Seun:
Hitler, Joshua, David, Alexander The Great, Sun Tzu. They are all the same; whatever they are.
my thoughts exactly they all fought for the growth of their race/ people
im looking at the guys achievement as regards the Germany of today?
know the whole world would probably not share the same view
also heard he wanted to make africa a farm hahahaha

but not taking it away from him he had a great vision for his people and died trying to achieve it
PoliticsRe: Ribadu Fired! by Don1DeMaco: 1:19pm On Dec 31, 2007
so are government institutions now made to be discovering talents
is EFCC now a training ground for finding other Ribadus
Is EFCC now in the cloning business

Are u now comparing an officer perporming PR functioons with the Chairman of a commission set up by Law??
guy try dey give corrcet analogy to back up ur argument.
very soon now u go dey compare the posting of police details with prominent people with that of Ribadu
the EFCC is not under the police force
it was an organisation setup by the law of nigeria and the chairman is answerable only to the president and not the police. i just happens dat Ribadu is a policeman dats all.

so try dey make beta analogy pls,
unless of course u were trying to be sacarstic.
PoliticsWas Hitler A Great Man? by Don1DeMaco(op): 1:00pm On Dec 31, 2007
very touchy subject and i expect a lot of fireworks from people

But guys cant we equate Germany's greatness mostly to the effort of the man Adolf Hitler?
Not a very good history student but i ve always been of the opinion that that country is where it is today cos of Hitler

Would i be right to say dat inspite of what the whole world think about him he was one of the best things that happened to Germany?

Personally 4 me i think he was. though i ve not read enough about it to back up this opinion, i stand to be corrected and educated

And pls people try not to insult urselfs, constructive criticism would be well appreciated.
PoliticsRe: Was Nigeria Ripe For Independence? by Don1DeMaco: 12:54pm On Dec 31, 2007
nope i dont think so
cos we no suffer well well 4 am
maybe if we did we 4 value what we have now
and the civil war didnt last long enough either or else nobody regardless of his tribe would still sit down and allow some corrupt cartels to steal our wealth nad make the masses poor.
Nigerians too fear, i might be guilty of dat too cos i never challenge govt for any of their atrocities to the nigeria populace b4.

Nope we never still ripe up till now
we suppose dey say yes sir to people wey go at least develop their own part of the country dan say yes sir to all these moroons that take our money to develop other people country.

did they make this public/ announcement so that Nigerians can commend them or whathuh?

PoliticsRe: Ribadu Fired! by Don1DeMaco: 12:12pm On Dec 31, 2007
celemel:
I said it in my earlier post.  EFCC is a very corrupt organization.  My petition to the EFCC over a misdemeanour at the Cross River State Water Board Limited developed wings and flew from the coffers of the EFCC till this day. Every effort to trace it has met with brick walls erected from within.  I know of at least 2 operatives of the agency who have acquired exotic properties in real estate, luxury automobiles etc, and who's means could not have legitimately paid for such assets.  There is a big racket in the EFCC, and let me explain how that racket works.  When a petition is sent to EFCC, members of the racket (who are stationed in different departments) intercept the petition, open same, check the contents and make effort to contact whomsoever is accused in the letter.  They then proceed to contact the accused person or organization, lay the letter before him (them) and ask for his 'cooperation' so that the matter is settled 'amicably'.  If the accused has the muscle, the racket gets paid, and the matter is swept under the carpet.  The racket also promises to shield the 'accused' from any further action.  Members would then open their eyes to watch and intercept any more petitions that may come as a result of the 'settled' issue.  It happened to me!  https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-99610.0.html  Only matters that can be sustained by media razzmatazz gets treated and properly investigated.  And, it is not cheap to sustain a long media campaign against a corrupt person unless, you can afford to pay for such campaign, to keep the issue on the national front burner.

Institutions cannot function properly when they are built around individuals.  Let Ribadu go.  I guess there are so many other Ribadu's out there in the country.  No one person should be elevated to a point where he feels, he is untouchable.  The EFCC needs proper cleansing because it is corrupt; very deeply corrupt.
beautiful write up but i kind of have a problem with how this relates with Ribadu's removal.

Are we now saying that the inefficiency/ corrupt practices of some of the officers of the EFFC is Ribadu's fault. Does he now head the HR which recruit officers into the commision.

Do all case files sent to EFCC pass through his table for him to know the ones that were treated or not?
Is he now directly responsible for your missing case file?
Is he aware of the racketing going on in his organisation and decided to turn a blind eye?
Can u sincerely say that any organisation in this country can be run perfectly devoid of corrupt people who directly or indirectly try to furstrate your efforts?

in as much as i agree with u that a change of guard in the leadership of the EFCC might usher in a breath of fresh air, the timing of taking such gamble/ discission which could lead to great setback for what we are currently building is not in good faith.

If anybody has something against the man Ribadu on corruption should cry out loud and let us know instead of making assumptions. If u know he has benefitted from not investigating cases passed to his table let us know.

Yes the head is responsible for the actions of his subordinate, that i agree and if the organisation is not functioning well then it means the man at the helms is not performing no matter how hard he says he has tried, but remember this is Nigeria and the progress the EFCC has made in 8 years the police who should put such officers u talk about in check cannot make in 80 years.

I don't think majority of nigerians will agree with u for your statement "EFCC is a very corrupt organization". there might be corruption within the ranks of EFCC but that does not mean it is a very corrupt organisation. Are we now going to generalize that all organiasations are very corrupt worldwide because even within the echelon of organisations like the UN, world bank, US senate, Presidency, EU, NATO, Catholic Church, Penticostal, Mosques what have u there are bad eggs?

the question now is has Ribadu found an officer caught within the EFCC as corrupt and turned a blind eye. Has a petitioner gotten to Ribadu with his case and he turned a blind eye or used it to make money personally 4 himself?

think about it, it wouldnt be a good tactic from his end because he also has people looking to bring him down. he may be guilty of not managing his troops well going by your story but Please don't condemn the EFCC or Ribadu as very corrupt?
PoliticsRe: Igbinedion To Return? by Don1DeMaco: 7:10am On Dec 31, 2007
no they dont
politics is about doing me a favour and me returning the favour
everywhere in the world, u have to compromise
but a good politician tries at least to better the lot of the people while still trying to satify the power brokers
it happens everywhere in the world even in the US
when u have that u cannot be a totally credible man
PoliticsRe: Igbinedion To Return? by Don1DeMaco: 7:01am On Dec 31, 2007
so what happened to integrity
is he now a zombie who has to follow every instruction he is given blindly
are u trying to say everything Yar ADull says now all Okiro has to do is to comply
so much 4 holding the office of the IGP
so how will the police function if the president is corrupt and the no 1 says only yes sir to him
think about it
all uve said now is Okiro isnt credible enough to make his own unbiased judgement for the sake of him holding on to his position
and u call that a credible man who is devoid of blame
beats me

and are u now trying to say the office of the IGP is now a political posthuh
was it set up to be a political posthuh
need education on dat??
cos the president appoints u does not mean u should now say yes sir to all his needs whether they are right or wrong

president appoints the Justices in the supreme court so are they now meant to function as polical posts and pronounce bad judgements to avoid the wrath of the presidenthuh

can i now conclude that the next EFCC chairman who will be appointed by the president and answerable to the president will also do like Okiro and say yes sir to all his demandshuh? is that also meant to be a political post. meaning we can now confidently say the likes of Ibori, Orji Uzo Kalu, Fayose, Nnamani will soon be free men

cos now u are politicizing (permit my english) issues
RomanceRe: Loving Someone And Screwing Someone Else by Don1DeMaco: 6:50am On Dec 31, 2007
dont get it wrong screwing somebody doesnt necessarily mean u love the person as in u guys love
for me love is an adjective meant to qualify a verb eg
i love screwing u
i love talking with u
i love having u as a partner
i love u as if u were one of my own
i love screwing around
i would love to love ( dats if it exists)
like i said screwing is a sport so read no meaning to it
would u have had a different view about screwing if there were no STDs and HIV/ AIDS
i bet u would

as long as he keeps putting all those who have looted state funds behind bars it ok by me

but of course YaraDull has other ideas
RomanceRe: Loving Someone And Screwing Someone Else by Don1DeMaco: 7:05pm On Dec 30, 2007
are they not two different things we like to make work hand in hand
u grow to love a person, thats if it even exists
for me its just a superficial over rated word that is relative depending on the time of the day

i guess the love we are talking about is interpersonal love and it comes in different shapes and sizes

Interpersonal love refers to love between human beings. It is a more potent sentiment than a simple liking for another. Unrequited love refers to those feelings of love which are not reciprocated. Interpersonal love is most closely associated with interpersonal relationships. Such love might exist between family members, friends, and couples.

Some feelings that are often associated with interpersonal love:

Affection: feelings of tenderness and/or wanting physical closeness
Attachment: satisfying basic emotional needs
Altruism: selfless or unselfish concern for another
Reciprocation: if love is mutual
Commitment: a desire to maintain love
Emotional intimacy: sharing emotions and feelings
Friendship: the spirit between friends
Kinship: family bonds
Passion: whole-hearted desire
Physical intimacy: sharing of intimate personal space
Self-interest: desiring rewards
Service: desire to help

Sexuality can be an important element in determining the shape of a relationship. While sexual attraction often establishes a new bond, sexual intention is considered undesirable or inappropriate in certain love bonds. In many religions and systems of ethics it is considered wrong to act on sexual desire for immediate family, for children, or outside of a committed relationship. However, there are many ways to express passionate love without sex. Affection, emotional intimacy and shared interests and experiences are common in friendships and kinships of all human beings.

Hope the bolded part helps, u can express love without necessarily having sex.

Sex on the other hand is a sport, its either u are good at it or ur not. its either u are talented at it or u re not. its either u have the right and desired equipments or u dont. and all these factors determines those whose tales are going to be told for years to come and those who will disapper with the sands of time.

I can love u but still love having sex with another. two isolated events. so no need to use one to justify another though they can come hand in hand. the lucky ones are those that not only find reciprocal love but are oppourtuned to be talented and also find a talented partner. that for me is what u call a jackpot
