So from your heart of hearts you believe a senior officer & an Intels Officer will boldly come on air and make such weighty allegations w/o evidence? You seriously believe so? You didn't hear where he said he interrogated some of the people currently in gov't? You're comparing Okah to an Ex-Deputy director of Intels. Qatar arrested some guys funding terrorism till date the govt refused to release the names of these guys, it's in this same country a serving Minister was caught on tape preaching hate and supporting the most deadly terrorist organisation then and all the gov't could do is to tell Nigerians that he no longer hold such views and those statements were made when he was young.
Our mumu no too much? This is why people in power don't rate the citizens because same people surferring the effect of malfeasance, incompetence are those rationalising the actions of their oppresors that will chatter the next available flight out of the country when sh1t hits the fan, just like what happened in Afghanistan. Nothing sha fit surprise me again, is in this same country young men and women were gunned down at Lekki and some people still had the conscience to deny what was beamed live on Instagram in real time and watched by over 140k people. Make una continue toe the Yugoslavia path, almost all the boxes that destroyed Yugoslavia have been ticked here. If the house finally collapses because of hypocrisy/self deciet, "it will be to thy tent oh!! Israel"

Well, u have a point but our able officer, officer nafeesa may disagree on the serving minister part sha

Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara State has urged the federal government to declare state of emergency in the northern part of the country to end insurgency in the region.

This was disclosed when the Governor received the AIG in charge of Zone 10, Mr. Ali Janga, saying that the declaration of state of emergency in the north would be the best option to security lives and property.

According to him, the security challenges facing the zone had reached an alarming rate and ought to be faced with all seriousness.

He stressed that, the sum of N17 million was recently released to the security agencies to mobilise their personnel to security prone areas.

Insecurity: MiddleBelt call on President Buhari to declare state of emergency in Kaduna

On the recently abducted people from some communities in the state, Matawalle said that, government was making efforts to secure their release.

Responding, AIG Ali Janga lauded the financial and moral support being extended to the police and other security agents in the state, urging them to double their efforts.

He maintained that the police would continue to discharge their constitutional duty of protecting lives and property of the people.

AIG Janga called for more support and cooperation from the government and the entire people of the state to the police in the fight against banditry.

Scores of ISWAP and Boko Haram members have been killed during a deadly clash between the terrorist groups in Northern Abadam, Borno State.

According to a news agency, PRNigeria, Boko Haram militants who had planned to surrender came under heavy attack by their angry ISWAP counterparts in the Gusuriya community, located in Dumbawa village.

The Boko Haram members were on their way to surrender to the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) at a border with the Niger Republic last Sunday, August 22, 2021 when they were attacked.

One of the intelligence sources, who is familiar with the development, disclosed that ISWAP leadership was rattled by Boko Haram fighters’ desertion and placed a death sentence on any fleeing member in the Lake Chad axis.

“The deadly attack was coordinated by one Abba-Kaka, a self-acclaimed ISWAP Governor of Tumbumma, Commanding Marte, Abadam, Kukawa and Magumeri, leading to a heavy gun battle that lasted for hours which resulted in the killing of over 25 terrorists including three Commanders while many other militants, who ran in different directions with their families were left with bullets wounds,” the source said.

Another source told PRNigeria that the continued internal rift and the hostility between the two terrorist groups were exacerbated by the execution of JAS (Boko Haram) fighters for committing a minor offence as well as refusal to appoint them into key positions.

“Some high ranking Commanders bearing the titles of ‘Amir’ and ‘Khaid’ (Chiefs) at under the Shekau’s Caliphate in Sambisa were reduced to ordinary militants fighters after paying allegiance to the ISWAP leadership.

“Some JAS Commanders and their loyalists were already contemplating pitching their tents against the ISWAP by joining forces with the Bakura and Krimima Led-JAS Factions that have been battling the ISWAP around the axes of Lelewa, Duwa, Wallal and Hauwa Bulumwa villages in the Niger Republic,” the source added.

Askiaharem won't believe this news cause there is no video or picture evidence it happened

Let's keep pushing blames around and not address the root cause and I promise you decades from now we will still be dealing with insecurity.

There is this article by Humangle stating that the bulk of the terrorist finances is from taxing locals in their area of control, kidnapping for ransom and controlling the smoked fish and pepper trade in that axis. It was at the infancy of the insurgency that they were relying on donations from individuals, at this point they make far more than any group of individuals can donate to them in a year in just weeks.
No doubt they have sympathizers within and outside government but we need hard evidence not media trial.
At this point, the conflict is too personal for many in the military to keep quiet if they knew those behind it. The current army chief has been attacked before by these terrorists. Many have lost friends and relatives to these violence. If indeed the military and government knew those sponsoring the terrorists and criminals, we would have been seeing a repeat of what happened to Badeh(not suggesting that he was killed by men in the military, just referring to the manner of the death).

#On_Channels_Tv_Sunrise_Daily_NDA_Attack

Commodore Olakunle Olawunmi (A military intelligence veteran with 35 years experience) has spilled it all and says he doesn't care if he is killed.

"I belong to a group in the Military that's not supposed to be seen or heard. Right now, I don't care if I am eliminated"Kunle Olawunmi
Prof of Global Security Studies.

1. Some Governors, ministers and Senators are sponsors of Boko Haram and the Government knows them.

2. Bureau De Change operators are also sponsors of Boko Haram which is also known.

3. Another security breach is that every Friday NDA and all government institutions are opened for Jumat prayers. They come on Friday for worship. Later they become members of the mess who will later spy on the institution and plan their attack.

4. This government does not want to resolve this problem, rather they are escalating it.

5. The solution is not Kinetic solution but non kinetic.You identified the center of gravity, which had been identified. The center of gravity is the sponsors of Boko Haram and Bandits.

6. Most of these sponsors are known within the intelligence community.

7. The DMI, DSS and Police intelligence knows the sponsors very well.The DSS knows very well with tons of files of those sponsoring evil in this country.

8. The defense headquarters knows all those who are behind the terror going on in Nigeria today.

9. The commander in chief knows exactly what is happening but he is quite. When a fish is about to get rotten, the head is the first.

10. The end game is to turn Nigeria into Taliban type of Country. Everyone in the Defense HQ, Army HQ, Naval HQ, and Airforce HQ.

11. The government of Dubai knows the sponsors and they sent lists to the federal government. What did Buhari do?

12. A highly ranked member of this government was interrogated and was found culpable. He is currently a highly rated member of this government.

13. This government wants the government to be islamized.Thats the truth.

14. We are currently in the worst security situation in Nigeria today. CIA actually didn't trust Buhari before 2015. It took the intelligence community and Tinubu to convince Obama and CIA to accept him. They said he was a bigot and will plunge the country.

15. According to Naval Commander Kunle Olawunmi a Prof of Global Security Studies, he said the government directed that all media should be calling them Bandits and unknown gun men so that the international community will be mislead that they are not terrorist.

16. Tagging them Terrorists will invite the international community.

17. He added that the government don't want journalists to report the true picture of what is happening in the country.

18. He added that there must be insider collaboration in NDA. There are a lot of irresponsible people in Nigerian Military formations. This is well known.

19. In few hours the people that attacked NDA will be apprehended, but that's not the solution.

20. The Government should have a policy change. The sponsors should be apprehended and brought to justice.

21. There must be a direct change of policy from Islamization to Democracy.

22. This is a tyrannical government.The damage this government is going to do in the next two years will be more than what they had done in the past six years.

Naval Commander Kunle added that there will be 10% casualties to make it look like it's Banditry and not Islamization.Thats why you see attacks in some Muslims areas so as to convince the international community that the government knows nothing.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyHowYHyAp8

The 10% 20% 25?% he mentioned is a given operational requirement given for casualties in any military operation.....once that casualties figure is reached the unit Is rested, or the operation terminated or whatever is done....but that unit would no longer be a spearhead in that form.

NDA ATTACK: CDS ORDERS PROBE INTO SECURITY BREACH AMIDST ‘SLEEPING ON DUTY’ ALLEGATIONS.

The Chief of Defence Staff, Lucky E. O Irabor has ordered the constitution of a board of enquiry to ascertain the remote and immediate causes of the breach of security during bandit attack at the Nigerian Defence Academy, NDA. On Tuesday gunmen had invaded the staff quarters of the NDA, killed two officers and abducted one other. The attack on the country’s elite military academy had attracted condemnations by many Nigerians.

A few hours after the incident, The Cable, citing intelligence sources, alleged that personnel on duty at the NDA CCTV monitoring room were sleeping during the attack. Refuting this allegation, the Defence Headquarters, DHQ, in a statement by the director, Defence Information, Benjamin Sawyerr, said the report was untrue, challenging the newspaper “to publish forthwith a verifiable proof of personnel sleeping during the incident”.

He said: “It is therefore imperative to caution the Cable Online media to guide against being used as a propaganda tool by enemies of our dear country. “The Cable Online should not consciously or unconsciously collaborate with these unscrupulous elements to spread unverified stories on the unfortunate event that occurred at NDA Kaduna while tarnishing the good image and reputation of personnel of the Armed Forces of Nigeria (AFN) in the eyes of the civil populace. “It is perhaps important to mention that the AFN as a professional force consist of highly trained personnel who are dedicated to their duties of protecting lives and property of all Nigerians.” The CDS vowed to sanction any personnel found culpable, adding that the outcome of the investigation would help prevent future occurrence.

The statement said: “Let me use this opportunity, to reiterate that the NDA authorities, acting on the directive of the Chief of Defence Staff has constituted a board of enquiry to ascertain the remote and immediate cause(s) of the breach of security with a view to sanction any personnel found culpable and also prevent future occurrence.” The statement noted that the troops of the Armed Forces of Nigeria would continue with its operations to ensure all those involved in the dastardly act are brought to justice.

Doom and gloom every time you turn on the TV has apparently hit one man from St. Petersburg more than most, with the unhappy viewer now taking broadcasting execs to court for supposedly leaving him shaken by their grim coverage......

While it might seem like a remote issue, academic analyses have found that news coverage of current affairs across the world tends to be predominantly negative.

NIGERIAN MARITIME ADMINISTRATION AND SAFETY AGENCY
(NIMASA)
PRESS RELEASE

Governor Ganduje Commend NIMASA’s CSR Project
· As Agency Donates Relief Materials to Kano IDPs
Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has said relief materials donated to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the state by the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) are a strategic intervention that would help the people get back to normal life. Ganduje said NIMASA’s action was also symbolic, as it would not only give the people a sense of belonging, but also motivate other organisations and individuals to come to the aid of the displaced persons.
The governor spoke in Kano, the state capital, when he personally received relief items and other empowerment materials provided by NIMASA for the IDPs. He said the gesture was illustrative of the commitment of the Dr. Bashir Jamoh-led Management of the Agency to alleviating the suffering of Nigerians displaced by insurgency and other man-made disasters.
“These are complete state-up materials and tools for people to start earning a living,” Ganduje stated, adding, “In fact, you have brought life to the people.”
Delivering the items, the Director General of NIMASA, Dr. Bashir Jamoh, said the provision was in support of the Federal Government’s effort to tackle humanitarian crises created by insecurity and natural disaster. Jamoh said it was also meant to identify with the less privileged in society in line with the Agency’s Corporate Social Responsibility policy.
“These people have suffered a huge economic and psychological dislocation, but we are determined to help them pick up the pieces and get back on their feet,” the Director General stated.
He added, “As an Agency, this is our own way of contributing to the Federal Government’s humanitarian relief initiative for persons suffering sundry displacements for reasons beyond their control.”
The Director General, who was represented by his Special Assistant on Technical Matters, Barrister Suleiman Abdulsalami, said the donations were part of the Agency’s CSR programme built around Youth Empowerment, Safety, Environmental Protection, and Educational Support. He called on the beneficiaries to make judicious use of the items and prayed for an end to the security issues affecting the country.
Items handed over to the Kano State Governor included tricycles, motorcycles, water pumping machines, sewing machines, beddings, toiletries, and foodstuffs.

Meanwhile, when oil was selling for above $100 per barrel and Nigeria was producing over 2 million bpd and government "had interest and will" to end the insurgency.....




Some of my colleagues will rather believe the weapons are being purchased to be used against the south by the north rather than for the security of lives and properties in the country. One was querying the need to get new ships when there is no "water" in the northeast.




Just imagine where the military will be by now if they had been getting this kind of support since the beginning of the insurgency?

No peace for the wicked
