unapologetic: Alloy Ikechukwu, a traveller from Lagos to Maiduguri, told journalists on Friday that he was lucky to survive the attack. He said a luxurious bus conveying him and several other passengers was passing through Mainok when the insurgents attacked the market.
“We boarded a luxury bus from Lagos and as soon as we arrived Mainok at exactly 1.30 p.m., we heard heavy gunshot from the western part of the market and sporadic gunshots followed,” Mr. Ikechukwu said. “Hundreds of traders and residents fled the market in confusion, running to cross the highway to the other side while vehicles passing through the town were also making attempts to flee the town. It was such confusion.”
Mr. Chukwu said he saw many of the fleeing residents hit by vehicles speeding off from the area.
“Vehicles were hitting one another and the Boko Haram kept shooting,” he added.

Acelifted: Hi Nairalanders
My birth certificate has been missing for sometime. I have been using a sworn affidavit (declaration of age). Now I really need a genuine Birth Certificate for something (they will not accept the sworn affidavit). But I don't know where and how to go about this. Please any information on which office to visit and the processes involved will be appreciated.
Thank you.

hardywaltz: Was that all u saw in the whole of the post.

Even a Lion retreats sometimes to replan it's strategy.

hardywaltz: Amaechi chased Ateke Tom out of Okuchiri Shrine in December 2007 and arrested the traditional ruler of Okirika and threw him in prison. Infact if Ateke Tom was not tipped of by the then Commissioner of Police (Who sadly is the current IG of Police) that Amaechi was coming, Ateke would have been a dead rat by now.

The Amnesty programme started in 2009 and most militants surrendered their arms to the State Governments/Commissioner of Police, only Ateke Tom surrendered his arms to Yaradua in a much publicized meeting.

Reduce ur hatred for Amaechi that man is indeed a fearless Lion.

The Nigeria Police Force has announced the removal of the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Frank Mba as the Force Public Relations Officer.

Mba is being replaced by Emmanuel Ojukwu.

The announcement was made on Thursday in a statement issued by the Deputy Force Public Relations Officer, Abayomi Shogunle.

According to the statement, the former spokesman for the police has been redeployed in Lagos State Command as an Area Commander, Area J.

Mba was the Force Public Relations Officer from February 2012 to August, 2014.

About the new spokesman for the police, the statement read in part, “Until his new assignment, DCP Emmanuel Ojukwu, who is a seasoned and thoroughbred officer, was the Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of Criminal Investigations Department at Zone 7 Headquarters, Abuja.

“The new spokesman is stepping into a familiar terrain, having distinguished himself as the Force PRO from December 2008 to October 2010. He holds BSc degree in Psychology (First Class Hons) from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka and MSc in Psychology from the University of Lagos. He is a member of Nigeria Institute of Public Relations (NIPR), Chairman Association of Nigerian Authors, Abuja, President of the University of Nigeria Alumni Association, Abuja.”

In a brief handover ceremony at the Force Public Relations Department, Mba thanked the acting Inspector-General of Police, Suleiman Abba for the new assignment given to him and urged the media and the public to extend “maximum cooperation” to the new spokesman.

Responding, the new spokesman promised to work to “increase the tempo of good relationship between the Police and the public in line with the policy thrust of the Nigeria Police Force.”

Ojukwu also called on members of the public and the media to grant the same level of goodwill and cooperation necessary for his success in the new office.

FlyboyZee: I used to think the Registrar of the State's High Court is usually the next in line for the Chief Judge of the State. Mind you the Registrar is usually a highly placed Judge. Someone should correct me if I am wrong, I ain't no legal guy you know? #Winks.

Luvlydevin: The 62-year-old Atilade, who was the state’s Head Judge until her new appointment, will for the next three years oversee the administration of the Lagos State judiciary.

The truth is always bitter.


Nope in December 2007 The Lion called Amaechi led JTF to storm the dreaded okuchiri shrine and chased Ateke Tom out of Okirika where the coward fled to Delta State and was living with that old Fo0l Edwin Clark before he relocated to Camp 5 to join his fellow evil twin Tompolo.
When camp 5 was bombarded by federal forces Ateke took refuge once again in Clarks residence before surrendering to Yaradua in Abuja on the last day of Amnesty saying he would rather die than surrender to the fearless Lion called Amaechi.
Hope this refreshes ur memory card.
