Spiritual head of One Love Family, Sat Guru Maharaj Ji says
the best way to tackle the Boko Haram menace in the country
is for us to go back to our traditions and culture. In an
interview with City People this week, Maharaj Ji said the
intervention of the international community was a welcomed
idea and that it would make the fight against Boko Haram a lot
easier because unlike Nigerians, the foreigners know that there
is a Christ of this age, that is him (Maharaj Ji), walking on the
planet and so carrying him along in the fight would bring a stop
to acts of terrorism. Excepts from the interview;
Asked what his take is on the present state of insecurity
in Nigeria, Maharaj Ji said;
"Very simple. Because there is no security challenge per
say, except for the fact that the Northern oligarchy
believes Nigeria belongs to them. They don't believe in
anybody whether you are from the South-South, South-
East or South-West. They feel that Nigeria is an Hausa
country and it is not, we have three regions. We have
major tribes. Yoruba in the South-West, Ibo in the South-
East, then the South-South the Ijaws etc. The North must
accept that Ibo, Yoruba, Ijaw, Itsekiri, Urhobo...we are
all one Nigeria, that is what is worrying them. Then
again, religion. They should know that God has no
religion. The only religion of God is accepting you the
way you are. If I don't accept you, how will the place be
okay for us?
He also spoke on the assistance being rendered to Nigeria by
the international community, saying there is no shame is asking
for help
"There is no problem asking for what you need if you
don't have it. No country has exclusive power over
improvement in technology. There is no how under the
present conditions Nigerians should fear asking the
Americans for help or the British or the Germans. If
there is going to be any fear, it is still going to be from
the north. At the beginning, our fathers just gave in like
that, but this time, we are not going to give in, no more.
The only solution to Boko Haram menace is for us to go
back to our traditions and culture. This time we have to go
into tradition and culture to find the real ideal power to be
able to sort or mediate and get things sorted out. People
should not be afraid. They are going to assist. They are
going to help and I know that. If I look at it from the
higher point of view, it is time for them too to come and
tap from the special grace from Nigeria because they
unlike our people know that there is a Christ of this age
walking on planet earth and so this situation is for them
to carry him along so that all these up and downs, crises
in all these places could actually stop" he said.
Sat Guru Maharaj Ji also spoke on the Super Eagles going for
the World Cup. He said they can win the World cup only if
they stay away from wearing blue pants throughout the
competition
"I have given my recommendations and I don't know how
Nigerians feel about it. I have told them that they can win
this cup if they stop using blue jersey. They have
accepted but what about blue pants? They should do away
with it. Keshi must inspect all the pants they are wearing.
I am begging them throughout this competition, its a
national affair and not Super Eagles of Lagos but Super
Eagles of Nigeria" he said
