Nigeria, Cameroon may clash over Boko Haram
There are strong indications that Nigeria and Cameroon may clash over Boko Haram as the Federal Government accuses Cameroon of harbouring members of the militant Islamic sect. Saturday PUNCH learnt on Thursday that the Federal Government was becoming increasingly frustrated by the refusal of Cameroon to cooperate with Nigeria in its efforts to combat the militant Islamic sect.
A top source in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, who confided in one of our correspondents in Abuja, said that President Goodluck Jonathan would report Cameroon to relevant agencies in the United Nations.
Part of government’s strategy is to adopt the policy of hot pursuit, whereby Nigeria’s military will chase the insurgents into their hideouts and flush them out while those in the diplomatic circles will continue with diplomacy.

Dandora Church Bans ladies From Wearing Underwear To Church-Kenya, says ungodly
According to Ghetto radio, a church called ‘Lord's Propeller Redemption Church'has declared wearing pan-ties to Church as ‘ungodly '.
“All the ladies were informed not to be wearing bras and panties to the church,” a source revealed. The Church's pastor Rev Njohi says that when people head to church, they need to be free in body and spirit in order to receive Christ. He also allegedly warned the congregation of dire consequences for failure to uphold the new law. I wonder how they are going to ensure the congregation follows this new law.
