Tenkobos:
The op mentioned how the army killed about 100 militants and I was wondering why they haven't done that to the herdsmen that are destroying Benue.

May Lagos is more important than Benue

More like 12 points agenda., watever the case, we are watching cos things getting messier

one thing is missing in the treaty, the freedom to graze in the presidential Villa

INVADE THE LAND OF THE DEAD !

vivvianne:
The same 'military' that got chased into cameroon by a bunch of emaciated fanatics. Without air support from the airforce, the nigerian army is useless.

how useful is ur own army,Nigeria may need it at dis point.
it isn't enough for u to just sit in d comfort of ur room and type trash, whereas,some body else is out there risking his or her life so u can have a place u call a country.

Acidosis:
The Dangotes and other Tomato paste manufacturers have bought it all. They have closer proximity to the farmers.

Why would farmers bring their tomatoes to us in Lagos, Ogun, etc., when the likes of Dangotes are willing to buy it all in the North? Remember, the farmers & other wholesale channels won't incur the exorbitant transportation fees, agbero dues, local govt dues, NURTW levies, Nigerian Police fee, Vigilante money, States Internal Revenue levy, Mile 12 Market association levy, Tinubu levy, Lagos State Tax, fuel @N140/litre, just to name a few.

When the world told you guys that Nigeria is the worst place to do business on earth, una think say na joke abi?

Meanwhile, where are the Agricultural graduates, Professors, etc.?

Nigeria actually have more Agric lecturers than real farmers

We have more Colleges, Schools and Faculties of Agriculture than Tomato plantation.

We are simply paying for the elongated redundancy, years of intellectual idleness, and the over dependency on oil.

We neva see anything.

Wouldn't you rather sell your fresh tomato to a serious entrepreneur up north who owns a paste industry than bring it down south?

Lest I forget, the little tomatoes around were imported from Cameroon. Majority of the serious farmers we have in Nigeria have been displaced by Boko Haram up North, and killer herds men in Agatu, Benue state.

Valid points!
sadly, the recent hike in the pump price of fuel going to worsen the already harsh condition

I enjoyed it

This is what you get when governance is based on propaganda

these are MEN

heavenet:
She can take Celebrex or arthrotec
those are anagelsics particularly suitable for ulcer patients. in addition to that get her a knee support. cheers.

Thanks you sir, she also has an history of asthma

Hmmm,the Indians have taken over the steel industry in Nigeria.
I hope this administration will address this matter with the urgency it deserve.
The oil and gas industry is almost dead , its should be time for diversification of the economy.
Well OP,I salute your courage.

Why is this piece not making fp?
Our case is gradually becoming that of the Zimbabwean dollar.
More disturbing,is the fact that an average Nigerian isn't bordered, the elite and the ruling class are either comfortable with their ill-gotten wealth or bereave if ideas, and so, the story continues for the naira

Nigerians are plain stupid.
GEJ was a colossal failure as a president and a leader. Some people were gasconading about the international awards he is winning in recent times as if awards mean anything. That's the job of PR firms to find hungry, mushroom organizations to give out awards in an effort to launder a battered image. Guess what? They make millions of dollars doing it. They are not doing it for free.

If international awards mean that much, Kaitlyn Jenner wouldnt win "Woman of the Year" award for sex change surgeries. It takes a couple of people to make a decision on who wins the awards depending on what agenda they are pushing. $10k will get anyone a decent award. But heck! Throw an American ( especially a Caucasian) in the picture and Nigerians will go gaga. That's the same thwarted mentality of inferiority complex that made Rochas put a billboard with Obama in Owerri. A typical African fellow always needs the rubber stamp approval of whites to feel complete.

Don't worry man, since you don't value international awards, we will nominate you for your village award,considering your effort on Nairaland.

Mum is in pain,rheumatoid on her left knee is the cause,she is been adviced not to take ibuprofen cos she is has ulcer. what advised do you have
for the interim?

United States Legally Sold Weapons To Over 2000 Terrorists In Ten Years – Report
7 HOURS AGO by OLUJIDE WITH AGENCY REPORTS

With the increase in terrorists attacks across the world leading to massive destruction of lives and properties, the question asked is how these terrorists have been able to pull off these in spite of very tight gun/weapon controls in some of these countries.

The United States of America is daily battling with controlling the usage of guns by citizens whereby a gun-wielding individual will simply cock his gun and massacre as many people as he can. It’s an open secret that known and suspected terrorists are allowed to purchase firearms under federal laws in the United States.

In a report by the Washington Post, the question asked is how the terrorists who attacked Paris on Friday got their weapons despite France strict gun laws. In the report, it’s said they may have turned to black market sources. How ‘successful’ is the black market? How poorly controlled can the black market be?

Given France’s strict gun laws, the terrorists who attacked Paris on Friday may have turned to black market sources for the weapons they used. But in the United States, known and suspected terrorists are allowed to purchase firearms under federal law.

“Membership in a terrorist organization does not prohibit a person from possessing firearms or explosives under current federal law,” the Government Accountability Office concluded in 2010. The law prohibits felons, fugitives, drug addicts and domestic abusers from purchasing a firearm in the United States. But people on the FBI’s consolidated terrorist watchlist — typically placed there when there is “reasonable suspicion” that they are a known or suspected terrorist — can freely purchase handguns or assault-style rifles.

And, as the GAO found, a number of them do: Between 2004 and 2014, suspected terrorists attempted to purchase guns from American dealers at least 2,233 times. And in 2,043 of those cases — 91 percent of the time — they succeeded. There are about 700,000 people on the watch-list — a point that civil libertarians have made to underscore that many on the list may be family members or acquaintances of people with potential terrorist connections.

That total number is a floor, since the 2011 and 2012 numbers include only partial data because of a programming error that the FBI subsequently fixed, according to the GAO. Overall, looking back toward 2007, the annual number of attempted gun purchases by terror suspects has generally held steady and may be declining slightly year-over-year.

Lawmakers have tried to stop this from happening. Bills have been introduced in Congress to do just that, going as far back as 2007 at the behest of then-Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Rep. Peter T. King (R-N.Y.) introduced a bill to do that earlier this year. The “Denying Firearms and Explosives to Dangerous Terrorists Act of 2015” would prevent several hundred gun purchases by suspected terrorists each year, and it includes provisions to let people challenge a denial if they believe they were placed on the watchlist in error.

But these bills have rarely made it out of committee, in part due to vehement opposition from the National Rifle Association and its allies in Congress. The NRA objected to earlier versions of the bill, saying they were “aimed primarily at law-abiding American gun owners,” that “prohibiting the possession of firearms doesn’t stop criminals from illegally acquiring them,” and that the bills were “sponsored by gun control extremists.”

I reached out to the NRA to find out if they were similarly opposed to this year’s Feinstein/King bill but they have not yet responded. This piece will be updated if they do. A 2012 survey conducted by conservative pollster Frank Luntz, for pro-gun-control group Everytown USA, found that 76 percent of American gun owners, including 71 percent of NRA members, supported prohibiting people on the terror watchlist from buying guns.
The biggest knock against the proposed legislation is perhaps that the FBI’s watchlist is an imperfect tool for assessing an individual’s terror threat. Civil libertarians warn that the watchlist has ballooned in size to nearly 700,000 individuals in recent years. Many of those people may simply be family members, acquaintances or people only marginally acquainted with individuals who actually belong to terror groups. The NRA and its allies are worried that perfectly law-abiding people may end up on a watchlist and be unable to purchase a gun.
