Nairaland GeneralBomb Rocks Army Barracks In Plateau by Wheezcarter(op): 11:11pm On Apr 25, 2015
An explosion has occurred at a military facility in

witnesses and a security source said. The bomb hit the Nigerian Army’s 3rd Armoured
Division barracks at Bassa Local Government Area of
Plateau State, at about 9:45 a.m. on Saturday. The casualty rate was unclear as the police could not be
immediately reached. Plateau State has witnessed a series of deadly bomb
attacks in recent months. A blast at a bus station in Jos,
Plateau, late February killed 13 people and injured 14
others.

Nairaland GeneralDoctors Find ‘evil Twin’ Inside Woman’s Brain by Wheezcarter(op): 8:53pm On Apr 23, 2015
Doctors in Los Angeles, USA, have found an extremely
rare embryonic twin complete with bone, hair and teeth
inside a woman’s skull. Yamini Karanam, 26, from Indiana, sought medical
help last September after she started having
difficulty comprehending things she read and heard.
“If a couple of people were talking in the room, I
wouldn’t understand what was happening. I just didn’t
imagine any of this,” Yamini said. Yamini Karanam found out her ‘tumour’ was actually
her embryonic twin Doctors soon discovered a tumor in her brain. But when she
underwent surgery, the surgeon found something startling.
The tumor was actually a teratoma – the woman’s embryonic
twin that never developed. Surgeons removed the teratoma and Ms Karanam is
expected to make a full recovery in three weeks.
Ms Karanam jokingly said it was her “evil twin sister
who’s been torturing me for the past 26 years”. Her
surgeon, Dr. Hrayr Shahinian, was also surprised when
he found Karanam’s embryonic twin, he said: “This is
my second one, and I’ve probably taken out 7,000 or 8,000
brain tumors. Stories of embryonic twins being found by accident are
certainly unusual, but they’re not unheard of. A parasitic twin (also known as an asymmetrical or
unequal conjoined twin) is the result of the processes that
also produce vanishing twins and conjoined twins, and
may represent a continuum between the two.

CrimeChibok Girls Are Held In Gwoza – Woman Freed By Boko Haram Claims by Wheezcarter(op): 8:33pm On Mar 25, 2015
A 56-year-old woman who was recently released by Boko
Haram said that the Chibok girls abducted in April
2014 are being held in Gwoza town in Borno State. According to the International Center for Investigative
Reporting, icirnigeria.org, Mbutu Papka was
kidnapped in July, 2014 and held by the insurgents in
the same location as the abducted Chibok girls.
Reportedly, the abducted girls were being kept under
very tight security in a house in Gwoza. Papka said that nobody was allowed near the fenced
building where the abducted girls are being held under
24-hour security. “Even the heavily armed guards who
keep watch over the girls round the clock are only
allowed to go into the house to deliver food, water and
other supplies to them,” she said. After Boko Haram attacked Gwoza on July 4, 2014,
Mbutu Papka along with others was taken to Mdita, a
remote village near the notorious Sambisa Forest, bordering
Askira Uba, Damboa and Gwoza. The abductees
reportedly were kept in Mdita for five months before
being transferred to Gwoza, where they were held for three more months till Nigerian army released them on
March 15. Though Papka has never seen the Chibok girls, she
explained that people in the area pointed at the heavily
guarded flat and said the girls were inside. “Because access to the house was restricted the girls
apparently did their own cooking and chores by
themselves,” she said “In the camp at Gwoza, there were clear demarcations
between where people were kept. The Chibok girls, other
captives and Boko Haram members and their family
members all had their separate areas secured, though the
security in the area where the girls are kept is visibly
different and much tighter,” she added. According to Papka, the conditions under which the
captives in Gwoza were kept were fairly tolerable and
far better than the first location, as there was water
supply. “When we got to Gwoza, things changed because there were
facilities there and the place was 10 times better than
Mdita. We had a normal life in Gwoza, except the
trauma of living in captivity. Whatever we wanted to eat,
they were provided. They would bring water, firewood,
etc., and leave them outside,” she explained. Mbutu Papka Speaking about living conditions at Mdita, she
recalled that the place stank and maggots were everywhere
because of lack of water. She also said that she met other
abducted people including women and children, among
whom were many under the age of seven. Because of the terrible conditions and absence of health
care facilities in the camp, many people fell sick and
some died. “There was a Redeemed Christian Church of God
pastor who was killed during the attack on our village,
and his wife was abducted with us. She died at Mdita
due to the condition of the place and the death of her
husband,” she told. According to Papka, she and the other women were not
raped or assaulted, though she could not speak for the
Chibok girls because nobody was allowed to see or interact
with them. She also said that the Boko Haram men lived with their
wives and children in the Gwoza camp, but kept away
from others and cooked their own meals. On March 15, 2015, after three months in Gwoza, Papka
and 10 other older women were taken from the camp, herded
into a vehicle and driven to Izge, a village, from where
she was taken to her own village on a motorcycle because the
road is bad. Details on the ICiR. Gwoza town was first captured by the insurgents in
August last year, following a heavy gun attack by
insurgents who hoisted the sect’s flag and declared it the
headquarters of the group’s Caliphate. Over 12,000 persons were displaced from the town and
repeated attempts by the military to recapture it in the past
have failed largely due to the hilly terrain, which
provide hiding places for the terrorists from which to
operate. This is not the first time that released Boko Haram
abductees have claimed to know where the Chibok girls are
being held. Emman Shehu, a founding member of the Bring Back
Our Girls group, told our reporter during the week that a
young girl who was released last week and an elderly
woman had previously claimed that the Chibok girls
were being kept in Damboa and Sambisa area.

PoliticsCan A Certificate Stop Buhari’s Swearing In As President? by Wheezcarter(op): 8:18pm On Mar 25, 2015
A Federal High Court in Abuja has adjourned all
the suits challenging Muhammadu Buhari’s
eligibility until April 22 and 23. Naij.com guest
author Bayo Olupohunda on possible reasons for postponing the “Buhari eligibility suit” until after the
election, and the inextinguishable APC-PDP rivalry. It is four days to one of the most important elections in
Nigeria’s history. But the possibility of the APC’s
Muhammadu Buhari, a leading opposition candidate in
the presidential election, emerging as president is hanging
on a thread. Some observers have already pointed out that, by
adjourning the suit on Buhari’s certificate till April 22
and 23, a clear three weeks after the March 28 election,
those working to deny Buhari’s right of becoming the
first opposition candidate to rule in Nigeria’s
democracy have another joker up their sleeve. The above reasoning might sound more like a conspiracy
theory. But how, then, can you explain the adjournment of
the “certificate suit” until after the election? What is the
relevance of the adjournment? Why wasn’t the issue
struck out completely? Are the “certificate suit” promoters waiting to use the court
again to stop Buhari’s swearing in? Many Nigerians consider “the certificate issue” to be one
of the many antics of the ruling PDP to make sure
Buhari does not cause problem for the incumbent
President Goodluck Jonathan, as the two candidates are
running neck and neck. It was curious enough that the suit filed three months ago
would come up on the eve of an important election. Those
pushing for Buhari certificate to be an issue have
apparently realized that a disqualification before
election may cause chaos and mar the conduct, and,
therefore, reasoned it would be better to wait until after election to strike again. For those who are not aware, the suit that was supposed to be
determined today was first filed on January 26, 2015, by
Chukwunweike Okafor, a lawyer, who asked the court to
declare Buhari ineligible to contest over his alleged
failure to submit his school certificate along with his
Form CF001 to the INEC. He argued that Buhari’s failure to submit his school
certificate contravened provisions of sections 131 and 318
of the 1999 Constitution, and section 31(3) of the
Electoral Act, 2010. Okafor is urging the court to hold
that Buhari’s claim in his Form CF001 that his West
African school certificate was with the Nigerian army is false, thereby disqualifying him. Currently, there are about 10 suits instituted against
Buhari’s eligibility to participate in the presidential
election. In spite of the controversy that has surrounded
the certificate saga, the Federal High Court in Abuja,
under Justice Ademola, seems poised to conduct the
hearing even after the election have been concluded — a situation that now appears bizarre. Given that there are just few days left to the
presidential election, given the latest court adjournment,
the issue of Buhari’s certificate will continue to generate
controversy. Grapevine telegraph is suggesting that the
PDP, jittery of defeat, are using every means to stop
Buhari from assuming the presidency. Responding to a question in January, candidate Buhari
dismissed a growing fear that the issue bothers him. He
said: “Well, I am not surprised. This is Nigeria. If
people are serious about this issue, they ought to have
listened to the legal adviser of the Independent
National Electoral Commission. This is the first time the INEC by law has got those documents, and they
said they have got them. So, anybody who has any
different view should go to court.” Those who seek to disqualify Buhari say he is
ineligible to be a candidate because he has failed to
render his school certificate examination result — a basic
requirement to be a candidate in the election. In response,
Buhari’s camp released his Cambridge School
Certificate result. But the doubtful ones refused to be pacified. They questioned the name difference in
Mohammadu and Muhammed. At a point in the
controversy, Buhari had adduced the reason why he did
not submit his result to he INEC. In an affidavit, he
said: “I am the above-named person and deponent to this
affidavit therein. All my academic qualifications documents as filled in my presidential form, President
APC/001/2015, are currently with the Secretary,
Military Board, as of the time of presenting this
affidavit. The affidavit is made in good faith and
for record purpose.” The military institution denied being in possession of the
certificate. But this denial is offbeat to me. To claim
that a man who rose through the ranks to become a general
does not have a certificate beats the imagination. Another
bone of contention also bothered on the subjects taken at the
time the examination was written. Buhari’s detractors questioned the listing of the Hausa language as a subject
in the examination. But Cambridge did indeed confirm
that not only was a Buhari a candidate in the examination,
Hausa was also listed as a subject. As the controversy rages, Buhari has explained that he
attended the Provincial Secondary School, Katsina,
with many Nigerians who eventually rose to prominence,
like the late General Shehu Yar’Adua, former chief
of staff at the Supreme Headquarters, and Justice
Umaru Abdullahi, former president of the Court of Appeal. Buhari has also claimed to have sat for the 1961
University of Cambridge/WASC examination (with
the examination number 8280002), which he reportedly
passed in the second division. Why has the issue refused to go away? Many
Nigerians, including the APC camp, believe the
ruling party PDP is behind the attempt to rubbish
Buhari and stop him from giving Jonathan a run for
his money. Given that Cambridge has confirmed Buhari
as candidate in examination; given also that he also released his statement of result, why the insistence to
disqualify him? His detractors said for failing to
submit his result to the INEC, he stands disqualified.
They also cited the fact that he committed perjury by
alleging that his certificate was with the military. What I find odd is that Buhari has been a perennial
candidate for the opposition. He contested for the
presidential elections in 2003, 2007, 2011, and is now running
in 2015. Why was the issue not brought up in all the years
he has been a candidate? He has contested for a record
three times before now, why was the certificate thing not an issue? If, indeed, Buhari did not submit his certificate
before, a basic requirement of the law, does that not point to
flaws in the system? On the other hand, why all the fuss if the possession of
a school certificate is a basic requirement, and Buhari has
shown evidence of being a certificate holder — a claim
confirmed by Cambridge? Let’s just hope the ongoing
court proceeding is not an attempt to cause disruption in the
electoral process and stop Buhari from being sworn in case of his victory. We have seen how injunctions and court
judgement procured through the “backdoor” almost
marred the 1993 election. Already, the APC has raised
concern that the ongoing court case is an attempt by the
PDP to scuttle Buhari’s ambition. Is the claim true? It will be interesting to see how the APC responds to the
latest development. The coming days are poised to be
action-packed Nollywood tragicomedy. Nigerians are waiting for the outcome of Buhari’s “court
saga” with baited breath. For now, at least, they can be sure
that Buhari will be on the ballot on March 28.
