You have not heard that new leader of MASSOB is an Ikwerre man. So now you and you fake SS identity should go and die

Membership of criminal organisation is not restricted to any particular tribe.

Maybe the new Ikwerre leader of your hypnotised massob robbery gang understands the gullibility of the ibos, and just realised that anybody can use and manipulate you people.
So he decided to join massob and lead you to your heavy loss and destruction.

What is in Biafra that anyone should be afraid of?

Biafra is a gathering of thieves, bank robbers (ojuku robbed cbn Benin during the civil war), jesters and fraudster that can only elicit ridicule.

You're all pained losers.

EasternPride:
Please army should do well and shoot them, I don't want miscreants disturbing our peace, if you don't do them IPOB peaceful protesters treatment, then God in heaven will commit all you trigger happy officers to early death. Amen.

They are protesting against poor (or lack of) electricity supply. No for secession.

The East cannot be proud of crackpots like you.

Vikky014:
WE ARE TIRED OF THIS LINE CAN U COME UP WITH ANODA ONE because IT IS NT YIELDING ANY RESULT. MAYB TELL US THAT BOKOHARAM are Christians that believ in JESUS christ as their LORD and Saviour we will b Glad u did

You dey mind them? Coming up with stale lines that defy logic.
The realities on ground are incontrovertible. By their fruits we have known them.

yomexp:
imagine this guy was having a swell time with a w.h.o.r.e while some brain dead ipads were getting shot at. smh.... or more or less being used at target practice.

Anybody can use the (biafra) ibos.
They're too gullible.

Keep looking for who to blame for your comprehension deficiencies.

asadike:
pls what's lai muhammed doing in lagos? he should relocate to sambisa forest immediately. his attention is seriously needed.

Lai Mohammed is the minister of information & culture. Not defence.

You TANoids are as dumb as GEJ and Fayose.

PentiumPro:
Their nemesis Awolowo simply changed the Nigeria currency to make Ojukwu loot worthless piece of papers. Truly the Biafrans have several reason to be mad eith Yorubas and Awolowo they simply without shooting a gun decimated the Biafran state.

I tell yah

As it was in the days of Ojuku the thief, these biafridiots will always be outwitted and checkmated in all their dumb steps.
The goats that want to steal our yams cannot be too smart.

Ogbuefi2020:
Lol, South south itself is fake and a divide a rule product of the FUlani

Leave us to enjoy our diversity and resources. We dont want to be clogged into your suffocating Biafra.

Biafrauds ultimate dream is to steal from the SS. Ojukwu robbed the CBN branch in Benin during his failed enchroachment into our land.

Your lives always revolve around greed, coveteousness and daylight robbery of what belong to others.

Bevista:
I find the talk of a Referendum in my State utterly insulting and disgusting. Maybe the Yorubas should go to Anambra state to conduct a Referendum whether they would love be part of Oduduwa Nation.
The stupidity being peddled by your rogue leaders in the media is difficult to fathom.

No mind the biafridiot troll
To compound his idiocy, he was busy spamming the thread with reference to his moniker.

Na Scots wan conduct referendum for SouthSouth?

rhukky01:
he is very right...Ss can neva b a part of biafra...d ealier u guys realize dat d beta 4 u..

Be blessed, my friend! The wisdom is in you

Have an impactful 2016.

Vulu:
THEY'LL LOCK IT WHEN THEY LOSE THE THREAD TO PRO-BIAFRANS AND COMMON SENSE.

Pro-biafrauds and commonsense are like day and night. They cannot be common attributes in the same entity.

Worse still, Biafrauds live a fact-free existence.

This people with dia trademark victim mentality. They need to get cured of it.

Vulu:
IDOMA HAS THE LARGEST OYEL RESERVE IN THE WORLD THAT'S WHY BIAFRA INCLUDED THEM IN THEIR MAP.

Let the idomas worry about this idiotic sarcasm that you spew on every thread you troll on. I don't give a dog's foot about them.

If you and your teachers hadn't failed in learning and teaching history, you would've recalled that the first thing ojukwu and his Biafra bandits did as soon as they got to Benin was to Rob the central bank branch in the city.

Biafrauds have always been thieves. And armed robbers...only interested in stealing our S/S lands and other resources.

Good. We the south-southerners will vigorously drum this into their blockheads.

Biafrauds should take their greasy, snuff-congested noses off our region and its resources.

Unfortunately for you, no matter the degree of anger borne out of your islamic intolerance and your proclivity to violence, there is nothing you can do.

I'll just get you piqued and leave you to blow yourself up out of frustration.

You have to deal with the truth that you hate to know.

samazeezat:
You are such a daft. infact, you lack prerequisite to comment on this issue. you are nothing but a religion bigot

owolabiza:
U are very unserious for blackmailing the Muslims. ..pls be very careful before ranting rubbish on social media.
how would u think like a goat?

bloodykiller:
all na the same muslim is muslim

Thank you my brother.

Make Dem go deceive almajiri for sokoto. Not on nairaland.

Why are they killing their own?
Will it change their Muslim identity or their Islamic root?

As much as I condemn all attacks on any gathering of people, bombing a few mosques does not change the fact that terrorism is the moslem jihad against civilisation & humanity.

brunofarad:
KUDOS TO OUR GALlaNT MEN

God grant them total victory over the enemies of Nigeria.

Liar!

I bet their actual roles will be restricted to electoral rigging strategies.

Wike the drowning man.

What can I say
This guy and his state has been in the news consistently for the wrong reasons for over a year now.
Good to know that some work is actually going on there.

God bless (the State of) Osun.

Can Boko Haram survive without territory?
By Andrew Walker

Earlier in 2015, while I was researching a book on the history of the Nigerian militant Islamist sect known as Boko Haram, an anthropologist told me something that has stayed with me. What he said has informed the way I read the news coming out of the continuing battle between the sect and the Nigerian state.

Gerhard Müller-Kosack has spent years studying a group of people who live in Nigeria’s mountainous northeastern border region with Cameroon. He told me that for the people who live there, the modern, independent, post-colonial state has “never been more than a rumor.” This phrase has become a persistent earworm, nagging at me as I’ve watched developments unfold over the last few weeks.

On the surface, things appear to have been going well for the Nigerian military, at least compared to twelve months ago. At the beginning of 2015, large areas of northeastern Nigeria were under the insurgents’ control. Throughout 2014, the military appeared powerless to stop Boko Haram as the group transmogrified from hidden guerrilla fighters into a roving army of bandits. The militants swept out of the bush in large convoys to descend on towns, stripping them of what they needed, be it fuel, food, cash or women who they took captive.

Boko Haram even routed the military forces of Africa’s most populous nation from the garrison town of Gwoza, on the plains below the Mandara Mountains. Video clips of the attack shot by the insurgents and posted on the Internet show Nigerian soldiers running away into the hills. You see them drop to the ground as the jeering young men pick them off. The footage also shows young Boko Haram fighters looting the armory, their eyes flashing with joy as they hold aloft boxes of ammunition and weapons.

Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau gloated over the insurgents’ victory. It had been granted them because of Allah’s blessing, he said. He declared an Islamic state had been created in Nigeria. The army’s defeat represented a low point for the country, recently named as Africa’s largest economy. Exactly how negligible the military’s capacity to fight a domestic insurgency had been painfully revealed. For years, government and senior officers have been using the army as a way of extracting patronage from the state. Officers were not so much soldiers as investors in an institution focussed on the proceeds of corruption. This stripped the army of its effectiveness. Poorly motivated recruits were badly equipped and badly led. It took the military seven months to retake Gwoza. But in the time since, they have chased the militants out of large parts of the territory Shekau once declared as an Islamic state in Nigeria.

This roll-back of Boko Haram is at least partly because of a change in political leadership.

At the swearing-in ceremony of Nigeria’s newly elected president Muhammadu Buhari in August, the retired general and former military head of state vowed to “eliminate” Boko Haram by Christmas. He has shaken up the upper ranks of the military in an attempt to get better leadership where it is needed. Capitalizing on momentum that had begun before Buhari’s election, with the help of mercenaries from South Africa, the military has been able to push Boko Haram out of the plains—territory that, by the normal rules of guerrilla insurgency, they should not have been able to hold anyway.

But as people who have been watching this group for a while know, Boko Haram has been on the back foot before. In the past, the group has proven it can adapt. In 2009, the Nigerian militant group was on the run. Its leader at the time, Mohammed Yusuf, had been killed in Maiduguri and its members scattered. Some of the group, whose nickname means “Western education is forbidden” in the local Hausa language, found refuge in the Mandara Mountains, a thickly forested mountain range near the border with Cameroon.

Among the cave warrens and hidden ravines the fighters found a perfect place to escape the aftermath of the government crackdown. It was in places like this that they grew in strength and were able to plot a tightly orchestrated campaign of terror. As they emerged from their hiding places between 2010 and 2013, they continually changed tactics, staying ahead of the military and the police.

It seemed there would be a rash of attacks on a particular kind of target. Then, after a time, a different kind of attack, executed in various places across northeast Nigeria within a short space of time. Boko Haram shifted between bombings and coordinated gun attacks. It frequently changed its targets, attacking churches, mosques, media institutions, cellphone towers and schools. In 2013, it branched out into kidnapping.

The Mandara Mountains is just one of many ungoverned spaces from which Boko Haram has drawn strength. The border region with Niger and the islands in Lake Chad are two other areas where Boko Haram exploits the lack of any form of state power. The militants dart across the border to escape fighting and control cross-border smuggling routes to generate funds.

Nigeria and its neighbors—Cameroon, Chad and Niger—are supposed to be cooperating in a multinational task force. But none of these nations seem eager to work effectively with each other. Trust is thin on the ground.

Following the military’s gains this year, Boko Haram insurgents have simply reverted to being hidden guerrillas. In the past few weeks, teenage female suicide bombers have struck in several places. In one 48-hour period they hit two cities, 350 miles apart. The first attack was on the city of Yola, where at least 30 people were killed. The second targeted a market in Kano, killing 11. Both cities are outside the territory that Boko Haram held.

Boko Haram may control less territory than it did 12 months ago, but thanks to the insubstantial reach of the Nigerian state across that territory, the insurgents’ capacity to kill is undiminished.

Just a rhethorical question for the Professor ........

[size=18pt]Is the Pope catholic? [/size]

He knows the answer - every rational human does.











But he will give you a feel-good NO

The reforms and rebranding of Islam should take place in your mosques and be reflected in your literatures. Not on the media.

While you're saying this on TV and being delusional on social media, bombs are being detonated by moslem terrorists in Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Nigeria and many other places around the world.

Whose report do you think people will believe? Actions speak louder than words. And by their fruits, we shall know them.
