Bomb blast at Krystal Lounge, Abuja


A bomb went off at the popular Krystal Lounge in Abuja yesterday some mintues after 11pm and damaged about 6 cars including 2 SUVs. Luckily, no human life was lost.

Although there was speculation that the bomb planted on a tree close to the clob, there are confirmation that  the bomb was thrown from a moving vehicle by a man driving on the opposite lane. Night crawlers, please be more careful and club owners need to beef up security!


Meet the new NSA: Rtd. Col. Sambo Dasuki; a profile

Rtd. Col. Sambo Dasuki, new NSA

The new National Security Adviser, retired Col. Sambo Mohammed Dasuki, comes from the royal family of Sokoto: He is the son of the former Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Ahmed Dasuki, who was deposed by the military regime of the late Gen. Sani Abacha.
Believed to be close to former dictator Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, Abacha dismissed Dasuki and some military officers in 1993. Dasuki’s closeness to Babangida was said to have come about from the fact that he was once the dictator’s ADC, and he was actively involved in the 1985 coup that brought Babangida to power.
Dasuki later fled to the United States in 1995 after he was accused by the Abacha regime of being a party to a coup plot allegedly led by retired Col. Lawan Gwadabe.
On his return, former President Olusegun Obasanjo appointed him as the managing director of the National Security and Printing Company at the behest of Babangida.
A director of Regency Alliance, an insurance company, Dasuki attended the Washington DC and George Washington University, where he obtained a BA in International Relations and MA in Security Policy Studies respectively.
He had his military training in several institutions in Nigeria and abroad including the Nigerian Army School of Artillery, Oklahoma, U.S. Army Command and General Staff College, Ft. Leavenworth Kensas.
His major task is to arrest the Boko Haram insurgency, which is threatening to spread into other parts of the country, apart from the North.
He will also be expected to tackle militancy in the South-South, where Nigeria derives its main source of revenue.

Suspect inserts 66 wraps of narcotics in private part

Mande Bala
Law enforcement agents and travellers were last week astonished when 66 wraps of narcotics, which tested positive to methamphetamine, were discovered in the private part of Mande Bala, 48, at the screening section of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos on June 15, 2012.
The lady was promptly arrested by officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency shortly before she was due to board a Kenyan Airways flight to Nairobi.
The NDLEA Commander at the airport, Hamza Umar, confirmed the arrest. He said, “The quantity of drugs that Bala had inserted in her private part was so much that it affected her gait, drawing the attention of the NDLEA officials. No suspect has ever inserted such a large quantity of drugs in the country. Usually, cases of insertion are not more than 300g. The discovery was shocking.”

Rtd. Gen Azazi
According to Presidential Spokesman, Rueben Abati, The President this evening approved the sack of his National Security Advisor (NSA) General Patrick Owoeye Azazi and the Minister of Defence, Haliru Bello. The NSA has being replaced by Rt. Col Sambo Dasuki.

The President saw the light while in Brazil? He should travel more biko!

In civilized countries, when you are in charge of something as sensitive as security and people do not feel any sense of security because of the weekly bomb blasts by Boko haram, it is only natural that you resign because you have failed at your job. Since Nigerians do not take the cue to resign, na so so sack remain for them. GEJ should sack the next ones if they do not give us a sense of security SOON!
