Ak-47 Carrying Herdsmen Streamed Into Nigeria From Libya – Buhari Tells Nigerians in London

President Muhammadu Buhari said herdsmen accused of killing Nigerians are non-Nigerians. He told Nigerians in London on Friday that the Ak-47 carrying herdsmen streamed into Nigeria from Libya.

“Because of what happened in Libya, when Ghadaffi, during his 43 year-regime, trained some people from the Sahel militarily. When his regime was overthrown, those people were dispatched to their countries. They found themselves in the Boko Haram and others.

“It is a major regional and virtually African problem now. There is one called Al Qaeda, there is Boko Haram and so on. It is a governmental project now to trace them, disarm them, try them and discipline them.”

The world needs Trump and I am with him all the way - Fani-Kayode

A few weeks ago I wrote an essay which was published in all my columns titled "Mr. Trump and Islam". In that contribution I argued that Mr. Donald Trump, the American entrepeuner and billionaire presidential candidate, was unstoppable.

I said he would win the nomination and then go on to win the election against Hillary Clinton.

The first has happened and the second will happen as well. The world needs Trump and I am with him all the way.

During the coming election debates he should do the Nigerian people a favour and ask Hillary Clinton one question.

Russian airstrikes have killed at least 5,799 people in Syria since Moscow's aerial campaign started in late September, the opposition-aligned Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Saturday.

According to the British-based NGO, at least 2,005 civilians were among those killed, including 481 minors and 305 women.

The Russian airstrikes, which began on Sept. 30, have also claimed the lives of 2,035 Islamic State fighters, as well as 1,759 members of Syrian rebel factions and the Al-Nusra Front, Al Qaeda's affiliate in Syria.

France to increase troop numbers in Ivory Coast after beach attack

French Defence minister Jean-Yves Le Drian

(Reuters) - France will nearly double the number of troops it has in Ivory Coast, the defence minister said on Saturday on a visit during which he laid flowers at the site of an attack on tourists that killed 19 people.

Jean-Yves Le Drian placed a bouquet on the beach in Grand Bassam, a resort town 40 km (25 miles) from Abidjan, where gunmen shot swimmers and sunbathers before storming hotels last month, an attack claimed by Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb. Four French citizens were killed.

9/11 Terrorist attacks pages have ‘very profound’ info on Saudi Arabia - Trump

Donald Trump on Tuesday said that the 28 redacted pages of the 9/11 report likely depict Saudi Arabia’s role in the terrorist attacks.

“I think I know what it’s going to say,” he said on Fox News’s “Fox & Friends." "It’s going to be very profound, having to do with Saudi Arabia and Saudi Arabia’s role on the World Trade Center and the attack.

“That’s very serious stuff. It’s sort of nice to know who your friends are, and perhaps who your enemies are. You’re going to see some very revealing things released in those papers.”

Lawmakers are pressuring President Obama to declassify the 28 pages.

The redacted documents have long been rumored to show information linking Saudi Arabia with the Sept. 11, 2011 bloodshed and al Qaeda.

Putin deploys missiles in Syria after Turkey shoots down bomber

Russia deployed long-range air defense missiles at its air base in Syria Thursday in a rapid response to the downing of one of its bombers by a Turkish warplane.

Russia's state-owned RIA Novosti news agency, quoting its own reporter on the ground, reported that the shipment of S-400 long-range missiles had been delivered. They will be based in Syria's coastal province of Latakia, just 30 miles away from the border with Turkey and are capable of striking targets within a 250-mile range with deadly precision.

The deployment of the missiles came hours after Turkey released audio recordings of what it says are the Turkish military's warnings to the pilot of the Russian Su-24 bomber that was shot down at the border with Syria early Tuesday.

Snapshot: Three days of Russian air strikes on Syria And Criticisms, Paris States 3 Conditions to Cooperate with Russia in Syria

Sukhoi warplanes used by Russia in Syria anti-terror

A snapshot of developments since Russia's first air strikes on Syria, an intervention the West says is directed more at regime opponents than Islamic State group jihadists.

On Friday, French President Francois Hollande and Russia's Vladimir Putin had an in-depth discussion on Syria on Friday in which they "tried to narrow down differences on political transition," an aide to Hollande said after the two met in Paris.

The aide did not say if they had succeeded in any way in the 1h15-minute conversation, which took place ahead of a meeting the two men had with the leaders of Germany and Ukraine aimed at resolving the Ukraine crisis.

Grand Conspiracy And Complicit In Boko Haram Islamism

Ignorance is not always unforgivable. There is a strand of ignorance that makes a hesitant, timid public appearance, unsure of itself. You encounter it and you know that it is teachable, redeemable. That strand is forgivable. Confronted with superior logic, it revises its priors and you tell it to go and sin no more. However, there is a second strand which hits the public sphere with the confidence and self-assuredness of a garlanded owner of the domain. This sort of cocky, unteachable, irredeemable ignorance is not content with a humble public appearance. It insists on viewership, on an audience, on spectators. If you say you have no money to attend the show, it distributes free tickets.

Why Hillary Clinton Refuse to Make Life Difficult for Boko Haram.

Josh Rogin reports at the Daily Beast that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made a terrible call on Nigerian terrorist group Boko Haram. That group is reported to have kidnapped over 200 young girls, and is now threatening to sell them into slavery.

Overnight, the group launched a violent attack that left as many as 310 dead. Its very name — Boko Haram — means “western education is sinful.” It’s linked to al Qaeda.

Back in 2011, several agencies within the US government wanted to slap the terrorist label on Boko Haram. Those agencies lobbied to put Boko Haram on the US State Department’s official list of terrorist groups. Hillary Clinton was secretary of state at the time, and she refused to label Boko Haram a terrorist group, despite pleading from others within the Obama administration.

Boko Haram: Femi Fani-Kayode And APC Muslim/Muslim Ticket (1)

"...................... APC is not an affiliate of Al Qaeda and neither is it a Boko Haram party, a Janjaweed party or a Muslim Brotherhood Party."

“The last notable Christian-Christian ticket was Awolowo-Umeadi in 1979 and the last notable Muslim-Muslim ticket was Abiola-Kingibe in 1993. You can figure out the rest. But let the optimists know that reality always trounces wishful hope in political contests. Chief Femi Fani-Kayode’s advice that we get real must be directed where it truly belongs – to the leadership of the APC,” Chief Kayode Samuel, Facebook, 29th March 2014.

I thank my brother Kayode Samuel for his contribution and I shall take his advice and direct my counsel to the leadership of the APC and to the Nigerian people in general. That is the purpose of this essay and so important is the subject matter under consideration that I would urge as many as possible to find the time to read it from the beginning to the end.
