Kaduna Train Terrorists Releases 11 More victims after APC Primaries

Rev Obinma Akukwe is glad that the Kaduna train terrorists who kidnapped about 70 passengers on a Kaduna bound on the day APC used consensus option to select a National Chairman, have released additional eleven of them, four days after the primary elections was conducted without consensus as we earlier predicted. I call upon them to release the rest in the interest of peace and stability of the nation.

Rev Obinna Akukwe is glad that President Buhari did not impose any consensus candidate on the ruling APC and heeded our warning on five occasions that intelligence at our disposal suggests that the terrorist attacks was meant to forestall any further imposition of candidates by Buhari.

I have also warned that the fate of the kidnapped victims is dependent on how the presidency handles the primary elections.

I also warned five times that intelligence at our disposal from international and local sources points at aggrieved APC politicians as sponsors of the terror attacks, and that ignoring the warnings of Rev Obinna Akukwe is very dangerous, matter how highly placed the person claims to be.

Immediately after the Owo Catholic Church attacks, I warned for the last time in the piece titled: Owo Catholic Church Attacks: Train Terrorists Waiting for APC Primaries “ and stated that Buhari should handle the APC primaries with care to avoid further terrorist embarrassment. I wrote in the piece that;

“I have written severally and warned the APC leadership to jettison the consensus option of selecting a presidential candidate because the terrorists will strike at soft targets and critical infrastructure and embarrass the President.

“I also stated categorically that our intelligence sources hinted that the train terrorists will not release the captives until after the outcome of the primaries.

“President Buhari have called APC leaders and governors twice in the past seven days and insisted at the consensus option and the politicians have swung into action to embarrass him as I warned.

“Let Buhari not wreck Nigeria. The gang up against his regime this last one year is massive”

Rev Obinna Akukwe says , Thank You to President Buhari for saving the nation from worse, coordinated terrorist attacks, in the mould of Kaduna Train Attacks and Owo Church attacks - now that the political tension is over, let the terrorists and sponsors spare us more bloodshed and release the rest of their captives.

It is obvious that the train terrorists are glad with the results of the APC Primaries, and instead of killing the captives as they threatened, they released eleven of them.

I appeal to the APC political sponsors of the terrorists, waiting to know the outcomes of the battle for APC running mate before their final decision on the captives, on the captives, that Buhari has conceded enough. Any attempt to push him to the may bring out the tiger in the Katsina born general.
