Boko Haram Strikes Kano Again
Islamist militants of the Jama’atu Ahli Sunna lid Da’awati wal Jihad, known as Boko Haram this evening struck in the city of Kano.
The deadly sect struck around Sharada area of Kano in a daring daylight attack on a police station. Residents said gunfight between sect members and soldiers continued till early evening. The situation created panic as residents ran for safety.
There was no reports of casualties. Government officials stated that the 6am-6pm curfew is still in force in the state, the curfew was imposed following several bomb explosions that rocked the state late January.
Sources within the sect said they are going through significant rift in Kano following the sweeping attacks that killed some 200 people, most of whom are Muslims.
The situation has led to the formation of a splinter sect out of Boko Haram known as “Ansaru”.
Similarly, security has been beefed up in Kaduna State in other to avoid another attack from the sect, whose members’ security agencies are trailing in the city following arrest of Qaqa in Kaduna.
Mr. Qaqa is currently undergoing interrogation in the custody of the Nigerian authorities. He reportedly revealed today that most members are tired of fighting but are mortally afraid of the sect leader, Imam Shekau, who frequently orders assasination of disloyal members in front of their families as means of maintaining control over Boko Haram members.
UPDATES: Soldiers in Kano are now exchanging fire with some suspected Boko Haram militants in an area called Ungwan Mariri. Militants earlier stormed Sharada
Police station in Kano with explosives.
islam
i am a musleem, Alhamdulillah. If you kill all the musleems in this world you cant kill the God that creat you and remember He is always watching us. Boko haram is a terrorist group that are created by the non musleems to stop other innocent non musleems from undertanting islam. And this people think they are on a mission and they called them self missionaries so if you want to kill all the mosleems like me try to join thier secret mission. God is watching us and may He protect our country and all the people in it.
The wicked will never go unpunished
The average Nigerians need peace. The so called evil leaders who have amassed wealth are our problem. Instead of them using their ill gotten wealth to develop Nigeria and create jobs for our teaming youths who have no jobs they decided to use their loot to create violence - they will never go unpunished. Let hands join with hands, tne wicked will never go unpunished. God or Allah is watching them. He has prolonged their lives to give them room to repent. His mercy endures for ever so also his wrath. They should sheath their sword because he that kills with the sword will die with the sword.
Major Gideon Okar - Why we struck
How many more lives have been lost to the Hausa-Fulani butchery since our execution in 1990? Obviously they run into their tens of thousands. We knew this would happen and that was what we wanted to prevent. Because of the possibility of failure we wanted to leave the message which some termed unacceptable and others, premature.
Nigerians can be forgiven for failure to understand the necessity of excising those states in 1990. But now, how many millions of lives, how much destruction of property, infrastructure and places of worship will it take to convince skeptics that excision is the only way to stop it.
We, that laid down our lives to save you:
Major Gideon Orkar, Captain N.H. Empere, Captain P.A.Dakolo, Capt AA Nonju, Lt. AE Akogun, Lt. CN Odey, Lt. Cyril Ozualor, Lt. NEO Deji, 2/Lt AB Umukoro, 2/Lt EJ Ejesuku, SSgt Julius Itua, Sgt Martins Ademokhai, Sgt. Pius Ilegar and over a hundred others
the problem we are facing today
well to my own what i see in this boko haram issue is the government of nigeria some group came out and rock the economy of this country down and terrorize the government and was giving amnesty then boko haram came again with bombing why is the government not want to give them amnesty for peace to rain too. what you give to mr (A) is to be giving to mr (B) nigeria government must finish what they started.

Most of the people who
Most of the people who respond are jobless and half-educated people. They also represent a narrow insignificant population. There are almost 20 million people in Lagos. What is a population of 100 respondents? Most enlightened southerners know the truth but are angry that the northern elites like you seem to tolerate these people. It was only when they started killing moslems that you reacted. And some of us have lost loved ones.
You are just being stupid to
You are just being stupid to have written that about all southerners. Yes, Northerneres are the headache of this country.
@DERI
ARE NIGERIAN CHRISTIANS THE SAME WITH THOSE IN THE REST WORLD? THE ANSWER IS NO. NOW CHECK THIS LINK: www.newsrescue.com AND SEE HOW DIFFERENT YOU DEVILS ARE TO THE REST OF MANKIND.
Lets cal 4 unity
Am a muslim, my identity is Islam nd i nd ol responsible muslims ar against dis boko haram sect. I want 2 use dis oppurtunity 2 mke it known 2 d world dat BH sect ar only using d name of Islam 2 cause dispute in dis blessed country of ours. Just as we cant cal ol christains in d niger delta as 'NIGER DELTA MILITANTS' . I think it is unjustice 2 cal Hausa/Fulani or Northerners as BH or affitionadoes of BH. It has been discovered dat majority of dos killed in kano on jan,20 nd up 2 date ar muslims. Pls my contri pple i think using dis media 2 insult ourselves wil nt solve dis problem, rather we shul pray 4 peace nd unity in dis contri. May Allah bless us ol. One luv Nigerians.
SOUTHERNERS ARE MYOPIC
Whenever I Visited Sahara Website and read a story and Comment of the readers from Southern Nigeria its suppressed me that these people that are highly educate but they behave like Animals. Because only an Animal will be saying stupid things they are saying, I realized they did not research or investigate on National issues, they lack foresight and they are idiots.
The Killing Fields of Nigeria, Solution: SNC !!!
@ Deri : Keep living in your world of lies. You claim the bokomaniacs have support in the military unlike your slimy militants, why was the inept Azazi disgraced out of the military? Was he not gun-running with that psychopath Henry Okah? You call the blow-up of UN House and police HQ "jelly like acts", but the carnage resulted in mulitple deaths! Since Dumbo's latest empty boast to "crush" the bad guys, how many innocent lives have the bokos crushed while he's busy meddling in local politics? It is this misplacement of priorities that is pissing me the heck off. Nigerians are dying like flies and the fool is constantly doing the opposite thing, shifting the buck, and crying that people are against the aborigines. Nigerians are frustrated. Tired. Hungry and desperate for decisive leadership! That's why I've called severally for the security of 9ja lives to be ceded to the UN. Dumbo has turned Nigeria into the Killing Fields. A shame!
saad Ibrahim aka wahala
Saad Ibrahim, how can u reason that way-that no terrorist group has ever produced suicide bombers in 9ja? Most of these people including boko haram and MEND often embark on suicide missions daily. They even pray to the heavenly bodies to help them carry out their evil acts against humanity. Again I am not shocked to see boko haram embark on suicide missions. That is simply because their religion preaches and adores such ungodly acts. Boko haram are actually jellies. And when jellies are confronted, they scamper into their religious holes. Go read the confession of their socalled spokes man. He said one of the weapons their leaders often uses, is to throw fear into them! The man who is planting bombs as if they are stones, knows that the end result is death. So has no choice. I have lived among Moslems for a better part of my life. Both in the middle east and africa-the kind of moslems we have in 9ja are the almajiri type from niger repoublic, chad and mali and u know what? they stink!

BREAKAWAY
Having read all this then I know that we Nigerians are full of hatred for our fellow brothers based on religious and ethnic sentiments. I see Nigeria heading for destruction. I am a muslim and 4rm Arewa and I c comments like kill all muslims and have a safer world. Parasitic North etc. I just wish we the people of arewa wld our heads 2gether and continue with agric and explore the oil discovered in the Benue trough and chad Basin. People 4got that d resources of Arewa was used for oil exploration of d 9ja Delta. The ppl of Niger Delta hv been wanting 2 break away 4rm 9ja, how r we sure they r also not part of BH. Attack ppl and make us bliv we don't love peace. For all those calling 4 separation, remember 1 troubled nation can only give birth to two and 9ja Deltan cannot survive on oil alone. Abi u dey drink oil survive. Let's imagine we breakway, there will still b prob in 9ja Delta, y ? Because we humans r greedy and war on superiority and control of resources will start.
This is not Nigeria I know
God Help Nigeria... Govt take BOLD a step
@ibrahim saad
"TELL ME WHICH MOVEMENT OR TERRORIST GROUP HAS EVER TAKEN ON THE FEDERAL GOVT WITH THE FEARLESSNESS OF BOKO HARAM. NO MOVEMENT HAS EVER PRODUCED A SUICIDE ATTACKER."
And thats something to be proud of?! What about the the everyday people killed?! I always knew that you and your boko brothers have twisted heads and minds. Just shut the fuck up!
Killer vs Cannibal
I believe the killers of Kano are trying to emulate the christian youth cannibals of Jos who kill innocent worshipers and eat their flesh. Well, they have not started eating any flesh yet. Visit http://zainabusman.wordpress.com/2012/02/04/video-of-the-cannibalization...
Such a prayer can only go to
Such a prayer can only go to the devil and not almighty God. For a murderer to escape from detention, etc

why are we not celebrating maulud in kano state
The 6-6 curfew in kano metropolitan area is stopping muslims all over the area from celebrating the eid_el-maulud. Y is this happening in kano.
DERI
I WANT THE ATTACK TO STOP, PERIOD. I DONT CARE WHAT YOU OR THE GOVT CALL BOKO HARAM OR PROMISE US. LET THE ATTACKS STOP, LET NIGERIANS BE SECURE IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK? WE DONT WANT ROADS, WE DONT WANT ELECTRICITY OR JOBS OR WATER OR TRANSPORTATION. WE WANT TO GO OUT INTO THE GODFORSAKEN CITIES AND TOWNS OF NIGERIA WITH THE CONFIDENCE THAT THE ONLY THINK THAT MAY KILL US ARE THE KIDNAPPERS, THE ARMED ROBBERS, THE OCCASIONAL ACCIDENTS IN THE DEATHTRAPS WE CALL ROADS AND THE DRUNKEN POLICEMAN WE REFUSE TO GIVE N20.
IF YOU THINK BOKO HARAM ARE JELLY THEN LOOK THROUGH HISTORY AND TELL ME WHICH MOVEMENT OR TERRORIST GROUP HAS EVER TAKEN ON THE FEDERAL GOVT WITH THE FEARLESSNESS OF BOKO HARAM. NO MOVEMENT HAS EVER PRODUCED A SUICIDE ATTACKER.
saad ibrahim are u attempting to test the waters
If that is the case although I have said he should be shown to us on TV, why did the socalled boko haram promise to kill those who betrayed him to the law enforcement agents? At least you posted the story about their threat here with the aid of Tundemess, wahala and co. Security agents are not angels. The have a real task ahead of them. Its not like the militants in the niger delta-who do not have backers within the armed forces and police. These criminals have infiltrated every arm of government and the traditional institutions. Again BH have indirectly admitted that the security agents have the said man in their custody. Given the level of their threat-but we shall defeat them-they are fear mongers-their jelly like acts are designed to scare people away from GEJ with the help of your likes. That is their objective. But very soon they will have no country to call their own in chad, mali and niger republic-not to talk of nigeria
honey moon with our oil in the niger delta is over
When Awo preached the sermon acording to the bottom medium, we laughed and said it was not possible. Now we are here blaming GEJ except our 51yrs old freedom. Time for us to wake up and stop pretending before another field marshal dan fulani and baba idris maro arrange their marshal music to have another dele giwa, kudirat abiola, bola ige, kensarowiwa and MKO assassinated again. They want Jos to be like Kwara state-a conquered zone
Praise be Thy Name Almighty
Praise be Thy Name Almighty God. May Your Divine Justice be done in Northern Nigeria, Western Nigeria and Ijaw land for their genocide against Igbo children. May Mullah Abu Qaqa escape from detention and cause more havoc in Arewa and Yoruba lands. May the Ijaws continue to betray the corrupt politicians and the federal troops around them. May Baal protect Mullah Sekau so that he can split Nigeria for us. All say Amen.
AND THE ATTACKS CONTINUE
THEY HAVE ABU QAQA, THE B/H SPOKESMAN. THE B/H HAS SPLIT INTO TWO THEY SAY, THEIR MEMBERS DONT WANT TO FIGHT. YET THE ATTACKS CONTINUE UNABATED.
A COMPETENT SECURITY SERVICE NOT OUT FOR MISCHIEF OR GIVE THE PUBLIC A FALSE SENSE OF CONFIDENCE WILL NOT ANNOUNCE THAT THEY GOT A MAJOR TARGET LIKE ABU QAQA UNTIL THEY MAKE ALL IMPORTANT ARRESTS. SO FAR NO ARREST. EVEN AFTER THEY MAKE THE PREMATURE ANNOUNCEMENT THEY STILL DID NOT SHOW THE PEOPLE QAQA'S MUGSHOT FOR CONFIRMATION AND RECOGNITION.
IT IS CLEAR THE GOVT IS LOST ON HOW TO DEAL WITH THE ISSUE AND AS ALWAYS THEY ARE TRYING TO MAKE A BAD SITUATION WORST.
THEY CAN RUNAWAY FROM NEGOTIATION BUT THEY CANNOT HIDE. I DONT WANT TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BELIEVING IN THE LIES SPEWING OUT FROM THE GOVT, BUT AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED I WILL BELIEVE THEM WHEN THE ATTACK STOP.
