Ribadu Faults Jonathan On Boko Haram, Says Only Amnesty Will Prevent Another Civil War.

Pioneer Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, has warned that the refusal of President Goodluck Jonathan to grant amnesty to terror group, Boko Haram, can lead to another civil war.
Ribadu,  who spoke on Liberty FM in Kaduna on Saturday, urged the President to grant amnesty to the  violent Islamist sect for peace to return to the country,  saying  he  (Jonathan) should not claim that the sect members were ghosts.
He argued that with the way things were  happening in the country, if nothing  was  done, “Nigerians will lose Nigeria to a civil war.”
Advising Nigerians against voting for a leader they can not trust, Ribadu told Jonathan to “hearken to the voice of the people.”

Ribadu said, “Jonathan was wrong to have said he will not grant amnesty to Boko Haram;  he should not fail to protect the  people and when people call saying we are tired, we are down; even if it means to dialogue and have an solution to the whole process, he should opt for such.
“You cannot say they are faceless because faceless people do not do things like this. Faceless people cannot be responsible and daily you see them on Facebook. Faceless people cannot be in your custody; ghosts cannot be people that are in the community, people who at a point wanted to dialogue.”
The former Presidential aspirant added that  a  war could be averted  “if we  come  together forgetting about sentiments, about differences and working  towards unity and saving the resources of this country because it is only through that that we will be able to achieve peace.”
