Ceding Bakassi to Cameroon saved Nigeria from major war –Ajibola, former World Court judge

Ajibola

Bakassi peninsular is a 1,600-kilometre land boundary between Nigeria, near the city of Calabar in Cross River State, and the Rio del Ray estuary in Cameroon. It was an area inhabited by citizens of both Nigeria and Cameroon.

Due to population growth, which was once put at between 150,000 and 300,000 people, and the attendant increase in human activities on the two sides, the boundary that existed between the two countries became hazy.

Over time, the ownership of this area, said to be very rich in diverse mineral resources, soon became an issue of conflict between Nigeria and Cameroon. While Nigeria argued that it had been in possession of the area in dispute and that its citizens were predominant in the area, Cameroon maintained that regardless of who had been in occupation, the land had belonged to it since the colonial era. It added that the British ceded Bakassi to Germany through the Anglo-German agreement of 1913 and that Germany ceded it to France and then France ceded same to it (Cameroon).

God do talk to people but some tend to ignore; here by leading to the unfortunate.

Please note that i'm not talking about this prophetess but just using the Bible young prophet as a reference.( The young prophet was instructed and warned by GOD before embarking on the journey and he did try to keep to the warning but eventually fell victim to an old prophet who envied his ministry).

Anyway, may God put the devil to shame.

On 8 January, two waves of missile strikes were carried out by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard (IRGC) against US military facilities in Erbil and Ayn al-Asad Air Base in Iraq.

UK Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab has condemned the "reckless and dangerous attacks" on Iraqi military bases hosting US-led coalition forces.

"We are concerned by reports of casualties and use of ballistic missiles", Raab said in a statement as quoted by Reuters.
"We urge Iran not to repeat these reckless and dangerous attacks, and instead to pursue urgent de-escalation", the foreign secretary added. "A war in the Middle East would only benefit Daesh and other terrorist groups".

Media reports earlier suggested that around 80 people were killed and around 200 injured following Tehran's airstrikes targeting US military facilities in Iraq's Erbil and Ayn al-Asad Air Base. Washington has not confirmed this information yet.

Meanwhile, Iraq's military has said that no casualties were recorded among the country's forces following 22 projectiles launched by Iran towards American facilities in Iraq. According to a statement by the Iraqi military, 17 missiles targeted Ayn al-Asad Air Base, while 5 others reportedly fell on coalition headquarters in the city of Erbil.

On Wednesday morning, two waves of airstrikes were launched by the IRGC against American military forces in Iraq. No retaliatory strike from the US followed, but US President Donald Trump tweeted that he would make a statement later about the attacks.

Cristiano Ronaldo netted twice to set another goalscoring landmark and help Juventus to a 3-1 home win over Udinese on Sunday.

Ronaldo's strikes on nine and 37 minutes saw him move up to 11 goals for the season in 19 appearances, becoming the only player in Europe's top five leagues to hit double figures in all competitions in each of the last 15 seasons.

Leonardo Bonucci's header on the stroke of half time effectively sealed the match, with Ignacio Pussetto netting a consolation for the visitors late in the game.

Juventus suffered their first defeat of the season at Lazio last weekend to surrender the lead to Inter Milan, but the champions put pressure back on Antonio Conte's side by moving one point clear at the top with victory at the Allianz Stadium.

Maurizio Sarri's side have 39 points, but Inter can regain first place by beating Fiorentina away in the late game on Sunday.

"The most important thing was to win," Ronaldo told Sky Sport Italia.

"This is how we should play, with confidence. Individual performances aren't what matters, but the collective effort."

Udinese remain in relegation trouble after falling to 17th place on 15 points, hovering just two points above the drop zone.

Juventus play their final Serie A game before the winter break at Sampdoria on Wednesday, before a rematch against Lazio in the Italian Super Cup in Saudi Arabia next weekend.
