. Amen. But Nigerian Armed Forces should beware of December. All patriotic Nigerians in Abuja, Kano, Kaduna, Maidugiri, Jos and Lagos should be vigilant 24/7. This morning, I overheard some Hausa Okada motor cyclists in Lagos whispering about Boko Haram and Kano.

Have you noticed the proliferation of commercial okada riders of northern origin in Lagos and neighbouring states? Fact is, if the terrorists choose to set off explosions and suicide bombings around these places, there's very little impediment.
What they have to decide is, if such a move would be beneficial to their cause or not. As it is, most parts of the country are vulnerable to attacks.

This will make some people happy

Make them carry award na, nonsense

This report is scary.
