In two separate incidents in Lower Shabelle region, #AMISOM troops have killed more than eight #AlShabaab fighters, including a top commander.
The commander, a chief finance controller of #AlShabaab and head of the Zakat tax collection in Lower Shabelle region, was killed on Monday after #AMISOM troops ambushed a venue of an #AlShabaab meeting in Bariire.
The incident in Bariire comes after a botched probe attack by #AlShabaab on an #AMISOM Forward Operating Base (FOB) at kilometre 50, on Sunday, in which seven militants were killed and a technical vehicle destroyed.
#AMISOM will continue working with the federal and state governments to ensure Al-Shabaab is defeated and lasting peace and security restored in #Somalia.

Buhari was portrayed as the man that would make Nigeria the safest country on earth, but on the contrary, the security situation under him has deteriorated massively, with possibly Benue state being possibly the worst victim of Buhari's incompetent handling of national security
Let's consider what Benue state has suffered under Buhari's watch.

In 2015, Benue state suffered at least 8 attacks.

See infographic from PremiumTimes.
In 2016, Benue state suffered possibly the worst attack in Nigeria's history - The Agatu attack in which at least 500 people were killed in that single incident.

Again, see infographic - source PremiumTimes.

By the way, Buhari claimed he sent the IGP to Benue, but no show

And now: @lauralifts on A Taxonomy of Black Swans. #LISA18
@lauralifts What I should have called this talk is "15 postmortems in 30 minutes". #LISA18
@lauralifts What is a "black swan"?
- Outlier event.
- Hard to predict.
- Severe in impact.

1) True story thread told me by CE, USA-Iraq 🇺🇸

Are U really safe? 'U lock the house door U feel safe but there's glass windows everywhere. There's an illusion of safety in America a bubble that everybody feels like they're entitled. Your safe becse U feel U can't be touched?
2) When I'm in the states & I walk around, look at the people I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone. Nobody knows, nobody cares, everybody's walking around either looking at their cell phone, looking at their shoes, think about the gossip & a little illusion of safety! Are you?
3) But, in short again the way I see everything is that until we have a war on our soil🇺🇸 it's not real to the regular person. It's something that happens to other people/other countries!
Are you really safe?
