"[5] The body of journalist Nansok Sallah was found lying face down in a shallow stream under a bridge in the central town of Jos, less than 200 meters (650 feet) from a military checkpoint, according to statements from the radio's general manager.

[8] Just one day after Sallah's death, another journalist, Enenche Akogwu of Channels TV, was killed while reporting on a series of Boko Haram terrorist attacks.

[2] In a report released yesterday, the Human Rights Watch called upon Nigerian authorities to stop Boko Haram, a task made complicated because the group is believed to have allies within the government.

[11] Boko Haram, which means "Western education is a sin," is a militant group fighting to extend Shariah law beyond the mostly-Muslim northern parts of Nigeria.

[14] "We mourn the death of Nansok Sallah, and extend our condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues," said CPJ Africa Advocacy Coordinator Mohamed Keita.
