i believe this is the time for the international community to kick into action because this is a recipe for another bloody civil war. if left unabated bloodshed would only be inevitable.

but i wonder why do most african leaders have this sit tight mentality , you have done two terms and you then go and doctor the constitution to allow u stay longer. r u the only one who can rule

its so so disheartening
We are megalomaniacs with poverty mentality in Africa.
That is the reason

Some 20,000 people in the German city of Cologne have been forced to leave their homes as authorities defuse a one-tonne bomb from World War Two.

Schools and kindergartens - as well as the zoo - remained closed during the city's largest post-war evacuation.
About 1,100 residents of a retirement and disability centre in the Riehl area were among those taken to safety.

It is not unusual for unexploded bombs to be discovered in Germany. Allied bombers targeted Cologne in WW2.

The deactivation of the one-tonne device, which was found near Muelheim bridge crossing the Rhine river, was planned for Wednesday afternoon.

City officials said in a statement that during this time the river would be closed for shipping and the airspace would also be closed.

The bomb was found on Friday during preparations for the construction of a pipeline, according to local media.

It is believed to be an American design and was buried 5m (16ft) underground.
A 1km exclusion zone was set up around the spot where the device was found.

Hundreds of tonnes of unexploded ordnance are discovered in Germany every year.
The explosives are usually defused safely, though in 2010 three bomb-disposal officers were killed during an attempt to make a bomb safe.

In December 2011, the biggest bomb disposal operation in Germany since 1945was mounted in Koblenz to defuse two bombs from World War Two found in the riverbed of the Rhine.

I love those rugged police men who Dont care about what u are ,as far as you violate the laws of the land immediately you are giving a fair share of it

only a silly person will oppose me .diplomatics are co looters of Nigeria treasury since 1960

You are the silly person here, praising police brutality instead of condemning it.
