The ABC7 I-Team has learned that Olajide Oluwaseun Noibi, a 24-year old Nigerian national also known as Seun Noibi, is a self-proclaimed "storyteller, strategist and designer who is passionate about reaching the world for Jesus" according to one of the numerous corporate websites and social media pages that list his affiliations.

Noibi claims to have an office on Chicago's Southwest Side.

Noibi, who informed U.S. Transportation Security Administration agents that he was a 2008 graduate of University of Michigan, claims to be a frequent air traveler according to scattered comments that have been posted under his various identities. Many of them list his affiliation with the university.

"3 days, 3 cities, Chicago, Detroit and NOw i can spy with my little eye New york city from this Sheraton at Liberty Int' l Airport in NJ!" was the verbatim of one such social network posting this month. "When i told God to use me i didn't know he'll take me serious. Here I am. Use more of me. Meetings right into my birthday on sunday and then back in las gidi, for the Diko and Friends in Concert and Album Launch. It can only be God."

Noibi is the purported founder of the "Unleash Abel Institute," said to be located at 1245 S. California in Chicago. Since last October the organization claims to have been "introducing students(8-12th graders and college bound) to professional careers in business, technology , and the sciences."

He also turns up as principal executive of Unleash Media Inc and Unleash 9JA, "a movement of independent thinkers, artist, musicians and filmmakers propagating the african experience" according to one website.

He had a stolen boarding pass and ID card according to the FBI and was arrested Wednesday at Los Angeles International Airport. In addition to the stolen ID, authorities say Noibi had up to 10 old boarding passes containing various names.

He was arrested after attempting to board a flight from Los Angeles to Atlanta; five days after passing through layers of airport security at New York's JFK airport to board a plane with a day-old boarding pass. It is unclear why he wasn't arrested then.

In the Saturday incident, authorities say Noibi boarded Virgin America Flight 415 at JFK bound for LAX.

He was found on the plane after it had taken off and was in flight, in a seat in the aircraft's "main cabin select" area. When asked for his boarding pass, Noibi produced a boarding pass and ticket for a Friday flight that was not in, stated an FBI agent.

According to ABC News: o n that pass was the name of a man with the initials M.D. After tracking down and interviewing him, the FBI learned that M.D. had lost his home-printed boarding pass from his back pocket, which had been folded into fourths, once he arrived at JFK via subway Friday. Once he discovered it missing, he obtained a new boarding pass from a ticket kiosk and boarded Flight 413.

very weak screening process!!!

who will benefit from all the commercial goodies anyway? wont it mainly be the team based in lagos? The league might get more supporters but the vast majority of commercial interest will be for the lagos team

[/quote][quote author=kcjazz link=topic=701628.msg8619375#msg8619375 date=1309398210]Yes we need a club in Lagos. The city is the only Nigerian city where immigrants are more than local natives. Lagos has only won 2/39 titles in the NPL, issue is not about giving them a free role because they would compete Continental too in the Africa Champions League. As long as the present model is not working, we have to consider change and tap into the Lagos market. Yes, Julius Berger used to play in the league but again NFF never leveraged the marketing for the team

Any particular reason why the NFF ( regulator) be marketing for a team? dont they have their own management who should be responsible for this?

Just maybe the teams irrespective of where they are based are not an attraction for the private companies, their mileage is too minute, plus most companies dont have customers outside of Nigeria anyway

The contracts for sponsorship should be re-modelled so teams can market themselves and their stadia without another round of court cases with Glo- they are in the habit of always throwing tantrums with court cases over everything they sponsor, they want to control everything like they are doing the teams a favour or as if NPL/NFF cant get others to match their offers

An album should be made then sent to the hierarchy or GEJ should be tagged with these pics on Facebook, I think the NPF has a page on Fb too!! they should see their yansh outside!!!

Earning above 18k right?

Let's assume a corporal earns 30k (which is very unlikely) [b]with no other meaningful welfare package, and he has a wife, several kids [/b]and he's given a loaded AK47 to stand on the road and enforce laws; u honestly expect a hungry wretched man like that to fight crime right?

Free accommodation
Life Insurance
Free staff school

not enough but at the same time not enough excuse to abandon their job!

the ones who arent in the police force.

N50 vs bombing, pogroms, kidnapping and armed robbery- i guess N50 means more to you.[/quote]collecting bribe on the street does nothing to their image, i wonder what posting their picture would do to it

not like they have an image to protect anyway going by their behaviour

what does the picture of a drunk policeman has to do with bombings etc

[quote author=tpia@ link=topic=701927.msg8618026#msg8618026 date=1309376952]well obviously whoever took the picture did so with malicious intent.

expect more bombings, armed robberies, kidnappings and heightened criminal activities soon.

this is meant to erode the police image and people's confidence in them.[/quote]and collecting N50 from drivers, shooting commercial drivers or innocent passengers is meant to restore confidence

expect more bombings from who; the police?

Anybody can just clip or capture a movie and post it on nairaland. Where did you get your source and when? Ignorant mind wil just start commenting and jumping in to rubbish conclusion. Na wa for nairalander o

yea police collecting bribe is also fake, people are painting the nigerian police black

All you haters she has been cleared and I was impressed with her level of intelligence concerning the petroleum sector and she did perform very well even when some senators like  Abdul Ningi asked a very S.T.U.P.I.5 tribalist question regarding appointments into the NNPC, No matter what most people think I believe she will do a good job, so pls go hug a wet transformer for all I care.

The only thing we ever seems to do is come here and pretend like na we holy pass, am sure most of you will not do well if given the chance, na for cyberNigeria we sabi proffer solutions to Nigeria's problems, QEDAll you haters she has been cleared and I was impressed with her level of intelligence concerning the petroleum sector and she did perform very well even when some senators like  Abdul Ningi asked a very S.T.U.P.I.5 tribalist question regarding appointments into the NNPC, No matter what most people think I believe she will do a good job, so pls go hug a wet transformer for all I care.

Why is it stu.pid to ask her about appointments in the NNPC, but its okay to question the previous MD,ministers about appointments in the NNPC
it's okay to be tribalist to others but silly to turn the table around?

sky-rocketing price of kerosene is not exactly performing very well, local content is still at the same stage it was, she has been very good at signing off contracts though

I dont know too much about information cult but I know ANYONE can use the information to their advantage, it is upto the other to make a superior argument with their own information/statistics and convince the neutral party

A lot of energy, time and resources are wasted in an information less society, even behavioural patterns are altered due to lack of information

on a normal day,
I can check the weather for the day, to know what sort of jacket I'd take to work or take out in the evening-heavy, light or just normal, you dont want to be looking like a plonker carrying your heavy jacket around inconveniencing yourself and others when you could have checked the weather earlier before you left home;

I can check the exact time or a pretty decent estimate of when the next bus is coming to my nearest bus stop and when it is likely to get to the rail station to get the train i want. If i don't know the route i can check or even avoid lines that have scheduled repairs going on-

I can check surrounding petrol station to know the cheapest ones even though the different might only be 10-20naira
After checking the route to a particular destination you can get information about roadworks, festivals or other important information that can affect your journey- all these saves time, money AND A LOT OF STRESS!!

on many occasions you will wonder why students find it difficult to apply for universities without going through someone in the university
sometimes even basic information on when the school will resume, when exams will be taking place when the semester will be over to plan a vacation all these will affect other plans by the family, which will affect something else, so everyone is groping in the dark or having to pay someone for things that should be available

Applying for a license is another horrible one, you have to approach an official(waste of time,money), the forms are not available online, the process wont be explained so you know when exactly you can get it, and some Arrow on the street can stop you and flatly tell you your license is fake even though they issued it to you! i read somewhere how customs are stopping people on the highway seizing their cars saying their custom papers are incomplete or some levy has not been paid

But then again they say information is power the people responsible for providing these information dont want to lose this power- Ego, illiteracy, local champion

_{very interesting topic, I've read it five times now, still don't know how to where to start from!}

But like a Nigerian politician would say 'it's unfortunate'

Subscribing

Will any you guys move back to Enugu permanently from where ever you are based in Nigeria if the rate of development is sustained for the next four years?

C'mon, at least we can't see an empty or half-empty bottle of ogogoro, beer or Brandy. He's probably just having a siesta.

Is this how responsible people have siesta? In Public, On the Floor, With his Gun unattended to?

cogitoErgo:
To prove in any court of law that this policeman was drunk, can this picture stand? I dont know who is realy dumb here, but must we all just jump into judgement because somebody posted a picture! Com'on let us be reasonable for once!

You should be reasonable
Sleeping on the floor is not responsible most especially with your uniform on
Leaving an automatic weapon unattended to in public is not reasonable!

First time I'm seeing Tsonga play without loosing concentration!!

I was told by my dad that those who have their voter ID card can only apply. A kind of compesation for those who voted the gov in. It's absolutely rediculous. I can't apply cos I voted in lagos.

doesnt make sense, there are no name on the ballot papers

The jobs are most likely, unskilled, probably something like lastma, kia, etc better than nothing i suppose

Chei chei , i know say some one;ey somewhere dey touch something.So na Chrie Aire this woman go fall for!!! ; ;

You have not seen all her jewellery? they look exquisite!!

That's her biggest achievement when she was in the sold minerals dept- signing an agreement with a jeweller to market design our gemstone

Year after year teams play to remain in the premier league not matter how much revenue they get, they travel up and down competing to enter the premier league

It will be unfair to just bring one particular team from the lower league into the premier league-
Teams from Lagos should use their money to buy the best players so they can make it into the top flight


Look at QPR, they got an investment from F1 money bags and some rich friends, they set a target of 5years to get into the premier league
look at them now they finally made it

Andre Uweh:
The Sarakis see ACN as a Yoruba party as they are pro Hausa-Fulani. They do not want any thing that is Yoruba even in their pattern of dressing as you can see in this photo.

keep ya conspiracy to your region
oh please have you seen Mohammed Dele Belgore's dressing?

I read about the company on some business website.

for those that have used their service or those that work there on this thread, is it possible to do everything online including payment without having to call customer service once you have your card

how are the tickets delivered or can one pick them up at the airport or email?

Compared to traditional methods of buying ticket are they cheaper?

perhaps because it got completely derailed with personal insults/tantrums and considering you were not making further enquiries you got the advice you wanted already from the more sensible comments

Not a single pothole, and look at the street light and road signs- not a single graffiti

[quote author=ekt_bear link=topic=701562.msg8611344#msg8611344 date=1309298571]I'm not even sure why anyone bothers listening to this family anymore. Look at all the measurables. . . life expectancy, education, etc. Have the Sarakis done well? Kwara is simply not doing well and could achieve much more, imo.

Their stewardship of the state over the past 40 years or so has not been very good[/quote]yes actually, chances are you don't have the indices or the stats to state otherwise. Saraki jnr was governor for two term, Saraki snr was never a governor of the state he was just a 'big name' in there, just they way OBJ can throw his name about in Ogun state

But I agree Kwara could achieve much more just that the illiteracy levels, population, revenue was never in their favour from the get go

petaling:
Next Newspaper collected 10 million from one oil coy for the defamation. I was told by one source familiar with the transaction. All the stories about her emanated from Next newspaper. I wonder why such newspaper should descend so low.

sounds like you've been reading naija newspapers too much!

Nigeria is a very funny place, you ask for investigative journalism, you get it then blame it on tribalism, cabalism, yada yada yaaa
when journalist interview naija politics we shout disrespect, CIA,FBI insider, racism
Some of these politicians will commit suicide if the British journalist ever get their time

who is haunting Jonathan
who is haunting Ibori

funny enough if this case was about some mallam or someone from another region it will be business as usual

now we hav a new law that mandates they all gets training and certification and anyone with a criminal record with be automatically disqualified from being certified as a bouncer.

that city is well behind the time

the journalist should try to actually get the side of the other story, Bi-Courtney have been blaming the ministry ever since knowing they wont make a statement

otitokoro1:
I think Jimoh is displaying a sense of practical business person,

A borrower is a slave to the lender, Dangote owing banks makes him a packaged poor man in make believe,

Owing banks when you can pay back is wrong BUT LENDING FROM BANKS TO GROW HIS KIND OF BUSINESS IS SMART BUSINESS!


in fact lets look at dangote and jimoh when this statement was made and Look at them now

as they say you can pay for school but you cant buy class- Jimoh should keep shouting about his paid for weekend classes at Havard
