"Federal government will not release the names of those who ferried the $9.3 million to SA". With the speculation that Asari Dokubo was on the flight and the fact that Orestejefors's jet was used to haul the money confirms the great conspiracy of supplying BH with arms to destroy some parts of Nigeria and it's people. These plans dated back from Henry Okah's bombing at the Eagle square in 2011. 1 Like |

Nigeria and South Africa have no relationship. See it as a relationship gone sour, you breakup and both parties move on. The amount of time and energy invested in South africa is not worth it. |

i don't see anything diplomatic here. two countries are involved yes but one went against the laws of another. Independent countries make their own laws and defend their own territories. if nigeria is lawless and ppl can carry millions around, south africa is saying is against their laws. if you are a president, your powers are limited to ur country and not making any efforts to rule over another. Zuma cannot sole-handedly release those funds to nigeria - never. Zuma must consult with his cabinet and the house has the final say. the problem with nigeria and nigerians is, we think because we run a one man govt here, that is how it is all over the world. i think this pdp led govt is suffering from shame as a result of south africa's exposure of their illegalities. nigeria will soon calm down when they are tired of making noise. we have no friends because nobody trusts this govt. you keep lying to the whole world and u take them for fools. 2 Likes |

May God henceforth continue to touch and straighten Obasanjo's brain to only play these roles. The man was and is highly favoured by God. Infact he would been regarded as Gold by not only Nigerians but also the world over. There are Nigerians who would want Nigeria to become great through citizens like Obasanjo, Soyinka and other senior individuals. The other days both pdp and apc ran to him for inputs for better system in the country. Am happy over that but he will never agree to play those roles. Maybe by the next hour, he will change and put on the wears of tugs. Please if you are close to him, tell him Nigerians want him to become most popular across the world. Let him from now on play the great roles in moving the country forward. |

An Army Colonel, some junior officers and soldiers reportedly helped members of the dreaded terrorist group, Boko Haram in the North eastern part of the country. According to Vanguard, the shocking revelation which was made at the weekend occurred as the military personnel were involved in the offensive to reclaim communities taken over by the Boko Haram terrorists in Adamawa Nigerian soldiers fighting Boko Haram in the Northern part of the country A high ranking military personnel who did not want to be named said, the colonel who is a Muslim was Commanding a team of three Armoured Personnel Carriers, APC’s, with the capability of firing up to a range of 1.5kilometres or more, deliberately set the APCs on fire between Gulak and Madagali, and ran into the bush with his team instead of firing at the advancing terrorists. It was gathered that the Army authorities were angered by the report and ordered the arrest of the commander, the junior officers as well as the soldiers under his command. A source that was aware of the development revealed that before the embarrassing incident occurred, the Special Forces of the Nigerian Army who commenced the putsch to rout Boko Haram terrorists from Bazza, Michika, Gulak and Madagali from Vimtim, had successfully dealt with the sect, and inflicted heavy casualties on the terrorists up till Gulak He said between Gulak and Madagali, the Colonel who had all along been prided with air surveillance reports, was again informed that Boko Haram terrorists were approaching his team in six Toyota Hilux Pick Up vans from the Madagali axis of the state. “However, rather than blasting and taking out the terrorists in their pick-up vans; he ordered his soldiers to jump out of the APC’s and set the armoured tanks on fire, without realising that he was being monitored. This was shocking because the terrorists were armed with weaponry which were grossly inferior to the firepower of the Nigerian Army Amoured tanks. After accomplishing the sabotage act, the Colonel and the junior officers and soldiers ran away into the bush, claiming that they were overpowered by a better armed group of Boko Haram terrorists,” the source said. The source further disclosed that the action of the Colonel and soldiers under his command ascertained the believes by the top hierarchy of the military that there were so many fifth columnists in the army working against the country’s determination to wipe out Boko Haram terrorists from Nigeria. However, a Board of Inquiry, BoI, had been set up by the Army authorities to investigate the Colonel and his soldiers after which a Military Court Martial would be set up to try them for conspiracy, treason and willful sabotage among others. Reacting to the development, a senior officer said: “You can now see why the Military Court Martial which is currently sitting is inevitable. The uninformed would feel that soldiers who are fighting the nation’s battle are being unjustly punished. But the truth is that many of them are sabotaging Nigeria and making the insurgents look formidable for reasons that cannot be explained. Some of them appear sympathetic to the insurgents. How can it be explained that several APCs that cost up to $1million each in some cases or more will be willfully destroyed by Commissioned Officers, COs, who swore to defend the territorial integrity of their nation, just to help terrorists? That is treason of the highest order.” The source hinted that the new strength and determination with which Nigerian soldiers had been fighting Boko Haram, resulting in the killing of several commanders of the sect as well as hundreds of their foot soldiers, was bore out of the resolve of the Nigerian army high command to sanction any soldier pursuing a different course aside that of the Federal Government. It would be recalled that Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh, the Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, had last week cleared the air that the death penalty passed on 12 Nigerian soldiers by a military tribunal was lawful and in accordance with military dictates. The CDS made this known while speaking at a three-day conference organised by the National Security Adviser in collaboration with Trim Communication Nigeria Ltd on Media/ Securit. “The day you join the military you have signed off whether life or death, and it is obey before complaint. How can a soldier just jump out of the APC because you want to donate APC to Boko Haram; and somebody is there talking about constructive mutiny. The laws are there, if you run away from the enemy, you will die and that is what the military law says. Apart from the old Nigerian law, we abide by the military law. Nobody forces or conscripts anybody into the military. It is a voluntary service, and so if we have this type of challenge, you should be able to confront it and not to run away,” Badeh said. It would be recalled that on October 9, the European Union (EU) condemned the death sentence handed 12 Nigerian soldiers by a military tribunal over charges of mutiny . The international body seems not to be the only group against the sentence as some other concerned Nigerians have also reacted to the development . The Nigerian Army on October 3, 2014, set up a General Court Martial to try another 97 personnel for various offences .. committed in the ongoing counter-terrorism operation in the North-Eastern part of the country.
