Following the security crisis that has become predominant and ravaged the economy and peaceful coexistence in the nation, Professor Daniel Saror, a former Vice-Chancellor of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, has alleged that Nigeria’s current security crisis is a well-coordinated agenda to spread the caliphate across the country.
Saror who made the allegation on Sunday at a thanksgiving service in Benue State, organized to mark his 80th birthday anniversary explained that the insecurity in Benue and other parts of the country is not an accident but deliberate.
He stressed that terrorist groups including Boko Haram are “highly connected” to stakeholders in the country and some other parts of the world.
He said: “the insecurity we are experiencing in Benue and Nigeria today is not an accident. It is a planned programme. Boko Haram does not consist of miscreants. They are intelligent people; they are highly connected in Nigeria and other countries in the world.
“Their mission is simple: they want to conquer and Islamise the nation. The Jihadists that you hear about in the North West are also not miscreants. They are highly connected, highly motivated, and highly experienced in their own ideas and what they want. They want to spread the caliphate throughout Nigeria”.
He further alleged that the armed Fulani herdsmen and Boko Haram insurgents have contacts that extend to the Middle East, Asia, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia among others, stressing that they are funded in billions of naira to execute the conquest agenda of the caliphate in the country.
Governor Samuel Ortom, who also attended the thanksgiving service, while giving a remark, described the Professor as a detribalised Nigerian who had recorded milestones in academia, politics among others, stressing that he deserved to be celebrated
