slimyem: ....but. Definitely not because of an ipad. Right?

she took the pesticide because of her husband's (my relative)failure to buy an Ipad for her,infact he told her that after settling the school fees of their kidz this september he will get it for her,but she still drank and died,who knows if she is in a cult??who knows if its her time??who knows if drinking the poison was just a smokescreen??for the sake of her kidz I will not say somethings here but there is more to her drinking the poison that meets the eye

slimyem: what did she confess about?

well she dint die immediately,she was first admitted to the hospital and the case promptly reported to the police,when it became obvious she will die she told the police and other people present that yes she willingly took the pesticide to end her life.....strange world

noblementor: This is not good at all. They should find a way of paying their customers, a lot of customers are complaining bitterly. Hope they will still call off the strike?

my brother no word from them till date ooo!people are really complaining,lots of 2012 batchB corpers in enugu kept their savings in that bank,I felt Nysc should have taken the matter to the CBN by now but it seems they too don't care.. .I wonder how long this will continue.....MODS oooo!please take this thread to the front page,if to say na Totoh decay now e for make front page without any comment

Well i never believe stories like these when I read them on Nairaland,I just laugh and say "Nigerians and drama" but this one is sadly true,when my Dad told me about it few weeks ago I was laughing because I don't see the sense in an adult taking her own life because of Ipad,this is a woman that is well to do,a level 12 civil servant and also a big time business woman.though I have reasons to believe there is more to the drama(I mean the spiritual angle),her husband is related to me,a well to do banker who will not hurt a fly,and this case has been thoroughly investigated by the police before she was finally buried,there are witnesses who saw when she drank the pesticide and she also confessed before she died...I learnt a lot from this case,A man has to be very careful,many women are evil and diabolic(many men too)...

;DBoys dey husttle ,he should be made to face the full wrath of the law,nice scheme though.The clueless commissioner would have signed a check for him,just badluck

I don't really know the section to put this thread in but I just feel it will be best in general section since we don't have a section for banking or banks.....for close to a month now,Union Homes branches across the nation have been under lock and key(Union homes is a subsidiary of Union Bank,I am sure not everybody have heard of them),leaving their customers across the nation stranded.For some reasons I kant fathom it hasn't made headlines and nobody is talking about it so I am using this medium to create awareness and inform the general public about this ugly trend.I am sure if it was any of the more popular finiancial institutions like First bank,GT Bank or Zenith bank the world must have heard about it by now.I spoke with a worker of the bank and he told me NLC closed down the bank because the management of the bank refused to pay severance packages to many of their former staffs that were wrongly laid off....I am really disturbed as this ugly development has really affected me negatively because I kept my Nysc savings in that bank I really needed that money to start up a small time business,let me stop preaching now.........MODS please do well to take this thread to the front Page so it will get the much needed publicity,all we need is a solution so we can withdraw our money as soon as possible.....

Mr Aboki: Run Osuji Run.....










_{May the gods lead you to safety..}

I know you must have disagreed with the british expatriate when he said Nigerians are quick to support corruption and crime

Dike Chimezie: @Op,u would have told us we are in for a marathon.I read,slept off,woked up to continue but decided to scroll down to see d lenght of d remainder but amazingly realised that i have not gone halfway.
Then i paused to ask myself if the stress is worth it - then came to a conclusion that it dosen't especially when it is coming from a foreigner who with due respect knows scarcely about Nigeria and Nigerians.
I rest my case.

Oga just Admit it,you are too lazy to read and don't care about anything that isn't food on your table,hope you wunt be too lazy to read your own will

Symphony007: listen to yourself. "if they can land in lagos, they can land in enugu" it's like saying "if they can land in new york, they can land in idaho", don't u understand economics? Yeah, you are a typical nigerian since childhood who have grown customed to promise and fail politicians so your expectators and hopes are now as low as low gets, therefore anything that comes is great. You don't belive you deserve better. Symptoms of a failed society.

CAN YOU PLEASE SHUT UP??

Lmao,John Chi indeed,he dosnt have a name ni??Church people operating like cult and expecting us to believe their miracles

Flytefalls: His letter astounds me into a mind-phucking stupor. When slaves accuse others of being victim to slavery, the universe implodes a little.

...and then he invites her back home aaahahaha .

LOL,he wants his people to complete what they started,please extra security should be given to the girl,Aboki's can not be trusted

HNosegbe: ^^^^
My guy the matter tire me o. How we wan take do am na?

Meanwhile, as Malala continues with her campaign to put school-age children in school around the world, let's not forget that our very own Senator Yerima and his ilk would rather prefer that such kids remain their sex slaves, in the name of marriage.

Just today I heard Ghana is considering increasing marriage age for girls from 18 to 24,but in Nigeria the reverse is the case,people like Senator Yerima are making plans to get married to their great grand daughters,its a pity

A senior figure in the Pakistan Taliban
has written an extraordinary letter to
Malala Yousafzai setting out the reasons
why she was shot, coming close to
expressing regret.
In the four-page document, written in
shaky English and seen by The Daily
Telegraph, Adnan Rasheed described
his shock at hearing the 15-year old had
been shot last year.
He claimed he had wanted to warn her
against criticising the Taliban because
of his “brotherly” feelings towards
someone from his own Yousafzai tribe.
“When you were attacked it was
shocking for me. I wished it would never
happened and I had advised you
before,” he wrote.
Malala has spent the past nine months
in Britain recovering from her injuries.
She was shot twice by masked gunmen
who singled her out among her friends
on a school bus in the town of Mingora,
Swat.
Since then she has become a symbol of
the campaign to help more girls into
school.
Last week, she addressed the
United Nations in a speech that
received global attention , where she
declared: “One child, one teacher, one
pen and one book can change the
world. Education is the only solution.”
Her story has provoked soul searching
within the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan
(TTP). Commanders sent out a slew of
press releases in the aftermath of the
shooting to justify why they had
attacked a young girl as public opinion
hardened against them.
In the latest letter, first passed to a
local journalist, Rasheed insisted Malala
was not shot because of her campaign
for education.
“Taliban believe that you were
intentionally writing against them and
running a smearing campaign to malign
their efforts to establish Islamic system
in Swat and your writings were
provocative,” he wrote.
“You have said in your speech
yesterday that pen is mightier than
sword, so they attacked you for your
sword not for your books or school.”
The letter writer is one of Pakistan’s
most notorious terrorists. He was in the
Pakistan Air Force before being
imprisoned for a plot to kill Pervez
Musharraf but escaped in a mass jail
break last year.
Now he has a taste for flowery prose,
quoting Bertrand Russell on science
and referencing Sir TB Macaulay, who
played a major role in introducing the
English language to Indian schools in
the 19th century.
“Why they want to make all human
beings English? Because Englishmen
are the staunch supporters and slaves
of Jews,” he wrote.
Rasheed insisted the Taliban were not
opposed to education, just an education
system that would turn Pakistanis into
slaves and had no room for Islam.
He also asked whether Malala would
have received as much attention if she
had been hurt in a CIA drone strike.
“I ask you and be honest in reply, if you
were shot but Americans in a drone
attack, would world have ever heard
updates on your medical status? Would
you be called ‘daughter of the nation?
Would the media make a fuss about
you?”
The letter ends with an invitation to
return and embrace the culture of her
Pashtun population, which lives along
the border with Afghanistan.
“At the end I advise you to come back
home, adopt the Islamic and Pashtun
culture, join any female Islamic
madrassa near your home town, study
and learn the book of Allah, use your
pen for Islam and plight of Muslim
ummah and reveal the conspiracy of
tiny elite who want to enslave the whole
humanity for their evil agendas in the
name of new world order.”
Saleem Mehsud, the journalist who
obtained the letter, said the TTP wanted
to set the record straight on their
reasons for shooting her.
“They watched her speak at the UN and
this is their reaction,” he said. “They
wanted to get it out to as many people
as possible.”

On this very day last year over 100 Nigerians lost their lives along the east west road,particularly in Okogbe community some 12kms from Ahoada when a massive fire erupted while petrol was being scooped from a broken down petrol tanker....as Nigerians remember the victims I am asking this question....Why Do Nigerians scoop fuel from petrol tankers and broken pipelines??
Is it Poverty or Greed??what do you guys think??

Why is there so much wickedness in the world??Imagine being butchered by kidz you gave birth to,tomorrow when those kidz are hanged Oyibo people will not let us rest

BENIN CITY— THERE was confusion in
Lampese Akoko Edo Local Government
Area of Edo State, which shares a
boundary with Kogi State, when two
children of the same parents, identified
as Omolayo Ojeifo(25) and her younger
brother, Taiye (20) reportedly lured
their mother identified as Mrs. Itowo
Ojeifo to a farm road and killed her.
It was gathered that Omolayo has had a
running battle with her mother, whom
she accused of being the reason she
had not prospered in life and also being
a witch.
She was said to have apologised to her
mother few days to the dastardly act
and pleaded that she was misled into
believing that her problems were
caused by her, but unknown to the
deceased, she was being tricked into
her untimely death.
Vanguard was informed that the
suspect, Omolayo, had last
Wednesday, appealed to her mother to
accompany her somewhere and despite
her mother’s refusal that she was busy
at home, she was able to convince her
mother to follow her, as the deceased
abandoned the cassava she was peeling
and accompanied her, not knowing that
her children had perfected plans to kill
her.
She was said to have been led through
a bush path to the farm and midway,
the son brought out a machete, which
he used in “cutting their mother.”
An eye witness, who was said to have
been threatened by the suspects that
he would be dealt with if he reports
what he saw was said to have rushed
back to the community, where he
reported the incident, but before people
could be mobilised to the scene, the
woman had been killed by her children.
Confirming the incident yesterday, Edo
State Police Public Relations Officer,
Moses Eguavoen, said the incident
happened on July 3 and that it was the
former husband of the deceased, Mr
Sunday Itowo that made a formal report
to the police on the incident.
He said the victims ran to Uzebba in
Owan West Local Government Area but
that the covert intelligence of the police
led to their arrest.
“The case will soon be transferred to
the state command for further
investigation,” the police said.

Another angle I view the Morsi removal from is the security of Israel,with Morsi in charge Terrorist elements in the Gaza strip might be empowered to attack Israel and the IDF will have no choice than crossing into Gaza or even Sinai which will lead to Military build up in Egypt,the Egyptian Military under Morsi will definitely respond with aggression and that's the end of Camp David's Accord....simply put,the security of Israel can not be guaranteed with an Islamist in power in Egypt...we all know the deep hatred the Muslim brotherhood have for the state of Israel and Jews in general

Ezedon: what did i benefit from all these pictures ni?

my brother tell me you dint notice your stupiditee reduce a bit after viewing those pictures??swear it dint reduce

Yomii: Boss is always right. Ameachi is just a boy, why will he dare argue with Mr President? Forget the fact that atimes GEJ does somethings that pissed the whole nation off but he his still the president. Every president deserve their respect. Ameachi should apologise and clean up his mess. How dare he question the presidents' authority?

the Oga @ the top mentality again...so every Governor must be loyal and Bow to Mr President even when their political views and ambitions differ??

when the media went agog with news of the feud or will I say political wrestling between Governor Rotimi Amaechi and President Goodluck Jonathan the 1st thing that came to my mind was the President was flexing his muscles and moving against both real and percieved opponents ahead of 2015,and I still feel that way.I don't want to dwell on who is right and who is wrong,I just want to know where your sympathy lies.I wasn't in Port Harcourt for the greater part of last year and this year,I came into PH about two weeks ago and since then I have talked to so many of my politically enlightened friends and 96% of them are saying Amaechi is a traitor and should be cut to size,infact it seems I am a lone ranger when the issue is brought up for discussion... And from discussions on radio stations(people who call in)it seems a vast majority of Port Harcourt people seem to be angry with Amaechi for daring to move against or disagree with President Jonathan...what is your thought on the issue??where do your sympathy lies??is it with Amaechi or Jonathan....let me know your views

Authorities will hold a war drill next week based on
the scenario of missiles pouring in from multiple
fronts, with some carrying chemical warheads. The
“targets” in the drill include population centers and
strategic facilities.
Named “Steadfast Home Front 1,” the exercise will
simulate the firing of missiles from Syria, Lebanon,
and Gaza, and will include two air-raid sirens that
will ring out across the country next Monday, May
27.
During the sirens, members of the public are
encouraged to seek a preselected safe zone and
drill their responses to missile attack.
The first siren will sound at 12:30 p.m., and is
mainly aimed at schools and work places, while the
second, at 7:05 p.m., is to drill families at home.
The drill will test the responses of all first
responders – police, firefighters, and paramedics –
as well as the IDF Home Front Command and
national and local government, said Home Front
Defense Minister Gilad Erdan during a press
conference in Tel Aviv on Tuesday.
“This is one of the lessons the government and
emergency responders learned from the Second
Lebanon War, when they were caught unprepared,
and suffered from a lack of coordination,” Erdan
said.
He added that the risk of an actual chemical attack
on Israel was low, and that the main threat
remained a conventional missile attack. Some
enemy projectiles have conventional warheads
made up of several hundred kilograms of
explosives, Erdan said.
“Today, the scenarios we see are different than
before. We see Hamas equipping itself in the south,
and we see the abilities of Hezbollah, Syria, and
Iran,” Erdan added.
“Our enemies have despaired of trying to conquer
Israel and will try to exhaust and terrorize Israeli
civilians instead,” the minister said.
“We once asked if the enemy would dare fire
missiles on Ashkelon, Tel Aviv… and Haifa. I think
these questions no longer have a place. The answer
is clear. The question now is, when will they fire on
population centers? It can happen tonight, or next
week.”
During the drill, authorities will simulate hundreds
of missiles striking the Gush Dan metropolitan area
in central Israel. Erdan said the home front’s ability
to contend with that scenario is “no less important
than the IDF’s offensive capabilities.”
Home Front Command head Maj- Gen. Eyal
Eizenberg said that any future war would result in
significantly higher casualties among Israeli
civilians than past conflicts. He described the
Second Lebanon War as a “taste, but not more” of a
future clash.
The Iron Dome rocket interception system will not
be able to defend civilians in the event of attacks
from northern arenas, Eizenberg stressed.
“The home front will experience what it has not
experienced in the past, should such a conflict
erupt. We have to reach a place where the home
front is strong, and decision makers are free to
operate,” he added.
Eizenberg also had a warning for Israel’s enemies.
“Israel has offensive destructive powers many
times more powerful than that of our neighbors. I
suggest that before they power up their engines, our
neighbors weigh up their decision carefully,” he
said.
Asked by the The Jerusalem Post whether current
tensions with Syria meant that the timing for such a
national drill was less than ideal, Eizenberg
responded, “It will only advance our preparedness if
something happens in our area.”
He went on to say that responses to chemical
attacks are primarily about effective command and
control capabilities.
“That’s what we are testing,” Eizenberg said.
Gabi Ophir, director-general of the Homeland
Security Ministry, said that even though the chances
of chemical missiles are “very unlikely, we’re
taking no chances.”
Next Thursday, a day after the end of the exercise,
Erdan will brief fellow ministers on the week’s
events in a meeting that will be attended by Prime
Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.
The homeland security minister will then spend the
following two months assessing the results of the
drill.
“We will test the full range of our alert systems…
from air sirens to social media networks, to media
outlets… to cell phones. All of the tools at our
disposal,” Ophir said.
According to the Home Front Command, civilians
outdoors who hear a siren should seek shelter. If
there is none, they should lie on the ground with
their hands on their heads. If they are in a vehicle,
they should pull over and seek shelter. If there is
none around, they should follow the same steps as
above

Germans at it again.....very terrible people pretending to have changed from their wicked ways....even when I watch their footballers I still notice that aura of wickedness around them.....I am sure the case will be swept under the rug
