The
General Overseer, Kingdom of the Love Church of Christ in Lagos State,
Prophet Felix Oluyemi has urged northern leaders to initiate dialogue
with Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau, in order to end insurgency in
the North, which has led to the death of thousands of Nigerians.
Oluyemi, who addressed journalists on the
state of the nation, in preparation to mark his ministry’s 20th
anniversary, said the war against terrorism would end with the
intervention of northern leaders.
He said, “The Emirs of Sokoto and Kano,
Gen. Ibrahim Babangida (retd), Gen. Abdusallam Abubakar (retd) Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari (retd) and Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, among others must
come together and seek ways of reaching out to their sons in the sect.
“As elders and leaders of the North, they
are the ones that can appeal to their sons to end this insurgency. As
leaders, they are the ones that can get information on how best to talk
to Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau. Getting across to Shekau and
appealing to him does not make them members of the sect. When there was
Oodua Peoples Congress crisis in the South-West, Yoruba elders including
the Ooni of Ife, intervened and called their sons to order.”
The cleric added that for dialogue with Boko Haram to be fruitful, it has to be initiated by northern leaders
