In Port Harcourt on Wednesday, Nigerians protested the government’s failure to rescue the abducted Chibok schoolgirls (EpA).
Signs in English with a misspelling to boot?
This whole thing is really starting to look like a staged and scripted hoax, folks.
"Islamist militant attack in Nigeria kills hundreds" by Michelle Faul and Andrew Meldrum | Associated Press May 08, 2014
LAGOS, Nigeria — Islamist militants who have triggered international outrage over the kidnapping of more than 270 Nigerian schoolgirls opened fire on a busy marketplace, killing hundreds of people in a new spasm of violence in the country’s northeast.
How does that win over people?
The attack escalates Nigeria’s growing crisis from a campaign of bombings, massacres, and abductions being waged by the Boko Haram terrorist network, which is campaigning to impose an Islamic state on Africa’s most populous nation.
Hmmmmmmmm!
Stink!
As many as 300 people were killed in the assault late Monday on the town of Gamboru Ngala on Nigeria’s border with Cameroon.
The extremists opened fire on a marketplace bustling with shoppers taking advantage of the cooler nighttime temperatures in the semi-desert region, then rampaged through the town for 12 hours, setting houses ablaze and shooting those who tried to escape.
The attack and hundreds of casualties were confirmed by Borno state information commissioner Mohammed Bulama on Wednesday.
Nigerian federal Senator Ahmed Zannah blamed fighters of the Boko Haram terrorist network that has claimed responsibility for the April 15 kidnapping of 276 teenage girls from their boarding school in Chibok, in northeastern Borno state.
The insurgents threatened to sell the young women into slavery in a video.
I thought it was into marriage, unless you are saying....
Outrage over the missing girls and the government’s failure to rescue them brought angry Nigerian protesters into the streets this week in an embarrassment for the government of President Goodluck Jonathan.
Jonathan had hoped to showcase the country’s emergence as Africa’s largest economy as it hosted the Africa meeting of the World Economic Forum, the continent’s version of Davos.
See: Wrapping Up the W.E.F.
Time to wrap up this piece of propaganda.
Offers of international assistance have poured in, with the Obama administration announcing Tuesday it was sending personnel and equipment to help Nigerian security forces in their search for the girls in the vast Sambisa Forest.
The parents (if they exist at all) know where they are, but government can't find them?
Jonathan confirmed that he has accepted the American assistance, which the Pentagon said Wednesday will help with communications, logistics, and intelligence planning, but will not include any military operations.
We are told no military operations because the pre$$ and political cla$$ know the American people don't want another war, any war, anywhere, no matter what the sales pitch or what happens -- even Chicago goes up in a false-flag of a mushroom cloud
Britain and China announced Wednesday that Nigeria has accepted their offers of help, and France said it was sending in a ‘‘specialized team’’ to help with search and rescue of the girls.
That is what got this whole thing started.
‘‘In the face of such an appalling act, France, like other democratic nations, must react,’’ French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said. ‘‘This crime will not go unpunished.’’
Just wondering if the girls were in burqas or veiled.
Fabius gave no details, except to say the team was being drawn from forces already in the region. France has soldiers in Niger, Cameroon, and Mali, where it is fighting Islamist insurgents, as well as in Central African Republic.

Seems to happen when the French are around.
The kidnapping has ignited a viral social media campaign under the hashtag #BringBackOurGirls that has brought renewed attention to Boko Haram’s campaign of violence. On Wednesday, Michelle Obama joined in, tweeting, ‘‘Our prayers are with the missing Nigerian girls and their families. It’s time to #BringBackOurGirls.’’
Oh, this is REALLY BEGINNING to smell like a RANK ROT piece of FICTION, folks!
Boko Haram’s 5-year-old Islamist uprising has claimed the lives of thousands of Muslims and Christians, including more than 1,500 people killed in attacks so far this year.
Then how can they really have any support? Who is funding them, if they even exist?
The group, whose name means ‘‘Western education is sinful,’’ has tried to root out Western influence by targeting schools, as well as attacking churches, mosques, government buildings, and security forces in the country of 170 million, divided between a predominantly Christian south and Muslim north.
The homegrown terror group was largely contained to the northern part of Nigeria before expanding its reach with the help of Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb.
Oooooooh.
Being "helped" by Al-CIA-Duh, 'eh?
Say no more.
The group is the terrorist network’s affiliate in West Africa, which took in Boko Haram fighters for training in its camps in southern Somalia, beginning in 2010.
Is that where the training school is?

Grooming Nigeria For Invasion
It does look my instincts may well have been correct.
"For the children... again
"I abducted your girls."
"Allahu akbar!" "By Allah, I will sell them in the marketplace.”
Islamic (insert laugh track) Nigerian, Shekau, of the Boko Haram (ryhmes with Procol Harum) group looks to be a good diversion from the Ukrainian events. I don't know but the Nigerian military and police may be involved in this too. It's a multifaceted staged event.
As Greg mentioned at Pez's place.....
As an added plus, the plunder of Nigerian resources is only in its early stages and the neocon/neolib plans need to move right along.When the sick and twisted brutalities of that Odessa fire started hitting the Net, all of sudden some 'al CIA Duh' offshoot in Nigeria kidnaps over 200 girls.
So the American MSM swings into action, focusing on that part of the world.
Not trying to be cynical here, but over the past few decades, the multinational oil companies, along with the corrupted Nigerien government, have been kidnapping, torturing, murdering and stealing a tremendous amount of wealth from the native Nigerians, but for some reason, the majority of the US media looked the other way.
I saw this statement and it sums it up.....
The former Abia State Governor, Dr. Uzor Kalu, has called on the {Nigerian} Federal Government to collaborate with Mosad, Israeli secret agency, and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of United States.Collaborate with devils and surely there will be hell for someone to pay....
****************
There are many in Nigeria who think the kidnappings are fake.

And what is this about Nigeria making deals with China before the ceremonies?
NEXT DAY UPDATE:
Story relegated to page B12 of all places, meaning the propaganda is failing as this false flag is looking like nothing more than another staged and scripted hoax like so many others they have become too numerous to count these days. Nothing you see on TV or read in the papers is true. Sometimes it is distorted a little, sometimes a lot, and sometimes it is a completely created fiction.
"Nigerians in Boston rally to demand girls’ safe return" by Travis Andersen | Globe Staff May 08, 2014
Demonstrator, Iyabo Obasanjo, a former senator in Nigeria, said, “I think it has to be seen as an international security threat,” adding that the antigovernment, anti-Western group has discouraged people from getting vaccinated for polio and killed providers who have offered the vaccine.
I will be getting around to a polio post soon as the half-read, quarter-read, and unread Globe throwaway picks up speed and the clippings are added to the piles (no guarantee they will be used, mind you) as we get as current as we can so we can stop doing this.
The whole narrative is really getting to me now, this broad net the propaganda pre$$ casts over all who oppose their agenda in one form or another. Here we have antigovernment, anti-Western, anti-health(?).
She said the group and its violent ideology would spread if left unchecked. “It’s like a disease,” she said.
Hi, my name is () and I read the Bo$ton Globe. It started reading decades ago, and....
Efosa Ojomo, a student at Harvard Business School, said another rally is planned for Friday afternoon on campus.
Looks like I will be carrying a Slow Saturday Special this week if past history is any indication.
He said demonstrations and social media campaigns highlighting the plight of the kidnapped girls started in response to “a perception that the government was not doing anything about this.”
Again, when the propaganda pre$$ discovers and covers a protest one must look at the language and tone of coverage as well as the amount. This is beginning to have the feel of a kon job for the usual reasons.
Aminu Gamawa, a Muslim lawyer, noted to demonstrators that Boko Haram has also targeted moderate Islamic scholars, and he issued a call for unity among Nigerians regardless of faith.
“Please don’t allow anybody to use religion to divide you in this cause,” he told the group of demonstrators, which included Christians and Muslims.
Why drag Christians into this?
Of course, I've been typing that for years here at this blog because it has become clear that sectarianism in any form is simply a cover for covert western intelligence operations and psyops, given that people have lived and even intermarried for centuries without such things on such a scale. Real disagreements are often local and about land, and those are then hijacked and taken advantage of by outside groups or domestic power structures that serve elites.
