Walelavender: U mean the BH boys have migrated to FCT? They should be smoked out!If it was that easy, they would have been eradicated long ago not only in the North but places like Afghanistan, Somalia, etc where political Islam has reared its head Look at the crippling of Egypt by political Islam Though that of the BH group ideology is very amorphous largely fuelled by poverty and illiteracy fiscalcliff: Book boys in Abuja again?Yep check the graphic which was a screen grab off BBC's website Note the date too

The op was right It is truly on the BBC's webpage Na wa O! People are talking about conquering Mars, we Nigerians are battling BH and getting death threats to our corporate existence whether the current president wins or loses his re-election come 2015 Hmmn! Wahala dey A cell of suspected Islamists militants has opened fire on security forces in the capital, Abuja, officials say. The clash occurred at about 03:00 local time after a tip off about the location of a suspected Boko Haram weapons cache, Nigeria's spy agency said. The State Security Service did not give any details about casualties. A witness told the BBC that he saw dead bodies. Boko Haram is most active in north-eastern Nigeria where there is a state of emergency was imposed in May. But attacks have increased recently despite a massive military deployment to worst-affected areas. In the latest incident in Borno state, officials said at least 87 people were killed in an attack by militants, who disguised themselves in military uniforms at a checkpoint set up outside the town of Benisheik. They shot dead those trying to flee. The group wants to create an Islamic state across Nigeria and has waged a deadly insurgency since 2009. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-24178048 |
