The poster failed to include Femi Johnson's Brooking House (28 floors) in Ibadan

Yeah Femi Johnson is tall too!

Another scam.

None of them is going to jail.

Unless maybe, GEJ is no longer in power!

Birds of same feather

The only reason they run abroad for "medical treatment" is to load their

foreign accounts and when they feigning sickness in order to stay away from the law(Political Warfare).

Besides they actually don't need Government money to do that, they just

take advantage of the loopholes and corruption.

The law won't change anything.

It happens when you start hating on others when they are living your dream life!

Meanwhile, spokesman of the group, Abu Qaqa in an email message sent to newsmen written in Hausa language yesterday said that “the country would not have peace until there is 100 per cent implementation of Sharia law in the country as enshrined in the holy Quran as well as immediate release of all our members who were detained and in the custody of security agencies for no just cause”.

He said the group was not satisfied with the report of the Presidential committee on Security in the north on possible negotiation with the federal government, adding that the members were even surprised that the committee told the world, that they have had a meeting with the sect in the course of their investigation, insisting that no committee ever sat with the group.

He dismissed the recommendation of the committee on the involvement of the Sultan of Sokoto, Emir of Bauchi or Abubakar Giro in the negotiation talk saying, “all these people are not respected by the sect members, and could not mediate for them”.

Obviously, the Sultan and Emir are not Muslims, they don't believe in the same Quran and are not Northerners.

Dirty deal gone bad!

Old Unity schools(FGC's, etc) and Military schools(NMS, etc) are experiences I'd have loved my kids to go through.

Too bad the system has been destroyed now.

his father denied that claim. . . . So that isnt a certified reason yet.

You noticed the biased contribution too

What happened to this Useless country called "Nigeria" ?


Why cant you say "Most of the suspect will be freed" ?

So they can come back and continue their game ?

I have said it, "Boko-haram is no threat to Nigerians, it is our government that is using them". They have capture and arrested, yet, they will still release them. The government is just using Nigerians life to play politics.

Boko-haram is a non-issue and a tool our governement is using.

They capture and release because they always pick up innocent aboki illiterates.

These Boko's are smarter and more sophisticated than "we arrested 1200 boko's in a trunck with bombs and AK's".

So igbo's are taking part in the foiled bid?

Fake story!

Go to Primary and secondary schools in Kano and see as non-Muslims do. They may admit you but u must do like them. Let everybody go improve their own schools and adopt any policy. alhajis should open more schools for thir brilliant boys.

I have also lived in Kano,it's not as bad as that.

I was in the boarding house in the north(Sokoto)!

My school had 3chapels(protestants and Catholics segregated) and just one mosque!

And it was peaceful all through my six year stay.

Kellymann:
I think we all should be objective and sensitive in the way we react to issues. The whole brouhaha over Islamic banking has been riddled with so much bigotry and mistrust. Many of us who are die-hard opponents of the principle have developed this kind of mindset based on some of the misrepresentations about Islam we have been exposed to over the years.

Many of us are all of the opinion that anything that has the appellation Islamic means a lot of negative things that misrepresentations have allowed us to ascribe to it.

I am sure this is also fueled by the fact that the issue of Islamic banking was brought up again during the the tenure of a CBN governor who is a Muslim. Some of us calling for the head of Sanusi today I know would have praised him when he stood up against the Senate during their allocation issue.

We should learn to be more tolerant of each other more so at this crucial point of celebrating 51 years of independence. Nigeria is still one today because of the sacrifice of some people to make it one. Let us not all tear it apart with our attitude of always wanting to suspect the other ethnic group, religious group, etc.

Happy Independence y'all! God bless Nigeria

A person with high level of reasoning like yours shouldn't be on this thread.

These story is a fraud! Planted in the media.

Let us see the faces of the innocent people arrested and the so-called weapons.

I am fully in support of CU, Even ahmadu bello university now admits muslims even if they didn't write post utme and give them professional courses, I am fully in support of CU, Even ahmadu bello university now admits muslims even if they didn't write post utme and give them professional courses,

Why do you guys tell all these big lies against the northerners Just to prove a point!!!!!

We haven't heard from BOKO yet.

With MEND threatening to come blow up innocents again.

October 1, 2010 - October 1, 2011- 173 deaths, over 500 wounded.

I'll rather stay in ma house!

In "Otis," the first video from the Kanye West and Jay-Z (a.k.a the Throne) joint
album Watch the Throne, the two hip-hop moguls oversee some unconventional
body work to what appears to be a brand-new Maybach: The German luxury car
-- base sticker price approximately $373,000 for the cheapest model -- gets sliced
and diced with a blowtorch and power saw.

In the first 30 seconds of the clip, the automobile loses its roof and doors and gets
remixed into an open-air Jeep-style vehicle perfect for joyriding around a parking lot
with a quartet of young ladies in the back seat while fireworks blast off, which is exactly
what Jay and Kanye proceed to do in the Spike Jonze-directed video.

MTV News asked an expert to appraise the cost of the damage (or improvements, depending
on your take) to the car, and the price ranged from $20,000 for a quickie job -- just the welding
and painting -- to $150,000 for a fully reinforced frame. Expensive? Sure, but Jay allegedy spent
$250K on a bar tab last night, so it probably didn't break his bank. "The thing is, the value of
that car is nothing now, you couldn't drive it on the street," DUB magazine's Myles Kovacs told MTV.

"It would start malfunctioning bigtime."

Jay-Z and Kanye West are certainly presuming the car is worth far more than "nothing,"
however -- according to a note posted at the end of the video, they're planning to auction
the Frankenbach off for charity: "The vehicle used in this video will be offered up for auction.

Proceeds will be donated towards the East African drought disaster." AllHipHop confirmed the
auction is legit with the rappers' reps. (The group's publicist hasn't yet responded to The Amp's
request to confirm the Maybach is the real deal.) No word how or when the vehicle will be sold
off, but potential buyers should presumably plan to host lavish Watch the Throne listening sessions
in the car rather than go cruising in it.

Blessing in disguise.

His parents just got saved from the claws of a bigger version of Fred Olawale Makanjuola.

Shine your eyes!

;d

You think so?

PointB:
I disagree strongly! MEND is a criminal organisation with ideology; Boko Haram is faceless, terrorist organisation with no ideology.
MEND takes great care to avoid civilian casualty (independence day bombing), while Boko Haram deliberately target clusters of human population for maximum civilian casualty. MEND is reasonable, Boko Haram is Madness!


So sir, I still maintain they are not same, they are markedly different in agenda and approach!

Are you serious?  

OMG!!!! My friends must read this! Copy and paste on ma facebook!    

I simply can't stop laughing!!!!!

ASANIGBO:
“He said: it is true that about 50 armed bandits attacked some banks in Iwo. Ten policemen were on the ground when they arrived and once we got the information, another team was raced to reinforce them. Gun battle ensued and they fled. “We are on their trail and they will soon be arrested. We will also recover our stolen arms. Members of the public should join us by giving us useful information about criminals.”

Do it yourself mehn! You dey share the extorted 20, 20 nairas with members of the public?

Even they were just two robbers, they'll still escape! Useless Cops!

The only thing they know is - "yaaaa inner light"

This kind of scam is not new in Nigeria.

I hope you guys get to ever see your passports again, which I doubt.

Forget the money and forget the scammer, the last you will ever hear of him is being in police possession.

You will keep following the case till you get fed up.

They know how to settle themselves.

Dust up yourselves and move on!

And Pedro Policemen still came to Okuneye Street shooting live bullets to disperse an already angry crowd!

When they didn't achieve, they just drove away! It was so funny! The victims were not smiling at all!

Hi guys and gals. I wish everyone a happy new year. My name is Abayomi Aje. Many who have been following me for some time will know [b]I am an internet marketer and a website flipper and a ex yahoo boy [/b]who gave up yahoo yahoo because of a girl he so much love.

I am writing this note because of the so many messages I have gotten from people asking me to organize seminars that they can attend so as to learn internet marketing and site flipping.

Troy Davis's last hours


Strapped to a gurney, and at the centre of raging international controversy, Troy Davis died the way he has spent the past 22 years: still vigorously protesting his innocence. The death row prisoner at the centre of one of the most disputed cases in American legal history lost his long-running legal battle despite desperate late efforts by his lawyers.

The 42-year-old convicted murderer was given a lethal injection half an hour after the US Supreme Court rejected his final request for a stay of execution on Tuesday. Fifteen minutes later, at 11.08pm (4.08am GMT), he was officially pronounced dead. A coroner's van later hauled his body away from the Georgia State Diagnostic Prison, near the town of Jackson.

Addressing some of his last words to the family of the victim, Mark MacPhail, who were in the viewing gallery, Davis lifted his head as needles were inserted into his arm, and insisted, as he always has done, that he was not responsible for killing the young, off-duty police officer.

“I am innocent. The incident that happened that night was not my fault,” he said, according to the four US media representatives who attended. “I personally did not have a gun. I was not the one who took the life of your father, son, brother.”

Davis then turned to prison officials. “For those about to take my life, may God have mercy on your souls. May God bless your souls.”

Those were his final words. As the lethal drugs worked their way into his system, Davis began blinking rapidly. Then he squeezed them tightly shut. After that, a curtain was drawn over the window which separated the viewing area from the execution chamber.

It was a grisly end to a case which has sparked international outrage, and the condemnation of organisations as varied as[b] the European Union, Amnesty International, the Catholic Church, and the National Association for the Advancement of Coloured People. Over a million people, from around the world, signed a petition calling for Davis to be spared.[/b]

A crowd of 700 supporters had gathered at Georgia State Diagnostic Prison, near the town of Jackson, where the execution chamber is located. They greeted confirmation of his death by crying, holding hands, and praying, in near silence. A smaller group of roughly 10 counter-protesters cheered.

Lawyers for Davis spent the final day of his life making increasingly frantic efforts to call a halt to proceedings. The Georgia Superior Court and Georgia Supreme Court both refused to issue a stay of execution, which had been previously scheduled and then cancelled four times in recent years, in circumstances which are said by psychologists to have amounted to torture.

For a time, it looked like the US Supreme Court might intervene, as it did two years ago, issuing last-minute instructions for Georgia's legal system to reconsider Davis's conviction. This time, the highest court in the land delayed his execution - originally scheduled for 7pm - for four hours. But it ultimately decided not to make a second intervention in the case. No reason for that decision was cited.

Earlier, prison authorities had refused to let Davis take a polygraph test which was intended to help keep his case alive in the months and years to come. His attorney Stephen Marsh, who was turned away at the gate of the facility, told reporters: “We came here to try and prove Mr Davis is innocent and unfortunately we were denied that opportunity.”

Several hours before the execution, the condemned man's pastor, the Rev Raphael Warnock, was also prevented from paying him a visit during his final hours. No explanation was given. “We wanted to do a pastoral visit, to offer comfort and last rites if you will, to pray,” he said. “It's another insult to this injustice.”

Davis turned down the opportunity to choose a special last meal. He was therefore presented with the prison's standard-issue dinner: grilled cheeseburgers, oven-browned potatoes, baked beans, coleslaw, cookies and a grape drink.

The execution came 20 years after Davis was found guilty of the murder of MacPhail. The case has been in and out of court ever since, as increasing doubts were cast on his conviction. The Pope, the former President Jimmy Carter and a host of public figures have spoken out against his conviction.

They say the case represents a textbook example of the flaws of the US capital punishment system.

And it carries political heat because he was a black man from the Deep South, where a disproportionate number of executed criminals hail from ethnic minorities.

Supporters believe Davis was all-too-hastily arrested and charged, by white police officers who were angered by the killing of one of their own and who leapt to conclusions regarding his guilt. After his death, lawyers for Davis described his killing as a “legal lynching” saying the execution was “racially bigoted”. [/b]They told reporters: “In the state of Georgia 48.4 percent of people on death row this morning were black males, and in Georgia they make up no more than 15 percent of the population.”

With this in mind, thousands of demonstrators spent Tuesday in Atlanta, in a mood which grew increasingly angry as the execution time approached. At one point, riot police were deployed, and helicopters took to the air. But no violence was reported.
[b]
Polls show that 57 percent of Americans believe Davis is innocent, and there is a school of thought that his execution could herald a tipping point in public attitudes to the death penalty.

The US currently executes more people than any country in the world except China, Iran, North Korea and Yemen. Although just over 60 percent of the public still support capital punishment, that number appears to have been slowly falling since the 1990s.

DNA technology has allowed several death row inmates to be exonerated in recent years, denting faith in the system.

A final message to supporters of Davis came from Edward Dubose, a member of the Georgia NAACP who spoke to the condemned man during the afternoon. “Troy wanted me to let you know - keep the faith. The fight is bigger than him , The death penalty in this country needs to end. They call it execution; we call it murder.”

The last day - 09.00-15.00

Davis is allowed visitors for the last time.

16.00

He declines the opportunity to choose his final meal. Prison staff give him a standard prison meal of cheeseburgers, potatoes, baked beans, coleslaw, biscuits and a grape-flavoured drink.

18.00

Those chosen to witness the execution enter Jackson's Diagnostic and Classification Prison. Around 700 people, mostly supporters of Davis, stand outside.

19.00

As the time originally scheduled for the execution passes, it becomes apparent that the US Supreme Court has intervened - prompting cheers from the crowd outside the prison.

22.15

After more than three hours, hopes of a postponement or reprieve are dashed when the court rules that the execution will go ahead.

22.30

“Y'all ready?” a correctional officer asks the five reporters chosen to witness the execution. Davis is strapped to the gurney in the death chamber and a warden reads the execution order. Davis lifts his head and uses his last words to protest his innocence to the relatives of the murdered police officer Mark MacPhail. He asks his own family to “keep the faith” and asks God to have mercy on the souls of the medical staff about to put him to death.

23.08

Around 14 minutes after the injection is administered, Troy Davis is declared dead. -

I hope electrical's Dr Aliu is not on that list! He doesn't deserve it!

Africa's Finest!!!!!
