Nasri100: Yeah i know '' Its a mistake '' you made a good point...It is God and not Gawd** but what if he meant something else huh?

Actually, 'it's ' is the right expression and not 'its'. The chap that made the 'Gawd' correction I doubt had any intention of making mockery of the the english used by the poster of that comment...He was rather trying to point out how we easily desecrate things relating to religion and God. So, piss off with your gormless correction.

FXKing2012: Another great Igbo man doing Nigeria proud out there.

Nigeria shld be grateful to such Igbo men and women as Okonjo Iweala, Ezekwesili, Prof Chinue Achebe, Prof Maurice Iwu, Don Jazzy, Chidinma, P.Square, Flavour etc etc for for laundering the image of Nigeria.

Doing who proud? Im an Igbo man and I will never accept Iwu as an Igbo great. That man is a disgrace to the Ibo nation.

bigass: This shame all those who call Fashola an ethnic bigot. This woman is not a yoruba woman. But she got 4.5million from a yoruba gov.
Eko oni baje ooo

What is it that Nigerians have with ethnicity? Must you raise such an issue? Why are we given to nonsensical platitudes. On the surface one may think youre commending Fashola for his nationalistic outlook, but in essence you are just tryng to raise the divisive ethnic debate. I would not be given to your rather shitty and gormless piece.

Aizebioje: Ok like was this guy married with kids when he was getting 90k nd the commission from the part time job?
I don't know but 90k as at 2004/2005 and even today seems ok for any single man living in NIGERIA!
He's just greedy and I say burn Him with any of the finished products of the Oil He Vandalized!

Burn him? I can't believe the level of savagery in this country.

Dogbeji2: Uduaghan working tirelessly to deliver on his three point agenda. Who can sustain this tempo after him? The man works from Monday to Sunday and has no time for leisure .

Sorry,do you live with him?

Cool Kizzy: do it, dont invite the press, allow God to bless u and forget the people's praises.

Its still far better to give under the watch of the press than not giving at all. Moreover, as a celebrity people naturally want to emulate you. By giving under the camera he/she would be encouraging fans and other celebrities to follow suit.

Hungry africans kicking against GM food. What a paradox...yet they are quick to ask this same europeans for foreign aids in the form of money and food. GM food is the future; the earlier we adopt it, the better for us.

And who are you to talk about her sins?....Instead of consoling the family of the bereaved, you're spewing your insensitive garbage here. Aturu awusa.

bknight: Maybe someone can finally come with the manual on how to operate d once efficient machine called torres, afterall.

hmmmm....even with 50 Benitezs, I don't think Torres will regain his liverpool form. Initially the complaint was that chelsea didnt have creative players to give him good passes.Chelsea had to bring in the likes of mata,hazard and oscar,yet that didnt solve the problem. At a time even, they said Drogba's presence in the team was unsettling him-which partly led to Drogba's departure. Now they want to bring Benitez to help him regain his confidence. I honestly doubt if this will work. Torres has simply lost it.

Reading the comments here and the ones on Sahara reporter ,i shake my head in pity to see how stupid Nigerians have become.They now suffer from the Stockholm syndrome.They have lost touch with reality and common sense.

You die the very day you lose your empathy. Remember that son. The so called slave masters you're referring to are mostly people that have lost the ability to empathize with others, and you sure don't want all of us to be like them...It's a vicious cycle son.

GidiMovies: ^^^ pictures are for evidence.

3rd to comment. Good week ahead!!!!

Third to comment, and so? Dumbo.

I know of Fabian Osuji, the erstwhile minister. I also know Wilfred Osuji, the burgeoning professional footballer.Also familiar to me is judge Chile Eboe Osuji, a legal luminary with the ICC.Who the heck is Thomas Osuji? I suppose he is just another attention seeking professor.

Tampons....(ALWAYS sanitary pad)

ogugua88: Seriously lol. "Anti-Christ" Obama rushed to New Jersey and New York and activated emergency responses, including over 20 million gallons of fuel, to be dispersed to ravaged sites affected by Hurricane Sandy. A normal leader, such as GEJ, spends his time condemning, promising to bring perpetrators to book, and visits a site to shed a tear before running back to Aso Rock to condemn again. I can't imagine GEJ giving out free fuel.

#Team"Anti-Christ"

What brought GEJ into this argument? It's rather shameful how we easily resort to abusing our leaders. Of course you wouldn't know that 'normal GEJ' disbursed money and relief materials to states that were recently ravaged by flood. Nne, gbaru ogwu gi.

Very soon our dear 'prophet' Acidtalk will claim he predicted this 'rare' incidence.

It's bewildering when people on nairaland call Mr. President or his wife a 'retardeen'. It's more so when most of the people that use this appellation in describng the president can hardly construct a meaninful sentence. I'm not a fan of Mr. President, but calling him a retard is nothing short of silliness.

Another Fulani herdsman. Even when he attains the exalted position of 'Executive governor' he still wields a koboko.

With you imaginative ability, I think you'd make a good James Cameron. I hope you're not serious;if you are, then you need to be quickly taken to a mental facility.

One thing I don't understand is why someone would want to travel with that much cash. What has happened to the electronic banking transfer system? I suppose the dude was trying to avoid paying tariffs to banks. Unfortunately, he'd have to pay a sum much larger than he was trying to avoid. Again, I think its so much risk carrying such amount of money around. Walahi if I gotten information about his itinerary before he was 'gwabbed', I would have ambushed him in the bid to forcefully collect the money.

You arent crying, all the other students are watching you and waiting patiently for their turn.

Someone had made a comment in class while the teacher was teaching and no one wanted to point out the person.
So the whole class is being punished.

Such is the horror, such is the pain, you have seen and felt it many times before so you aren't even dancing.
You are standing still like a tree, and displaying your art of self separation from pain.

Different folks with different endurance. It not everyone that has the ability to endure such physical trauma. Again, the girl in question might have been suffering from some kind of ailment.

You've just made a better casanova. I will sure apply those little secrets to hone my wooing skills. Girls watch out o!

dimeji2009dj: that is how it should be. To before warn is to before harm.

To be forewarned is to be forearmed. ....thats the right aphorism.

onomeasike: the blood of the children starved by biafran soldiers at work.the ibos should await more calamity until they atone for the innocent civilians killed by starvation by biafran soldiers!!yeye

How in any way is this a calamity? That some persons puportedly had a scuffle over a seat,and all of a sudden it becomes a calamity. It's either you're a junkie or you're burning with so much hatred and jealousy over not being an Igbo. And I much suspect the latter. Either way, go hug a transformer!

what a long transcript! It's difficult to pick a winner. I thought Romney was more precise with the answers he gave. I think Romney has short-term solutions (quick-fixes) to America's problems, while Obama has solutions that are futuristic and more enduring. The questions is how long can Americans wait? And I don't see them enduring their present condition any longer. And I think Romney might win on that premise. The people want quick solutions to their lingering problems.

JOHNBULL4040: TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

MY NAME IS JOHNBULL. ONE OF MY COUSINS WAS AMONGST THE FOUR YOUNG MEN GRUESOMELY BURNT ALIVE IN ALUU.

AS GOD IS MY WITNESS, I INTEND TO AVENGE HIS/THEIR DEATHS!

WHAT HAPPENED TO THESE YOUNG MEN IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER THEY COMMITTED A CRIME OR NOT, IS BY EVERY HUMANE STANDARD, VERY DISTURBING AND BEYOND BELIEF.

WHAT THESE ALUU PEOPLE DID TO THEIR FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS CLEARLY SUGGEST THAT THEY ARE A VERY SICK COMMUNITY.

FROM THE VIDEO WE ALL WATCHED, NOT EVEN ONE PERSON RAISED A FINGER TO HELP THESE POOR BOYS.

EVEN ANIMALS ARE NOT SLAUGHTERED THIS WAY.

I HAVE ASSEMBLED A 30-MAN SQUAD TO GO INTO THE ALUU COMMUNITY AND MASSACARE EVERYONE IN SIGHT.

I HAVE ALSO INSTRUCTED A SPECIAL TEAM TO FIND AND SHOOT THE VC OF UNIPORT FOR SUPPORTING THE BRUTAL KILLINGS OF THESE BOYS.

I AM ONLY GIVING THIS ADVANCED WARNING TO THE VC OF UNIPORT, AND THE ALUU COMMUNITY, JUST TO TORMENT THEM, THE WAY THEY TORMENTED THESE 4 YOUNG MEN.

I WILL ADVICE THE POLICE AND OTHER SECURITY OUTFITS TO PLEASE STAY OUT OF THE MATTER DURING THE OPERATIONS, THE WAY THEY MADE THEMSELVES UNAVALIABLE DURING THE MURDER.

ANYONE WHO DELIBRATELY INTERFERS, WILL BECOME A LEGITIMATE TARGET BOTH DURING AND AFTER THE OPERATIONS.

FOR THOSE WHO DOUBT THIS WARNING, PLEASE WAIT & SEE!!

PLEASE DIRECT COMMENTS TO : johnbull4040@yahoo.com

The jabbering of another sociopath.

pak: @freecocoa
I carefully chose to respond to your post because based on precedence, you seem at least to be a quite civil in responding.
I abhor violence, either physically or verbally, so please don't resort to insult if you choose to respond.

Now my points are thus :

1. You said you were quite disturbed by the whole issue and rightly so, but I pray thee, did you hear about the 2 guys that were lynched for allegedly being bomb trotting boko haram members.
Why was there not an outcry on their behalf? Did they not have parents or siblings? could there not have been a possibility that there were setup ? could it not have been possible that they were attacked because they were not Kano Indigenes ?
Why was it that many people on Nairaland gave Kano Indigenes a thumbs up for defending their community against Boko Haram ?
Was it because those people did not understand english and were not educated, hence they were worthless ? Why was there no police investigation ? Was it because there was no video ? or the Parents of those guys did not have access to the press like in this case ?
The argument am making here are making is that rather than being motivated by a sense of justice, most are actually being moved by emotions, which in itself is not wrong, but when not married with reason can lead to dire consequences as the citizens of ALUU are learning right now.


2. Have you heard of Dogo Nahawa, and Dogo Dawa ? Two communities that were attacked by gunmen in the middle of the night.
In Dogo Nahawa close to 40 lives(2010) were lost while ing Dogo Dawa (2012) about 20 people were allegedly killed.

Have you wondered why till date not one single suspect as been apprehended by the police ? despite the fact that in Dogo Nahawa, the indigenes even managed to obtain the ID card of one of the killers ? Do you know the emotional truama that the entire community will have to live through for decades to come ? Can you guess what will happen in Dogo Nahawa today if a strange gunman is found at night in their community, wether he came to rob or to kill or to recover a debt ?
Did you ever ask why ALUU had a vigilante team in the first place ? have you wondered why mob killings is so rampant in Nigeria and not just ALUU ? Lagos, Benin, Nairaland, everywhere.

I am totally against jungle justice and I abhor every form of violence. Also I am not against your agitations but I believe that there are many angles to this issue and only a holistic approach will put us ahead.

I know I might be attacked for this but the truth is that until the police is seen as effective, adequate and unbiased. Until the general populace are sure that a thief/armed robber will not be released from persecution just because is father is well connected or an indicted murderer will not be winning an election even when in jail. Then am sorry to say, Jungle justice will continue. This are the major issues that I feel we are failing to see in this whole saga

I agree that until the underlying factors precipitating these kind of dastardly acts are curbed, we may well not part with such incidents just yet. Poverty being a chief culprit.
But again, is it morally right we fold our arms and do nothing because these kind of heinous crimes have been variously commited in the past without reprimand of any sort? I say no my friend. Secondly, you can't liken this case to the Dogon Nahawa massacre; that was mainly an ethnic tussle between the Beroms and the Fulanis. A little research might give you an insight on what caused the massacre. Thirdly, I'm not of the opinion that this case is gathering so much dust because the victims were from the upper echelon of the society. I rather it was because of the way it was filmed,and how it went viral on the internet. We wouldnt be debating this issue if not for that gruesome video. Finally, why do we often implicitly bid the rich evil? We are quick to gloat over their misfortunes. That, my friend, is a wrong mentality.

[quote author=maxi-t]First, I must say that jungle justice is wrong. What the AlUU villages should have done is beat those boys, unclad them if they must, and handle them over to the police.
That's how criminals are handled everywhere. That beating aspect is compulsory even d police beats their suspect before arrest..

That being said, I want you guys to wake up from the nitemarez of the video and face some hard truth..

1. Majority of these suspects you see here are purely innocent. They were arrested at random. If you know d streets of 9ja n how police operates, u won't dispute this claim.

2. If u ever lived in a student community as rugged as Ekosodin(Uniben), Ekpoma(AAU) e.t.c. You would join in planking those boys to death. Or better yet just watch it unfolds as an inactive audience. You know why ?

3. Those boys did not go to collect money. They went to pull a hit. They went at a very odd time and they went with a gun.

4. In Ekosodin were I schooled from, wen these cult boys pulls any hit, they do it in the most horific manner. They shoot in the eye, cut off people's tongues, butcher with sharp knives. E.T.C

5. Perhaps this ALUU community people have been witnessing these kind of things. And suddenly they catch one of those "invicible" killers. What would u have them do ?

6. If u were in that crowd and your close friend, course-mate, brother was previously murdered gruesomely, what will u do? Will u risk ur life to try stopping it? Will u participate? Or will u just watch if u got d heart to ?

7. Till this date I have decided not to watch dat video cos I know it will disturb me mentally. But I have seen/heard gruesome killings and these aluu4 boys are NOT CLOSE to innocent people.

8. I hate to judge, but what if those 4 boys are one of those killers that goes abt off-campus killing people's children? And u heard they were burnt alive but didn't get to see d video, would u still be feeling dis way ?

9. The boys are definitely NOT armed robbers. But they are cultists and they went with their hitman to pull a hit.

10. I condemn d killings, police should please fish out the actual killers and not some random persons who could have done nothing but watch. The spectators should all be FREED. If I was there and I wanted to play good samaritan, I would call d police. But if I was there and the police is also there. All I can do is watch cos d people who ought to tak charge are there already.. U get me ?

Thanks 4 taking ur time to read this.. Oya make una begin pure out una hate n anger n watever.. That's my piece of mind...[/quote]Nna there is no need pouring out hate on another certificate-wielding illitrate; it's always a ridiculous waste of time. I'm not against your opinions,but I'm sure against your daft conclusion that they were cultists. So merely keeping late at night or going out in the wee hours of the morning makes one a cultist? Your thoughts are still far from being that of a civilized and enlightened mind. But again, I suppose you are just trying to act a bohemian so as to attract attention to your pitiful self.
