Boko Haram: Nysc Bars Corpers From Borno, Yobe

The orientation course for Batch ‘C’ of the National Youth Service Corps in Borno and Yobe states has been put off indefinitely in order to protect corps members from Boko Haram attacks.

The NYSC  in a statement on Wednesday announced the indefinite suspension and asked corps members already posted to the two states harried by members of the violent Islamic sect last Friday to remain in their homes to await further directive.

The statement, a copy of which was made available to THE PUNCH on Wednesday, reads, “Owing to security reasons, (the) orientation course WILL NOT hold in Borno and Yobe states until further notice.

“Prospective corps members posted there should await further directives.

“All serving and new corps members are STRONGLY advised to strictly adhere to the contents of the security tips distributed to them.”

According to the statement, registration for new corps members begins on Tuesday, November 15, 2011, the cut -off date for Registration is 12 midnight Wednesday November 16, 2011 while the official closing ceremony is Tuesday December 6, 2011.

Boko Haram, Friday night, bombed drinking joints, churches, mosques and police stations in both Maiduguri and Damaturu, capitals of Borno and Yobe respectively, killing about 150 people.

Meanwhile the Federal Government on Wednesday said it was on top of the security situation in the country.

Minister of Information, Mr. Labaran Maku, at the end of the weekly Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja, told journalists that the government had in fact recorded many “silent victories” in the fight against the scourge of the militant Islamic group.

He, however, admitted that the operations of the sect posed a lot of challenges to security agencies.

He said, “All I can tell you for now are that Federal Government is working round the clock to check the activities of Boko Haram and the results will soon begin to show.

“All of us know that wherever terror raises its ugly head it is not a conventional war, where the military of Nigeria will go one side and the terrorists group on the other side for a confrontation.

“Terrorists use undercover attacks, what you call guerrilla welfare.

“They do not operate under the light of self- proclamation of who their identities are. There are several countries like Algeria and Pakistan and several others that have come under terror attack for almost over a decade and in those countries up till today, you still have isolated attacks in spite of all the deployments that have taken place.

“Let me give an example, all those who carried out the terrorist attack of October 1, 2010 have been arrested, all the vehicles they used, all the channels they used, all the individuals associated with it are in the custody of security agencies and are being investigated.

“You will also find out that in many places where similar attacks have taken place earlier, arrests have not been made even in countries that you can say have greater sophistication in terms of technical capacity.”

Meanwhile, soldiers have taken over security in and around the Abuja NYSC Camp in Kubwa ahead of the commencement of the Batch “C” orientation camp for corps members.

Vehicles going into and coming out of the camp are thoroughly searched for weapons and other contraband.

Although none of the soldiers was willing to speak on the deployment, a source in the NYSC confided in our correspondent that the measure was pre-emptive.

The source pleaded for anonymity because he was not authorised to speak to the media on security issues.

He said, “You know the situation in the country; management cannot leave anything to chance.

“The safety of our corps members is of utmost importance to us, especially in the light of the avoidable loss of innocent lives during the post- election crisis in the north.”

In recent past, quite a number of serving corps members had been killed in sectarian attacks in Jos, Plateau State, and during the post-2011 general elections violence in some parts of the northern region.

But NYSC has continued to post corps members to volatile areas of the north despite calls by concerned Nigerians, especially parents, that the areas are not safe for the young graduates.

GOVERNOR Theodore Orji of Abia State, Wednesday, emphatically said that the issue of disengaged non-indigenes from the state’s workforce would stay, indicating that the Government may not revisit the issue.Speaking in an interview with journalists at the Government House, Umuahia on his return from a month-long vacation, Governor Orji said that there was no going back on the policy.“It is now history. We should be moving forward. We are moving forward. We can not be moving backward. I don’t want us to be talking much about that. It is a policy of government”.

Orji disclosed that he used his vacation to meet with investors, especially Abia indigenes in the United States, and explained that one of them would be coming to build a Dialysis Centre. He further disclosed that he made contacts with investors in the oil and gas industry.

And who said anyone would kick out Igbos? If an Igbo man has a business in the SW that is generating revenue and thus paying taxes, he presumably will sell it to someone else, no? The new owner will still have a profit incentive (since he paid hard cash for the business) and will try to make as much as he can from it. This still contributing to IGR.

This is obviously different from a Zimbabwe-style landgrab, a pogrom, or what Idi Amin did.

In general, if you want to make an analogy, perhaps best to ensure that the things you are comparing are comparable. . .
ok what is the population of successful business Yoruba's in Lagos compare to igbos business is not for everybody u no cool

ak47, I don't care if Igbos in Lagos or aliens from Mars in Lagos produce this IGR.

The point is, having invested money into making money (building shops, etc), they won't just let said shops die. They'll sell it off and it will still continue to produce tax revenue even after changing hands (granted, things are a bit more subtle than this. But this captures the aggregate effect.)
look bro u talk like a typical Africans like idi amin that kick Indians out and told Ugandans to help themselves less than one year Ugandan economy became a laughing stock in the world.
business is not about opening shop if you studied economy

that is why English people called idi amin a global embarrassment cool cool

@ak47mann

I personally know some of the biggest boys in Lagos. They are from Nnewi you know.
They own some for the best real estates and they pay taxes a lot.
One, a lawyer, who owns a huge house at VGC told me how he once scared away some of the LEACHING tax men in Lagos.
They've since stopped bugging him.

Anambra does not bug people for tax that way.
i know what you mean nnewi always run things for them na today from ikemba papa which used to own the tallest building in Lagos.

@ak47: How?

IGR won't decrease just like that, unless you suggest they'll destroy their own shops, etc before they leave (rather than selling.)

Mind-boggling to me that a zone that has less IGR than NC or NW will call Lagos of all places Gambia.

igbos in Lagos produces more IGR than your entire zone combined  grin grin grin

At the end of the day, none of this "if", "would", "but", etc matters. All that matters is what comes in and what comes out.
but they cant do that cos none of their state produce a single drop of oil so i have right to call them parasite cool

And BTW your IGR is our boys paying you! If they go home, you would drop to 5% of whatever you generate in IGR now. lmao. cool

I've wasted too much time on this thread.

So let's cut a long story short.

Without Rivers State joining you, the SE is in just as bad a spot financially as the North. I am sure that if we look at the #s for Delta, almost none of the IGR comes from Delta North. So that won't be of any help either.

Akwa Ibom is not going to give you any money either.
we never ask for their money after all we get our own, compare how many calabar people living in the east to us, is very small by the way people doesn't go to akwa ibom 4 business tanapa for example is a failure,

look no matter how u look at it imo and abia supply thousand of crude every day it might not be as big as delta state but SE zone is not the poorest compare to statistics SW which claims we got nothing like them, which is a big lie anambra got 36 trillion gas and billions of barrel of oil untapped  which state in SW got up-to 1 trillion gas reserve am waiting.

Don't we hear the same story all the time from Borno, Kano, etc?

I may need to double-check my math, but all of the SE combined produces less oil than Ondo State.
how much oil does ondo state produce? cos most of the oil they claim is from offshore

as i said b4 lagos is not among cos federal govt investment if not it will end up like ekiti now how much oil ondo state claims they produce?

Abeg, let us hear this gas story once you are actually making money from it. This thread is not for tales by moonlight.

Anyway, gas isn't that as profitable as oil. And I don't remember the reserves being that huge.

SE doesn't produce much oil. Looks like most of Nigeria's oil production is from Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Delta, Bayelsa. None of which are in the SE. . .
