Full-blooded niger deltan

Illeterate Militant.

Amaudeogu:
ABUJA — President Muhammadu Buhari, yesterday, in Niger Republic renewed his vow to crush the Boko Haram Islamic sect, saying “five years of the presence of this evil sect is enough.”
Speaking at a news conference in Niger during his first visit outside the country since inauguration, Buhari expressed confidence in the ability of the Nigerian military to overcome and eradicate Boko Haram.
At the news conference with Niger’s President Mahamadou Issoufou, he also said that Nigeria will soon take over from Nigerien soldiers who occupy towns liberated from the Islamist militant group. He noted that the Nigerian Army which has earned a good reputation worldwide remains a virile fighting force.
His words: “I renew my commitment to track Boko Haram into a corner, to destroy it. Five years of the presence of this evil sect is enough. On the issue of the Niger military positioned in cities of Nigeria, I think in the next four weeks we will be able to replace them with Nigerian forces so they can return to their country”.
Buhari said the other nations would provide weapons and help restore infrastructure destroyed by the insurgents. He also thanked Niger for hosting as many as 150,000 refugees who fled insecurity in Nigeria to Niger.
A statement signed by Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity quoted the President as saying that because of the peculiarity of insurgency, Nigeria will require the assistance of its neighbours.
“I am four days in office today and we have already started the process of ending the insurgency,” the President said.
He disclosed that in the course of the over five hours meeting he held with heads of Nigeria’s Armed Forces and security agencies on Tuesday, on-going operations against Boko Haram were reviewed for better results.
President Buhari said that because of the peculiarities of terrorism, the movement of terrorists across borders and the unconventional nature of the war against terror, Nigeria will continue to seek the support of neighbouring countries in its bid to overcome Boko Haram.
The President said that his visit to Niger was to seek more support from the country in bringing a quick end to the atrocities of Boko Haram.
President Buhari said he would hold similar meetings on security and the war against terrorism with the Chadian authorities after leaving Niamey today.
The President said Nigeria would also require the assistance of other nations and multi-lateral institutions to rebuild areas that have been adversely affected by the Boko Haram insurgency and rehabilitate displaced persons.
Niger President commends Buhari
In his remarks, the President of Niger commended President Buhari for making Niger the first country he will visit after his inauguration.
“Your decision to move the military command of Nigeria to the North-East has further strengthened our conviction that the war against terrorism will soon come to an end,” he told President Buhari, while assuring him that Niger will continue to support Nigeria in the fight against Boko Haram.
“Niger is ready to help flush out Boko Haram and protect its borders, its people and their property,” Issoufou said, adding that a new multinational force of 8,700 troops from Nigeria, Niger, Chad, Cameroon and Benin to combat the insurgency in the Lake Chad region will become operational in the coming weeks.

At the opening of bilateral talks between Nigeria and Niger earlier, President Buhari praised his host’s contributions to the on-going multi-national effort against terrorism, insurgency and cross-border crimes.
“Permit me also to acknowledge the consistency with which the government and people of Niger Republic have stood beside Nigeria under all circumstances. I would like to convey the appreciation of Nigeria for the sacrifices by Niger in the on-going efforts to counter the menace of the Boko Haram insurgency.
“Niger Republic has over the years, proven to be a reliable ally to Nigeria both at bilateral and multilateral levels. It is our hope and aspiration that this special relationship would be further consolidated during my administration.
“My administration will bring new impetus and a renewed commitment to the efforts to wipe out the menace of the Boko Haram insurgents. As a first step, we have directed the relocation of the command post of the counter-insurgency operations to Maiduguri until such a time that the insurgency is completely defeated.
“Another issue of concern to us which is closely associated with the insurgency in the region is the influx of refugees and other displaced persons. We are aware that currently, there are over 150, 000 displaced persons comprising refugees and returnees taking refuge in various parts of Niger.
“Our administration will work closely with governments of the affected states to continue to provide humanitarian assistance to the displaced persons and their host communities.
“The ultimate objective, however, remains to end the insurgency and facilitate their return to their homes,” President Buhari said.
Minimah, Badeh, Amosu relocate to Maiduguri tomorrow
Meanwhile, in compliance with the directive by President Buhari that the Command and Control headquarters of the Nigerian Armed Forces should relocate to Maiduguri, the epicentre of the Boko Haram terrorist group, Vanguard can report authoritatively that the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Kenneth Minimah is to lead principal staff officers and some directors to Maiduguri tomorrow.
The Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Adesola Nunayon Amosu will also relocate to Maiduguri with a contingent of his principal staff officers and some directors at NAF headquarters.
Vanguard gathered that both the Army and the Air Force, which are directly prosecuting the war on terrorism from the air and land, are critical to the plan of the Buhari administration to rout Boko Haram out of the North East, while the Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh and the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Usman Jibrin will move to Maiduguri next week.
Already, Vanguard was told that temporary office and accommodations are being erected for the service chiefs and PSOs relocating to Maiduguri.
In the first instance, it was learnt that the Chiefs of Operations, Chiefs of Logistics, Provost Marshals’ and Directors of Intelligence and Information departments of the Army, Air Force and Defence Headquarters will move to Maiduguri for effective coordination of the onslaught against Boko Haram.
Aside the movement of the Command and Control top brass of the armed forces, Vanguard gathered that the Army High Command has directed the deployments of more troops from the 81 and 82 divisions of the Nigerian Army while more aircraft from the Special Operations Group, Logistics Command and the Mobility Command are to be deployed to swell those from the Tactical Air Command for the operation.
Asked if the issue of funding which was cited as one of the major problems for delay in wiping out the Boko Haram terrorism menace has been tackled, the military source said:
“The President has taken care of that issue. He said nothing will stand in his way to clear out the embarrassment that is Boko Haram. That is why the movement is immediate.”
On what becomes of the 7th Division of the Nigerian Army whose headquarters is located in Maiduguri, the source said, there will be no problem or clash, noting that a separate location and office is being created for Army headquarters.
“Due to the urgency of the relocation, the office of the Chief of Army Staff and his personal aides will be in place, the principal staff officers will be accompanied with maybe one or two critical directors and of course, there will be various support staff in place drawn from the services headquarters”, the source added.
It will be recalled that President Buhari had a four-hour meeting with all the service chiefs during which he was briefed about the security situation regarding Boko Haram terrorism and what it will take to carry out his directive to move the Command and Control headquarters to Maiduguri, Borno State.
Asked how long the Command and Control Centre will be in Maiduguri, the source said, “as long as the Commander-in-Chief wants, but since the relocation is not for a jamboree, the objective will be to get the job done as soon as possible which is military fashion.
“But that does not mean other security challenges confronting the country will be given less attention. The economic livewire of the country, the maritime domain will continue to receive adequate attention as well as other contemporary challenges in several parts of the country.
“That is why we have GOC’s, AOC’s and FOC’s in various divisions and equivalent.”

A good one from PDP. Hope their e-rats on nairaland will learn how to be a reasonable and respectable opposition. Not spewing thrash and hurling insults at every thread that APC or Buhari in the title. Let's be civil and responsible

Very very painful. Well I hope others learn.

Na now u know? We know that since. Somebody Sai Baba

All in the name of Green card

nickibarb:
Please help me. I'm drowning.

I am feeling very depressed right now. My marriage has been mainly peaceful and chaos free. I did my part, cared for my husband, cooked for him, was available to satisfy his sexual needs 24/7, prayed for him, dressed like I did when we were dating, kept my body in tiptop shape even after 2 babies via c/s, everyone around me testifies to that both men and women.

In the wee hours of sunday morning, I was playing around with his phone cause i couldn't sleep. I realised he had WHATSAPP and BBM apps, it was surprising cause I had tried to get him to download them repeatedly so we can send pics to each other but he refused. He said he wasn't interested in them, so I deleted mine. Like every curious cat, I wanted to see what he was up to on it since he didn't tell me that he had finally downloaded it.

I saw that he had been flirting with almost 10 different girls, had met up with some, given money to a lot of them (even though our finances have not been in tiptop shape, but i've been persevering cause I know it is temporary - I have a great job offer with a N200k salary post-nysc but they are not ready for me to resume work yet, so I have no income for now). Before I digress too much, the chat that hurt me the most was a girl who asked my husband to be sending her N30k a month or week, i'm not sure again (my eyes were blurred with tears), and then whenever he needs her, he should just tell her which hotel to check into. Funny enough, they all know he is married with kids, they even ask him about his baby in the course of their chat. Another one that broke my heart was a girl he asked to arrange 15 girls for a political event being hosted by his older politician friend and the girls should be ready to provide TLC for them afterwards. From the messages, it was clear that he slept with this particular girl after that event because she reminded him that the money she received is not a replacement for the one he is supposed to give her (i'm guessing after a previous sexcapade).

I am so heartbroken, I don't know what to do. I feel like I gave my marriage my all, I followed all the rules of a good wife, I read books, i don't know what I could have done differently. My husband told me everyday how much he was in love with me for the 2 years we dated prior to marriage (we've been married 2 years and 6 months). I saw no trait of promiscuity in him. I trusted him 100% so I never policed him concerning his whereabouts (it's not really in my nature to be like that). I never saw this betrayal coming so it has been very difficult for me to deal with this. I had an emotional breakdown on sunday night when he went for a meeting with the new governor of our state (he is related to him). He came home at midnight to see me unconscious. I woke up in a hospital, apparently I had overdosed on pills. At that time, I wanted to die to get away from my life, but now I didn't die, i'm happy he came home in time to rescue me. I mean he could have easily stayed out all night because it was a special day (post-inauguration celebration). I don't know how I could have thought of leaving my two little kids less that 2 years old. This man has made me CRAZY. If my family hears about this suicidal attempt, they will make me leave him immediately. My fear is, what happens to my little kids, I don't want another woman to come and maltreat them. We were legally married but not in Nigeria. I don't know if Nigerian courts would recognise our marriage certificate. I don't want to lose my kids. I feel like God has allowed a trial too great for me to handle to come my way. I feel like he over-rated my strength. I am just 27. Isn't it too soon for me to face this kind of life challenge? God knows I married this man out of love, not for money, my parents tried their best for me. They sent me abroad, that's where I met my husband, I didn't even know his family in Nigeria was relatively well-to-do. Some people say if your husband cheats on you, it's nemesis for what you did to other women's husbands. God knows I am innocent. I have tried to find out why my husband who says he loves me everyday, will go out of his way to flirt with girls and sleep with them, (it's not like it's all of them that are coming on to him, he is actually doing most of the chasing). He cannot give me a reason for it, he is just begging me to let it go. I have tried but I'm still hurting, i'm still obsessing about it. How can I heal? I don't want to die and leave my children. How can I stop this pain that is eating me up?

I have read all the articles I can find online about how to get past a cheating husband, it doesn't seem to help. I asked my husband if he used a condom and if I need to go and check for STDs. He is not able to answer me directly but says we can both go and get checked out. I feel like God has forsaken me and I don't deserve it. I have tried to be a good girl all my life. I need this pain in my heart to stop. I need to be sane again.

Ur husband is an End time husband. 10 girls? And he is not sure if he used condom all the times The thunder that will fire that ur husband eh, is in Sango's shrine receiving tutorials

sanandreas:
He paid his dues

Are u a geologist? Ur moniker is dat of the great San Andreas fault.

Dude ur one funny man..

Lol

Kachisbarbie:

[i]Better.
Thanks for elucidating. They made it look like they moved the 8bn once, even though the analysis didn't even sum up.

Na why I confuse.
Even at that, they still need the assistance of security operatives and an oga(s) at the the op.

. U welcome

Blame jonathan for their fatness. He fed them like a pastoral farmer feeds his cattlles......

None of them will make heaven because the bible says "Narrow is the way".

ireneidiva:
Hilarious

Lol its actually a true story

LMAyedun:
And u have nothing to say bah??

So all those things I typed are nothing?

Kachisbarbie:
lols.
I might not know maths, but I know 'cash' and 'bundle counting'. Not forgetting that N1000 is the easiest denomination to bundle count.

20bundles of N1000 can never give 8bn Naira.

You can do the maths, if you're better at Mathematics.
I am calculating based on the info given in the earlier report.



^^^ That's an excerpt from the previous report.

__I stand to be corrected, albeit with accurate calculations.

Dats just a fraction of the scam. Lol. Dey were tellin us how they carried out the scam. It was on a massive scale, hence the arrival of such amount albiet the 8billion

[quote author=Berrymoss post=34361173][/quote]Young lady this not how to start ur nairaland career o. Stop editing my posts.

Kachisbarbie:
I got thinking...

If they stole 20bundles of N1000 notes, how does it equate to 8bn Naira?

Where 1bundle = 5packets
And 1packet = 100 pieces (in a commercial bank).

Whereas in CBN;
1bundle = 10packets.
1packet = 100pieces.

I know I suck at mathematics, but the answer I arrived at isn't close to 8bn Naira.

Not forgetting the heavy security at CBN, let alone where the mutilated notes are been destroyed. Some ogas at the tops are involved, these ones are just scapegoats.

its either u are not good at maths, or u got ur facts all wrong.


well this is nigeria, the more u look the less u see

barcanista:
Nigeria should be renegotiated

i agree with u. but how do we go about it? what will be the rules of engagement? i like how matured they are handling the situation. not how some people looking for freedom since 1967 have been handling their agitation

ok

Sirniyeh:
Please He will not die! But it is not justifiable as the decision signals a slap to all competent/honest Nigerians.

Must Ministerial appointment be limited to the politicians? That is the fundamental mistake that causes lack of progress in this country. All politicians are optimistic about their self interests as that were the primary traits that propel their move to join politics.

Nigeria is blessed with proven competent and men of good integrity.

good men dont get noticed in Nigeria. trust me its better buhari keeps it to himself. he has the experience been that he has held several positions in the oil sector. he has the experience. and people will fear him, it wont be business as usual

Mogidi:
Buhari is following the example of Aregbesola who kept all commissioners positions for himself and his son Kabiru.

u clueless pass ur ex president pay master. its better he keeps the portfolio to himself than put another diezani madueke

Sirniyeh:
Wisdom is the most crucial thing in actualising a dream.

Nigeria challenges is complex and President Buhari should understand that age is not on his side again. Overseeing Petroleum sector as Minister could jeopardise his health. It is not necessary he mans the sector himself. Does it mean no saint among 180millions Nigerians to appoint as the Minister of Petroleum?

I don't believe this trash but in case it is true, He should appoint Pastor Adeboye or Oritsejafor or myself

its better he dies tying to change Nigeria than for him to trust someone with petroleum minister and end up getting burnt like jonathan for trusting someone with such a sensitive portfolio. if its true then its ok

ok

the poster who commented first is high on cheap weed. why will u be looking queue for entering the bank for other transactions? u for go look for the queue na
