Barring any last minute change in plan, President Muhammadu Buhari is expected back in Nigeria on Sunday after his 10-day vacation in London, United Kingdom.

A competent source in the presidency confirmed to our correspondent on Friday that top government officials are expected to receive the President at the Presidential Wing of the Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport, Abuja.

“There are no indications yet that he will not be back on Sunday. If he will not return, he would have communicated that to the National Assembly. Since he has not done that, then he is expected back,” the source said.

Our correspondent had reported that workers of Julius Berger, saddled with the responsibility of maintaining the Presidential Villa, were seen re-painting the outer wall of the President’s office on Friday.

It could, however, not be confirmed at the time of filing this report if the re-painting had anything to do with Buhari’s imminent return.

Buhari had penultimate Thursday departed Nigeria for London for a 10-day vacation and is expected to resume work on Monday, February 6.

He had informed the lawmakers that Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo would be performing the duties of the President in acting capacity while he would be away.

This is the third time Buhari would embark on vacation in one year.

He had earlier embarked on a six-day vacation between February 5 and 10, 2016 in London.

He had also embarked on another 10-day vacation on June 6, 2016 to treat an ear infection.

World war 3 already started the moment russia intervened in syria, even ukraine sef. The americans percieve russia as their arch enemy, china is not even up to that level yet, but in the case of a full blownout war, i wuld bet china would refrain from the fight at the onset waiting for the US and Russia to wear themslvs out so that it would av an upper ground to make agreements with any of the warring factions, besides, china would also be watchful of japan in the course of the war so as to subdue USA. The philipines are just pawns and blv me, the would rather remain neutral than joining anyside. North korea would invade the south, iran would attack isreal(which would be a failure). Europe would become confused, except UK which would support US course in the war. All these are already set backstage, na just to make announcement make the show start remain.

Stale propaganda. As much as I wholeheartedly condemn FG's highhandedness in handling this issue, I must say that the movement had committed many heinous crimes in Kaduna before the payback of last year December. We cannot forget their various crimes and impunity... (Google is your friend.) However the FG must backtrack top, for peace to reign.

Saudi Arabian authorities have refused to grant over-flight permits to Nigerian cargo planes carrying military equipment including armoured tanks from Pakistan which Nigerian authorities have procured in order to fight the Boko Haram rebel group, media reported Monday.

It may be recalled that IANS, quoting Pakistani officials in Abuja early this year, reported that Pakistan has pledged to support Nigeria in its fight against the Boko Haram.

ThisDay newspaper reported Monday it had been informed by the country’s intelligence sources that the decision by the Saudi authorities was certain to cause a diplomatic row at a time when President Goodluck Jonathan was eager to end the insurgency in the country’s northeast before the 2015 general election due to be held in February.

President Jonathan, the newspaper said, has “given the green light to the military authorities to procure arms from alternative sources such as Pakistan and Russia other than Nigeria’s traditional allies led by the United States of America, United Kingdom and France”.

It said this was because of Nigeria’s displeasure with the US after the country blocked the sale of American-manufactured Cobra attack helicopters from Israel.

“With the position of the West, Nigeria decided to turn to the East, chiefly Pakistan, from which the federal government was able to procure a huge cache of military hardware needed to prosecute the war against Boko Haram,” ThisDay said.

“We got permission to fly through Sudan and other countries but have been blocked by Saudi Arabia, which has impeded the urgency of the operation,” the newspaper claimed it had been told by intelligence sources in the country, adding that, “owing to Saudi Arabia’s refusal, the only alternative is for Nigeria to ship the armament by sea, but using this as an option would take much longer”.

[size=15pt]Unfortunately, intelligence sources told the paper, “if we resort to shipping the arms via the high seas, they would reach us well after the election which may be too late for the desired impact, especially now that we have the insurgents on the run”.[/size]

ThisDay claimed that when its reporters drew religious undertones in the Saudi authorities’ refusal to grant the flight permits, their sources said they were not certain “but would not rule it out.”

“Nigeria has always had close ties with Saudi Arabia, but with a war that has a religious slant, we may not be able to rule it out. But what I can say for certain is that this would lead to diplomatic tensions between both countries,” the paper quoted intelligence sources as saying

[size=14pt]Snakes cause panic in Bayelsa[/size]
Sudden appearances of snakes especially Cobras on streets and homes in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital is creating panic among residents.

Some persons attributed the development to consistent rainfalls and floods experienced in many parts of the capital city.

Others, however, said the underdeveloped nature of Yenagoa which has bushes, unkempt canals and many undeveloped plots of land provide safe haven for snakes and reptiles.

Our source said during the search, documents linking Mr. Ngwuta or Okoro to estates worth over N1.5 billion were recovered.

At the residence of Mr. Ademola, the SSS recovered at least $400, 000 and N39 million in cash, in addition to documents of landed properties belonging to the federal judge.

The raid at Justice Mohammed Liman’s residence in Port Harcourt, our sources said, was ordered to allow operatives search the house because he was believed to be in possession of $2 million.

Jayceo:
Firstly , a good Morning to you My brother
I admire the matured way in which you put down your response.Articulate and Straight to the point without any intent of hitting a nerve. It shows I am conversing with an individual of intellect.


If you took note of all my suggestions you would see my solutions transcend just "mere condemning" .


You put down as i quote "What on earth do we think asking the muslims to condemn it will bring" , I ask you my brother (limiting this to Nigeria) ,if the Sultan of Sokoto , Emir Of Kano and other high ranking leaders(Either Spiritual or Political) in these regions come together and initiate a public conference for all the people who practise this faith in their regions and carefully re-orientate the minds of the people. Show the people this is something they greatly frown on and something God doesn't favour , do you think it would make some form of impact?


Do you know the Governor of Zamfara said "anyone who desecrates the quran would be dealt with" around 3 weeks and now see what happened on Monday. This is what I mean by Re-orienting their perspective by people they look up to. Its way above just putting words in the paper by them to say we "condenm" it. Programs should be initiated to address this.


Furthermore , it would also go a long way if the pepetrators of this evil are sanctioned publicly by leaders in the faith. I have never seen when Sharia law or any form of punishment is metted out by these spiritual leaders to the pepetrators in order to use them as an example to others.
I hear of thiefs with theirs hands cut and women beaten for other offences but I don't hear of this hooligans that do this being dealt with before being handed over to the police. We cannot deny the community knows the people who do this. I served in the north and was opportuned to see a scenario where serious religious fanatics carried out a deadly attack. The more we keep sugar coating that its not a religious problem the more we keep moving away from reality.


Lastly, you put down that terrorism is a world problem(this I agree) , but the one that didn't go down well with me is you indicating it isn't limited to any religion, Due to recent happenings it seems the culprits of these terrorist happenings all practice one religion and quote verses from its holy book to carry out their killings. Lets face this task head on, let the Moslem community take this task as a priority, it is denting the image of Islam. As i said the world is taking note.

Jayceo:
The Sad thing about this is that there are truly well refined , educated ,forward thinking Individuals of Moslem faith who do not believe things should go this way. But what efforts are they putting in place to stop this menace, it might interest you to know that not all Germans were in support of the Nazi movement but guess what, they folded their hands and watched until it got out of hands. It is a bad precedence that out of the thousands of Religions in the world only one Religion Of "Peace" is really being "Peaceful".
