North East Lawmaker says He is Ready to Give up His 1 Life for Peace

The lawmaker representing Chibok, Damboa and Gwoza in Borno, Ahmahdu Usman Jaha, has said that he is ready to give out his life if that would guarantee peace in the north east.

Jaha said this on Wednesday at the floor of the House of Representatives while lamenting over the killing of 30 persons by Boko Haram insurgents in Auno.

“I’ve said without fear of any contradiction that I am ready to give out my life if those in the northeast can live in peace.

“The most painful thing on earth is for you to stay in your comfort zone while your constituents are dying like animals,” the lawmaker said.

According to him, the incident happened as a result of negligence on the part of the Nigerian Army.

He also accused the army of failing to take action despite receiving fillers about the attack, hours prior.
