FG To Deploy Troops To Bakassi Amid Killing Of Nigerians by Capnd143(m): 3:15pm On Apr 10, 2013

FG PLAN MILITARY BASES IN BAKASSI; ARMY FOB PLANNED FOR IKANG, NAVAL FOB TO BE SET UP ON DAYSPRING 1

DAILY PUNCH

There are indications that the Federal Government has concluded arrangements to set up two forward operational bases (FOB) in Bakassi Local Government Area of Cross River State to check cases of alleged incessant killings, maiming and destruction of properties of Nigerians by the Cameroonian gendarmes.
Commander of the 13 Brigade of the Nigerian Army in Calabar, Brig.-Gen. Okwudili Azinta,who gave the indication on Tuesday when he paid a courtesy visit to the state secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, said the two operational bases would be located in Dayspring 1 and Ikang. No fewer than five Bakassi natives, who resisted forcible eviction from Efut Obot Ikot, a settlement in the ceded peninsula, were allegedly brutally massacred on March 7 by Cameroonian military authorities, while 1, 800 displaced persons are currently being camped at Akwa Ikot Edem Primary School in Akpabuyo LGA. Azinta, however, said from indications,the Navy would establish their base at Dayspring 1 while the Army would have theirs at Ikang.
The Commander said the establishment of these bases would enable the armed forces to have easy and quick access to Nigerians still living in areas close to Cameroon and also deter foreign troops from terrorising them.

Now this is what happens when nigeria decides to play good boy and leave bakassi because of UN VERDICT! The camerounians are brutally killing nigerians but Armnesty international, aljazeera, bbc and presstv have not seen, when nigerian aboki troops start behaving like true abokis the will start shouting all over the place.
