Boko Haram  attack on St Theresa  Catholic Church, Abuja


Irked by the increasing state of insecurity in some parts of the North as a result of the activities of Boko Haram, about  150 Igbos resident in Maiduguri, Borno State Thursday fled the town as they were evacuated back home.
The returnees arrived the 9th Mile Corner, Enugu at the early hours of Thursday, through the free luxury buses provided by IgboVille,  a social network of Igbo professional at home and in Diaspora.
Meanwhile, the General Officer Commanding (GOC), 3 Armored Division, Jos, Major General Adamu Buba Marwa, has warned Boko Haram members to steer clear off North-east states or face the full wrath of the Nigerian Army.
In a statement signed by the division’s Assistant Director Army Public Relations, Lt. Col. Andrew Idachaba, in Jos Thursday, the GOC gave the warning on resumption of operation in Gombe State recently.
