We all love progress and development in technology,but not when it is use for negative purposes,as in the case of a group in Nigeria who now use in for evil deeds.The Joint Task Force (JTF) yesterday banned indefinitely the use of Thuraya mobile phones in all states under emergency rule.
Thuraya phones are based on satellite technology and do not rely on any of the existing GSM or CDMA networks in Nigerian to function.
Boko Haram has reportedly resorted to using Thuraya phones to coordinate attacks since mobile communications were largely suspended by the military.
