Nigeria Reveals Wave Of Jailbreaks

More than 2,000 prisoners have escaped over the past five years in Nigeria, officials say, mainly as a result of attacks on jails by the Islamist militant Boko Haram group.



They say that dozens of prison staff have been killed during the raids.

Last month hundreds of prisoners escaped when jihadists overran Mubi town. This week they blew a hole in a jail in Kogi State to free dozens more.
Almost 500 prisoners escaped in the city of Maiduguri in 2009.
A total of 2,251 prisoners have got away and most of them are still at large, officials say.
Figures released by the Nigerian Prisons Service show that as of 30 June there were nearly 57,000 male and female prisoners in 239 jails.
The BBC's Will Ross in Lagos says that the jihadists have recently attacked a French cement plant in northern Nigeria and seized a large supply of dynamite - so more jail breaks may be on the way.

Boko Haram has caused havoc in Africa's most populous country through a wave of bombings, assassinations and abductions.
It is fighting to overthrow the government and create an Islamic state.
Boko Haram regards the Nigerian state as being run by non-believers, even when the country had a Muslim president.

Our correspondent says rampant insecurity is increasingly worrying for Nigerians who wonder how the militants will ever be stopped.

There are many reports of soldiers fleeing rather than defending towns and villages as the insurgents continue to capture territory where they impose their own strict version of Islamic law.BBC reportage

  3. IS NIGERIA GOING THE WAY OF TURKEY?
    •Turkey is in the present day Europe and
    partly in Asia minor.
    •Apostle Paul was a citizen of Tukey
    because Tarsus exists in Turkey.
    •Christianity existed in Turkey for about
    1,023 years while Christianity has only
    existed in Nigeria for 172yrs starting
    from when Rev. Birch Freeman came to
    Badagry in 1842.
    •The seven churches Jesus spoke to in
    Revelations 2&3(Ephesus,Smy
    rna,Laodicea,Philadelphia,etc)existed in
    the old Turkey.
    •The disciples were first called Christians
    in Turkey(Antioch)
    •Turkey once had the largest Christian
    auditorium in Europe called Hagia
    Sophia in Constantinople.
    •Mary the mother of Jesus was taken to
    Turkey by Apostle John and till date, her
    room has become a tourist centre.
    TURKEY TODAY
    •Present day Turkey now has 96%
    muslims&0.02% Christians(less than
    130,000).
    •The Hagia Sophia(once largest church
    in Europe) was taken over by muslims
    and converted to a mosque for over
    400yrs and later used as an Islamic
    Museum
    WHY CHRISTIANITY COLLAPSED IN
    TURKEY
    •Emphasis on doctrinal differences
    weakened the Turkish church.
    •Rivalries amongst denominations
    •Petty politics in church coupled with
    ethnic biase
    •The Turks were building big cathedrals
    instead of building men.
    HOW IT HAPPENED
    •Osman Ghazi discovered the disunity
    amongst Christians and used it to fight a
    Jihad that led to a mass genocide of the
    Armenians, the Hellen and Turks of that
    day. Infact, the weapon of war used was
    designed by a Turkish Christian.
    •Many Christian women converted to
    Islam to save their lives and some were
    raped.
    •Osman Ghazi started the Ottoman
    empire which gave muslims political
    post and made it a religion of the state.
    IS NIGERIA HEADING THE WAY OF
    TURKEY
    •Virtually all the mistakes the church in
    Turkey made, the Nigerian church has
    made it.
    •We are building Cathedrals at the
    expense of discipling men.
    •Disunity amongst churches
    •Ethnicity in the church
    •Denominational rivalry, etc.
    •Sharp division along doctrinal lines
    MORE FACTS
    •The spiritual foundation of Turkey is
    stronger than that of Nigeria and
    Christianity existed for over 1000yrs in
    Turkey unlike ours which is just 172yrs
    but Islam Radicalism uprooted it. If it
    can happen in Turkey, it can also
    happen IF we are not careful.
    •The menace of Boko Haram has
    destroyed a lot of churches in the north
    and it may take another 200yrs to
    evangelise Borno state alone.
    •There is a secret agenda to Islamize
    Nigeria & other African nations as
    contained in Abuja declaration of 1989.
    DON'T SAY IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE, IF
    WE DON'T RIGHT OUR WRONGS AS A
    CHURCH.
    SOLUTION
    •HEART-FELT Intercession
    •Aggressive evangelism- the terrorist
    reached out to the youths in the norths
    first and gave them AK-47 and bombs, if
    we had reached out to them on time,
    they'll be carrying BIBLES today.
    •Mission support:-God is holding the
    church responsible for Boko Haram, yet
    we are blaming the governement.If we
    had supported missions and
    missionaries, we would have those
    insurgents to Christ long ago.
    •Unity of the church is key in winning
    this battle. The last but not the least
    christians should be actively involve in
    politics. Enough of these muslims
    political office holder with islamic
    agenda
    ARISE CHURCH & LETS DO THE NEEDFUL

      Christians need to unite,if it means going to war physically against these sect,then fine,cos they are determined and d irony is dat some of their sponsors are politicians(mayb Christians inclusive) who are doing this ignorantly for their political interest,meanwhile boko is driving to achieve a deeper result which is taking over nigeria!its a win win for them.
      God pls.hear us!

    Islam is a religion of voilence(4m d mouth of a former muslim), no mercy( d iraqi lady wu wrote her mother b4 she was hanged), anger(my neibos) and aggression(wen dey preach wit d bible, somtin a xtian cannot try), dis is nt only a BH tin oo eg ISIS.
