Cameroon troops in ‘heavy clashes’ with Boko Haram

Image
Cameroonian troops fought “heavy clashes” Tuesday with Boko Haram militants near the border with Nigeria as a security summit kicked off in Niger on a regional plan to stop the Islamist fighters. Boko Haram insurgents from neighbouring Nigeria attacked the far northern Cameroon border village of Bonderi, a source told AFP, adding that “it’s too early to give a casualty toll”. The fighting comes as Nigeria and its regional neighbours, including Chad, Niger and Cameroon, met in Niger’s capital Niamey to plan a strategy against the Islamist fighters. Boko Haram controls swathes of Nigeria and has stepped up cross-border attacks in the region as part of an insurgency that has left 13,000 dead and forced 1.5 million from their homes since 2009. Chad sent a convoy of troops and 400 military vehicles into Cameroon Saturday to help in the fight against Boko Haram and its president has called for the creation of a regional force. Vanguard.

School Driver Dies After Taken 'Truth Portion' In Kenya

Image
A Kenyan school bus driver has died after drinking a 'truth potion' brewed by a witch doctor to prove he had not stolen books. School directors in a village in Kisii County hired the witch doctor to seek out the thief of school books, with the driver volunteering to drink the potion to prove he was innocent. 'The driver was dared... to prove his innocence by drinking the mixture,' local police chief Simon Kiragu told the Daily Nation newspaper. 'The 33-year old collapsed and died immediately after the drink.' Furious villagers then took revenge on school leaders by torching the school bus and the deputy director's house. Reports of death relating to witchcraft in Kenya are reasonably common and the bus driver's death comes 10 days after villagers were reported to have spent a day waiting for a witch doctor to bring a corpse back to life. Furious Kenyan villagers said they wasted a day waiting for him to resurrect the body after he claimed to have

Chinese Company Huawei To Sue PDP Over illegal Jonathan Campaign Advert

Image
Huawei, a Chinese Telecommunications company, has cancelled its street lamp pole outdoor contract, with Lagos based outdoor advertising agency Touchpoint Limited over illegal deployment of Goodluck Jonathan campaign materials on poles paid for by the company. Huawei had secured the old tollgate location by Motorways, Ojota, Lagos, for a period of one year and had paid the mandatory Lagos State Signage & Advertisement Agency (LASAA) fee for their campaign. Sources at Huawei said the deployment of Goodluck Jonathan campaign materials alongside theirs was unacceptable and therefore had no alternative but to cancel the contract. Touch Point in a statement said ‘Our client, Huawei cancelled the contract saying it was due to the breach by the PDP to run a parallel campaign on poles solely reserved for Huawei’’. The statement went on further: ‘Elections should not be used as an avenue to disrupt the honest business of hardworking Nigerians. There are procedures for deploym

Incredible!: PS4 remote-play works on Xperia Z3 Sony smartphones

Image
PS4 and Xperia need to be on the same Wi-Fi network, meaning you can’t venture further than your wireless LAN coverage, but it’s still a great solution for gaming around the house without taking up the primary TV, for just lazing around in bed for a sick day of gaming, or for any other use case where you might ordinarily be forced to sit around and stare at a blank wall or just browse Twitter on your phone while waiting for something else to happen. The PlayStation 4 is a platform that keeps giving, thanks to frequent software updates from Sony. Remote Play for Xperia mobile devices is one such gift, and it works very well on the Xperia Z3, Sony’s latest flagship smartphone. The Remote Play app is available now via the Google Play Store for compatible Xperia devices, and anyone who as both one of those and a PS4 at home should grab it.
