Boko Haram Beheads 10 In Adamawa

Reports just reaching us indicate that Boko Haram has claimed the lives of 10 people in Adamawa state. According to a report by Daily Post, the suspected Boko Haram sect members slaughtered 10 people in Kwamda- Kobla village in the northern part of the state. Addressing newsmen, the chairman of Madagali local government area, Maina Ularamu, confirmed the incident, noting that the gunmen raided several villages in the area at the weekend. Ularamu revealed that the attackers embarked on the dastardly act by beheading their victims.

Adamawa state has been plagued with a series of Boko Haram attacks in recent times. Last week, a suicide ...

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDELA) stormed his Lagos apartment Monday morning, May 25, to convey him. Senator-elect is insisting that the officials didn’t have a warrant of arrest in line with the extradition pact, which they should produce to him. Austin Oniyokor, Kashamu’s personal aide, sends a note to reporters which says: “It has just come to limelight that the NDLEA did not obtain a warrant of arrest from the court as required by the extradition treaty. “Kashamu’s lawyer, Barrister Ajibola Oluyede requested from them the court we are going to only to be told that they are just going to file the papers as no court has been assigned the case or has ordered his arrest”. However, many of his supporters protested his extradiction near the court in carrying placards with different captions. Some of them says: “Leave Kashamu alone”, “We voted for him, he is...
