Mee234: security is the exclusive job of the police and civil defense. If this story is true, it definitely an inside job. Maybe the police or civil defense cos I think army are too discipline to do such.
oh please.......there's no discipline in nigeria...
everyone of them is a rogue.....i have never heard of robbers going to a female hostel to rob corp members. think about it - robbers won't risk facing soldiers in a shootout because of mobile phones, sanitary pads and petty cash! the female hostel in nysc camp is not central bank or zenith bank. who would risk his life to be shot by soldiers because of indian weave, perfumes and cocosheen hair product?

dayokanu: How has Wengers recird signings like Arshavin, And Antonio Reyes performed
you are talking bollocks - arshavin performed in his first season @ arsenal! he even scored 4 goals in a match against liverpool - he was the dog's bollocks when he joined arsenal - same as antonio reyes until the neville brothers smashed his ankles!


Ferguson failed to get the best out of Veron, One of United record signings, No coach in Madrid has been able to get the best of of Kaka one of Madrids and world football record signings, Jose Mourinho failed to get the best out of Sheva Chelseas record signings
the same seba veron that copped 5 goals and 14 assists in 26 league games for man utd as an attacking midfielder in his first season? failed to get the best out of him? how many league goals did torres score in his first season @ chelsea?

kaka as a midfielder is still maintaining his performance levels @ madrid - he scored 7 goals in 14 league games only last season(most strikers don't have goal/game ratio of 0.5) let alone an attacking midfielder......even shevchenko wasn't as bad as torres in his time @ chelsea -

di matteo is a disgrace to football tactics.....any manager that cannot get torres to play is a tool! villas boas was hindered by senior players so he can be excused but robbie was given a free rein and yet he failed!

there are guns in the camp - the soldiers don't just walk around with it.......why would robbers descend on a camp of broke corp members? the risks outweigh the reward by far, nigerian criminals are not that idiotic.......the corp members should report this matter to a higher authority(fct minister) or go to the senate house.....

nateevs, you don't need to waste words on ibime - he knows he's been found out.....
what di matteo should have done to torres is exactly what united's midfield does for hernandez. vast majority of chicharito's goals are from early ball from deep that would put him through on goal(1 v 1) situation and united's attacking players don't defend deep to execute such plus we don't have a xabi alonso or gerrard too.....

Who told u she can't lie, manipulate and cheat her way through it. Ask ppl that have beeen thru it. U r just theorizing.
kitty kat: Another way d man can win is by making peace but If its by force and the woman and her family are ready for him. Just fogerrit.

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]neglect can be proven right from his knowledge of the existance of the unborn. if he had not known that the woman was pregnant only then would his absence be acceptable, but where he had knownledge right from conception, it clearly proves negligence!!! personal circumstances of the father are considered only after it has been proven that he met the best interests of the child right from birth. the legal question in every case with regards to custody, is to prove whether the best interests of the child have been met. it would be very stupid to think that the best interests of the child will be superseded by the father's personal circumstances[/quote]if this is the case, what do you think the man would claim in court? that he was informed about the pregnancy? of course he would lie he never knew the woman got pregnant.....the court is about what you can prove not necessarily what the truth is unless there's a credible evidence. even in the face of evidence, temporary insanity is a sure getaway route! so my friend, the law can be toyed with in several ways....

kitty kat: I did rather not talk abt it here. But well to do men do loose custody wen they really bleep up. Lemme tell u one. It happened to close friend of mine. The aunt was Unmarried and was rejected by the man. The woman left and had a boy. She later got married to man in the states ho adopted the boy legally. 30somethin yrs later. Bio-dad comes calling cos he has only 2 gels. Anyways his rejected son is now a medical doctor in the US. He went to her family and they told her the son belongs to the husband. He ent to court and they told him his son is old enough to choose.

Hat do u think the son did? Ironically he is the only son of his foster dad. He kicked his dad in the face and told him to go to hell. The man met his son and the son clearly told him that his only allegiance is to his foster dad and mom he abandoned. Its not nolly wood. Its real life.

I have others that are more complicated but wouldn't want to talk abt them on NLD.
how is this example synonymous to what we have been saying?
new dad is american based - the laws of the land over there are strict and clear over child custody. the kid was even raised in america - where the normal naija custom and tradition does not exist! this is a different case entirely, miss kitty kat.....

gimme examples of where all the warring parties are all based in naija - with naija courts in play and with the kid raised in naija....then we can have a proper debate!

i don't disagree some men might have lost the custody of their kids to another man - there are 2 kinds of people in the world - the wise ones and the foolish ones. sadly, that's the world will live in. however, i cannot see how a well to do man who is financially buoyant to take care of his child would be denied access to his own child just because he was a philandering teenage boy who was immature to deal with paternity........

are we talking about the same patriarchal nigeria? the same nigerian where the successful child is the father's and the wayward irresponsible child belongs to the mother? i think some of you posters are getting carried away with the western culture...i won't even take custody of another man's child no matter how bad the woman tries to paint the father of the child! you can only take the wife of a lazy man - you cannot take his kid!

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]perfectly explaining why Nigeria has such a "great economy" with mentalities like these u cannot possibly expect a country to improve in anyway. if a man cannot take responsibility of his own child(1 person), it would just be straight up stupid to expect him to run a country wit 150 million other people and succeed with it[/quote]abeg go n siddon with your karl marx philosophy!

ARE OUR CHILD CUSTODY LAWS UP TO DATE?

Lagos — When Asabe left her husband for her father's house with her eighteen-month-old son, she did not realise that leaving her marriage meant she would have to give up her baby.

One late afternoon, a few days after she left, her mother-in-law came to visit. After the usual pleasantries, and as she held her grandson in her arms, Asabe's mother-in-law informed her that it was okay for her to leave her husband, but she could not take their son away. She walked out the door with the baby and it was many years before Asabe would see her son again.

In March, hidden away on the pages of a little known newspaper was a story of a Nigerian woman who died while struggling to retain physical possession of her four year old son. According to eyewitnesses, the child cried as both parents tugged at him, until the father won with one final push and walked away with the child and the woman's life. This couple had four children, two had died and the husband had possession of the third.

How many women in Nigeria have illegally lost possession of their children just because their marriages have ended either by them or for them? How many of these cases are ever reported? And in how many of these cases, even when civil and customary laws dictate that these children are better off with their mothers, does the legal system support this?

The Matrimonial Causes Act 1970 is applicable to all child custody cases including children borne out of civil, customary and Islamic marriages and provides that in all custody matters, 'the interests of the child shall be paramount'. This predominance of the child's right is also echoed in the Child Rights Act 2003, but how do we decide in a patriarchal society what the 'interest of the child' is, especially when that child is a minor? This becomes even harder when the Matrimonial Act is silent on what the interests of a child are, does not define the word 'minor' nor take into consideration the special treatment that minors need.

So who gets custody of the child where both parents are fit, willing and capable?

In Nigerian case law, we see the uncertainty in the judgments as judges struggle to decide what is in the best interest of a child subject to custody proceedings. For Justice Belgore, JSC (as he then was) in Odogwu v Odogwu, 'the welfare of the child is not in material provisions of the home such as food and air conditioners it is psychologically detrimental to his (the child) welfare and ultimate

happiness and psychological development if maternal care, is denied him'. In Williams v Williams, Learned Trial Judge Williams said 'the best arrangement for the welfare of any child is that he or she should be with his or her parents'. Neither of these analyses support a situation where minors are taken away from their mothers if they are not unfit - so why is it that in Nigeria, women lose custody of their infant or under aged children even when courts provide them with sole or joint custody? Most importantly, why in the 21st century is this data unavailable from our courts?

This is where Islamic jurisprudence is more detailed because the injunctions are so clear that the flagrant disregard for the law amongst Muslims and Sharia courts is testament to how heavily the culture of patriarchy is. However, and this is a big however, the clarity ends when the different schools of interpretation are taken into consideration. Under Maliki Islamic jurisprudence, which is what majority of Nigerian Muslims adhere to, children under the age of puberty stay with their mother. In fact, female children stay with their mother until the time of marriage while male children stay with their mothers until puberty. Going further in attesting to the importance of the mother in a child's life, even when a Muslim woman cannot be granted custody, seven variations of custody lie with her family before the father's family comes into the equation - again something that rarely happens.

Apart from our culture of supreme patriarchy, the other reasons why women lose possession of their children is because they are economically disempowered and lack access to information about their rights under either customary (Islamic) or civil law.

Unfortunately there is little under Igbo and Yoruba customary law that supports a mother's right to her children. Amongst the Yoruba the children belong with the father and custody will usually be granted to him. According to research, within a certain group of the Yoruba, the paternal grandmother names the children, setting the stage for 'ownership' of the children. Ironically, in a society where all the failings of a child are 'blamed' on the mother, a tacit admission of the importance of the role, our society insists on separating young children from their mothers.

With thirty seven 'Ministries of Women's Affairs' and countless Non Governmental Organisations all focused on promoting the welfare of women and children, information on child custody issues and where to go for help and advice is sadly lacking. Baobab, a women's human rights organisation, has some relevant information but this is hidden inside annual reports and there is no information on the website on the legal position on child custody. Collating custody cases and judgments is the ideal place for law, data and public policy to merge; with the judiciary and NGOs' feeding the information into the Ministries and the Ministries using this data to ensure the right policy is implemented.

As usual, the Nigerian legal and political system is not set up to protect the rights of women and children. We missed the opportunity to use the Child Rights Act to close the gaps in the Matrimonial Causes Act. Now women, not only in the judiciary and legal profession, must begin taking collective and individual responsibility for protecting one of the most fundamental rights of a child - the right to a mother's love.

[quote author=mondi_cheeks]the fact that a person can prove that he is the biological father does not automatically mean he is deemed fit to be a guardian of the child. his absence rather can prove that he is irresponsible and the fact that he requested the woman to abort previously can show that, "if he could be negligent and reckless by making such a request, he cannot possibly be entrusted with the human life of someone he wanted terminated before"[/quote]feck's sake.....
what else does he need to prove? if he's sane and well to do and he does not pose any harm to himself or the child, there's no law that would prohibit a biological father from getting access to his child

you keep quoting idiotic constitutions - somewhere in that same constitution, it's unlawful to rob people with arms. as i am speaking to you right now, hundreds of families are being robbed. so what is the essence of quoting constitution when it's not enforced?

Ibime: Wenger failed to get the best of Chamhakh. FACT!
Nigga yarning shyte
Ask Wenger to carry Chamhakh in his team every game lets see how far he gets. Relegation perhaps.
look at this obese buffalo - chamakh is not priority, he did not cost wenger £50m. if wenger paid that much for a striker, trust me - the striker would blossom!

First of all why does Lukaku want to go on loan? Definitely not because Torres is better. A manager just got sacked because some tooth fairies like RA and Emenalo refuse to accept Torres is finished. You want Lukaku to hang around like he did during Nations Cup whilst the politicians keep Torres in the team for two months with zero goals and atrocious play?
lukaku wasn't good enough - he had few cameo appearances last season and he looked horrible. bébe had a better intro in the premier league than lukaku.....he was moved on to hone his skills and torres is better than lukaku!

60 million worth of talent and no defensive midfield or strikeforce. The 60 million worth of talent that nincompoop said should have been dropped to "balance the non-existent defensive midfield" which some eediot mocked Ibime for few weeks back. But of course that eediot is not RDM. He's totally unaccountable for previous brain farts. How do we know the nonsense he's chatting now is not a "futures brain fart "
you are a spastic gibbon.......what the heck are you talking about? the crux of the issue is di matteo falling to get the best out of torres. he failed that simple assignment - he completely ignored the selfish play of MAZACAR......only last week, i was questioning how di matteo continued to keep his job with the way torres gets totally ignored at the far post because hazard wants to score from an acute angle - that's unacceptable!

Don't forget to tabulate the 50 million worth of outstanding striking talent purchased by the tooth fairy also. Mr calculator
hahahahaha - ancellotti bought torres, stop blaming emenalo for the sins of others

debosky: All this megedefegede Ibime is yarning is nonsense!

Firstly, when RDM was doing well with these same players that Emenalo is culpable for buying, RDM was a hero. The second things go wrong, it's all Emenalo's fault and no fault belongs to RDM. What other way do you recognise a biased, foolishly unrealistic phat fart? cheesy

See Ibime quoting some guff in Daily Mail like it's the gospel truth. . . .regurgitated bollocks!

The fact is, if better players like Rooney who have won nearly everything in club football can adapt their game to make their top striker look good and productive, then who the f.uck is MAZACAR? huh

See this t.wat called Ibime blaming Torres for Lukaku's troubles - how many times did RDM play him last season? Instead that wasteman preferred Kalou whose days at Chelski were numbered. Yet Torres should be blamed for that! cheesy

Some cats are now trying to redefine Benitez as purely counter attacking - let's even say he is, this same counter attacking play produced more goals than any other team in the 2008/09 season, leading them to second place, so what is the problem? Any player not willing to adapt should GTFO. cheesy

Ibime: I thought you said Sturridge is the reason why Torres flops?
sturridge is young, he's still trainable!
sit him down to watch other flying wingers in the team or sit him on the bench if he fails to learn. you see, sturridge, hazard, mata and oscar are dispensable. the owner's primary objective as we speak is how to get torres back to his liverpool days especially his debut season. any smart manager would simply make torres the diva in that squad. get him 5 technical geeks to teach him how to take penalties....even if he doesn't score via open play, the penalties would keep his statistics up like it's done lampard over the years.

Ibime: Firstly, Alonso, Gerrard and Kuyt were always in their own half before "springing". But lets leave that aside. . .

Good! Thank you! We agree totally!

First lemme assume (I dey laugh) that this would get Torres firing (na lie o!)

Now we know that Emenalo bought MaZaCar to be "stationed in deeper positions to draw the opposition fullbacks up the pitch", like Gerrard and Kuyt.

In other words, defending in their own half, waiting for counterattack.

OK!

So coogar, whats your take on Emenalo's hand in this?
emenalo has no hand in this matter.....at most, emenalo buys the players and it's up to the manager to select the team and draw out the tactics.
i still blame the shambles at chelsea on poor coaching and pampering the prima donna players. ronaldo did enough defending at man utd as an out n out winger....hazard can do the same(when chelsea are defending)....this is the premier league where most teams make use of the wing-play....if you expose any fullback, you would get punished!

hazard and oscar should be made to work harder or stop playing the 3 of them in one swoop. sturridge and moses must be used to protecting the full-back. MAZACAR should be rotated till they are fine-tuned into knowing how to defend in the premier league. drogba, tevez, rooney, van persie, adebayor, aguero, etc chase opponents everywhere on the pitch. oscar/hazard are not different. they should roll their sleeves and get their shorts dirty. chelsea cannot defend with 6 players!

don't make me laugh......this is not about the law or some constitution. it's the family of the other guy that would shout at him to give up the baby to the biological father. who would claim the ownership of a child one did not sire in nigeria? don't make me laugh! are you aware the couple would have to provide the evidence that the biological father never wanted the child? where is such evidence? he would simply claim he had no knowledge the woman got pregnant for him and now that he knows, he wants his child back......even after 30 yrs, the dna of that child would match his and he can claim him at anytime he desires. this is africa!

eGuerrilla: Edo, Bayelsa and Delta produce the 'best' results here.
ijaw areas? typical! i see a trend here.
what are the odds that these places are the most notorious states in examination malpractices. the average youth in these regions is a militant. most of the centres are not motorable.....which means all the examination papers are sent in advance unlike places like lagos, abuja and anambra where the exam officials go to the bank to collect examination papers on the same day.

this ibime is a confusionist......

launching a counter-attack does not mean MAZACAR must wait in their own half to do it....jeeez, are you this idiotic? how much defending did gerrard and alonso did in those days at anfield. the point is - the ball should be getting far quicker to torres than what we have seen so far. yes, when chelsea are defending, hazard and oscar should cover their full-backs to form 2 banks of four! ronaldo does this for real madrid - are MAZACAR too special to defend?

the defensive liability of MAZACAR is the sole reason chelsea are conceding like they do. oscar and hazard tend to drift to the centre of the pitch thus leaving their full backs as exposed as the fanny of a gangrape victim. this is why i keep saying di matteo's understanding of the game is poor. ramirez and mikel are powerless against teams who use the wing play effectively. at stamford bridge, valencia was made to look like a world class winger.

jonathan wilson has said it all here....

Trying to find the old Torres

Benítez got the best from Fernando Torres at Liverpool by taking advantage of his movement into the channels and his lightning acceleration in behind the defence – but it remains to be seen whether Chelsea's £50m record signing has the raw pace to reprise that role. When the striker first arrived at Chelsea, they lacked creative players to feed him with incisive passes and the signings of Juan Mata and Oscar have had little impact upon his goalscoring record – the problem is clearly more complex.

Maybe a more cautious side overall will benefit Torres – with Chelsea's wingers likely to be stationed in deeper positions, this may draw opposition full-backs up the pitch and give him more space to work in. Although his performances have been nowhere near his peak at Liverpool, Torres's movement has certainly become more varied, as a result of being unable to depend upon pure speed.

Realistically, Benítez's main impact on Torres will be psychological rather than tactical – Chelsea have already spent two years trying to incorporate him in the team. As the only player to have worked under Benítez previously, maybe Torres will finally feel a key part of the Chelsea side

shymexx: Nah, I was just trying to defuse the whole back and forth... It's pointless arguing about which region is more "educated" when most of the so-called graduates are semi-illiterates...

I'll just watch from the sidelines as a guest and let you guys have fun.. grin
we can use nairaland as a good class size........
