(PHOTOS) Aggrieved Chibok Women Storm Abuja, Protest At National Assembly. #BringBackOurGirls

Aggrieved mothers and other indigenes of Chibok, Borno State, today in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, staged a protest to demand the immediate rescue or release of the more than 200 secondary school girls abducted by suspected Boko Haram insurgents on April 14.

The protesters, most of them members of the Kibaku Development Association, Chibok, converged at Eagle Square in Nigeria’s capital. From there, they marched to the National Assembly to submit a protest letter. The women were led into the premises of the national legislature by a group of senior female police officers.

Nigeria has become a place where a day is not complete unless one or more tragic event happens. It is either a very old man or a police officer rapes a minor; a large amount of money is missing from the government coffer; armed robbers freely robbed a bank; a policeman or an NSCD corps helps blow an oil pipeline. It could also be that some students sleeping in their dormitories are killed; some over 200 girls are kidnapped from a school; MEND blows up and shuts down an oil facility; kidnappers take hostages; soldiers or policemen threaten hapless citizens with their weapons; a baby factory is discovered; human remains found in a forest or in buildings and the list goes on. Even if all of these combined happen in a day, the day is still not complete in Nigeria until the deviant Boko Haram or elusive Fulani herdsmen massacre a number of people across the land. This is the Nigeria of today.

The frequency with which these horrific events happen makes us forget in quick succession the terror culture pervading our land. The fact that the shock of the next event always surpasses the previous one is gradually making us to heed President Jonathan’s advice that terror has come to stay and we should live with it. It has numbed our emotion to horror. The regularity of occurrence and the incompetence of a political class aided by the docility of the citizens does not even allow us to probe into the cause of events.

Murtala Nyako should be impeached - Femi Aribisala.

VIce-Admiral Murtala Nyako is the Governor of Adamawa State. He was once Governor of Niger State. He was formerly Chief of Naval Staff of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. He was also formerly Deputy Chief of Defense Staff. All this suggests he is a man with enough pedigree to occupy the highest echelons of government in Nigeria. However, his memo to the Northern States Governors’ Forum of April 16, 2014 and his other recent public pronouncements now indicate otherwise. Going by these, Nyako is no longer fit to be governor of Adamawa State, or any state in Nigeria for that matter.

Nyako’s diatribe

In his memo, Nyako redefined Nigeria, creating a new country out of it which he referred to as “the North.” Therefore, he addressed his broadside to “Fellow Governors and Citizens of the North.” Nyako insists: “Northern Nigeria is on its own.” But we may well ask the governor when the North became a country by itself. Having conferred statehood on the North, Nyako asks his Northern compatriots: “should we not… consider a declaration of Northern Nigerian Amnesty to the culprits (of the Northern insurgency) and consequently squarely address all other matters connected with the Amnesty and Boko-Haram syndrome?”

ARMED FORCES SET TO EMBARK ON MASSIVE RECRUITMENT TO FIGHT TERRORISM...............

The Federal Government has given  the armed forces and other security agencies the nod  to embark on mass recruitment to fight terrorism.

According to PUNCH, the directive was to give fillip to the war against terrorism in the country.

It was also learnt that those who attended the expanded National Security Council meeting in Abuja on Thursday emphasised the need for the recruitment.

A highly placed military source said that   President  Goodluck Jonathan  issued the  directive for more recruitment into the army in March after the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen Kenneth Minimah,  had briefed him about the operations of the army.

The source, who did not want to be named because he was not authorised to speak on the  matter,  said   the army did not  begin   the recruitment immediately because of the need to expand training facilities in parts of the country. It was learnt that the army would commence  the recruitment in May 2014.

LIV 0 CHE 2

Demba Ba's first-half goal and Willian's injury-time strike gave Chelsea a stunning 2-0 win over Liverpool at Anfield. Here are three things from their Premier League clash:

1. Chelsea take the crown off Liverpool's heads.

The temptation is to call Chelsea the "party poopers," but the significance of this win means they were much more than that. They were the men who arrived at a coronation intent on grabbing the crown before it could be placed on anyone else's head.

BACARY SAGNA SET TO QUIT ARSENAL AFTER CONTRACT RENEWAL BREAKDOWN.

Bacary Sagna is set to reject Arsenal’s final contract offer move that will spell the end of his eight-year stay at the club.

Sagna has already rejected two formal offers and manager Arsene Wenger confirmed on Friday the club have tabled their final attempt to keep him.

The last is understood to be for two years with an option for a further 12 months, but Sagna’s £100,000-a-week demand has not been met. Sagna, 31, has told friends he will not sign the deal, meaning he will leave after the FA Cup final against Hull on May 17.

The defender, a target for Manchester City, Galatasaray and Fenerbahce, knows his next contract will be his last big one and feels he can earn more elsewhere.

Sagna has been infuriated by the club’s attitude, feeling he has not be rewarded for his loyalty.

AMAZING REVELATIONS ON BOKO HARAM AND THE SAMBISSA FOREST CAMPS. #BringBackOurGirls...

Some of the girls who escaped.

Many have berated the Nigeria Military over the shoddy handling of Boko Haram, afterall they are humans and not spirits. A report from TRENT claims that the Military refused to engage Boko Haran insurgents who kidnapped over 200 girls at a school in Borno in the deadly Sambissa forest claiming they were not given orders to attack the sect.

Read more below.....

Firstly, we would like to thank everyone for the support pouring in, in response to our calls for assistance and contributions towards the obligatory mission to free our 200 abducted daughters. The promises from so many blessed youth, to head to the conflict zone and join the effort to rescue our girls and sack the terrorists out of their comfortable camps, is beyond words. May the Almighty protect and reward you in the ways that He only can.

Nigerians and the world must know what the true situation in Sambisa and other forests in Borno is. It was in the media that the families who ventured in pursuit of their daughters turned back when they approached the terrorist camps. The media reported that what they saw, was “serious,” but they will not say it for security concerns. We are obligated to reveal what they saw.

IMPATIENT MANCHESTER UNITED FIRES DAVID MOYES PLUS 12 MOST DAMAGING RESULTS THAT CLAIMED HIS JOB.

Patience has finally run out at Old Trafford, with David Moyes sacked by the club. Eleven Premier League defeats, a failure to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in 19 years and little sign of any serious progress meant the United board were compelled to act.

The season that followed Sir Alex Ferguson's departure has been tougher than expected. Here are the painful defeats that led to Moyes' departure.

PRESIDENT JONATHAN PICTURED IN A JOYOUS MOOD IN KANO BARELY 24HRS AFTER OVER 85 PERISHED IN #ABUJABOMBBLAST.

At a time when the nation is mourning the unfortunate death of over 85 innocent Nigerians in the #AbujaBombBlast, the nation's President who visited the scene of the blast and the hospital where survivors were recovering still managed to attend a political rally in Kano barely 24hrs after the bomb blast.

Meanwhile, many of the abducted school girls in Borno are still missing...

It's a shame...

MOPOL ASSAULTS WOMAN IN LAGOS

A drunken police officer with the Mobile Police, or Mopol, Unit #20, in Lagos, who was later identified as Tafa Mohammed, was caught breaking the law. 

A citizen video photographer captured officer Mohammed brutalizing two women with a hidden camera, filming this disturbing footage at a safe distance. This illegal action by the officer erupted when a street food vendor would not issue him fish to finish up his beer. The food vendor was said to have declined to sell fish alone, except to those buying food with it, a vendor policy that angered the policeman. 

Mohammed, a mobile policeman, was reeking of alcohol, say eyewitnesses to this event. Mohammed took on a female customer who was buying food from the same vendor at the time he got there, and threw her into a nasty pond of putrid muddy water.

#ABUJABOMBBLAST AND PRESIDENT JONATHAN'S INSENSITIVE RALLY IN KANO

President Goodluck Jonathan made a mockery of his sympathy visit to the site of Monday’s devastating bombing at the Nyanya Motor Park, near Abuja, in which 75 innocent Nigerians died, while 254 others were injured, by attending a political rally in Kano, barely 24 hours after the horrendous incident. Jonathan led party chiefs to Kano where they received Ibrahim Shekarau, a former governor, who recently defected to the Peoples Democratic Party. His televised dance and backslapping while the dead were yet to be buried and with the fate of survivors still hanging in the balance were another blunder.  No wonder the President’s action has provoked national outrage.

But the Presidency says the public indignation is an attempt by politicians to score cheap political points. Labaran Maku, the Information Minister, says, “You will notice that whenever there is any significant story, something will just come negatively. So the purpose is to demoralise, disrupt government, society and to set people against each other and create paralysis…So if we are to say we will do nothing because of the strike, then it means that terrorists would have succeeded in putting a stall each time they strike on our country.” As he put it, going to Kano was a loud statement that terrorists will not stop this country from working.

#POLICERAPECASE - DPO AND TWO OTHERS HAVE BEEN ARRESTED.

THE MILITARY LIED ABOUT THE RESCUE OF KIDNAPPED SCHOOL GIRLS AS MOST OF THE GIRLS ARE STILL MISSING.

 

Nigeria’s armed forces have formally issued a retraction to the unfolding story of the kidnapping of more than 100 female students in the country’s northeast Monday.

The statement, issued by Chris Olukolade, a Major General who also serves as Coordinator, and the Director of Defense Information, centers on a discrepancy of fact, and concerns a mis-quote from the School Principal whose students were abducted in the Monday siege. In an attempt to set the record straight, Olukolade’s statement reads as follows:

The controversy that has been generated around the efforts at securing the lives of the abducted students of Government Girls’ Secondary School, Chibok is unfortunate. The ongoing frantic efforts of security forces along with vigilante groups including hunters working to locate and free the abducted students have continued to be keenly monitored at the Operation Centre of the Defense and Army Headquarters as regular progress reports are being received from troops on the ground.
