B’Haram: Nigeria Is At War

Plateau State Governor  Jonah Jang,  has said that the persistent violent attacks by members of the Boko Haram terrorist group have put the country in a perpetual state of war.

He said unless the insurgents are defeated, Nigeria would know no peace.

Jang spoke on Friday while inspecting the scene of Tuesday’s explosions in Jos.

The governor, who described the perpetrators of the incident, as enemies of the country, said nothing could stop President Goodluck Jonathan’s bid to seek re-election in 2015.

He said, “Nigeria is at war and this is the worst kind of war to fight when your enemies are unknown. Most of those who attack us are from outside Plateau or outside the country. They bring their bomb materials from outside and then assemble it in the state

“These people are from outside Plateau State and some are from outside Nigeria. When they come here, they don’t stay on trees, they stay in people’s houses and even the bombs are assembled in people’s houses. Why can’t we be patriotic enough to report them to relevant authorities?”  (osundefender)
