Some idiots here beating war drums have never seen the devastating effect of a hand grenade, talkless of a mortar. I actually supported gej but he has conceeded, the next thing to do is to try and maximize opportunities the incoming govt willbring for us. That been said, I hope God gives buhari the wisdom to deal with these militants cos they cannot be fought fire for fire. Nobody wants to start a gun fight on an fpso. So they should be attended to in the most logical and diplomatic way

Believe me, this guy will vote for Jonathan. Forget all those stunts he was pulling before election

Thank God for siriusblacks thread, i know better. There is a whole new dimension to this bokoharam issue Nigerians dont know about, but in the end we will win and come out stronger

I still dont understand how the debate will be biased. Are they not going to ask them the same questions? Is APC not going to be fully represented at the venue? and we dont need a judge to tell us who did better, people round the world would be watching. Someone pls explain. It is ridiculous for buhari to avoid this debate because i was hoping that he will explain how he will reel out hes welfare scheme and jail corrupt nigerians. Jonathan doesn't even need to say much cos i know some of his policies that are actually working and the rest that are not working. We know jonathan can buhari just give us a glimpse of himself? Please.

May you tomorrow be better than your today!If you get that right you will know that know body knows tomorrow,but you can project tomorrow empirically .Obj is a complicated personality within the Nigerian political space.So am not a fan of Obj,he his fighting for his own survival .You call him a Navigator because of the information at your own disposal,the amount of information at the door step of people that made him their navigator is different from the information you have which maynot be real.I have taught about him many times ,because he helped to install Yaradua and Yardua rejected him after?He helped to install Good luck and Good luck rejected him after?so for you to reject somebody that helped you to such positions means the man must have some issues .Buhari came to fight corruption and maintain discipline,so you dont know why you did what he did back then.But it affected lagos and its people

My people, politics is not permutation and combination. U dont know y he didt/u dont know wether he will do it/ u dont know what he is doing, all those things shouldnt be for a country that should move forward. Let this man come and explain to me how he will fight this corruption first. Then let jonathan come and explain to me how he will improve the country. Simple. Not all this rubbish campaign from both parties. PDPs campaign sef is beginning to have more substance and to think they are the black sheep.

rozayx5:
can you identify any of the projects below

or its among the 3 you mentioned above

those roads in rural areas, akpabio does not even commission most of them , like fashola does with 100 camera men

Bros dont even argue with that guy. Everyone who has been to akwaibom knows that akpabio did a 70/100 job with infrastructure. Other areas are lacking sha but the man really worked. Not all these 2 naira roads we are seeing here. Fashola too tried but i dont like that he is criticizing the FG when all that he is saying is exactly where he is defaulting.

olas24u:
Do you know the Hospital in Lagos in Ikeja?LASUTH ,it powered 24hrs ,you can do surgeries,the mortuaries are freezing the dead people easily.And it can be found in all strategic places that are needed to improve the socio and economic conditions of the people

The plant at lasuth generates power in kilowatts. In my office, we generate up to 8 megawatts of electricity. I nor like bobo o!

gunther6:
actually bros you can decentralize power and the idea of a national grid is oudated. in more civilized climes private sector have a license to generate and sell power which is summarily taxed by the government. so watch and learn...

http://www.fingrid.fi/en/powersystem/general%20description/Power%20System%20in%20Finland/Pages/default.aspx
That's to mention but a few. The national grid is regarded as an issue of national security in all developed countries I know of

olas24u:
we have examples in Lagos brother,You dont need to go to the moon and come back sir,the solution is simple sir

Bros pls could you be kind to just give me one address of the one they built in Lagos. I know the one at ikeja close to pwd and I know the one at Lagos island. Please educate me of others I don't know of.

Lol. How can you decentralize power? There are such things as the national grid. What? So he will just summarily decentralize the power and light go fly enter our house? Ok o.

The problem I have with some Nigerians, even the educated ones is that when they see facts staring them in the face, they still go ahead majoring on the minor and minoring on the major. Someone posted on how long it took the Japanese to perfect their rail system and are even spending more time and money on upgrades. To build those wonderful rail systems u like, u need public/private partnership. To bring about that partnership the govt needs to make the players interested by showing them how high the demand is. To demonstrate this the govt has to start from somewhere. Those locomotive engines the govt bought were built in 1991 the newer one is 2011. Now in 1991 those countries u envy were already running on standard gauge rail system. What were ur leaders doing all those years? Now this guy has started somewhere and has created a right platform for progress and some people are still condemning it. I'm not a fan of Jonathan neither am I a fan of buhari but we should learn to analyze issues objectively and with purpose.

I support Jonathan. But this is wrong and should be taken down by the mods immediately. If its true, its wrong cos u don't expose such confidential info on the web. It even shows the guy has some level of trust for our Nigerian healthcare

Equalizer 2000 though. The gun looks like a fvcking organ. Cant believe I actually believed that sort of gun existed.
But this one is a little recent-lock stock and two smoking barrels. Was really crazy.

arresa: Why do people like you insult and pollute our senses with your collective and ridiculous absurdities?

Talk about medicine after death...

Ebola showed up in Nigeria back in July, they promised to release funds weeks later and not right away, but the funds didn't show up until September when the whole episode was over and done with...

[img]http://4.bp..com/-0EON-o48cUU/VBtZCwxOGUI/AAAAAAADj-E/crO1S0hh28c/s1600/aa.png[/img]



Below was back in August when Lagos state was solely battling Ebola in August. No funds was sent to Lagos and non was released according to the state government..









So, where was the Federal funds when the virus was raging in Lagos?

Where was the federal funds when Lagos state government was staffing and equipping facilities test and detect?

Where was the Federal funds when Lagos state government built isolation units in Lagos state?

Ebola is a very dangerous virus that no society should ever be burdened with, but we are glad it happened in a place where they have credible and assertive leaders with great sense of duty and dedication and also with foresight to support their efforts with critical funds needed to battle the disease...

Not some worthless, useless and lying incompetent people releasing funds well after the war was won and over with...

But bros ehn, I don't understand all these things u re saying. The reason for creating State govt, and local govt, is to bring the govt closer to the people. So that been said, the lasg min of health did their job, the federal ministry of health did their job. Every one was on point here. Lets stop politicizing this issue abeg

No no. Not in this century. Why would anyone need to waste money to use an airplane, in this age of modern RC technology? A simple phone call would suffice. Explosives is out of it, except maybe explosion from other flammable substances.

The FG should just infect them with a strain of EVD that isn't contagious and release them. Dem no dey watch 24hrs ni?

YoungDaNaval: Met This Pweety Gurl One Night Within Ma Street. I Quickly Stopped Her And Was Throwing Some Of Ma Dry Jokes. While She Was Laughing, I Was Sweet Talking Her And She Was Responding. We Finally Gat To A Conclution That She Should Come Know Ma House Since Itz Within The Vacinity. When We Gat To Ma Place, It Started Raining Heavily(OMO ME THANK BABA GOD 1ST). The Nature Of Rain Is Clear Proof It Aint Gonna Stop In The Next 5hours(YOU KNW DAH KIND RAIN NA). So She Decided To Spend The Night Though Me Already Know Say Na Runs Girl Sha. But The Funniest Thing Dah Night Was When Am Tryna Make A Move, She Quickly Resisted, Hold Ma Hands And Be Like "BEFORE, I'LL ALLOW YOU TOUCH ME, THERE'S SOMETHING I WANNA TELL YOU". I'm All Earz Dear, I Replied. Then She Continue "YOU SEE, I GOT RAPED FAR BACK IN JOS, THATS WHY AM NO LONGER A VIRGIN.". Lwkmd!

I swear you wan kill me with laugh oooooo!!!

This is no joke. Everyone in the country has to be highly vigilant now. That bomb that went off might have been planted by a fellow student, or a small kid, or someone who was promised some bucks. (maybe like 20k cos poverty in the north is crazy). I think the government should start educating communities on security issues, basic security awareness cos that's where the battle will be won to begin with.
there is nothing that will stop these guys from bombing any other state in this country cos they are been pummeled by the military right now.
its very easy for anyone to walk into anywhere and plant an ied, so vigilance is key here. Am saying this for the insensitive lot that think that this is restricted to the north.

Tbliss12: D days of " three Orange Men of Mirinda"

oh man! Those days were good.

Lol... Then it was called "rewiner" not rewinder

lokito: One small mushroom church wey I visit last month with my elder sis say make I go pray to my baba God. 30mins later, pastor blow small breeze people begin fall like mango leaves, I no gree fall

Small time Pastor waka near me, hold my head push, push no way. My sis dey under anointing dey gimme sign to fall I no gree. Next thing pastor put leg behind me, push me heavily I stagger small still no fall. Jeez!!! Pastor still dey waka come near me. Na give am Flying Van Persie nodding omo everybody under anointing get up sharperly. Na Pastor come dey for ground under my own violent anointing. Nonsense

crazy dude. Lol

Sometimes I just wish some things that happen in movies could be real, cos if i wielded some sort of superhero power, that GM would be kissing his job goodbye. The govt might react to this, but they might take too long. Me i want results now now.

Top 10 Most Poisonous Animals in the World

Here are ten of the most poisonous animals in the world! From the Box Jellyfish to the Puffer Fish! Look really closely at each photo, cause next time you meet them can be the last thing you ever see!
1. Box Jellyfish


venomous Animals

The top prize for “The World Most Venomous Animal,” would go to the Box Jellyfish. It has caused at least 5,567 recorded deaths since 1954. Their venom is among the most deadly in the world. It’s toxins attack the heart, nervous system, and skin cells. And the worst part of it is that jelly box venom is so overpoweringly painful, that human victims go in shock, drown or die of heart failure before even reaching shore. Survivors experience pain weeks after the contact with box jellies.

You have virtually no chance to survive the venomous sting, unless treated immediately. After a sting, vinegar should be applied for a minimum of 30 seconds. Vinegar has acetic acid, which disables the box jelly’s nematocysts that have not yet discharged into the bloodstream (though it will not alleviate the pain). Wearing panty hose while swimming is also a good prevention measure since it can prevent jellies from being able to harm your legs.

Jelly box can be found in the waters around Asia and Australia.



2. King Cobra

Poisonous Animals

The King Cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) is the world’s longest venomous snake – growing up to 5.6 m (18.5 ft) in length. Ophiophagus, literally means “snake-eater” as it eats other snakes. One single bite of this deadly snake can easily kill a human. This snake is even capable of killing a full-grown Asian Elephant within 3 hours if the larger animal is bitten in a vulnerable area such as the trunk.

It’s venom is not as toxic as other venomous snakes, but King Cobra is capable of injecting 5 times more venom than black mamba and can result in mortality up to 5 times faster than that of the black mamba. It is quite widespread, ranging across South and South-east Asia, living in dense highland forests.


3. Marbled Cone Snail

Poisonous Animals

This little beautiful looking Marbled Cone snail can be as deadly as any other animal on this list. One drop of its venom is so powerful that it can kill more than 20 humans. If you ever happen to be in warm salt water environment (where these snails are often found) and see it, don’t even think of picking it up. Of course, the true purpose of its venom is to catch its prey.

Symptoms of a cone snail sting can start immediately or can be delayed in onset for days. It results in intense pain, swelling, numbness and tingling. Severe cases involve muscle paralysis, vision changes and breathing failure. There is no antivenom. However, only about 30 human deaths have been recorded from cone snail envenomation.


4. Blue-Ringed Octopus

Poisonous Animals


The Blue-Ringed Octopus is very small, only the size of a golf ball, but its venom is so powerful that can kill a human. Actually it carries enough poison to kill 26 adult humans within minutes, and there is no antidote. They are currently recognized as one of the world’s most venomous animals.

Its painless bite may seem harmless, but the deadly neurotoxins begin working immediately resulting in muscular weakness, numbness, followed by a cessation and breathing and ultimately death.

They can be found in tide pools in the Pacific Ocean, from Japan to Australia.


5. Death Stalker Scorpion

Poisonous Animals

Contrarily to the popular belief most of the scorpions are relatively harmless to humans as stings produce only local effects (pain, numbness or swelling). However, the Death Starker Scorpion is highly dangerous species because its venom is a powerful cocktail of neurotoxins which causes an intense and unbearable pain, then fever, followed by coma, convulsions, paralysis and death. Fortunately, while a sting from this scorpion is extremely painful, it would be unlikely to kill a healthy, adult human. Young children, the old, or infirm (with a heart condition) are at the biggest risk.

Death stalker scorpions are spread in North Africa and Middle East.


6. Stonefish

Poisonous Animals

Maybe Stonefish would never win a beauty contest, but it would definitely win the top prize for being “The World Most Venomous Fish”. Its venom causes such a severe pain that the victims of its sting want the affected limb to be amputated. It is described as the worst pain known to man. It is accompanied with possible shock, paralysis, and tissue death. If not given medical attention within a couple of hours It can be fatal to humans.

Stonefish stores its toxins in gruesome-looking spines that are designed to hurt would-be predators.

Stonefish mostly live above the tropic of Capricorn, often found in the shallow tropical marine waters of the Pacific and Indian oceans, ranging from the Red Sea to the Queensland Great Barrier Reef.


7. The Brazilian wandering spider

Poisonous Animals

The Brazilian Wandering Spider (Phoneutria) or banana spider appears in the Guinness Book of World Records 2007 for the most venomous spider and is the spider responsible for most human deaths.

This spider is believed to have the most potent neurotoxic venom of any living spider. Only 0.006mg (0.00000021oz) is sufficient to kill a mouse. They are also so dangerous because of their wandering nature. They often hide during daytime in highly populated areas inside houses, clothes, boots, and cars.

Its venomous bite causes not only intense pain, the venom of the spider can also cause priapism – uncomfortable erections lasting for many hours that lead to impotence.


8. Inland Taipan

Poisonous Animals

The prize for “The World’s Most Venomous Snake” goes to the Inland Taipan of Australia. Just a single bite from this snake contains enough venom to kill 100 human adults or an army of 250,000 mice. Its venom is at least 200 – 400 times more toxic than a common cobra. The Inland Taiwan’s extremely neurotoxic venom can kill an adult human in as little as 45 minutes. Fortunately this snake is very shy and there have been no documented human fatalities (all known bites were treated with antivenin).


9. Poison Dart Frog

Poisonous Animals

If you ever happen to be running through the rain forests somewhere in Central or South America, do not ever pick up beautiful and colorful frogs – it can be the Poison Dart Frog. This frog is probably the most poisonous animal on earth.The 2 inch long (5cm) golden poison dart frog has enough venom to kill 10 adult humans or 20,000 mice. Only 2 micrograms of this lethal toxin (the amount that fits on the head of a pin) is capable of killing a human or other large mammal. They are called “dart frogs” because indigenous Amerindians’ use of their toxic secretions to poison the tips of their blow-darts. Poison dart frogs keep their poison in their skins and will sicken or kill anybody who touches or eats it.


10. Puffer Fish

Poisonous Animals
Puffer Fish are the second most poisonous vertebrate on earth (the first one is golden dart Frog). The meat of some species is a delicacy in both Japan (as fugu) and Korea (as bok-uh) but the problem is that the skin and certain organs of many puffer fish are very poisonous to humans.

This puffy fish produce rapid and violent death..Puffer’s poisoning causes deadening of the tongue and lips, dizziness, vomiting, rapid heart rate, difficulty breathing, and muscle paralysis. Victims die from suffocation as diaphragm muscles are paralyzed. Most of the victims die after four to 24 hours. There is no known antidote, Most deaths from fugu happen when untrained people catch and prepare the fish.

og2711: Not to burst your bubble but this ship is neither new nor one of a kind. There are dozens in existence used to move the hundreds of semi submersible rigs all around the world....

those are anchor vessels not submersible ships

Seriously, that guy no try, cos that chick no really hit am with force. She just hit am as woman dey hit, assuming say she hit with seriousness or she used a weapon e for different, but the guy really used his manly strength on her. Not too good sha. Dunno what I woulda done in his position sha

Na WA for Nlers sef. Campaigns are paid for by the individual after he has won, not before. The funding for this campaign is mostly external. That's how its done all over the world na. Ahn ahn

Fashola is the only credible presidential candidate APC can fly come 2015. If not, sorry for them.

voltron: Good! at least make this known.. what is so hard there? build confidence and awareness and lessen anxiety by letting people know that having a healthy immune system outside washing hands and disinfecting clothes is another means of preparing against EVD.

yeah, regular hand washing, good sanitary practices, maintaining a high immune system, and early discovery will help fight this crap.

voltron: This is why I fear Nigerians greatly. There innate ability to hide the truth. UK France and US are open about the drugs they have and how they are made and the effects on their patients. But Nigerians. No they won't say a word. Tomorrow you will hear that 20 new cases have been confirmed and we would start asking questions. Thanks for asking this one now bro

THEY ARE NOT USING DRUGS!! They treat the manifesting symptoms and the individuals immune system takes care of the rest. That's provided the individual has not started hemorrhaging
