what an end to a controversial President, RIP though

He would have gotten better medical care from the west he despised so much. Getting operated on in Cuba which susequently led to the respirationary infection wasn't good enough.

alala dakosta: rip chavez.saw it on CNN, have to come to Nairaland to CONFIRM.

You Need help

V-lyrics:
Stubborn man, comot 4 office u no agree, just keep movin from hospital to hospital... Death be not proud sha... Death oneday u self go die

What made him stubborn? or you just heard the word newly? go to Venezuela and say what you have just said now. This man brought Venezuela from the poorest country to one of the richest countries in the world now, he brought back the middle class and lifted the status of the poor in his country.

He opposed all the Western impoverish economical policies mostly from the USA and that is why he is in their black book list.He made his country the cheapest OPEC member fuel price nation. He has more of the refineries in the US soil. Education is free for all, he might not be perfect but a leader with 1% of his patriotism, is all what Nigeria need to move this country forward not these western paupers you have as rulers.

Read well before you comment, he was duly elected by his people, if they had wanted him to leave he would have left for a very long time. No time is too much for a performing leader. Stop being deceived by the mock civilian government you have in your country as a democracy, there is no democracy in your country yet.

If God can give Nigeria a leader like this man, honestly in few years Nigeria will be more than the western countries. That is why they are drawing the country back with their agents you call rulers/politicians. Do not mock the dead, because you are not holding your life in your palms.

ADIOS HOMBRE FUERTE HUGO CHAVEZ, TE QUIERO HASTA LA MUERTE.

This man no try at all, he should have retire/stepdown since and focus on his health.cancer is not a disease that should be toiled with.

olodorabata: Finally!

The South American Chime Sullivan don kpeme. Shior!

dont compare him with Chime. Chavez sickness was not a secret.

he was down wiv cancer and still went through the rigours of election campaigns coupled wv governance.He should have given himself a Break.Fidel Castro is alive and kicking.

chingyjant: Venezuela is one big hell of irony where people are suffering in the mist of plenty irrespective of their oil money. Another end of an era of a Dictator.Rest in peace

What about Nigerians? Aint they suffering in the midst of plenty? Mind you, Venezuela has the cheapest price of oil in the world. Saviour of the poor. Plus, he was never a puppet to the West.

If you talked about crime and immorality...it would have been another issue.

Steve Jobs founder of Apple Inc died of cancer in USA, cancer is dangerous.

Although mostly solitary, honey badgers may hunt together in pairs during the May breeding season.[22] Little is known of the honey badger's breeding habits. Its gestation period is thought to last six months, usually resulting in two cubs, which are born blind. They vocalise through plaintive whines. Their lifespans in the wild are unknown, though captive individuals have been known to live for approximately 24 years.[7]


Dentition
Honey badgers live alone in self-dug holes. They are skilled diggers, being able to dig tunnels into hard ground in 10 minutes. These burrows usually only have one passage and a nesting chamber and are usually not large, being only 1–3 m in length. They do not place bedding into the nesting chamber.[24] Although they usually dig their own burrows, they may take over disused aardvark and warthog holes or termite mounds.[22]
Honey badgers are intelligent animals and are one of a few species known to be capable of using tools. In the 1997 documentary series Land of the Tiger, a honey badger in India was filmed making use of a tool; the animal rolled a log and stood on it to reach a kingfisher fledgling stuck up in the roots coming from the ceiling in an underground cave.[25]
As with other mustelids of relatively large size, such as wolverines and badgers, honey badgers are notorious for their strength, ferocity and toughness. They have been known to savagely and fearlessly attack almost any kind of animal when escape is impossible, reportedly even repelling much larger predators such as lions.[26] Bee stings, porcupine quills, and animal bites rarely penetrate their skin. If horses, cattle, or Cape buffalos intrude upon a ratel's burrow, it will attack them. They are virtually tireless in combat and can wear out much larger animals in physical confrontations.[21] The aversion of most predators toward hunting honey badgers has led to the theory that the countershaded coats of cheetah kittens evolved in imitation of the honey badger's colouration to ward off predators.[27]
The voice of the honey badger is a hoarse "khrya-ya-ya-ya" sound. When mating, males emit loud grunting sounds.[5] Cubs vocalise through plaintive whines.[7] When confronting dogs, honey badgers scream like bear cubs.[28]
Diet
Next to the wolverine, the honey badger has the least specialised diet of the weasel family.[13] In undeveloped areas, honey badgers may hunt at any time of the day, though they become nocturnal in places with high human populations. When hunting, they trot with their foretoes turned in, moving at the same speed as a young man[clarification needed]. Honey badgers favor bee honey, and will often search for beehives to get it, which earns them their name. They often follow a honeyguide (a bird that eats bee larvae) to find the beehives. They are also carnivorous and will eat insects, frogs, tortoises, rodents, turtles, lizards, eggs, and birds. Honey badgers have even been known to chase away young lions and take their kills. They will eat fruit and vegetables such as berries, roots and bulbs.[22]
They may hunt frogs and rodents such as gerbils and ground squirrels by digging them out of their burrows. Honey badgers are able to feed on tortoises without difficulty, due to their powerful jaws. They kill and eat snakes, even highly venomous or large ones such as cobras. They have been known to dig up human corpses in India.[29] They devour all parts of their prey, including skin, hair, feathers, flesh and bones, holding their food down with their forepaws.[30] When seeking vegetable food, they lift stones or tear bark from trees.[22]
Range

The species ranges through most of sub-Saharan Africa, from the Western Cape, South Africa, to southern Morocco and southwestern Algeria and outside Africa through Arabia, Iran and western Asia to Turkmenistan and the Indian Peninsula. It is known to range from sea level to as much as 2,600 m above sea level in the Moroccan High Atlas and 4,000 m in Ethiopia's Bale Mountains.[1]
Relationships with humans

Honey badgers often become serious poultry predators. Because of their strength and persistence, they are difficult to deter. They are known to rip thick planks from hen-houses or burrow underneath stone foundations. Surplus killing is common during these events, with one incident resulting in the death of 17 Muscovy ducks and 36 chickens.[22]
Because of the toughness and looseness of their skin, honey badgers are very difficult to kill with dogs. Their skin is hard to penetrate, and its looseness allows them to twist and turn on their attackers when held. The only safe grip on a honey badger is on the back of the neck. The skin is also tough enough to resist several machete blows. The only sure way of killing them quickly is through a blow to the skull with a club or a shot to the head with a gun, as their skin is almost impervious to arrows and spears.[31]
During the British occupation of Basra, rumours of "man-eating badgers" emerged from the local population, including allegations that these beasts were released by the British troops, something that the British categorically denied.[32][33] A British army spokesperson said that the badgers were "native to the region but rare in Iraq" and "are usually only dangerous to humans if provoked".[34] The director of Basra's veterinary hospital, Mushtaq Abdul-Mahdi, confirmed that honey badgers had been seen in the area as early as 1986. The deputy dean of Basra's veterinary college, Dr. Ghazi Yaqub Azzam, speculated that "the badgers were being driven towards the city because of flooding in marshland north of Basra."[33] The event received coverage in the Western press during the 2007 silly season.[35]
In many parts of North India, honey badgers are reported to have been living in the close vicinity of human dwellings, leading to many instances of attacks on poultry, small livestock animals and, sometimes, even children.[citation needed] They retaliate fiercely when attacked, and are reviled in North India.[citation needed] According to a 1941 volume of The Fauna of British India, the honey badger has also been reported to dig up human corpses in that country.[36]
In Kenya, the honey badger is a major reservoir of rabies[37][38] and suspected to be a significant contributor to the sylvatic cycle of the disease.[39]
