Cardinal Okogie



Why bombings will continue.

Archbishop of Lagos Anthony Cardinal Okogie has said bombings in Nigeria would continue because of the country porous security network.

Okogie spoke with reporters in Awka, Anambra State on Tuesday, during the inauguration of the Saint Peters Catholic Church at Nkwelle Awka, built by the traditional Prime Minister of Awka kingdom, Ozo Austin Ndigwe.

He said: “When Musa Yar’Adua was alive, he came with Point Agenda and people said no it was too much. This man, Jonathan has he even mentioned any agenda”.

“Now, if you were to be a wise man, you will take the agenda, look at it and pick one or two or three and try to fulfil it but nothing, what are we are hearing are lies, lies, lies and lies. To me, it is useless.

“Again, on the Boko haram issue, if you look at how Nigeria is handling this thing, they seem to be handling it with kid gloves. It is not the thing you handle anyhow, our Heavenly father is on the side of the poor.

“A good number of times, he has shown us the people doing this thing, our government, those in power they know these are the people but what have they done, nothing.

“A senator was caught and you journalists brought it out, another minister was equally mentioned as those financing Boko Haram, what did they do to them. They went and granted them bail but look at that Nigerian boy Mutallab, he is still under lock and key with the Americans.

“He has not been released. What they are doing is to extract knowledge from him to know those behind the bombing; now how can you release a criminal because he is a rich man. If they were to be poor men, they would say hold him. Is that the kind of country you will love to have.
