Ijaw Youth Council Condemn Boko Haram Attack On DSS

Yesterday's attack of suspected Boko Haram insurgents on the Department of the State Security Service, DSS in Abuja was condemned by the Ijaw Youth Council. According to the statement signed by the Spokesman of IYC, Eric Omare, the attack threatened the life of President Goodluck Jonathan.
"The IYC regards the attack very close to the Presidential Villa, housing President Goodluck Jonathan and his family as a threat to the life of Mr. President,"the statement reads.
"We wish to warn the sponsors of Boko Haram that this is a joke taken too far. The IYC would vehemently resist any attempt on or threat to the life of President Goodluck Jonathan. Nigeria cannot survive any attempt on the life of President Jonathan. Boko Haram members and their sponsors are warned!
"The IYC strongly believes that there are saboteurs within the Nigeria security forces who are actively aiding the activities of Boko Haram. There is no explanation for Boko Haram members having the effrontery to confront security agencies for more than three hours at the heavily fortified DSS headquarters very close to the Presidential Villa, nation's seat of power.
"Therefore, the IYC calls on the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Goodluck Jonathan to carry out a massive overhaul of the security agencies to identity Boko Haram moles within the security agencies and fish them out immediately. The IYC wish to warn that no nation can win a battle whether against terrorism or of any kind in a situation in which the insurgents are actively aided by insiders. History tells us that infiltration of enemies into an opponent's camp has led to nations losing war."
It would be recalled that a shootout occurred on Sunday between the DSS operatives, asprison inmates attempted to escape.
