Aunty Chioma,
These might sounds strange to you but I mean every word from the first time I saw you in school, it was if my brain cell stopped working. Each time I see you it will be as if smoke is coming out of my eyes. Your beauty is killing me seriously, although am still in secondary school, I have plans on becoming a rich man.
I know you will say I'm a small boy, but let me tell you when you are in love, age does not matter. I am becoming very useless all because I keep thinking about you each time I close my eyes, I see your picture.
Please consider my request and make me useful for once.
loyment must commence
immediately. Other areas of logistic support, your welfare, be rest
assured we will do our best to provide for you.”

Armed bandits operating
along Birnin-Gwari-Kaduna Highways have kidnapped 87 passengers on
Sunday as the Chief of Army Staff, Lt General Tukur Yusuf Buratai
charged troops to end the wanton killings and destruction of property in
the axis in three weeks.
Kidnap-syndicate
Concerned with the incessant kidnapping and killing, the National Union
of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) in the area cautioned its members from
plying the route pending deployment of troop and other security
agencies.
An official of NURTW told PRNigeria that most of the kidnapped victims
were passengers travelling between North and Southern parts of the
country.
The NURTW official said: “over 15 vehicles including long trucks, buses
and commercial cars were intercepted by the armed bandits who selected
their victims from their look and dressing and herded them into the
bush.
“We learn that the kidnappers have started communicating and negotiating
with the families of their victims, demanding for ransoms in millions
of Naira.
“A man and a woman were killed today while four additional passengers
were also kidnapped.
“As an official of NURTW we have warned our members to henceforth stop
plying the route until there is adequate security in the area.
Meanwhile, the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Tukur Yusuf Buratai has
charged troops to end the wanton killings and destruction of property in
Birnin Gwari local government in Kaduna state by armed bandits in three
weeks.
Speaking when he flagged-off the 2 Battalion Forward Operation Base
(FOB) at the Birnin-Gwari axis of Kaduna state, the army chief charged
troops to go after the bandits and wipe them out.
The Army Chief said, “We are no longer going to adopt the defensive
approach, it must be offensive. Since the battle has been brought to
you, you must take it back and crush them wherever they are.
“The killings must stop, the wanton destructions of properties must
stop, not only within Kaduna state but across the country.
“In the next two, three weeks, there must be a very resounding result
that will bring these criminals to their kneels finally.
“They are not coming from the moon, or coming from outer space, they are
within this territory. I don’t know why you cannot go to where they are
and get them fished out.
“Am happy with the initiative of the General Officer Commanding 1
Division and all the commanders for the new approach and I want to see a
decisive result at the end of this operation.
“The commanders have briefed me thoroughly of your challenges and be
rest assured we have already started addressing some of these
challenges.
“We must respond decisively and commanders must be personally held
responsible for any lapse, they must decide and take appropriate action,
and anything outside that, they must be held responsible.
“The next deployment must commence immediately. Other areas of logistic
support, your welfare, be rest assured we will do our best to provide
for you.”
