Nigerian army 'ordered not to catch Boko Haram leader'

BBC Africa, Lagos

The Nigerian army have issued a bounty of $8,000 (£5,724) for the leader of Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau.

But the BBC has found that, in a recent operation, soldiers were very close to Boko Haram’s main camp in the Sambisa forest when they were ordered to stop and eventually forced to retreat.

Shekau escaped from his hideout leaving behind his cap, a laptop, his jacket, his chewing stick and a pistol, a witness from the vigilante forces, working alongside the Nigerian army, told the BBC.

“They ran away I saw them with my naked eyes,” the witness added.

Around 200 to 300 Boko Haram fighters are in operation, according to a commander who defected just after the attack.

He told the BBC the militants are “still armed, but most of what they say is propaganda”.

The army repeatedly claim they’ve caught, killed or injured their elusive enemy.

But President Muhammadu Buhari’s claim a year ago that Boko Haram was technically defeated is still regarded sceptically by many Nigerians.

Whatever happened to tractors

Somehow niggers want to send us back to the dark ages

RELEASEUS:
Yes we do. I dont know if you understand what I mean by liaison, but in case they are hospitals where the management have agreed to treat and operate our members without blood transfusion. They are allover the place in every state and almost all LG.

Well, I don't just seem aware of medical facilities in Nigeria that do bloodless surgeries.

sanpipita:
Nigerians are very ridiculous, this article is nothing but yet another attention seeking attempt to use the big brother as the fall guy, anyone who blames Nigeria woes of a mere entertainment that runs for just three months max is an undiluted idiot and a coward.

A nation that wants to progress will do so no matter what, US and UK have the biggest and longest reality shows yet they are a working nation, big brother show isn't Nigeria's problem, anyone who thinks so should go and borrow a new brain.

Don't mind them

darkid1:
Impressive point. you would soon see them here trying to make sense out of rubbish... we still do not realize that as Africans, we are behind already globally. Stop comparing your selves to the west, take a cue from the Asians... but no! its to be on screen, or watching the screen as our brains corrode...

As if Asians don't have their own eccentricity
Video games ando manga.

There is just something fundamentally wrong with Nigeria and it is not bbnaija
Mind you I don't watch it.

RELEASEUS:
Story is fabricated no doubt. As a JW we know its a false story because we dont just go to any hospital even in emergencies. We have liaison hospitals and officers everywhere and locality in the whole world. This person is a complete liar and I cannot insult him but will leave him to his conscience.

You have liason hospitals too in Nigeria abi

Nonsense

hedonistic:
Another 'nice guy' bites the dust. You were dating a so-called Corper serving in Cross River State (who was of course fucking a couple of guys there) and she was visiting you in Lagos every weekend - for which you were paying for flight tickets EVERY WEEKEND (minus other standard mende mende expenses)? ? ? As who or as what? As per say you be Aliko Dangote's treasurer abi wetin? Why do you re.ta.rded nice guy fools spend so much money on worthless idiots? Well, whatever happened to you serves you right.

That said, I should reiterate the Gospel truth: love is a scam. Don't take any girl seriously. Don't think you should go out of your way to do anything or commit to her because you think you love her and vice versa. Don't ever get emotional. They're all mostly scammers. What's there to gain for you as a man? Nothing. Any bitch can give you sex. Any bitch can give you a child (verified by. DNA). But this whole relationship, commitment and marriage thing is too one-sided (in favour of females) and often has NO meaningful benefit to the man. It only comes with unnecessary pain and woes. If you see a pretty face, ass, hips, boobs or whatever else that tickles your lust, just Bleep it and move on. Catching feelings always leads to these kinds of miserable outcomes.

This guy is true to his moniker

Cold origin for you

Shhhh....keep quite and dont say it loud again.

They did not confront any cosa nostra...


Cosa nostra gave them the retail drug business and ensure they BUY ALL COSA NOSTRA DRUGS for resale.
There is a rule that the must not carry guns or sell to white people.

They also allow them control prostitution and bring returns every week because the cosa nostra does not want to be involved in prostitution which they view as unclean as they are majority Catholics

Meh I'm reading gomorrah.
And it's being an eye opener
We are still learners compared to italians when it comes to criminality.
These guys don't Bleep around.

With the white lie she told, it means she did it intentionally. You see, the problem is that she is probably under pressure to improve or shoot up her customers' deposit as they are always given monthly targets and she used that trick to delay your use of the money for about 2weeks because that money will leave your account to CBN as soon as your bid is successful. Had she been successful with her tricks, you wouldn't have been able to partake in the Primary market until 28th February which is end of the month

Haha
Na their way.

Check the name, it's either SE, SS or North. It can never be afonja. Since this war on Boko Haram started, I have not heard or seen an afonja soldier dead.
