Officials say alleged gunman among
13 dead was a former military
serviceman, as police search for
'person of interest'.
US authorities probing the shooting
spree at Washington's Navy Yard,
which left 13 people dead and eight
injured, have said that a lone
gunman carried out the killings.
Authorities said military
contractor Aaron Alexis, 34, of Texas,
launched the attack on Monday
inside a building at the US Navy
complex, spraying gunfire on office
workers in the cafeteria and in the
hallway at the heavily secured
installation.
Investigators said hours earlier they
were searching for two suspects and
urged Washington residents to stay
in
place until the search ended.
However, Washington mayor
Vincent Gray said on Tuesday there
was no evidence nor indication that
there was
another shooter, "even though we
haven't completely ruled that out".
Police chief Cathy Lanier stressed
that investigators now felt
comfortable that they had the sole
person responsible for the loss of life
inside of the base.
Lanier said that the "shelter-in-place"
warning to residents had been lifted
as the authorities were satisfied
there were no suspects on the loose.
'Another mass shooting'
Alexis was an employee of a
company called "The Experts," a
subcontractor for an HP Enterprise
Services military contract, Hewlett-
Packard said.
HP said the contract was "to refresh
equipment used on the Navy Marine
Corps Intranet (NMCI) network."
The FBI said Alexis used a valid pass
to get on the Washington base.
President Barack Obama mourned
what he called "yet another mass
shooting'' in the US, as the Senate
was locked down, a Major League
Baseball game postponed and a
White House celebration delayed
following Monday's shooting.
"It's a shooting that targeted our
military and civilian personnel,"
Obama said.
"They were patriots and they know
the dangers of serving abroad, but
today they face the unimaginable
violence that they wouldn't have
expected here at home."
Misconduct pattern
Alexis served as a Navy reservist
from 2007 to early 2011. The FBI
released a photo of Alexis, who held
the rank of an Aviation Electrician's
Mate 3rd Class and had served full-
time in a logistics support squadron
in Forth Worth, according to the
Navy.
"There is definitely a pattern of
misconduct during his service," said
a US military officer, who spoke on
condition of anonymity.
Police in Seattle said Alexis was
arrested there in 2004 for shooting
out the tires of another man's
vehicle in what he described to
detectives as an anger-fueled
"blackout.''
Alexis reportedly had expressed an
interest in Buddhism, friends told
local media in Texas, while his four-
year stint in the Navy was troubled.
Thousands of employees were
initially told to stay inside the
complex while multiple SWAT
teams searched for the shooters

Nobody forced me to accept Islam, convert insists Category: Cover stories Published on
Saturday, 27 July 2013 06:02 Written by Aliyu M. Hamagam, Minna Hits: 749 The
conversion to Islam of 25-year- old Charity Uzoechina, daughter of Pastor Raymond
Uzoechina of Redeem Christian Church of God, Kwankwashe, Suleja, continues to
generate controversy. Her father accused the Estu Nupe Alhaji Yahaya Abubukar, of
hypnotizing his daughter, who has since changed her name to A’isha, to embrace Islam. A’isha, who hails from Asaba, Delta State, came to Abuja at the age of 10 when her
father relocated from Lagos. After her secondary school education at Army Day
Secondary School Asokoro, Abuja she got admission into Federal Polytechnic, Bida to
read Public Administration. She, however, withdrew from the course in her first year.
She embraced Islam on February 15, 2013. A’isha said since her family relocated to
Suleja, Niger State, she has been in the midst of Muslims, which accorded her the opportunity to have several Muslims friends and learnt a lot about Islam. The travails
of A’isha began when she ran to the Estu Nupe’s palace in Bida on March 1, this year to
seek protection against any aggression she may face should her family know about her
conversion to Islam. This led to a controversy that is still ongoing, with her father
accusing the traditional ruler of kidnapping his daughter. Along the line, several
meetings were organized between A’isha and her father Pastor Uzoechina and his daughter at the instance of the Estu Nupe, who also involved some members of the
Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). But despite that, A’isha refused to follow her
father, alleging that he has threatened to deal with her by taking her away to a place
that she will not be able to practice her new religion. A’isha has taken the matter to a
Shariah court in Bida and the court is expected to rule on August 1, 2013 whether or
not the 25-year-old should be released to her parents or not. She speaks exclusively to Weekly Trust. Excerpts: Weekly Trust: What is your name?
Aisha Uzoechina: I was formerly known as Charity Uzoechina and now A’isha
Uzoechina. Why the change of name? I changed my name because I have accepted
Islam. What brought you to Bida? I came to Bida in 2012 to read Public Administration
at the Federal Polytechnic, Bida. Are you still a student of Federal Polytechnic Bida? No, I
am not. I have withdrawn from the school. Did you go back home? No, I did not go home. At the beginning I was planning to go back home, because I wanted to tell my
father that I have converted to Islam. When I converted, I was afraid to tell my parents,
because of the way my father would behave. I know he will not take it lightly with me.
So, for that I refused to go back home. Did anybody force or enticed you to join Islam? I
joined Islam on my own. Nobody enticed me with anything to join Islam. What
informed your decision to join Islam? I converted to Islam because I love the character of Muslims, particularly the way they behave. You know Muslims believe in God. I have
Muslim friends and I watch what they do, that enticed me to join Islam. I used to read
Qur’an when I was a Christian. I always join them to read Qur’an and through that I
found out that it is the same one God they worship. So I embraced Islam. How did your
father come to know about your change of faith? When I ran to the palace, I told you, it
was very difficult before I could see the Emir. When I saw him, the emir refused to accept me, because my father did not know about it. He, therefore, collected my father’s
number from me and called him. The following day my father came and said he wanted
to see me. When we met we talked one on one. What did you tell him? Well the emir
told him that I have converted to Islam. When my father talked to me, he said let’s go
home, but I refused. I told him that I will not change my faith, because I have already
accepted Islam and this is where I want to stay. He, therefore, threatened me so much so that I became scared of him. What did he do to you amounting to a threat? In the first
place you know, I put on Hijab (veil), he said I should remove the Hijab. He was angry
and used some harsh words on me, directing that I should remove the Hijab, but I
refused. He threatened to take me to a village where nobody will set his eyes on me. So
I became scared of him, therefore I refused to follow him. That is it. Did the emir
intervene? The emir gave him one week to come back, but he came back even before it reached one week. He said he must take me home. He will not take me to our house, but
he’ll take me to somewhere that nobody will set his eyes on me. I quickly ran back to
the emir and to the Shari’a Court for protection. I don’t want to go back to my father,
because he is threatening me. How did you come to know about the Shari’a Court? I
found out from people. I went to them on my own to formally lodge my complaint. Why
Shari’a Court? They have to protect me. You know when you take a case to court over life threatening issue, the court must protect you. That is it. Did your father come back
after you refused to follow him? He came back. He kept on coming back. The other time
he even threatened to bring some people to kidnap me. Is it true that at a time your
father came with the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) officials to you? Yes.
Is it true that you also went to the Jama’atul Nasril Islam (JNI)?
Yes. Why did you go to JNI? I told you and I’ll still repeat it, though I don’t want to repeat my words again. I want them to intervene on my behalf, the threat is too much.
Now I can’t go anywhere, I cannot even continue with my schooling. I cannot do
anything because of the way he has been threatening me. He is still bringing people up
till now to keep watch on me. How do you know that your father has assigned people
to keep watch on you? There was a time that I wanted to go out, information came to
me that my father was around and I had to stay back since I don’t want him to take me away. I know that if I gout anytime,I he’ll pick me up. How did you come to know
about JNI? I have been reading about them. That is why I went to them. How did you
present your case to JNI? I wrote to them seeking for their intervention, because I do
not know how to go about convincing my father. I also learnt that the emir wanted to
hand me over to my father, because the burden of my case is becoming too much for
him to bear. If your father should promise to allow you to practice your new faith, will you go with him? I’ll not. In a family that you are the only Muslim, how can you practice
in that house? You know when he (my father) came along with my mother the other
time, his actions and the harsh words he used, even if I go back home, my life will not
be secured in his hand. That is why I said I’ll not go. Did you start learning anything
about Islam? Yes, I started learning how to perform ablution. I have learnt how to recite
Surah Al- Fatihah, I am now in my second surah. Do you pray five times a day? Yes I do. I am even fasting now. I have been fasting since the beginning of the month of
Ramadan. What is your massage to people wanting to join Islam? I have only one
massage. Islam is good. Muslims are truthful, everything they say, they believe in God
and they carry people along. Once a person converted to Islam, he’ll be carried along
until he is strong to stand on his own. What is your appeal to your parent? I am
appealing to my parents not to be angry with me. My conversion to Islam will not separate us. I still love them, even though I am here. They can come and visit me and I
can also visit them. They shouldn’t think my new faith will take away the love I have
for them. It will not. I am very sorry.

I criosly wonder y everyone has been saying all
sorts of negative things on d child marriage
ruling,count in ur own neighbourhood how many
15 year old and below that are virgins,handful.
How many secondary schl girls are being disvirgnd
on valentine days in school toilets and bushes,how many inocent and underage housemaids are being
sexually abused in the houses of their
employees,even secondary school teachers abuse
their wards. Go to our female boarding schools and
see the no of underage girls engaging in illicit
practices,so many lesbians around. I don't think marrying a girl off at a tender age can stop her
from going to school or getting proper education,it
will only keep her away from engaging in acts that
are harmful to her and the entire community. I can
categorically say today that most club girls in
nigeria are teenagers,well below 18yrs of age,and they engage in things that even a 30yr old dare
not try. So what are we saying here.the no of ppl
that engage mostly in abortion fall below
18yrs,senators,politicians and rich men,senseless
ones though patrol our undergraduate hostels
looking for girls to have a one night stand with and once they give them a token amount,the gals
hop in their parked flashy cars and some even
have sex with them in their cars. If all these can be
happening,I see no reason why a 12 or 13 year old
girl cannot get married o,its for her own good
afterall.

Non of them,but bba worst past.I've been watching it since morning trying know what his all about.it has no meaning nd its wast of time.

There is a freedom of worship in nigeria constitution,muslim re also paying tax to govt to fund the public school,so muslim have a right to use a hijab in our jointly own school.

The attention of the Muslim Students' Society of Nigeria (MSSN) Lagos State Area Unit has been drawn to the purported ban on the use of Hijab in Lagos State public Schools by the state government. The State Commissioner for Education, Mrs Olayinka Oladunjoye, was widely quoted in the media claiming that the decision to ban the use of hijab was a consensus reached at a 'stakeholders' meeting chaired by the Commissioner for Home Affairs and Culture Mr Oyinlomo Danmole.

We want to state unequivocally that the claim of Mrs Oladunjoye was an absolute lie and an attempt to obtruct the course of justice. The commissioner claimed in her statement to the media that the MSSN representatives were at the so called stakeholders' meeting where the decision to ban the hijab was taken. This is ridiculous. How can we be demanding that the right of Muslims to use hijab in schools be given them and at the same time we will consent to a 'consensus' that is anti-thetical to our demand? We were never invited for any meeting at any point in time!

Let us state here that the state government had reneged on its agreement to call us for dialogue since our mass protest of Februarry 28, 2013 to the Governor's Office in Alausa. The state government did not only reneged on all agreements but also ensured through delay tactics that the case is swept under the carpet.

The pronouncement by the commissioner is an after thought and a flagrant disrespect for the rule of law. We have already served the government court notice on the issue and Justice Oyewole of the State High Court had fixed May 27, 2013 for hearing of our suit. So, we wonder why the commissioner, who we believe, knows the position of the law, would come out to make such irresponsible pronouncement. Her action makes us to question her professional integrity as a lawyer!

We therefore advised governor Babatunde Fashola to caution this woman before she destroyed the integrity left in the government.

Such personalities like Mrs Oladunjoye and her co-travellers are not fit for public positionand should henceforth be removed from office.

As we have stated in our previous positions, we will employ all legal and peaceful means to ensure our rights are not denied us. The constitution of Nigeria recognises the right to use hijab in schools and nobody can take it away from us.

We will not relent!

Thanks.
