A responsive and responsible government

Explorers, when I saw this thread, I thought u were wrong for the first time ever! Months and not weeks. But as usual.... U ttooo much. Thanks for consistently giving us a taste of knowledge back to back

Oh my goodness! Jesu oko ijo! Three whole months in that dark cave! Whew! May the echoes of love and hope never depart from them. Haa!

My prayers were not in vain after all.Thank You Jesus!

lastempero:
When u trust and believe in your country,those kids know that their govt we definitely come for them,the reverse is the case here.
Was watching it on aljazeera.

They were leaving marks behind, dropping their belongings, and writing on the walls.

They believed and trusted their system.

There will be lights, supplies, food, water and two doctors volunteer to stay with them.

There also trying to digging them out from above, on the mountain, if it works.

The new video, posted this morning by the Thai Navy SEALs, shows the boys looking more relaxed than the first video, which emerged at the time they were found by British divers, on Monday night.

In the video, the boys clasp their hands together in a Thai greeting, introduce themselves and thank their rescuers.

They seem calm and at one point break into laughter when one boy says he got missed out when they were going around and introducing themselves.


The video, which goes for two minutes, shows a man wearing a wetsuit with a Royal Thai jumper over the top, applying what looks like iodine to the boys feet and legs.

The camera pans around the group, showing some of the boys asleep in the cave, others smile and pull faces at the camera.

The boys are still trapped in the cave, but now have food, blankets and are being kept company by Thai Navy SEALs.




Family members of the 12 boys and their soccer coach watch a video clip of 12 boys on television after they were found alive, in Mae Sai, Chiang Rai province.

This is so touching...

If not for USA, UK and Israel these boys would be dead soon muxh respect to them unlike Russia, Canada, or China, world powers but show no love

Thai police take a break for breakfast as rescue operations continue for 12 boys and their coach trapped at the Tham Luang cave.

Thai soldiers carry supplies as they walk down the hill leading up to Tham Luang cave as rescue operations continue for 12 boys and their coach.


Workers bring supplies for the trapped boys, who were trapped inside when heavy rains flooded the cave.

A desperate search for them drew assistance from experts around the globe.

If only drillings can pave a way for these kids.... Till October why these sef Waka go this long. Don't they know that if they were Nigerian kids, dem for Don dey lay wreaths for them, and their governor's own go be the most eye catching?

International rescue team are on the mountain for days, checking if digging will work.

But the challenge is the distance from the top of the mountain down to the cave, about half a mile.



Like dominique said, the kids are not children of politicians or millionaires.


These boys are just ordinary citizens living in a local town in the country, they're children of nobody, maybe parents are teachers or artisans, and the country stood still because of them.


If we're to estimate how much Thai government had spent on this search and rescue mission over the two weeks, i can guess $1million.


More than two Giant generator set are running 247 to power the cave, about two different command centres set up in the cave, many pumping machines are running 247, hundreds of oxygen tanks, fueling the choppers/trucks that are flying and delivering supplies, and so on.


What about the will and the commitment of the over 1,000 men, both local and foreigners working 24hrs.


I doubt if my country can do this to rescue 13 ordinary citizens, one person will just come out and make a statement that the cave has collapsed.

The coach Ekkapol Chantawong 25 has reportedly been teaching the boys to meditate to help keep them calm in the cave.

While efforts to pump out floodwaters are continuing, some Thai officials have indicated that heavy rains forecast for this weekend could force them to decide the boys should swim and dive out using the same complicated route of narrow passageways through which their rescuers entered.

Australian Federal Police (AFP) Specialist Response Group (SRG) divers continue to assist the complex and ongoing cave rescue operation underway in Chiang Rai, Thailand.

Australian Federal Police and Defense Force personnel talk each other near a cave where 12 boys and their soccer coach are trapped.


Family members pass time near the Tham Luang cave complex, where members of an under-16 soccer team and their coach have been found alive.

Looking more relaxed, the boys aged 11 to 16 told rescuers they have heard dogs barking, roosters crowing and children playing despite being 800 metres underground.

I'm beginning to feel more like international help came aplenty for these chibok girls issue but they weren't encouraged enough. cos almost 7different top countries are at this cave. Nawa o.


rock blasting may be an option. but it's dangerous I think. that drilling distance is damn far....

About three countries came for chibok girls then, US was one.

They flew their drones over sambisa forest searching for the girls. One of the country said the abduction was kind of political.
Just like inviting you to my house to help find what am hiding.

They cant blast it.

Rawlings Effect. we need something like that in this country. so sad.


I doubt most of these military guys in naija are not skilled in situations management. They seem eager to pass the idea that it's force force and more force. If one of these boys become Prime Minister tomorrow now, I won't be surprised. his people has just shown him the way to ensure he serves his fatherland without second thoughts.

But wetin dem find go there in the first place? The coach was very silly!

It is very easy to kill most of this Nigerian saboteurs... gas them with a poisonous, odorless and colourless gas... anywhere they gather, just get someone with an electronic device that can handle it.

The device will look like a harmless tool... controlled with remote. Put it inside the room where they are gathered and once they are settled, activate it to open. They will all inhale and die one by one.

There is no need for guns or bombs. With China, it can be manufactured and done.. while the chemical will be produced in Nigeria. Someone willing to get this done can be found in the DARK WEB...

Trust me, it can be done.
