GOMBE, Nigeria (AP) — A pastor says gunmen have attacked a church in northeast Nigeria, killing at least three people and wounding others.
Johnson Jauro of the Deeper Life Church in Gombe, the capital of Gombe state, said the attack happened around 7 p.m. Thursday. Jauro said he heard gunfire everywhere and lost his wife in the assault on the church.

Police confirmed the attack happened in Gombe, but declined to offer any details.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack.

The assault came as northeast Nigeria has been facing attacks from a radical Muslim sect known as Boko Haram. It wants strict Shariah law to be implemented across Nigeria, a multiethnic nation of more than 160 million people.

For those of you foolishly and ignorantly protesting d removal of fuel subsidy,billions of naira have been said to have exchanged hands in d past few days for d prosecution of d protests.NLC got a chunk of dat money and they are ready to go all out to fight d subsidy removal.but sadly enough,instead of us telling this evil cabal (less than 200 Nigerians) to their faces that enough is enough,we are giving in to their deciet,lies and misinformation.too bad!!finally,NLC should hand down directives to its unproductive,dormant and highly corrupt members only.telling Nigerians to stock foods as they (NLC) 'will be shuting down d country' from Monday next week is not only laughable but silly.NLC can stay at home as long as they want,afterall most of them are ghost workers and unproductive,but they shud try NOT to interrupt other people's businesses especially d non-salary earners.

Well said!!

The new personal income tax has been signed into law since the past 3 weeks,and I must tell U as a Tax Expert that Nigeria tax system is now really progressive,which means the low income earner now pay less. Personal reliefs have equally been adjusted. To me,the man has good intentions,only that some decision he took are ill-timed. Economically,subsidy removal is also a good economic development tools, but will work well when the leakages of economic growth has gone round.

Ʊ ∂eƔ mind the people wey ∂eƔ Ơ̴̴͡.̮Ơ̴̴̴͡ only 1600 buses, Nigerians are too lazy!! Why becos everything is subsidized for us even Pilgrimage,

Hahahaha 90% of ya'll don have papers.

@ omo tier
the post was meant for Nigerians in Nigeria not Nigerians in the Uk working as genitors, cab drivers, security guards, door men and mortuary attendants.

it is a message for Nigerians that wish to make your motherland a better place so that your likes will come back from exile.

Now quickly go and change that kid' s nappies freaking white man's nanny.
you black disgrace.

Ha ha,  I bet your Minister for Trade and Investment ( Mr. Olusegun Aganga) was also working as genitor, cab driver, security guard, door men and mortuary attendant!
COWARD,  You want to come across as intelligent and grasping but you could not put up an article that is coherent, truthful and factual. The rubbish you put up there can only be consumed by those inbreed of the Nigerian Education System GEJ has offered your likes

Need I say get lost to the dustbin of History?,  And FYI,  Several Nigerian technocrats, Engineers, Adminstrators abound here, and they are making a difference to both Nigerian Economy and the UK Economy. I bet if you have managed to buy your parents a 'living hope' in your entire life

Oh his even in the diaspora LWKMD e fit no even get paper may be na aduro e ∂eƔ chop, Abeg go wash dead body

Look, somehow I think you need your head examined! This is not subsidy, this is ST. UPIDITY! How many villages will 1600 buses serve? London alone has over 6,800 Buses with a Population of 6m!

Subsidizing Fares on FG Buses,  oh dear,  will the buses operate in the villages? Where are the roads the buses will operate on?,  With the bad roads, in 9month's time, we will be talking about the importation of another 1600 buses or more,  another SCAM !!

mr mumu teir or omo teir, Ʊ need to have ur brain examined so because I don't accept ur veiw warrants me to have my brain checked, When fuel was N65 how much did Ʊ think they sold it in those villages ur making a case for?, have Ʊ ever asked urself why our subsidized kerosene DPK are neva available for those village people ur making a case for? Stop protesting on the comfort of bbm or laptop go and occupy somewhere in ur area internet activist

20% of the buses will be source from domestic producers according to info minister. MDAs have been directed to pay january salary by 20th and probably february will follow suit. Those of u dat wil never listen to voice of reason but rather open dia mouth to voice out dia paucity of acute sagacity, i said d 1600 buses are just for a START! According to my guy Labran, by february, there would have been enough to cushion d effect on d transport sector. More palliatives still coming. Pls don't be insultive when commenting here. Lets be matured while proving our points

20% of 1600 is how many? A paltry number of 320! You mean FG will be importing a whooping 1280busses from another country and you call that 'Pallative' measures?

Look as for the salary, We KNOW the Federal Government does not have the CAPACITY to pay salaries middle of the month! Why, most Salaries are now done through BACs, and these are fixed systems that require substantial paper work and electronic software adjustment, hence the reason when an employee salary is adjusted wrongly, they usually get the employee paid either in cash or in subsequent BACs transfer!

So dude,  not all Nigerians can be fooled!

Let me also tell you this,  these buses to be brought in, however the number, will not run on water,  okay. They will run on diesel, which will be bought at prevailing market rates of N145, how then will the FG get the buses to charge less per person on any given mileage of transportation? Wouldnt that be a delibrate distortion of local prices?, Or are you going to tell me that these buses will carry Nigeria for free?, Who pays then?,  the FG?,  ha ha,  more SCAM on the way!
Boy, Nigerians are more wiser than your puppet government seems to think!


They have said that they want the poor to enjoy the subsidy instead of petroleum marketers. They have said that the fare would be subsidized instead of my country subsidizing fuel for chad,niger,benin and cameroun, Ʊ people should also prepare for another occupy nigeria cos no more fertilizer subsidy too

MY FELLOW COUNTRY MEN,

JUST A LITTLE MATHEMATICS, AS PART OF THE FRESH AIR!, GOODLUCK IS PROVIDING 1600 BUSES FOR 160,000,000 PEOPLE.

NUMBER OF PEOPLE PER BUS = 160,000,000 / 1600

                                                  =  100,000 PERSONS PER BUS, THEY WILL ALL GET FRESH AIR INSIDE THE BUS.


Ʊ people don't even knw ur population in another post someone said 140m here another one said 160m, So all the 160m in nigeria enter buses, Foolish analysis, Moreover did the FG tell Ʊ that is only 1600 buses they are providing,

Go and join the protest since is paining Ʊ too much

bombay:
Why are you guys attacking beaf that's not right is it because he believes in a cause. Most of you complaining know deep down in your heart this is the right way to go.Except you have an interior motive.

The deed has been done what i expect you guys to discuss is how do we move forward.

Do you know why our refineries where not working to full capacity it is because of the subsidy some people have carved a niche for themselves to suck blood out of our great country Nigeria. It is a shame some of you cannot see beyond your nose.

You guys have to give Jonah chance he his not a magician and i know he his not silly.

Next on the line expenses will be cut, Power will be fully deregulated.

We have to move economic activities out of lagos  open the port in warri, ph port, direct rail system to connect states,have an operating ferry system.

We are over dependence on fuel.

Well said my brother very soon a mallam would come and tell Ʊ STFU cos his clan is used to freebies the profit frome subsidy that's why is paining dem very well lazy cattles

MAYOWAAK:
so apart frm wickedness, d GEJ-led administration has added 'sheer STUPIDITY' 2 dier resume! I mean wot dyu call importing 1,600 buses for 36 states, 774 LGAs, 140 million people??!!!


So 140million nigerians use buses. Are Ʊ not the folish one here. s

1. I am using my phone, I am on the street. Ok

2. STFU this is what you said "Over the years, smuggling of fuel from Nigeria for sale in areas within in Cameroon has been on the rise especially due to better prices."

and I replied is the solution closing the border or removal of subsidy ?

Indeed - and a total m.o.r.on to boot . Why don't we advise western nations to surgically seal the noses of their citizens to prevent them snorting cocaine? Surely, that is a much better solution than maintaining the dignity of their citizens via tackling the dealers and importers of the drug !!!!!

By the same logic why not back blanket subsidy removal under the same President who will not tackle the corrupt element of subsidy ? Did the same President not appoint an IG much less qualified than many who had to be retired to accomodate his promotion?

Go through MMIA today and it is extortion and corruption from when you go in till when you board the plane. Passport offices in Nigeria, totally the same. Police nko? Our bribery zones Borders nko ? Yet this same GEJ has been substantive President approaching 2 years now !!!

Sad that those who cause the problems are allowed to pretend attempting to solve it. What a mad nation.


Bros, you still de here?
I thought by now you would be leading hoards of unwashed, wild-eyed, froth-mouthed Neanderthals on a scary REVOLUTION!
What happened to your "owners of Nigeria?" They got scared? LOLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!

As borders were closed, Nigeria also announced a decision on to scrap oil subsidies. That has affected bordering Cameroon town that have relied on Nigeria for petro supply.

Over the years, smuggling of fuel from Nigeria for sale in areas within in Cameroon has been on the rise especially due to better prices.


For those who claim is only the shutting down of border

Subsidy removal already working we would knw how many litres of pms we really consume 9jai

Lwkmd wishful thinking, the strike is just a 2day public holiday for workers strike my behind

The SS has spoken no pain no gain hold ur governors responsible they would also benefit from the money saved from subsidy, Nigerian and their misplaced priority.

People should go and hold their local government chairman and governors responsible for there suffring and leave FG alone!! The the money saved from subsidy will also go to them, the SE\SS has neva bought fuel for 65 naira per litre except for some of its capitals like PH,warri,etc hold your governors to ransom

Omo_Tier1:
Seriously, this question does beg for serious answer folks. We all know our refinaries are not all dead. At least they still refine some volumes of PMS. We also do know that the cost of refining locally is way way cheaper than the imported PMS, just as foriegn rice is way more expensive than Abakiliki rice in Nigeria.

Then arise the question: Will NNPC mega station be selling fuel at far more cheaper rate of say N70 since the PMS refined in Nigeria are not subidized? If yes, what will become of the oil marketers who the FG have said can go overseas and import and sell to the public. If the NNPC follow the PPPRA directive to sell @ N141 locally refined PMS, is that not an economic sabotage, selling almost 10 times the actual cost of production?

Fellow forumites, what is your take, any answers to the question above?


I thought people like Ʊ said our refineries are not working ?

Occupynigeria where are Ʊ people occupying today?

If Ʊ can't afford petrol for ur car go and buy bicycle

WE ARE PROTESTING BECAUSE OF THE INCREMENT OF FUEL SINCE THERE IS NO SUBSIDY. THUS WHERE WOULD THE EXTRA MONEY FROM THE INCREMENT GO ? WHAT IS IT MEANT FOR ? AND WHY.

Very funny answer, Ʊ are protesting against a business man that imported his product and is selling to make profit?

Why not import fuel and sell at 65 naira per letter or better still Ʊ and NLC should import fuel sell for 65 naira since Ʊ say there is no subsidy

Quote God bless you. Rhymz, at the end of the day we are all in the mess together. This is the point we should join hands and fight against a common enemy which is CORRUPTION because there is nothing like fuel subsidy. All this is just to milk us dry.


If there isd no subsidy then why are Ʊ protesting?

The SE\SS won't protest cos fuel has neva been subsidied in those areas they buy fuel 150 per litre when there was subsidy, So it makes no diff to them

This is to those calling him names the JOKES on Ʊ losers
