Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by TayoD(m): 1:45pm On Nov 20, 2006
This is getting real frightening. What exactly was the intention of this man? Does this mean the last few plane crashes could have been a result of such criminalities that went undiscovered? Does this have a political undertone? (Remember the M.A.D. hijackers after June 12?).

I thought this story was embarassing enough until the Aviation minister said he has invited E.F.C.C. to come in and investigate. Can someone please correct this ignorant man that EFCC wasn't set-up to do this sort of job!!!!!!!!!!! embarassed

Could it be that the container actually held powdered shrimp rather than explosives ? That guy's monkey ass looks far to dumb to be able to fabricate a bomb to me.

Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by gaby(m): 6:43pm On Nov 20, 2006
Saw the news on CNN was sure not convinced i kind of smell a rat here why now all of a sudden, seems to me the new aviation minister is trying to paint himself the almighty saviour and the right person for the job, need to follow the subsequent events unfolding to be convinced beyond any reasonale doubt that this is nothing but a conspiracy,

EFCC to probe bomb scare aboard airlines? shocked

How did we end up with unintelligent men as leaders?
Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by Bolarge(m): 9:37am On Nov 21, 2006
Bleeeeeh!!
Do I sense some smart ass job here?
Now they'd have us believe the other planes were blown up too.Gimme a break!
Nigerians should pls not fall for this huge joke.Anyone who's flown on Nigerian airlines immediately knows we have a lot of work to do. Instead of owning up to gross ineptitude and sanitize the aviation sector,they put some moronic clown up to an act.
It's Act1Scene1;stay tuned for Act1Scene2. grin

Before you point fingers and call others unintelligent or ignorant, you should be sure you know what you're talking about.

Last time I checked, attempting to smuggle explosives onto a plane is classed as terrorism.
Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by frankdelis(m): 1:50pm On Nov 21, 2006
I believe that this forum is for enlightened nigerians. Davidylan's post is a clear case of ignorance.
The man is a terrorist, there's no doubt about that, and if this fact is established, then efcc has the right to investigate.
fani kayode is a trained lawyer, he is intelligent too. Davidylan should ve asked a question about the constitutionality of the minister's pronouncement before talking about who is intelligent and who is not.

What on earth is an Economic and Financial Crimes  Commission doing investigating a terrorism attempt (if proved to be true) ? - Please note the words in bold

EFCC can probe the source of the man's money, if he has any, but it is not for it to investigate the act of terrorism or attempted terrorism. There should be specialised agencies or units for such an investigation.
EFCC does not have the skilled personnel or specialised equipment for such investigations

Let's not make it look as if all Nigerians have lost their education or ability to think intellectually.

Even with the EFCC site displaying that they are indeed mandated to investigate acts of terrorism, you continue to argue?

Have you been through training with the EFCC that you now know what type of equipment or expertise they have?
Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by Freestyl(m): 5:40pm On Nov 21, 2006
They should have announced the list of the pasengers in the plane so we will know really who the man was after.

Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by segoye2(m): 8:48pm On Nov 21, 2006
Men, you are right. I believe is another act of bombing our air crafts again. Meanwhile with the facts that the last air crash we witnessed started in the middle points out to us that it coud be a bomb issue. What happends to their findinds / Report? Have they ditected the cause yet? The Bellview issue, Sosoliso and the host of men loster, WHat is the real cause of the crashes? Is it that we have old machines? Lets stop decieving ourselves and face the fact, All this could be bomb. Only God knows what would have happend to those on board that faithful day the Vampire (what is his name)? Is pretty sad that some persons or group of persons are really deriving pleasure in a national Disaster. , , Even if you- you- you is not gonna board that flight because of what you have done to it, Your relation, family or Anccesstors will, God go Purnish you- you- you 77,000 times.

@Segoye; is all well with you? reading your post can cause someone to think of visiting the psychiatric home.
Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by zexyworm: 11:42am On Nov 22, 2006
Haven't you heard guys?

The "bomb" turned out to be a bunch of fire crackers - nothing more than fireworks delivered to an events company in Abuja.

Illegal cargo, nontheless.

But here you go, the new aviation minister is just another idiot on a chest-beating mission to impress the masses.

It was nothing but FALSE ALARM.

Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by Aggressa(m): 2:43am On Nov 24, 2006
@mariory,
I read it too in Nigerian Tribune online that a Presidential aspirant stated he owns the fire-works which were to be used for his official declaraton in Abuja. If this is true, then those blaming Davidylan above need a rethink. It would clearly be a disgrace to the new minister screaming as if he caught Osama bin Laden in Lagos and to the security at our airports if we can't diferentiate 'knock-outs' from explosives.
Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by frankdelis(m): 1:31pm On Nov 30, 2006
HAVILA,
don't u know that knock-outs are explosives? the investigations will tell us the type of explosive found. but the issue is really if efcc has the right to investigate it.
Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by DeepSoul(f): 6:34pm On Nov 30, 2006
Fine, it turned out 2 be a bunch of "fire crackers".

Question 1. If they were as harmless as being claimed, why did the alleged terrorist refuse 2 open the bags initially when he was being questioned?

Question 2. Why was did he "plant" the bags aboard a plane he ddnt plan to be on? We hear he was gonna get 2 d same destination by road,

Question 3. Why did Fani Kayode give out unconfirmed info? Does he know what effects that could have on Nigeria and her economy?

Final Question. Why was Fani kayode made Aviation Minister?? All the way from Culture & Tourism! The man is a friggin lawyer for chrissakes! What does he know abt aviation?!

Re: Attempt To Smuggle Explosives On Nigerian Plane by segoye2(m): 11:22am On Dec 04, 2006
@ Why are you guys on a public forum a set of junk fellows? I discovered that anywhere I upload my opinion post or an opinion of Big B1, most fellows here just open their dirty mouth to pour out insult on us.

I have made my point clear. make urs too without any malicious comments. If you go by uploading this kind of threads, I swear you can't work in politics because is either you are long dead or no one will vote for you.

On no occation should any one use an odd word on me nomore. am not your baby or someone depending on your money or something, you are not paying for my internet subscribtion or do I depend on you in any course.

Try as much as possible to avoid using odd words and remember to respect everyone in the house.

God save Nigeria
