He said: “Indication is rife that Boko Haram has entered South West. Evidence of their incursion into the zone was the explosion in Apapa, Lagos, of which, Shekau, the Islamist sect leader, claimed responsibility.”
It was also gathered that the OPC leader advised political leaders in the South West to proffer a drastic solution to curtail the Boko Haram menace in the region.
He berated the governors in the south west for their nonchalant attitudes towards the Boko Haram menace, saying none of them had called him, as the leader of the OPC, to discuss proactive measures to curtail the spill over.
“I have been to 51 countries launching OPC. I’ve just returned from Europe and what they were asking me is on the issue of Boko Haram.
“We need to organize a stakeholders’ meeting on security in order to chart a way forward on how to secure our region against Boko Haram.
“The issue of Boko Haram is a collective responsibility.
Everyone must harmonise his or her potentials to curtail the menace as the sect members cannot be fought from afar as their identity is hidden,” Adams opined.
Commenting on the concluded National Conference in Abuja, Adams, who was a delegate to confab, said the resolution of the conference recommends a true federalism synonymous to the United State of America which makes its political system to thrive.
