Why would it make sense to you if kara was different from beans in your eyes?

I employ you, save your strength for the future, you have alot of defending to do, this is just the beginning, the few who saw GEJ for who he is already knew what to expect, but you can continue in your folly.
blame this on sentiments, poor educational system and tribalism.

Without beans, there can't be an akara, without PDP, there wouldn't have been GEJ in the first place. these same people that claimed they didn't vote for PDP but GEJ actually thumb-printed on a PDP logo.

So who was the right person . .your crying general and leader Buhari . . you have no choice than to accept the fact that Buhari is history, you also have to accept the fact that he lost and the current president in GEJ won . . .you look like someone who would be going for regular Blood pressure check ups just because you miscalculated the potential of your pet project Buhari to be acceptable, considering his antecedents which was well proven to everyone to see what a blood thirsty monster he, his party , and his followers are . . .

In order to avoid bringing your GEJ sourness to this thread . .i will excuse you to continue in your self poisoning act as no one can really help you from self destructing one day . . . your bitterness in every thread you visit is just bizarre

[size=18pt]Families of slain officers seek justice[/size]

The gruesome killing of the Divisional Police Officer (DPO), the Divisional Crime Officer (DCO) and an Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP), three key officers of the Badagry police station on May 24 has caused their families anguish.

Their dependents, including aged parents and siblings, are still in shock over the death of the officers whom they described as “loving officers who have left wounds in our hearts that can never heal”.

We want justice

Salisu Samuel, the DPO, a native of Nupe, from Morkwa in Niger state left behind six children, a wife, aged parents and many siblings.

His younger brother John Salisu, who was at the LASUTH Mortuary Ikeja at the weekend, said the DPO’s death was premeditated murder.

“My brother the DPO was a very charming, hard working and selfless officer,” Mr Salisu said. “He has put in 25 years in police work and for him to be killed like a common criminal is very disheartening, the whole family has collapsed since the news of his gruesome death in the hands of the military last week, he was the first child of the family and everybody including our aged parents are in shock.

Mr Salisu said the family wanted justice. He called on the government to set up a judicial panel of enquiry because “we do not have confidence in the panel being set up by the police and the army. The international human right groups and the whole world should hear and see how soldiers are killing Nigerians”.

He further said, “My brother’s death was a set up, because he was a close friend of the CO (Commanding Officer) of that barracks, they ate and drank together. For him to be killed, stripped naked and bricks and stones used on him is very sad, after serving the country he will be repaid with this gruesome death.”

Speaking about their loss, the family of the DCO said Mr Okedusi left behind a void that cannot be filled.

“He has two wives and many children, five of them are undergraduates in the university, you know in Yoruba culture we do not count children,” Michael Okedusi, the younger brother of the late DCO said. “ He was the bread winner, not just to his immediate family but to his extended family. The DCO has put in 34 years in service and he was preparing to retire in five months time when he met his untimely death in the hands of the soldiers.”

Also expressing a lack of confidence in the panel being set up by the police and army, he said “the culprits should be tried in public, so that the culprits will be punished publicly and this will serve at deterrent to other erring officers who take the laws into their hands.”

‘Oh, my husband!’

The family of late ASP Taofeek Afolabi said his death was a rude shock to the family. His wife Folashade a petty trader narrated the last moment she spent with her late husband.

“My husband left home on Monday. On Tuesday, I called him about 11.00am that I heard there was trouble at Badagry he told me he was fine,” she said. “After he was shot, I went to see him at the hospital and he asked after his children, I said they are fine. Now he is dead, who will take care of our children in nursery and primary school? My husband was everything to me and I don’t know if I can have any other husband like him, I am a petty trader and he cared for me and his family so where will I go for help now.”

Fatia Adeola, the elder brother of late Mr Afolabi said it was disheartening that his brother who loved his job and put in 11 years in the service had his life wasted. He called on the government to curb the excesses of the military.

“The gruesome killing of police officers is one case out of hundreds of cases of atrocities committed by the military,” Mr Adeola said. “Anytime something happens to one of them, they will go on rampage killing innocent civilians. Last year in Ilesha, a drunk soldier was found dead in the gutter, that was how soldiers trooped into houses and started killing innocent people. We can remember the Ojulegba killings in 2005, where soldiers killed innocent people, now it is police officers. Next time it may be the CP, the AIG or even Mr President himself that the soldiers will kill, so the federal government must put an end to this dastardly act of the soldiers.”

Meanwhile the Africans For Human Rights International (AfriRights), a human right organization in Lagos, in a press statement dated May 27 has petitioned the presidency to set up a national judicial panel of enquiry to fish out and publicly try the soldiers responsible for the killing of the police officers in Badagry.

The president of AfiRights, Afolabi Gbajumo, in the statement said “AfriRights unequivocally condemned the criminal spate of killings and rampant torture of police men and police women vis-a-vis innocent persons by rampaging arrant soldiers.”

“The claim by the Army PRO that the killings were not masterminded by the soldiers is mischievous fallacy,” Mr Gbajumo said. “We request president Goodluck Jonathan who is by constitution the commander in chief of the Armed forces and the National Assembly to bring the CO of the 242Recce battalion and the culprits to face justice as the killing was premeditated murder.”

He also asked that the families of the slain officers be compensated.

You are actually advocating a coup d'Etat . The head is Rotten so the rest of the body follows . In a country where nothing meaningful is manufactured, the President acquires four(4) presidential jets in less than twenty four months in power, what does that say to the rest of the followers? Our priorities are misplaced. Profligacy and inherent tendency to live beyond our means informs our actions usually negative. It's almost like a national culture. A thorough transformation of all our institutions (A-Z) is needed. Backwardness is very costly but unfortunately in our domain it has become naturalised and seemingly normal. It's shameful and disabling. It manifests itself in general [b]indiscipline [/b]and [b]tolerance [/b]for all manner bad behaviour by so called 'gatekeepers' or 'moral guardians' even the religious zealots amongst us are part of the social decay/problem.

cctv [/b]monitoring will help to solve the problem

@2muchlogic ^^

You are a very optimistic person indeed . You obviously do not understand the underlying socio-political dynamics of our society. Cameras are not even [b]tolerated

^^ There lies some of the root causes of our social malaise i.e. Corruption. How does an honest civil servant or DCO in the police force meet their personal responsibility adequately in the light of the above ^^ snippet/info ?

May his Soul Rest In Peace .

How would he not be corrupt?
All due to his own fault.
Then he will send his subordinates to terrorise other Nigerians on the streets by extracting money from them.

You obviously do not understand the underlying socio-political dynamics of our society. Cameras are not even tolerated in some public places like airports, around banks, near military and police depots etc.  [size=13pt]There is no law against cameras[/size]

What I would like to ask is what about video evidence in Nigeria? Isn't vivid footage of corruption admissible in court? What stops the local and state government from installing cameras in areas where residents have reported this kind of activity?

The bottom line is that most Nigerians have become corrupt as a means of survival and and the politicians are corrupt to maintain their greedy grip on power - its a stalemate     Oh well, it will get worse under Jonathan Badluck

@Sagamite

In the light of the information about his life style , can we rightly assume or conclude that our Culture is to blame . It is manifested - in polygamy, belief in "non counting" of offsprings, sexual rapaciousness/laxity by our men, indiscipline and general tolerance for professional mediocrity or corruption and Inertia in Nigeria. There is a serious need for an enduring long lasting attitudinal change by every Nigerian. The actions of the soldiers and police men are a reflection of the "Nigerian" culture of impunity and slackness. Our Educational system need serious Review and Transformation if we are to enthrone general cultural order or Discipline.

There is nothing wrong with polygamy if you can afford to raise and support the structure but this man is popping kids he possibly can't take care of.
