Wife of suspected Boko Haram member cries out for help

A housewife whose husband is an alleged member of the Boko Haram sect has lamented her family's ordeal since her husband was allegedly taken away by security agents in Abuja.

She said that her husband's name was Muhammad and that  he ran away leaving her with four children to cater for. According to her, her husband was a trader at Abuja before the police discovered his alleged membership of Boko Haram sect.

The housewife, Mrs Maryam Inusa narrated their ordeal to our correspondent in Kano at the hospital where she was left for dead in the mortuary alongside 14 dead bodies killed during the joint military task force (JTF) raid at Unguwa Uku area, in Kano. She sustained broken arms, bleeding nose and looked emaciated, when our correspondent met her.

A mortuary attendant at the hospital told LEADERSHIP that she was brought by men of JTF among the dead and it was discovered that she was only injured and when the hospital authorities  alerted the soldiers who brought her on this development  they seemed not to care and left her to her fate.



According to Mrs Inusa, "I came to visit my husband's brother from Abuja to Kano whom I lost contact with for the last three months, since the security agents checked on him in our house in Abuja. Soldiers killed my husband's brother, today, too."

"We were married for 13 good years now and we have six children, two died long ago and four are alive. JTF took away my month old child and the three others. I don't know where they were taken to or what would they did with them,"

Maryam told our correspondent tearfully, "I want to be back in my home, Maiduguri, where I will be taken care of by relatives. I have nobody here in Kano."

Microsoft Is About To Leave One-Third Of All Computers Vulnerable To Hacking

Hundreds of millions of computers running everything from ATMs to the power grid will be vulnerable to hacking next month when Microsoft stops supporting its old Windows XP operating system. Hackers have been holding onto flaws in Windows XP and waiting to exploit them until after the software giant stops issuing security updates on April 8, experts say. Adam Meyers, vice president of intelligence at Crowdstrike, a cybersecurity firm, said it was “fairly dangerous” to continue using the 12-year-old operating system because after the deadline “victims can’t defend themselves.” “I certainly wouldn't run Windows XP after the 8th," Meyers said in an interview. Microsoft announced six years ago it will no longer provide security patches or technical support for the out-of-date software. Yet about  one-third of computers  around the world -- or about 500 million PCs -- still run Windows XP. On Microsoft’s website , a clock ticks down to next month’s Windows deadline an...

50 life lessons you can still learn now that your young.....

You’re stronger than you think you are. Mistakes teach you important lessons. Every time you make one, you’re one step closer to your goal. There is nothing to hold you back except you. You can press forward long after you can’t. It’s a matter of wanting it bad enough. No matter how much progress you make there will always be the people who insist that whatever you’re trying to do is impossible. You are limited only by your own imagination. Let it fly. Perception is reality. Your instincts can be trusted. There is only one question to ask yourself: “What would you do if you were not afraid?” It’s often hard to tell just how close you are to success. The only mistake that can truly hurt you is choosing to do nothing simply because you’re too scared to make a mistake. Never let success get to your head, and never let failure get to your heart. You have to fight through some bad days to earn the best days of your life. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how ...
