Pastor Tunde Bakare, vice-presidential running mate of
General M. Buhari in the 2011 presidential elections has said come up with a
genius idea to end terrorists’ activities in the country as perpetrated by the
Islamist militant-Boko Haram. He suggested that the federal government apologise
to the group over the killing of its leader, Mohammed Yusuf in 2009.
“The summary execution of the Boko Haram’s former leader,
Mohammed Yusuf in 2009 provided the soil of martyrdom for the nurture and
growth of the sect. Government must declare peace first of all; apologising for
the murder of Mohammed Yusuf to the sect members, not their sympathisers or
bandits,” he said.
Peace is always a good thing and if apology will end this
madness, I have nothing against it. However, what happens to the many innocent
people that this same group have murdered unjustly? Who will apologise to them
and can any apology bring them back? Their mass killings can never be a
justification for anything. Their leader was just one life although equally
important. But they have killed scores of people and destroyed properties. What
is even the guarantee that the apology will stop them? Anyway, I’m simply
commenting and I don’t do politics.
Remain happy and spread happiness around. Xoxo.
