Folks, it's time the Northern leaders are held accountable for boko haram.  I had always abstained from doing so but the freedom, the daringness, and the  sophistication with which boko haram succeeds makes it unreasonable not to  wonder if they are operating at the behest of most of these unscrupulous  politicians who mouth off recklessly. 
How could boko haram (I have stopped using capital letters to begin their  names because they are a bunch of worthless beasts) roam about without the  citizens of these areas seeing them and alerting the secuity personnel before  their striking? If they drive past mounted soldiers and police, that is reason  enough to question the roles of the Northern Muslim security chiefs I mentioned  above (in leadership roles within the security forces).
It is stupid of anyone to accuse the president of Nigeria of carrying out  this boko haram butchering. The president must not have done a worthy job in  stopping the violence but accusing him of carrying it out makes no sense  whatsoever. This wrong pointing of the fingers has emboldened me into suspecting  Northern politicians of organizing and orchestrating boko haram, stupidly  believing that it will hasten Ebele's exit from office or dissuade him from re  contesting. They are wrong because their conduct is garnering Ebele the opposite  of their beliefs. 
Governor Nyako makes a fool himself every time he opens his mouth. This old  man of over 70 years old has no respect for himself whatsoever -- he acts  thoughtlessly. Not long ago, he was in Washington DC, with a few other dumb  governors, and they sang like the canary before Susan Rice, who was in  elementary school the first time that Murtala Nyako was a military governor.  These fools blabbed on their president to a mere adviser to president Obama  (who was also in secondary school when Nyako was a military governor). But for  the objection of Ambassdor Adefuye, they would have divulged any state secret in  their possession. Had a few governors of some states in the US done the  opposite of what Nyako and his band of thoughtless Northern  colleague-governors did, the US Justice Department would be investigating them  by now for possible espionage and disloyalty to the United States of America.  
I believe in the continuation of Nigeria as one nation, with devolution of  some powers to future reconstituted regions (not the stupid six  geo-political zones). But if the North wants to continue to act the fool of  wanting to always rule, else there is mayhem in Nigeria and their elites  embarrass all of us abroad (as did Nyako and his colleagues), then I say let us  break up the country peacefully now, possibly through this ongoing confab.
In circa 2014, I am not interested in sharing a country with anyone who is  stupid enough to kill people in the name of Allah; any stupid governors who  go to Washington DC to badmouth their country and their president before  youngsters who are mere aides (not even cabinet Secretaries or elected  senators), or anyone who anyone who indulges in all sorts of evil just to get  into power. 
It is too bad and regrettable that Governor Nyako talks flippantly and  unintelligently but to now know that his press aides are borderline illiterates  galls me. They are too English language challenged that they could not give  their press release a grammatically correct title. The opening sentence needs  modifiers for it to make sense in conveying its intended message and the second  sentence is grammatically unstable -- it is almost a run on sentence. The  lackadaisicalness found in this press release is the same degree of  lackadaisicalness with which these so-called northern leaders address matters  affecting the impoverished population of the north. 
For years, governor Raji Fashola criminally and serially deported  hundreds of Northern poor folks from Lagos state and dumped them at the  mercy of inclement weather and armed robbers at the Kachia express way. Not a  single Northern governor uttered a word in abhorrence of  Fashola's fascism; not a single Northern governor rehabilitated those  unfortunate folks. But when Fashola tried it with a mere 18 or 20 Igbos, the  entire world heard from Ndi Igbo and Fashola apologized and has stopped his  criminal conduct of deporting his fellow Nigerians. Igbo governors, especially  Peter Obi of Anambara, gave him a bit of their minds and picked up the  amelioration of the injustice visited upon those Igbos.
The way Igbo fought for the right of those impoverished Igbos is the way  America fights for its citizens and that breeds the love of country that US  citizens exhibit. Not only do Northern leaders do the opposite of what Igbo  leaders do for their abused citizens, they also turn around to abuse their  abused citizens further by using them as boko haram fighters, just to get back  to power. It's time that Nigerians stared these crooked northern leaders  in the eyes and told them to go and sit down. It is also time that the  impoverished northerners told their leaders that their joke is up.
Henceforth, I am holding northern leaders and some of their intelligentsia  responsible for boko haram. They are sponsoring it; they are giving cover to the  terrorists; they are embarrassing Nigeria and Africa with their primitive  behaviors. These northern governors have gone too far and they must be checked  right away. The president must put his foot down now and impose sever emergency  measures in those boko haram infested states. Since the constitution makes no  provision for what befalls sitting governors who indulge in terrorism and  treason, I suggest that the president takes the extraordinary measure  of replacing these governors with military governors (as did president  Lincoln in some of the states during the American Civil War) until boko haram is  eliminated. I stated the above because I have genuine cause to believe that  these governors, especially Nyako and Kwakwanso, are sponsoring and shielding  boko haramites. 
Enough of this nonsense, folks, it's time to kill Ali  Baba!
