I wish stories like this could be broadcasted across Nigeria, maybe those about to make the same mistakes will have a rethink.
A tour of the cities, towns and villages affected by the insurgency and also life in the IDP camps should also be broadcasted. Movies should be made from these events.


In trurh, all aspects of the Nigerian society should have learnt from this war.
Bad governance was the spark
Brutality from security and law enforcement forces ignited and is still fueling the crisis
Stupidity on the part of the people also contributed.

Unfortunately, we are seeing something similar starting to play out in the northwest .

This would be a great discussion on the telegram group

I'm still curious why soldiers from Niger are in Katsina

AskiaHarem:
Dude are you even researching what your posting? You copy/paste spam "news" here everyday which the vast majority of comes with no hard evidence whatsoever beyond faceless eyewitness accounts. A lot of it is proven fake or exaggerated news by the very next day sometimes hours.

Groups like this should be disbanded, it's nothing but abuse.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar on Thursday said bandits ravaging the country with growing impunity would soon register formally with the Corporate Affairs Commission and the Nigerian Stock Exchange.


“They have been allowed to operate so openly and brazenly that it would surprise no one if they applied for registration with the Corporate Affairs Commission and listing on the Nigerian Stock Exchange.

“Five years ago, the Abuja – Kaduna Road was not a virtual no-go area. The South-East was not a virtual war-zone, and Amotekun was not needed to protect lives and property in the South-West.”

Would you hand over your weapons to the Taliban?

Their commanders betrayed them and he has every right to feel like that.

Yes, if it would bring peace to my country, yes!!!

Russia spent 10 years in Afghanistan - No victory!

America spent 20 years in Afghanistan - No victory!!

If dropping my weapons to the Taliban means peace, why not.

Bandits have attacked Rini town in the Bakura Local Government Area (LGA) of Zamfara State.

Eyewitnesses told Channels Television on Friday that the armed men stormed the town at about 2:30am and started shooting sporadically.

While residents were said to have refused to come out of their homes despite heavy gunshots renting the air, the bandits abducted many locals numbering over 60.

The police authorities in Zamfara State confirmed the incident, although they did not give the actual number of residents kidnapped by the bandits.

But the command’s spokesman, Mohammed Shehu, said the police had deployed several tactical operatives in the town with a view to rescuing the abducted persons.

A source said several appeals had been made to the government to provide more security reinforcement for the people of Rini.

The attack on Rini comes barely a week after bandits invaded the College of Agriculture and Animal Science, also in Bakura LGA.

During the attack which occurred at about 11pm on Sunday, the gunmen killed a policeman and two watchmen before they gained entry into the school.

State authorities later confirmed the abduction of 15 students and four staff of the institution who were forcefully taken away by the assailants.

The incident was condemned by the state governor, Bello Matawalle, who assured the families of the victims that they would return safely.

The bandits were said to have contacted the school management to make a demand of N350million as ransom for the victims to be released.

The criminals later released a video in which the students were seen begging the government to heed the demand of their captors who threatened to kill them if the money was not paid.

I will rather fight to death than live under ISWAP or cede an inch of my hometown to Fulanis from Sokoto, kastina, Mali or wherever the hell dey are migrating from.

The people of Afghanistan have to rise against the Taliban.

Following the rising spate of insecurity in Jos and its environs, the Management of the University of Jos has suspended all academic activities in the institution till
further notice.

Mr Monday Danjem, the Registrar of the university, unveiled this development in a statement on Friday in Jos.

According to Danjem, the decision to suspend academic activities and shut hostels was arrived at the end of the meeting between management and the Committee of Deans, Directors and Provost of the institution on Friday, August 20.

“The insecurity in Jos, which led to the imposition of dusk-to-dawn curfew has affected the academic activities and forced the university to suspend its second semester examinations for the 2019/2020 academic session.

“Students of the university continued to experience attacks from hoodlums, a situation that has led to the death of some of our students.

“Consequently, the management of the university, after an emergency meeting with the Committee of Deans, Directors and Provost on Friday, ordered the suspension all academic activities in the university until further notice.

“Management has also directed the closure of all students hostels until further notice

“The decision, which is in best interest and for the safety of our students, is subject to ratification by the Senate of the University,” Danjem said.

The registrar advised students to vacates all hostels and go back home and other safer abodes until the security situation in Jos improves.

He appealed to security agencies to beef up security at the various students location to enable them vacate to their destinations safely.

“Students are also advised to use safe means of transportation to their respective safer destinations.

“We wish to passionately appeal that a joint patrol team of armed soldiers and other law enforcement agencies should beef up security and ensure that students are adequately protected as they vacate their various hostels to safer destinations,” he appealed.

He said that management would give adequate notice of resumption when normalcy is fully restored in Jos and environs.

Danjem thanked the government of the state and security agencies for ensuring the safety of majority of students of the university even as attacks on innocent people persist in Jos.

He called on the students to be law abiding and desist from activities that would put them in trouble.

Recall that some students of the university have been killed and others injured in the current insecurity that has bedeviled Jos in last one week.

We are all entitled to the way we see things, only the Afghans can say definitively what they want.

Clearly Russian communism has not worked.

American Democracy collapsed even before the Americans left.

This is how I see it, that's my opinion.

There have been none, ordinary Afghans are war weary.

I mean, look at the terrifying images of afghans hanging a flying C-17 for dear life.

800 people packed into a C-17.

What's the point.

You are only of this opinion because it's not your reality. It's a normal human behaviour.

Lol very funny, I'm not really an emotional person, I'm more of a logical personality......but what do they want to achieve and how? I don't even see how they want to tip the scale.
