Northern leader's Children should end insurgency-President's adviser

The special adviser to President Goodluck Jonathan on Niger Delta affairs Mr Kingsley Kuku has advised Northern elders to call their sons and daughters to order  to end insurgency over the weekend.
Kuku, disclosed this while receiving a letter of endorsement of President Goodluck Jonathan for the 2015 presidential election from the leadership of the National Associations of Nigerian Students, NANS, in Abuja.
He said: “We believe strongly that the northern leaders can also call their sons and daughters who are currently detonating bombs and going on suicide missions to lay down their arms and tow the path of peace.

“This is the best approach to ending the Boko Haram insurgency, which we believe is not being carried out by ghosts but human beings from a section of the country and aided and abetted by fighters from Chad and other countries just to Islamise Nigeria.

“What the North needs to do to end Boko Haram is to rise up and put an end to insurgency. Northern leaders should rise to the occasion and call Boko haram leaders to order as Jonathan did when he was Vice President. We are ready to share our Niger Delta experience with them if they seek our assistance in a bid to end the problem in the North,” Kuku said.

At the ceremony held in Abuja, the President of NANS, Comrade Tijani Usman Shehu, presented a letter from the students’ body endorsing President Jonathan for a re-election in the next month’s election.

Shehu claimed that President Jonathan had done enough to win their hearts.
