If it was a village that was attacked by terrorists, 48 hours after, the Nigerian security services would have still been waiting for “reliable” intelligence. But in matters like this, they are up, ready and active. Nigerian, open your eyes and see.

Details of Sanusi’s meeting with security Chiefs
TheTalk.NG earlier reported that a source disclosed what the Emir Sanusi II told top security chiefs during a crucial meeting.
Sanusi II said the court order trying to stop his reinstatement as Emir of Kano is a media court order until he sees it.
The monarch explained that his reinstatement by Governor Abba Kabiru Yusuf-led state government was a correction of the injustice carried out against him by the previous government
