Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan acknowledges that his country’s effort to subdue Boko Haram have not produced the results it had promised to the nation. But he is hopeful that this will be the beginning of the end of this terror group.

“I believe the kidnap of these girls will be the beginning of the end for terror in Nigeria,” said Mr Jonathan at the World Economic Forum in Abuja.

The attack this week left 376 people dead and the mass abduction of 276 kidnapped girls a month ago have brought Nigeria to the fore.

Abubakar Shekau, the leader of Boko Haram has made matters worse by admitting that he plans to sell the girls.

This week the town of Gamboru Ngala, a state capital was attacked in which some victims were burned alive.

Countries including United States, France, Britain and China have promised help to Nigeria for finding the girls, as the world outrage over the plight of 276 girls has grown.

The US President Barack Obama said in statement, “Every day when I wake up and I think about young girls in Nigeria or children caught up in the conflict in Syria, when there are times in which I want to reach out and save those kids. And having to think through what levers, what powers do we have at any given moment, I think drop by drop by drop that we can erode and wear down these forces that are so destructive.”

Pakistan has just released an FBI agent on bail, after a three days detention for carrying ammunition onto a flight.

The American agent was arrested on May 5 when the authorities at the Karachi airport found 15 bullets for a 9 millimeter handgun and three knives on him, during a routine check. Authorities say that Joel Cox was bound for Islamabad, the capital city.

He has been freed bail after submitting a surety bond of $10,000.

JenPaksi, U.S. State Department spokeswoman had confirmed the FBI agent’s arrest via a press statement on Wednesday, “This individual detained is an employee of the FBI who was on a temporary duty assignment to provide routine assistance to the legal attache at the U.S. mission.”

Psaki told the press that Washington is working closely with officials in Islamabad to resolve the issue.

Minutes before the bail announcement, Tasneem Aslam, spokeswoman for Pakistani Foreign Office said in her press statement, “Yes, an FBI official was arrested at Karachi airport. The Karachi police officials already have given some preliminary details, the matter is under investigation.”

She also said that Joel Cox was in Pakistan on a short-term visa for his temporary duty at the American embassy, and supposedly did not have diplomatic immunity.

Due to the War on Terror, the United States and Pakistan have had uneasy ties. The relations between the two countries took a major downturn in the year 2011, when a CIA contractor Raymond Davis killed two Pakistani men who he claimed were threatening him.

Later the U.S. Navy Seals had also killed Osama bin Laden on Pakistani soil which is followed by NATO troops misconduct that mistakenly led to the killing of 24 Pakistani soldiers on a border post with Afghanistan.

Argyll consists of nine districts with nine councillors, including the warden. There will be two rounds of public consultations, concluding in a final report that will be submitted to the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board at the end of 2014.

In these public sessions, public input holds great significance, as described by the province, as a “critical element”. Thus, the municipality has encouraged residents to take full advantage of this opportunity and express their views and opinions about the electoral boundaries.

For the past 25 years, the Municipality of Argyll has had different boundary arrangements. It initially had eight council districts, but in the late 1980s, after the addition of three more districts, the council districts rose to 11.
