Duru1:since u accept that there is division, can we now say it is an igbo coup |
fallout87:stop this madness, this can help u....... You know you’ve lived in Dubai too long when you hear that Dubai Police have bought a Lamborghini patrol car – and you don’t bat an eyelid. The story made the news around the world as those less familiar with Dubai expressed variations of admiration, disbelief and revulsion. But I doubt the news came as a surprise to many who’ve lived here for any length of time. It’s Dubai – it’s Dubai Police – why wouldn’t they have a Lamborghini? With hindsight, I wonder what took them so long. Dubai Police, at the time, said they’d be using the supercar for high-profile patrols in tourist districts; that the car was more of a public relations tool – a gimmick to show tourists how “classy” Dubai is – rather than a car that would be used to hunt down criminals and haul them in to the police station. “Dubai is a unique city which has its own unique character and everything in it must express this unique character, including police patrols,” said Lieutenant General Dahi Khalfan bin Tamim, the head of Dubai Police, at the time. And, when you watch the official video released by Dubai Media Inc, and see how tourists react by videoing the car and posing with it for photos, no doubt hoping that a little of its glamour will rub off on them as they regale the story to friends back home, you can see what the police had in mind. But, a few days after we’d absorbed this information, it was announced that an AED 900,000 (£164,000) Ferrari FF was joining the Lamborghini – and that this would be driven only by female police officers. And then news broke that a Bentley and a Mercedes SLS would also be joining the police fleet. And, for me, that takes it into another level. No longer are we talking about one supercar just for show – now we’re talking about a whole fleet of supercars, which Dubai Police say will “enhance their patrolling abilities”. The reaction in Dubai has been mixed. Some have said, tongue in cheek, that they’re glad their speeding fines have been put to good use; others think the money would have been more wisely invested in a larger number of regular patrol cars. It’s also been jokingly suggested that the supercars are a recruitment drive for the police force – who wouldn’t want to have to drive those cars for work? Others question if all of the supercars can be purely for show. And that’s a valid point. Speeding is one of the biggest killers on the UAE’s roads. Last month, it was announced that anyone speeding at more than 200kph (125mph) would face criminal charges . Although there’s definitely a segment of society here that would see a supercar police-chase as a challenge, and a fine from a female in a Ferrari as a badge of honour, perhaps the new supercars have brought in to stop speedsters thinking they can out-run the police. But then some wag on Facebook pointed out the obvious way to escape the police in their low- slung supercars: Direct the chase towards some of Dubai’s many speed bumps! my.telegraph.co.uk/expat/annabelkantaria/10150357/why-does-dubai-police-need-a-fleet-of-supercars/ |
fallout87:^^^ dis guy have never travelled outside his village home. dubai as a tourism hub uses those fancy car to help complement and patrol high level tourist Street. and this fancy cars is not just exclusively dubai, countries such as England have those cars which they uses to patrol some of their street |

if gulak blame muazu, who would muazu blame ![]() |
he was just bitter that pdp collected the senatorial ticket and was given to Bala ngilari who eventually lose to APC. anyway the outcome would have been awful had it been it is gulak that is the flag bearer because it is only pdp that take a nonentity like him seriously. I know him, he won't be able to win even a councillorship post but instead Jonathan uses him to attacked G7 governors such as kwankwaso and wamakko |

The race to become the Speaker of the yet to be constituted 8th National Assembly has gotten tougher as the Kano State All Progressives Congress, APC, House of Representatives caucus has rejected the candidature of Hon Abdulmumin Jibrin. Jibril, who represents Bebeji/Kiru Federal constituency, had last week declared his intention to vie for the speakership. Rising from a crucial meeting convened by a ranking lawmaker, Mohammed Ali Wudil, which lasted between 8pm and 12 midnight yesterday, the lawmakers kicked against Jibrin’s candidacy. Those that graced the meeting were Abdullahi Mahmud Gaya, Musa Ado, Nasiru Ali Ahmed, Sani Mohammed Aliyu, Bashir Baballe, Munir Babba Dan-Agundi, Badamasi Ayuba, Mustapha Bala Dawaki, Garba Ibrahim Mohammed, Nasiru Sule Garo, Nasiru Baballe Ilah, Umar Garba, Suleiman Romo, Ahmed Garba Bichi, Aliyu Sani Madaki, Mukhtari Mohammed Chiromawa, Abubakar Nuhu Danburam, Mohammed Ali Wudil, Shehu Usman Aliyu Aminu Suleiman Goro. According to the source, “Jibrin never consulted with any of us about his bid for speakership or deputy speakership. He is on his own and should stop because it will soon backfire. “Even if he were negotiating for a position, that is not the way to go about it. We consider his declaration as insensitive, irresponsible and provocative because we have the president from the north west. “It means that nobody either in Senate or the House can contest for a presiding position as doing so will send the wrong signal to other parts of the country,” the caucus was quoted as saying. The North West is not Nigeria, and General Buhari will never have won the election without the support of other regions of the country, it added. Meanwhile, a member of the House of Representatives from Oyo State, Sunday Adepoju, yesterday called on APC to zone the speakership position to the southern part of the country. Adepoju, who joined other members contesting the speakership said that for equitable distribution of position, all the zones should be considered. Adepoju, who represents Iddo Ibarapa federal constituency in Oyo State, explained that should the senate presidency be zoned to the north, then the speakership should be zoned to the south. He said the zoning arrangement in the coming 8th assembly would only reflect the principle of federal character required by the 1999 constitution (as amended). He however appealed to APC that in the spirit of fairness and adherence of federal character, to zone the speakership to the South South region. www.theparadigmng.com/?p=30786&utm_source=&utm_medium=twitter |
