OKKO:
If all this is true, there is a need for GEJ to direct ICPC to urgently investigate them...but unfortunately he will not. That is why we are saying that he is incompetent.

and your pea brain does not allow you know about immunity?
The dictatorship and lack or respect for due process and rule of law by Buhari and his pal Obasanjo has made you not to understand the sepration of powers?

Former Gov Tinubu gave away Hectares of land belonging to several communities-Sirinwon, Igbekodo, Apakin etc in Ibeju Lekki local government to his crony, one Ibukun Fakeye to develop a golf course and housing estate with no regard for the right of the community? In addition, why did the Lagos State Government pay a whopping sum of N5billion for the take-off of the project which today is being singularly handled by Ibukun Fakeye as a private project at the exclusion of any Lagos State Government official? Was this project ever approved by the Lagos State House of Assembly or the amount appropriated in the 2006 or 2007 budgets?

No newspaper would report this.

Ms. Yinka Fashola is the immediate elder sister of the Gov. Fashola. She is the one superintending over the on-going Lagos State Residents Registration exercise. Nothing less than 7 Billion Naira has been expended on the exercise thus far. Unfortunately, more than a year since the commencement of the programme, they have only succeeded in registering 164,000 people. Mathematically, it translates to N42,682, 926.82 to register one person. Pure waste of tax payers funds.

No newspaper would report this.

The entire Ogudu Foreshore scheme initially earmarked for low cost housing scheme sold to a company belonging to Prince Dipo Eludoyin – a crony of Bola Tinubu? How much was this piece of real estate sold? And where did the money end up in?

No newspaper would report this.

Bola Tinubu’s wife, Remi Tinubu, built the massive New Era Foundation youth camp at the junction of Eleko, off the Lekki-Epe express road, with Lagos State funds. Today, the project is now her personal property.

No newspaper would report this.

Fashola during his electioneering campaign of 2011, in no uncertain terms, promised that he would build the 4th Mainland Bridge. Today, there are no signs of the project kicking off.

No newspaper editorial reminded him of this campaign promise.

The 1,000 hectares of land valued at about N75billion located at Lakowe near Abijo at Ibeju-Lekki Local Government and given to Lekki Concession Company (LCC). It is partly- owned by Tinubu and Fashola. It has been been developed into a golf course and housing estate by Assets and Resource Management Ltd (ARM) as ADIVA project.

We are still waiting for a newspaper to do an editorial on this.

Fashola built a bridge to connect Lekki to Ikoyi. The bridge, the Lekki-Ikoyi bridge, is described as a “suspended bridge”. The bridge is by no means a suspended bridge. Most Lagosians are clueless of what a suspended bridge is. Hoever, they accept it as that. The bridge costs the State a staggering N38 Billion ( they creatively skimmed off N2b from N40B, to make it N38Billion, in order to give the project amount some decency). The House of Assembly’s verification exercise rated the bridge as being not worth more than N7 billion. Whatever happened to N31Billion is best left to the imagination of the tax payers.

No newspaper has reported this.

Still on the Lekki-Ikoyi bridge. The Lekki-Ikoyi “suspended” bridge is a 1.8km bridge. It is built on low-tide (shallow) waters. It was built at an incredible cost of N38Billion. That is over $250m dollar for a 1.8km bridge! Mathematically, that translates to about N18million per meter length (over $120k per length). In other words, N420, 200 per inch ($40, 0000 per inch). Perhaps, the bridge was built with gold-plated gravel and steel.

However, this leaves one wondering how much it would then take Fashola to build the fabled 4TH Mainland bridge, a bridge that is expected to span 15km.

No wonder wonder they have refused to sign the FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT in Lagos State till date and Fashola is in court with SERAP against their request for how he spent $90m World Bank Education loan and other Education Funds.

Yet talk about CHANGE?

Lagosians, Nigerians, think!

What The Newspapers Forgot To Publish About Gov. Fashola!

Fashola claims he spent the sum of N1.5Billion of un-appropriated funds, without approval in demolishing and planting grass at Oshodi.

No newspaper reported this.

Between January and June 2009, Fashola's Chief of Staff and PAs spent N290 million in sending TEXT Messages and making phone CALLS on their lines.

Of course, no newspaper reported this.

P.S: Please, someone, kindly remind me – what did Stella Oduah do again? SMH.

Now, permit me to introduce Dr. Tunji Olowolafe. He is the owner of DEUX PROJECT LIMITED. He is Bola Tinubu and Babatunde Fashola’s crony. He is also their biggest proxy. Most contracts that Fashola awards to himself are done using DEUX PROJECT LIMITED. For instance, between January and August 2009, 11 out of 19 contracts in the Lagos State Ministry of health were awarded to this company. Out of N5.6Billion contract in the Ministry of Health, Olowolafe alone collected N5.1Billion worth and was paid 70 percent upfront in cash.

No newspaper or other news media reported this.

For a State that earns averagely N360Billion, annually, from taxes, isn’t it befuddling that its state-own University, LASU, cannot boast of a hostel facility? Yet, Fashola had the temerity to increase school fees from N25k to N250K.

No newspaper has ever written a report or editorial about this.

Remember the Bank of Industry (BOI) building at Lagos Island that partially collapsed in March, 2006?

On the 21st of September, 2008 the building was eventually demolished. Now guess how much Fashola spent to demolish it? A whooping N1.5Billion! Please, be reminded that this amount is just to demolish a building. Not to build one. Anyway, that isn’t the end of the story. The government of Lagos, a.k.a Fashola administration, later acquired the land (Layeni’s compound) adjacent to the demolished building in the “public interest”. He later resold it to his proxy Tunji Olowolafe.

No newspaper has ever reported this.

During the Bola Tinubu administration, he awarded the construction of City Hall for N2.3Billion. When Fashola later came on board, he increased the contract sum to N5.2Billion. This project was increased by 126%. The only input he eventually made to City Hall was to change the floor tiles to marble tiles.

The news media conveniently missed this news item.

The SSA (Media) to Fashola spends approximately N200million quarterly on press coverage and on news media editors. In other words, it is from this money that news media editors are paid to gag them from reporting anything unsavoury about Fashola or his administration. Note that this fund is outside the approved budget, but funded directly from the Governor's Office. Now, you know why no news media outlets broadcast or publish anything negative about Fashola and his administration. Also, propaganda against their political adversaries is fuelled by this largesse to the media authorities.

Of course, this is not the sort of news that Sahara Reporters report about.

The Critical Care unit at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) in Ikeja, built and equipped with state funds, is now owned personally by Fashola’s god-father, BolaTinubu. He put one Dr. Sikiru Tinubu, (a supposed cousin of his) to run the outfit. It is run as a private unit and the proceeds are pocketed by the duo. The unit charges its users exorbitantly and most Lagosians can hardly afford to pay its high charges. Most of the revenue is derived from fees paid by the State Government for patients referred there by its General Hospitals.

Oddly, this news item evaded all news media.

Fashola’s god-father, Bola Tinubu, converted all the plots of land where Lagos Polytechnic was located at Ikosi, near the old toll gate. He chased away the Polytechnic in 2006 and went ahead to allocate the choice plots to himself. The headquarters of Television Continental (TVC) and Radio Continental, which is owned by him, is currently located there. He deprived the youths of Lagos of decent education because of his primitive desire to acquire every real estate that he can lay his hands on in Lagos.

As to be expected,Television Continental (TVC) and Radio Continental did not report this.

Lagos State generates an Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) of an average of N25Billion to N30Billion Monthly (At least, that is what they declare. It could be more). The company that is contracted to collect IGR is Alpha Beta Consultants (ABC). The company is owned by Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The company collects 10% commission of taxes collected in Lagos. This amounts to between N2.5Billion to N3Billion monthly. On what basis is this 10% commission when the same work can be done by the Lagos State Board of Internal Revenue?

No newspaper has ever written a report or editorial about this.

Fashola administration once spent N1Billion Naira on “bangers” and fireworks during the New Year Crossover Night. This is a state that its university - Lagos State University (LASU) - cannot boast of a hostel facility.

No newspaper reported this.

Between January and June 2009, now guess how much Fashola claimed to have used to fuel the fleet of vehicles attached to his office alone?

Please, brace up for the figure.

N135 million!

This amounts to about N800, 000 per day. Interestingly, this was at a time that petrol was sold for N65 per litre, and we all know that government always gets it cheaper. But Fashola claimed to have bought it at N85 per litre.

This particular revelation surfaced at a time when members of the Lagos State House of Assembly were looking for a reason to impeach him in 2010. These “Honourables”, led by the Speaker of the house - Adeyemi Ikuforiji, are loyal to Bola Tinubu. They were angry with Fashola for daring to suggest a downward review of the 10% that their god-father, Tinubu, earns from all collected taxes in Lagos. Thus, this revelation came to light. However, when the rift between Tinubu and his prodigal god-son, Fashola, was settled, the case was magically swept under the rug.

Of course, this news never made the press.

During the Bola Tinubu administration, the LASU IBA road was awarded for N6.2Billion. In less than two weeks when Fashola came on board, the amount was jerked up to N10 Billion. The reason for this reckless increase was never stated.

No newspaper reported this.

Fashola awarded the contract for the reconstruction of part of Western Avenue (Funsho Williams Road). The road is a two kilometers road (between Abalti Barracks and Costain). The project was carried out by Julius Berger. This 2 KM road costs a staggering N7.7 Billion. Mind you, the contract didn’t include the construction of any bridge.

No newspaper reported this.

The prime land of 157 hectares with 2.5km of Atlantic beachfront valued at about N10billion and stolen by Tinubu from the communities of Siriwon, Igbekodo, Apakin, etc in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government and given to Mr. Ibukun Fakeye (his crony) to build a golf course and luxury villa with little or no compensation to the villagers. In addition, Tinubu paid $20million (N4billion) out of public treasury to Ibukun Fakeye to commence the project in late 2006. Fashola has since released additional funding for this project, which is not owned by the state government.

TVC and Radio Continental will never report this.

Fashola's wife travels abroad at least once in two months. Whenever she travels, she takes N30million per trip from the State coffers, apart from her monthly running cost.

No newspaper would report this.

What is the status of the Bus Assembly Company-a joint venture between the Lagos State Government and Marcopolo Bus Company of Brazil of which about N2Billion was paid to a foreign consultant and a Nigerian friend of Bola Tinubu in 2006? The objective of the project was to build a bus maintenance facility at the old LMTS yard at Cappa, Oshodi of which nothing has been done till date? Gov Fashola should update the public on this.

No newspaper has reported this.

Fashola awarded a contract to construct a road and drainage inside Gbagada General Hospital. Of course, the contract was awarded to his usual proxy, Dr. Tunji Olowolafe's company (DEUX Projects Limited). Now, guess the contract amount? Over N1.8 billion!

No newspaper editorial was ever written about this.

The Fashola administration boasts of restoring safety and security to Lagos State. However, what is their justification for the Fashola administration, within 6 months (January to June 2009) spending N420million on hiring private security to guard him despite his heavy investment in the Police Force through the State Security Trust Fund.

No newspaper would report this.

Over 70% of Lagos State Government contracts are concentrated in the hands of his proxy - Dr. Tunji Olowolafe. However, this is the clearest indication of the betrayal of trust by Governor Fashola. This is against the Oath of Office he swore to. It is a violation of Sections 14(4), 15(5) and 17(2a) of the 1999 Constitution on which social objective of a just, free and equitable social order is founded.

No newspaper would report this.

Obafemi Awolowo Way, Ikeja, is a road of about 1KM. The contract for the supply of dissel for the generators that power the street lights was awarded to a Bale (community ruler). The Bale is a very close ally of Fashola and Bola Tinubu. The Bale is paid N16m monthly.

No newspaper reported this.

In a State where pipe-borne water is almost non-existent, Fashola spent over N13Billion on planting grass and flowers in just a few places that constitute less than 1% of Lagos land mass. According to them, most of the money was spent in importing palm trees from Niger Republic, a sahel region belt, when Lagos is in the rain forest. This explains why most of the trees have dried up.

The news media conveniently didn’t get a hint of this news item.

The INDICATOR magazine, a magazine that focuses on the activities of the Lagos State government, is falsely passed off to the public as a private magazine. It is not. It is actually co-ordinated and published by Tunji Olowolafe and Hakeem Bello, SSA (Media) to BRF with government money.

Of course, no newspaper would report this.

Fashola’s god-father, Bola Tinubu, while he was the governor, allocated to himself the former Strabag yard that is located beside the Lagos State Secretariat at Alausa, Ikeja. The land has now been developed to bear one of his investments – The Ikeja Shopping Mall (Ikeja Shoprite).

No newspaper would report this.

In six months (between January and June 2009) Fashola spent money on several faceless organizations in the form of subventions, grants and donations, A total of N2 billion was given out in the process.

No newspaper would report this.

The 14-hectare Parkview Ikoyi Estate foreshore land reclaimed by Lagos State Government is now owned by Bola Tinubu.

No newspaper has reported this.

The contract for the installation of CCTVs on the street of Lagos was awarded to one of Fashola’s relatives. The relative claimed to be acting for CISCO. The contract was awarded for $62 million dollars, while the rejected quotation for the contract was $30 million. It is important to note that this was only a pilot scheme.

No newspaper reported this.

Prince Dipo Eludoyin is a personal friend and proxy for ex-Gov Tinubu and Gov. Fashola. They had arrangements with him (Eludoyin) for some prime lands in Lagos to be sold to him. These lands were eventually sold to him at ridiculously low prices. Some of the lands include: : The 3.8-hectare of land of Lagos State Fisheries office in VI (beside the Institute of Oceanography), the fishery landing jetty at Badore (where the Ilubirin fishermen were to be relocated); the entire Ogudu foreshore scheme initially earmarked for a low-cost housing scheme; the Ilubinrin housing estate (which used to house Lagos state civil servants and judges up till 2007); the former Julius Berger yard at Oko Orisan, Epe.

No newspaper would report this.

The entire maintenance contract and management of hospital equipment at the LASUTH was solely concessioned to Olowolafe’s company by the Tinubu administration at an annual payment of N850m paid upfront. The Fashola’s government retains this arrangement

No newspaper would report this.

Billions of naira have been paid not once, not twice for the development of Oyingbo market for which no appreciable level of work has been done? Oyingbo market is still in the same state that it has always been. The evidence is there for the public to see.

No newspaper would report this.

Fashola lambasts the federal government, consistently, for its failure to provide steady power supply.

No newspaper editorial has ever been written to ask him why he has failed, in 8 years, to provide Lagosians with pipe-borne water.

In a State where children are sitting on the floor in classrooms, where unemployment is rampant and poverty pervasive, Fashola paid the wife of a controversial pastor over N600 million, in two years, for Xmas Decorations for about six streets in Lagos.

No newspaper reported this.

A 250-hectare of land valued at about N35billion and strategically located adjacent to the Ajah-Badore junction on Lekki-Epe road. It was original earmarked to build a general hospital to serve the people of Eti-Osa. However, it was stolen by Tinubu and handed over to Trojan Estate Ltd – a company owned by Deji and Wale Tinubu. Today, that property has been developed to become what is today known as the Royal Garden Housing Estate. All these at the expense of the taxpayers of Lagos.

No news media ever reported this.

Bola Tinubu appropriated to himself a choice public property situated along the Lekki-Epe expressway. It was on this land that he built and part-owns the multi-billion Naira “Oriental Hotels” at the "Admiralty Circle" Maroko.

Media houses conveniently turned a blind eye to this news item.

In 2005-2006, the Cook County Hospital in Chicago, Illinois, USA donated a set of medical equipment to the Lagos State government free-of-charge. This was when Bola Tinubu was still the governor of Lagos State. Yet, records showed that a company belonging to Tunji Olowolafe was paid for it by way of Letters of Credit for the same equipment. The payment was made during Fashola’s administration.

No newspaper editorial was written about this.

Mrs. Animashahun heads the Lagos State Building Control Agency. She is a relative of the governor. Also, one Dr. Mrs. Adesina who calls the shots as the Special Adviser to the Governor is equally a relative of the Governor. One Ms. Azeez, a sister to the closest friend of the Governor, Demola Azeez, heads the EKO Project and directly reports to him. There is hardly any Agency in the State today that the Fashola family or Animashaun Family does not prominently feature. This is aside from the in-laws and many relatives of the Governor who returned from the United Kingdom to populate most Lagos State agencies.

No newspaper would report this.

In 2009, Fashola claimed to have bought two helicopters for an unbelievable N5Billion. It was purchased without a transparent bidding process. They also claimed that the helicopter was built for emergency evacuation, rescue or to even combat urban fire. This was a blatant lie. The helicopters were of generic design. Before public attention was brought to this grand heist by the Fashola administration, the seal of Lagos State was not on it. It wasn’t even in Lagos, but in the Niger-Delta making money for some private people in government. The fraudulent purported acquisition of 2 Bell 412 EP Series Helicopters from a Canadian firm constitute a flagrant violation of Section 123(1) and (2) and Section 120(4) of the 1999 Constitution.

Only ThisDay Newspaper reported this (See ThisDay December 19, 2009). However, the consequence of daring to report this, is the reason why the beautiful and imposing “ThisDay Dome”, an exquisite event place, situated along the Lekki Epe Expressway, Lekki, is no more there. Emperor Fashola literarily harassed them out of the state.

The Mayegun Scheme was sold to Olowolafe and other friends and cronies of Fashola against public interest without any independent valuation by relevant agency of government? Why is the size of the scheme shielded in secrecy? Why was N5.2 billion for which the land was sold untraceable? Where is the over N2 billion loan borrowed to sand-fill the place? What is the fate of the Tourism and Art-craft sellers chased away from the place?

......

banki:
its people like you that are the cause of nigerias problems because you keep denying the truth because you benefit .... its no secret that our military is ill equipped against the insurgents because the military hierarchy and the government is corrupt.

You claim no one was kidnapped then you claim you rescued the kidnapped girls then you claim you negotiated with the terrorsit and you will release the girls, you claim you know where the girls are....then we find out that they are all lies... and you claim CNN is the problem?

You are running out of excuses, and Nigerians and Myself are tired that's why I will VOTE YOU AND YOUR COHORTS OUT am sure there are millions of Nigerians that feel the same way

Mr Man, what are you spewing?
Can't you see the attached image? Is that not enough to tell you what the game plan is?
What is wrong with you people that the next thing you say is "someone is benefiting from bla bla"
Are you not benefitting from the sacrifice our boys are making?
Has ISIS not almost overrun Iraq after how many years of US training and funding?
Our Troops are winning the war and no amount a calumny can deter me.
I'm not privileged to be in the Army but I sit daily and imagine how patriotic our boys are. Supporting them against enemies like Boko Haram and the media they use is the least I can do.

God Bless our Troops!

I read through the thread about Nigerian Military condemnation of the CNN orchestrated interview.
I am worried so many of our youth do not understand what is happening.
I am worried that young people will insult their military men and women who go out to take on terrorists daily and many pay the ultimate price.

I must quickly point this out for some of you.
CNN or the West does not mean well for Nigeria.
It didn't start today. It's being for years now.
We seem to forget that US has contunously frustrated our efforts in getting arms to prosecute the war.
The same West will then go on with reports on how "Boko Haram is winning the war". How "Nigeria Military is under equipped".
We need to wake up and stop joining the enemies of this Nation to fight our own heroes.

Before any of you start telling me CNN is speaking the truth, pause and see the attached image. Does that look like a New Media who is reporting facts or just trying to create a state of chaos where Boko Haram has taken over? "Terrorists advance across WESTERN Nigeria"
This week we received heavy weaponry from China, Russia and Belarus. Do not forget we went to those nations because the West refused to arm us.

Also, concerning Baga, I saw satellite images being spread by US interests claiming the massacre.
Like someone asked, why is the tech only used to show massacre and not used to help find the Chibok girls.
If the technology can capture "fire scars" as someone explained, can't it be used to tell when Boko Haram is moving in large numbers? Or at least can't it be used to locate the girls? We gave US the chance to come look for the girls, what did we get? They went with report against our troops.

And for the records, ISIS just last year Overran a US trained and funded Iraqi Military but our military has kept Boko Haram confined to North East and pushing them further.

By the grace of God, we will decimate Boko Haram soon. And we will also hear western media cry about genocide but it won't matter then.

God bless the Nigerian Military.
God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

He goes from state to state without manifesto. Nothing different, just the useless rhetoric of "fight corruption", the smae rubbish he said in 1983 then went after people who criticized his high handedness.
But what do I expect from a primary school dropout?

APC Members Are Leaders Of #bringbackourgirls Group

A former chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, and current chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief Audu Ogbeh has revealed that members of the APC are leaders of the BringBackOurGirls group.
The BringBackOurGirls group is a group calling on the Federal Government and international community to step up their efforts in rescuing the over 219 Chibok schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram on 15 April in Borno state.
Ogbeh made the revelation during his remark at the declaration of General Muhammadu Buhari for 2015 presidential election.
“I want to thank members of the BringBackOurGirls group which is being led by members of our party,” said Ogbeh.
The group and its leaders have however on several occasions denied being part of any political party saying their concern is primarily on the rescue of the girls.
Prominent among the leaders of the group is Oby Ezekwesili, a former minister of education.

Ayatullah:

You failed woefully in your response.............your shallow brain could not pick the fact that the army do not have to " study the video" if indeed the army is SURE Shekau 'impostor' was killed in battle. Meanwhile taking out Shekau is not the big deal. The big deal is making sure Nigerians live in peace and definitely without a blood thirsty YOU.

You are doubling as a terrorist and a mad person at the same time.

Did you not read where the Army said Shekau was killed last year, the impostor this year and they are still going ahead with the campaign without distractions?
As we speak they are working hard to take back some villages overran by these terrorist and you sit at home with your sorry a55 giving orders and spewing trash.
I've told you and will always say it to your likes. We will take out any impostor and anyone who collaborates with Shekau on ground and on social media space. We are coming!

DaBullIT:



Bros , Do you really think AFP, Yahoo News, CNN and MSNBC all are as stupid as Sahara reporters and Nigerian media / If you do , I am sorry for you , If you have VLC media player, download the video, convert , take a still image of the recent video and compare to the previous ones, a previous video where Shekau said he wasn't dead, i think last year and this one is comparable . Admittedly , the Video is not dated, but if your username is anything to go by, you can figure this out .


Finally, there are videos circulating on FB , videos of Boko Haram's rampage , AA GUNS , Armored Tanks, boys as young as 12 years old carrying AK 47 , chasing Soldiers and chanting Allahu Akbar , in Funke Akindele's Voice ; Shey na child play you think say dey happen for there //


Granted ,I am not an expert and if you notice what i post on here i don't sheepishly follow the news someone else brings, i research and state my opinion ,

I know for a fact that Nigerian Army is not reliable except when they want to torture innocent citizens

I know that Nigerian Army lied about killing shekau once

they said they killed his IT specialist / Journalist , These are people they , the Army can not identify ,i mean in a country where there's no common database or DNA verification they just label dead bodies

I have seen Videos of Army slaughtering suspects with cutlasses

I know for a fact that a few days after the claimed clamp down on the insurgents , Over 200 people were killed in different parts of the North

I know for a fact that Saboteurs are in the Army and they would have tipped off shekau about a raid

I know for a fact that people don't just over run an army barracks and stroll out with armored tanks and weapons, Armored tanks are not designed like normal cars, it takes expertise , Do you get my point


With all i have Listed , I hope i have been able to convince you without insults to be open minded and to always doubt your government / Nigerian Army .


Thanks

Actually, those media houses you mentioned are worse than Sahara Reporters. If you followed the Arab Spring, Ukraine uprising etc, you'll know what I mean.

DaBullIT:
We meet again he he he , seriously, do you have relative in the NA // you seem to be attacking anyone who does not believe the Army really killed shekau

No I attack anyone who's a sympathizer of Boko Haram!

ayukdaboss: ...

I'm done with you.
But before I leave you to your haramite celebrations, the Army is coming for whoever assumes the title, Shekau.

If that one is killed and another assumes the role, he'll be killed too. If it gets to your turn, you'll be taken out too.

ayukdaboss: Quote anywhere where I boldly stated that the videos are real. I only stated reasons why I feel they should be right from my studies.

From all your comments and in other threads. I've refrained from mentioning you because I saw through you. I only did now to expose you.
You go from thread to thread signing Boko Haram praise and insulting the Nigerian Army.
You analyzed the Boko Haram videos and "they are right" and then analyze the Nigerian Army reports and "they are liars".
I don't need a crystal ball to show me a Boko haram sympathizer and enemy of the Nigeria.

ayukdaboss: I'm just putting it to you that scrutinizing and analysing information from the NA before making my judgements doesn't automatically make me or anybody who does same a BH Supporter.

Yeah, you can "scrutinize and analyse" Nigerian Army videos but will swallow hook line and sinker every video from Boko Haram as perfect.
Do you need to be told where your allegiance lies?

ayukdaboss: I've watched this video quite sometime ago. This was what made it very clear that it wasn't the Shekau in the recently released YouTube videos this year. His facial structure, his almost bald head etc. Remember when I said I analyse all the details

Now you really are showing yourself as a die hard boko Haramite.
This video was released days after the Shekau impostor was killed in September. Those are pictures after he was killed. Use google, it's free.

Concerning the Cameroon Army. I told you I saw the post the same day it was posted and people commented asking if the Cameroon Army has killed Shekau.
Several hours later, Nigerian media houses started reporting it. And again, it was the usual suspects who reported same.

See the screen shot below from the facebook page: Armée Camerounaise with the post.
They deleted the post when it started causing controversy.
Note also that they didn't write anything in that post. Just the picture.
Lastly, that page is not Cameroonian Army official page.

ayukdaboss: Answer my question. So somebody deemed it fit to just sit down and start spreading a rumour that the Cameroon Army had killed Shekau?

Well we've strayed a long long way from our previous argument. I'll just put it to you that scrutinizing statements released by the NA doesn't make me a BH supporter like you've been brainwashed to think. Our arguments are becoming unnecessary to me.

Here's the facebook page: Armée Camerounaise

They took down the post after some days.

Here's the video before they finally killed him:

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

Remember Cameroon speaks French and not English.

ayukdaboss: Answer my question. So somebody deemed it fit to just sit down and start spreading a rumour that the Cameroon Army had killed Shekau?

Well we've strayed a long long way from our previous argument. I'll just put it to you that scrutinizing statements released by the NA doesn't make me a BH supporter like you've been brainwashed to think. Our arguments are becoming unnecessary to me.

Yes. I actually saw the Facebook Page. In fact, they didn't write anything on the said post. They just uploaded the picture.
This was the same day with the kondunga battle. The Nigerian Army didn't rush to give the news because they had to do investigations.

See picture below and tell me it's the same person in both...

ayukdaboss: So what's your point? That the story is either propaganda or a hoax?

read my last reply again

ayukdaboss: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/09/killed-shekau-nigeria-cameroon/

http://www.punchng.com/news/controversy-over-alleged-shekaus-killing/

http://www.cameroononline.org/cameroon-military-kill-abubakar-shekau-boko-haram-leader/

Please let's not resort to calling each other names. I thought we were replying ourselves responsibly here.

The video of the dead Shekau you watched, was it streamed from the NA website? No, but yet you believed it. I've listed our most credible news sources here in Nigeria including a Cameroon website.

You still haven't said anything. The video of Shekau impostor killed was given by NA to media agencies. Did Cameroon Army do the same?
In the footage, you could hear a Nigerian Army officer shouting in pidgin English. Cameroon is French speaking country!
Cameroonian Army has channels they communicate through. Can you provide one where they claimed they killed the Shekau impostor?
Stop giving me reports from media houses that don't do any form of investigative journalism.

ayukdaboss: I repeat..I'm very objective on these issues and I scrutinize them instead of typing "kudos to the Nigerian Army" and going my way. I dont allow myself to get brainwashed like most Nigerians. That doesn't make me a BH supporter. I don't care whatever name you call me.


I wish you knew who I really was to call me Boko Haram gang

Are you okay at all?

Quoting a website to show "Cameroonian Army" made a statement.
Are you this daft? The Cameroon Army don't have official channels right?

I've seen that video. After seeing that video, if you still think Shekau is alive, you need help urgently or you are Boko Haram member.

1. The impostor here is totally different from the last and not close to the real Shekau that was killed June last year.
2. His beard was almost like the type we see in Nollywood.
3. He couldn't even handle weapons properly.
4. The video is not dated, it could have been last year or any other time.
5. Tell your "Shekau" the Army is coming for him too!

Ayatullah:
THE ARMY HAS MISFIRED
SHEKAU! SHEKAU! SHEKAU!..............The Nigeria Army misfired by that statement: "We are still studying the video........." If the army is so sure that Shekau is dead what is there to study in the video?

Did you not read the part where they said they'll take out whoever takes up the name.
They will take out the new impostor including you if you line up behind Boko Haram.

ayukdaboss: I see things how they are dude. I don't let anybody deceive me. Be it any political party or even the Nigerian Army. Remember the NA Army claimed they had found the Chibok girls 3 days after they were kidnapped? So why should I swallow every information from them without scrutinizing it?

When news was released about the death of Shekau I got the pictures of the alleged dead Shekau and scrutinized it with the Shekau seen in previously released Youtube videos and it was very obvious that wasn't Shekau...like crystal clear.

Remember the NA and Cameroon Army both claimed to have killed Shekau at ifferent locations the same period. What a big joke!!

Now I'm being objective on every news released by these people and you're terming me a BH Supporter? Please cut me some slack.

See things how they are my left leg.
Cameroon never claimed they killed him. That Facebook page is not an official page.
Add to that the Nigeria Army gave us a video of the impostor still alive before he was finally killed. They still have the corpse.
Some of your fellow APC Haramites actually cried "extra-judicial" killing that night.
You have access to google, do your search.

You are not being objective but been Boko Haramic. I've seen your enthusiasm about the recent fake Shekau video.
You have been going from thread to thread proclaiming your support for Boko Haram and your hate for The Nigerian Army
I've also analyzed the videos and pictures. The last one killed was not even Shekau. That was his impostor.
You and your Boko Haram gang are the only ones who don't want him dead.
Don't worry, this new one will be killed too!
For as long as they can double, they'll be killed as well. Until they run out of Shekau. Nonsense!

...double post

ayukdaboss: I tell you you just made some sense

He will definitely make "some sense" to you since he's fellow haramite.
Read my reply to him.

BabaO2: why cant more advanced Taliban clone osama bin laden after his death? clueless military under clueless government. shior

Dear Haramite,

Osama Bin Laden was not in Taliban. You need to go get your "clue".
Secondly, the 2 groups don't function the same way.
Boko Haram does that because that's the only way they can keep their fighters together.
Remember many already gave themselves both to Nigerian troops and Cameroon?
That's what they try to counter. Some of you are too dull to even understand anything.

robinhoodd2: "So, while waiting to see the new video before any further statement, our message to them is that justice will be served to whoever bears that name or designation and whoever engages in the act."


"The video also did not make any reference to anything that has happened since the impostor’s reported death.

It is also noteworthy that the air plane said to be mentioned in the video had been missing before he was killed. It should not surprise anybody if the terrorists decide to manipulate pictures, clone another Shekau or upload a pre-recorded video all in a bid to prove invincible."

THESE STATEMENTS FROM THE NIGERIAN ARMY ARE NOT ADDING UP EITHER, YOU ARE YET TO "SEE" THE VIDEO, YET YOU KNOW IT CONTENT.
Meanwhile, Up NIGERIA DOWN BOKO!!!

Hope you didn't miss this part:

" From immediate observation and what some online news outlets claimed to have seen.."

What he's saying is that they have observed reports from various media claiming to have seen the video.

DONGOYARO1: Isnt it the same Defence Headquarters that lied us that the Chibok girls have been rescued?

Isnt it the same Defence Headquarters that lied to us that the Haramites didnt capture Bama only for Boko fighters to use Bama as a FOB to launch frontal assault on Konduga?

Don't worry, as many Shekau's you guys produce, they'll be killed until you can't produce another one.

1. No face was shown.
2. The parts shown are too few to be parts of Alpha Jet missing
3. The jet was missing before the impostor was killed.
4. Those are the APC Boko Haram wing in that video. They cannot tell me they are celebrating "victory" but afraid to show their faces.
5. OP, I hope you noticed that the video was uploaded on Youtube with TVC account? This media is owned by Tinubu.
6. May I know how Tinubu/TVC got the video? The AFP report has Kano (SLS and Kwakwanso is there. Another APC state) as place of release. Why Kano, TVC and being used and celebrated by APC supporters is anyone's guess.

ATTENTION: THE PURPORTED SHEKAU VIDEO IN CIRCULATION

The Defence Headquarters is studying the claims made in the video purportedly released by the terrorists showing their leader Abubakar Shekau as dismissing his death. From immediate observation and what some online news outlets claimed to have seen, the video did not indicate when it was shot neither did it show any proof of life or currency such as screen time or date. The video also did not make any reference to anything that has happened since the impostor’s reported death.

It is also noteworthy that the air plane said to be mentioned in the video had been missing before he was killed. It should not surprise anybody if the terrorists decide to manipulate pictures, clone another Shekau or upload a pre-recorded video all in a bid to prove invincible.

As far as we are concerned, the individual who was appearing in video and claiming to be the leader of the terrorist group was killed in the Kondunga battle in September. The resemblance of the corpse and that of the eccentric character was incontrovertible. His identity was equally corroborated by people who knew him before we announced his death.

So, while waiting to see the new video before any further statement, our message to them is that justice will be served to whoever bears that name or designation and whoever engages in the act.

Chubhie: Nna biko, make una try dey spell the name correctly. Tis spelt CHIBUIKE and not chibike!!!!!

No mind the impostor my brother. They think they can use Igbo name to deceive us.

It is obvious there are those who are trying hard to make Boko Haram look invincible.

It is also shocking to see certain people almost literally jumping for joy about the news that Shekau is alive.

I commend our troops and may they kill anyone who takes on that name!
May our troops continue to kill them until they run out of "Shekau".

donphilopus: Is this not the same Prof. Wole Soyinka that Aljharem was blasting the other day?! When have y'all started taking him seriously?! We keep seeing this trash on the pages of the media, yet they've not been able to do anything to show that he truly diverted the suit cases. Or, would they tell us that they're still probing the case?!

When someone is giving his opinion is different from when he's recalling events from history.
You can't change history whether or not you like it.
And please. That is just one point in many.
You can do justice by taking on all points raised.
