Osama Bin Laden Son In New Threat To UK As Jihadi Threatens Vengeance For Father’s Death
OSAMA Bin Laden’s Son, Hamza Has vowed to attack the West to avenge his terrorist father.
An ex-FBI agent will reveal the threat from Bin Laden’s son Hamza in a forthcoming episode of American news show 60 Minutes.
Letters from Hamza, then aged 22, have been declassified and have been revealed by Ali Soufan, the ex-FBI agent.
Hamza, who was once tipped to take over leadership of al-Qaeda after his father, allegedly wrote the notes to his dad.
The letter read: “Every look… every smile you gave me, every word you told me, I consider myself to be forged in steel.
“The path of jihad for the sake of God is what we live [for].”
Bin Laden senior was killed by US Navy Seals in 2011 after being at the top of the US most wanted list for a decade.
US Navy Seal Team Six killed Bin Laden in Abbottabad, Pakistan, on May 2 in 2011.
Dozens of letters written by him to his family have since been released to the public after his hideout was raided for intelligence.
Hamza, now believed to be 28, committed himself to the terrorists’ cause within the letters.
Since then, he has openly threatened terrorist attacks in London, Washington and Paris.
Mr Soufan said plans for Hamza to take control were put in place when he was still a child.
In 2015 Al Qaeda released an audio message of Hamza.
Since, he has released four messages calling for murder in the West.
The ex-FBI agent said: “He was a poster kid for Al Qaeda… and for members of Al Qaeda, who were indoctrinated with these propaganda videos, he means a lot to them.”
Mr Soufan said: “He’s basically saying, ‘American people, we’re coming and you’re going to feel it. And we’re going to take revenge for what you did to my father… Iraq… Afghanistan.’ The whole thing was about vengeance.”
This year, in January, Hamza was placed on a US state department terror watch list.
As his father was, Hamza was classed “specially designated global terrorist”.

Buhari’s Health: 3 Foreign Doctors Storm Abuja On Buhari’s Situation
Three foreign medical doctors flown into Abuja, Nigeria’s federal capital, following a deterioration of President Muhammadu Buhari’s health.
According to Sahara Reporters sources, the doctors; British and Caucasian, include two males and one female, stormed Aso Rock to ensure the revival of the president who is said to have seriously emaciated.
President Buhari has not stepped out of his official residence for about two weeks after it emerged that his health condition was not improving, which clearly contradicts statements credited to the presidency that he was ready to work and had resumed.
A source within the presidency revealed that the National Intelligence Agency (NIA) has set up a “safe house” in Abuja where Mr. Buhari is being treated by a relay of mostly foreign doctors.
Rumours are rife that the Nigerian leader is ravaged by Crohn’s Disease, an intestinal disorder, he is believed to also have prostate issues as well as age-related disorders, including early-stage dementia. Mr. Buhari’s official age is listed as 74, but he is widely believed to be much older.
Recession: MTN Nigeria Sacks 280 Workers
About 280 staff of MTN Nigeria have been relieved of their jobs by the South African telecommunications firm.
Information has it that it was a voluntary exercise based on an agreement between those that were sacked and the company’s human resources department.
Sources within the firm confirmed to The Guardian that those affected, about 280 were mostly permanent employees, who had spent five years and above with the organisation from 2001 when MTN began commercial service in Nigeria. The source revealed that MTN Nigeria has 1800 permanent staff.
Though, as at press time, the firm had not issued a statement to that effect, a source, however, explained to The Guardian that the latest downsizing affected about 280 staff, who voluntarily agreed to leave the company.The source said the sackings were as a result of “the changing dynamics of the telecoms industry in recent times.”
According to the source, when the company started operation in Nigeria in 2001, “ICT was just coming up, so many people employed then were not that tech savvy, but since MTN has become a full-fledged ICT Company, the management decides to inject fresh tech savvy employees into the system. The plan, which will be unveiled soon will be to employ a new set of people, young and dynamic that will drive the new vision of the firm in earnest.”
The source said the company introduced the Voluntary Severance Scheme (VSS), to provide a window for one week in April, for persons who have served in MTN for five years and above to take up.
“Those who decided to leave under the VSS were to be paid the equivalent of their three weeks gross salary for every year they worked with MTN.
“What it means is that if one worked in MTN for five years, one would be paid three weeks of their gross salaries times five.”
She claimed that all the 280 staff were disengaged under the VSS and paid their due benefits.
A report claimed that MTN, which was fined by the Nigerian authorities to the tune of $5.2 billion in 2015 but reduced to N780 billion in 2016 for contravening regulatory orders to disconnect about 5.2 million unregistered subscribers on its network, recorded nearly $1 billion in profit in 2016.
