Boko Haram Terrorists Abduct 22 Girls In Fresh Attack

Boko Haram terrorists have abducted 22 girls and women in
two separate raids. In the first attack on Thursday, the
jihadists raided the village of Pulka near border with
Cameroon where they kidnapped 18 girls.
‘Boko Haram fighters from Mamman Nur camp arrived in
pickup vans around 6am and seized 14 young girls aged 17
and below while residents fled into the bush,’ a Pulka
community leader told AFP.
‘They picked four other girls, who were fleeing the raid they
came across in the bush outside the village,’ said the
community leader who asked not to be named for fear of
reprisal.
According to the official, the attackers were loyal to the
faction headed by Abu Musab Al-Barnawi, the son of Boko
Haram founder Mohammed Yusuf.
Barnawi was appointed last year by the Islamic State group
to replace leader Abubakar Shekau, who had pledged
allegiance to the Middle East jihadist group in 2015.
Another resident confirmed the raid and said the girls were
likely to end up as brides for the fighters.
‘They didn’t harm anyone during the raid and they made no
attempt to shoot people running away from the village,’ said
the resident.

Jose Mourinho explains who his one-finger celebration was aimed at

Posted By
Jose Mourinho certainly didn’t hide his emotions after winning the Europa League with Manchester United. After his side triumphed over Ajax 2-0, the Portuguese boss celebrated wildly. Mourinho was seen embracing his son, whilst telling all of his players to hold up three fingers to signify their fairly underwhelming ‘treble’ of the Community Shield, EFL Cup and now the Europa League. But there was one action that nobody could quite understand. Immediately after the final whistle, Mourinho could be seen shaking his index finger rather passionately at the crowd. But what did it mean? Did he mean this was the first major trophy of his spell at United? Did it mean that he was still the Special One? Or was it a message to the victims of the Manchester attacks on Monday? Well, none of the above, actually. Mourinho has actually revealed exactly who his one-finger celebration was aimed at. Mourinho explains his celebration "It's for my family," Mourinho sa...

Awaiting the death and burial of recession

Posted By
Judging by how confident the governor of the Cen­tral Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Mr Godwin Emefiele was as he made the announcement, we can only but agree that, all things being equal – like econ­omists the world over always posit – Nigeria will be out of recession latest by the third quarter of this year. Accord­ing to his well-heeled argu­ment, there was nowhere else for the nation’s beleaguered economy to head on account of the abiding positive indica­tors but out of recession. Who indeed would doubt him with inflation trending down­wards, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) improving and foreign exchange going to the real sector as and when needed? What is more! This opti­mism is no less supported by the recent release of the na­tion’s economic position by the National Bureau of Statis­tics (NBS). According to the release, though the nation’s GDP con­tracted by 0.52 per cent in the 1st Quarter of 2017 repre­senting the fifth consecutive quarter of contraction since the first quarter...
