Governor of Borno wants President Jonathan to negotiate with Boko Haram

I am very sceptical of the Governor of Borno state, Kashim Shettima asking President Jonathan to negotiate with Boko Haram men if that is what it will take to release the abducted Chibok girls. The Governor made this remark during an interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour last night.The reason why i am sceptical is ,this was the same governor who said if he revealed what he knew heads will roll..he also said at another time he had an idea where the girls were being held. If he had info that could make heads rol,why not reveal it to the government so they can use it to get to the bottom of all this mess? Does he want the Boko Haram men in custody released? And if so ,why? Im sure you can work that out yourself.

Here's what he said on CNN last night.

"The issue of not negotiation with the terrorists – it’s out of the question. If it means talking to the devil, it means the devil can come down, we can get back
our girls. The group that kidnapped the girls are a bunch of raving lunatics.

"Do we have any other option? If I have to talk to the devil to secure the release of the girls, I will do so. President Jonathan did not act on time and did not talk to me over the kidnappings until 19 days after.’’

He also said for the first three weeks after the girls were abducted, the whole thing was politicized. 

Also speaking, a woman leader of the All Progressive Party Sharon Ikeazor said the situation could have been salvaged on time if the President had acted immediately. She said the girls had their cellphones with them and had contacted their parents about their abduction.
