There was a blast and the earth trembled— Abdulkabir Danlami Abdulkabir, 32, is a Panel Beater from Edo state. “I came to visit my friend who lives near the place. Unfortunately, he had gone out to supply some products to some people. While inside the house, I heard a lot of commotion outside. I heard, ‘lets kill him! Lets Kill him!’ I asked the mother of my friend what the noise was about. She said, “you are the only one still sitting here, all the men have gone out to hold aman who wanted to plant a bomb and kill us. So, I rushed out.

Boko Haram : ' Why We Attacked ThisDay Newspapers'

The Jama'atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda'awati Wal-Jihad, popularly known as Boko Haram, says it attacked THISDAY Thursday to send a strong message to the media that it would no longer condone reports misrepresenting it in the press, or blaming it for acts it knows nothing about. Abul Qaqa, spokesperson for the sect told Premium Times, in an exclusive interview, that his organisation was fed up with the deliberate misinformation being peddled about it in the Nigerian and foreign media. “We have repeatedly cautioned reporters and media houses to be professional and objective intheir reports. This is a war between us and the Government of Nigeria; unfortunately the media have not been objective andfair in their report of the ongoing war, they chose to take side,” Mr. Qaqa said. He identified three instances where he claimed his group was deliberately misrepresented by the media. The first, according to him, was the rumour of his capture by the Nigerian intelligence agencies. “Some reporter

D     Don Jazzy The text of the interview below via Hip Hop World : So the collaboration between D’Banj and Snoop Dogg, how do you feel being part of this landmark achievement because it is the first of its kind? Well, it’s not really first of its kind, we follow other people’s footsteps; it’s not like we just decided that we are going to do it. We have collaborations with other African artistes but they have not been released, they are supposed to be coming out. So maybe because of some reasons, we have not released them. God just placed us in a position where we met someone that could actually hook us with Snoop Dogg to have a collaboration and we did it.  But it’s not like we are the first to do it; Sound sultan had done it with Wyclef, Tuface had done it with Beenie Man, R Kelly/ Mary J Blige, The Pulse with Busta Rhymes. So it’s not like we are the first people that did it. We followed the line. Normally in Nigerian music industry, we usually used to wait for T
