Aftermath of Baga massacre: NORTHERN LEADERS ANGRY WITH FG

Security agencies are on red alert in six northern states following last weekend alleged killing of 185 civilians, including children and women in Baga, Kukawa Local Government Area of Borno State, during a bloody clash between Boko Haram insurgents and a combined team of soldiers attached to the Joint Task Force (JTF) and their counterparts from Niger Republic and Chad. In effect, more military personnel and arms have been moved to the affected areas.

Saturday Sun gathered that the nation’s security high command took the decision to put law enforcement agencies in Borno, Yobe, Kano, Kaduna, Gombe and Bauchi states on red alert following widespread local and international condemnation of the heavy civilian casualty recorded in the clash that claimed many lives. “Intelligence reports coming in indicate that the condemnations of the military action in Baga may serve as a moral booster to the Boko Haram terrorists to launch simultaneous and coordinated devastating attacks in the six identified states in the coming days.

12 killed in auto accident in Awka

NO fewer than 12 persons killed yesterday in the heart of Awka, Anambra State when a tanker carrying palm kernel oil lost its brakes and rammed into Bus Park on the foot of the pedestrian cross at the popular UNIZIK junction in the town. Several people who sustained various degrees of injuries were rushed to various hospitals in the Anambra State capital for treatment.

The tanker, which was coming from the Enugu end of the Enugu –Onitsha expressway, lost control as it was descending the UNIZIK slope and hit a bus loaded with passengers and then dragged the same bus into the very busy motor park where it damaged about seven other buses. Among those who either lost their lives or sustained injuries were drivers, motor park operators and recharge card sellers.

FRSC: In Case of Emergency Campaign

The Federal Road Safety Commission has just come out with the concept of “ICE”..Please read carefully, it may save your life or that of someone you know

"We all carry our mobile phones with names & numbers stored in its memory. If we were to be involved in an accident or were taken ill, the people attending us would have our mobile phone but wouldn't know who to call. Yes, there are hundreds of numbers stored but which one is the contact person in case of an emergency? Hence this 'ICE' (In Case of Emergency) Campaign.

"Fellow Nigerian Citizens,

On behalf of the patriotic and well-meaning peoples of the Middle Belt and the southern parts of this country, I , Major Gideon Orkar, wish to happily inform you of the successful ousting of the dictatorial, corrupt, drug baronish, evil man, deceitful, homo-sexually-centered, prodigalistic, un-patriotic administration of General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida. We have equally commenced their trials for unabated corruption, mismanagement of national economy, the murders of Dele Giwa, Major-General Mamman Vatsa, with other officers as there was no attempted coup but mere intentions that were yet to materialise and other human rights violations
