Omen100: Wonders shall never end.

wonders wey don end before you were born in nigeria, everything na repeated version

Seriously? Smh. To think I've been itching to see how the govt and NPF would react. Was half expecting soldiers to storm the place and teach em manners.

Someone steals a governor's phone and is sentenced to 45 years. Now several policemen are murdered like chickens and the killers have been forgiven.

How much is a policeman's life worth in Naija? The N2milion given to the widows or a value less than Aregbesola's N50,000 phone? On second thought, maybe its a ruse, before they hit back hard. But if this is for real, Nigeria is a fuccking dry joke!

They just realized that those people aint humans

Frank-C:
This is not for nairaland kids hidden away somewhere in Ogbomoso or Kaura-namoda who only hear of SSS or see them with what looks like toy guns, but I must say that anybody who have ever had a brush with those boys knows that any operative must be able to do one thing- never forgive. If fact, when SSS guy, especially those with innocent faces smile at you after an encounter, watch out for a big hit.

It is not that SSS does not want to forgive the men that killed their brothers, they are actually incapable of forgiving them. In fact, 50 years from today, they are still avenging their loss. That is SSS for you.

So in your mind Ogbomoso is a jungle inhabited by neanderthals? Why can't you make your point without being controversial?

I dont care if d guvnor or the security forces are at fault. I dont care if Ombaste & their monster of a chief are innocent. I don't really care anybody's account of wat happened or why dis case is stil bein discussed. WHAT I CARE ABOUT IS WHY IS DAT VILLAGE STIL EXISTING ON THE WORLD MAP? WHY HAS IT NOT BEEN REDUCED TO A HEAP OF RUBBLE AND TURNED TO A MUSEUM OR LEISURE PARK? WHY ARE THEY PLAYING POLITICS WIT D LIVES OF MEN WHO MET THEIR TRAGIC END WHILE ON NATIONAL DUTY? This is a big slap on my face, even as a private citizen (I can't imagine commanding a troop or police unit right now and stil stomach all this putrid mess am reading everyday on dis case, not to talk of being d president o). If am an army or police officer and have soldiers/mopols under me, I WULD HAVE DISOBEYED ORDERS FROM THE TOP AND WIPED OFF THAT LAND WITOUT FURTHER NOTICE! U NEED TO STRIKE FEAR IN THESE KINDS OF ANIMALISTIC GROUPS (Ombaste, Maitasine, Boko Haram) and create strong deterrence! If u dont avenge d death of these men, how wil u encourage young nigerians to join d force and die for their fatherland?

Politics! I repeat, politics is the only thing preventing the authorities from acting on this case for now. It has nothing to do with fear. Those boys in the force are very willing to go face those guys any time if given the go, but there is more hidden in the background of it all tht the ever ignorant masses do not know abt.
President Good Luck Jonathan knows this. The National Assembly knows this. The police and SSS authorities know this. Evry body tht matters up there know this. Except the bunch of you (the masses) here tht react only on snippets tht come thru ur blackberries.

Wake up Nigeria!

Another way to say that another raid on Ombatse is ruled out due to their diabolical strength.

Nasarawa Killings: SSS Vows to Fight on

The Director General of the State Security Services (SSS), Mr. Ekpeyong Ita, has vowed that despite the gruesome killings of 10 of his operatives by Ombatse cult group in Eggon, Nasarawa State, the service will not be the first to fly the white flag.

About 100 security operatives including 10 SSS were on May 7, killed in Nasarawa State when they allegedly went to effect the arrest of the leader of a notorious Ombatse cult group accused of forcefully initiating Muslims and Christians into their group.

Ita, who said this at a candle light service held in honour of the 10 SSS operatives killed during the attack, insisted that the service would not deter in fighting any form of crime and criminality in the country.

“We will remain resolute, determined and focused. Therefore for the sake of our colleagues and the survival of our country, we will never raise the white flag. Those who do not wish this country well will be made to face the music. To those who could only kill the body, note that you have made your community an ignoble sepulcher of innocent law enforcement agents and that even though our spirits are cast in iron yet we will not deter in fighting on,” he said.

The SSS DG recalled the incident leading to the onslaught, as he noted that the security operatives embarked on the deadly mission to avert what could become the emergence of another case of Boko Haram or Maitasine.

“I want to recall that exactly 17 days today some 10 dedicated and highly committed officers and men of this family were sent in an operation. The operation was aimed at fulfilling our sacred mandate, that is, the protection and preservation of our nation which is our collective patrimony. They went to keep the peace and douse the tension generated in the state by the activities of an unscrupulous group of primitive people.

“This group had on April 20 at Arugba Isa village in Lafia North, forcefully initiated some members of Izala Muslims. Also, on April 28 some Christians in Gidan Gambo village were forcefully initiated. Similarly on May 2, at Kayarda village an attempt by some of the group members to initiate some Muslims almost led to a violent confrontation. It was in an attempt to arrest the situation from further deteriorating that law enforcement agents were sent.

From experience, this was the same manner Maitasine and the Boko Haram terrorists started,”, he stated.

In an emotion laden voice, the SSS boss lamented the death of the operatives and promised that they will never die in vain.
“We have waited in vain for your return and accordingly, we have come

Forgiven Then this may be true afterall

https://www.nairaland.com/1300045/defence-ombatse-inside-story-nasarawa

What a pity?
I never knew fear dey catch these people like these!
The country has really gone to the dogs and the present president, no matter how you guys spin this, is the worst!

I was thinking the state was among those that SOE was declared, but I was wrong!

What is the president waiting for?

AdoZazzau: I cannot believe what im reading here. A national intelligence gathering agency backs off from confrontation with an ordinary village cult.

There is no country left in Nigeria. Everyone is just hanging on to chop chop oil money. No one is any longer interested in fighting to uphold the integrity of nationhood.

Only a fool talks without thinking. you actually expect him to come on air and say we will kill them, we will hunt them down and blah blah blah blah? intelligent men don't say what we expect them to say, they send smoke screen and by the time it clears out, the dee have been done. the fate of Anini Shina Rambo, Okija shrine and Ogologo of Imo will also befall these wicked fools.

What the sss guy is trying to do is an act of war... Let them believe that they have been forgiven and then later take them unawares...

Ombatse jazz at work. A rational Intelligence Agency will find the killers and bring them to justice. The state is not a religious organization that forgives. Even when the state decides to pardon them, it must first fish them out and establish a case against them.

Lwkm.... Before nko, Ombatse no be MassoB or OPC now!


:forgiving Ombatse is the beginning of life

lacasa: Lwkm.... Before nko, Ombatse no be MassoB or OPC now!


:forgiving Ombatse is the beginning of life

aby oh,life in abundance....Nigeria ti rogo

[b]This is absolutely nonsense! Can a king abdicate his throne because the chief priest has threatening him with death? The statement of the SSS DG has just proven that they are no longer in control and now behaving like a king that has been threatened by a chief priest. Smh! If they are not capable of ensuring the supremacy of power on the state by ensuring no one is above the law, they should simply cease to be called State Security Service and lets allow Omabatse group to do their job, probably name them Ombatse Security Services.
Impunity everywhere and our security services keep on mocking us as a nation with their inactions and nonchalant attitude. That is how Buhari said if he did not win election baboon and dog will bath in blood, and then, there was post election violence that killed many innocent lives were in their prime. Atiku said he will make the country ungovernable if elections didn't turn out the way he wanted, and indeed, we have insecurity everywhere. Asari Dokubo also took same line of impunity the other day stating he will cause insecurity if Jonathan is not re-elected in 2015. What sort of thing is happening in this country?! Impunity here and there and nobody is doing anything about it. These people still walk freely on our streets yet, we claim to have a government and security operatives Why won't the Ombatse group not have such bravery? Why won't the sponsors of the Fulani herdsmen and Boko Haram do what they are doing? [/b]

Mr Ekpeyong Ita should better channel his energy in investigating Al Makura ammd his Fulani merceneries.

Drama abi na movie sef

Mr DG you don't have any right to forgive or not to forgive. Just do your job by bringing those murderous monkeys to book.

lacasa: Lwkm.... Before nko, Ombatse no be MassoB or OPC now!


:forgiving Ombatse is the beginning of life

boron10:
You mean he has done well to retreat? These are supposed to be trained armed men. Are you telling me that the six months or more training they underwent after they were recruited was just to learn how to shoot at the civilians?

I'm not saying its right for them to retreat. What I'm saying is that they don't have options for now!
Even if they undergo six years training and their guns aren't effective against them then they may as well be confronting people armed with machete with bare hands.

I'm still shocked about this whole issue. How do security operatives get massacred by machete wielding men?! Abi na Spartans dem fight?

King Solomon I: The director-general of the Department of State Services, Mr Ita Ekpeyong, during the weekend announced that the Service had forgiven the killers of some police and SSS operatives in Eggon, Nassarawa State.

Over 70 security officials including 10 SSS operatives and police personnel were killed in Eggon community in Nasarawa State when they were going to arrest the leader of a notorious Ombatse cult group accused of forcefully initiating Muslims and Christians into the group.

Ekpeyong made the announcement during a candlelight service held in honour of the 10 SSS operatives killed during the attack. He said that the killers had been handed over to the almighty God for vengeance.

In a swift reaction during the event, the pioneer director-general of the Nigeria Security Organisation NSO, Gen. Abdullahi Mohammed, told the large crowd comprising members of the SSS family, family members of the deceased and well-wishers that the past DGs of the SSS had not forgiven the perpetrators of the dastardly act.

The SSS DG who in his speech during the occasion recalled the incident leading to the onslaught noted that the security operatives embarked on the deadly mission to avert what could become the emergence of another case of Boko Haram or Maitasine.

He said: “I want to recall that exactly 17 days today some 10 dedicated and highly committed officers and men of this family were sent in an operation. The operation was aimed at fulfilling our sacred mandate, that is, the protection and preservation of our nation which is our collective patrimony. They went to keep the peace and douse the tension generated in the state by the activities of an unscrupulous group of primitive people.

“This group had on 20th April ,2013, at Arugba Isa village in Lafia North forcefully initiated some members of Izala Muslims. Also, on 28th April some Christians in Gidan Gambo village were forcefully initiated. Similarly on 2nd May 2013, at Kayarda village, an attempt by some of the group members to initiate some Muslims almost led to a violent confrontation. It was in an attempt to arrest the situation from further deteriorating that law enforcement agents were sent because, from experience, this was the same manner that the Maitasine and the Boko Haram terrorists started.

“We have waited in vain for your return and, accordingly, we have come to terms with the painful reality that you have paid the supreme price so that Nigerians can live in peace and be united. But I want to promise you that you will never die in vain because when you live in the hearts of those you love is not to die. You will never die because your death has emboldened us, inspired and united us. It has motivated and strengthened us.

“We will remain resolute determined and focused. Therefore, for the sake of our colleagues and the survival of our country, we will never raise the white flag. Those who do not wish this country well will. To those who could only kill the body, note that you have made your community an ignoble sepulcher of innocent law enforcement agents and that even though our spirits and will are cast in iron yet we have forgiven you. We have obediently handed all of you over to the almighty God since he taught us that ‘vengeance is mine’.”

The former NSO DG in is reaction pointed out that it was the first time a tragedy of such magnitude was befalling the force and called on Nigerians to rally round the services to secure the nation. He said: “We the past DGs share this sorrow with you. Since the inception of the service I don’t think we have had a tragedy such as this. This is very, very touching and we share your sorrow. I was looking at the TV yesterday and I was looking at a man who led to the death of these gallant men saying that his gods killed the operatives. I wonder why that man is still free and talking. I wonder. I can’t understand it.

“We have heard about some moles in the police, we have heard about some moles in the military but we have never heard about a mole in the service. This is our pride. Some people said they have forgiven the killers of these young men; we have not forgiven them.”

President Goodluck Jonathan, who was represented by his chief of staff Chief Mike Oghiadomhe, said he was grieved by the sad news of the death of the operatives and assured that the government was determined to ensure that this wave of criminality was stamped out of the country.

OK.

They have succumbed to superior forces.

Did he really say that?

What does he mean?

Oahray: Seriously? Smh. To think I've been itching to see how the govt and NPF would react. Was half expecting soldiers to storm the place and teach em manners.

Someone steals a governor's phone and is sentenced to 45 years. Now several policemen are murdered like chickens and the killers have been forgiven.

Clearly understood your viewpoint, however, we are in a democracy, rule of law must be upheld and you cant just go for onslaught because of human rights and the international community, so i quite understand the DGSSS position. It's just that our human rights and civil society groups are also not fair because if the reverse were to be the case, you ve have witnessed serious condemnation against the security agencies.

take his words with a pinch of salt. The ombatse group may experience selective and lone killing of their arrow heads in months to come.

Is this a state pardon? The type given to Alamieyesigha?
