Finaly American Marines have Located The Kidnapped Female Students.
Special Forces of the United States Marines have sighted the over 200 female students abducted by Boko Haram terrorists from their school in Chibok, Borno State.
Members of the United States Marines who are already in Maiduguri in fulfilment of the promise of President Barack Obama to assist Nigeria to search and rescue the girls, were said to have located the girls inside the dreaded Sambisa forest, using highly sophisticated Satellite equipment which combed the forest.
Also, one of the leaders of the terrorist group who participated in the abduction of the girls, their chief spy, has been arrested by the US Marines, through the use of an advanced interceptor equipment which was used to track the Boko Haram spy while he was exchanging information with Shekau and others inside Sambisa Forest…
The man was said to be feeding Boko Haram commander, Shekau and others with security information about the movements of American and Nigerian soldiers in Maiduguri, to sabotage the rescue operation.
American Marines used their sophisticated tracker to traced his location in Maiduguri where he was arrested and he has been handed over to Nigerian security authority.
Hopefully,
#BringBackOurGirls shall become a reality

Sad: The Bridge Linking Nigeria To Cameroon has been bombed by Boko Haram.
Things are getting worst every day, and it looks as if boko haram has
power more than The Nigerians soldiers. The news reaching us now said
that Boko haram has bomb and destroy a bridge linking Nigeria to
Cameroon in Borno State today. This has caused confusion and damages .
The bombing occurred on the outskirts of Gamboru Ngala, Boko Haram
attack that claimed the lives of over 300 village residents.
Atleast 30 people were killed during the late Thursday bombing
incident. The bridge links immigration check points of both Cameroon
and Nigeria.
And now my question is Where were all the security officers when this
bombing took place?
The bombing event took place on the same day of a mass burial in the
town of Gamboru Ngala where Boko Haram militants raid on the village
on Monday claimed the lives of over 300 residents, nearly ten per cent
of the population.
Sources say 315 people of the 336 who died in the Monday attack were
buried in a solemn ceremony led by civic and religious leaders.
Since the Monday attacks many of the local Gamboru Ngala youth have
joined an anti-Islamist vigilante force in the village. And it appears
this is why Shekau released a new warning, threatening to kill
civilian JTF.

FULL TEXT OF BOKO HARAM LEADER ABUBAKAR SHEKAU'S MESSAGE
Islam Is Nothing But Killings, Killings and
Killings! Kill And Slaughter, But Don't Eat Them". – Shiek
Shekau, Boko Haram Leader.
**My brethren, take up knives and start
slaughtering people. Just pick up your knife and break into
homes and kill.
**Whoever follows Jews and the west is my
enemy. I'll kill all of them and spare those that follow
Allah
and the Prophet.
**Civilian-JTF:I swear by Allah, I will slaughter you. I
personally put my knife on your necks and slit your
throats.
Yes! I'll slaughter you!
**University is forbidden, you should vacate
university! I hate university. You should quit
university, I hate it. "Of course there is no doubt about it;
we carried out the
attacks in Maiduguri and we were responsible for the other
attacks being carried out all over. But the Giwa Barracks
attack is something worth telling, because Allah has
helped
us to kill his enemies in Giwa Barracks.
We launched the Maiduguri attacks and killed infidels in
Giwa Barracks. But specifically, I will devote half of my
speech
to the issue of Civilian JTF. Your name is not
Civilian JTF but Civilian Trouble. My advice to
you so-called Civilian-JTF is to flee, take up arms, get
conscripted into the army or police, because I am telling
you
is that I have started a war against you. The war against
you
has just begun.
In this world, there are two kinds of people;
there are those who are with us or those who are against
us,
and the latter group are those I'll kill once I spot them.
From
now on, my focus of attack is going to be the Civilian-JTF.
Let the Civilian-JTF know that this is me, Shekau talking.
You will now really understand the person called Shekau.
You don't know my madness, right? It is now that you will
see the true face of my madness. I swear by Allah's holy
name that I will slaughter you. I will not be happy if I don't
personally put my knife on your necks and slit your
throats.
Yes! I'll slaughter you! I'll slaughter you! And I'll
slaughter
you
again and again.
I call on all my followers and brethren wherever you are,
to
rise and take up arms and start killing the vagabond. Kill
them, kill them and kill them. Now our religion and our
way
of worship is nothing but killings, killings and killings! Kill
and slaughter but don't eat them. You should spare the
old,
women, the lunatic, and the repentant.
You only succeeded in arresting innocent
civilians in the city, placing tyres on their necks and
setting
them alight. By Allah, I will kill you. Killing is my job.
Let's
kill them all, we'd rather leave this world. Let the whole
world perish! May Allah curse you!
Oh! Allah, they are your servants but are they are
assisting
(Goodluck) Jonathan, they are your servants who pray but
are humouring the Koran, they are your servants but are
assisting Clinton and Obama. Allah gave us the courage
to break into Giwa Barracks
(where) we killed and we burnt. We rescued over 2,000 of
our brethren, and most of them Commanders!…Oneof them
even took up a gun and started fighting there. They all got
away.
Glory be to Allah. The world has changed! Work has
started.
And for your information, western education is forbidden.
University is forbidden, you should vacate university! You
should leave university, I hate university. You should quit
university, I hate it, bastard.
Western education is totally forbidden. Girls, you should
return to your homes. In Islam, it is allowed to take infidel
women as slaves and in due course we will start taking
women away and sell in the market.
We carried out the Maiduguri attack. And those you killed
included freed detainees who were not our members but
ordinary people who on being freed headed to town,
thinking they were safe.
They were dressed in shorts and when you
encountered them you mistook them for us and killed
them.
This was what really happened. We rescued all of our
brethren, we gave them clothing, shelter, vehicles, food
and
all they needed….Our brethren are in good state, we thank
God.
"Nigerians, let me let you know that you are in serious
disaster. Don't think we are northerners, because you are
misunderstanding the whole thing.
Let me make it crystal clear to you save you
from unnecessary distorted newspapers and the radio
analysis on issues you don't understand. We are not
fighting the North, we are fighting the world. And you will
see us fighting the world. This is our job.
I promise that we will kill all your (Muslim)
clerics. Just like I killed Albani and it was splashed all
over
the newspapers. I'll kill them all. Who was Albani, he was
nothing. I'll kill all of them. I'll spare none but who follow
Allah and the Prophet. Whoever follows Jews and the west
is my enemy.
My brethren wherever you are, in Abuja, Lagos, or the
south-
south, wherever you are, commence attacks. Even as an
individual, take up your swords and slaughter anyone you
come across in his sleep.
My brethren, take up knives and start slaughtering people.
Just pick up your knife and break into homes and kill. I
heard some people asking Jonathan to relocate to the
northeast to take charge of the fight against us, but let me
tell you, Jonathan is too small, let even Obama, the
President of America relocate to Nigeria and take charge,
we
will not be deterred
Killings! Kill And Slaughter, But Don't Eat Them". – Shiek
Shekau, Boko Haram Leader.
**My brethren, take up knives and start
slaughtering people. Just pick up your knife and break into
homes and kill.
**Whoever follows Jews and the west is my
enemy. I'll kill all of them and spare those that follow
Allah
and the Prophet.
**Civilian-JTF:I swear by Allah, I will slaughter you. I
personally put my knife on your necks and slit your
throats.
Yes! I'll slaughter you!
**University is forbidden, you should vacate
university! I hate university. You should quit
university, I hate it. "Of course there is no doubt about it;
we carried out the
attacks in Maiduguri and we were responsible for the other
attacks being carried out all over. But the Giwa Barracks
attack is something worth telling, because Allah has
helped
us to kill his enemies in Giwa Barracks.
We launched the Maiduguri attacks and killed infidels in
Giwa Barracks. But specifically, I will devote half of my
speech
to the issue of Civilian JTF. Your name is not
Civilian JTF but Civilian Trouble. My advice to
you so-called Civilian-JTF is to flee, take up arms, get
conscripted into the army or police, because I am telling
you
is that I have started a war against you. The war against
you
has just begun.
In this world, there are two kinds of people;
there are those who are with us or those who are against
us,
and the latter group are those I'll kill once I spot them.
From
now on, my focus of attack is going to be the Civilian-JTF.
Let the Civilian-JTF know that this is me, Shekau talking.
You will now really understand the person called Shekau.
You don't know my madness, right? It is now that you will
see the true face of my madness. I swear by Allah's holy
name that I will slaughter you. I will not be happy if I don't
personally put my knife on your necks and slit your
throats.
Yes! I'll slaughter you! I'll slaughter you! And I'll
slaughter
you
again and again.
I call on all my followers and brethren wherever you are,
to
rise and take up arms and start killing the vagabond. Kill
them, kill them and kill them. Now our religion and our
way
of worship is nothing but killings, killings and killings! Kill
and slaughter but don't eat them. You should spare the
old,
women, the lunatic, and the repentant.
You only succeeded in arresting innocent
civilians in the city, placing tyres on their necks and
setting
them alight. By Allah, I will kill you. Killing is my job.
Let's
kill them all, we'd rather leave this world. Let the whole
world perish! May Allah curse you!
Oh! Allah, they are your servants but are they are
assisting
(Goodluck) Jonathan, they are your servants who pray but
are humouring the Koran, they are your servants but are
assisting Clinton and Obama. Allah gave us the courage
to break into Giwa Barracks
(where) we killed and we burnt. We rescued over 2,000 of
our brethren, and most of them Commanders!…Oneof them
even took up a gun and started fighting there. They all got
away.
Glory be to Allah. The world has changed! Work has
started.
And for your information, western education is forbidden.
University is forbidden, you should vacate university! You
should leave university, I hate university. You should quit
university, I hate it, bastard.
Western education is totally forbidden. Girls, you should
return to your homes. In Islam, it is allowed to take infidel
women as slaves and in due course we will start taking
women away and sell in the market.
We carried out the Maiduguri attack. And those you killed
included freed detainees who were not our members but
ordinary people who on being freed headed to town,
thinking they were safe.
They were dressed in shorts and when you
encountered them you mistook them for us and killed
them.
This was what really happened. We rescued all of our
brethren, we gave them clothing, shelter, vehicles, food
and
all they needed….Our brethren are in good state, we thank
God.
"Nigerians, let me let you know that you are in serious
disaster. Don't think we are northerners, because you are

Boko Haram Threatens If Search Is Not Stopped they will kill Abdubted girls
The islamic militant Boko Haram have threatened to kill the school
girls they abducted in the early hours of tuesday 15th April, if the
search for them continues. This is after some Borno women under the
auspices of BAOBAB Women's Right said they are planning to storm the
Sambisa forest where the abducted girls are believed to be held.
The women said since efforts by the military to rescue the girls
haven't worked so far, it was time for them to take matters into their
hands as concerned mothers.
The Spokesperson for the group, Professor Hauwa Biu, told newsmen:-
"We are ready to go into the forest and search for the girls. In fact,
we are prepared to risk our lives and get up to Boko Haram camp and
appeal to them to release the children to us so that they can re unite
with their parents. There is nothing extraordinary in our quest to
enter the dangerous forest. We learnt that some men in Chibok had
earlier embarked on such mission, which later turned out to be
fruitless. We felt that as mothers, we are in a better position to
have the sympathy and concern over the fate of the missing girls. Our
target is not to fight the abductors, but we want to beg them to
release the girls in the name of the God that we all worship.

LWKMD: As Terry G And Hotel Manager fights as he refused to pay Bills
Controversial singer and producer, Gabriel Amanyi, a.k.a Terry G, has
again been involved in a messy fight at a hangout in his Iju
neighborhood.
The fight, which later resulted in a free-for-all, took place at the
Treasures Exclusive Garden, off Bola Tinubu Road, Iju, Lagos at about
6p.m. Wednesday.
A source told P.M.NEWS that Terry G and his boys stormed the hotel to
relax but things later turned awry between some staff of the hangout
and the music star with his crew.
According to the source, when Terry G arrived the club, one of his
boys forcefully jumped into the swimming pool without paying.
One of the hangout's attendants asked the boy to come out of the pool
but he refused. When he was dragged out, his colleagues reportedly
reacted with violence. The ensuing free for all, the source said, saw
Terry G raining blows on the hotel manager.
"When Terry G and his crew arrived the hotel around 6p.m., one of his
boys just jumped into the pool without paying. The security guard
called him to come out but he refused. Even the owner of the hotel,
Mr. George Obot, shouted at him but he refused. Terry G further messed
up the whole issue when he started abusing Mr. Obot, telling the man
what did he think he has and all sort of things," the source narrated.
He continued: "His boys started beating the security guards, while
Terry G himself slapped the hotel manager who was trying to calm him
down."
Mr. Obot, the owner of Treasures Exclusive Garden, in a phone chat
with our correspondent, confirmed the incident. He said that he was
disappointed in Terry G who came and messed up his place.
Obot said he wouldn't want to comment further since he was still
assessing the matter and would get back to P.M.NEWS.
A patron of Treasures, who claimed he witnessed the incident, however
had a slightly different story to tell.
The patron, who did not want his name mentioned for fear of reprisal
from the relaxation centre's management, said when Terry G and two
others arrived the club, they hurriedly undressed and were about to
jump into the swimming pool when the club manager told them that they
couldn't.
The ensuing noise from the altercation between the manager and Terry
G's crew brought the proprietor to the scene. The proprietor, too,
insisted that it was inappropriate for the singer to dive into the
pool. When Terry G stuck to his guns, the proprietor, the source
said, threw a punch at him. Then bedlam ensued
When P.M.NEWS contacted Terry G, it was his manager who picked the
call. While confirming the brawl between his principal's crew and some
staff of the hotel, he however denied the claim that Terry G
physically assaulted anyone there.
"It is not true. Terry G witnessed the whole scenario but never
engaged anyone in a fight. When the whole issue happened and it was
getting messy, he just walked away from the place since he was aware
of his celebrity status," Terry G's manager said.
Felix Alonge, the club supervisor, said yesterday was not the first
time Terry G would come to the hangout and rupture its peace.
"Anytime Terry G comes to this place, he will surely cause trouble,"
Alonge said.
WhenP.M.NEWSvisited the resort this morning, Mr. Obot was not there.
He was said to have gone to the Iju Ishaga 'Red House' Police Station.
Though the club manager declined to speak on developments on the
matter, a staff said Terry G's mother had been invited to the police
station, presumably to vouch for her son's civility should he decide
to visit the club in future.
Terry G has earned notoriety over his uncivil behaviour. Sometime ago,
he was reportedly engaged in a public brawl with fellow musician, Side
One, in Benin City
again been involved in a messy fight at a hangout in his Iju
neighborhood.

Shocking: Chris Brown's Trial drawn Back Again. (To Remain In Jail Until June)
Chris Brown was said to leave in ruins after getting two pieces of
very bad news on April 23. First.. a judge adjoined his Washington,
D.C. assault trial which had been scheduled to begin on April 21 and
then rescheduled to start on April 23 back to June.
Then the judge dealt Chris another harsh blow by saying no that he
must remain in the custody, says no freedom for him this time.
Chris just can't catch a break these days.
A source reported that jail had already ''broken'' the troubled
24-year-old R&B star, so we can't say what these unexpected next
couple of months will do to him.

killed by gunmen, we are losing property on a daily basis. What kind
of a country is this? Luka said.

journalist yesterday in his office in Taraba State said he has ordered
50 more policemen to the troubled zone to help the residents.

number of policemen on the ground, we hope the situation would
improve' he said

BREAKING NEWS: How Boko Haram Recruits Youths With $3000(revealed)
Youths of Nigerians living at the border town of Nigeria and Niger
Republic, Diffa, have confessed to be recruits by the Islamist
militant group, Boko Haram.
1 of the gang member in Niger told the British Broadcasting
Corporation (BBC) that the Islamist militants from Nigeria normally
come to the border, to look for recruits.
The gang members, said they were paid $3,085 (about N500,000) to join
the group and since they were jobless, they were ready to take the
cash, but with no interest in protecting Sharia law.
However, they said they were ready to strike if they were told to do
so, as they blamed their decision to join the militant group on their
joblessness.
They have paid Nigerian naira ($3,085, £1,835) to those of us who
followed them over to Nigeria, one of the young men said.
When they come, we inform them about what is going on, what the
security forces are up to.
We have no jobs; some of us are still at high school, but we need
money. Violence has become a form of work for us.
These confessions were revealed in a documentary published by the BBC,
on Tuesday, after Thomas Fessy, a BBC reporter visited Diffa region in
Niger Republic.
BBC made contacts with this local gang, who claimed they collaborated
with Boko Haram and agreed.
According to BBC documentary, five of these young Nigerians said they
had already joined the militant Boko Haram sect, while two other
members were killed in operations.
In total they were about 12 gang members in a small, dark room, built
with local mud-bricks.
When the reporter asked them: If you are asked to launch an attack
here, will you be ready to do that?
Their response:: Yes, we are ready. We have no job, so, we are ready.
That is what we are here for.
When the BBC reporter asked if they agreed with Boko Haram's reason
for fighting, they answered in unison: No. We are only doing it for
the money.
Arriving one by one to meet the BBC crew earlier on a street corner in
Diffa, they all wore skinny jeans, bright coloured T-shirts and shiny
chains, like those seen around the necks of American rappers on music
videos.
Their attitude and brand new clothes made them stand out when they
walked down the dusty streets of Diffa.
The fashion style is clearly inspired by Western consumerism rather
than Islamist militancy.
We break into houses for cash; sometimes we beat people for money, we
steal their animals so we can eat and then we gather up and take
Tramol (an opiate drug), smoke ganja indian hemp) and drink alcohol,
one of the gang members said.

Coach stephen Keshi has released a list of 38 players to be considered
for the Brazil 2014 World Cup campagn in June.
He submitted the list to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for
vetting ahead of the World Cup.
The NFF is expected to mandown the list to 30 players that will be
send to FIFA as the country's provisional World Cup squad by May 10.
Keshi met with the Technical Committee of the NFF in Abuja on Tuesday
afternoon, a meeting that lasted for about three hours.
Hopes that the provisional World Cup squad would be released
afterwards were dashed when Keshi emerged from the meeting without the
final list. He told the media that there will still be consultations
with NFF before the final announcement.
"I have about 37 to 38 players on my list from there I will select
about 30 players because that is what FIFA needs [as provisional list]
on May 10th, 2014," Keshi said.
He used the opportunity to deny that any list had been leaked to the media.
"I am worried about the list I have been reading on the pages of
newspapers. I did not make that list and I am not happy that you guys
are reporting this to mislead people," he said.
The waiting game therefore continues.

SEE 10 THINGS That Leads To David Moyes sack(CHECK OUT)
1.. September 22, Man City 4 Man Utd 1, Barclays Premier League
United were swept away in emphatic fashion as City ruthlessly exposed
the gulf in class between the two teams. The hosts led 2-0 at
half-time thanks to Yaya Toure and Sergio Aguero, before two more
inside five minutes of the restart all but sealed victory for Manuel
Pellegrini's men. A late consolation from Wayne Rooney did little to
comfort United.
2... September 26, Man Utd 1 West Brom 2, Barclays Premier League
A superb Morgan Amalfitano run and chip had United rattled before
Rooney's free-kick found the back of Boaz Myhill's net. Youngster
Saido Berahino struck after 67 minutes to give the Baggies their first
win at Old Trafford since 1978 – and ensure a worst start to a league
campaign in 24 years for United.
3... December 7, Man Utd 0 Newcastle 1, Barclays Premier League
United suffered their second home defeat in four days as Yohan Cabaye
secured victory for the visitors – their first at Old Trafford since
1972 – after Moyes' hold team had come back to haunt him with a 1-0
win, courtesy of Bryan Oviedo's late strike.
4... January 5, Man Utd 1 Swansea 2, FA Cup third round
This one appeared to be heading to a replay until a Wilfried Bony
header after 90 minutes gave Swansea their first ever win at Old
Trafford. It was United's second defeat in four days after Tottenham
had beaten them 2-1 in the Premier League. Fabio's red card for a
reckless challenge on Jose Canas capped another bad day for the hosts.
5... January 19, Chelsea 3 Man Utd 1, Barclays Premier League
A comprehensive defeat at Stamford Bridge all but ended United's
Premier League title hopes, leaving them 14 points off pacesetters
Arsenal. Captain Nemanja Vidic was sent off for a high lunge on Eden
Hazard.
6.... January 22, Man Utd 2 Sunderland 1 (aggregate 3-3, Sunderland
win 2-1 on penalties) Capital One Cup
United's season of woe hit new depths as they were knocked out by
relegation-haunted Sunderland. Jonny Evans scored to level the tie at
2-2 on aggregate to force extra-time, before David De Gea fumbled Phil
Bardsley's shot into his own net. Javier Hernandez struck for the home
side with 120 minutes on the clock – but Sunderland edged a terrible
penalty shoot-out, scoring two of the three spot-kicks converted.
7. March 16, Man Utd 0 Liverpool 3, Barclays Premier League
Liverpool completed the double over United for the fourth time in the
Premier League. Steven Gerrard scored two penalties and missed a
third, before Luis Suarez scored late on for a team who finished 28
points behind the champions in 2012-13.
8. March 25, Man Utd 0 Man City 3, Barclays Premier League
United were again completely outclassed by their local neighbours from
the moment Edin Dzeko put the visitors in front inside the first
minute. Moyes' side never truly threatened City, who registered
further goals from Dzeko and Toure. Defeat effectively ended United's
hopes of a late Champions League surge and left them in danger of
missing out on the top six altogether.
9. April 9, Bayern Munich 3 Man Utd 1 (Bayern win 4-2 on aggregate)
Champions League
United were comfortably second best throughout both legs of their
quarter-final against the European champions. After having to overturn
a 2-0 first-leg loss to Olympiacos in Greece in the previous round,
United took the lead at the Allianz Arena through Patrice Evra's
stunning strike.
But the lead lasted just 22 seconds as Mario Mandzukic levelled and
goals from Thomas Muller and Arjen Robben settled the tie.
10. April 20, Everton 2 Man Utd 0, Barclays Premier League
Moyes was booed on his return to Goodison Park and his players did
little to improve his mood, producing an abject display as goals from
Leighton Baines and Kevin Mirallas ended the visitors' hopes of
Champions League qualification.

The News reaching us now said That David Moyes Has Been Sacked As Man United Manager.
News reaching us frm Sky sports report said that David Moyes has been
sacked as Manchester United manager, according to unconfirmed reports.
The outgoing Premier League champions have refused to comment on the
widespread reports, with several national newspapers claiming his
departure is imminent.
Moyes has endured a difficult reign since taking charge of United last
summer, but the club were expected to stand by the Scot, despite a
lack of success in domestic and European competitions.
United's board appear set to cut short Moyes' six-year deal in the
wake of the latest 2-0 defeat at former club Everton, which left
United 13 points adrift of the Premier League top four.
Reaching the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League did briefly
ease the pressure on Moyes, but they bowed out with a 4-2 aggregate
defeat against Bayern Munich.
Sir Alex Ferguson had urged the club to give the next manager time
when he stepped down in May after a glittering spell at Old Trafford,
but owners, the Glazer family, seem to have lost patience.
Ferguson, who has watched many of United's games from the stands,
himself had a tough start to his 27-year spell in charge, but went on
to win two UEFA Champions League trophies, 13 Premier League titles
and five FA Cups.
United are expected to spend heavily in the summer and a successor
would be entrusted with the transfer fund, which is reported to be
around £150million.
Holland manager Louis van Gaal, who is leaving after the World Cup,
Borussia Dortmund boss Jurgen Klopp, and Paris St-Germain's Laurent
Blanc have been tipped as possible contenders to replace Moyes.
Sky Sports pundit Tony Cottee suggested that Moyes had lost the
backing of some members of his squad.
Speaking on Gillette Soccer Special, Cottee said: "The key question is
has he got the support of the players?
"Looking at the performances, I would say no at the moment. Players
are very powerful these days."
Sky Bet have slashed the odds on Moyes' departure to 1-10, naming Van
Gaal as 4-1 favourite to succeed him, with Klopp at 5-1 and veteran
winger Ryan Giggs at 6-1.
Does David Moyes deserve more time at Man Utd?

What Nigeria will do if the want to stop Boko Haram. (says Bola Tinubu)
One of the former governor of Lagos State, also the curent leader of
all progresive congress (APC)Bola Tinubu, has revealed about
Nigeria's current political and security challenge can be a thing of
past if the leaders at all levels can stop their egos, forgo their
selfishness and renew their commitment to the people who elected
them.......
During his Easter message to Nigerians, Bola Tinubu said only a
bi-partisan approach can curb Boko Haram and secure the country and
the insurgents need to be curbed urgently too.
According to Bola Tinubu, Nigeria has no business with poverty,
insecurity and massive unemployment as we have abundant natural
resources and human capacity, adding that the Nigeria of today is not
exactly the Nigeria we use to Know or hear befor.
Let all men of goodwill, irrespective of party, religion or creed come
together to find a solution to this issue of unconscionable killings
and shedding of blood. We cannot continue to see the corps and graves
of our dead children and compatriots and claim that we were elected to
lead them.
Nigerians deserve peace. They deserve better. They also deserve a
government that can apply itself to the task at hand, he said.
While wishing Christians a happy Easter celebration, called on them to
continue to pray for Nigeria so that God intervene and turn things
around for the country.
He said, As we remember the death of Jesus and celebrate his
resurrection, we must never forget that if not for the sacrifice he
made for all, there could never have been a celebration and hope for a
better tomorow.
Such is the message of Easter to all our leaders to make the
sacrifices necessary so that our country will be better.
We must all pray that God will provide Nigeria with leaders who are
God fearing and with the vision and will to embark on the kind of
change the country needs.
May the spirit of Easter nudge us all in that direction of
selflessness and service to our motherland.

APC Governors Set For Meeting With President Goodluck Jonathan
GOVERNORS of the opposition (APC) have reportedly resolved to attend
the Wednesday enlarged security meeting called by President Goodluck
Jonathan over the Boko Haram issue, despite the misgivings over the
botched Thursday meeting.
ADVERTISEMENT
A source told Saturday Tribune on Friday that the governors decided to
attend the meeting in order not to allow the ruling Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) pin the Boko Haram tag on them in the public space as
being attempted by its chieftains.
Deep concern for public safety and peace in all the parts of the
country also reportedly informed their resolve. The caveat is that
they must be properly invited.
The party has, however, accused the president and the PDP of
politicising Nigeria's security by engaging in outright deception to
exclude APC governors from the Thursday meeting.
In a statement issued in Lagos on Friday by its Interim National
Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said after
deliberately excluding the governors from the meeting, the Presidency
and the PDP then engaged in outright disinformation and distortion of
facts to make it look as if the APC governors deliberately boycotted
the meeting, in an effort to make political gain from the whole issue.
"It is now clear that despite their inability to protect lives and
property and to stop the terrorist attacks in the country, the
Presidency and the PDP are not interested in any genuine efforts to
end the worsening security situation. It is patently obvious that
their aim is to make political capital out of the tragedy that has
befallen Nigeria, rather than to ameliorate the cruel fate being daily
suffered by the citizens," it said.
APC said the same Presidency that invited all state governors to the
expanded National Security Council meeting, which was announced via a
statement issued on April 16th by the president's Special Adviser on
Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, had no qualms in allegedly
duping the APC governors out of the meeting and turning it to a
parochial meeting of governors of the PDP and its satellite parties,
only to shift the blame on the same governors who were conned!
The party said after the Presidency publicly invited all state
governors to the meeting, it then clandestinely reached out to the APC
governors to say the meeting had been called off; only to turn around
and accuse them (APC governors) of shunning the meeting.
"The Kwara State government confirmed that its Chief Detail received a
call from the Presidency to the effect that the meeting had been
called off.
Then, the Deputy Governor of Borno State, who had already arrived in
Abuja for the meeting, also learnt that it had been called off.
Curiously, the meeting that was announced publicly by the Presidency
was not even listed among the president's official engagement for
Thursday.
"Despite all these glaring evidences of a grand plot to exclude APC
governors, the president's Assistant on New Media, Reno Omokri – the
same fellow who tried to malign the suspended Governor of the Central
Bank of Nigeria – took to Twitter to tell the world that the APC
governors shunned the meeting and accused them of playing politics
with national security.
"Unfortunately, while the fallacious Omokri was tweeting lies, the
Chairman of the PDP Governors Forum, Governor Godswill Akpabio, was
telling journalists that the APC governors were not invited to the
meeting, and that it was initiated by the PDP governors (not minding
that the governors of states controlled by the All Progressive Grand
Alliance and Labour Party were in attendance).
"Who then is lying between the Presidency and the chairman of the PDP
Governors' Forum? Why would The Presidency engage in such a grand
design just to make the APC governors look bad? Is this a part of the
plan to shift the blame for the state of insecurity on the APC and to
make the party look bad ahead of the 2015 elections and the preceding
ones? Is this in furtherance of President Jonathan's improper blame of
the governors of the worst-hit states of Adamawa, Borno and Yobe for
the insurgency in their states? Can any genuine efforts to resolve the
crisis exclude the governors of the three states?
"The Presidency is playing a dangerous game by seeking to make
political capital out of an insurgency that has claimed thousands of
lives, and done incalculable damage to property and the economy. It is
now clear that this Presidency has its eyes firmly fixed on
benefitting from the insurgency, and that it has no interest in any
genuine measures to end it.
"Were it not so, the Presidency and the PDP would not have attempted
to deceive the whole nation into believing that the APC governors
shunned a meeting to address the issue. Were it not so, President
Jonathan would not have been dancing in Kano, where he went on an
electioneering campaign, less than 24 hours after 75 of his
compatriots were killed in a bomb blast in Abuja, and even as school
girls were being abducted in Borno. Were it not so, the PDP would not
have acted so insensitively by blaming the opposition, even as the
nation was still grieving," it said.
APC, however, reiterated its earlier statement that in the overriding
interest of the nation, it was willing and ready to be part of all
genuine efforts to end the terrorist attacks, and that only a
non-partisan approach could end the security crisis....
the Wednesday enlarged security meeting called by President Goodluck
Jonathan over the Boko Haram issue, despite the misgivings over the
botched Thursday meeting.

A source told Saturday Tribune on Friday that the governors decided to
attend the meeting in order not to allow the ruling Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) pin the Boko Haram tag on them in the public space as
being attempted by its chieftains.
Deep concern for public safety and peace in all the parts of the
country also reportedly informed their resolve. The caveat is that
they must be properly invited.
The party has, however, accused the president and the PDP of
politicising Nigeria's security by engaging in outright deception to
exclude APC governors from the Thursday meeting.
In a statement issued in Lagos on Friday by its Interim National
Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said after
deliberately excluding the governors from the meeting, the Presidency
and the PDP then engaged in outright disinformation and distortion of
facts to make it look as if the APC governors deliberately boycotted
the meeting, in an effort to make political gain from the whole issue.
"It is now clear that despite their inability to protect lives and
property and to stop the terrorist attacks in the country, the
Presidency and the PDP are not interested in any genuine efforts to
end the worsening security situation. It is patently obvious that
their aim is to make political capital out of the tragedy that has
befallen Nigeria, rather than to ameliorate the cruel fate being daily
suffered by the citizens," it said.
APC said the same Presidency that invited all state governors to the
expanded National Security Council meeting, which was announced via a
statement issued on April 16th by the president's Special Adviser on
Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, had no qualms in allegedly
duping the APC governors out of the meeting and turning it to a
parochial meeting of governors of the PDP and its satellite parties,
only to shift the blame on the same governors who were conned!
The party said after the Presidency publicly invited all state
governors to the meeting, it then clandestinely reached out to the APC
governors to say the meeting had been called off; only to turn around
and accuse them (APC governors) of shunning the meeting.
"The Kwara State government confirmed that its Chief Detail received a
call from the Presidency to the effect that the meeting had been
called off.
Then, the Deputy Governor of Borno State, who had already arrived in
Abuja for the meeting, also learnt that it had been called off.
Curiously, the meeting that was announced publicly by the Presidency
was not even listed among the president's official engagement for
Thursday.
"Despite all these glaring evidences of a grand plot to exclude APC
governors, the president's Assistant on New Media, Reno Omokri – the
same fellow who tried to malign the suspended Governor of the Central
Bank of Nigeria – took to Twitter to tell the world that the APC
governors shunned the meeting and accused them of playing politics
with national security.
"Unfortunately, while the fallacious Omokri was tweeting lies, the
Chairman of the PDP Governors Forum, Governor Godswill Akpabio, was
telling journalists that the APC governors were not invited to the
meeting, and that it was initiated by the PDP governors (not minding
that the governors of states controlled by the All Progressive Grand
Alliance and Labour Party were in attendance).
"Who then is lying between the Presidency and the chairman of the PDP
Governors' Forum? Why would The Presidency engage in such a grand
design just to make the APC governors look bad? Is this a part of the

No one can Stop My Presidential Ambition come 2015 (Bola Tinubu)
The Former Governor of Lagos State also leader of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has declared that no one can stop his
presidential ambition come 2015 if he declares for the presidency or
any public office. Bola said he has the right to be the President of
Nigeria regardless of his religion and state of origin, saying any
opposition against his political aspiration should find something
else to do.
We hv to choose the right person to lead the country. And nobody, no
one under the sun, under the United Nations Human Rights Charter can
stop my ambition of being the president.
If I want to be the President, I have that right, regardless of which
zone, religion and which state, says the APC leader who spoke amidst
heightened rumour that the opposition party was planning a
Muslim-Muslim ticket, which will feature Muhammadu Buhari and Tinubu
in the 2015 presidential election.
Speaking on Wednesday at the APC secretariat in Lagos, the former
governor said APC will feature the best candidate in 2015 election,
whether the person is a Christian or Muslim. Bola later told the party
members, who asked him about his decision on the 2015 presidency, I
will let you know my decision.
Tinubu also took a swipe at the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
over the state of the nation, saying that President Goodluck
Jonathan-led PDP government has failed Nigerians in terms of security
of lives and properties, youth employment and delivering dividends of
democracy to Nigerians.
"The solution to the suffering of the masses is not about the prayer
of a pastor or about the Islamic cleric. What we are talking about is
not an election of a vicar or bishop not of a Muslim Imam or cleric;
it is about individual with the character and the brain and the
capacity to govern. If you are a Christian and you are good, you will
gain our support.
If you are a Muslim and you are good, you will also gain our support.
At the time of need, we must choose the right leaders to face the
battle and confront the challenge facing the country,Bola Tinubu said

Primate Ayodele prophecies:More Bomb Blasts and Jonathan Knows Those Responsible.
The Founderof Inri Evangelical Spiritual Church, Oke Afa, Isolo,
Lagos, Primate Ayodele whose predictions always come to pass has said
in a recent interview that there will be more bomb blasts in the
country.
He said since security intelligence does not recognise prophecy,
bloodletting will continue.
As he said, there are moles in the Presidency, the Senate, House Of
Representatives, SSS, Nigeria Police Force, the Army, Air Force and
the Navy who give information to these terrorists and President
Jonathan knows who they are but is afraid of them, adding that their
next targets are shopping malls and markets.
He said that with prayers, these problems can be over but the
counrtries leaders have soiled their hands in evil acts and they
derive pleasure in the shedding of blood.
He said, If Jonathan comes back 100 times to rule this country, he
won't be able to solve the problems. He does not listen to the voice
of God, flattery and deceit are good music to him. When you praise him
he is always happy. Most of the pastors he goes to are afraid to tell
him the truth. There a is red signal all over the country.
He said they will speak the mind of the people and make
recommendations but the government will not listen.
On the political situation in the country, he said members of the All
Progressives Congress, APC will defect to PDP before the 2015
elections and if APC refuses to give Muhammadu Buhari the ticket to
contest the presidency he will quit, adding that there will be no
elections in some state.
He called on all governors to pray so as not to lose four of their own
to the cold hands of death.
On the abducted students, he said they will come out unhurt.
Speaking on Super Eagles and the world cup, he said they will try but
they won't get to the semi-final and Coach Stephen Keshi will quit
coaching them after the World Cup.
And on the missing Malaysian flight, he said the Malaysian government
should be held responsible because they know its whereabouts.

Super eagles are not afraid of Argentina says keshi.
coach Stephen Keshi has reacted to the comments made by Argentina
coach Alejandro Sabella who claimed that La Albiceleste would be
feared by rivals at the World Cup in Brazil.
Argentina and Nigeria are in Group F alongside Bosnia-Herzegovina and
Iran in the World Cup. While Bosnia are making their debut at this
year's event, Nigeria and Argentina have met thrice at the World Cup
level since 1994.
Sabella is banking on the magic of the barcelona's stiker Lionel Messi
and an array of defenders, but Keshi would rather have the battle done
on the pitch instead of naming any star player.
"I don't fear people, I respect people. Fear is not in my lineage, I
don't see my team afread of any other team at the World Cup.When we go
to Brazil in June, you all will see what will happen. Let's just leave
it that way," the Africa Cup of Nations winner said in Lagos on
Tuesday.
"We will take every match as it comes. The important thing is to have
our players ready for the tournament."
Keshi, who was a guest of Friesland Campina WAMCO Plc at the unveiling
of a campaign in support of the Super Eagles ahead of the World Cup,
played the lead role in the new Peak Milk TV commercial.
The tactician was recently queried by the Nigeria Football Federation
for attending a press conference in Lagos without its permission, but
on Tuesday, Keshi claimed the football body knew about his movement.
"NFF is aware of my activities in Lagos. Peak is the official milk of
the Super Eagles so my employers are aware of my presence at this
event," he said.
"I've worked with kids in the United States so it wasn't new for me to
work with them in the TV commercial. It's a lot easier working with
kids; they give you everything you ask of them.
"I always try to avoid doing TV commercials. The last one I did was 25
years ago, with the late Rashidi Yekini. But this time, I couldn't say
no.
"I didn't know about the importance of milk until I became Mali coach
for two years. In every household in Mali , the first thing they take
in the morning is milk. When I went back to the US , I asked my doctor
about this practice and he told me how important it is

nobody Can ever make me to Cut My Dreadlocks -- Rapper Phyno Speaks.
No body can doubt this, Phyno is coming to his own, not only by
distinguishing himself as a Rastafarian with a touch of class but also
by giving the hip-hop, Afrobeat guys a run for their money, in the
music scene reggae guys are packing up their stuffs. Having done a
collaboration with a Jamaican reggae great, Cocoa Tea, Phyno has also
taken his music around the world, touring Europe and Asia, after
seeing just about too much of Africa.
He is a cool dude, who does everything every Rastafarian does except
looking gaudy like the most of them we have seen. He's got the
dreadlocks like most and he is as crazy as the next Rastafarian about
it.
In a recent chat withPotpourri, Phyno revealed he has had his
dreadlocks for thirteen years now and he doesn't see how he would ever
be seen without it
"Someone has actually begged me with a hundred thousand to have it
cut. But nothing can make me cut it. It's my identity, I'm a
Rastafarian. I believe in living natural, the way God made me. I feel
n***d without my dreadlocks.
When I was younger, my mum used to cut my hair and I used to feel so
shy and n***d. It gives me a lot of confidence" he said

Muslim President, Muslim Vice President Candidacy? APC Will Lose Woefully – Fani Kayode Speaks(2015 Election)
The Former Minister of Aviation and member of All Progressive Party, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has condemned the idea of his party fielding a Muslim/Muslim ticket for the 2015 presidential race, saying it is a big mistake that will lead the party to failure, come the election.
Fani-Kayode stated this in an article titled: THE STRANGE DREAM OF A MUSLIM/MUSLIM TICKET (PART 1), posted on his Facebook wall yesterday.
He said that even though the party leadership has not officially expressed such intention, he is aware of party members advocating and canvassing the idea.
He wrote “Whether we like to admit it or not this has become a heated discussion with party leaders divided on being for or against it.
“This is not 1993 and whether we like it or not we must accept the fact that religion plays a major role in our politics today. This is not ideal, but it is the reality that we have to accept and live with.
“Our party must have a christian and a muslim on the ticket if we want to be taken seriously in the Presidential election. I implore those that think otherwise to sit down and think this through properly.
“We must not present a christian/christian ticket as this would be insensitive to the feelings of muslims and vice versa. I will never support a ticket that presents two members of the same faith no matter what the consequences would be.” He concluded
Meanwhile, his counterpart former Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Nasir El-Rufai opined on his Twitter handle that APC will produce a Presidential and Vice Presidential candidate that have ”integrity, capacity and competence” and that the religious faith of the candidates does not matter.
