On May 19, 2011 · In Headlines ,
A gang of suspected Islamists raided a police station in north-eastern Nigeria and were locked in an hour-long gun battle with police overnight, a regional police chief said on Thursday.

“A large number of gunmen, believed to be members of Boko Haram attacked a police station in [Maidugiuri],” police commissioner for Borno state, Mohamed Jinjiri Abubakar said.

“A gun battle lasted about one hour between the gunmen and the police attached to the station,” the police chief told AFP by phone from Maiduguri.

Details of casualties were not immediately available.

In a separate attack, a police officer was ambushed and killed on Wednesday while on his way home. Two civilians caught in crossfire, also died, he said.

“A policeman was shot and killed by gunmen still believed to be members of Boko Haram while riding home and two other civilians around were killed, including a woman who was frying akara [bean fritters] by the roadside,” said Abubakar.

Police have blamed the Islamist sect for series of bomb attacks and also shootings especially in Borno’s capital Maiduguri in recent months.[img][/img]

Your formula is faulty add CPC to the L.H.S. of the equation and you will be fine.

I dont think i am far off the mark. In other to understand the emergence of both groups in what we call Nigeria you need to appreciate the circumstances that created them. Illiteracy and poverty tends to cut across moth militia groups. The other factors ie religious fanatism, politics and sense of injustice only sparked off the violence and revolution that has gone out of control today.
you are the one that needs to change your block headed attitude. rather than criticizing every posts, try and engage in sensible debates.

This may be of help

Boko Haram (literally, "Western or non-Islamic education is a sin"wink is a controversial Nigerian militant Islamist group that seeks the imposition of Shariah law in the northern states of Nigeria.[2]

It become known internationally following sectarian violence in Nigeria in 2009.

EtymologyThe term "Boko Haram" comes from the Hausa word boko meaning "Western or non-Islamic education" and the Arabic word haram meaning "sin."[3][4][5][6]

[edit] IdeologyBoko Haram opposes not only Western education, but Western culture and modern science as well.[7] In a 2009 BBC interview, Yusuf stated that the belief that the world is a sphere is contrary to Islam and should be rejected, along with Darwinism and the theory that rain comes from water evaporated by the sun.[3]

I swear the prediction that Nigeria will turn into another Pakistan is becoming a reality. Jonathan needs to nip this extremism in the bud real quick. These extremists have read Jonathan and are testing him. I'm afraid of what might happen if Jonathan fails this test. Even Southern Nigeria will have a taste of this violence.
