Cameroon's security forces are predicting a drawn-out battle with Boko Haram as evidence filters out that the insurgents are now recruiting there.
"We don't doubt that Boko Haram is recruiting in Cameroon," said Col. Joseph Nouma, commander of Operation ALPHA, a special military operation set up by Cameroon's government to fight the Nigerian terrorist group.
He says communities bordering Nigeria have been emptied of men between the ages of 10 and 45.
"Many of them are found across the border in Nigeria, training with the terrorists," he told CNN.
This has made it difficult for the country's defense forces to adequately estimate the power of the terrorist group. Nouma said the number of militants may be greater than is widely believed, though there is no reliable estimate of the group's strength.
"Boko Haram is a permanent metamorphosis, dying every day but recruiting every day as well," says Col. Jacob Kodji, interim commander of the 4th Military Region. "And this complicates a lot of things for us."
Nouma agreed: "We kill them, but they keep on coming." Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

Keep on giving urself to BH for recruitment, at the end of the day, who is at lost? Making urselves enemies of the world bcos of stupid religion, enjoy! *sips coke* but still, my vote goes to Buhari... It's GMB2015, the hope of good change. Argue with your maigads
ReplyDeleteThank God that u prefar Buhari.It is not Islam that make the idiot boko Haram,they are just being senseless.Please find time to read quran written in Enlglish.You will see that Islam does not sent them.An extract from the holy quran said there is no compulsion in religeon.
ReplyDeleteMuslims who commit acts of violence and terror in the name of God, can find ample justification for their actions, based on the teachings of the Qur'an and the sayings and examples from prophet Muhammad himself!
ReplyDeleteThe following are only some of the verses in the Qur'an that can and have been used in the history of Islam in support of violence in the name of God and the glories of martyrdom in a holy war.
9:5 "... fight and slay the pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war) ..."
9:14 "Fight them, and God will punish them by your hands, cover them with shame ..."
9:29 "Fight those who believe not in God nor the Last Day nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by God and his apostle nor acknowledge the Religion of Truth (even if they are) of the people of the Book, until they pay the Jizya [religious tax] with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."
47:4 "Therefore, when ye meet the unbelievers, smite at their necks, at length when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them) ... but if it had been God's will, he could certainly have exacted retribution from them (himself), but (he lets you fight) in order to test you, some with others. But those who are slain in the way of God, he will never let their deeds be lost."
61:4 "Truly God loves those who fight in His cause in battle array, as if they were a solid cemented structure."
2:190-193 "Fight in the cause of God those who fight you ... And slay them wherever ye catch them ... And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression and there prevail justice and faith in God ..."
4:101 "... For the Unbelievers are unto you open enemies."
5:54 "O ye who believe. Take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors. They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them. Verily God guideth not a people unjust."
Lol.. so assuming "emilia" (*if that is her real name) did not support bokohari what would u have said.
ReplyDeleteYou would be raining insults on her.
Please "emilia" and anonymous 2.01pm do read the Koran and you will see that it is nothing but a cacophony of lies and twisted bible stories promoting violence, wickedness, intolerance and division.
There is no peace there, don't be fooled
