The 1 Brigade, Nigerian Army, Sokoto, reported on August 12, 2013, Monday, about the raid on the hideout of suspected Boko Haram insurgents, which started on Sunday night. The arrest of suspected gang leader, Mubarak, alias Dan-Hajiya, have been also confirmed.
Captain Yahaya Musa, spokesman of the brigade, said at a news briefing in Sokoto that the operation was jointly
conducted with operatives of the State Security Service
(SSS).

He said the operation was in continuation of the series of raids by security agencies to rid Sokoto, Kebbi and
Zamfara states of some fleeing insurgents from volatile
states of Borno, Adamawa and Yobe.

"Troops of the brigade have in the past few days
intensified raids on the hideouts of these suspected Boko
Haram terrorists.

"We have also made several arrests and investigations are ongoing; so this is the only one we can authoritatively confirm now.

"But I can, however, authoritatively confirm that there
were no deaths recorded either on the side of the
insurgents or the military and SSS," he said.

Captain Musa said that arms and ammunition were
recovered from the house of the suspect at Nakasari area of Sokoto. He said that items recovered included three AK-47 riffles, one riot gun, 153 rounds of 7.62 mm
ammunitions, explosives, three cartons of acid, knock-
outs, chemicals and thermometers.

He appealed to the residents to shun rumours and urged
them to sustain the tempo of support and cooperation with the security agencies.

Sloganz: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Imagine dating your friend's mother.
LOOOL some people are shameless.
This made my day.

Why are you so happy?

This kind story made your day?

Did you read the part that the victim is dead?

Are you not worried about this horrible way of killing?

Oh! You need a serious medical attention!!!

Let's say i see a MASE around me, i would have reset that your thinking faculty with it.

NOT less than five persons died when two factions of
youths popularly called Civilian Joint Task Force (JTF)
clashed in Biu, in a raid on Boko Haram terrorists, one of
the survivor told the Nigerian Tribune.
Biu is about 185 kilometres away from Maiduguri, Borno
State capital, and has witnessed series of killings and
bombings by suspected Boko Haram terrorists.
Abdullahi Mohammed, who sustained gunshot injury
during the incident and currently receiving treatment at
the Federal Medical Centre (FMC) in Gombe, confirmed
the incident to newsmen.
“Allhadulillahi. I am still alive. I was shot on my chest by
soldiers, but Allhadulillahi, the medical doctors here have
successfully removed the bullet from my body,”
Mohammed said.
According to him, trouble started when a group of
civilian JTF from Maiduguri, accompanied by soldiers,
invaded Biu town, in search of Boko Haram terrorists.
“The civilian JTF in Biu asked those that came from
Maiduguri to leave the town, because their presence in
the town is likely to cause more harm than good to
residents,” he said.
According to him, it was in the process that a fight
ensued between the two youth groups, leading to the
death of five persons.
“I saw five dead bodies before I was rushed to FMC in
Gombe. It is possible the casualty figure may be more
than five, because only two of us survived. I can’t tell
where other dead bodies were deposited,” Mohammed
said.
Efforts to get the JTF or the police to confirm or deny the
incident failed, as GSM telecommunications remained
grounded in Borno State.
Borno govt fumigates liberated Boko Haram’s dens
As normalcy is gradually returning to Maiduguri, the
state Ministry of Enviroment has begun massive
fumigation and clearing of drainage of areas within the
town previously under the stranglehold of the outlawed
Boko Haram sect.
The sanitation came on the heels of the call by the state
government to all the fleeing residents of the town to
return back to their homes.
Nigerian Tribune, at the weekend, gathered that former
enclaves of the sect, which were deserted at the peak of
the crisis, had started showing signs of life, as some of
the fleeing residents had returned.

A man suspected to have killed one Goltona
Salihu for ritual purpose has been arrested with
two dry human eyes believed to have been
those of the victim.
The principal suspect, one Tacha Tali, was
arrested with the human eyes last week, July 26,
according to the Plateau State Commissioner of
Police, Chris Olakpe. Tali was paraded
alongside three other suspects said to have
collaborated with him in committing the act.
“Tacha Tali was arrested and during the course
of investigation, he confessed that he was the
one who killed Goltona Salihu and plucked his
eyes for ritual purposes,” the police
commissioner said.
Olakpe said Goltona Salihu named three
collaborators; Nengak Sunday, Ngonap
Tapyitda, and Kulime Nangkum, the latter being
the herbalist among them.
The police commissioner added, “On February
22, 2013, one Salihu Miri of Shwar village in
Kanke Local Government Area reported that his
son, Goltona Salihu, left home to graze cows
and he did not return. A search party was
organised and they later found the corpse of his
son without eyes in a decomposing state.”

•Says Gov must beg him
•Declares: ‘If President Jonathan removes me as
minister, I’ll continue to fight’
Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State must brace up
for more trouble from the opposition in the days and
months ahead, if the threat, yesterday, by one of the
forces against him, is anything to go by.
Minister of State for Education, Nyesom Wike, boasted at
a reception for him in Port Harcourt that he is ready to
make life even more uncomfortable for the governor who
is locked in the political battle of his life with the
Presidency and his party (PDP), at the state and federal
levels; the State Police Commissioner, Mbu Joseph Mbu
and the Police Command; the Minister and his five
supporters in the State House of Assembly; ex-militants;
as well as other political forces from within and outside
the state.
The reception also doubled as a grand finale of the
inauguration of units of the Grassroots Development
Initiative (GDI) in Obio/Akpor LGA of the state.
Wike is the grand patron of GDI.
“We will make sure they will not sleep again, as they are
sleeping now. They will not sleep with their two eyes
closed. One eye will be open because they know there is
danger,” the minister said, 24 hours after Amaechi told a
delegation of Niger Delta Bishops who are trying to
resolve the political crisis in the state that Wike remains
a minister today by “the grace of God” and his
(Amaechi’s) effort.
The governor’s words: “Nyesom Wike was appointed
Chief of Staff by me. Nyesom Wike as a Minister of State,
I nominated him. I was under pressure by the President
to drop him, I refused. The President persuaded me to
drop him and bring a woman but I refused.
” I heard he is going all over town saying I didn’t appoint
him, I didn’t appoint him, the President appointed him
but I nominated him to be a minister as the Chairman of
Nigeria Governors’ Forum. I did, but you know character
doesn’t come easily, character is a very difficult thing
and I am a man of character.”
But in what looked like a response to the broadside fired
at him on Friday by Amaechi, the minister said yesterday
that the governor and the 27 members of the State
Assembly on his side have not had enough trouble
occasioned by their April 22 suspension of the Obio/
Akpor Local Government Council.
Wike, who is aspiring to replace Amaechi as governor in
2015, hails from the local government area. He was a
two-term chairman of the council.
The minister, speaking at yesterday’s rally, said: “They
said we are nobody. Then they have seen. When you are
dealing with nobody, be careful. The nobody will show
you that he is somebody. We will make sure they will not
sleep again. As they are sleeping, they will not sleep with
their two eyes closed. One eye will be open, because
they know there is danger.
“Those who are saying they must remove me, I have
even overstayed. For you to be minister for two years,
you must thank your God. If today we are no longer
minister, do not worry yourself. It will not change us. We
will continue to fight for what we believe in.
“We were not minister when we fought for them in 2007.
When we were here, they were not having problems.
Now, we have gone, they are having problems.
“We have always told them: you cannot do it. What you
do not know, you do not know. It does not matter,
whatever money you have, money cannot buy
everything. Now, they are having sleepless nights. When
we were here, were they having sleepless nights?
“When we were here, were they not travelling up and
down? Are they travelling again? Tell them, they should
come and beg us. Tell them to come back and beg us.
We will tell them the secret. What God has not given to
you, you do not need to do anything about it.
“I can assure you, all they are asking for: they want a
commissioner of police that will be arresting you.
Anytime they call the CP, he will arrest you. But let me
tell you, we are not interested in whoever comes here
(CP), all we are interested in is to have somebody who
will not be partial.
“Let them bring whoever they want to bring (as CP).We
want somebody who will want democracy to be practised
in Rivers State. They said one man, one vote. Now, they
do not want one man, one vote again.
“Obio/Akpor LGA is not a place you can toy with. Those
who feel they can suspend Obio/Akpor council officials,
we will make them uncomfortable. They felt once they
had dissolved the council, they would sleep.
“The party has suspended them, because they have
touched the lion and when you touch the lion, you know
the consequences. Since they said the councillors will
not take their salaries, they also will know that they will
not belong to the PDP.
“The party chairman (Chief Felix Obuah) warned them
and they said he would not be able to do anything. At the
end of the day, they are going to court to challenge us.
We will meet them in court. We are not afraid of the
court. We are accustomed to it. All the ones they have
gone, we have been winning them and we will continue
to win them.
“They are doing everything they can. They are using
their power and their money. Money cannot solve all
problems. Sometimes, you have to come back home and
realise that the people matter a lot. It is the power of the
people that has put us in positions and you must come
back to thank the people.
“Forget about what they are doing to you (his
supporters). Do not worry. We are all together. Do not
lose hope. God is on the throne.”
Wike said the suspended Chairman of Obio/Akpor LG, Mr.
Timothy Nsirim, who also attended the rally; his deputy,
Solomon Eke, and the 17 councillors have been denied
their salaries since April, but said that is part of the
sacrifice to make democracy survive.
The minister asked the people of the state to continue to
support President Jonathan and the party.
He urged members of the GDI, in particular, to go to all
the wards, communities and families in the state not to
abandon President Jonathan and his wife.
Wike added: “Your duty as GDI members is to go and
mobilise the entire state for our son (Jonathan),
eventually when he decides to run and we believe the
people of the Southsouth zone cannot sacrifice, for
whatever it is, our own son, for anything less than
President.”
Factional Chairman of the PDP in the state, Chief Felix
Obuah, pledged at the function to reconcile Amaechi,
Wike and other aggrieved members of the party in the
state.
Obuah said: “I want to invite the governor (Amaechi), the
minister (Wike) and all aggrieved members of Ikwerre
community, to be with me in my palace next weekend.
Let us sit down and fashion a way forward. I will not sit
down and see my children quarrelling, and I will not feel
concerned.”
A former Deputy Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Austin Opara, described Obio/Akpor
LGA as the home of the GDI and the PDP, stressing that
“anybody standing on your way is standing before a
moving train and will be crushed.”
The President-General of the GDI, Bright Amewhule, in
his remarks, stated that President Jonathan would be
supported to return in 2015 and that they were solidly
behind Wike.
The ceremony is the latest by the anti-Amaechi camp in
the state.
Similar ceremonies by pro-Amaechi groups are routinely
disallowed by the police, prompting observers from
within and outside the state to accuse the police
leadership in the state of taking sides.
A rally scheduled for last Tuesday by civil rights groups
to protest what they called anti-democratic tendencies in
the state was not allowed to hold by the police.
Some militants even threatened that the lives of some of
those expected at the rally were not safe should they
come.

Idokojimmy: That is, if it survives till 2015. We must recall that the current leadership is an interim structure and very soon, a national congress may be convene. If that happens, it will be the survival of the fittest. It will be Tinubu against Buhari. I jus d laff
Moreover, the Islamic structure of the party is still a cause for concern.

•Says 5 Northern govs want to stop Jonathan from contesting SHOULD President Goodluck Jonathan decide to contest the 2015 presidential election, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will have no choice than to give him the ticket, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Dr. Doyin Okupe, has declared.
He also said that the five northern state governors who
have been going around the country ostensibly to stop
any attempt by the President to go for a second term in
office have their own agenda but only using the Rivers
State crisis as a smokescreen.
The Presidential aide assured that nobody can beat the
President whenever he makes up his mind to join the
race.
Okupe, who made the declaration while fielding
questions from newsmen in Abuja on Thursday, said it
would be advantageous to the ruling party to field the
incumbent President who, rather than campaign with
what he will do when elected, will convince the
electorate with what he had already achieved.
He said, “If this party PDP is a very serious party, which I
believe it is, if the President decides to run, why should
the party pick somebody else? The only advantage it will
have in contesting is that it has an incumbent President
who will not be telling Nigerians that ‘vote for me I will
do this.’ He will be telling Nigerians ‘vote for me, I have
done this.’
“All those talking about no automatic ticket, what they
are saying is politically unwise and impracticable and
they cannot come to pass.”
The Presidential aide, who emphasised that Jonathan has
not decided to run, was confident that if he so decides,
nobody can beat him.
He added that those who are boasting that the south will
never win the presidency are “day dreaming” as what
they are saying “will never come to pass.”
“President Jonathan has not decided and has not told
anybody. That is the truth. If he decides to run, nobody
can beat him, it’s not possible. The calculations are in
his favour, the odds are in his favour, the national
supports are in his favour, the performance index is in
his favour,” he stated.
Okupe further remarked that the five northern governors
who are presently touring the country, are not telling
Nigerians the truth as they have an agenda other than
the Rivers State crisis which they claim they are holding
consultations over.
According to him, “they have their own agenda. It is not
what they are telling the Nigerian public. They are telling
us that the real motivating factor is this Rivers State and
people keep talking about crisis in Rivers State. How do
you define crisis? There is no unrest in Rivers State.
“Nobody is burning any house in Rivers State.
Commuters, traders and business men are going about
their businesses in Rivers State, the governor is
junketing abroad or rather having a good time. All these
talk is just in the imagination of those who want to stoke
the fire that does not exist.
“There is no problem in Rivers State. I have said it and I
am saying it again, (Governor Rotimi) Amaechi has a
problem with some members of House of Assembly.
Within the House of Assembly in Rivers State, there are
divisions and it is not strange. It is not unusual.
“Over 18 Speakers have been removed in this our young
democracy and nothing happened. Like I told you, this is
2015 live. Everything you hear about Rivers State,
anything you hear about governors moving all over the
place is nothing to do with Rivers State.
“Rivers State is a political camouflage. You can quote
me. The real thing is intense politicking by people with
very serious interest in the polity or who have agenda
they want to make sure manifest by hook or by crook.
“They are going all over the country, trying to mobilize
support for what they want to do. Someone said that
they try to intimidate the President not to run because, it
is obvious they are insisting that there will be no open
ticket for the President.”
On the registration of the All Progressives Congress
(APC) by the Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC), Okupe maintained that it is a testimony to the
openness and transparency of the Jonathan
administration.
He added that the existence of APC as a political party
will lessen the burden of the PDP which will now
concentrate its effort in tackling one party rather than
several parties at the same time.
Okupe remarked, “The registration of APC is perhaps the
most powerful, the most eloquent testimony of the
openness, transparency, honesty and political liberalism
of President Goodluck Jonathan.
“This would not have happened under many African
Presidents, especially when it is obvious to those who
care to study the situation properly that there were
obvious hurdles and obstacles to that registration, which
could have been exploited, and could have amplified and
could have been used by people of lesser integrity to
frustrate the APC.
“This is a testament and this is a testimony that contrary
to what you said, we have no fear whatsoever about APC
registration. We are not in any way anxious. These are
people that were beaten individually before and
collectively we will defeat them randomly.
“But we are glad that at least now instead of fighting
three or four parties, we can concentrate on one and get
it done. I can assure you that there is nobody in the Villa
that is worried. For us it is a good thing, it is a great
development.
“I don’t know whether the opposition is credible enough.
I cannot attest to that, but at least you know, what we
have is that we have political parties that have been
inept previously, that have been extremely weakened
and of no serious political importance. They have now
come together under one umbrella with an attempt to
challenge the status quo. We will see how far they can
go.”

A wanted robbery suspect, Abiodun Ogunjobi, aka Abbey
Godogodo, who was said to have been terrorising the
South-West for some time, has been arrested by the
Lagos State Police Command.
According to police authorities, the suspect led the gang
that killed seven people, including the owner of 04 Hotel,
Ajah, Lagos, Olanrewaju Subair, on July 7, 2013.
They also killed two other security guards at a popular
hotel along Apapa Road, Ebute Meta area of the state on
the same day.
The suspect, who was paraded on Thursday, told PUNCH
Metro that he killed many policemen, adding that he had
been into robbery for over 10 years and had built
houses.
Ogunjobi said, "I started robbery in 1996 but in 1999, I
was charged for fighting. I spent about seven years in
prison. My prolonged stay in prison for minor crime of
fighting hardened me and I vowed to pay back the police
for that injustice. After I was released, I went to
Katangowa in Iyana-Ipaja area of Lagos to meet my
friend, Odun.
"Odun was an armed robber, so, we started operating
together. We worked with several gangs and I invested
lots of my money in arms buying. I also built five houses
in Ifo, Ilaro, Ikorodu and Ibadan. I usually kill policemen
and take their rifles because policemen have killed
several of my boys and taken most of my rifles from
them.
"I have no regrets for all I have done. I have no advice
for young people, who want to become armed robbers
like me. I have three children from three women. The
police should take all my properties."
PUNCH Metro learnt that the 36-year-old suspect was
arrested by men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad at his
home in the Egbeda area of Ibadan, Oyo State, after he
had been monitored for three weeks.
Policemen attached to SARS, said the suspect narrowly
escaped arrest on July 14, 2013 when he and members
of his gang engaged SARS operatives in a shoot-out
along Eko Bridge, Lagos Island, after they killed two
policemen at Ebute-Ero and Ajao Estate respectively.
According to police authorities, the suspect had been
evading arrest because he hardly used the same gang
members twice.
A police source said, "He is the most notorious armed
robber we have had in the South-West in the past 14
years.
"We arrested him 11am on Thursday at his mansion at
the Olowu area of Egbeda LGA Ibadan Oyo State and
recovered two AK47 rifles and 10 loaded AK47
magazines in his house.
"Godogodo has killed many policemen and civilians. His
most recent activity was at Ajah, where he killed the
owner of 04 Hotel and eight others, including two
policemen few weeks ago. He has also led several bank
robberies in Kwara, Ogun, Osun, Ekiti and Oyo states."
The Commissioner of Police, Umar Manko, described the
suspect as a notorious criminal, who had been on the
radar of the police for some time.
He said the suspect would be given medical treatment
and charged to court.

THE Felix Obuah-led Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in
Rivers State has fired a warning signal to one of its
members , Senator Magnus Abe, as it has indicated its
resolve to sanction him and other top members whom it
accused of anti-party activities.
Abe had been a top supporter of the Rivers State
governor, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi.
The governor of Rivers State is currently serving a
suspension order slammed on him by the Obuah-led PDP
on his reported failure to reverse the sack of the
executive of Obio-Akpor Local Government despite
earlier ultimatum the party had issued to him.
In a swift reaction, Senator Abe said he should never be
seen in the light of a rabble-rouser by any member of the
party based on his efforts towards ensuring the return of
peace and stability to PDP in Rivers State.
Abe’s media consultant, Mr Honour Serakus in a
statement said Obuah’s PDP should appreciate efforts by
the senator for mediating in the crises engulfing PDP in
Rivers instead of misinterpreting his statesman’s roles.
Felix Obuah warned that the party would no longer
tolerate deliberate acts of indiscipline and disrespect to
the party by any of her members in the state no matter
the office or the social status of such erring party
member.
The chairman, in a statement issued by his Special
Adviser (Media), Jerry Needam, said the decision was
taken against the backdrop of recurring intentional
malicious utterances and actions by certain members of
the party who are bent on dragging the good name of
the party in the mud and, or creating disaffection
between the party and the general public.
According to the party, while the leadership was making
frantic efforts to nip the raging crisis in the bud, no
member of the party should be seen to be frustrating
such efforts.
He said “certain members of the party notably, Senator
Magnus Ngei Abe, Hon Andrew Uchendu, Hon Dakuku
Peterside and some others have been busy throwing
spanners into the works of progress through unguarded
statements and divisive actions.
“The party reminds such members and dissidents of the
provisions of Article 9 of the party’s constitution which
forbids all members from any act that will portray the
party in bad light including publishing or distributing to
the media, any material which purports to be the view of
any faction or tendency within the party.”
Obuah warns that failure to refrain from such anti-party
activities and, or propaganda detrimental to the party,
the party leadership in the state would be left with no
other option but to refer such cases to the Disciplinary
Committee for appropriate action in line with party rules
and regulations.
“We, therefore, enjoin all our party members to be wary
of the temptation to challenge the supremacy of the
party, as not heeding this advice certainly carries dire
consequences, because to be forewarned is to be
forearmed,” he stated.
House leader to remain in police custody
After days of rows and speculations, the detained Leader
of the Rivers State House of Assembly, Chidi Lloyd, was
arraigned in court in Port Harcourt on Wednesday.
Though the pressure mounted to arraign the lawmaker
yielded the secondary aim of arraignment, the primary
aim of getting him released on bail was defeated as
other arguments preoccupied the court session.
Lloyd was taken to court by police, aided by two persons
to ascend the stairs to the second floor of the court
building hosting Court 11 where Justice L.L. Nyorde
presided.
Ample time was spent on arguments by the Attorney
General and Commissioner for Justice of Rivers State,
Wogu Boms, who appeared in court to take over the
prosecution of the matter as it is a matter involving the
state, a position opposed by the prosecution lead
counsel, Donald De-Wigwe (SAN).
De-Wigwe argued that the state Attorney-General could
not take over the criminal proceedings when there was
no proper arraignment of the accused before the court,
claiming that it was premature.
Also, Beluolisa Nwofor (SAN) who earlier announced his
appearance with other lawyers for Lloyd had objected to
the appearance of De-wigwe and other lawyers for the
prosecution.
Nwofor submitted that De-wigwe, being a private legal
practitioner, must by law obtain a fiat from the state
Attorney-General to prosecute the matter, adding that a
letter he showed to the court was not enough.
He said though the police under section 23 of the Police
Act has powers to prosecute criminal cases, but such
was subject to the powers of the state Attorney-General.
Judge Nyordee, having listened to the parties, adjourned
the case till August 6, 2013, for ruling on both points of
arguments whether Attorney General should take over or
whether De-Wigwe should continue with the prosecution
without a valid fiat from the Attorney General.
The development left the accused, Lloyd remanded in
custody, resulting in anger by his teeming political
associates and supporters who had thronged the court
hoping to have him granted bail yesterday.
However, the Force spokesman, CPS Frank Mba told the
Nigerian Tribune that since the trial could not go on, the
status quo is maintained, which means that Lloyd will be
in police custody until August 6, when the trial judge will
continue the case.

A National Leader of the All Progressives Congress,
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, yesterday described the
registration of the APC as an irreversible cause of
change and people oriented development.
In a statement, he said: “ Once again, history is made in
our country and before our very eyes.The confirmation of
the registration of the All Progressives Congress (APC),
by INEC signals the commencement of a new phase in
the struggle to bring true democratic change to Nigeria.
This is not just a merger. This is the first ever merger in
the history of Nigeria. It represents a paradigm shift in
the politics of our country. Together we must own it. As
Nigerians, we see history unfold before our very eyes
and we must rise up to answer the call of history to
liberate our people. I congratulate all our governors,all
our members from the North-East, North West,South-
South, South- East, South-West and the North-Central
and all would-be members and well wishers of our great
party, APC.
“ Let me single out for congratulations the leadership of
the merging parties, particularly the executives and the
entire membership of APC for their perseverance,
doggedness and the sacrifices they made in the interest
of our country.
“They resolutely stood behind the merger and had trust
in the leadership and the process. Their faith in the
message of change that APC represents has been aptly
demonstrated. It is to them that the greatest credit goes
to. Because we fulfilled the laws for registration as
prescribed, we all along were confident that our party
will be registered. We worked hard to ensure that our
party was in good stead and in good standing with the
law.
“Selfish interest and ego were shelved. Personal
sacrifices were made, particularly by those who hitherto
occupied higher positions in the merging parties in the
interest of moving Nigeria forward.
“I congratulate millions of Nigerians who stood by us
during the long process to form the APC and actualise its
objective. This registration is a culmination of concerted
and diverse efforts and commitment by our people to
work for a new Nigeria.
“With APC, a new Nigeria is necessary and is possible.
“I also want to congratulate the leadership of INEC
headed by Prof. Jega and the entire institution for this
positive pronouncement. Nigerians must give INEC a pat
on the back for complying with the law of the land. What
INEC has done is to follow the Constitution and the
Electoral Act to the letter. We hope INEC will continue in
this spirit of independence and respect for the rule of law
in all its future operations.
“Today, I can say that Nigeria’s democratic journey has
started on a new course and we must pursue this course
religiously and rigorously. Our commitment to achieving
One Man, One Vote remains resolute.
“We therefore must demand from INEC the full adoption
of the biometric system. Prof. Jega and the Institution he
leads will not achieve much and their efforts at free and
fair elections will not be fruitful until they adopt a
modern technologically-driven biometric system that will
ensure the integrity of our elections and earn the
confidence of Nigeria.
“If this is done, we can then say our democracy has
advanced several miles forward to join other civilised
democracies in Africa. Good job, Jega and INEC. You
deserve an administrative pat on the back. The real
kudos will come when you work to midwife a virile
democracy.
“Finally, with the registration of All Progressives
Congress, APC, the momentum for change has gained in
acceleration as this merger is ready to set Nigeria on an
irreversible course of change and people-oriented
development. Congratulations Nigerians.The struggle has
just begun, because democratic victory is certain.”

DEPUTY governor of Borno State, Zannah Umar Mustapha, has said the state is still having some problems, though relative peace is being restored, adding that the state, for now, was not interested in the restoration of GSM network services.

Mustapha said this while receiving members of the Senate Committee on Defence, Police, Army and National Security, during a visit to the state, on Monday.

According to him, the government was not interested in the restoration of GSM network services for now, as it would distablise the relative peace being enjoyed in the state.

It will be recalled that since the declaration for the state of emergency in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states, the Joint Task Force (JTF) has cut off telecommunications services in the states, in their offensive raid on Boko Haram sect members.

Mustapha commended the committee, led by its chairman, Senator George Sekibo, for their concern on how to end the Boko Haram insurgency in the North, adding that the committee had demonstrated a sense of nationalism, for revisiting the state to assess the security situation.

The deputy governor said although there were pockets of killings by suspected Boko Haram members in Mainok village, Biu and Kukawa council areas, the government was optimistic that total peace would be restored across the state in no distant time.

Earlier, Senator Sekibo had told the deputy governor that they were in the state for the second time to assess the security situation, meet with security agencies and stakeholders, with a view to collectively review the security challenges in the state.
