Two sources disclosed to SaharaReporters that, out of 26 female soldiers posted to the military base of the Multinational Joint Task Force, only eight have so far been accounted for.
Troop commander, Colonel Kuti, has also not been found since the insurgents attacked the town on Saturday.
Nigerian army Residents of Baga told reporters that Boko Haram insurgents invaded their town and killed at least 55 people, including soldiers attached to MNJTF. Both residents and security sources said the insurgent attack lasted close to 18 hours before the Islamist terrorists overpowered the troops and seized the military base.
One military source said the attack took them by surprise. He said the troops made a gallant effort to repel the attack, but that hundreds of Islamist militants stormed the military base with high-caliber weapons. A resident revealed that the invading insurgents also burnt down parts of the fishing town.

Nigeria Does Not Need 72-year-old Grandfather Like Buhari As President - Peter Obi


Mr Peter Obi, the immediate past governor of Anambra state, who is a honorary adviser to president Goodluck Jonathan said this in a recent interview with Vanguard.
 He also likened the possibility of the APC presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari ruling Nigeria to passing a pregnant camel through the eye of a needle.

"In a world where a life-changing protest for democratic change, demanding for free and fair democracy without Chinese interference, was led by a 17-year-old boy in Hong Kong, APC is threatening to inflict a 72-year-old grandfather on Nigeria as president. Do you realise that the major companies of the world like doogle (1998), Yahoo (1994), Ebay (1995), Facebook (2004) and Alibaba (1999), were all founded by people under 40 years of age. Most of the captains of industry in Nigeria today are led by men and women who were in not yet in primary school 31 years ago, when Buhari’s was Head of State".
He also said that Buhari did not have to wait until he becomes a president, before he save the country from Boko Haram.

Gen. Buhari, as a respected, retired general and as an elder statesman, does not need an invitation, an appointment or an elective office to intervene on any national issue, especially issues of national security like the one facing the country at the moment. Elder statesmen all over the world do not wait to be invited before they step forward on matters of grave concern to their fatherland".


Pastor Tunde Bakare Advices FG To Postpone February Elections To Avoid Bloodshed


The founder of Latter Rain Assembly and convener of the Save Nigeria Group(SNG), Pastor Tunde Bakare has called on the federal government to suspend 2015 general elections to forestall imminent bloodshed. He made this comment while delivering a sermon entitled: "A Gathering Storm and Avoidable Shipwreck: How to Avoid Catastrophic Euroclydon".

The cleric said that the general polls should be shifted to avoid loss of innocent lives to insurgency and prolonged legal battle.

He said that impending dangers are looming for the country, and the only way to avert them is urgently address some fundamental flaws.
"I must state that the proposal for suspension of elections is not with a view to giving the president an avenue for undue tenure elongation but for the purpose of building a coalition that will bring lasting solutions to our problems.
 I have clearly painted a picture of where we are, a disaster is ahead of us. If the northerner emerges as winner, whether he has won that election fair and square or not, people will allege rigging. If Jonathan wins the election, fair and square, they will allege that hie used his power of incumbency to rig the election,” Bakare said.

I do not say this to be controversial but to clear the dust; I see President Goodluck Jonathan as the man whom both God and Nigerians had great expectation of, but as for now, had failed. However, there is still time to redeem his dignity if his name is to go down in the book of history as the greatest president in African." 

 

How A Truck Crushed Family Of Four To Death In Ibadan Expressway


Four members of the same family– a father, mother and their two kids– have been crushed to death by a truck laden with bags of rice. They (The Bankoles) were traveling from Ogbomoso in Oyo State to Ibadan when the accident occurred around Odo Oba River on Christmas Eve.

An eyewitness, Okunola told Punch Newspapers, that the car in which the Bankoles were travelling was coming from Iwo and heading towards Ibadan, while the truck was coming from Ibadan.The eyewitness blamed the accident on the police checkpoint, saying if the road block was not there, the accident would have been avoided.

"The car in which the victims were travelling was coming from the opposite direction and after the police had checked him, he moved, but a trailer which was loaded with bags of rice lost control and fell on the car.The truck was on top speed. The driver saw a long queue of vehicles caused by the police checkpoint. The driver did not want to ram into the vehicles on the queue and veered off the lane. That was when the car was cleared to go.
The driver of the car saw the truck and drove into the bush. The truck driver, however, lost control and fell on the car.
 The driver of the car, his wife and two children, including a baby, were all dead by the time they were rescued from under the truck.”
 He added that the victims were trapped under the truck for close to five hours before their mangled bodies were removed by rescuers.A lady, who was said to have been given a freeride by the family, was said to have survived, but her hand was reportedly chopped while being pulled out from the wreckage.
Okunola however added that some chickens in the boot of the car survived the tragic accidentand flew out as soon as it was opened.

Stephanie Okereke Wants You To Know The Difference Between Best Before & Expiry Date


An article written by Nollywood actress, Stephanie Okereke-Linus. Since its educative, i decided to share.

Whenever you buy a packaged food item, it’s always advisable to note the date which the manufacturer/producer recommends it suitable for consumption.
On some food items, you might see an “Expiry Date” and on some others, you might see a “Best Before Date“. These dates are very important to note. But what we are discussing today is the difference. Do you really know the difference between these two dates?
I did some online search and came up with these definitions:
Best before date: Length of time which an item is suitable for sale. It is the recommended time which a product will remain good. This date is more of a guideline and it gives the recommended date by which the product is best consumed by. This is the date up to and including which the food can be expected to remain at peak quality if properly stored. Food may be edible after this date; however its quality may suffer, e.g. potato crisps might become soft.
Expiry date: Indicates that the product is no longer safe to consume after the specified date.
What’s the difference?
If food must not be consumed after a certain date for health and safety reasons, the ‘Expiration date’ mark must be used. Foods labeled ‘Expiration date’ cannot be sold after the date has expired. A ‘Best Before’ date would be used for shelf stable foods, dry goods such as biscuits and confectionery, frozen foods, most raw foods that will be cooked before being eaten (eg. meat, chicken, fish) or foods that will noticeably spoil before becoming a safety issue.
In some countries, food marked with a ‘Best Before’ date can still be sold after that date provided it is safe and suitable for consumption. Any storage conditions that are necessary to ensure that a food will retain its specific qualities for the period indicated by the date mark, must be declared on the label.
I hope this clarifies.
If you were to make a choice, would you prefer the use of ‘Expiry Date’ over ‘Best Before’ date to avoid any mistakes?
