A human rights group, Youth and Conflict Resolution Initiatives, YCRI has warned the federal government to prosecute Boko Haram sponsors so as to avoid another uprising of the insurgents in the country.
YCRI in a statement by its International Relations, Mr Efemena Agadama said “This is acceptably vital in conflict resolution to deter a recurrence as there still remains no statistical or logical explanation on how those Boko Haram fighters alleged to be uneducated and jobless could have amassed those heavy war arsenals and destructive technology to have attacked and seized sizable amount of lands from the Nigerian federation.
“The audacious belief that some powerful individuals and groups can purchase weapons of war for jobless youths and unleash mayhem, destruction and deaths on sleeping communities must stop.
“We therefore, call on the executive, legislative and judicial arms of the federal government of Nigeria to probe the mass slaughtering of Nigerians since 1999. It’s only this process that can forestall a second Boko Haram uprising somewhere else in Nigeria. The sponsors must be arrested and prosecuted.”
