Boko Haram moving to Lagos Rivers & Ogun state

The Boko Haram is gradually moving down south to Lagos, Ogun, and Rivers  state, following the extensive military onslaught against it in the North-East geo-political zone, Senator Babafemi Ojodu (ACN Ekiti) has disclosed.
The senator spoke at a lecture organized to commemorate the 70th birthday of Ropo Sekoni, a retired Professor of Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies, in Lagos, yesterday

 Ojodu said that during a visit by the Senate Committee on Defense, Army and Intelligence to the North-East, military authorities informed them that documents recovered from the dreaded Islamist insurgents revealed that they still have about 6,000 fighters ready to fight to the finish.
Some of the members are hiding at the Sambisa forest far away from Maiduguri, the Borno State capital.
“We were told by the military that the sect members are moving into Ogere in Ogun State, Lagos and Port Harcourt,” Ojudu said. “The military said they are trying to flush them out, but we don’t know how much they have succeeded.” (source from www.boko-haram.blogspot.com)
The senator added, “The Boko Haram issue is the biggest problem before us but we are not tackling it with urgency. We are busy talking about 2015.”
Ojodu stated that his team’s five-day official assignment ended abruptly on the third day because the atmosphere in the area was “not conducive.”
The military, according to  Ojudu, showed the visiting senators several video clips, including how members of the dreaded sect butchered the 10 traders from Bodija market, Ibadan, who had travelled to the North to buy beans. (source from www.boko-haram.blogspot.com)
The documents recovered from the sect also revealed that members had vowed that they would fight to the finish, Ojodu, representing Ekiti Central, added.
On Monday, the International Criminal Court (ICC) indicted the extremist Boko Haram sect for crime against humanity for its widespread and systematic murder and persecution of civilians since 2009.
The report titled, “Situation in Nigeria” says there is reasonable basis that since July 2009, the group that aims to spread radical Islam in Northern Nigeria has committed crime against humanity.
The report highlights various attacks on civilian population by the sect. It also described these attacks as systematic and widespread spanning over the entire North-Eastern region, as well as Plateau, Kogi, Kano, Bauchi and Kaduna states. ( source from www.boko-haram.blogspot.com)
