Nigeria president compares unrest in nation to Syrian civil war and wonders about ‘end times’
Nigeria’s president has compared the violence by an Islamist
extremist sect in his West African nation to the ongoing civil war in
Syria.
President Goodluck Jonathan made the comments Sunday before a church in Nigeria’s capital, Abuja.
Jonathan said the sect known as Boko Haram “is taking over Abuja (and wants) for me and those working in government to run and hide somewhere else.”
Jonathan also told worshippers at the church that the violence around the world made him wonder if this is a “way of telling us that the end times are so close.”
According to an Associated Press count, Boko Haram has killed more than 780 people this year alone in Nigeria. The killings continue despite soldiers and police flooding the nation’s north.

Boko Haram Suspects Kill 15 Christians By Slitting Their Throats In Borno
Suspected Boko Haram members on Sunday killed 15 Christians by slitting their throats in Chibok, Borno state.
According to Mohammed Kana, a regional official for the National Emergency Management Agency, gunmen entered a church in Chibok and killed at least 15 worshipers.
“Some of the people had their throats slit,” Kana said, citing NEMA staff who responded to the scene.
According to a relief officer, the attackers killed the victims in their homes.
“From the information we gathered, the attackers broke into selected homes and slaughtered 15 people in their sleep,” the relief official said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak publicly.
Nigerian authorities tend to under-report death tolls however, and the relief official’s information matched up with that of residents, who spoke of 15 people having their throats slit.
Speaking of the victims, the relief official said “they included one traffic warden and 14 civilians. The victims were selected because they were all Christians, some of whom had moved into the neighbourhood from other parts of the city hit by Boko Haram attacks.”
Residents said they suspected the attackers were from Boko Haram.
“The attackers came in and silently went into homes whose residents were all Christians and slit the throats of their victims. They killed 15 people,” one resident said.
Sunday’s violence comes six days after attackers raided two churches during Christmas Eve services, killing 12 people.

Participants Flay Calabar Festival’s Nude Show ... LEADERSHIP NEWSPAPERS
Participants Flay Calabar Festival’s Nude Show
Some spectators at the grand finale of the carnival, held on December 27, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that they were dismayed by the nude display by ladies during the event.
A US-based Nigerian, Mr Ikpafak Udofia, expressed displeasure at the costumes and the dress code of the girls on parade, asking ``is it modernisation or madness? I love my culture and I love my people but such nudity in the name of cultural exposition or whatever they called it is ridiculous.
``For women to walk on the streets almost naked in the name of carnival, is dishonourable to me, to my mother and wife and I wonder what the designers of those costumes were thinking,’’ he said.
Another US-based Nigerian Miss Gloria Ekong, however, called for caution in condemning the carnival attires. Ekong said: ``whether these girls have a secret agenda or not; their intention is to have fun with creative costumes. Trust me they don’t have to be in that attire to carry out their `secret agenda’. ``I personally wish that l have a killer body like that. We can be too judgmental under the guise of religion.’’ Another Nigerian in the Diaspora, Mrs Rosie Udo, said that there was nothing untoward in the appearance of the maidens’ attires. `` If these were men with extended belly, skinning legs, flat butt with skimpy wrappers, will that be honourable? Today’s African men are so disgusted with women and their bodies.”
Another Nigerian, Mr Chris Udoh, based in Port Harcourt said: `` as a man, I will not lose sleep if a woman decides on her own to walk naked in the streets. It is a good saving for a man because what he would have paid money or begged to view is given out by the owner free-of-charge. Walking naked is part of ‘uncommon transformation’ of the African women to their ancestral days when men used to live in caves.
``The truth is that African women who walk naked on the streets are cheapening their natural worth and beauties. Though it can buy short term attention but what happens thereafter becomes a burden to the seller only,’’ he said.
LEADERSHIP NEWSPAPERS
PRESS STATEMENT BY C.A.N PRESIDENT, PST AYO ORITSEJAFOR RESPONDING TO SEN BUKAR ABBA IBRAHIM ON BOKO HARAM.
PRESS STATEMENT BY C.A.N PRESIDENT, PST AYO ORITSEJAFOR RESPONDING TO SEN BUKAR ABBA IBRAHIM ON BOKO HARAM.
The President of CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, notes with concern, the statement credited to Senator Bukar Abba Ibrahim, who was twice governor of Yobe State, that government must dialogue with the Boko Haram sect, while also insisting that the reason for the action of the sect is inequality, neglect and injustice.
“Pastor Oritsejafor believes that the statement by the Senator that ‘we can find a way really to help dialogue with this group; after all, they are all Nigerians at least as far as we know…’ is overly reckless, irresponsible and insensitive, just as it is a panacea for encouraging the increasingly violent and daring sect.
“In the first place, he says, it is naïve for Senator Ibrahim to reason that if the Federal Government dialogue with Boko Haram, the sect would limit itself to concessions made when they have stated, clearly, that their aim is to do away with western education and enthrone the Islamic law of Sharia’ah.
“The President of CAN advises Ibrahim not to panic into making recommendations that are short-sighted and that as a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, he should not take counsel from only a section of a state or region.
“He expects Senator Ibrahim to help put the sect in strict subjection to the laws of the land, rather than treading the dangerous path of dialogue, which has always been truncated by harsh conditions from the sect members,” the statement read.
The CAN president said as two times governor of Yobe state, the likes of Ibrahim should be held responsible for the poverty ravaging the North and indeed the country today.
“If today, the people are fighting biting poverty, inequality and injustice as Senator Ibrahim would want us to believe, it is his likes that should be held responsible for being the sources of their poverty.
“In that case, Boko Haram’s anger should have been directed at leaders like Senator Abba Bukar Ibrahim who have not allowed their members to take full advantages of the vast economic opportunities that exist in Northern Nigeria”,
