" Its design in comparable with the best in the world", how is the mighty fallen? Now we borrow money from China for loco train and railway transport that the elite would not condescend to use, that's if it will eventually come to fruition, and we call that transformation.

Nigeria releases detained British Airliner .[/size]

The British Caledonian airliner was seized by the Nigerian military authorities in reprisal for the detention of a Nigerian Airways Boeing 707 freighter at Stansted Airport, near London.

Umaru Dikko, a former transport minister, was found drugged inside a wooden crate, bound for Nigeria, with one of his abductors.The cargo, labelled 'Diplomatic Baggage', was opened after suspicious customs officers contacted Scotland Yard.A Nigerian agent was reported to have been arrested along with two Israeli mercenaries.Dikko was placed in hospital under armed guard to recover from the effects of the drugs.Police searched the Nigerian airliner before it was allowed to return to Lagos.

The Lagos Authorities, while denying any participation in the kidnap attempt, would not allow the British Caledonian airliner to leave Nigeria until their aircraft at Stansted was released.



So na Buhari teach 'jack bauer' that thing? Omo see film, when Nigeria's head was there. Sweet memories, thanks GenBuhari.

Nigerian court acquits American woman of illegally exporting oil from Nigeria[/size]

Lagos, Nigeria (AP) - A military court  on Wednesay acqutted American businesswoman Marie McBroom of illegally exporting oil from Nigeria. Had she been convicted she could have been executed by a firing squad.
Mrs McBroom, who pleaded innocent to all six counts of the charge, had been in jail for a year and was freed shortly after the acquittal. She went to the U.S> Embassy and called her daughter in New York City.
Dana McBroom Manno said her mother "sounds great. She sounds in very good spirits," and planned to leave Nigeria very soon, perhaps today.

The 59-year-old businessswoman from Jersey City,N.J/, was the first foreigner acquitted of offenses related to Nigeria's petroleum industry by military tribunals established after a coup ousted the civilian government Dec. 31. 1983. A Spanish sea captain has been sentenced to death, and his government is appealing for mercy.






Oh booyeaa, no nonsense. One reason the corrupt rich investors in our country will do all they can to stop Buhari. May God give us the best.

@Revolutnz
Thanks for your comments, it is very much appreciated.

Babangida devalued Naira by a massive 2,200% , which means that whilst we were able to get $1.13 for our Naira during Buhari's era, after Babangida's devaluation, the Naira could only fetch $0.04 cents, rendering the Naira effectively worthless and plunging the Nigerian masses into hardship and poverty that we are suffering today.

IBB is claiming sainthood today, and our president Jonathan says IBB is his father.

When it comes to political matters I have always prefer to be Neutral, I am still.However,a reflection on Nigerian's political history has shown and continues to show a rivalry between the Hausas-Fulanis and the Igbos,which started immediately after Nigeria's independence from the British.The several coups and counter coups has always been between these two ethic tribes. The Yorubas often find themselves in between, having to take sides each time,it could also be said that the civil war was between the Hausas-Fulanis and the igbo - considering the antecedence that led to the war - even though the Yorubas had to take part just to stay as one Nigeria as preached by the Northerners. Yorubas find themselves playing a role that tries to promote unity and equitability. General Obasanjo,the only Yoruba Man to hold a high office as Military Head of State and President played such role. When shagari became president,Alex Ekueme,an igbo was the Vice president. When Yardua was President, the Vice President was an ijo,Goodluck Jonathan.The bitterness of the Igbos today is that,why has an igbo man not become a president. The political developments in Nigeria keeps creating a situation where the Igbos keeps getting sidetracked. Until Nigeria's political situation stabilizes,an Igbo man may not hold the office of the President of Nigeria. I sometimes wonder if this situation was deliberately put in place or continued to be promoted by some powers that be,only time will tell.
