What happened to Nigerias satellite? Has it been found yet or gone missing again? What was the cost? $300 million/$400?

Benin - Lagos road is crying out for attention
. etc etc.

Nigeria, we never learn. Should that be our immediate priority?

We need body scanners more than satellites. Airport security job in Nigeria will now be very lucrative for men and women who are perverted.

Nigeria is one 'great' country.

Disasters have to happen b4 we profer solutions.
So we never needed this scanner had this incidence not happened.
Just as the VP is just summoning a 'meeting' to 'rescue' the retrenchment situation on the Banks after about 4,000 employees have lost their jobs in the Nations most-engaging sector. Yet yesterday we heard another 800 had joined the un-employed from Oceanic Bank.

In Nigeria, the word PROACTIVE exists but only in written form.

Biuldings will collapse b4 we set up a committee to enforce regulation on the standards of buildings;
People will die in accidents b4 we call for special FEC meetings to approve and award contracts for road rehabilitation;
Cholera outbreak will occur and thousands die b4 we will think of providing portable water for our citizens;
Less than 10% of our students will pass entrance exams b4 there is a call of the overhaul of the educational sector;

The list goes on and on,

We need our own Mandela, Ghandi, Nyerere, Nkurumah, or even Obama, for these times.




We're just giving medicines after death.

Cancer machines- those things are not safe- terrorist will kill us before our time

That exactly is what worries me the more . . .

- I don't have a proof however I can't help but worry that repeated exposure to eletromagnetic radiatino is not good health . . . . even too much light proves harmful to the eyes . . .how much more the other spectrum.

- Which kinds of radiation is being used in those imaging devices . . . is it the same radiation as in MRI or is it closer to Xray machines . . .
Re: Nigeria Airports To Buy 3-d Full Body Scanners by SEFAGO(m): 10:42pm On Dec 31, 2009
^quite likely but i dont know- if someone tells me the radiation i can ascertain if it might have cancerous effects

I refuse to believe that this terrorist attack is not a false flag attack manufactured by the US . . . so attack itself . . .

- How does Al Qieda get access to sophisticated military grade explosive technology. . .

- Yet the normal person in the street cannot sneeze without CIA and FBI knowing . . .

- Yes Umar Farouk probably tried to carry out the attack . . .however the question remains as to the people that were actually pulling the strings from behind the scenes . . .

It seems that Harold Demuren, the head of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority didn't even know that the US had given four scanners to the country. But Ofoyeju Mitchell of Nigeria's National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, told the AP that one of the machines sits in a room near the security checkpoint inside the airport. It was used only on passengers who were profiled as drug traffickers.

In any other country where people are held responsible for their actions, this Deuren guy would have been fired.

Interestingly, the U.S. gave Nigeria 4 full-body scanner in 2008, but Nigeria decided to do with it as they fit. So Nigeria already has scanners and they planning to siphon away large sums of money to buy more? It's even crazier that the top officials for Nigerian aviation claimed that they had no idea about the scanners.

This AP article talks about it, (by the way i didn't post the whole thing b/c its a bit long, but these pieces give enough info)

By JON GAMBRELL, Associated Press Writer Jon Gambrell, Associated Press Writer – Thu Dec 31, 3:31 pm ET
LAGOS, Nigeria – The U.S. gave Nigeria four full-body scanners for its international airports in 2008 to detect explosives and drugs, but none were used on the man suspected trying to blow up a Detroit-bound flight, Nigerian officials say.

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, tracked by cameras through the security check, only went through a metal detector and had his bag X-rayed when he arrived at Nigeria's busiest airport to start his journey, the officials say.

The Soter RS scanners delivers 3-D images that would have shown something hidden under clothing. But a spokesman for the anti-drug agency, which operates the Nigerian machines, told The Associated Press that the one at Lagos airport is used sporadically and only on potential narcotics smugglers.

Even word of the scanners' presence in Nigeria's four main airports apparently hasn't reached top officials, including one responsible for airline safety.

Harold Demuren, the head of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, told reporters Wednesday that his government would buy 3-D full-body scanners for the airports, and insisted there were currently none there.

But on Thursday, Ofoyeju Mitchell of Nigeria's National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, told the AP that one of the machines sits in a room near the security checkpoint in Lagos' often chaotic international airport.

He said they aren't used on every passenger. Instead, drug agents select frequent flyers, travelers heading to and from drug shipment points, and people who seem deceptive or under stress. Nigeria is a major transit point for Afghan heroin and South American cocaine.

Reuben Abati, a columnist at Nigeria's Guardian newspaper, highlighted a different risk factor — a culture of graft and favoritism that allows VIPs to bypass screening.

"Big men and their wives and children are often piloted through security," Abati wrote. "They could go straight to the tarmac to board the aircraft, depending on the scope of their influence. With the power of cash, anything can be taken onto an aircraft in Nigeria."

Yeah, it seems these scanners are highly radioactive. Cancer incorporated. Man, i dont plan to travel very often then.
