Kogi is getting too close for comfort....these bokoharam extremists are spreading gradually. I think there is no better time for state policing.

and I tell you. . .Okene people are very stubborn. .as long as you're on the ground, youre not safe cos that place is mountainous, and those guys are experts when it comes to living inside and on mountains.
The soldiers should look before they leap. .

Abdul Qaqa has finally taken the BH to his backyard....kogi is proving to be very attractive for their activities.
my experience in the university parades the Okene people(Ebira) as very fanatical lots and knows how to ferment religious problem and hate among the student community.
