December 21st, 2013 – Boko Haram Terrorists Enter Nigeria Through Cameroon Border, Attack Army Barracks In Borno State

Some Boko Haram terrorists who unleashed terror on Army barracks in Bama, Borno State yesterday entered the country through the Cameroon border.

According to a report from the Defence Headquarters, the terrorists entered Borno from cells located across Nigerian Border with Cameroun through Banki town.

The Boko Haramists used high powered weapons like rocket propelled and anti-aircraft guns in the attack that lasted for over 4 hours.

A statement signed by Major General Chris Olukolade, Director of Defence Information, noted that “Ground troops backed by the Air Force have repelled the attack and are in pursuit of the insurgents.

“Details of casualties recorded in the incident will be released when the ongoing cordon and search operations in the general area is concluded” Olukolade said.

Meanwhile, reinforcement has been dispatched to enhance the operation in pursuit of the terrorists” the statement said adding “Normalcy is being restored in the barracks and the surrounding communities properly secured”

Boko Haram terrorists are fond of using loopholes in Nigeria’s security system to carry out their attacks. It is high time Nigerian military beef up their security tactics.

    “Behold, I am sending for many fishers, says the LORD, and they shall catch them; and afterwards I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain and every hill, and out of the clefts of the rocks; For my eyes are upon all their way; they are not hid from me, nor is their iniquity concealed from my eyes. And I will doubly recompense their iniquity and their sin, because they have polluted my land with their blood sucking religion (IsIamic) and have filled my inheritance with their abominations.” says the LORD.

    For quite some time, there have been
    numerous cases of Christians involved in terrorist related acts, but such cases are never investigated by the Police and SSS, even in instances where they were caught red handed in the act. I will give a few instances in 2010 alone,

    1. Moses Ashaji and Papa, arrested on Friday, 19th February, 2010 along Akwanga-Jos
    Road with huge stocks of locally manufactured rifles. Also, Daniel Chayi Gyang, Amos
    Akila and Mbono Musa, were arrested with
    deadly weapons, including rocket launchers, grenades and AK47 rifles, intercepted by the SSS in Maiduguri on 30th July, 2010 on their way to Plateau State.

    2. There was another case of eleven well armed terrorists arrested in August 2010, including the village head of Nasarawa Village,
    Chief Danteri Bongwat of Langtang South, and an illegal armory located in Kuru, Plateau
    State. These cases were widely reported in the
    media, but the CAN SSS never took any action, because they were not Muslims.

    3. Still in 2010, the Punch Newspaper reported the arrest of Five (5) Pastors
    “for operating an Illegal Military outfit” (a
    Euphemism for terrorist activity, since the word is exclusively reserved
    for Muslims), in Lagos, with their photographs published at page 11 of
    the Wednesday edition, 10th March, 2010.

    4. The examples are too numerous to cite here,
    but the most recent were two news reports on the arrest CAN Military operatives by
    the police “for operating illegal security outfit” in Jalingo, Taraba State.
    Those arrested included Reverend Chaplain Shehu Yakubu, a retired customs officer Sunday Silas, retired SSS officer Sulaiman Audu, a retired ASP Y. Winew, a retired ASP Isma’ila Makaniki and many
    others. This was reported by the Daily Trust Newspaper of Saturday, 2nd November, 2013 at page 10.

    5. In the same paper(daily trust) , at Page 8, was another report, “Police nab woman, 2 others over militia training in
    Gombe”, in which one Mrs. Deborah Babayo
    and two men were
    reportedly arrested by the Gombe Police
    Command “for conducting illegal militia training under the auspices of an
    illegal organization, called “The Elite Corps” on the outskirts of Gombe, on 1st November,
    2013. In both cases, which we believe the
    Police and SSS will sweep under the carpet as usual, the concern of the Police in the two reports was the “sums of money involved but unfortunately, though not surprisingly, they were silent on the
    cache of arms recovered.
    Perhaps even more revealing in the unfolding drama of double standards and deception by the Federal Government and its CAN
    controlled security agencies are widely
    reported cases of Christians, too numerous to mention, who were actually
    caught in the act of terrorism, which were never investigated, let
    alone prosecuted. There
    have been more than twenty of such cases, but I will cite about half a dozen as examples, in Gombe, Bauchi, Bayelsa,
    Plateau, Lagos, Benue and Rivers States.

    6. In Gombe State, there was a report on the arrest of Christian men that sprayed bullets on the Gombe Deeper Life Church
    worshippers. Igbos were the suspects arrested who were reportedly taken to Abuja. Shortly thereafter, two Christians, Hassan Ojudu and Sama’ila Yakubu were arrested with a vehicle loaded with explosive devices and ammunitions. Curiously, they too were reportedly taken to Abuja, and as usual, nothing has been heard
    from the SSS Spokeswoman or in the news, to date. Still in Gombe State, one
    Madam Ruth was caught attempting to bomb ECWA Church in the Kalarin area of Kaltungo. But the security agencies claimed she was
    “hypnotized” and was conveniently set free.

    7.In Bauchi State, one Miss Lydia Joseph was also caught red handed trying to set ST. John Catholic Church in Bauchi on fire, but
    she was immediately set free, with the
    explanation that she had a problem with a boyfriend member of the Church!

    8. Shortly after that incident, eight (8) COCIN Church members were arrested with
    explosive devices while attempting to bomb the Miya-Barkatai branch
    of the Church. By the following Sunday, they
    were free to participate in Church service.

    9. In Plateau State, in March 2012, a Christian
    wearing Military Uniform, later identified as a member of the COCIN Church, was lynched while trying to escape after the bombing of the same Church headquarters in Jos.

    10. A few days later, on Sunday 25th March, 2012, the Special Task Force (STF) paraded one Mr. Alex Danladi, who was caught wearing army camouflage, along with one Mr. Dung Bulus, a well known fabricator of guns, and some others the authorities said
    were students of the University of Jos.

    11. A few weeks later, on 10th April, 2012 one Mr. Monday Davou was arrested, caught red handed, planting a timed improvised explosive device (IED), at the Makera
    weekly market in Riyom Local Government Area, Plateau State. This was evidently aimed at committing mass murder that was to have
    been instantly attributed to Boko Haram, to provide a good excuse to attack Muslims, demonize Islam and opportunity to loot Muslim property and cattle!

    12. In Lagos, the Saturday Sun newspaper of 10th March, 2012, at page 10, reported that 11 cartons of explosives imported from South
    Africa, which were carefully packaged to beat security checks, where intercepted by the Nigerian Customs Service at the Murtala
    Muhammad International Airport, Lagos. The huge consignments were for Miero Marble Granite and Stones Ltd, in Kaduna State, with
    one Mr. Micheal Awara Ernest as the Company
    representative to collect the explosives at the Cargo terminal.
    The statement of the Customs Area commandant at the Airport, Mr. Charles Eporwei Edike, which was profoundly insightful on the intent and probable consequences of the explosive, fell on the deaf ears of the SSS. He said “if those items were released, they could have been used to
    cause mayhem. We are now going to hand him
    and the items over to the Police for further investigation”. Well, since the handover, neither the Police nor the Spokeswoman of the
    almighty SSS have not said, or done anything on the case. It would be most surprising if he was not set free with his
    toxic import, to kill Muslims.

    13. In Benue State, on Sunday, 19th February, 2013 four (4) persons, were arrested
    while trying to detonate explosives at the ST. There’s a small Catholic Parish in Makurdi.
    The Leadership newspaper of Wednesday, 22nd February, 2012, at
    page 10, reported the Police PRO, Mr. Ejike as
    saying that the four terrorists arrested were Christians. But before the honest revelation,
    the members of the public had already jumped to the conclusion that they were Muslims.

    14. On January 11th 2012, two Nigerians, Sunday Eze from Anambra State and one Samuel Taiwo from Ogun State with three other Ghanains were arrested in Ghana, with heavy weaponry, carefully concealed in a truck which was to be brought to Nigeria. The question to ask the Police, SSS and the
    Presidency is who were behind the order?
    Certainly not Muslims . While Opposing the bail of the terrorists in court on Tuesday, March 27th, 2012 the office of the Attorney General of the Republic of Ghana said
    “the arms and ammunitions seized on transit to Nigeria were to be used to fuel terrorists activities in Nigeria”.
    Which terrorist groups are they that the Nigerian Government, the Police and SSS are
    protecting? It must surely be the bigger, better armed, well financed and protected Government/CAN Boko Haram.

    15. Finally, on specific factual examples, was a BBC news report published by THISDAY Newspaper of Friday, 13th January, 2012 on
    page 6, on a British arms dealer, Gary Hyde
    being prosecuted in a London court for unlawfully arranging the shipment of about 80,000 guns and 32Million rounds of ammunition from China to Nigeria in
    2007. Obviously, it was not meant for Muslim
    terrorists, because if it was, the BBC, CNN and the Nigerian Media would have kept harping on it. As for the Presidency, SSS, the Police and our Armed Forces, this event never happened.

    16. A. few years ago, a systematic robbery of the armory of the Nigerian Army in
    Jaji, the 1st division of the Nigerian Army Kaduna, Ikeja can’t on mental and many other Military formations was widely reported, involving Christian serving Officers and Generals. A Military inquiry was instituted
    and many Christian Officers, serving and retired including the Latest General Azazi, we’re indicted, but nothing was done to any of them. More importantly, were
    are the arms? May be they were given to one
    Boko Haram or another!
    What about the report of the Military Inquiry?

    17. The Presidency is definitely involved in the cover ups and double standards, for why would the President, rush to absolve MENDS from the first terrorist act involving massive bombs in Nigeria, on October 1st, 2009 even before the commencement of any
    investigation and attribute it to Muslim
    Leaders? Why would the Commander in Chief, order the Director General of SSS to publicly, in Church, grant a pardon to a Christian terrorist
    group, OMBATSE, of Nasarawa State, who slaughtered over 80 mobile policemen and 10 SSS operatives? Let any fair minded person
    imagine what would have happened if it was a group in Kano, Katsina, or any Muslims were behind what OMBATSE did! As for the double standards of the SSS; it seems to be a part of their training or culture, to provide excuses and explanations for any Christian unfortunate to be caught in a terrorist
    activity. The Eggon Christian tribesman of the Minister of Information (and Defence!) who was also caught red handed with arms at the
    Federal Ministry of Information, readily comes to mind. The SSS Spokeswoman explained off this security breach as a non-issue, since it was not a Muslim that was involved.
