He said Cameroon previously denied Nigeria permission to pursue Boko Haram into its territory, and added that restrictions on foreign troops were matters of coordination.

“I think the idea is that — look, for any major aggression, we should know. Where possible, let some Nigerian soldiers also be with you,” the president said.

He also said that foreign technicians are present in the northeast to teach Nigerian troops on how to use their new weapons, since there wasn’t time to train the troops before they deployed.

“So we now have this technical people who are trainers and technicians, who are to train our people on how to use them, and
technicians that help the maintenance, at the same time training our people how to maintain this equipment,” Jonathan said.He said two unnamed companies were involved in the training but declined to offer nationalities or numbers of the trainers.

[/b]Jonathan dismissed the suggestion that Boko Haram’s insurgency has come to define his time in office. “Yes,it’s a major security issue, it’s the number one security issue we have as a nation. But definitely you cannot define us by Boko Haram,” he said.

As the multinational offensive continues,Jonathan predicted that the northeastern states of Yobe and Adamawa would be cleared of Boko Haram territory before the middle of next week. He said he hopes neighboring Borno State, where the group started, will be cleared in the next three weeks.

But Jonathan said he expects Boko Haram to continue bombing markets and bus stops. He says the government’s strategy is to improve intelligence gathering as well as job and educational prospects in the northeast as a long-term strategy to destroy the group.

Buhari praises troops

His main opponent, General Muhammadu Buhari, told VOA last week he is not surprised that Nigerian soldiers have started to push Boko Haram out of areas the militants had captured.Buhari said that in the past the soldiers weren’t properly armed and weren’t properly motivated to fight.

The joint operations with Chad, Niger and Cameroon forced the government to get more sophisticated weapons to the troops,Buhari said.

He also paid tribute to Nigerian soldiers, who,he said, have been known for gallantry in past international peacekeeping operations all over the world and promised them a better deal if he takes over the presidency.

So many things are wrong with it.

Firstly, during the inner door initiation proceeding, he (Mr. President) must have been made to eat human part (they mostly give the preserved Heart of a recently deceased member of the fraternity for sharing).

And secondly, when he dies, no matter the level of security surrounding the person (be it current or ex-head of state), when the time comes, certain part(s) of his body must surely be requested for before the burial.

Thirdly, and beyond been a member, they will have other stringent and inhumanly requests like regular or occasional donation of human blood and other sacrifices.

On this thread, i noticed some comments like "ROF is better than Boko haram". I wish to disagree, as they are both senseless organization that enjoy the blood of innocent beings. The scales of their operations might differ, but killer is a killer!!!!

What an Authentic Christian President?
What a Genuine undiabolical Leader?

With what is playing out now as regard this coming election, All Nigerians should feel concern for the Tomorrow of our great grandchildren.

Let us assume that President Jonathan will win this election, Will he not vacate Aso Rock someday?
Why going these far?
Why allowing himself to be blindfolded to this level of getting initiated into ROF?
Why? Why? Why?

Do not call Lekki fake brov, I know poor people lie when they say they prefer stock fish because it is too strong, but they prefer Tilapia because its soft. The real truth is, they cant afford stock fish. No vex.

What will APC say of Goodluck, Abeg you people have said all there is to say. Produce your documentary make we watch.

Just be prepared for PDP's reply.

Nah ya sha for APC

Free Speech is already under assault before this APC gangster smell power. Thank God they will only die trying.

Free Speech is already under assault before this APC gangsters smell power. Thank God they will only die trying.

What of Buhari? The chief Oluwole himself.

onatisi:
Only ignorant ppl will refuse to acknowledge that buhari popularity has drastically diminished .the crowd that welcomed him in feb was at least 10 times this size ,all I can see and just a handful of okada riders waving to the cameras not even to buhari.even this thread would have reached 10pages by now if it was in feb,but na picture dey carry the thread reach 3 pages now sef. Owo ti tan . Money don finish for apc campaign

Crowd cost lot of money. Just as you talk. Money don finish.

dtruth3:
Words are not enough to say or describe this, but the truth remains that; no one has ever climbed a Pepper tree. PDP has spoken, just like they always do. But the question is; will the APC take a little moment and listen? will they for once, at least learn to take the attention off themselves? maybe then, they will start noticing the world arround them!
Believe it or not, GEJ has spoken, and PDP has spoken too; and we can hear it loud and clear, just like the Biblical quote of "Teke teke mene"

Once has PDP spoken, but twice have i heard, that power belong to the people which the PDP represent.
Finally, may i use this opportunity to congratulate senator Obanikoro. And also, sieze this opportunity to applaud the firm control of the senate house, by the one and only; Senator David Bonaventure Mark!

The leadership of David Mark is the hidden secret of PDP's power play in Abuja.

steadymind:
Details have emerged that Geneal Martin Luther Agwai’s sack has more to do with disagreements about the usage of SURE-P funds than about his attendance of Gen. Obasanjo’s birthday. SURE-P has always been a set up to help fund President Jonathan’s campaign and the campaign of other PDP party interests. The structure of SURE-P is such that critical positions are held by people who have a direct link with the Jonathan campaign.

For instance, state coordinators for President Jonathan’s campaign in 2011 are also the current state coordinators for SURE-P, this is not a mere coincidence but a well-orchestrated attempt to give the Jonathan campaign an unfair advantage at the 2015 Polls.

Some of the coordinators are Alhaji Bode Oyedele, (Lagos); Mr. Joseph Ishekpa (Nasarawa); Alhaji Garba A. Kurfi.(Katsina): Alhaji Aliyu Mamman (Niger); Alhaji Adamu Yaro Gombe (Gombe); Hon Femi Akinyemi (Ekiti); Jarigbe Agbom Jarigbe (Cross River); Chief Abdullahi Ohioma (Kogi); Dare Adeleke (Oyo); Alhaji Al-Kasim Madoka (Kano) and Alhaji Kolo Bukar (Borno).

The Lagos State coordinator Alhajo Bode Oyedele is a known ally of Mr Bode George, a PDP Chieftain. All of these people were placed at SURE-P to help direct resources to President Jonathan’s campaign.

General Martin Agwai (retd.) as SURE-P chairman got 41% of the funds from the reduction in subsidy. This amounted to N15bn Monthly, FG appointed state coordinators got the rest. The General was sacked because of his refusal to commit SURE-P funds to the president’s re-election ambition. You will recall that in the current budget, the money meant for the Ministry of Works has been redirected to SURE-P. Reports had emerged that the former SURE-P Chairman as sacked because he attended former President Obasanjo’s birthday but appears to only be a sideshow in the whole controversy surrounding his sack.

I understand you more than you think I do presently and if I am not mistaken we have had exchanges in the past here to that effect.

We are in an electoral season and I am doing all I can to ensure Jonathan, the BETTER by far of the two main candidates wins on the 28th.
I am sure you also can understand that.

Thanks for calling out the pretender.

nah only laugh come my mind

Alphaoscar:
You guys should stop this stupid lies of Rivers state paying Osun's salary. Its very crude and unintelligent of you.



The problem is caused by the drop in the price of crude oil and the problem is not affecting Osun or APC states alone but the Governor should have find a means of paying the workers salary or get the hell out of that office.

Call it whatever you want, Rivers state paid off Osun's salary backlog before aregbe's election. I really don't have time to waste on silly pointless arguments.

For anyone to think the federal government is withholding Osun's allocation is beyond stupidityyy. Ekiti is poorer than Osun, are they making payments? The truth is, APC states are under financial pressure, because of their debts and campaign donations to Buhari.

The President had to explain this same matter to the Obas in Osun last week, when the issue of non payment came up. Remember before the 2014 aregbe election, River state cleared billions owed by Osun state to workers and pensioners. Osun is in trouble, as long as the price of crude maintains its downward projection.

GEJ TILL 2019

The Kibaku Area Development Union, an umbrella body for the Chibok community in Borno State, says claims by the Borno State Governor Kasim Shettima, that the community insisted that their wards take their final exams in Chibok, rather than in Maiduguri, the state capital, are false.



The chairman of the association, Mr Hosea Tsambido, asked the government and his aides to desist from blaming the parents and families of the abducted girls for the incidence.

Mr Tsambido urged the government to channel its energy at ensuring that the girls returned home safely.

He further stressed that making such allegations and statements would only further traumatise the community.

The association urged government at all levels to avoid wiping unnecessary sentiments with the issues.

It has been more than 11 months since the over 200 girls were abducted from the Government Girls Secondary School Chibok in Borno State by members of the terrorist group the Boko Haram.

Last week, a spokesman for the military said the chances of getting back the Chibok girls were within the totality of ongoing operations against the terrorist group.

The military has increased offensive against the Boko Haram sect in the last few weeks after Nigeria’s general elections dates were postponed by six weeks. The elections will hold on March 28 and April 11.

All I have to say is backward never.

GEJ TILL 2019.

36 towns captured by the Nigerian military and 2 towns captured by Chadians. Who is doing the core of the fighting?

I know many of you anti Nigerian army sadist are pained. Don't worry, the men will get the job done. You can give credit to Chad and Niger.

You have to feel sorry for APC's social media squad and their lies. Are your comments here, about the same debate Nigerians saw?

Let's expand the voting process, people should be allowed to vote as long as their names are on the INEC register and are in possession of TVCs and PVCs.

INEC and Jega should not be allowed to set this country on fire.
