Boko Haram: Why We Struck In Kano

By SaharaReporters, New York

The Boko Haram’s spokesperson Abul Qaqa, has today explained in details why they struck in Kano.

He told journalists in a telephone interview that Kano State Government should be held responsible for the continued incarceration of its members and innocent persons.

He said they have given the government ample time to set free their fellows to no avail hence the decision to strike and prove its worth to the government and security agencies.

Qaqa added that they will not relent in fighting for the rights of their members, many of whom he said are innocently held and that Nigerian government will continue to pay for the continued oppression and killing of innocent Muslims in the country.

“We are only scared of Allah but no one. We must regain our faith and freedom soon. No amount of propaganda against us will deter us. We are guided and strengthen by Allah as you can see.”

Below is the letter they sent to Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso in August 2011 and copied to the Emir of Kano.

The Jama’atu Ahlisunnah Lidda’awati Wal-Jihad Islamic sect (commonly known as Boko Haram) has fired a warning that it would attack Kano State if the security agencies continue to hunt its members in the state.

 

 BISMILLAHIR RAHMANIR RAHIM

 

 FROM: JAMA’ATU AHLISSUNAH LIDDAWATI WAL-JIHAD

TO:

1. DR. RABI’U MUSA KWANKWASO, GOVERNOR OF KANO STATE,

2. ALHAJI ADO BAYERO, EMIRE OF KANO,

3. ALHAJI ABBAS SUNUSI, WAMBAN KANO AND

4. ALHAJI YUSUF MAITAMA SULE, DAN MASANIN KANO

 

 ASSALAMU ALAIKUM WARAHATULAHI WABRAKATUH

Glory be to Allah and may the peace and blessing of Allah be upon the seal prophet (SAW).

The present security situation in Maiduguri, the continuously attack of security agents, ward heads, politician and the subsequent bomb blast in some part of the country, including force headquarters suicide bomb attack, who is responsible and why?

Every one may say it’s unfortunate, uncalled for or what have you. But TRUTH ARE SACRED AND WILL REMAIN TRUTH EVEN IF PEOPLE DON’T LIKE IT.

You all saw on AL-JAZEERA TV how unarmed men, youths, women, cripple and even under age were asked to laid on the ground and were shut on the head and chest by security agents. You all saw our leader MALLAM MUHAMMAD YUSUF with handcuff and shot severally. You all saw how both MASJID AND THE HOLY QUR’AN were being destroyed.

What are our crime? What damage have we caused or cost Nigeria government, which leads to our attack in Bauchi, Wudil, Gombe, Yobe and Maiduguri two years back? Is sticking to the teachings of the Holy Qur’an and Hadith a crime? Is funeral right a crime?

The reasons are clear:  1. The Nigerian Government is a KUFUR system serving BOTH UNITED NATION (UN) AND CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA (CAN) 2. “We the Jama’atu Ahlisunnah Lidda’awati Wal-Jihad are MUSLIMS and are from the NORTHERN part of the country who spent eight years agitating for ISLAMIC STATE, STRAVING TO BRING BACK THE LOST GLORY OF UTHMAN DAN FODIO.  WHAT IS WRONG WITH THAT? Is just to go back to the ways of our creator  (ALLAH) where justice, discipline, good morals, love and care, peace and progress etc will prevails.

Having got the clear picture of what happened, it have come our notice that the present Police Commissioner, Director State Security Service (DSSS) and Ward Heads have jointly started arresting our members IN YOUR STATE (KANO) known to you or not, a situation which we will not take lightly by the grace of ALLAH. We want to made it clear that the country called Nigeria belongs to Allah; same thing Kano and we are SERVANT OF ALLAH. Therefore our members should allow to stay where ever they wish. WE DID NOT TOUCH YOU, THEREFORE OUR MEMBERS (MUSLIMS) SHOULD NOT BE TOUCHED.

These same security agents attitude made MAIDUGURI, which is known as home of peace before to what it is today because they know is not their home town. Therefore these their URGLYATTITUDE MOST be check and stop with immediate effect and all those arrested should be released immediately, other- wise,I SWEAR WITH ALMIGHTY ALLAH who created Heaven and Earth! Who Sent Prophet upon Prophets right from ADAM (AS) to MUHAMMAD (SAW)!! Who Sent down ATTAURAH, AL-INGIL, AZZABUR and the HOLY QUR’AN!!! We may be force to DEPLOY OUR MEN TO YOUR STATE KANO AND MAKE IT WORST THAN MAIDUGURI BY THE GRACE OF ALLAH.

This is exactly same open letter we did to the then president, Late Umaru Musa Yar’adua, security chiefs and the people of Borno State two years back, which they thought was a joke. TO ALLAH WHO MADE ME WE ARE NOT JOKING.

We appeal you read this LETTER without prejudice for you to really understand the message we are trying to pass across.

May ALLAH grant us the understanding of the religion as preached and practice by the prophets and their rightly guided companions.

HE WHO LIVES BY THE SWORD MUST SURELY DIE BY IT.

It is not wrong to be grief,but dialogue has always been the way forward and violence. BH you claim you are fighting for the course of Allah, bt i assure you that when you will be judged, Allah will totally deny you, coz he doesnt kill to pass his message, only the devil does that. It is not everybody that is bombable or killable by you bombs and guns. No weapon fashioned against Nigeria and myself shall prosper. Hw do think you can convert me to a religion encourages killing, while religion is aimed at saving soul. Whatever has a beginning must surely have an end. God cannot be mocked, for what a man sows that he must reap.

it seems that whneever a major international event is coming to Nigeria, religious violence breaks out in certain parts of northern Nigeria so that, by definition, North Nigeria is a no-go for international events!

boko haram are hypocites

in the name of Allah most Gracious, most Merciful,boko haram has been in existence about 46years ago,but their activities is not cruel as it is today,they are clamoring for Islamic state but they forget that the only way to achieve that is knowledge of the religion[Islam] and sincererity.

So they bargain with our politicians who use them for their selfish purpose, i.e. when they get to power they will assist them to achieve their goal[Islamic state]and the end result is what we see today.

boko haram & kano attack.

As the governor and chief security officer of kano state,in whose hands God has placed the care and security of millions of lives(men, women & children)one would expect you to be able to handle even worst situations than this.where has all your intelligence gone to? y were their people made to lie down and shot without any resistence (I saw that on aljazeera)y are u detaining thier members without trial? y did u wait for them to come and attack kano despite being warned about the attack? Is this not enough to show u that u are not competent?
step down u fool!

Questions

Why Nigerian government shouldn't reconcile with Jama'atu Ahalis sunna lidaawati waljahad? I am also suprised why bombing and killing of people happening in northern Nigeria like Jos Southern Kaduna Madalla and presently in Kano why?

Kano and bauchi bomb

My dear compatroit this is twenty one century and ways of doing things has actually changed if u actually a nigeria born child u will not toll this part we are suffering now your attack on innocent nigerians b it muslim or christian will let ur face not to see the brightness of the sun, every governmernt is Gods instistution and any one that goes against it without justifification you must pay for it, what ever u are u,ll have to face ur unjustify action allah will fight for those u kill with ur group be warned. His anger no man can stand it. Frm Do good, if you fight all battle by yourself which battle will Alla fight for it mean there no need for prayer bc your God yourself

@oluseye

@oluseye. wat did CAN do to boko haram? i think u r bin foolish nd stupid. why apologisin? wat offence hav we commited for bin christians? nigeria cannot b made an islamic nation bcus it was nt so frm d beginin nd dey alone do nt own nija. dey can make an islamic nation in their core north but i knw dt Jos, Taraba state wil nt b part of dem. so pls my friend don talk blindly. dos fool shuld b hunt down lik d animals dt dey r nd nt d other way round pls.

some reasonable pple.

some reasonable pple hav wel spoken nd am pleased wit bello d way he spoke nd d other moslem fellows who hav taken time to clarify us. but harun u r nt bin just infact it is pple like u dt r d BH dt we r lookin for. how can d christians kil demselves on d day dey r celebratin d birth of d Mesoah? wen we all heard dt kabiru sokoto claimed responsibility. am a christain but my fellow nigerians moslems who hav all spoken well let us join hands nd fight dis animals.

2potential terrorists.

2 both xtians and muslims who have blatantly insulted each other's beliefs, u are all potential terrorists who at present are just gutless enough to hide behind d anonymity of blogs. Why can't you all be civil and respect each other's belief? In layman terms- i don't eat shit, you do. It's okay by me as long as u don't try forcing me to join u, vice-versa. Bh is no doubt islamic but definitely rogue and also a scourge to true islamists.
It's true many xtians have died as well as muslims but how does fighting each other help?

boko haram

the northan nig. produce the highest humanitaran ie ex militry officers emirs police officrs etc now this bh clams to be musilem killing people in this region and its allowed well if the country divided becouse the southern is the presedent u north want the country un governable note this, the southern will not be a begger becouse we have what it take to be southern nig

Tell them to bomb mosque

Tell them to bomb their own worship places (MOSQUE) if is not religious crisis,Nigerian Muslims stop deceiving Christians,do you see us carrying bible and going to places or mosque to bomb it in the name of our God? wake up Christians is time to pray for our God to scattered them.

ALLAH IS SUPREME

My only concern is to those who are abusing theirselves thinking they are abusing ALLAH(TA) and muslims, what is our offence even as wedisassociate ourselves from the activities of BH.For ur utterances ur end will be worst than the Boko Haram people and you will also rot in the highest grade of hell(Jahanama)AMIN.

MY QUESTION TO THE BOKO HARAM LEADERS

What is happening in arewa is now getting to worst, because innocent people are dying losing their freedom, and if you can remember there is a verse from the Qur'an that say 'Allah tells us not to kill innocents (5:32)'. Most of the peoples you are killing are Muslims while you know the punishment for that.

God flight for us

How can they say is not religion when Boko Haram Leader is swearing by Allah what ease do they have to do to make us see a religious crisis in this country, please we need to separate. Our bible never say we should avenge our misunderstanding and we live by that, that is love and care for humility. How can you go church to bomb peaceful people who are praying to their God and not call that religious crisis!!!!!
God in heaven who say verge is his will surly bring them to book in Jesus Name Amen.
