To make things faster, they should descend on SE states. I'm sure the Youths are capable of fending them off.

If they do then the whole Ndigbo will declare war even a 1 year old baby.

Obiagu1:
This is the beginning of collapse of Nigeria. One by one, states in Nigeria will collapse, Bornu, Bauchi, . . .

I hope Boko Haram intensify their attack on the military and paramilitary and other government institutions to quicken the process.

He said his saloon cars should not cost more than 1 million, for you information these buses cost 4 million unlike foreign ones dat goes above 8 million!! are they are still high quality as you can see from the picture!! the parts are 75% locally sourced, believe me u cant get it better anywhere!!

pls stop being a kill joy!!



No mind Sean, na because say them no build or as assemble am in yoruba land

i just want Nigeria to split,

greggng:
The governor of bauchi state is right to say that people from the south are destined to die that way.I was a little boy still in primary school when my uncles body was brought from kano.He was killed alongside 2 kids.Since then i swore never to visit any state in the north.I will be the last person to allow my kids to serve in the north.I am facing reality.May the soul of the dead rest in peace.May their spirit get rid of those that killed them.It is very clear that the british is responsible for what we are going through.A responsible person doesnot habor human beings with wild animals.The 1914 amalgamation is not helping us.People from the south love life and for same reasons the have great respect for human dignity.The time has come for the Ibos and yorubas to come together with a view to isolating this mad people from the north.

I have being in lagos for close to 20years now,I havenot seen any incident that leads to life taken between the yorubas and the Ibos.The yorubas have being very good landlords and accomodating.The time has come for us to call a spade a spade.Youth corpers from the south should remain in the south

You are right.

Just look at what they did. i have told u all let us declare war now i said WAR

@coolestboy,


Please STOP insulting NDIGBO, we are not insulting you DID I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR? How can we sit and watch them killing our people, it is not possible. Kill one American or Israeli and watch what will happen.

I say, let us declare war against them now. i am tired of all these.

nice

Well he will never leave, we are behide him.

My brother you are right. I see that they don't want us Ndigbo in their land.

Igbos close shops in Borno

The Igbos in Borno State have shut down their businesses over what they call selective killings and robbing of their members in the state. They maintained that all shops, businesses and other economic sectors operated by their members would remain shut until government addressed the lingering killings in the state.

Addressing journalists yesterday in Maiduguri, President General of the Igbo Welfare Association (IWA), Chief Nnaka Okereke said the security situation in Borno was worrisome, adding that it had defied all efforts of security agencies.
“In recent weeks, it has taken a frightening dimension in that armed gangs are selectively robbing and killing Igbos.

Armed robberies and killings in the past three weeks have been selectively directed at Igbos and Igbo businesses,” he declared, noting that no fewer than five persons from the south-eastern part of the country had been murdered in cold blood.
Okereke alleged that the last killing of Obinna, 29 and his 16-year-old brother at Dala Alanderi was carried out after separating the target from “others favoured by religion and tribe of the attackers.” He said no fewer than 12 business premises belonging to Igbos had been attacked and robbed at gunpoint within the same period.

He hinted that the leadership of the Igbos had been managing the situation but felt it was time to let the public know the situation in Borno, adding that they feared the security situation in the state could degenerate to the February 18, 2006 crisis, which, he said, the Igbos were yet to receive assistance or compensation from the government.

He said the corpses of the victims of the last week killings were still left in the morgue at the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital (UMTH) because the leadership of the Igbos were scared of possible reprisal attacks by the families of the deceased in their states whenever their corpses were conveyed home, urging the Borno State government to contact the governments of the deceased home states to make adequate arrangement to forestall break down of law and order.
“We are appealing to the government of Borno State to liaise with the state governments of those affected persons to avert a national crisis as a result of these unprovoked killings of innocent and helpless citizens going about their legitimate businesses in their fatherland,” he appealed.
The president-general said the Igbos in Borno would need assurances from the state government and the people of Borno to know if they could continue to live, hence, they were prepared to move out of the state soon. All shops, business outfits as well as commercial vehicles in the state did not open. Equally, operators of luxury buses had also downed tools indefinitely in support of the course.


Meanwhile, another soldier was also feared dead in Biu, south of Maiduguri on Sunday night as gunmen on motorcycles attacked some soldiers on duty. Daily Sun gathered from army personnel in Biu that two of the soldiers sustained serious injuries.

Jos killings escalate

Headlines Jan 12, 2011 By TAYE OBATERU & CHRIS OCHAYI

JOS— THE cycle of violence in Plateau State continued yesterday as, Wareng, a hamlet in Riyom Local Government Area was attacked leaving 18 people, mostly children, dead.

Two other villages were also attacked, Monday, in neighbouring Barkin-Ladi Local Government Area in similar circumstances during which five people were killed.

A statement signed by ASP Obinna Simeon on behalf of the state Commissioner of Police said three persons were killed at Nyaarwai village where 11 houses were burnt while two persons were killed and three injured at Fagawang village.

Igbo community loses 40 members

This came as the Igbo community in Jos said about 40 of its members were killed in last Saturday’s violence in the state capital while several others were still missing.

The attack on Wareng, which is believed to be a continuation of attacks and counter attacks since the mayhem erupted in the state.
The marauders were said to have set houses ablaze, killed the inhabitants as they tried to escape from the fire and quickly escaped into the hills near the village before help could come for the people.

Chairman of Riyom Local Government who confirmed the incident in a telephone interview said corpses of the victims had been deposited in mortuaries pending burial, describing the situation as unfortunate.

The State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Abdulrahaman Akano, who also confirmed the attack said full investigation had begun with the aim of apprehending the attackers.

Briefing journalists on the killing of Igbos in last weekend’s mayhem in the state capital, President General of Igbo Community Association, Chief Richard Wayas, said over 40 corpses of their people had been deposited in various mortuaries in the state.

He noted that the Igbos were targeted and attacked in their shops and their property looted while members of the Special Task Force, STF, maintaining security in the state allegedly watched unconcerned.

Wayas said: “On Saturday, we were stunned by the massacre of Igbo people in Jos North. About 40 corpses are currently deposited in various mortuaries while several injured persons are still in the hospitals. As I speak, there are still some people who are missing while our shops were looted and our goods carted away by the hoodlums.”

He added that a luxurious bus conveying mostly Igbo travellers was also attacked and burnt down wondering why Igbos who had nothing to do with the alleged killing of some people who went for a wedding would be target of such attacks.

The Igbo leader accused the commander of the STF and his men of taking sides in the matter alleging that they watched the hoodlums unleash violence without taking any step to check them.

Igbos lock up businesses

Wayas said Igbos would continue to lock up their businesses in the state capital until their security was guaranteed. Meanwhile, the Plateau State Security Council has condemned the renewed violence in the state and the attendant loss of lives and property.

A statement signed by the Permanent Secretary, Cabinet and Special Services, Mr. Istifanus Gyang said the council was saddened by the development especially the involvement of the youth and under aged in the violence.

The statement said: “The council is deeply concerned about the attack on travellers on federal and state highways. Therefore, the special task force and police have been directed to properly secure all the highways and other roads in the state for free and unhindered passage by all users.”

As tensions continue to rise following unprecedented violent killing in Plateau State, the Federal Government, yesterday, ordered a sustained 24_hour police patrol of the state and the neighbouring states with a view to forestalling further breakdown of law and order in and around Jos metropolis.

Inspector General of Police, IGP, Mr. Hafiz Ringim who announced the new strategy in a statement in Abuja, pleaded with the people to collaborate with the police and the security agencies to ensure the success of the ongoing efforts to restore permanent peace to the war torn state.

Ringim added: “At the moment, 15, 000 policemen have been deployed in Jos along with personnel of other security agencies to restore and sustain peace in Jos. In recent time four policemen have been killed, eight suspects arrested, 57 people died in various attacks while 95 persons sustained various degree of injury. Security agents operating in Jos can only achieve peace with collaboration of all peace loving people of Jos.”

Man with explosive held in Plateau Assembly

Meanwhile, a middle aged man was arrested within the premises of the Plateau State House of Assembly with a suspected explosive, yesterday.

Handing over the suspect to the Commander of the Special Task Force, Brig. Gen. Hassan Umoru, the Speaker, Mr. Istifanus Mwansat, said the suspect had gained entry into the premises in suspicious circumstances.

Mwansat said that when accosted, the suspect claimed to be going somewhere which had no link with the House.

He said that when the black polythene bag in his possession was searched, pieces of cut out cloths and a small tin suspected to contain an explosive were found in it.

Gen Umoru who thanked the Speaker and the security men at the House for their vigilance promised that the suspect would be thoroughly investigated with a view to finding out his mission in the House.
