No Borno Local Govt. Area is Under Boko Haram Control

By -

Borno State government on Monday denied reports that some local council areas in the state are still under Boko Haram control.
Governor Kashim Shettima, who reacted to weekend's claims by a senator that the insurgents are still in control of more than half of the state, told reporters to dismiss the lawmaker's claim.
He said, "To me, it is unbelievable that such a statement could have emanated from Senator Baba Kaka Bashir Garbai. I can't believe he said that because as a Senator, he has access to the Chief of Defence Staff, the Chief of Army Staff, the IGP and even the Presidency and he is not the type that even speaks to the media easily. So this is why I am at a lost.
"I have not been able to get in touch with him yet to get his own side, to hear from him what he actually said. But for now, I suspect he must have been misquoted or if he wasn't misquoted, he must have spoken based on emotional outburst and not anchored on ground realities."

Male Angle Don't trivialise it When I first wondered about this question, I thought it was something actually ridiculous, but after having discussed it with my wife and a few friends, I must say that I agree with a lot of the things everyone said. Let me explain here. I definitely agree it can be a little sexy to say it, but it depends on the familiarity and the relationship you both have. But I also completely understand how many people can be made to feel like a used piece of crap, a prostitute, or it just being plain awkward if they get thanked every time they had sex with their partners. I can see it from both sides. But it just depends on the situation. Men also have the same issues to think about. For us, it is also about being put on the center stage and our sexual performance is being verified, acknowledged and praised or abused. It's like a prized bull or horse being praised while being used for breeding. A lot of men will even question why there should even be a ne...
