Dear Nairalanders,
Many of us resident in Yola woke up this morning to find out we could not connect to any of the major cellphone networks(MTN, GLO, AIRTEL etc). As at this moment we are completely incommunicado. The general atmosphere in the town is peaceful and calm with people going about their daily business. No one seems to know the reason why all the networks are shutdown. Yola has never had any case of insurgenency form the Boko Haram sect. Anybody who can come up with an explanation to this will be greatly appreciated. From a concerned citizen.

Moderator please frontpage.

I am in the midst of the situation. I am reporting the situation as currently experienced.

Friend, did you say Adamawa has not known any insurgency? I thought it's among the SOE states?
@OP, Well, I guess it must be for the security operations going on there. Maybe there's a reliable intel the JTF has got so it needs to cut the insurgents off communication. It must be a challenging time for our brovs up north. They must have paid in lumpsome for this whole mess. But whatever such sacrifice gets us all as a nation out of this mess may be said to be worth it. I pray heavens to help you all with the strength and sense to bear this pain.
God bless Nigeria and Nigerians

It has been reported in the media a few days back. The reason is because the boko boys rely heavily on 'intelligence' gathered by means of cellular communication.
Take a look at the links that reported the matter:
1. http://www.ipaidabribenaija.com/news/item/23517-security-telecoms-network-shutdown-in-adamawa-borno-yobe-states
2. http://www.tribune.com.ng/news2013/index.php/en/component/k2/item/12075-emergency-rule-military-shuts-down-telecoms-networks-imposes-curfew-in-adama-senate-opens-debate-next-to-use-air-strikes-when-necessary

Nice, am loving it. next to join na Tv and radio stations. Wen una stay 2 months without any communication, then bokos are rams go know say western education is great. AIRTEL, GLO, MTN AND ETISALAT make una go off for 6 months.

venorite: so how re u posting this op?

U see ur lyf?Use ur brain rightly jor

Welcome Development!
We must all make scarifice for peace.
My prayer is that JTF should complete their operations on time, so that people can begin to communicate.
I had that it yeilded much results in Borno and Yobe states. Adamawa is peaceful, but those boko boys are trying to migrate to the state.
These are the last days of Boko haram. Their sponsors will soon be fished out.

I really love Gongola.....
God bless former Gongola state, God bless Adamawa, God bless Nigeria!!!

No cause for ALARMS!

Its part of the sacrifice you guys have to make for the SOE to succeed.

Sorry about that

War in Africa: it is the imperialist elites who insist on inventing imaginary, shadowy,enemies, when the enemy is the Imperialist elites themselves. Imperialist media War propaganda manipulates us into intensifying genocide as the imperialist capitalists corporations rake profits.

The imperialist capitalist philosophy is predicated upon the destruction of humanity, the annihilation of the will of the people. imperialists do not save lives, they save money.

The imperialist capitalist system is designed to help the powerful continent and enslave Africa;it is the very vessel of slavery.

Imperialist capitalist global system thrives on stealing the resources of the poor,and starving them so they can't complain. imperialist international police state,designed to ensure that the oppressed remain silently oppressed.
Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism.

In order for capitalism to generate greater profits than the home market can yield ,Imperialist merging of banks and industrial cartels produces finance capitalism.

We must straighten our backs and strive for our freedom. No one can ride you, unless your back is bent to be rode on. Straighten your mind. Seizing power from the Imperialist capitalists and their local puppet and putting in the hands of the struggling masses. We thought Hitler was the worse of the worst but we have many of Hitlerians today in Africa causing genocides, mass destruction, unnecessary wars etc.

GIANT STRIDE: Dats serious;no wonder couldn't reach my people in Numan..Guess its nt unconnected to the security situation..I pray for peace IJN

Numan is safe...

Just got offline with a buddy over there.

Besides the network ish, all is well in Numan.

You are killing in the name of corporate war than saving your butts.There's nothing heroic about being a boko haram/soldier & jtf

Ode, how was internet sourced before d coming of GSM?? U be learner ?

This is just to hurt the masses because the Boko Haram commanders use satelite phone(thuraya) to communicate.

I still wonder what is Adamawa doing in this SOE to be frank, kano and bauchi are more hostile abi oga jona they fear kwankwaso

Wait let me talk to the officer in charge.

THE MOST BRILLIANT STEP EVER TAKEN BY THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT TO FRUSTRATE ALL SECTS AND INSURGENTS..... THANKS GEJ

i heard borno yobe hav been experiencing d same situation 4 d past 2 months.

Dont worry! Network will be restored as soon as possible. Please endure
this as it is for your own safety.
