Accursed , Tinubu as the report suggest is responding to a rumour / Beer parlour talk out there just like GEJ "The RETARDEEN" has responded to Wikileak Beer parlour talks of recent. It isnt out of place and Tinubu as far as this issue is concerned is in line.

uche92:
@beaf you are very silly and ignorant, one of the lazy dull nugerians who are cpontent to be brainwashed by mediia. This is not what our nationists fought for to be recolonised but youb are free to go buy foreign citizenship so you can become like the westerners who are slaves to their own govt.

chuks01:
big lie, i wonder why ribadu denied the case maybe that is his leverage to keep gej in check not to come after him

werepeLeri:
It said: “in particular, the sweeping condemnation of the president by the Action Congress of Nigeria smacks of confusion, mischief and, indeed, desperate political opportunism to deflect attention from the barrage of integrity crisis facing the leaders of the ACN.

Absolutely a very wrong move by OBJ.
You must not negotiate with a terrorist under all circumstances

In general, leaders are confronted with challenges and opportunities that are extremely dynamic and complex, the tough part of it all is making critical decisions with absolutely incomplete information. This is why they are called leaders, why we all look up to them, why they are elected to their various important positions and why they should be leaders.
But in my country, things are seen and done differently; and this is why we call our leaders looters.

Obasanjo again has made a despicable move that will only add to the mess already on ground.
This type of move will send a wrong message not only to Boko Haram group but also to other vicious groups (copycats) out there. Negotiation is a clear indication of weakness; you just don't do it, at least not this way.
OBJ should have realized that negotiation with this type of terrorist entails real costs we cannot afford.

OBJ has simply sold the country to the Boko Haram at a very cheap price. Mark it down, this group is gaining confidence by OBJ's visit, they feel that their actions have been been justified. They will strike again.

You do not negotiate with terrorist
You do not give them any positive attention
You do not embrace any of their premises
You do not sit with them.
You do not let them notice your weakness.

United stated leaders didn't just put these rules together, they've don't their home work extensively. If you don't go by these rules you will pay.
Mark it down, OBJ's move will not solve anything, but only encourage this group to go crazy whenever they feel like it, and keep in mind that the Delta connection (militants) is also watching.

What Nigerian government should have done:
They should have secretly invited the currently leader of this terrorist group and strike a closed door deal with him. (OR) they should have sent a neutral representative to discover the best way to settle the matter with the current leader of this group. But as a former president or a current president, you absolutely do not meet with any kind of terrorist group, (especially with a terrorist group who has killed close to 1000 innocent citizens)
Jonathan has no brain and OBJ's brain is also still missing.

IBB will never have made such a fo0lish and selfish move.
I called it selfish move because OBJ has only made this move simply to become relevant once again.

There is nothing better for any nation than to have a president that has common sense and can think effectively on his own.

Sorry, I totally disagree with the move.

Former Lagos State Governor Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu yesterday criticised the suspension of Court of Appeal President Justice Isa Ayo Salami.

[size=14pt]He also described his alleged sponsorship of the Islamic fundamentalist sect Boko Harm as politically motivated.[/size]

He said those behind the allegation are bent on destroying the reputation of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN). Tinubu is the national leader of the ACN.

Tinubu spoke at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos yesterday on his way out of the country.

He described the suspension of Justice Salami as the worst thing to have happened to the judiciary, which he said should be the bastion of democracy. He said the action is a gross violation of constitutional democracy.

Tinubu explained that the suspension of Justice Salami without recourse to the Council of State is enough evidence that the judiciary has been infiltrated by the executive.

He promised to speak comprehensively on the Justice Salami issue later, saying: "They can hurriedly implement National Judicial Council recommendation, without going to the Council of State. I will speak on the issue adequately, not off the cuff. My position will be more documented."

Tinubu, who said he is unperturbed by his alleged link to Boko Haram, explained that as a believer in the sanctity of human life, he will not support such callous killings as being unleashed by the Boko Haram in the name of religion.

He, however, asked the Federal Government to, as a matter of urgency, investigate the reasons why Boko Haram members are aggrieved.

He said if the root cause of the Boko Haram crisis is not unravelled, more extremist groups could spring up.

The former governor urged the government to investigate the circumstances behind the summary execution of Boko Haram leader Mohammed Yusuf, saying if there is no justice, it will be difficult to stamp out the problems arising from the challenge.

[b]Tinubu said:" The allegation that I am sponsoring Boko Haram is a very serious allegation. That is very malicious and damaging. It is a very serious rumour. I cannot be involved in such a heinous act because I believe in the secularity of Nigeria; remember, my wife is a Deaconess. So, I cannot be involved in such an evil act.

"I cannot be involved in sponsoring Boko Haram, I believe in the rule of law, in all the battles I have confronted, I know how I have been committed to the rule of law. I always head for the court. I am convinced that it is politically motivated, from those who have failed to deliver good governance to Nigeria. I believe this country must strive for freedom, liberty and the inalienable right of individuals.

"If you talk about Boko Haram, you cannot examine one side alone; government must look at all the sides, and ask, ‘what is the genesis of Boko Haram? How did it start? Was it imported?’ Add everything to these with injustice. The leadership of Nigeria did not handle this matter properly from the beginning. Did it just spring like locust? It all started gradually. What happened to the leader of Boko Haram, that was arrested, handed over to the police, but was summarily executed?

"The military personnel that apprehended him do not have the right to prosecute him; they handed him over to the police whose men allegedly killed him, without interrogating him. Why didn’t the police try to purge him of the reason why he was involved in the killings? They did not take him to the court; we all saw it. To every action, there is a reaction. "Government has to go back to do justice. This is what happens when justice is missing. That is why the lawyers say justice must not only be done, but must be seen to have been done."

Tinubu advised the government to find the cause of the Boko Haram crisis by "addressing all the anger in the society and engaging leadership at all levels, in particular prominent leaders to find a way to appeal to the promoters of Boko Haram, and investigate the theory that al Quaeda has infiltrated Boko Haram, and examine ourselves again". [/b]

Tinubu went on: "I’m at liberty to express how I feel about what happens in Nigeria. Because I lead the major opposition party in Nigeria, the ACN, I speak on principle. I respect the rule of law; wherever there is violation, I will speak my mind, and join the agitation, in any form. They won’t like it because the ACN is getting larger, the leader is getting more influential. So, let us stop him, that is it.

"He has access to America, Europe, he has freedom, let us link him with Boko Haram, which is linked to al-Qaeda, the enemy of the West, so that they will deny him of liberty. That is what they want to do, they want to get my name off Immigration. They stopped me before, when they made the allegation that I was involved in money laundering."

"I have my liberty, we cannot swallow hook line and sinker the lies of these dangerous people."

what is wrong with public school student scoring the highest mark?

PhysicsQED:
Thanks.

If beni is interpreted as water (although that's probably incorrect), it could mean "small water" (little water). I'm really intrigued by the name, though and I would like to hear from an Ijaw how the name switched from Kala-Beni to Alagbariye or why Alabgariye had that nickname/alias.

^^yes that's what you insinuated bro, read it again:

now i am safe to say that the head of the FIA that victimized Senna was NOT into nazi shows!

[size=14pt]Schumacher should have been penalised – Daly[/size]
Published: 14/09/11, 11:04AM

Former Formula 1 driver Derek Daly, who was part of the FIA-appointed stewards’ panel at Monza, says he now believes Michael Schumacher should have been penalised for the blocking tactics he used trying to keep Lewis Hamilton at bay during the Italian Grand Prix.

Schumacher and Hamilton had a long and fierce battle – initially for third place and then for fourth after Jenson Button moved ahead – which lasted from the restart on lap four all the way to lap 27, when Hamilton finally made a pass stick.

In the course of the duel Schumacher became increasingly muscular in his defensive tactics, until he was advised by team principal Ross Brawn over the radio to leave Hamilton more racing room following a warning to the Mercedes pit wall from FIA race director Charlie Whiting.

Schumacher repeatedly made the one permitted move to the inside of the track to keep the door closed on the run to the Ascari chicane, and then would move back to the outside just before the braking area to line up for the corner, and did the same thing on the short straight between the second chicane and the Lesmo corners on lap 20.

There was also a tense moment on lap 16 when Schumacher squeezed Hamilton onto the grass in the Curva Grande as the McLaren started to pull alongside turning into the 180mph flat-out bend.

Hamilton chose not to criticise the seven-time world champion afterwards, and Schumacher received no official censure from the stewards.

But in a statement released on Tuesday, Daly – who was the driver representative in the stewards’ office for the Monza weekend – says he has reviewed Schumacher’s driving and now believes the “blatant double block” at Lesmo on lap 20 warranted a drive-through penalty.

“On lap 20, race director Charlie Whiting asked the stewards to look at an incident between Felipe Massa and Jarno Trulli at the second chicane,” said Daly.

“While looking at the slow-motion video of this incident, I missed the Schumacher/Hamilton incident that happened at that moment.

“When I looked at it again at home, I believe that Schumacher should have been given a drive-though penalty.

“He was warned repeatedly and this style of driving is not what you want the future generation of drivers to perfect.

“We as stewards probably let Charlie down with this one.”

For many years the limits of acceptable defensive driving in F1 were a matter of etiquette rather than strict rules.

But Article 20.2 of the 2011 FIA sporting regulations states that “manoeuvres liable to hinder other drivers, such as more than one change of direction to defend a position, deliberate crowding of a car beyond the edge of the track or any other abnormal change of direction, are not permitted”.

However there is some debate about whether the ‘one move’ element of this rule allows a driver to blend back onto the racing line before a corner following an earlier blocking move to the inside. Schumacher’s lap 20 move was an extreme case in point because the short straight between the Roggia chicane and the first Lesmo accentuated the ‘zig-zag’ effect.

Daly’s contention that it constituted a “blatant double block” shows that, for him at least, a strict interpretation of the one-move rule should apply.

I was just wondering whether there was some deeper meaning behind it. I thought that beni might be bene (which apparently means water in Ijaw). But I"m not sure. And I still wouldn't know what Kala meant.

I read this same basic account elsewhere earlier:

http://www.ijawland.com/history-and-culture/190-ibani-bonny-a-opobo-ibe-.html

And I was curious about how Kala-Beni became Alagbariye or vice versa, what the name Kala-Beni meant in Ijaw.
