That's what all rapîsts should do.

Jesuspikin87: Not everybody owns a DSTV.

Thean make do with a viewing center close to you.

The last time I checked we still have DSTV and Supersports in Nigeria and they are going to show not just Nigeria's match but all the previous matches. The headline should be adjusted to indicate that it won't be shown on free to air / terrestial TV.

They all have heavy price tags on their heads.

9. Abubakar Shekau Shekau's inclusion recognizes the growing tide of Islamist militancy in West Africa. For the last four
years, he has led Boko Haram, a Salafist group in northern Nigeria that has begun cooperating with other groups as far away as Mali. Opinion: Should U.S. fear Boko Haram? But its main focus remains churches and other
Christian targets, the police and the moderate
Muslim establishment in northern Nigeria. Just last month, suspected Boko Haram fighters broke into a college in Yobe state and murdered more than 40 students as they slept. In 2010, Shekau warned that the group would attack Western interests and the following year it carried out its first suicide bombing -- against U.N. offices in the capital, Abuja -- killing at least 23 people. The group has also kidnapped and killed several Western hostages. While Bokko Haram is not an affiliate of al Qaeda, Shekau has made clear his sympathy for the group's goals. The United States made him a Specially Designated Global Terrorist in June 2012. Two caveats here: there are conflicting reports that Shekau was killed in an August raid by Nigerian special forces. But a video that appeared weeks later purported to show he was still alive. And Boko Haram's leadership structure is opaque at best; it's unclear how much control Shekau himself exerts over its fighters. John Campbell, a former U.S. ambassador to Nigeria, wrote last month that so far "Boko Haram has shown little interest in the world outside of Nigeria and the Sahel. But the situation in Nigeria is dynamic, and it is possible that closer ties will develop between al-Qaeda and elements of Boko Haram." "Boko Haram" means "Western education is n education is forbidden" and reflects the group's utter rejection of modernity and Western influences. "Hostile to democracy, modern science, and
Western education as non-Islamic, it is highly
diffuse," Campbell said of the group. "For some
adherents, religious, even apocalyptic, themes
appear to be paramount." Reward offered by the U.S. government: up to $7 million for his location.

1. Ayman al-Zawahiri Despite the whittling away by drone attacks of "al
Qaeda central" in the mountainous border region between Afghanistan and Pakistan, the group's leader remains vocal and active in trying to harness the disparate affiliates that claim the al Qaeda name. Source: al Qaeda leader urged affiliate to 'do something' Since former leader Osama bin Laden's death in 2011, al-Zawahiri has sought to take advantage of the unrest sweeping the Arab world, and has recognized that groups such as al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) and al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb are better placed to carry out attacks than the ever-diminishing core that remains in "Af-Pak." At times, al-Zawahiri has struggled to exercise authority over groups such as the Islamic State in Iraq, not least because of the difficulty in communicating with far-flung offshoots. Aware that pulling off another 9/11 is a remote
possibility, al-Zawahiri has suggested a shift to less ambitious and less expensive but highly disruptive attacks on "soft" targets, as well as hostage-taking. In an audio message in August he recommended
taking "the citizens of the countries that are
participating in the invasion of Muslim countries as hostages." Al-Zawahiri, an Egyptian doctor who is now 62, is
not the inspirational figure to jihadists that bin
Laden was, but he is trying to fashion a role as the CEO of a sprawling enterprise. According to the Economist, he may be succeeding. "From Somalia to Syria, al-Qaeda franchises and jihadist fellow travellers now control more territory, and can call on more fighters, than at any time since Osama bin Laden created the organisation 25 years ago," it wrote this month. Reward offered by the U.S. government for his capture: up to $25 million.
2. Nasir al Wuhayshi For someone thought to be about 36 years old, Wuhayshi's terror resume is already extensive.
Once bin Laden's private secretary in Afghanistan, he returned to his native Yemen and ended up in jail. But not for long: He and several other al Qaeda operatives dug their way out in 2006. He went on to to help found al Qaeda in Yemen, and began launching attacks on Yemeni security services and foreign tourists, as well as directing an ambitious attack against the U.S. Embassy in Yemen. The new face of terror: Who is Nasser al-Wuhayshi? He is now the emir of AQAP, widely regarded as the most dangerous and active of al Qaeda's many offshoots. A slight figure with an impish sense of humor, according to some who have met him, Wuhayshi appears to have been anointed al Qaeda's overall deputy leader in a bold move by al- Zawahiri to leverage the capabilities of AQAP. SethJones, a Rand Corporation analyst, called theappointment "unprecedented because he's living in Yemen, he's not living in Pakistan." If al-Zawahiri is al Qaeda's CEO, Wuhayshi appears to be its COO -- with responsibilities that extend far beyond Yemen. It appears that in 2012 he was already giving operational advice to al Qaeda's affiliate in North Africa . Despite a concerted effort by the Yemeni government and the United States to behead AQAP, Wuhayshi survives, and his fighters have recently gone on the offensive again in southern Yemen.
The group is bent on exporting terror to the West -- both through bomb plots and by dispatching Western converts home to sow carnage.

3. Ibrahim al-Asiri Not a household name, but one that provokes plenty of anxiety among Western intelligence agencies. Al-Asiri, a 31-year-old Saudi, is AQAP's master bomb-maker, as expert as he is ruthless. He is widely thought to have designed the "underwear" bomb that nearly brought down a U.S. airliner over Detroit on Christmas Day 2009, as well as the ingenious printer bombs sent as freight from Sanaa, Yemen, and destined for the United States before being intercepted thanks to a Saudi tip-off. The bombs were so well hidden that at first British police were unable to find one device even after isolating the printer. Most dangerous terrorist in the world: al Qaeda's master bomb-maker Al-Asiri also fitted his younger brother Abduillah with a bomb hidden in his rectum in an effort to kill Saudi Arabia's counter-terrorism chief, Mohammed bin Nayef. The brother died in the attack; bin Nayef survived. His trademark explosive is PETN -- a white, odorless powder than cannot be detected by most X-ray machines. Al-Asiri is thought to be somewhere in the vast mountainous interior of southern Yemen. The anxiety among Saudi and Western intelligence officials is that he has passed on his expertise to apprentices.
4. Ahmed Abdi Godane Godane, aka Mukhtar Abu Zubayr, became the
leader of the Somali group Al-Shabaab at the end of
2008. Traditionally, Al-Shabaab has been focused
on bringing Islamic rule to Somalia, and as such has
attracted dozens of ethnic Somalis (and a few
Western coverts) from the United States and Europe. But Godane appears to be refocusing the group on
terrorist attacks beyond Somalia, against the east
African states that are supporting the Somali
government -- especially Uganda and Kenya -- and
against Western interests in east Africa. The Westgate Mall attack in Nairobi September 21
was Al-Shabaab's most audacious, but not its first
nor most deadly outside Somalia. In 2010, Al-
Shabaab carried out suicide bombings in the
Ugandan capital, Kampala, in which more than 70

Bilany: How many ambassadors will Glo have before they think it's enough?

They also go about signing sponsorship deals in and out of Nigeria and they are very notorious for not honouring their contract.

Tolexander: Cool!
The guy is loyal not minding what fate befell his parents in the same country some years back.

Easy on that, no one can even say if the story is true. Nigerians tell a lot of stories in order to get asylum in the UK.

olatade: He said it was wrong for the minister to tell
Nigerians that ‘’accidents are inevitable’’ and that they were ‘’acts of God.”

So said the same FFK who blamed plane crashes that happened when he was aviation minister on occultic powers and Demons. Simply shows how hypocritical these people can be.

jonescyras: Thanks very much sir . I have received lot of advice,n I have made up my mind to carry on with
the course ......I'm just 20.

who said 20 is ''just''? Some of your mates are doing youth service now, some are already earning a living. Take away that mentality.

^^^So Musiwa the mad man, what's the solution??

talktimi: funny enough this thought occured to me o. You never can tell what these politicians can do. Well sha lets confirm the news first

It is very possible, not far fetched at all. Those ''Doctors'' are Jihadists. I just hope it isn't true sha

berem: Swaggalicious APC governors!

When will Jonathan ever where a School uniform or Boyscout uniform to commemorate an event for children other than a traditional attire?

Nothing concern me and APC o or any party for that matter, I just dey Gbadu Rochas.

Rochas the hardworking teacher.

If Rochas does something like this, they are quick to call him a clown.

He has just recruited 100 deadly Jihadists disguised as doctors. Our intelligence agencies should beware!

How does implementing true federalism mark the end of Nigeria? Good idea GEJ! We need someone to take the bull by the horn. If this is true, even his haters will struggle to find a fault in it.

Sagamite: [s]This one is not only a hypocritical person. He is a complete and undiluted person!

His brain is paralyzed and this is evident in his comments.

person, so what if no black person chooses to say some European place is unsafe?

person, that is not the point. If they did and someone says "Go back to Africa, you are not from here", fucktards like you would be frothing from the mouth that you have not seen such racism before.

I have told you before, just blow your brains off with a shotgun. You are too moronic![/s]

I know you make a living off arguing with people on the internet, unfortunately I don't have the time to satisfy your cravings tonight. FIFA has made their decision, it turns out that I was right the first time. You can keep crying though.

write2obi: Just look at how you reason *smh, you will suffer*

what's wrong with my reasoning? You can't say stuffs like ''if it was a black player'' without taking a look at the context. How many black players in Europe have called for match venues to be changed because of safety issues before? Go to that website and see what they wrote about Turkey, did that stop Arsenal (which is a British team) from playing against Fenebahçe there? Like I said in a previous thread when this whole episode started, Saintifiet was just looking for trouble and he got it. Ghana is going to play Egypt in November, have they gone to a British site that provides travel advisories for British citizens to read the rubbish written about Egypt there?

To all those comparing this case with that of blacks, how many black players go about calling places in Europe unsafe? Imagine Mikel Obi saying he won't join Chelsea in playing a champions league match in Israel, he'll deserve whatever insults he gets from the Israelis. Period!

maclatunji: ^A very depressing statistic.

Thanks to your terrorist brothers, just check the other countries listed. What do they have in common?

chelseaguy: As much as I hate to admit it, Sagamite is correct here. Keshi's words were out of line, and if it were a white dude he would be fired by their FA. I wouldn't have complained if our FA had fired him.

So you wouldn't have complained if Keshi was fired because of this? You are a big fool

Kwame Tut get a job, stupîd Ghanaian in denial.
