be seen by the latest Bama onslaught and capture.
Remember that General Ihejirika was carefully chosen by this president to be Chief of Army Staff, and even when the General was due for retirement around 2012 he extended the man's service up to January 2014 after his successor was also carefully chosen and groomed. The fact that about one hundred senior army officers had to be retired for General Minimah to succeed General Ihejirika as Chief of Army Staff should tell you that they are committed to this agenda.
WHERE ARE THE NORTHERN LEADERS?
Will they step up to the plate? Time is running out!
When diplomacy works not brinkmanship is recoursed to. Ask Russia and Israel for lessons on brinkmanship.
