The truth is finally coming out with regards to the deadly operations of the Boko Haram sect in Northern Nigeria, Olufamous.com gathered.
A Maiduguri-based cleric, Pastor Kallamu Musa Ali Dikwa, has unmasked those believed to be behind the activities of the dreaded Islamic sect.
He has also gone a step forward by sending the names of the alleged sponsors to the President of the Senate, David Mark, for necessary action.
The cleric chronicled the activities of the sect in an open letter to the Senate President entitled, “Open letter to the Senate president: My Suggestion on how to tackle Boko Haram,” dated 17th June, 2011 but was received by the office of the Senate President on November 2, 2011.
Investigation showed that alarmed by the claims of the cleric in the open letter, which was backed with five DVD-CDs containing video clips of the activities of the sect and their sponsors, the Senate president reportedly referred the matter, along with the five DVD-CDs, to the appropriate Senate committee for a thorough investigation on February 29, 2012.
Unfortunately, nothing was heard since then, because of the names of the prominent Nigerians and top government officials mentioned.
In the open letter, the cleric suggested that the Freedom of Information Act should be used to extract the phone numbers of the leaders of the Boko Haram group from journalists who had been receiving text messages and press releases from the group from time to time.
He advised that the government should start the crusade of ending the Boko Haram menace in the country by fishing out its officials and security agents supporting the terrorist group since it had now been established that the group was being supported by prominent Nigerians, top government officials and security personnel.
The pastor, who identified the head of one of the prominent Federal Government agencies as the financial secretary of the group, alleged in the letter that the “Islamic Revolution has a security committee” with a former principal officer in the Senate, as well as a former governor from the North as members, saying that the main aim of the group is to Islamise Nigeria through Jihad.
Pastor Dikwa also revealed all his interactions with the now late leader of the group, Mohammed Yusuf, since 2006 till he was killed and why he was killed and why the group continued to attack churches, security personnel and installations.
A top aide to the Senate president confirmed that the office received the letter and, as usual, passed same to Senator Mark and that he immediately sent it to the appropriate quarters for a thorough investigation because of its sensitivity.
“It is true, a letter like that was received from a cleric. I can't remember his name again but the Senate president acted on it. Maybe the investigation is still in progress, I don't know. But now that you are raising it, we will find out. The claims of the cleric are nothing that can be overlooked; something will have to be done,” the Senate President's aide said
