edey2real:
U are really a graduate of UNIMAID.

Balyz: How dare you say we are sympathetic towards their cause. You need to come down here and see the death and destruction these lunatics unleashed on us yesterday. I reside far away from those areas, but i went to gwange this morning on business and saw it for myself. Miles away last nite one could hear explosions and gunfire rock in the air. Oga we HATE THEM MORE THAN ANY OF YOU SPECTATORS READING ABOUT IT IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR HOMES DOWN SOUTH. thats for the record

Balyz: You think its so simple as that abi? Give out info, the jtf swoop in and pick the bad guys up like a james bond movie? BH are known to kill informants by slitting their throats. Very much more inhumane than shooting or blowing them up. Most them atrocities are hardly reported in the mainstream media, but we here hear 'the word on the street'. So lets stop seeing tjings in black and white, lest informants end up in white six feet deep

Mcdondayan:
i feel sorry for you. My God will deliver Nigeria. Amen. But lyk someone said, give out info lyk what happened in Aba nd lets see how it goes. Pax dominus sid semper nobiscum.

illitrate: Explosions rock Maiduguri as troops raid homes

Explosions rocked parts of Maiduguri Saturday as troops engaged suspected Islamic radicals and raided homes, residents said.

The explosions, which began late Friday, occurred in three neighbourhoods notorious for attacks blamed on the Boko Haram sect, and residents fled as troops went door-to-door arresting people suspected of complicity, they said.

“Last night, there were explosions in Gwange area which went on till the late hours and today the explosions continued in Kalari and Budum neighbourhoods,” Modu Ari, a Budum resident, told AFP by phone from the city.

“Soldiers moved from house to house arresting people, forcing residents to flee their homes to escape arrest,” said Ari, who had left his house with his family on Saturday.

Ali Faltaye, a resident of Kalari, said troops battled suspected sect members in the area, sending residents fleeing to avoid being caught up in the fighting or arrested by soldiers.

“Since morning loud explosions have been going on in the area and soldiers have been breaking into homes making arrests”, Faltaye said.

Military and police authorities were not available for comment.

Troops from Joint Task Force who were deployed in the city two years ago to combat Boko Haram have been accused of burning homes and committing rights violations against residents whom they accuse of complicity with Boko Haram whenever there is an attack blamed on the sect.

The soldiers have denied such accusations.

The group has stepped up bomb and gun attacks since the start of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan.

Ɣou should be the one shocked ϯo death instead.

No matter what, the JTF should use intelligence anϑ surveillance techniques ϯo identify BH accomplices bt not by knocking down resident doors n arresting the victims as well.

Is †ђat Ђδω its done in sane societies. With the 1trillion earmarked fσr security in combating this terror. One would think the stupid security chiefs wld lay greater emphasis on gathering surveillance techniques n training as the beast approach ϯo end this thing.

But yet again, we are an insane society ​ so ​ ds is expected, bt still ​ so ​ wrong.

This brash technique the JTF are using will only turn the maiduguri faithful against them instead of befriending n helping them n ​ so​ if fσr 2years this approach has obviously failed, then why keep at it

But, as i stated earlier, we are in an Insane society after all
