Amnesty for Boko Haram is legalization of terrorism – Anglican Youths

Anglican Youth Fellowship, Nigeria, had on Friday,
opined that the Federal government’s decision to
grant amnesty to the Islamic fundamentalists was
nothing but to legalize terrorism in Nigeria.
The President of AYF, Wuse Archdeaconry Council,
Barrister Isaac Harrison stated this during a workshop
organised for youth, with the theme; “Empowered To
Impact The World”, in Abuja.
According to him, “We cannot grant amnesty to people
we do not know, we cannot also grant amnesty to
people who had already made up their minds that
whether there is dialogue or not, they will go on with
whatever they are doing, If Boko Haram actually need
peace, they will not be killing those that are moving
towards that peace.
“So, the Anglican Youth Fellowship members are not
in support of the amnesty to Boko Haram.
“You should remember that some months ago, US
listed Nigeria as a terrorist country, it was by the
grace of God that we were able to release ourselves
from that situation, so, if we grant amnesty to Boko
Haram, it will means that Nigeria is a terrorist
country, because we will be seen to be legalizing
terrorism.”
