@ op u can delete my post the way u did my previous one, hope they pay u well sha. I don't support or sympathize with boko haram's cause but I think the easiest way to lose a battle is to underestimate your opponent ask the Japanese empire about that. The nigerian military can defeat boko Haram wif ease but our government have to really recognise their threat and don't downplay it, when takeover is used it means the previous controlling power has been outpowered u can read on the situation in Iraq for a little enlightenment. I want Nigeria to win this war before it comes to our doorstep. And all the lies that bama is being bombed by the military should stop, as opposed to when Nigeria was at war with biafra Nigeria is at war against boko haram who don't have a place to their name so bombing bama would be against civil rights because it is a civilian zone. I am not a war comander but I believe the easiest way to end this war is to get their sponsors people which the sss should have information about and watch d boko haram fighters lose morale and with little effort the nma would defeat them. If our president should focus half of the energy he spends on polishing his image for 2015 we wud defeat boko haram and nigerians would vote for him because then he would have shown that he is a powerful president. God bless Nigeria |

I have said before and I will reiterate some... 1-BH may be using propaganda to fight their cause-Media outlets would be doing their best to report factually or to make their money-Govt agents would be doing their bid to quell the seeming tensions(which is proper)-I and U will be spending our money to either support or oppose BH actions, Give kudos/hatred to media outlets, Curse or Be Sympathetic to Govt, and lastly Call ourselves names on social media. 2-I and U may be right or wrong in our stands, wrt govt inactions/slow actions towards doing the right thing at the right time...and as such feel, if BH succeeds, a government maybe toppled and then peace might return later(brotherly and sisterly - ask those that experienced the Civil War how it was OR watchout the actions of ISIS or on a lighter note;fight in eastern Ukraine) Please friends, let's not support BH in anyway, in as much as we continue to demand that the right actions should be taken by our "Leaders", let's rather pray for PEACE in NIGERIA and NOT to be sympathetic to the causes of BH. 1 Like |

People in the area told your mom how much of an idioot she was bringing up but she won't listen as she knew no other way since she also was poorly brought up. I now regret not loaning your mom the money she needed to abort your pregnancy then. You are now disgracing not only yourself but as well as your family and the greater danger is the kids that will come through you. Only GOD knows when your generation of w*nkers will finally be wiped out. My heart bleeds for your kind. What a shame kid. |

An information from Maimalari Barracks said that BOKO HARAM has drop leaflets Threatening to attack MAIDUGURI and presently The families and other civilain members of the both Maimalari and Giwa Barracks are being evacuated/relocating. The shehu of Borno calls for three days fasting and prayers. We need to let the suffering people of Borno state know that we feel their pain and praying for them.

Afroconnect: Maybe it was your sycophancy that made NA so confident that they were recently ambushed. How and why should the army not know the strength of those they fight. If the army knows the real truth, why should the army front liners feel any different if they hear fake news. You sit there in the comfort of your zone and type misleading BS with no reliable source. The big military boss calls Boko Haram a rag tag army but those doing the real fighting know better. This is beyond giving false hopes. If you have so much confidence in your source, why don't you go to those towns and post pictures of you walking around freely. |

darqly: Op, when people like you make such remarks and assertions, one is tempted to ask you the following-What the Op meant is that let the Truth be reported regarding every development and situation about Boko Haram and the fight against terrorism. Nothing more. Nothing less. Just the truth. A situation where half truths mixed with exaggerated lies are constantly reported only helps to boost Boko terrorist violence morale. Moreover, this lies could also be a deliberate ploy to set Nigerians against the Federal Government. Imagine a situation where you are in your house relaxing alone in the living room, then all of a sudden two thieves broke down your door on a mission to steal your properties. As soon as the thieves entered you hurriedly rush down to hold them up and stop them from gaining access into the house. Then you call for help, probably your family members. On hearing your cries they hurriedly came over to scene and together, you successfully drove the thieves out of your house. In the above example, the right thing for a true professional journalist to report is: Thieves tried to gain access into Mr A house but were stopped by Mr A gallantly together with his family members. Don't you agree? How will you feel if the report was like this: Thieves had over ran and taken over Mr A's house? Do you think the latter reports the true situation the event? 2 Likes |

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.It's a shame there is no journalist brave enough and equipped well enough tech-wise to actually embed with the army to get firsthand reports. Lack of photos and non biased reporting the public can trust gives rise to distrust. Outside media picks up SR stories and runs with them, painting the worst face worldwide. You don't know who to trust as NO ONE inside Nigeria is actually doing a consistent job. Journalists need to step it up and whoever is brave enough to do it might just make a name and reputation... |

Babalegba: idiotic posts normally irritates me but I will give yours benefit of the doubt for the moment. Kindly explain to us doubter on this forum why a set of people will go about destroying their own community, killing their own people just to gain political control. Is it by coincidence that ISIS are fighting in Syria and Iraq to carve out an Islamic caliphate as well. GEJ should have at least got people with a bit of grey matter to defend his inane paralytic kleptomaniac clueless government rather than asking grey matter starved mischievous clowns to to clog the social networks. idiotic comments also irritates me. Unfortunately I can't help you. Go and ask Shekau why UN building, NPF HQ , Abuja mall Madala Church etc was bombed. if you can get the answer you wouldn't worry about ISIS. Since you have a brain, tell me why the places I mentioned were bombed...Forming a Caliphate indeed. Sorry the Politics of Book haram is beyond your capacity. just because the fight has taken a different dimension you choose to be ignorant of the past. nonsense. |

Just now there are reports that a group of terrorists are attacking some parts of Michika LG but Boko Haram media wing SAHARA REPORTERS has already started telling the world that Boko Haram has taken over Michika LG.

I still don't know why somebody will sit in the comfort of his room and tell us Boko Haramism is a political propaganda. That might be your point of view on the issue, but u shouldn't force anybody to buy it. You call it a Political propaganda, and it has been in existence for 5 solid years(imagine d pix of a 5yr old child). U call it a propaganda and we're fighting it, abi? what is d definition of PROPAGANDA self? I think we're mixing somethings up. A perfect example of a political propaganda is what APC did in Osun state, claiming their Agents nd party leaders have been arrested just to get the masses behind them. That happened and fadded away within a week. B.H's case is not in any way related to that. This has gone physical and visible,are you telling me there is no church burnt off during d 2009 new year eve? The number of churches and mosques burnt is up to three digits if not more, the girls kidnapped? Is dat also a propaganda? If it is, why is the goverment trying to pay the parents? Its high time we forgot our political, tribal and religious differences and face the truth, which is B.H. We should use our wit in finding solution to the problem rather than put the blame on others.

Truckpusher: It only sells to peeps that refused in applying common sense in everything they hear. Exactly my point: some people forget common sense when and if the media says/writes it. They never bother to know if verity backs it up. It's disheartening. This fight against Boko H. - just like the fight against Ebola - transcends just physicality. It goes deep into the psychology and when the psychology of part of the populace is being messed with to an extent, it's defeat knocking on the door, or serious danger. |

OP, you need to wake up and stop deceiving yourself. The issue of Boko Haram in this country has gone beyond living denial. Living in denial won't help us, in fact, it was living in denial that had made the issue of Boko Haram to get out of hands. You are accusing the media for using the words "take over" recently? Were they not the ones using the word "attacks" in the past? Attacks is attacks, take over is take over. Just tell your government to wake up to her responsibility of securing lives and properties of the Nigeria citizens. Propaganda and name callings can't solve the problem. |

darqly: What do you mean by "if the President will act like a president for once" it's absolutely disgusting to read this from you. the President has deployed the military declared a SOE. Yet your likes saw nothing good about it. Surreptitiously giving the enemies leverage by condemning govt actions, openly berating the military, over exaggerating activities of the sect, print and electronic media taking sides, crucifying objectivity in reportage because of political sentiments or dislike of the person of the president. The president has done what he has to do. the military should be allowed to do their jobs. We should encourage them and make them realize that they must not fail in this fight and not politicize their actions. we should be sensitive to military saboteurs and Boko haram moles in the military and urge the military ti fish them out. we must be supportive. The president means well for the country and he is doing what he can. we must not pull him down. He may have to compromise a lot. sometimes let his enemies have their way; that is the dynamics of such position. it's never a liner equation. If you have been in a leadership position at trying times you'll understand. my footnote is from the movie 24. do you know when and the circumstance the president in that movie made the statement watch it again and find out for yourself. ..... the whole of America saw him as weak and silly. but ultimately he was right. hence he made the statement. |
