So this $800million came from America of course. To re-build an area that was destroyed by war America itself created. All to invade Nigeria from the North. According to CIA reports the test for how Nigeria would be disintegrated was carried out in 2012 and they actively predicted that Nigeria would be broken up by 2015. Despite their efforts Normal Nigerian Muslims were not randomly killing Nigerian Christians in other regions of Nigeria out of anger and hate [which was what they hoped]. Everyone simple saw Boko Haram as mad people.

The Boko Haram was now has led to the invasion of Nigeria from by America and China has left because of this. We practically have a US Army base with modernized weapons in Nigeria now "AFRICOM" in the name of fighting Boko Haram.

My question is are Nigerians ready to stay together as free Nigerians accepting and living with our diferences while in total control of our lives or break up as neo-colonial slaves to american-european agendas in our small defenceless scattered tribal/religious towns?

If Nigeria breaks up, the entire west Africa is destroyed.

i hate blame game....

Borno State Governor Kashim Shettima has described the $800 million World Bank aid for rebuilding the Northeast, as “inadequate”.

He spoke yesterday at the Government House in Maiduguri, the state capital, when he hosted the United Nations (UN) Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator, Ms Fatma Samoura.

Ms. Samoura, who is also a UN Development Programme (UNDP) Resident Representative, said the UN had scaled up its presence in Borno and other North Eastern states ravaged by the insurgency.

“Yesterday, we had a long discussion with the World Bank team that came from Washington to attend the workshop.

“The workshop is for validating the year findings of the recovery and peace-building assessment.

“They have promised to leverage 800 million dollars for the North East to response to recovery, rehabilitation, de-mining, waste management and debris processing for the North East of Nigeria,’’ she said.

Shettima commended the UN for standing by the government and people of Borno in identifying the root causes and also finding lasting solutions to the insurgency.

But he described the $800 million pledge by the World Bank as grossly inadequate in view of the enormous challenges left behind by the insurgency.

“It is in the interest of humanity to rally round Nigeria over Boko Haram. The developed world gave Turkey $2b to resettle refugees from Syria.

“There are about two million IDPs from Borno and 20 Local Government Areas were overran by Boko Haram and there is food crisis now in the state,” he said.

He however commended President Muhammadu Buhari for his support to Borno and victims of insurgency.

The UN representative regretted that the UN was having challenges in mobilising resources for Nigeria in view of the humanitarian crises in other parts of the world.

“As we all know, the Syrian crisis that is affecting Europe is also taking a heavy toll in terms of funding from our traditional donors.

“We are trying our best to ensure that our advocacy and our communication strategy are up to the level where we will be receiving more attention from the donor community.

“The humanitarian response plan, as we speak, is just 10 per cent funded, meaning we have only received 24 million dollars.

“This is out of 248 million dollars budgeted for the North East of Nigeria for 2016,” she said.

Samoura, however, pledged that the UN would continue to complement the World Bank and the EU support to address the root causes of poverty and exclusion in the North East.

“The UN will be on your side in order to address the humanitarian situation.

“The UN will also support the Borno Government in its work on recovery and rehabilitation for the safe return of the IDPs back to their areas of origin,” she said.

Samoura said her visit to Maiduguri was to demonstrate the sympathy of the UN to the appalling situation of the 1.8 million people who have been displaced by insurgency.

She commended the strong leadership and commitment of the governor to finding sustainable solutions to safe and voluntary return of the IDPs to their places of origin.

... Calls for their release

Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has condemned the arrest of 76 Igbo villagers from Ugwuneshi Autonomous community, Awgu Local Government Area of Enugu State, following a clash between the natives and Fulani herdsmen, saying, “It has gotten to a level that lovers of peace in Nigeria must speak out on this keg of gun powder which the threat that the Fulani herdsmen has become.”
No fewer than 76 men from the Ugwuneshi Autonomous community were last Thursday arrested and whisked away by “men in military uniform” after they protested the continued destruction of their crops and farmlands by Fulani herdsmen and their cattle who settled in the area without permission.
Reacting to the alleged arrest, Governor Fayose, who spoke through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, said President Muhammadu Buhari should address the killing of Nigerians and destruction of farmlands by the Fulani herdsmen.
The governor, who called for the immediate and unconditional release of the 76 Igbo villagers, said the President Buhari’s All Progressives Congress (APC) federal government must not give impression that the Fulani herdsmen were lords in other people’s lands.
Governor Fayose said the Fulani herdsmen were giving impression that they now own Nigeria and could perpetrate any crime and get away with it.
He said: “It is worrisome that the Fulani herdsmen that killed over 400 Agatus in Benue State, raped women and destroyed farmlands in the North Central, South West and South South zones of Nigeria are walking the streets free while Igbo people, who opted to defend their sources of livelihood are languishing in detention.
“Are they saying that those Igbo villagers do not have rights to defend their farmlands from further destruction by the Fulani herdsmen when the president who should defend them is keeping silent?
“These people must be released by whichever security agency of the federal government that is holding them because Nigerians don’t deserve to be treated like slaves in their own house.”
