The former Deputy Senate President and a chief of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Ibrahim Mantu, said he had been finding it difficult to eat whenever he remembered the midnight killing of some students of Federal Government College in Yobe State and the abduction of 20 school girls by the members of Boko Haram Islamic sect.

He
made this claim in Abuja on March 4, 2014, Tuesday, during a National
Prayer Meeting organised by PDP Project Reloaded, a group within the
PDP. The ex-Senate President is the Chairman of this group’s National
Advisory Council.
Mantu
called on the members of the vicious Islamic sect to repent and turn
back to God or else “they reap what they sow”, emphasised that their
menace had defied human efforts and military solution.
“Presently,
I find it difficult to eat well. Anytime the massacre and abduction of
20 school children cross my mind, I find it difficult to eat well. You
can imagine 20 young school girls being taken away by the insurgents.
“These
whole problems have defied human efforts. Normally, when the military
is drafted to a particular place, one would have expected that the
problem has come to an end. From my observation in Nigeria, once
security agencies are drafted to situations like that, tension will calm
down.
“We are here to
mourn our brothers, sisters, children and all the victims of the
insurgency. The country is engulfed in insecurity, Boko Haram in the
North-East, kidnapping in the South-East and daylight robbery in the
South-West. If you sow good, you reap good. God should touch them (Boko
Haram); they should repent so that God will forgive them,” Mantu said.
