Soldiers from an undercover unit used by the British army in Northern Ireland killed unarmed civilians, former members have told BBC One’s Panorama.

Speaking publicly for the first time, the ex-members of the Military Reaction Force (MRF), which was disbanded in 1973, said they had been tasked with “hunting down” IRA members in Belfast.

The former soldiers said they believed the unit had saved many lives.

The Ministry of Defence said it had referred the disclosures to police.

The details have emerged a day after Northern Ireland’s attorney general, John Larkin, suggested ending any prosecutions over troubles-related killings that took place before the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998.

The proposal has been criticised by groups representing relatives of victims.

Panorama has been told the MRF consisted of about 40 men handpicked from across the British army.

Before it was disbanded 40 years ago, after 18 months, plain-clothes soldiers carried out round-the-clock patrols of west Belfast – the heartland of the IRA – in unmarked cars. READ MORE: http://www.thenationonlineng.net/new/undercover-soldiers-killed-unarmed-civilians-belfast/

Nigeria is being positioned to eradicate polio next year ahead of, the 2018 deadline by the World Health Organisation (WHO).

Computer magnate, Bill Gates and formost industralist Aliko Dangote gave this assurance in Lagos in a report of how their collaboration through Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and Dangote Foundation had helped polio eradication in the country.

According to them, total number of polio cases was 112 last year but had dropped to just 51 cases as at this year. “This is through aggressive campaigns, moving from state to state and local government to local government in Nigeria; paying vaccinators to move around and reach kids. Traditional leaders have been fantastic by getting people out to participate in the immunisation exercise.

“We are rest assured that the battle against polio in the county will be won. Next year we will be celebrating total elimination of polio. Though rejection of the vaccine is a challenge and not the biggest challenge, we are concerned about the virus and how to exterminate same from Nigeria. We are happy to note that Type 3 is no more in Nigeria and Type 1 will be exterminated finally,” they said.

Dangote said: “My Foundation will be 20 years old next year. It was registered in 1993 but commenced operation in 1994. We are planning to do a big endowment on Education; Health and national relief. We are set to go round the country and not just a locality so many can benefit through the foundation.

“The Foundation was conceived during the structural adjustment programme (SAP) when many were complaining of the economy problem my business was recording huge successes. I was touched. So I was inspired to start the Foundation so others can benefit.”

Gates said he is happy that Nigeria is steadily winning the war against polio. “Many things are happening in Nigeria positively and Dangote is one of such. I and Alhaji Dangote have put together the sum of $6billion to purchase vaccines in a bid to eradicate polio from Nigeria, nay Africa. It would be a wonderful idea to eradicate polio from the whole world,” he said. SOURCE: http://www.thenationonlineng.net/new/gates-dangote-raise-fund-end-polio-nigeria/

NICE Piece! #keepitup Mr Black Tooth, oo sori., Mr Blue Tooth

EVENING JOKE:
why do some pastors like to put
somebody into trouble?
I was in church one day when
pastor said:
"It's time to say hello to your
neighbours, shake hands and lets
get to know each other."
I said hello to the person sitting to
my left and to the one sitting to
my right.. We introduced our
selves and both said they were
Egyptians.
Preaching time came and pastor
decided to preach from Exodus
14:13.. Telling us about how God
saved the Israelites from
Egyptians.
My people, remember that there
were Egyptians on my left and
right. I was thinking to myself
"How do these two Egyptians feel
knowing that their people are the
bad guys in this Bible verse"
Well, I just sit-down my own je-je-je.
The next thing oo!!, pastor
shouted:
"The Egyptians made the people
of God to suffer for years!!!,
I said they made them suffer!!!,
Turn to your left and to your
right!!! And tell your neighbour!!!,
The Egyptians you see today!!!,
You shall see no more!!!"
My people, if you were in my
position will you say the word?

BY EMMA UNA
CALABAR — A newly married couple, who
packed to their house soon after wedding
have been reportedly killed by generator
fumes in Ikot Omin on the outskirts of
Calabar, the Cross River State capital.
The couple, Bassey Effiong (27), his wife,
Glory (21) and her younger sister, Emem
(16), were said to have packed to the
house yet to be completed by Bassey.
“When he got married, he decided to work
on one of the rooms and moved in, while
hoping to gradually complete the house,”
Mike, a neighbour to the couple told
Vanguard.
Generator-set
However, tragedy struck, Sunday night,
when the couple turned on their
generating set and placed it on the
corridor close to the room, where they
slept but fume from the generating set
was said to have subsequently gained
entry into the room in large quantity and
suffocatded the couple along with Emem,
the wife’s younger sister.
They were discovered dead several hours
later by a naval officer, David Ekanem,
Bassey’s uncle, who said he went there
after he called Bassey’s mobile number
several times without response and on
getting there at 5 pm, Monday, he met
the tragic sight.
“I knocked several times on the door but
there was no answer, so I had to force the
door open. It was then I saw my nephew
and his wife along with the young girl lying
dead,” the Naval officer said.
Spokesman of the Cross River State
Police Command, Mr Hogan Bassey, said
the matter was reported by the naval
officer and the bodies evacuated to the
Infectious Disease Hospital mortuary,
Edgerly Road, Calabar.
