Politics › Boko Haram Strengthens Ties With Islamic State Group by atlwireles(op): 12:50am On Aug 23, 2015 |
LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) — Nigeria's Boko Haram extremists are strengthening ties with the Islamic State group, as shown by reports that Nigerian militants are fighting in Libya, recent arrests in Lebanon and India and the blocking of thousands of suspected extremists from leaving Nigeria. Boko Haram pledged allegiance to IS in March and in June was declared its West African province. More than 1,000 people have been killed in the insurgency since President Muhammad Buhari was elected in March and pledged to halt the 6-year-old Islamic uprising blamed for the deaths of some 20,000. An estimated 80 to 200 Boko Haram fighters are in the Libyan city of Sirte, according to Nigeria analyst Jacob Zenn, in The Sentinel magazine of the Washington-based Jamestown Foundation. Algerian security forces believe Boko Haram fighters have joined other militants in northern Niger, he wrote. "The openness of migration routes from Nigeria through eastern Niger to Libya makes travel ... fairly straightforward, and the Islamic State can easily afford to pay smugglers to carry militants (and weapons) along that route," wrote Zenn. Further evidence of Boko Haram's links with IS is the arrest on Aug. 15 by Lebanese authorities of hard-line IS cleric Ahmad al-Assir at Beirut airport. They said he planned to fly to Nigeria on a forged Palestinian passport with a Nigerian visa. The Nigeria Immigration Service reported barring 23,472 people from leaving the country between January 2014 and March 2015. "There have been reports in recent times of some Nigerians departing to join terrorist groups especially in the Middle East and North Africa," said PR Nigeria, which publishes government news. Two Nigerians studying in India were arrested Aug. 7 as they tried to cross illegally into Pakistan, planning to join IS in Iraq, it said. http://news.yahoo.com/boko-haram-strengthens-ties-islamic-state-group |

Even African countries are finding their feet yet you guys continue to indulge in Jonathanian idiocy of self appraising and congratulating yourselves for cluelessness.

[s] Adminisher: You people are extremely dumb. VERY DUMB STUPID NIGERIANS. Children of Goodluck Jonathan.
Saudi Arabia as we speak is building 24 Petrochemical plants in one site at the same time and they are also planning a second mega project even larger. They have massive projects ongoing in power, refineries, fertilisers that would make China jealous. All the GCC countries have massive capital projects ongoing that Nigerians ser from the air when they travel to Dubai or Qatar. All the plastic parts going into motor vehicles, the Saudis have 70% of that market. They are also spending massively on defence and ate trying to counter Iran whilst thinking of the next generation by diversifying into petrochemicals. Why I am angry with this thread is not the mis- information of the drop to $67 billion which is clearly false but that people have not asked Goodluck what he did with Nigeria's own income when oil was $110 a barrel. Every Nigerian is a fool if you think you are better than Saudi Arabia. [/s] Punk, stay on your lane. I don't need an akobata Fulani mention. Keep your bullsh1ft to yourself.  |

Nigerians with our foolishness, government payout dropped because crude oil is already at a 6 year low. My question is why are we still paying N1.1B per day? When crude oil is selling below $42 for WTI? |

Sincere9gerian: That was why I didn't join in the fight over who takes credit for fixing refineries. I'm of the opinion that those relics, called refineries, are better sold off. Govt should not spend any penny in either maintaining or repairing them. In addition, govt should support the private sector to build local refineries. Govt has no business in business. That is the only way forward and GEJ was already doing that. The privatization process had already commenced, though opposed by labour unions, while Dangote was supported to start building a refinery No serious business man will spend one naira on any refinery in Nigeria. Nigeria should give them away for free to the IOCs |

Truckpusher: When the animal is still hell bent on making life difficult for the average Rivers people he bamboozled for 8yrs? Bro , sometimes you need to deal with the enemy inside the house before anything strategic can be discussed. That's why Wike needs to keep him quiet. So far he has done a great job. |
Politics › Re: Court Okays Probe Of Amaechi's Administration by atlwireles: 4:16pm On Aug 21, 2015 |
Truckpusher: I understand the angle you're coming from but again he's better off there .
He already did his thing and any form of payment is a welcomed idea to serve as lesson to people that still run with his tendencies. I agree with keeping him quiet and allowing the people of rivers state have some peace of mind. But probing him as the only thieving gov, when the very people in power were his accomplices in crime, just leaves a very bitter taste in my mouth. Amaechi was foolish, the exclusion and rejection from the people of river state, he currently has to live with, is punishment enough for now. |
Politics › Re: Court Okays Probe Of Amaechi's Administration by atlwireles: 4:03pm On Aug 21, 2015 |
Truckpusher: We are on the same lane but justice should be emcompassing and not subjected to a few people.Because that is an injustice that will usher in another round of political brouhaha that would see us running helter skelter to have a political footing that would bring in stabilization in the economy. Let Buhari probe anyone found wanting and let the gesture be accorded to all his party henchmen that their source of stupendous wealth can not be accounted for religiously after holding a political office. Let the probe begin and grade A charges should be slapped on anyone that has used public fund to enrich himself ,with a heavy prison sentence and an outrageous fine that would send them back to begging for food and you'd see how every political office holder will sit up and do the right thing. As much as I disagree with Amaechi and hated the social/economic disorder he caused in Rivers state, I will not push for his probe, as long as others sit tight and are hailed as heroes. Ibori is a good example, today we call him a thief, the people 1000 million times worse than Ibori are political godfathers. I am not going to play that self prosecution game in Nigeria anymore. |
