nice, it is being developed by silverbird
but starting price
$400k!!

It's targeting rich people that's why the price is so high.

Laughing my booty off

I guess I'll take up the challenge

I'm last

You don't get my point. I mean I was subjected to such an act, but white people walked past without any problems. Only Black and Arabs were targeted. It's ridiculous. If I wanted to blow up an Airport I could do it easy, so why do they treat me like a terrorist, is America so Insecure. Scrutinizing young Negro Kids and letting white folks walk scott free.

In some Airport in America, I was asked to take my shoes and socks off, while other passengers walked by. I shold have sued them, but nahhh

All those thieves have enough money in their accounts to make the Forbes Top 10

Money that could have being spent on better things. The money belonsg to every Nigerian not in their Big fat Wallets

@ Seun If you think George Bush is destroying what America stands for, then you don't know what America stands for!!

America is an economy fueled by Power and Resources. Ronald Reagen stood his ground in his time, and Bush is standings his today.

There is not a single American leader apart from Jimmy Carter, that has ruled Legitimately and Adequately. Ronald Reagan, one of America's greatest leaders, didn't respect Human rights. Milhous Nixon, America's 37th President isn't indifferent from George Bush. Nixon tampered with the Media and his crimes are generally known as The WaterGate Scandal. However America would be very much different today without him. (Reference [url]http://www.nixoncenter.org/publications/Program%20Briefs/vol5no27barone.htm )[/url].

Today America's Unemployment is at 4.8%, poor, but it could have being worse If Bush's Admin didn't subsidize many of America's most prominent Companies like GM, Ford, American Airlines to enable that they remain Players in the World Market.

George Bush is controversial, but that is how America runs, it is a secretive economy that protects itself. The Second Gulf War is more than a war, 9/11 was more than a terrorist Attack. America is now seeking to get Oil from Alternative sources, Nigeria has overtaken Saudi Arabia in Oil Exports to America. America has destabilized the Middle East so much, that nothing else can be exploited without notice.

George Bush is a Traditional American Leader, just ask any Republican. American Leaders will always induce Instability to suit their convenience. George bush is an Idiot, I mean 12% of America's Population live below the Poverty line, in 20 years Ghana will have better stats than that. However George Bush is simply doing what is wanted from him.

[size=15pt]Dokubo -Asari condemns hostage taking [/size]


TONYTOTONY ITA ETIM, Port Harcourt

LEADER of Niger Delta Peoples Volunteer Force (NDPVF), Alhaji Mujihad Dokubo-Asari has condemned hostage-taking and kidnapping in the Niger Delta region.

The condemnation was contained in his goodwill message to the people of Niger Delta to mark the 2007 Isaac Boro day.

Dokubo-Asari said that the unfolding scenario in the Ijaw and Niger Delta territories have convinced him that reactionaries and counter-revolutionary elements have hijacked and diverted the struggle from its original course to a destination that will not be in the best interest of our people.

He further lamented that "In our case what have we turned this effective and noble tool into? We turned it into a conduit pipe leading to easy money extortion to restore back dignity. Today, we waste valuable lives for the sole purpose of satisfying our insatiable greed. Nobody takes us seriously anymore.

"Whenever we take hostages, they say leave them, "when we give them money them go leave them." Even we are not ashamed. We boast to others who refuse to join our banditry and criminality that we are in the struggle when we are actually the enemies of our people, struggle and territory.

We will stand condemned in this world and in the hereafter, if we do not turn away from the path of disgrace,  we degenerated and deviated from the path of nobility, honour and dignity?"

The struggle, Dokubo-Asari noted has lost focus because of ideological bankruptcy as many have even taken the name and memory of their great soul to 419 and extort money from government, corporate organisation and individuals.

"Do we need to rubbish and desecrate all our sacred icons for a few pieces of silver?, Dokubo-Asari said.

The detained leader stated that NDPVF is an organisation with a strong bias against corruption, ideological prostitution and political moral bankruptcy and those who want to continue to claim to be part of the organisation, must urgently read its mission statement and change their lives and behaviour.

"By our rules, we will denounce you. There is no longer any room for "we no go chop?" We are not your parents, relations or a charitable organisation or an employment agency. You cannot force yourself on us and insist that you must be part of us when you are not ready to abide by our rules. We will not allow you to put sand in our garri. Enough is enough or you would be shown the way out," warned Dokubo-Asari.

He advocated for the setting up of a government in exile by the Ijaws and Niger Delta indigenes in diaspora and pointed out that most struggles for the liberation of occupied territories are led by persons in diaspora.

"Brothers and sisters, the victory for the struggle for the liberation of our people can only be realised if you seize this opportunity and orgnaised yourselves into a vanguard for the propagation of the fundamental issues at take in our quest for the restoration of our independence and dignity.

This is the best news that has come out of Nigeria in a while. Dokubo speaks the truth. Yes the people of the Niger Delta were and are neglected, but Militant groups like MEND are not Addressing the issues that need to be solve; Adequately. On the contrary they are adding to the Problem.

Prior to the emrgence of the Niger Delta Militants(Freedom Fighters) The Region was in poverty, but relatively peaceful. Now the region is in poverty and at War. Do they expect to quench the thirst of their people via extortion?. The very resources they plunder are the very things that can rescue the peope of the Niger Delta from their sorrow.

This should be a battle of leadership, not a scramble for resources. They should revolt and Overthrow corrupt leaders, not sabotage development.

These are the best words to come out of Dokubo's mouth.

All these thieves should be hanged

That was a joke My friend. I was trying to be funny.

I posted that a long time ago. Nothing has changed. I was just joking.

Here's another stat.

Nigerians in Diaspora have the biggest mouths. They think they are Royalty, hence they speak nonsense

Donzman:
@dblock

Afa Creek Bridge in Cross River is not the Niger Bridge, do you know the traffic volume that goes through Niger Bridge everyday with the costant hold ups?

Hopefully they know what they're doing though!

I never said it was the Niger Bridge. I was simply posting a Pic, because some people questioned if Gitto was active in that Genre!

Deja Vu dey do me oh
