LONDON — A day after an attack
on an off-duty British soldier by
two knife-wielding assailants, Prime
Minister David Cameron said on
Thursday Britain would be
“absolutely resolute” in confronting
terrorism and extremist assaults
would “only bring us together.”
The British leader was speaking
after chairing the emergency Cobra
committee, a group of cabinet
ministers and high-level security
officials that oversees the
operations of police and security
agencies during high security alerts.
The attack raised new fears of
terrorism when the soldier, walking
near a military barracks in south
London, was rammed by a car and
then hacked to death. One of the
men shouted “Allahu akbar,” or “God
is great,” during the attack,
government officials said.
Police officers shot and wounded
both suspected assailants.
One of the apparent suspects is
seen in an image from a video of the
attack.

The British police said on Thursday
that the victim, whose body was
left in a road as one of his
attackers gave an impromtpu
interview to a passer-by, was a
soldier. He was not identified by
name. Police in Lincolnshire, 150
miles north of London, also said
that a house had been searched in
the town of Saxilby.
After the attack, the wounded
suspects were taken to separate
hospitals under police guard, one in
serious condition.
“The people who did this were
trying to divide us,” Mr. Cameron
told reporters outside his office
and official residence at 10 Downing
Street. “They should know
something like this will only bring us
together and make us stronger.”
“This country will be absolutely
resolute in its stand against violent
extremism and terror. We will
never give in to terror or terrorism
in any of its forms,” he said.

“This view is shared by every
community in our country. This was
not just an attack on Britain and on
the British way of life; it was also a
betrayal of Islam and of the Muslim
communities who give so much to
our country.
“There is nothing in Islam that
justifies this truly dreadful act,” he
said, urging Britons to respond to
the attack by going about their
normal lives.
A statement on Thursday from the
Defense Ministry said “a number of
additional security measures have
been put in place” but it did not
provide details.
Mr. Cameron was traveling in Europe
when the attack took place..
“There are strong indications that
it is a terrorist incident,” Mr.
Cameron said. He interrupted his
European tour to return to London
on Wednesday night.
ITV News showed a video taken
with a cellphone at the scene in
Woolwich in which a man who
appeared to be in his 20s or early
30s holds a cleaver in one of his
bloodied hands. He offers what
seems to be a political message
before the police arrive.
“I apologize that women had to see
this today but in our lands women
have to see the same thing,” he
says. “You people will never be safe.
Remove your governments! They
don’t care about you.”
He then refers to what appears to
be a motive for the attack, saying it
was carried out “because of what’s
going on in our own countries.”
Mayor Boris Johnson of London
rejected the argument, saying it
was wrong to link the killing with
British foreign policy or the actions
of Britain’s military, which has been
closely allied with the United
States in Afghanistan and Iraq.
“The fault lies wholly and
exclusively in the warped and
deluded mindset of the people who
did it,” he said.
The BBC reported Wednesday night
that British security officials had
identified at least one of the two
suspects as having family origins in
Nigeria. British media reports on
Thursday said the men were not
apparently linked to the Boko
Haram militants in Nigeria, who are
believed to have ties to Al Qaeda.
Organizations representing Britain’s
2.5 million Muslims were quick to
condemn the attack. “No cause
justifies this murder,” the Muslim
Council of Britain said in a
statement
on behalf of the network of
mosques, schools and charities it
represents. It described the killing
in Woolwich as “a barbaric act that
has no basis in Islam,” and added
that the “vast majority of British
Muslims acknowledge the armed
forces for the work they do.”
The assault took place near a busy
junction a short walk from the
London headquarters of the Royal
Artillery, a unit that has deployed
soldiers, including tank units, to
Iraq and Afghanistan. A primary
school is nearby and witnesses said
some of those who had seen the
attack were parents and children
returning home.
A small blue car — apparently the
vehicle used to ram the victim —
appeared to have hit a telephone
pole after mounting the sidewalk.
Photographs and television footage
from the scene showed extensive
damage to the car’s hood and
windshield.

Guys we are now enjoying in maiduguri peace is coming back but d probe is that its only garriii thatt people can get in open market A tin of garri is now 90naira

Which kind thing be that?every thing is business to them mmaybe 1 olodo or nigerian will be the dump person to buy it

He still behave like a Nigerian his mentality s just like an average person.

D’banj‘s quest for dominance in
the Nigerian music scene won’t
stop now; he might have lost out
on signing Olamide and Davido –
but he has nicked another
artiste, this time a familiar
friend-foe.
The self-proclaimed ‘African
Michael Jacskon‘, we’ve learnt has
signed his friend-turned-foe-
turned-friend Oluwadamilare
Okulaja better known to the
public as Durella.
The move might however not come
as a surprise to everyone,
considering that Banger Lee
(that’s D’banj’s new nickname by
the way) and the ‘King of the
Zanga’ Durella recently settled
their differences. Some weeks
back, D’banj and his DB Records
crew released a single ‘Ibadi e‘ off
their compilation album ( D’ King’s
Men) which featured a verse from
Durella.
Fans were very excited to see the
pair had reunited after a very long
and well publicized fall out
between the pop acts.
FLASHBACK
The beef between Durella and
D’banj started in late 2006 when
the latter accused Banger Lee of
jacking his style of singing.
Apparently when D’banj and Don
Jazzy returned to Nigeria in
2004, they met up with Durella
and soon became friends. Sources
tell us that D’banj and Durella
were quite close and were spotted
together in the studio several
times.
‘I remember when Durella
followed D’banj, Don Jazzy to
Jahborne’s music factory studio
when D’banj wanted to record
‘Tongolo’ remix’, a source recounts.
Of course D’banj had blown up and
had released his second album
‘Rundown’ in 2007 when Durella
signed with TC Records and finally
launched his career. It didn’t take
long for Durella to blow up too
with hits like ‘In da Zanga’,
‘Wiskolowiska’ and ‘Shayo’ gaining
massive appeal. He also won the
MTV and Zain ‘Advance Warning’
reality show in 2008.
Then came the interviews; Durella
clearly stated that D’banj had
stolen his style. The media of
course jumped on it, comparing
both artistes. Truthfully, they did
sound very similar. And it seemed
like D’banj was aware as he
switched up the flow on the 2008
Nigerian Pop classic album ‘ The
Entertainer’. Their fight sort of
fizzled out though as Durella later
backed off. ‘D’banj is my man,
aaah, I like his mo gbono feli feli
jam’, Durella told Onome ‘ BigTyme’
Oyaide in an interview on urban
radio station Rhythm FM 93.7 in
late 2008.
BACK TO THE MATTER
We are told that D’banj and DB
Records bought out Durella’s
contract from his present record
label IKONIC Music where the
Pop act’s career has been in limbo
since he signed in mid-2011 after
ending his three-year contract
with TC Records. His upcoming
album ‘ Back/Better/Bada’ has
been pushed back one too many
times
‘Durella has signed with D’banj, he
(D’banj) bought out the contract,
that’s what I can tell you’, a
source in Durella’s camp tells us.
A rep for D’banj refused to
respond to enquiries after asking
us to send text messages to her
mobile phone.

Nigerian Army Commences War In
Borno Forest Against Boko Haram,
Curfew Imposed
The Nigerian Army yesterday
formally commenced air and ground
hostilities against Boko Haram under
emergency regulations in thick
forests in Sambisa, Borno State in an
area the sect was reported to have
used as a recruiting and training
base.
A senior military officer source said
that under conditions of anonymity
that the soldiers attacked the area
and dislodged the sect members who
fled the heavy military onslaught.
The source said that there is yet to
be any serious offensive mounted by
the sect, stressing that the Nigerian
Army is backed by the Nigerian Air
Force who are part of the
operations.
The source also told us that soldiers
are hunting down members of the
Boko Haram sect in all their
identified bases in Gashua, Yobe
state. Banks and other public and
government businesses have been
instructed to suspend their
operations.
Meanwhile, a 6pm to 6am curfew has
been imposed on Yola, Adamawa
State, starting today, as part of the
crackdown against Boko horam. I was there my self

Disadvantage of been a ceeleb

That's y nairaland is ahead and also called a forum

Explosion and sporadic gunshots rocked
the quiet town of Daura, Katsina state,
home town of opposition leader,
Muhammadu Buhari Thursday night.
The attack started about 10 p.m. and
was still ongoing one hour later.
Witnesses say the attackers brought
down a police station and robbed banks
and homes.
It is unclear if the attackers are
members of the extremist Boko Haram
sect that has been terrorizing northern
Nigeria since 2009.
The attack comes barely 48 hours after
President Goodluck Jonathan declared a
state of emergency in three northern
states — Borno, Yobe and Adamawa.
Katsina, also home to late Umaru Musa
Yar’Adua, under whose watch the Boko
Haram sect transformed to a terror
organization, has managed to remain
insulated from the security crises in
northern Nigeria.

The police in Katsina were unreadable
for comments Thursday night.[img]buhari_861017887-465x325.jpg[/img]

Its high time we occupy Nigerian streets again aswear

There was this robbery in nigeria, the
robbers shouted to everyone: "All of you don't
move, money belongs to the state, but life
belongs to you". Everyone in the bank laid down quietly. This is called "Mind Changing Concept -->
Changing the conventional way of
thinking".
---------------------------------------One lady
lay on the table provocatively, the robber
shouted at her "Please be civilized! This is a robbery and not a rape!" This is called "Being Professional --> Focus
only on what you are trained to do!"
---------------------------------------When the
robbers got back, the younger robber (MBA
trained) told the older robber (who is only
primary school educated), "Big bro, let's count how much we got", the older robber
rebutted and said, "You are very stupid, so
much money, how are we going to count, tonight Amshi tv will
tell us how much we robbed from the
bank!" This is called "Experience --> nowadays
experience is more important than paper
qualifications!"
---------------------------------------
After the robbers left, the bank manager
told the bank supervisor to call the police quickly. The supervisor says "Wait, wait
wait, let's put the 5 million naira we
embezzled into the amount the robbers
robbed". This is called "Swim with the tide -->
converting an unfavorable situation to your
advantage!"
---------------------------------------
The supervisor says "It will be good if there
is a robbery every month". This is called "Killing Boredom -->
Happiness is most important."
---------------------------------------
The next day,Amshi TV news reported that 100
million naira was taken from the bank. The
robbers counted and counted and counted, but they could only count 20 million naira
The robbers were very angry and
complained "We risked our lives and only
took 20 million naira, the bank manager
took 80 million naira with a snap of his
fingers. It looks like it is better to be educated than to be a thief!" This is called "Knowledge is worth as much
as gold !"

One of my staff
went missing for a few hours and I finally
found him fast asleep in the store.
Rather than waking him up, I quietly
placed a note on the man's chest which
read: "As long as you're asleep, your job is
secured.
But as soon as you are awake,you're
fired,"
signed MD.
Now my question: "Should this
man wake up or continue sleeping"

No be ssmall thing. Woo
