The fear of MOJAO is the beginning of wisdom.

Currently, two terrorist groups exist in Nigeria — Boko Haram and Jama’atu Ansarul Muslimina fi Biladis Sudan. Well, another terror group is silently creeping into the country , Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa,  MOJAO Reports shows that there are fears in security circles that MOJAO may infiltrate the country due to the porous nature of Nigeria’s borders. Minister of Interior, Mr. Abba Moro, had last week said there were 1,497 illegal routes into the country. MOJAO, a splinter group of the international terror group, al-Qaeda, is after military operatives and facilities of countries that are complementing France’s efforts in quelling terrorists’ insurgency in Mali. Besides Niger, Nigeria, Chad and Bukina Faso are involved in military operations in Mali. On Thursday, the Jihadist group claimed responsibility for a twin suicide bombing attack at the Nigerian/Nigerien border. No fewer than 26, mostly Nigerien soldiers, were killed and about 30 injure...

Two bald eagles in air battle crash-land at airport

There was a crash landing Sunday at the Duluth International Airport in Minnesota , but it didn't involve airplanes. Rather, it was two bald eagles, which were fighting in midair when they locked talons. In a rare spectacle of nature, they were unable to disengage in time before crashing to the runway. “Apparently, mature eagles will sometimes fight over territories “They will do battle in the air, crashing into each other and grabbing an intruding eagle with their talons. Usually, they will let go of each other before hitting the ground, but in this case, they had the talons so deeply embedded in each other they may have been unable to let go.   “Surprisingly, the two eagles were remarkably calm as I grabbed them both and loaded them into the back of my truck,” Hanzal said. “I think they were still more intent on winning the battle than any concern for me.”

$1 million in Chopard jewel stolen from Cannes hotel.

Jewels worth more than $1 million were stolen from a hotel in Cannes, France, police in the nearby city of Nice said Friday. The theft of the jewels, from the Swiss firm Chopard, came Thursday night, on the second day of the renowned Cannes Film Festival, which opened Wednesday.  The annual Cannes festival brings together the rich and famous from around the world for movie screenings and glittering parties. Commandant Bernard, of the Nice police, said the jewelry was stolen from a safe in the Suite Novotel hotel on Boulevard Carnot in Cannes. A Chopard employee was staying in the room but left it to go to dinner from 8 p.m. to 3 a.m. local time, he said. She returned to discover the safe containing the jewels was missing. The whole safe had been unscrewed from the inside of the hotel room and carried out, Mascarelli said. Police are now scouring security camera footage from the streets around the hotel and citywide for clues, he said. No detailed description has yet ...

Soludo to el-Rufai: You are an intellectual fraudster!

Soludo to el-Rufai: You are an intellectual fraudster! He doesnt say much, but former CBN governor, Charles Soludo seems to be a man gifted with many parts aside intellectual prowess. He in recent time has shown repeatedly that his tongue could also spit venom  fire if he chooses to unleash it. Former FCT minister, Nasir el-Rufai is the latest recipient of his 'side gift' as he takes exception to certain parts of book- The Accidental Public Servant, written by el-Rufai. The book is an intellectual fraud, Soludo screams! Scruples With el-Rufai's Book His stated objective was to "tell the story of my public service years..." but it turned out a very bad example of how to write a memoir. It is more of wild concoctions and commentaries on imagined events outside of his "public service years". As I read parts of the book that relate to things that I should know about, I shook my head in disbelief. I could not believe that el-Rufai could des...

Bill Gates retakes World’s Richest Title from Carlos Slim

Bill Gates became the world's richest person today, the first time he has held the title since 2007. His fortune was valued at $72.7 billion at 4 p.m. in New York, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. Gates, 57, was more than $550 million ahead of Carlos Slim, who has a $72.1 billion net worth. The co-founder of Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) has seen his fortune climb about $10 billion this year. The software maker's shares hit a five-year high today, and have advanced 28 percent year-to-date.   Slim's fortune has dropped more than $2 billion this year as Mexico's Congress passed a bill to quash the market dominance of the 73-year-old billionaire's America Movil SAB. "When they're talking about reform in a country that's generally poor, and the guy shows up No. 1 on the list — not a good thing," said Greg Lesko, managing director at New York-based Deltec Asset Management LLC, which oversees $750 million a...

CB's 24th Birthday gig. Tell me what you you think about the Cake

Well, as for me i don't need to believe in such a society like Illuminati before accepting the fact that it exist and many youths are clearly embracing  the body. One of a clear example is Chris Brown which is obvious with his birthday cake. Let me give you a little snip-it of the Secret Organisation: The Illuminati is the secret society responsible for the development of the cultural operating system behind every decisions, big or small, you have ever made in your entire life.  A select, yet growing group of massively successful entrepreneurs, musicians, actors and other high-ranking social placeholders make up the Illuminati. The Illuminati takes away the freedom of the individual to define their own place in the world without being subject to mass mind-control by defining the news we are exposed to, the music we listen to (which is often packed with subliminal messaging) and the products we purchase, the chemicals in the water we drink and more.  ...

Facts about Boko Haram

This terrorist group jumped to the forefront of the battle against Islamist terrorists in North Africa, when it kidnapped a French family from Cameroon. But who is this group? How did it start? And what role did Nigeria’s faction fighting have in its emergence? Here are 10 facts about Boko Haram. Who is Boko Haram? Boko Haram is the name of a large Islamist group fighting in northern Nigeria. Its aim is to establish an independent Islamic state under Sharia law. But this is only partially accurate. The group’s proper name is Jamā'atu Ahlis Sunnah Lādda'awatih wal-Jihad (People Committed to the Propagation of the Prophet's Teachings and Jihad). ‘Boko Haram’ was a dismissive name given by neighbours of the sect in its early years and means “Western Education Is Forbidden” in the Hausa language; alluding to the group’s hard-line belief that Western ideas, particularly from British colonialism, have turned Muslims away from the virtues of Islam How Boko ...

Blackberry services could be at risk of being banned in the country

Blackberry services could be at risk of being banned in the country as a new regulation by the Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, will run counter to the technical operating standards of the phone’s distinct network. National Mirror exclusively gathered that the telecoms regulator was working on a regulation, which would make it mandatory for any licensee in the nation’s telecoms market to provide access to its communications facilities for necessary interception by the law enforcement agencies. To be called ‘Lawful interception of communications regulations”, the regulation, which is currently at the draft stage, is based on the need to provide a legal and regulatory framework for the lawful interception of communications in Nigeria and the collection and disclosure of intercepted communication. It will also specify the nature and types of communications to be intercepted; prescribe penalties for noncompliance with the regulations; provide a notification to the commission of...
