Hairbayar Marri Says Balochs Destined to Win Freedom
from The Baloch Hal | July 3, 2012 | Story
Hairbyar Marri
LONDON: A Baloch nationalist leader who supports an independent Balochistan, Nawabzada Hairbayar Marri, has warned that if the international community does not cooperate with the Baloch people to check Pakistan's support for extremist Islamic groups, the menace would one day pose serious threats to the stability and security of other nations of the world.
"We are destined to win freedom. Pakistani intelligence agencies are unlikely to stop us from achieving our goal," he vowed.
He said this in a condolence statement issued in reaction to the killing of Malik Noor Ahmed Qambarani, an old confidant of his father and veteran Baloch nationalist leader, Nawab Khair Baksh Marri, whose killing Hairbayar alleged was orchestrated by the death squads of the Pakistan intelligence agencies.
"I knew Mr. Qambarani personally," he recalled, "he was a brave, committed and selfless Baloch."
Mr. Marri said that the Pakistani intelligence agencies were frustrated with the growing popularity of the Baloch nationalist movement. In order to counter the political movement, they were creating underground death squads to target kill the most educated and enlightened members of the Baloch society. These death squads, he added, keep changing their color all the time.
He warned the 'civilized world' to realize how dangerous Pakistani state's collaboration with radical Islamist groups was as it would lead to destructive consequences for the world peace. While these groups were currently being mashroomed to undermine the Baloch nationalist resistance movement, one day they will turn against the whole world community. He appealed to the international governments to help the Baloch against Pakistan's policies supportive of Islamic extremist groups.

RIFAN urges FG to sustain border closure
obinna unaeze
The Rice Farmers Association of Nigeria (RIFAN) has urged Federal Government to sustain its current border closure, saying it would help boost the economy.
Alhaji Idris Abini, the chairman of Niger state chapter of the association made the call in Minna during an interview with the Nigeria News Agency on Sunday.
Abini said that the closure has increased rice production in the state due to increased demand by marketers and consumers.
Also, Over 10m farmers nationwide benefit from anchor borrowers programme -RIFAN.
"Although we are yet to meet local demand for rice.
"We have started the journey to produce more rice due to the closure of our borders because efforts will be made by both government and farmers to produce enough food.
"The border closure is a right step in the right direction because it is already increasing wealth among farmers as consumers are beginning to patronise our local rice," he said.
He said that Nigeria has different varieties of rice that can compete favourably with foreign ones.
The RIFAN chairman said that the closure would ensure security in the country as smuggling of illegal arms and ammunition would be curtailed.
"Those criticising the closure of the borders are not a true Nigerians because it is one of the best decisions of this administration," he said.
Abini expressed optimism that the policy would succeed as government was providing the enabling environment for agriculture to thrive by supporting farmers with inputs and implements.
"The federal government has demonstrated this through the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Anchor Borrowers Scheme by allowing farmers to access more loans even when previous ones have not been fully repaid," he said.

He returned to Jamaica in 1949 and in 1950 mounted his first one-man exhibition. In 1962, Baugh, Albert Huie, Linden Leslie, Jerry Isaacs, and Edna Manley formed the Jamaica School of Art, now the Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts. Baugh taught at the institution until his retirement in 1975.
