Soldiers shaves man's hair because it was hairy
Something happened recently in Warri and I'd be grateful if you're able to share it on your blog so that folks could be more alert to the madness perpetuated by army officers who're said to be protecting the citizens of the great nation.
Continue..
On Monday the 19th of May, 2014, my nephew was a lone passenger in a Keke (commercial tricycle) on his way returning from work along PTI road, Effurun. The Keke was flagged down by some soldiers for no obvious reason. They told him to get down and kneel down which he did. Before he could grasp what was going on, they'd started initially to shave off his hair with a couple of scissors, claiming that his hair was too bushy. Attached is a picture of what his hair appeared when he arrived home.
Can't a responsible child move about freely in his country anymore or is this a way to try to provoke youths to restiveness? Unfortunately, the soldiers, who'd been terrorizing residents and passersby that area for the entire day, had no name tags on the uniforms. The army Toyota Hilux with registration number 148 is the only real exhibit through which they could be traced.

Ugandan President ridicules Pres. GEJ for accepting international assistance
While speaking at a campaign rally yesterday, Uganda's President, Yoweri Museveni mocked President Jonathan for accepting foreign assistance to help fight Boko Haram. The former guerrila fighter said he'd rather commit suicide than ask the international community to guard his people against terrorists
“I have never called the United Nations to guard us. Me, Yoweri Museveni to say that I have failed to protect my people and I call on the UN: I would rather hang myself. We prioritized national security by developing a strong Army, otherwise our Uganda would be like DRC, South Sudan, Somalia or Nigeria where militias have disappeared with school children.
“It would be a vote of no confidence in our country and citizens if we cannot guarantee our security. What kind of persons would we be?” He said

Rev King Is In Prison But See What’s Happening In His Church
Seven years after the General Overseer of the Christian Praying Assembly, Lagos, Rev Chukwuemeka Ezeugo, aka Reverend King, was convicted for murder and attempted murder, Folashade Adebayo attended a service in the church to see how things are going.
Last Sunday was another anniversary celebration of the Christian Praying Assembly, Isolo, Lagos. But as at 9am when Punch correspondent got there, the imposing three black gates of the church were still shut. If not for a number of cars parked opposite the church and a middle-aged man who stood by one of the imposing gates, praying earnestly, one would have concluded that the church, founded by the convicted Chukwuemeka Ezeugo, also known as Rev. King, was on a recess.

Jonathan may be Nigeria's last president - Ex-Gov. Orji Uzor Kalu
Former Governor of Abia state, Dr Orji Uzor Kalu, while speaking with airport correspondents yesterday as he returned from a trip to the UK, said if things are not properly checked politically, President Jonathan might be the last president Nigeria will have.
"When I was travelling precisely on the 26 of April, I left this airport and I spoke to the airport correspondents and I said there was a need to collaborate with international organisations. You see, this issue is not about President Goodluck Jonathan. If we don’t take time and work together as Nigerians, Jonathan might be the last Nigerian President. Jonathan might be the Gorbachev of Nigeria. And that is the truth, so we better wake up. Political class, business class, military, civilians must now stand up to work for our internal security. Internal security is more important than anything we have done and I believe that once we are able to come together Nigeria will be alright. As of now the country is in pains; the country is in problem and some people are taking it very lightly.Continue after the break.

Direct your protest to terrorists – Jonathan
President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday urged those who have been protesting the abduction of over 200 schoolgirls in Chibok, Borno State, to henceforth direct their protest to the Boko Haram terrorists and not the government. The President also urged the protesters to learn from citizens of other countries who do not blame their governments for any terrorist act.
He has however admitted publicly for the first time that his administration was currently consulting with some stakeholders with a view to exploring what he called alternative methods of resolving the present crisis.

APC govs move to take over party structure
The battle for the control of the structure of the opposition All Progressives Congress appears to have taken a dramatic twist. This followed an unprecedented decision by the Rochas Okorocha-led Progressive Governors Forum, to install the Sokoto State Governor, Aliyu Wamakko and Senator Chris Ngige as chairman and secretary of the National Convention Planning Committee.
It was gathered that the National Executive Council meeting of the party held in Abuja, on Tuesday, was designed to throw up Kawu Baraje and Senator Ajayi Boroffice, as chairman and secretary of the committee, but the governors played a fast one on the party leaders. However, the Interim National Publicity Secretary of the party, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, dismissed the information as false.

Without enough funds, we can’t defeat B’Haram – Army
In a clear term, the Nigerian Army on Wednesday declared that its soldiers could not march force with force with the dreaded Boko Haram insurgents.
The Chief of Accounts and Budget (army), Maj.-Gen. Abdullahi Muraina, said this at Jaji, near Kaduna at a training programme for the Nigerian Army Finance Corps Warrant Officers and Senior Non-Commissioned officers. Muraina said without adequate funding, the army would not be able to halt the current activities of Boko Haram.
He said, “Currently, budgetary allocation for the military is inadequate to meet the contemporary security challenges and also cater for the welfare of the Nigerian Army.”
Son of pregnant Sudanese woman sentenced to death forced to live in her prison cell.
We thought that Meriam’s story could not get any worse, but it has. It turns out that while a very pregnant Meriam awaits her death sentence in prison, her precious little boy has been forced to live inside her prison cell with her. Meriam will also have to care for her unborn baby in that cell once it is born.
The UN is intervening and trying to save an 8 month pregnant woman from the death penalty in Sudan who married a Christian man. Reports claim that the Sudanese government will not allow Martin’s father to care for him while Meriam is in prison solely because he is both a Christian and an American citizen.

Pastor Arrested For "Boko-Haram" "Drama" In Osun State Elombah
The little town of Ikonifin in Ola Oluwa Local government area of Osun State was thrown into an uproar when a church leader’s, Pastor Olatoke’s, ploy to “duplicate” Boko Haram in the vicinity was foiled by some sprightly youths. The ploy would have placed Muslims living in Ikonifin in a very sore light if the attempt by Pastor Olatoke was successful.
The pastor of the Baptist church Ikonifin, who is also the CAN President of Ola Oluwa Local Government, was reported to have conspired with three members of his church, Emmanuel Atanda, Pitter Oyedepo and Ogunniyi Babatope to dress like Boko Haram militants and use turban to cover their faces.
