petition now over 32,000. El Rufai is on long thing. Who noticed he was on low key on the Edo Election since this petition. Now we know our politicians are afraid of losing their visiting HOSPITALS abroad. lol

Just 2 days ago. Reno Omokri petitioned EU and UK Governments to place travel ban on El Rufai and the petition supporters soared to 19,000 within 3 days. What do you think is responsible for this feat? is it just because El Rufai is bad or what? You can see the link below and see for yourself. Positive comments is welcome. No bashing please.

The petition on change.org had reached 20,200. does it means, the EU and UK will act based on numbers ? or it has to get to a particular threshold fotthem to act? Anyone with the criteria can tell us for clarity

[quote author=kingzizzy post=93738903]

I doubt that very much because the state Governor, Ortom, has already condemned the action of the military. He wouldn't do that if he was part of the plan.[/quote

In saner climes, the Army will come out to defend their action by telling us why/ how he was killed. We normally hear bandits neutralised, Boko Haram repelled, but Gana is already disarmed, what we are supposed to hear is that he was ARRESTED and whisked away, not Killed. Now more bloodshed could start in Benue if his followers start targeting Innocent, Fulani heardsmen could start rampaging as Gana was acclaimed to be the one repelling them. Smh for my Country

Woke up this morning to the Killing of Gana, the most dreaded Militia leader in Benue state and felt concerned for my Country, its people and Government. The story had it that he was given amnesty by the state Government and thereafter seized by the Nigerian Army and Killed within few hours of the so called- State Amnesty

The story sound like a setup or plot from someone or group of people who want to take their pound of flesh from the said "Gana"

This man has been wanted for over 5 years, even with 10 Million naira bounty on his head and yet could not be captured - just came out to surrender and was extra judicially killed. The same way Boko Haram founder was killed- though Gana in this case surrendered himself to someone he believe can protect him - which eventually was unable to stop his death, unlike the case of Book Haram founder who was captured, Gana surrendered himself.

There are contrary opinions, however, these are my Opinions, based on timeline and the currently pulse of the Nation.

1. Army could have acted on intelligence which we as Citizens aren't privy of, in which case they perpetrated the extra judicial killing to protect the Nation.

Otherwise,
2. Army misfired by extra judicially killing someone in the Convoy of the Democratically Elected Governor of the state without any Court proclaiming him guilty of any offence.

3. This current action will seal all other Militias off from surrendering haven't seen what befell Gana in the hands of the Army after the so called Amnesty.

4. Gana is being tagged a Hero of the Tiv from some quarters because Army allowed it to be so - as Army is tagged the Fulani Army because Gana was speculated to be projecting Tivs from Fulani Occupation. The Army caused this by not allowing Gana to live and stand trial in a competent Court- thereby giving Room for Pro Fulani speculations of Nigerians against the Army

5. This speculation above is even made firm by the relationship between Ortom (The governor) and Federal Government. As it stands, its like FG is fighting the friend (Gana) of its enemy/ antagonist (Ortom). Whichever way both FG and Benue Government lost a pound of trust from the whole Nation by killing an unarmed Militia leader, even while he's as good as in custody. It only shows the Army's ineptitude/ weakness meaning they wouldn't have been able yo capture Gana if not for the "shakamanje amnesty" that disarmed him.


6. The News from Army stated that he was killed in a gun battle. This sounds incomprehensible how someone that was disarmed/ surrendered due to Amnesty will still have his guns to engage the Army in a gun battle right there inside the Governors Convoy. The story had it that they (Gana including his followers) have surrendered their Guns.

7. Lastly, have we ever heard of any Boko Haram fighter given amnesty killed thereafter? No, they rather get clothed, fed and given money to start a new life. The argument here will be, can state Government give amnesty? why can't FG work with such state in such situation to check if the amnesty is worth it or genuine?

This statement above makes the Army look sectarian, killing the people with Amnesty in the South/ Central states and pampering the killers given amnesty up North.

All these are opinions that the Army goofed big time except otherwise stated from intelligence gattering aspect.

All positive criticism are stated to protect Nigerian from a similar Al-barnarwi mistake of the past.


You can add your genuine opinion

Empiree:
`which means Jesus(p) has nothing to do with christians and christianity. He was sent to a set of people, the Jews. Interestingly you admitted Old Laws are still valid till today. You admitted Jews did not fulfil the Laws and they have shamelessly abandoned the Laws. Yet you claimed they are "chosen people". How are they "chosen people" from God if they don't abide by His Laws. How do you resolve this obvious contradictions of yours?


Who is talking in Romans 8:1?. It is only God that the Right to say this about Jesus but Romans was written by Paul. Paul did not have authority to say this. His words are invalid. Paul himself admitted to have lied in the same book of Romans.


"If the truth of God has been spread by my lie, then why am I judged a sinner." Romans 3:7


So Paul admitted he lied to propagate his religion (christianity). Why do you think sensible human beings should believe him?




Show us in the Quran where Quran copied Bible?. [/b]Show us death sentence in the Quran apart from murder?. The only death sentence in the Quran is in the case of murder which is universal law.[b] Show us in the Quran where it says to kill someone for insulting their parents?. Show us in the Quran where it says to kill whoever blasphemes God?. Show us in the Quran it says to kill cheaters?. Show us int he Quran where it says to kill adulterers?. All these are mentioned in your Bible yet you said Quran copied from Bible. If you don't show us these evidences then you're a liar like Paul, the founder and rector of christianity. Does Quran looks like it was authored by people?. Check this out



And this Quran is not such as could be forged by those besides Allah,... Q10:37


Does this sounds like Paul, Mathews, Mark, Luke and John?

So you now mean killing because of blasphemy doesn't exist in the Quran? Then why do you support the killing of the Kano musician if Quran doesn't approve that?

Sharia is only meant for oppression of the poor inghe North.

Ganduje was caught collecting dollars on camera, Sharia should have made him lose his arms albeit. All those drug abusers in the North that drinks codeine like water are still roaming freely on the street while you destroy alcohols that's legally produced in Nigeria. Yet you collect vat from same company to develop your state! Is that not hypocrisy? 0

Empiree:
And how does this helps the case of kano guy?. You need to stop your emotional outburst and face the reality. State can make laws. This is not federal but kano state.

I have given example of Florida's "Stand Your Ground Law" which is tantamount to jungle justice. Is that not in conflict with US constitution?. In this kind of law if you argue with CCW and you push or touch him and he feels threatened, he has the right to kill you. This is what the law means. I am trying to educate you now but you are dickhead.

I think you will also approve of this stand your ground law if its in force in both Kaduna and Benue? So at least land owners can kill those heardsmen trying to steal their land.

You always quote evils when it suits you. Hell Rufai quoted Jesus impregnating someone and even mentioned Judas in the quote, did heaven fall? Did you ever made comment that he is blasphemous against someone in the Trinity of God. But here you are killing someone for blasphemy against the slave of aLLAH.

I can bet it. Over 50% of Muslims worldwide are still Muslims only because of the fear of apostasy. Islam would have been deserted long time ago. God doesn't need to force people before catching them. He created us and gave us free will to chose between good and evil. I chose good. For you, what did you choose? To be throwing bombs or cutting peoples hands? Its left for you to answer? I leave you in peace!!!

I don't want to talk about religion in this thread but you can have these verses.

Leviticus 24:16

"anyone who blasphemes the name of the Lord is to be put to death. The entire assembly must stone them. Whether foreigner or native-born, when they blaspheme the Name they are to be put to death





Luke 12:10

And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but the one who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.



Matthew 12:31-32


Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.



Mark 3:29

But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”—

Your analysis are wrong. Leviticus (your first quote is in the old testament- Jewish law)

All your other quotes talks about holy Spirit/ God. My question is - Is mOHAMMED now same as God Allah or Hopy Spirit? Is Mohammed a God or slave/ servant as all Muslims are? God says he will not forgive sin against holy spirit, but did he put the judgement in the hand of man? No!! Did the bible in those new testament quote tell you to kill for God / Holy spirit? With your quotes, are you now telling me you now believe in the bible?


Same Jewish law that Israel is applying and maiming your terrorist brothers in Palestine - but you complained about Israel and here you are quoting the Old testament Jewish law. I shake my head for your double standard.

If Christians , pagans, atheists, Buddhist and all other religions take laws into their hands as Islamist do, this World would be in flames. Remembere there are more Christians in the World even without counting other religions, but only islamists fight all other religions blindly because one servant/ slave said so- this is no insult cos all Muslims are servants/ slaves- fact Muslims can't deny.

Jesus is the way the truth and life. For a good kive here and therrafter, Accept him today.

NB: No wonder we still have evil people in our midst. . If someone can support this current APC government, there is nothing he cannot support.

Imagine your statement. They should shoot IPob at sight while giving amnesty to Boko haram that has killed over 10,000 and displaced More than than 4 million. You at sick. Note! I'm not Igbo. But I support justice.

Same poverty/greed that had made you fall victim to your scamming Pastorprenours.... continue las las your eye go clear

How is tithe payment your problem? Did anyone force you to pay? Leave Christian with its rules and also stick to your Islamic terrorist.

Christianity means development. Go to RCCG Redemption camp on lagos ibadan express and see world class development COMPARED to Muslim NASFAT on same road that remains in the bush for over 2 decades.

This is the work of tithes and we Christians are not complaining. We use out money for something good rather than what you that used your money to throw BOMBS around the World

See Mallams commenting rudely here about Christianity and pastors without issue. Try talk about Islam NOW and let they will be shouting blasphemy everywhere. Hell Rufian posted on twiter about Jesus impregnating Maria without these religion of PISS calling him to order.

Keep quiet I can count 5 people in Delta State easily that have as many kids, i.e. Late Chief Michael Ibru., Late Chief Iyaddi Koloko, Late Chief Alfred Rewane

Yes. You can count 5 in south south, but we can count 1000 in the north. The problem of you nothrrners is simple understanding. No one is saying no such exists elsewhere in Nigeria, all we are saying is such vices dragging us back as a nation is MORE in the north.

Everywhere is poor is 9ja but north is worse. Healthcare is bad in 9ja but North own is horrible. Illiteracy rate is high in 9ja, but north own is unspeakable. Religious tolerance in Nigeria is nothing to right home about, but north is the climax. Insecurity in Nigeria is in the next level as APC puts it, but insecurity in the North is greater than the next level. Should I continue?

Alex ibru and co can have several children, but what's the rate of such breeding children like rats in the south compared to the North. This same Child breeding is the BIGGEST SOURCE OF ALL THOSE NORTHERN VICES I MENTIONED ABOVE.

Coro will surely still go to the right target. Coro know what it's doing na. All those eating our yams will keep hosting Coro in their Homes one after the other. Amen

Coro!!! Please don't miss target ooo. Target all our yams eater.p

Same sharia law that sends 13 year old to prison cannot be applied to captured boko Haram? Boko haram that has killed thousands can repent, but a mere 13 year old can't? FEAR THE NORTH. Its clear now that boko and northern elites have same agenda.

Arrewa:
What am about to dish out here is nothing but fact,I am a well known northerner on nairalander that don't sugar coat my words to please anybody.

I'm an active member of Arewa youths consultative forum!

I'm about to say the mind of an average northner towards the Yoruba people.

The truth is that we trust the Igbos more than the Yorubas.

If an igbo man hates you... He makes it clear to you that he hates you and you'll know how to relate with him.

A Yoruba man at the other hand will pretend to love you but will be stabbing you from behind.

I have even observed that even here on Nairaland.

But as for 2023 election...Tinubu or Osibanjo will preside over this country

We could have support igbo presidency if like the Igbos played their politics right and face their real enemies (their politicians) and leave the north out of their choronic hatred.

We have no intention of retaining power beyond 2023.

We will surely handover to the south... And that must be the south west.

Forget about this Giadom buhaha... We call it shadow politcs, South west and north are still on track... Soon you'll see Buhari and tinubu laughing and chilling.

Yorubas... Stop allowing ipob members to be playing with your emotions... Am so dissapointed that despite all your education you're all falling for this propaganda.

This should not be first time we've been voting Yorubas to preside over the affair of this country.

The only problem we have here is that Buhari is killing Apc with his style of leadership,especially when it comes to security.

If things continue like this... The north will no longer be loyal to the APC because of its failure to carry out the duty it was voted for.

An average northner is straight forward and honest.

We don't trust the yorubas... We know the Yorubas and know about all their media war against the north...

But politically we trust them cos no better option from the south that worth our vote more than the Yorubas.

We will vote for a Yoruba candidate come 2023 and will abandon our own brother in PDP only if Buhari will do the right thing by restoring back APC lossing glory in north.

Our people are loyal to APC and they see APC as the only Party that is ready to emancipate Nigeria from Corruption.

MODIFIED: can't believe that Igbos here are calling me a Yoruba man cos I supported yoruba presidency in my article

You are free to believe in anything that makes you feel better and happy

YYou are speaking from both sides of your mouth. Yoruba's are back stabbers, yet you want to give 2023 ticket to them. smh for those who believe your propaganda article.

Arrewa:
Tinubu, El-Rufai

Or

Osibanjo, zulum


Just give us Elrufai or zulum as vp...


I like Osibanjo but believe me... The reason why some people prefer Osibanjo over tinubu is because of religion.

Not that Osibanjo is better and more capacitated then tinubu... But they see yoruba Muslims as almost equal to northerners.

So they will always prefer Osibanjo ahead of tinubu...

Bigotry is evil!

They are both Yoruba, but you are not, so you won't understand. We Yoruba's value good names more than Gold. Tinubus name is soiled across Nigeria compared to Osinbajo, Osinbajo isn't abGod father either and hes more learned more than Tinubu. Yoruba values education, at least you know that. Tinubu and an average Yoruba Muslim isn't like the FANATICS UPNORTH, He's (Tinubu) is even married to a Christian. doesn't that sound absurd to an average Northerner?

For your information, every Yoruba have both Muslim and Christian as close family members, so your religious claims doesn't stand here.

I consider you even the religious bigot here.

Congratulations yo her. She look moderate unlike arewa extremists. A moderate northerner is always cool. Extremism is the problem.

Everyone knows the Fulani in Nigeria to be settlers from other west African states like MALI. They don't have land anywhere in Nigeria, all they do is kill Nigerians whether Muslim or Christian, grab their land and rename such place. See the truth about southern Kaduna in the thread below;

exchanging words on intellectual discuss or history with an Habokkii is a big insult to a Yoruba man i mean its the worst downgrade.. your people could barely cram 600 pages of an Arabic book, and call yourself literate, while we are into science , inovation , creativity

8 out of 10 Northerner is extremely poor and cant afford proper education except tales almajiri are told from one place they beg to the other

Waoh! This is a heavy blow!!!. Yoruba's intellectual can't really be compared to an average aboki, but trust me, SOME OF THE SO CALLED ABOKI ARE BRILLIANT AND WELL LEARNED. We should stop these Aboki, Afonja, flat head generalismo

But, you will still call them infidel for not using Hijab if they are in Nigeria. check the pictures again it those pictures looks like the arewa soldiers of your dream

Arrewa:
Hypocrisy of Southerners!

When the excessive killings of zamfara was still on; you didn't call it jihad or genocide against the indigenous muslim communities. But since it has now turned to the Christain communities of kaduna State. You're now sugar-coating your pen to suite your narratives that portrays the southern kaduna killings as a planned genocide been sponsored by Muslim elites.

Factually, nobody is happy with the dialy killings that's happening with kaduna south citizens. But how do you expect me to support you when your long article paints me as the sponsor of the menace? Or are you intentionally calling it a genocide against Christainity to get the Muslims angry and use the bashing comments they'd rain on you to affirm your assertion?

When terrorists attack a Muslim dominant community; Most of the victims would surely be muslims. Like wise, if they attack a Christain dominant population; Majority of the victims would be Christains. The war is neither muslims against Christains nor Christains against Muslims. But a war between humans and cannibals.

I guess you're calling this a genocide of cleansing Christains due to the fact that a Muslim is ruling the the country. But did you call the 2010 to 2015 killings of Borno aboriginal Muslims a genocide to cleanse Islam? How about sokoto and katsina State menace? Is it a genocide against Christains also?

Insecurity has forsaken our country. But instead of us to raise our collective voices to condemn it and call the attention of the the government to curtail it; we are busy throwing shades at each other and playing the usual blame game. Infact, some Imbeciles are even happy about it since it'd be a means for them to further spread hate and cause havoc within the northern population.

Whether it's a genocide or not. We strongly condemn it and call the attention of the relevant authorities to unveil a fight against it.

My thoughts and prayers are with southern kaduna, kastina and zamfara citizens. I pray this come to an end. I pray that: smile shines out your rues sooner. I pray your land regains it peace and freedom.

If Muslim kill Muslims and we talk, same you will say its none or our business, now that Christians are being killed, you still get worried by our complaints.

The bottom line is, THE KILLERS ARE MUSLIMS regardless of of who they kill.

Amotolongbo:
No time changed.

Only that Christianity has shattered into small pieces like pebbles and no much enough unity to fight. Unlike Islam.

Islam has two major branches, Sunni and Shia. The Sunni is by far the largest and always easy in unity to fight against Shia or any other religious group.

Unlike Christianity which you can’t really say one has a larger body than the other, though Catholicm has been estimated to have more numerical advantage. Christianity isn’t anymore a United body like it used to be during the crusaders.

A microcosm of that is in some places in the south east where Catholics and Anglicans dominate. You can imagine the rivalry between them.

in your words, Christians are shattered into piece! Even with the pieces you mentioned, have you see Christians (pieces) throwing bomb to each other as Shia and Sunni do?

You need your head checked to believe Christians with Million denominations without any brutal fighting is MORE divide than Only 2 Shia and Sunni that doesn't see eye to eye.

Elzazky is still in prison now because he's Shia and our main leaders are Sunni, Go to Saudi and see treatment of Shire. Go to Iran too and see the great fight with minority Sunni.

It beats my imagination that your comment is that Christians are not throwing Bombs because they are not united, but Muslims are throwing because they have only 2 piece and united that's

What I got from your statement;

1. You agreed that terrorists are Muslims (because you said Christians are not united that's what they are not fighting but Sunnis are united to fight. You clearly agreed the terrorists are Sunnis. This is what the whole Muslim world always deny.

2. You bastardized the word "unity" Can't your Muslims be united in making the World better, through technology, but rather make it scary. Christianity came to Nigeria through education etc. come to the South west and see that 50% of so called Secondary Schools are ST- Anne's, Nicholas, Phillips, john. etc but how many such huge benefit did Islam bring along its route up north?

3. You agreed some medieval Christian did something. So, are Muslims retaliating now or they want to go back to the medieval age? Ok. going back to the medieval, you need to walk on foot 5,000 miles from southern Africa to Saudi! That's medieval! Can you do that now? But to fight and destroy the World, you are shouting medieval age!!!! To defend Islam is a herculean task

Nasiruddeen:
Anywhere there is Christianity practice, freedom is shredded, war and bloodshed is entrenched. These are facts. Just take a look at America to Iraq etc.

Wherever Christianity finds itself as minority, peace is destroyed, agitation is embraced. They become relentless, restless and violent. These are facts. Just look at what Zamani Lakwat initiated in Southern Kaduna up to date..

Where Christianity is majority, hope is caged, a deadly oppression of minorities is executed. These are facts such as Plateau and Taraba States.

No wander they claimed that Jesus said in English Standard Version of the Bible in Mathew 10:34 that:

“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword".

Constantly at war with itself, there is no doubt that it is the most consequential religion man has ever known. Just as what Christian crusaders did to Andalusians in Span etc

Everyone Worldwide know Islam for what it is. A religion of force where you can enter but cannot go back or be killed (Apostacy) Yet my Sheik says there is no compulsion in Religion.

We all know the Fulani's (Muslim) are the one causing issues in both Kaduna and Taraba you mentioned above, with culpable support from one short man who is blood thirsty. (There are over 1 million short people possibly causing the trouble, but you can guess who among them it is)

All your claims above still fails to mention the name of the Christian Terrorist groups tormenting Nigeria and the World at large, but if you ask a 10 year Old, he will mention 10 Islamic terrorist group without blinking an eye. Even the famous Muslim station Aljazeera couldn't hide the name "Islamic group" anymore.

Its an open secret that wherever Islamic extremism goes, peace depart. I spent over 7 years in both Malaysia and Singapore and can categorically tell you the Islam they practiced is 100% different from that of Saudi, Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen etc. You hardly see all these black black masquerade like buqa you see in Nigerians Nigeria in Malay. All you see is pink, blue, lilac and very colourful headscarf/Hijab, you see Malaysian Chinese with bum shots on the street( impossible in Iraq etc)

Back to Lebanon:
Lebanon is a promounced Country in the World who shares powers legitimately (as in constitution) with sunni and shia group, despite having Christian majority among religious groups. 3 biggest position is been shared as Christian- Muslim- Muslim- since shia is seen as a different group from Sunni . This means there is more power even in the Hands of the Islamist than the major Christian faith.

Back to Nigeria; Because you raised the issue of Kaduna etc. Is there a Muslim deputy in Hell Rufai government- despite Christian constituting over 30% of the state.

Lebanon Current constitution mandates that. President must be Christian, Prime minister - Sunni Muslim and head of Parliament - shia Muslim. There are over 18 sects in Lebanon and all of them must have their representation. Can you say same for Nigeria where First to 15th highest position only has 2 Yoruba and 1 Igbo. This means the Lebanon in this question is even better organised than Nigeria. Despite our quota and federal character system, we have unbalanced distribution of non elective posts among major ethnic groups and religion.

They have deceived us far too long by using the name Hausa-Fulani. Hausa is different from Fulani, but merging the 2 names makes them have the upper hand in terms of Population. This is a story for another day.

I believe I could be clouded by my Christian faith. But, ask an Hindu, pagan, traditionalist or any non muslim or non Christian to tell you which of the 2 Religion is peaceful and which is violent. From China, to India to Myammar, to UK. Muslims are always causing trouble. Imagine MUMURIC Akintola fighting WAEC while other more Islamic nation that constitute WAEC -like Senegal and Mali who are even more Islamic than Nigeria dont have any complaints whatsoever.


There are 1-2-3 Muslims in Parliament of Christian Countries, even in Jewish state of Israel. But do we have a single Christian in the ruling class in Saudi, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Bahrain, UAE, Qatar etc? This clearly shows that Islam is "tolerant indeed "

Anyone trying to defend Islam as peaceful and tolerant must definitely use Yaqiya because its clear to the blind, loud to the deaf/ dumb what Islam preaches Worldwide.



its easier to defend devil himself, than defend Islam. Christianity has its own, but Islam is far from it.

He's right. standard of living in Lebanon is better than Nigeria. Aside their 2020 recession and money value loss, Lebanon beats Nigeria hands down

where are you located

While Nigeria government granted amnesty to Boko Haram members and senate proposed a ministry to oversee Boko Haram affairs, Chad government has executed BOKO HARAM members who were found guilty of terrorism act.


According to report, ten members of the Islamist militant group Boko Haram were executed by firing squad in Chad. It comes a day after they were found guilty of terror charges at a trial in the capital N'Djamena.

These were groups of terrorist that the Nigeria government granted amnesty and our treasury looting and intellectually barren legislators proposed to protect, rather thana sentencing to serve jail terms or death.

Sponsoring a bill to create ministry of Boko Haram is the most foolish thing any country can ever think of because this in actual sence, will give birth to another aggressive group which will endangered the life of innocent citizens.

According to report from Chad, ten members of the Islamist militant group Boko Haram have been executed by firing squad in Chad.

It comes a day after they were found guilty of terror charges at a trial in the capital N'Djamena.

Security sources said they were shot at a firing range north of the capital.

All 10 were convicted over their roles in twin attacks on the capital in June, which killed at least 38. A month after the attack, Chad reintroduced the death penalty for acts of terror.

"They were shot this morning at the Massaguet firing range," a source told Reuters news agency, referring to a city about 60km (40 miles) north-east of N'Djamena.

Among those to die was Mahamat Mustapha, aka Bana Fanaye, who had been described as the "mastermind" of June's attacks.

A school and a police building in the capital were targeted by suicide bombers on motorcycles, leaving more than 100 people injured in addition to the dead.

Those attacks were followed by a blast at a market in the capital in July, which killed 15 people.

The attacks were the first by the Nigerian-based group in Chad, which hosts the headquarters of a regional force set up to fight the militants.

The 10 were found guilty of charges including criminal conspiracy, killings, wilful destruction with explosives, fraud, illegal possessions of arms and ammunition, and using psychotropic substances, according to chief prosecutor Bruno Mahouli Louapambe, quoted in AFP news agency.

Chad has been instrumental in helping Nigeria retake most of the areas Boko Haram had seized.

The jihadists, who want to create their own Islamic caliphate in Nigeria, have killed thousands and forced millions to flee their homes in the country's north-east Nigeria since 2009.
vanned
The militant group had previously threatened to attack Chad, after it sent troops to help Nigeria recapture territory from them, mostly in Borno state.

Following the bombings, Chad banned people from wearing the full-face veil. Remember, Algeria also banned full face Islamic buqa because it is been used for covering identity of terrorist and bombers. However, Nigeria that is nowhere close to Islam as both Chad and Algeria can never do same to reduce terrorism.

But its attempts to crack down on terrorism have attracted criticism from opposition and civil liberties groups who fear it could be used to curb civil rights.

What's your Opinion about Terrorism in Nigeria? Do they really have people protecting them in Government? "Your guess is as good as mine"
