The Defence Headquarters on Thursday said the claim that the Chadian military had conducted air strikes against six terrorist camps in Nigeria was not correct. This is contained in a statement issued in Abuja by the Director of Defence Information, Maj.-Gen. Chris Olukolade. Olukolade said the fact was that the Nigerian Airforce surveillance mission identified targets tagged: Camp 6 around Bosso town which was not within Nigerian territory “and alerted the partners, accordingly’’. He said the places reported to have been struck by the Chadians were therefore most likely to be in Niger Republic and not Nigeria as widely reported in the international media. ”Although the terms of the multilateral and bilateral understanding with partners in the war against terror allow some degree of hot pursuit against the terrorists, the territory of Nigeria has not been violated as insinuated in the reports circulated in some foreign media,” he said. Olukolade said the Nigerian military would continue to cooperate with partners in the mission to exterminate or contain terrorists strictly in conformity with existing terms of the Concept of Operation at strategic, operational or tactical levels. He said it was however important that issues were “accurately reported while avoiding misleading or unnecessary sensationalism from any quarter’’. |

The investigation into the awarding of the 2018 and 2022 World Cups has already detected 104 instances of suspicious activity in Swiss bank accounts. Swiss authorities last month seized documents and data from Fifa headquarters as part of their enquiry into allegations of bribery relating to the voting process that saw the next two tournaments given to Russia and Qatar, respectively. Swiss attorney general Michael Lauber has now revealed the scope of the investigation, stressing that it could take years before the case is concluded. “I am well aware of the enormous public interest in our investigation," he told reporters at a press conference in Bern. "Equally enormous is the public interest in an independent criminal procedure. “Our investigation is of great complexity and quite substantial. "To give you an example: The Swiss attorney general’s office has seized around nine terrabytes of data. "So far, our investigative team has obtained evidence concerning 104 banking relations. "Be aware that every banking relation represents several bank accounts. "We are faced with a complex investigation with many international implications. The prosecution is ongoing and will take time. "It would not be professional to communicate at this moment a detailed timetable. The world of football needs to be patient. By its nature, this investigation will take more than the legendary 90 minutes." The Swiss investigation into the 2018 and 2022 World Cups is running independently from the FBI- led inquiry into allegations of alleged bribery and money-laundering dating back to 1991 that has already led to the arrests of 14 Fifa officials. Indeed, the game's governing body has already insisted that the Swiss investigation stems from its handing over of information accrued by Michael Garcia during the compilation of his report on the votes. Lauber corroborated Fifa's claim that, at present, it is the "injured party" - but added that the situation could change depending upon the outcome of his team's investigation. "For the time being Fifa is the injured party, that is true," he said. "They filed the report and this is the actual status as we conduct investigations against unknown persons. "We didn’t start the investigation against Fifa. We started the investigations based on that report and based on a mutual legal assistance request fro |
