publisher: Ever since 2009 Boko Haram has been attacking several Northern/North-Eastern towns at will. Most times they attack such towns, hoist flags, hang around and flee, sometimes they lurk around until Nigerian security forces arrive and chase them out-yet no one ever presented the narrative that Boko Haram had TAKEN OVER such towns.

Unfortunately, today, Boko Haram through its massive media propaganda partners have included the term 'TAKEOVER' into our national counter-terrorism vocabulary. Thus, if a small band of terrorists decide to conduct their usual deadly raids on a small remote town or village in North Eastern Nigeria, Boko Haram's media network quickly gets to work and tells the world that Boko Haram has TAKEN OVER yet another Nigerian territory.

The strategy here is for Boko Haram to continue to disperse small/medium band of fighters to many remote towns and villages, while their media partners simulteanously continue announcing to the world that Boko Haram has 'OVERRUN' more Nigerian territories.

Innundating the Nigerian polity with multiple media reports of takeovers and overruning of Nigerian territories is meant to plunge our security forces into a state of confusion and disarray with a pinch of hopelessness. This can cause a large number of Nigerian soldiers to say to themselves, "Why bother,these Boko Haram guys are everywhere." -The Nigerian army's morale will gradually continue to dampen and at a later date the insurgents will abandon those smaller towns, regroup and attack major towns like Maiduguri,Yola and Damaturu in full force.

This is Boko Haram's strategy and I hope all Nigerians,especially those with ownership or access to media outlets (online and offline) are listening.

A simple counter-propaganda strategy from all patriotic Nigerian media outlets (and the rest of us) is to continue reporting every single Boko Haram attack for what it really is "A COWARDLY ATTACK" and NOT equate such attacks to territorial gains.

Afterall, in spite of Boko Haram's alleged control of several Nigerian territories, we are yet to see the head of their caliphate (Shekau) relocate or move into one of the airconditioned secretariat offices located in territories he claims to control.

Again, let's join hands and fight Boko Haram with everything we've got.

Can we see the pictures of how and when your mother gave birth to you , so that we can ascertain if you were pre mature, or you were actually the same, or you have grown normally.

caesaraba: Objection! While it is good to state the facts as they are, it is also important not to down -play the scale of Boko Haram operations. Yes," operations."

Boko Haram has obviously grown exponentially in recent times because they have been constantly underrated and their attacks down-played by pro-government persons who have always held the opinion that stating the facts will do political damage to whoever they so support.

What is a take-over? If boko haram attacks a town, drives out the authority (soldiers, police, emir, boys scout et al) and then proceeds to hold that town for even 1 hour, that is a take over for that period of time.

Boko haram has stopped attacking and running away why? Simple. When a person becomes successful, he/she attracts many friends.
Boko haram has been left to thrive for so long in the NE region that more experienced and brazen fighters from other groups like Ansar-deen who have been dealt with and chased out of Mali by France have poured in to swell their ranks. Remember Shekau sent 200 fighters to help them take over Mali during their own campaign abi? Where are the Chadean Rebels of old who used to carry out brazen robberies along Jos/Kaduna roads in those days? Where are all the miscellaneous miscreants inhabiting the North? Probably boko members now. Why not? They are a standing army now (like it or not) and we have better start seeing them as such. ...and standing armies pay salaries.

God Bless U

U ve bn saying d truth to nigerians/ NL since 100BC
The rate of amaljires n co was alarming den, but now dey ve all become Boko boys. We kip on hearing 50, 100, 200 .... Boko boys were killed n yet dey re moving rm town 2 town taking over. For d past yrs our budget for security has increased, n all is abt tackling dis insurgency, still our gallant soldiers re running away to cameroun. This is a wake up to service by all .govt or no govt. Dey shud stop trading blames but join hands n help d masses dat dey ve sworn to serve, GEJ shud also ask for help if necessary or fish out d bad eggs among d N army give dem death by hanging. So all dis nonsense can end. Whether takingover/ occupying , let BH b a forgotten story soon

God Bless Nigerian , no place like home.

These are words from a soldier I had an encounter with who was fresh from the battle up north a few days ago. "Journalists kill more soldiers with their words their words than the boko haram sects with their bullets. We kill these people in hundreds,but these never gets printed. But when the boko haram people hit a few of ours its all over the news"

Its as if we think alike.I wrote an analysis weeks ago. Looks like the boko army is getting bolder and more people are joining forces with them . as predicted

The media shaken does not mean they will demoralise their army.

Boko haram hs not captured anywhere,they are just littering around-if u understand how big the terrain is,and the level of corruption in Naija you will know our army is trying.
You dummies should stop granting bokos more power than they have.

It seems you lack good reasoning and heartless or you are leaving in different planet. You guys are careless since it is the north that is affected. I am not supporting my region but I hate merciless killings of innocent lives either Muslims, Christians or whosoever.
