PrideofLincoln1:The total budget of Nigeria is not up to the education budget of some region or states in developed country. Nigeria has its own problems with ISWAP(Daesh in West Africa), Boko Haram, killer herdsmen and other bandits roaming around the country. They should deal with that first before trying to do an ECOMOG type mission outside Africa 2 Likes |

Mr Wallace was reported to have told MPs that Afghans hoping to seek asylum in the UK would be better off now heading for the border and trying to make their way to a third country such as Pakistan or Iran. Mr Heappey said there will be 11 more flights out of Kabul on Thursday, but declined to say whether there will be more on Friday, citing the security of troops. “We will do our best to protect those who are there. There is every chance that as further reporting comes in we may be able to change the advice again and process people anew but there’s now guarantee of that,” he told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme. “The window of opportunity to evacuate people is closing. It’s not as simply a case of we can pause, deal with the [terrorist] threat and pick up where we left off.” The Foreign Office issued an alert on Wednesday evening stating: “Do not travel to Kabul Hamid Karzai International Airport. If you are in the area of the airport, move away to a safe location and await further advice.” The US Embassy in Kabul advised US citizens at a number of gates at the airport to “leave immediately”, noting “security threats outside the gates.” The Pentagon said on Wednesday that more than 10,000 people remained at Kabul airport waiting to be evacuated. EU nations have offered stark warnings about the waning days of a massive airlift to bring people out of Afghanistan after the Taliban seized control of the country. France said it would halt its evacuations on Friday while Denmark said its last flight had already left Kabul’s airport. Danish defence minister Trine Bramsen bluntly warned: “It is no longer safe to fly in or out of Kabul.” Eight RAF flights managed to lift 1,988 people from Kabul within the past 24 hours, Mr Heappey said, taking the total since the Taliban began its march to power to just over 12,200. 2 Likes |

The report below was released hours before the blasts by ISIS. The UK and the US have issued a warning to any remaining citizens in Afghanistan to stay away from Kabul airport due to an “ongoing and high threat of terrorist attack”. A possible terror attack at the airport could come within “hours”, Britain’s armed forces minister James Heappey warned on Thursday morning – calling the threat “credible and imminent”. The defence minister described the terror threat to people outside Kabul airport as “lethal” amid concerns over an attack by an affiliate of the so-called Islamic State in Afghanistan, Isis-K. “I can’t stress the desperation of the situation enough – the threat is credible, it is imminent, it is lethal,” Mr Heappey told BBC Breakfast. “We wouldn’t be saying this if we weren’t genuinely concerned about offering Islamic State a target.” The minister told LBC: “I was given lines today for what might happen if the attack happened while I was doing this media round.” He added: “Daesh, or Islamic State, are guilty of all sorts of evil. The opportunism of wanting to target a major international humanitarian mission is just utterly deplorable, but sadly true to form for an organisation as barbarous as Daesh.” Mr Heappey said British intelligence about the “imminence and credibility” of an attack by the so-called Islamic State in Afghanistan had “grown significantly” this week. “There is real lethality to the plans we’re aware of,” he added. It is not yet clear how the terror warning might disrupt evacuation plans. Britain was set to make one last push to bring nearly 2,000 Afghan interpreters and staff out of Kabul on Thursday, in what was expected to be the final day of the RAF’s airlift operation. Officials in London insisted that the timing of the last UK evacuation flight has not yet been decided, but defence secretary Ben Wallace made clear in a conference call with MPs on Wednesday evening that time was running very short. 1 Like |

Apparently, there was Intel received from the Taliban about possible attacks. Could also be the reason why the Taliban wanted evacuation to completed by 31st of August and refusing to extend the deadline. The suicide bombings could have happened days earlier if not for the check points set up by the Taliban. 1 Like

basilico:When did he make the bolded statement? 31st of August is firm, and he will take credit for ending the 20 years occupation of Afghanistan even though "Cadet Bone Spurs" started the withdrawal process. You know that you can strike enemies without having troops on ground. That is much more important. Atleast, the orange turd did that for Soleimani. 1 Like 1 Share |

CutieKing:You were shocked that bandits activities exists on Lagos Ibadan road. I am guessing you have been outside Nigeria for a long time. No one said Nigeria was a paradise. We said it has gotten terribly bad. In addition, Robbers and killer herdsmen are bandits. Killer herdsmen were one of the reasons Amotekun was set up in the SW. Sunday Igboho started his feud with the government because of the activities of killer herdsmen and kidnappers. These criminals are not myths. You may have have a grudge with Sahara reporters, but on this reporting, they got it right. The Guardian in Nigeria also used the word bandit in their reporting. Check the definition of bandit below. 3 Likes
