The law enforcements authority knows exactly who to hold responsible for the attack. Those who blame him for their election defeat during the last governorship election. I know they will be the first to visit Jonathan with straight face.

BREAKING: Buhari orders release of Dasuki, SoworeMr Dasuki, a former National Security Adviser, has been held for about four years despite several orders that he should be released on bail. Western pressure at work. So sad that the CorruptNigPlc corporate govt cartel must be badgered before doing the right thing. Tell Sowore to please come home to his family for Christmas and leave the jungle alone...don't be a hero. Too late. The damage has been done. The image of MBuhari tyrannical regime remains irredeemable. When a govt is senseless, it thinks from the anus. Why trying to release them now that the govt is soon to face sanctions? Why must it wait for the int'l community to instruct it?
