Aisha Wakil, better known as
“Mama Boko Haram” has disclosed that members of Musab al-Barnawi faction of
Boko Haram were ready to surrender.
Recall that Wakil had on Friday
disclosed Boko Haram’s intention for the abducted Yobe girls.
However, speaking with Tribune on
Saturday, she stated that the sect taht kidnapped 110 Dapchi schoolgirls were
not heartless people and were ready to drop their arms and embrace peace.
Wakil, a former member of the
Dialogue and Peaceful Resolution of Security Challenges in the Northern region,
set up by former President Goodluck Jonathan said the only thing stopping them
is the fear of how they would be reintegrated into the society and how the
society will see them.
“I was shocked, like every other
Nigerian, as same history has repeated itself like Chibok girls. I enquired and
I was told that it was Habib and co who took the girls.
“This is not Habib’s habit, son
of Mohammed Yusuf. I know he is with Maman Nur one of the peaceful groups of
Jamatul Ali’s Sunna, Liddawati Wul Jihadi. Nur, Habib and group are people with
less violence.
“Why these Dapchi little girls
were taken by them left me with shock. I know, believe and trust that they
won’t hurt them or hold them long. This group I can beat my chest and tell the
world that it needs peace and it wants to stop.
“These kids are not heartless
people. May Almighty Allah touch the hearts of these dear sons so that they
could stop. The whole world is watching. What are they afraid of? Who will
touch a surrendered fighter? Do they think the world and I would not be there
for them?
“Dear sons, my knees are on the
ground, my hands up to Allah, begging all of you to stop. Try me your mum, just
come out with the girls, please don’t do havoc again. From the deep of my
heart, I beg with motherly love and tears.
“Stop and don’t let your sisters
stay too long. We are not praying for future occurrences. We need the fight to
end peacefully. Every individual in the country, mosques, churches, states the
whole country should engage in praying. Stop blaming anyone. I believe if we
pray more, God will pour down His grace on us, Nigeria will be better again,”
Aisha said.
Bashir Manzo, who chairs the
association of the affected parents, also speaking said that he would rather
wait for any strategy the governor, who is the chief security officer of the
state, would adopt, in conjunction with the Federal Government, to get back
their kids.
“I and my colleagues are the ones
with the authentic list of the missing girls, the 84 announced by the
government is suspicious because the managers of the school did not tell the
governor the truth.
“The formation of the association
is to ensure justice is done in their struggle in actualising the return of the
girls.
“One area the parents and the
community were concerned was the circumstances surrounding the abduction after
the withdrawal of security operatives in Dapchi days before the attack.
“It pains them so much; even the
governor is pained by it
“Another issue of concern to the
parents was the arrest of three of their members for allegedly attacking the
convoy of the governor the day after the incident.” he said.
