Politics / Army Kill 37 B'haram In Borno by oLAAbEfe(m): 8:52am On Oct 23, 2013
The 7 Division of the Nigerian Army said on
Tuesday that it had killed 37 suspected
Boko Haram militants after an operation in
Borno.
The Spokesman of the division, Captain
Aliyu Danja, made the disclosure in a
statement in Maiduguri.
“Based on available intelligence, troops of 7
Division of the Nigerian Army launched
attacks on a suspected Boko Haram camp
located in Alagarno in Borno.
“The operation, which commenced last
Monday, involved a coordinated ground and
air assault,” he said.
He said it was a coordinated attack by
troops of the 7 Div. in conjunction with 79
composite group of the Nigerian Air Force,
Maiduguri, aimed at destroying the
terrorists’ camp.
“A total of 37 suspected Boko Haram
militants were killed in a gunfire exchange
while several others fled with gun shot
wounds,’’ the spokesman said.
He also said that, “arms and ammunition
were recovered. Three Hilux vehicles and
several motorcycles belonging to the
suspects were destroyed.’’
Danja also confirmed the killing of four
persons during last Sunday’s attack by
suspected Boko Haram militants in
Logomani village near Gamboru-Ngala
border.
“In the early hours of Sunday, suspected
Boko Haram terrorists numbering about 50,
armed with AK 47 rifles and rocket
propellers, blocked the Gamboru Ngala
Dikwa Road at Logomani village, killing four
civilians and injuring two.
“They also set ablaze four trailers, two fuel
tankers and snatched an Isuzu pick up
loaded with provisions,’’ he said.
Danja said, “The attackers fled the scene on
arrival of troops of the 7 Div.
“Also, suspected militants attacked
members of youths vigilance group who
were returning from a funeral in Bama.
“Three members of the vigilance group
were killed and their vehicle set ablaze.
“Troops of 7 Division are currently
conducting aggressive patrol at the scene
of the attack to trace all suspected hide

Politics / Face Of Insecurity..formal President Olusegun Obasanjo by oLAAbEfe(m): 11:13pm On Oct 22, 2013
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has
charged the citizens not to lose hope in the
face of insecurity and socio-economic crises
in the land.
Obasanjo spoke on Monday shortly after
being conferred with the honourary
Doctoral Degree of Science during the
maiden convocation of Afe Babalola
University, Ado Ekiti.
The private university commenced
operation in January, 2010.
Obasanjo, who said the founder of the
University, Chief Afe Babalola, demonstrated
the fact that education was the most
veritable weapon for sustaining good
governance and democracy, said the hope
of a better tomorrow was not lost.
He said, “I know that those who are
thinking that Nigeria has no future will
today have a change of heart. This is
because one person, Chief Afe Babalola, has
been able to make a difference in the field
of education. This is an indication that hope
is not lost on Nigeria.
“The other time, I heard Chief Afe Babalola
saying that education is the best instrument
to fight poverty. But I want to add that it
remains the best instrument to sustain
good governance and democracy”.
He charged the graduating students to be
good ambassadors of the university.
“You have had a good beginning, having
graduated from a good university. But this
is not enough; you have to build on it. If
you don’t, the good beginning becomes
nothing,” he told the graduands.
Babalola said, “Throughout the three and
half years of the University, there was
nothing like public holiday in this school
because Nigerians are used to holiday.
“Students were not allowed to use
telephone because it is a distraction.
“We set a standard and everybody complies.
I marvelled when I heard that some people
in the National University Commission were
murmuring”.
Dignitaries at the event included former
Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Alfa Belgore;
ex-Ekiti State governors, Segun Oni and Ayo
Fayose; the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi
Adeyemi; and deputy governor of Ekiti State,
Prof. Modupe Adelabu.
