PoliticsNavy Denies Killing MASSOB Members by Buyeradvertcom(op): 6:15am On Sep 06, 2015
The Flag Officer Commanding (FOC), Central Naval Command, Rear Admiral Stanley Ogoigbe, yesterday, described as unfounded the alleged killing of members of the Movement of the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) by operatives of the command in Anambra State.

The command, with headquarters in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, is in charge of Anambra, Kogi, Edo, Delta and Bayelsa states.
Ogoigbe, who spoke to newsmen at the command’s headquarters, said it became necessary for him to personally clear the air on the rumoured killing of the MASSOB members which he described as baseless.
Reports had alleged a violent clash between members of the pro-Biafra group and navy personnel in Onitsha, Anambra State, where some members of the group were allegedly killed.
But the FOC dismissed the claim insisting that the navy personnel only shot into the air to scare a large number of MASSOB members who were on a protest march towards the Onitsha head bridge as the protesting youths had already overrun the police on duty and did not injure, let alone, killing a soul.
His words, “No such act was ever committed. The MASOB group was on a protest march. They overran the policemen on duty and were coming towards the navy personnel. As they approached, the navy fired warning shots into the air to scare them away and they all dashed away. Nobody died in the process.
“To our surprise, MASSOB started claiming that the navy has killed two of their men. I don’t know what they wish to achieve with this propaganda, fabricating stories against the navy.
“We just want all well meaning Nigerians to know that no MASSOB member was killed in that area of Anambra State where the navy was keeping peace and carrying out their legitimate duties”.
Also speaking, the Commanding Officer, Naval Outpost, Onitsha, where the incident happened, Navy Capt. Dika Kwabe, said there was no iota of truth in the claim by MASSOB that her members were killed by the navy. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/09/navy-denies-killing-massob-members/
PoliticsHow America, West Frustrated Jonathan’s Anti-boko Haram War by Buyeradvertcom(op): 6:02am On Sep 06, 2015
By Emma Ujah, Abuja Bureau Chief
As President Muhammadu Buhari inquires into the Boko Haram war expenditures under the last administration, it has emerged that Nigeria’s traditional allies in the West deliberately frustrated former President Goodluck Jonathan’s efforts towards ending terrorists’ activities in the country.

US President Barack Obama (R) shakes hands with President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria before their bilateral meeting in New York on September 23, 2013 on the sideline of the United Nations General Assembly. AFP
A security source disclosed in Abuja that Nigeria, under the leadership of Jonathan, wrote 25 letters to the United States of America and other Western nations, seeking to acquire state of the art weapons to deal decisively with the terrorists.
However, they all turned down the requests, the source said.
“What was most painful was the fact that Nigeria was not begging to be given those weapons as gifts. We were ready to pay for them but they turned their backs on us when we needed them most.
“The same people who made all the promises about assisting us to bring an end to the Boko Haram attacks and bring back the abducted Chibok girls did everything they could to frustrate our efforts”, he added.
According to him, the scandal that broke out over the botched South African arms deals was the culmination of the worst that a frustrated sovereign nation could face.
Two attempts by foreign contractors engaged by the nation’s highest security authorities to buy arms from South Africa and Israel were stopped and over $24 million of Nigeria’s hard earned foreign exchange seized by South African authorities in two separate instances in that country.
It was learnt that though the funds were eventually released to Nigeria, the harm had been done and the purpose stopped mid-stream.
Sunday Vanguard learnt that when it became very clear that the nation’s long-standing traditional allies were not prepared to assist, Nigeria had to turn to Eastern Europe and Asia for weapons.
“A conclusion was reached that the nation would suffer more devastation should she continue to beg those we regarded as our friends when things were going on well with us. It was at that point that the nation had to look elsewhere, especially towards the East and Asia”, the source said.
Nigeria’s Ambassador to the US who died in Washington, last week, Prof Adebowale Adefuye, captured the mood of the then government and most Nigerians when he addressed the American Council on Foreign Relations, in November last year.
“The US government has up till today refused to grant Nigeria’s request to purchase lethal equipment that would have brought down the terrorists within a short time,’’ “We find it difficult to understand how and why, in spite of the US presence in Nigeria with their sophisticated military technology, Boko Haram should be expanding and becoming more deadly.
“There is no use giving us the type of support that enables us to deliver light jabs to the terrorists when what we need to give them is the killer punch. A friend in need is a friend indeed. The true test of friendship is in times of adversity,” he said.
America’s only excuse for refusing to sell the much-needed weapons to Nigeria was that Nigerian troops were reportedly not adhering to the fundamental human rights of the terrorists, in the prosecution of the Boko Haram war.
The security source who spoke with Vanguard said the alternative arms sources in Eastern Europe and Asia did not only receive Nigeria with open hands, “we also got other forms of ‘technical assistance’ as those who provided some of the equipment also entered into agreement with us to have some of their military personnel join our troops for the purposes of ensuring optimal performance of all the equipments.
“We didn’t want a situation where we would get to the war theatre and have any of the equipment breakdown without the expertise to promptly fix it”.
The source said that Some of the expatriates seen among the troops were with them to provide such requisite technical assistance. According to him, the successes recorded from the last months of Dr. Jonathan in office and the current onslaught against the terrorist were due mainly to the arrival of various equipments from countries other than Western nations that call themselves Nigeria’s traditional allies.
He observed that President Buhari’s panel would discover at the end of its sitting that it was not possible for the Jonathan administration to have reduced Boko Haram to the level it left it without having to bend backwards on several fronts to secure the right weapons and technical expertise. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/09/how-america-west-frustrated-jonathans-anti-boko-haram-war/
PoliticsI Am Not A Thief-FRCN DG by Buyeradvertcom(op): 11:30pm On Sep 05, 2015
The Director General of the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN), Dr Ladan Salihu, has denied a report carried by an online medium, alleging that he was indicted by a panel over allegations of embezzlement before his appointment as Director General by the Jonathan administration.
In a letter to the editor-in-chief of the online medium, Salihu demanded that the organisation made a full retraction of the offensive publication, publish an apology in Vanguard and four other newspapers and pay him N50 billion damages following “the defamatory and malicious publication which gravely injured” his reputation.
Counsel to the FRCN boss, Rickey Tarfa, SAN, signed the letter.
According to Tarfa, contrary to the allegation that Salihu relied on the influence of powerful individuals to become FRCN DG, he had “a blistering and brilliant career which stated in 1979 during which period he had at different times worked in Bauchi Radio Corporation, Nigeria Television Authority (NTA), Chief Press Secretary to the Military Governor of Bauchi State, National Broadcasting Commission where he rose to the position of a director and in fact became the pioneer Zonal Director, Kaduna”. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/09/i-am-not-a-thief-frcn-dg/

PoliticsIf Igbos Are Butchered Again Nigeria Will Disintegrate- Fani-kayode Warns by Buyeradvertcom(op): 9:28pm On Aug 17, 2015
ABUJA- FORMER Director of Publicity, Peoples Democratic Presidential Campaign Organisation, PDPPCO, Chief Femi Fani- Kayode Monday lampooned the Convener of the Coalition of Northern Politicians, Academics, Professionals and Businessmen, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, describing his comments that President Muhammadu Buhari owes Igbos nothing as most
most insensitive, cruel and Puerile.

Fani- Kayode
Responding to comments credited to Junaid, Fani- Kayode in a message to Vanguard noted that his statements that If the igbo feel marginalised they should attempt to break away again, was most uncharitable and careless, warning that if there was any attempt to butcher the Ibos or a repeat of what happened in 1966, it would be resisted by not only the Ibos, but by all Nigerians, with attempt to secede, which according to him, would be successful.
According to him, the like of Junaid must learn from history, our mistakes, preach peace and peaceful coexistence, rather that boast and beat our chests for yet another round of war.
Fani- Kayode reacting to a statement titled, ” If the igbo feel marginalised they should attempt to break away again”- Dr. Junaid Mohammed, The Punch Newspaper, 17th August 2015, said, “Given the immense suffering that the igbo were subjected to both before, during and after the civil war this is one of most insensitive, cruel and puerile comments that I have heard in recent times.
“I daresay that if Junaid Mohammed’s Nigeria ever butchers over 100,000 innocent igbo civilians again, as they did in the north in 1966 just before the civil war, there will indeed be another attempt to secede, but this time it will not only be successful, but they will also take many others with them.
“Rather than boast and beat our chests, we must learn from our history and we must never repeat its mistakes.”
Dr. Junaid Mohammed, had in an interview in one of the national dailies( not Vanguard) , dismissed the sentiments shared by a former Governor of Anambra State that the Igbo have not been treated fairly in the governance of Nigeria.
Junaid who noted that people of the Igbo nation have enjoyed favourable treatment, said it was wrong to reward the Igbo simply on the basis of the Nigerian Civil War, which lasted between 1967 and 1970.
Mohammed had said, “If it is about Buhari making the appointments based on merit, I have no problems with it. I don’t believe Buhari or Nigeria owes any Igbo anything. I don’t care what Ezeife says; if they had seceded, there would have been no Nigeria today. As people who acted outside the interest of Nigeria as a country, to expect compensation is a very odd logic.
“If the Igbo don’t like it, they can attempt secession again. If they do, they must be prepared to live with the consequences. Nobody owes them anything and nobody is out to compensate them for anything.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/08/if-igbos-are-butchered-again-nigeria-will-break-fani-kayode-warns/
PoliticsBuhari's TSA Directive Is Timely ( Opinion) by Buyeradvertcom(op): 9:16pm On Aug 17, 2015
For the first time in a long time in the country, government money is going to be in government bank – the Central Bank of Nigeria. That is how good the news can be. No more can heads of revenue generating Ministries, Departments and Agencies fix the revenues they generated in commercial banks’ high-interest-yielding deposit accounts. And with that, illegally earn money.

Also, imagine non-revenue generating MDAs, in copying their revenue generating counterparts, too place their budgetary allocations in multiple high-interest-yielding deposit accounts, and with that divert money meant for financing both capital and recurrent expenditures. And in doing so, not only are salaries and wages not paid but projects are either delayed or permanently abandoned.

Just imagine also how Section 22(1) of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2007, which allows revenue generating MDAs to remit only 80 per cent of the operating surplus to the Consolidated Revenue Fund. And by driving operating costs so high close to 100 per cent, which makes 80 per cent of their operating surplus close to nothing, to the extent that at the end of the year these MDAs remit nothing to the CRF. How bad will Nigerians feel on hearing that because of these lacunas and illegalities, government has been losing such mind-blowing revenues in their trillions of naira annually? For example, that between 2009 and 2012, government had N9.4tn not remitted.

What this means is that henceforth, the MDAs will no longer access public funds unless money from budgetary provisions. This is how it is supposed to be here in Nigeria as it is the case in modern economies around the world. This insistence on the Treasury Single Account means fiscal discipline, efficiency, and accountability, on the part of government. In fact, this blockage of government revenue diversion and looting using the TSA besides leading to the consolidation of government revenues, incomes, and receipts, will also lead to the optimal utilisation of government cash resources, including creative investment of public funds in the critical development sectors of the economy.

But with the TSA leading to the closure of about 10,000 multiple bank accounts operated by MDAs in commercial banks, banks will have to wake up from their slumber. This is because the era when government’s money is either lent back to government or invested in forex speculations is over. It also means that no longer at the Bankers’ Committee meetings should member banks demand that the CBN pursues their self-serving high interest rates to their benefits and those of heads of the MDAs who placed public money in their high-interest-yielding fixed deposit accounts. With the TSA, government can easily quarantine its revenues, with intended consequences including forcing interest rates to naturally nose-dive, since no serious business should be ready to borrow at such double digit rates when the economy is struggling at between four and five per cent.

The TSA is forcing banks to leave their comfort zone caused by dependence on government money to now become as creative and inventive as it is the case in modern economies around the world, which is to seek private deposits through investing in the real sector of the economy. In fact, with economic financialisation soon over, banks will discover that their survival is dependent on their embracement of fractional reserve banking, which is leaving a fraction of private depositors’ funds in reserve while using the main deposits to chase high profit-yielding investments.

This means that the era of economic diversification through industrialisation will soon begin. What this also means is that at the next Bankers’ Committee meeting, banks will insist that the CBN revisits its current cash reserve ratio on private deposits from 31 per cent to possibly zero per cent so that they can begin to attract more private deposits.

But for the TSA policy to be maximised, we need it to be accompanied with the Fiscal Snshine Bill, which if enacted will open up the financial activities of government in a way that there will be no more hiding place for those who divert or loot government money. For instance, with a Fiscal Sunshine Act in place, budgeting process and implementation, including contract awarding should be in the open for Nigerians to see both how revenues are generated and how public money is being spent by those in government, and why.

Posting government transactions online for millions of Nigerians anywhere in the world to see means that the time for backdoor contracts and procurements is finally over, especially with a Fiscal Sunshine Act insisting on conducting contracts in the open, including having them recorded and televised. And with spending public money outside appropriation made a serious criminal offence, attracting not less than 10 years in prison without an option of fine along with the repayment of the money, no doubt, Nigeria would have brought public corruption to a standstill.

Nigerians should applaud President Muhammadu Buhari for demonstration of leadership when on Sunday, August 9, 2015, he directed the MDAs to transfer all their multiple accounts with commercial banks to the TSA with immediate effect. For the first time, a presidential directive is being obeyed.

Reasons are that besides President Buhari’s straightforwardness, his determination to be fully in charge of his administration, which makes it difficult for the Office of the First Lady (which has been scrapped in his administration), presidential aides, and Nigeria’s notorious business barons to undermine his presidential directives for selfish gains, these MDAs have no option but to start complying.

One should wonder how come former President Goodluck Jonathan gave the same directive in January 2015 declaring February 28, 2015 the deadline but without much compliance. Unlike President Buhari’s uprightness, the former President, lacking in integrity associated with such exalted office of the president, no doubt, was ignored by heads of most MDAs, who were used to ignoring his presidential directives.

Besides, some powerful business barons always around the President were known to always stop any presidential directive if such could stand on the way of their business interest. All the barons could do to stop any presidential directive was to simply indicate that such a directive could endanger their business interest, which equally could jeopardise Jonathan’s chances of re-election. Once such a concern reached Jonathan-who was all out to win a second term-whatever was his earlier directive had to be immediately reversed. http://www.punchng.com/opinion/buharis-tsa-directive-is-timely/

PoliticsWorld Set For Another Cold War (editorial) by Buyeradvertcom(op): 11:14am On Jul 01, 2015
BY unfolding plans to add 40 more nuclear missiles to its arsenal last week, Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, erased any doubts that a new Cold War has emerged and the world had better take notice. Never since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990/91 have the world’s major powers come so close to the current state of mutual military provocations and the possibility of a conflagration. The threat is very real and the end result could be cataclysmic if cooler heads fail to douse the tension.

The current global tension is a culmination of the failed hopes that the end of communism and the half century of East-West confrontation that followed World War II would usher in a new era of peace and cooperation. That hope was shattered; first, by the 1990 Iraqi invasion of Kuwait and the United States-led multinational counter-invasion to expel the invaders; and, second, by the rise of a new type of terrorism in which fanatics, subscribing to the salafi vision of the creation of a global Islamic caliphate, launched jihads against governments, primarily the US and the West, initiating a new form of asymmetric warfare. But while terrorism initially attracted global unity of purpose in combating, re-emergent powers like Russia and China recently began to challenge the uni-polar global order and this has pitted them against the US and its Western and Asian allies. It has revived super-power rivalry and heightened tension in a world grappling with violence and terrorism, economic meltdown, climate change and traumatic change in emerging economies.

Putin especially, continues to up the ante. He said the 40 new nuclear-armed Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles would be ready this year and “are able to overcome even the most technically advanced anti-missile defence system.” This is a direct response to America’s deployment of defensive systems to its European allies in the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation, some of whom are threatened by menacing Russian military manoeuvres on their borders.

Putin, after serially opposing Western initiatives everywhere, had annexed the Ukrainian territory of Crimea in March 2014 and immediately provoked Western sanctions. Since then, global tension has reached a new high and ignited a new arms race, which bodes ill for world peace.
European countries have asked NATO allies for closer military cooperation and begun a frantic effort to rearm. Poland, which has suffered annexation by Russia throughout its history, asked for and received the US and NATO military units and equipment, including Patriot Anti-Missile batteries and fighter aircraft. The Baltic States – Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia, who only regained their independence from the collapsing Soviet Union 24 years ago – have also requested NATO assistance, re-introduced military conscription and begun defensive drills against possible invasion.

NATO said it intercepted over 400 Russian flights in 2014 alone and a military jet came within 10 feet of an American military plane near the Black Sea last month. Just as a move by Ukraine to join NATO provoked Russia’s annexation of Crimea and its sponsorship of a civil war there, Putin has also threatened Sweden if it heeds calls to join the alliance.

Can the world afford a new cold war? The answer is, no! The first cold war emerged after World War II when the communist Soviet Union carved out a sphere of influence in Europe and elsewhere. It was marked by political and military tension between the two blocs – Western and Eastern – and featured an arms race, proxy wars across the world, espionage, propaganda and technological competition, including a space race. Most dangerously, the era led to the accumulation of nuclear weapons and ICBMs, fostering the concept of deterrence and Mutually Assured Destruction: meaning that each power exercised restraint as they had enough to destroy each other in any nuclear war.

According to the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, there are about 16,300 nuclear missiles in the world operated by 14 countries with roughly 10,000 in military arsenals. The rest are in storage or scheduled for disarmament and 4,000 are “operationally available,” of which 1,800 are on “high alert,” ready to be launched at short notice. The US is said to have 7,100 of which 2,080 are deployed; Russia over 8,000; United Kingdom 215; France 300, and China estimated at between 240 and 540. Hostility among the major powers also allows less stable Pakistan (120) and India (110) to have them as evident in a lack of unanimity at the United Nations Security Council’s efforts to curb Iran’s and North Korea’s nuclear ambitions.

Instead of spending on alleviating poverty, disease and crime, countries spent $1.75 trillion or 2.5 per cent of global GDP on the military in 2012, according to the Stockholm International Peace Institute, whereas 1 billion children live in poverty. Even “pacifist” nations like Japan, Germany and Sweden have, in response to rising tensions, raised military spending. While the US remains the highest defence spender, China spent (officially) $129 billion in 2014 and Russia $70 billion.

The world powers should pull back from the brink. The NATO response of deploying weapons, soldiers and joint military exercises in Europe and the South Asia has not deterred Putin or China, which has also been upsetting the existing order and its neighbours by territorial claims and military provocations in the South China Sea.

Putin should be told that he cannot recreate the Soviet empire by force. Countries are great today mostly by economic power, not brute force. The US and its allies should strike a careful balance of political and military pressure while making it clear that it will fulfil its treaty obligations if any NATO member is attacked.

The five permanent members of the Security Council, who have weakened the UN’s authority by brazen disregard for its resolutions and abuse of their veto, should rebuild the global body and re-empower it to become an effective arbiter in world affairs.
China and Russia should curb their ambitions and work more for global peace and prosperity rather than instinctively antagonising neighbours and rivals. http://www.punchng.com/editorials/world-close-to-a-new-cold-war/
Science/TechnologyScientist Use DNA To Contruct Human Face by Buyeradvertcom(op): 3:52pm On Jun 18, 2015
It sounds like science fiction. But revealing the face of a criminal based on their genes may be closer than we think.
Today scientists are using genetic markers from DNA to build up a picture of an offender's face, a process known as molecular photo fitting.
A DNA profile is only useful to detectives if a match can be found on a database.
As surgeon Gabriel Weston explains in the BBC series Catching History's Criminals: The Forensics Story, this technology offers the tantalising prospect of generating a face from nothing more than a few cells.
To find out just how effective this process can be, DNA was extracted from Gabriel's saliva and the results sent anonymously to a group of scientists in Belgium.
From that data they set about building a picture of Gabriel's face - as predicted by her genes. The question was: Would it look anything like her?
The job of turning the cells in her saliva into a picture of her face was carried out by Dr Peter Claes, a medical imaging specialist at the University of Leuven.
Along with colleagues in the US, he's built up a database of faces and DNA. And armed with this information, he's able to model how a face is constructed based on just 20 genes.
It is possible to judge just how much the picture of Gabriel's face - based on her genetic makeup - looks like her by comparing it to her actual image.

Gabriel's DNA results were sent anonymously to a team of scientists in Belgium
Dr Claes believes it contains a lot of information that would be useful to detectives: "I can tell you that your eyebrows are sticking forward more, and your chin as well," he explains.
"You have a very prominent specific chin compared to an average European, which in my eyes is not a bad result. You do tend to have flat cheeks, but of course that's a tricky area to actually predict accurately because it's heavily based on diet, which is an environmental factor."
If this predicted face is superimposed over a photo of Gabriel, the accuracy of the technique is revealed.
The eyes, nose, mouth and chin are all in roughly the right place. But the features are more rounded than in reality.

Scientists were able to compare the faces when they were superimposed
At the moment, police couldn't publish a molecular photo-fit like this and hope to catch a killer. But that's not how Dr Claes sees the technique being used in a criminal investigation.
"If I were to bring this result to an investigator, I wouldn't necessarily give him the image to broadcast. I would talk to him and say okay, you're looking for a woman, with a very specific chin and eyebrow structure.
"So if you're having suspects or candidates that you're looking for, just focus on those."
This may be new science, but Dr Claes and his colleagues are rapidly developing the technology.
The number of genes used is being expanded from 20 to 200, and is seems clear that molecular photo-fitting is only going to become more accurate in the coming years. http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-33054762
BusinessOverbilling: NERC Orders Power Firm To Refund Consumers by Buyeradvertcom(op): 4:29pm On Jun 17, 2015
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission has ordered the Abuja Electricity Distribution Company to refund consumers for overbilling them within the months of October to December, 2014.

In an order signed by the Chairman of NERC, Dr. Sam Amadi, and the Commissioner, Legal and Enforcement, Dr. Steven Andzenge, the commission said the refund should be in the form of energy credit.

Amadi said all the affected customers must be informed in writing by the electricity distribution company advising them on the energy credits, accruing to them as a result of the overbilling that occurred when the company implemented the modified estimated billing methodology without the approval of the regulator.

He said, “The AEDC shall, with immediate effect from the date of this order, commence the refund through energy credit, of all excess charges billed its customers as a direct consequence of the adjustments resulting from the application of the modified estimated billing methodology applied to all customers in their business units for the period of October, November and December 2014.

“The AEDC shall within five days of this order and in writing advice all affected customers in accordance with Regulation 9(7) of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission’s Meter Reading, Billing, Cash Collections and Credit Management for Electricity Suppliers Regulations, 2007.”

He added, “The AEDC shall within one month of this order publish in a newspaper with wide circulation within its distribution area, an apology to all affected customers stating their business units for the excess charges billed.

“Following the steps in one to three, the AEDC shall within two months of the order submit a report to the committee on the level of compliance with the orders in one to three providing specific data on the total number of customers affected and the amount refunded in each business unit.”

NERC had on April 16 written the distribution company to show cause why it should not be sanctioned for violating several sections of the of the electricity law.

According to NERC, the reply of the AEDC to the query was not satisfactory; thus the sanction dished out by the regulatory agency. http://www.punchng.com/business/business-economy/overbilling-nerc-orders-power-firm-to-refund-consumers/
Crime12 Die, 40 Injured In Maiduguri As Picked Explosive Device Detonates Accidentaly by Buyeradvertcom(op): 3:47pm On Jun 17, 2015
At least 12 people were killed and 40 others injured in northeast Nigeria when an explosive device detonated, civilian vigilantes helping the military against Boko Haram told newsmen on Wednesday. The device was picked up by one of the vigilantes as they travelled back to the Borno state town of Monguno from a military operation against the Islamists in Marte, 40 kilometres (26 miles) away.

“We lost 12 members in the accidental explosion, which also injured 40 others,” vigilante leader Abdullahi Amadu Bukar told pressmen from the Borno state capital, Maiduguri. “We have brought seven of the dead to Maiduguri this morning (Wednesday) and left five others behind in Monguno.”

The vigilantes had been fighting the insurgents alongside troops in Marte when one of them picked up the explosive device and brought it back to Monguno. It exploded late on Tuesday as the civilian fighters were examining it on the outskirts of the town, said Bukar, whose account was backed up by another vigilante, Awwal Ibrahim.

Nigeria’s military claimed to have liberated Marte and Monguno in February after a ground and air campaign but Bukar said the insurgents had returned to Marte once troops withdrew. Elsewhere, a military truck accompanying technicians from a Nigerian power company to make repairs in the Damboa district of Borno on Monday hit a roadside bomb believed to have planted by the rebels.

Three soldiers were killed in the blast, forcing the team to abandon the mission and returned to Maiduguri, 86 kilometres away, according to local vigilante sources‎. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/06/12-die-40-injured-in-maiduguri-as-picked-explosive-device-detonates-accidentally/
