'We bombed the police headquarters in Abuja' - says Leader, Tishau
What is Boko Haram about?
Our aim
is to spread Islam all over Nigeria, that is our mission and I want
people to understand that our correct name is Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna
Lidda’awati wal-Jihad. Those calling our group Boko Haram do so to
discredit the group and it ideas. It was formed at three fundamental
levels.
The first level from which our group emerged was
from people in this country who, for selfish reasons, recruited young
people and sometimes children and sent them overseas for education. In
reality, these people are totally ignorant of the reasons why these big
men take them abroad. In the name of education, these young men are
taken to mostly Arab countries and turned into militants who respect
only those who sponsored them abroad. Those big men who sponsor these
youths don’t have any conscience and no love for this country.
It all started in 2004 when the Government of Mauritania fell. It
is similar to what is happening in Libya now, though slightly
different. When the government in Mauritania fell in 2004, some
individuals from that country came into Nigeria to recruit some youths
as mercenaries to join forces with them to overthrow the government in
power.
The second level of our membership is made up of
young men who were recruited by our late leader, Mohammed Yusuf. Yusuf
was approached by some people from Mauritania to recruit more Nigerians
to continue with the struggle in Mauritania. The grounds were that this
young people were being recruited to further their Islamic studies. They
were to serve as a support group to the Mauritanian army. But our
leader Mohammed Yusuf rejected the plan. But a number of Nigerian big
men who were involved in the Mauritania struggle were angry with Yusuf.
This led to a disagreement which pitched the young men loyal to Yusuf
against those backing the big men. Yusuf, however, insisted on genuine
Islam whereas those opposing him were mercenaries who were willing to
serve their master’s interest in Mauritania.
At what point did they leave perfect Islam and become violent?
Whatever
I am telling you now I have already made available to the SSS when they
arrested me. There was a misunderstanding within the group and this
disagreement was between those who received military training in
Mauritania and those who were loyal to Yusuf. The SSS infiltrated our
ranks and began to arrest many of those who were militants. However, as
they were arrested some big men moved in to ensure that the court
released them and they came back caused more problems within our group.
In
2009 the disagreement developed into a crisis in areas where our group
was spreading Islamic ideals. I was in charge of our operations in
Bauchi, Gombe and Plateau. The crisis was more in Bauchi State in two
locations and in Kano in one location. In Bauchi, a group began to lay
claim to a mosque that was built by our group. This caused a major
crisis again and a young girl was kidnapped in Bauchi and taken to Borno
State. Our group was fingered but we told one intelligence officer,
Bala, who was investigating the case that her relations took her to
Borno and if the issue was not handled well it could cause a crisis.
The SSS directed us to contact the Commissioner of Police in Borno State
to secure the girl’s release. We were still in the process when the
Bauchi State governor directed that members of our group should be
driven away from the state. That was how our people started to resist
the forced evacuation and the crisis with the government spread to Borno
State. In fact, the crisis began in Bauchi and not Borno.

FG recovers N5.6bn Abacha loot
The Federal Government has recovered £22.5m
(N5.6bn) of funds embezzled through Jersey bank accounts in the coast of
Normandy, France, during the regime of the late dictator, Gen. Sani
Abacha.
The Attorney General of the Federation, Mohammed
Bello Adoke, was said to have led a delegation to the Island last month
to negotiate the release of the funds, which were the proceeds of
corrupt vehicle deals between Abacha and Raj Arjandas Bhojwani, an
Indian businessman.
According to the Jersey Evening Post,
the cash was confiscated from Bhojwani, who is serving a six-year jail
sentence since 2010, for laundering $43.9m through his bank accounts in
the Jersey branch of the Bank of India.
Bhojwani was
ordered by Jersey’s Royal Court to repay £26.5m (N6.6bn) to Nigeria, as
part of the sentence, after his jail term was shortened from eight
years.
A statement released by the Royal Court said it
represented the end of a long investigation into serious money
laundering in Jersey.

Shocking! Ashton Kutcher Has a Twin Brother!!
A number of roles come to mind when you hear the name Ashton Kutcher:
"Punk'd" host, Demi Moore's husband and now, of course, Charlie Sheen's replacement on "Two and a Half Men."
Ashton's brother is named Michael Kutcher, and he lives in Iowa with his
7-year-old son. Michael also has cerebral palsy, which is not terribly
uncommon in twins.
Currently the lesser known brother actually lobby's
for Reaching for the Stars, an organization that helps children with
cerebral palsy.
He said, "Being Ashton Kutcher's brother, it gives me
the opportunity to be that voice, and I realize that I needed to use the
opportunity to help others."

Domestic Violence Awareness Walk: Murdered banker in mind
Hundreds of people took to the streets on
Wednesday to protest against the rise of domestic abuse in the country
with a particular reference to the case of a banker, Titilayo Arowolo,
who was allegedly killed by her husband, Akolade, on June 24, 2011.
The march, which took place in different parts of Lagos, was tagged ‘Domestic Violence Awareness Walk’ and organised by a group, Project Alert on Violence Against Women, in collaboration with the Gender-based Violence Response Network.
The group attributed the rise
in the cases of domestic violence to the unwillingness of the police to
act on complaints of victims of abuse.
Citing the case of
29-year-old Titilayo, the group said whenever domestic cases were
reported to the police, they never showed seriousness with such cases.

DSTV Office shut down over unpaid N150 million tax
On Tuesday, the head office of
Multi Choice, Nigeria, owners of DSTV Cable Television was shut down by the Lagos State Government over unrpaid
tax of about N150 million.
According to reports, the office was shut down by officials of the Lagos State
Internal Revenue Service (LIRS), after the organisation failed to remit
the money to the government.
Special Adviser to the Lagos state governor on Taxation and Revenue,
Bola Shodipo who confirmed the closure said that the action was carried
out to make the outfit fulfill its obligation to the government.
Mr Shodipo who expressed displeasure at the rampant indebtedness of
organisations in taxes said the practice was undermining the revenue
generation drive of the government.
He said the State Government would pursue companies who failed to
voluntarily honour the payment of their tax bills, to make them comply.
The Special Assistant, however, said that discussions were going on
between the government and officials of Multi Choice over the issue,
saying the government might consider early re-opening of the office if
the tax was remitted.

‘My Experience With ‘The Stalker’ For 6 Years’ – Omowunmi Akinnifesi
Funny but I am not laughing
His name is……..yep I know his name, his full name. I have heard it so
many times when I finally decide to pick up an unknown number after
dodging the calls that show his caller identification. Numbers I have
come to store on my phone over and over again. I have about six of his
numbers and for a while that saved me from speaking to him. Well that
was only until he got a new number off course.
It all started in 2005, after I won the Most Beautiful girl
in Nigeria Pageant. I granted an interview with a popular
newspaper in Nigeria where I was asked who my role model was at the time
and I mentioned Oprah Winfrey. Little did I know that
Oprah was going to get me into trouble?
My phone rang early January 2006 and it was the voice of a man,
possibly in his late 30s or early 40s. His voice was coarse and
suspicious. Innocently I said ‘Hello‘ and this marked the
beginning of the terror. ‘Am I speaking to Omowunmi
Akinnifesi?’ he asked. ‘Yes‘ I replied without a
hint of fear. ‘How are you?‘ He asked again. ‘I am fine
thank you. Whom am I speaking to?‘ I asked. ‘This is…… I admire
you and I think you are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. You
are charming and extremely sexy how can I meet you? I know you
like Oprah Winfrey. I can introduce you to her, she is a very good
friend‘ he said.
