Rantings of a misinformed ignoramus.

rottennaija:
This is getting serious. How did they get missile capabilities?

So the whole period they have been granted amnesty, throughout that period of 6 to 7 years, they have been busy stockpiling weapons. No wonder Kalu spoke of the capability of biafra to launch ground to air missile

You never see anything. When we were insisting that Buhari must never be allowed to replace Jonathan, you think we were playing abi? And when it happened, instead of Buhari to apply tact and wisdom to mend fences and build bridges, he blatantly called our bluff and set about pursuing his Northern agenda and fouling the entire atmosphere in the name of war against kwarapshun.

It was only a matter of time before the boys activated their beast mode. Now, the die is cast.

Tompolo 2.0 MAX is a very dangerous version of Tompolo indeed. Buhari should have known this before using the useless EFCC to hound this sort of guy...

All this could have been avoided by simply overlooking some things. But no, Buhari wanted to form tough, no nonsense 'anti kwarapshun' robot-in-chief. Let him live with the results of his poor judgement.

alpontif:
Trust me, there is very very low Tor usage in Nigeria, and I actually made it my business to know that crucial stat.

As long as they are using Tor directly, their identity can be compromised, especially when they access clearnet sites like twitter and facebook, that involves java enablement at any point in their usage.

If they use Tor directly, their ISP will also know they are on Tor, and their Tor usage logged and crossrefernced to postings on their twitter handle.

They may be slightly better off if they use vpn with tor...just slightly ...coz their isp will not be able to know the browser they are using, but their anonymity depends again on the VPN provider they are using, coz most vpns log IPs and take down your credit card records and other data, all these can again be cross referenced.., anybody using VPNs based incertain countries I wont mention are basically f**ked when it comes to law enforcement issues, as these VPN people will provide all your details.

A better way might be to use Tails plus a Vpn and some other tools I wont mention here...That can make sure that 90 percent of the time, you dont get caught, but if you mess with State actors with enough resources, you will be caught.

Moral of the story is dont do anything illegal on the clearnet..you will be caught if state actors create time to treat your f**k up.

Lol. Much as I understand where you're coming from, I think you're too academic in your projections. There are countless 'no log' VPN providers based OUTSIDE the US, UK and their allied countries. Numerous VPN providers based in rogue-friendly places like Eastern Europe and Asia. Besides, there's Socks 5 +RDP, which I can tell you is super anonymous. Besides that, at the level of device isolation/identification, there are numerous tools like Mac Address Spoofer, Browser User-Agent Spoofer, VM Ware, Fraud Fox, etc. All these tools are even going too far, because I am dead sure that the Nigerian State lacks the resources and competence to track criminals based on Cyber Intelligence. Basic no logs VPN or Socks 5 is often enough. Is it Nigeria where even rudimentary things don't work that will have the advanced Cyber security tools and capacity to track anything?

Nigeria where useless idiots get employed into sensitive positions on the basis of connections, nepotism, 'bottom power' etc... leaving out competent people who lack such connections. A massive joke of a country.

bestsunday84:
Police are always claiming that they are superior than army, while they are civilian, but they forgot that One soldier equvelent 5 police men

You sure say your brain no need factory reset?
One mumu soldier who was smuggled into the armed forces through the back door (connections to one Emir or Senator or the other), who has ZERO passion for the job, whose ONLY motive for joining the army is to do yanga and oppress "bloody civilians", who is fundamentally and intrinsically a coward? This kind of idiot is equivalent to five of what? Even five chickens have more aggregate competence and bravery than one Nigerian soldier.

engrchykae:
Point is there a soldier in every civilian and there is a civilian in every soldier.

This point needs to be hammered into their thick skulls.

Meritocracy:
MOPOL is just police officer with more than 3 years experience and never undergo that kind army training. They have the police blood in there vain. The op said four mopol and a soldier and only torn soldier cloth but they sustain injury and still left banking hall for SOLDIER. May be we should give trial in sambisa forest.

Lol. You think the soldier actually FOUGHT with the four MOPOLS? It's still part of what I meant by 'psychological edge'. The MOPOLS surely didn't pummel him. They were soft on him as per 'he is a soldier o, let us treat him with caution o'. Would the idiot have survived even 2 minutes of full-blown, no holds barred fisticuffs with the policemen?

Meanwhile which yeye training are you referring to? Look, I know exactly what I am talking about. MOPOLS have more real world/field experience engaging with criminality and security threats daily and routinely. If not for Boko Haram that jolted the military into reality, the idiots have zero combat experience other than oppressing innocent civilians. How many wars have they fought? Abi na bread and butter peace-keeping missions for Liberia and Sierra Leone be 'war'?

I'm dead sure that my trusted Abba Kyari and his men at the IG Special Team/FSARS would do a better job of INTELLIGENTLY locating Tompolo and the Avengers than the entire apparatus of the Nigerian armed forces put together, if given that task.

JeffreyJamez:
of course you dont....till Slap connect with your old face.

Get lost. You know nothing.

carammel:
Well,we can't blame the present administration, the past administrations had every opportunity to diversify the economy but they neglected it and continued feeding on the excess gain from oil.
How will the FG diversify now with limit do resources? it is almost getting late.

Another donkey is still talking about "past administrations". Was Buhari elected to make excuses?

JeffreyJamez:
word of advice...DOnt say this outside.

Young man, I don't need your advice.

Hopey12:
Track the damn I. P of that handle....

Do you know the meaning of VPN, RDP, Socks, Proxy, etc? Which IP do you want to track? If ordinary Yahoo Boys can hide their IP from even US security agencies, wetin the incompetent Nigerian military wan track? How many generals in the Nigerian Army know how to power on or shut down a computer?

Riot policemen (Mobile Police aka MOPOL) are more competent than soldiers in this country, in every way. Soldiers merely have a psychological edge because they are made to believe they are superior to everyone else. Bunch of hopeless losers.

Useless and fantastically incompetent buffoon.

Praktikals:
Odi treatment looming. Be warned. Hand Tompolo over now, when you still can.

You quoted a question and blatantly refused to answer it. Na wa.

This is actually very scary. The same script is playing out again. This speech could have been written today and it would still have the same meaning and the same level of relevance and accuracy. Creepy!

What can the numerous pro-Buhari Zombies on Nairaland say about this?

Funny thing is that hundreds of military men were (and are probably still on) Tompolo's payroll right from the CAMP 5 days through the consolidation years under Jonathan. You needed to see his highly militarised convoy full of special breed, carefully selected, specially trained/kitted soldiers. I'm sure many non-commissioned soldiers right up to generals and other high ranking officers are/were eating from Tompolo and are loyal to him.... His intelligence would always be several notches ahead of the military high command's.

You will catch a ghost before you catch Tompolo.

Take it or leave it.

horlus:
Osama bin Laden wasn't killed by the assault on his compound that faithful day but rather it was the result of years of pain staking and careful intelligence gathering. It's not by the use of force that tompolo will be fished out. Where is our intelligence?

Your question is funny. What isn't funny is the answer: we have ZERO intelligence.

It took America years of painstaking effort to get Bin Laden because he was in foreign territory and an unfriendly/uncooperative foreign territory for that matter (Afghanistan/Pakistan). He would have been fished out in days or even hours if he had been hiding within the United States.

Tompolo is right here on Nigerian soil (or on Nigerian waters as the case may be) and yet the useless government and military are busy chasing shadows. Hopelessly incompetent system.

Sharksblow:
But, to be frank, why is he hiding?

Praktikals:
because he is a cowaRd

Ask Nnamdi Kanu, Dasuki, Fani Kayode and the other innocent (UNTIL proven guilty) Nigerians who Buhari has extrajudicially detained in defiance of court orders and judicial processes. I'm fighting hard to avoid abusing people like you who talk rubbish about why Tompolo is hiding or how he is a "coward". Use your common sense and think about the examples I cited!

Besides, how can a "coward" - a mere individual - evade a whole Federal Government with its full paraphernalia and instruments of power - armed forces and what not? Who is the real coward here if not Buhari and his incompetent buffoons in the armed forces/security services who can't fish out and arrest a mere individual?

If Tompolo comes out and subjects himself to the law, would Buhari deal with him according to the rule of law? Would Buhari not arm twist the judiciary into denying him bail? Even if granted bail, would Buhari obey the court order? Think you *&-#*!

Flets:
Unfortunately, you don't have any power to remove any government. Definitely not APC, credible elections ended with GEJ. Deal with the inconclusive elections yet before the outright rigging come 2019. You really think that Buhari after witch hunting PDP this long will hand over to an opposition...... Keep dreaming.

You're dead right. This is why I am still finding it difficult to forgive Jonathan for making such a grave, grave mistake.

The APC would be in power for donkey years even if this government is the worst in human history, except you take out BOTH Buhari and Tinubu. These two characters are pre-eminently undemocratic and have a vice grip on INEC and the Judiciary. There is zero chance that the 2019 elections would be credible, free and fair with these two characters still in the picture. Already, they have installed a senseless and hopelessly idiotic slowpoke called 'professor' (spits) Mahmood Yakubu as the chairman of INEC. A 'professor' idiot who has not been able to conduct even the smallest of state elections competently, let alone the general elections in 2019.

We're in big trouble.

lonelydora:
We need to kill corruption first and every other thing will fall in place.

This is not true. Far from the truth.

A clear policy direction and a leadership that is competent, creative, dynamic, and able to make and implement the right decisions is what is needed to make headway. I have long argued that (financial) corruption isn't the biggest problem affecting Nigeria's development. It has always been incompetence and non-financial corruption e.g. nepotism/parochialism/tribalism and disregard for rule of law.

A fairly competent government with a sound economic team was what Jonathan had and Buhari lacks. This is far more important than financial corruption or the lack thereof.

chinchum:
Lai Mohammed by a long mile.

It is quite hard to defend the govt in this trying time of the economy.

Hard times or underperforming governments bring out the 'shine' in a competent minister of information. In such trying situations, the minister's endearing manner of communicating with the public in a charismatic, likeable, persuasive manner (even if slightly dishonest) would somehow improve the public's perception of the government. All of this is where Lai has failed woefully. He has not been able to make the transition from an opposition party attack dog to a government minister of information whose party is in power. There are massive differences in job description, stylistic requirements, and general approach between these two starkly different roles.

His repugnant face alone is a turn off as it rankles beyond what I can describe in words. When he opens his mouth he fouls up the entire atmosphere and inspires nothing but disgust and contempt. Absolutely nothing likeable or believable about the man.

A more charismatic and competent minister would have made a LOT of difference.

LeStylo:
Those who watched NTA News regularly then would know it is indisputably Chikelu. He's uncompared.
He quietly resigned without raising any dust despite having the media in his grips. No one really knew his grief. I simply admire the gentleman.

Did he resign by himself or was he replaced by OBJ? I heard then that OBJ replaced him because he felt that he was too dignified and 'gentle', and wanted a more combative and attack-minded individual - a role that Nweke Junior managed to play very well.

pat077:
Chukwuemeka is my guy. Lie us too corrosive to b an information minister.

Lol. Corrosive is the word I was looking for. One of the very apt adjectives that perfectly describe him in this position.

ajebuter:
Frank Nweke jnr:

Very urbane, suave, sharp dresser and great orator.

He kept me glued to the screen whenever he was mouth-piecing for government then.

.
He was suave and articulate alright but also too condescending, arrogant and a bit too heavy handed in his 'attacks' against critics of the Obasanjo government... Just how Obasanjo liked it, I must add. He was at his arrogant and combative best in the build up to the abortive Third Term Agenda.

paulsado:
DORA did very well while in office,she used the word great people,great nation,to promote Nigeria in general.

No doubt, that's why Goodluck inherited her from Yar'Adua and retained her until she voluntarily resigned to pursue her botched senatorial ambition.

ITbomb:
I remember the days of Prof Ofonagoro (I hope I got that correct). He defended the military with charisma, no lies and very convincing

Ofonagoro was very good while serving under Abacha. Carried out his duties with much dignity and charisma, without having to insult the public.

I'm sure everyone agrees that the worst ever is Lai Mohammed, using any indices:

- Believability (zero)
- Charisma/likeability (zero)
- Persuasiveness/Slickness (zero)

It has gotten to a point where Lai Mohammed's discredited face is a source of disgust and cynicism for almost all observers whenever he appears in the media. No one wants to hear whatever drivel he has to say because it is expected that he will lie or insult sensibilities with his characteristically arrogant and distasteful demeanour. The man is now clearly a waste of public space and a colossal liability to Buhari's government.

I'll nominate the genteel, persuasive, and highly dignified Chukwuemeka Chikelu as the best minister of information so far since 1999. He had a way of passing his message across elegantly and defending the government of the day (Obasanjo's) persuasively without offending sensibilities and arrogantly talking down on the public. Too bad Obasanjo had to later replace him with the brash and combative Frank Nweke-Junior because he felt that Chikelu was not 'harsh' enough.

Other candidates include:

Frank Nweke-Junior
Dora Akunyili
Labaran Maku
Prof Jerry Ghana

What do you think?

Well dont expect a General, Admiral, Toomuch money van, Senator, Gov, Presido, criminal on awaiting triyal etc to be carried like a regular civilian... They are all vips so no rules breaking there. Just exception.

Just look at this idiot. Disgusting thing.

Ronaldinnioh:
I think you need to ask God for wisdom. Do you know what went wrong that required the Male Doctor to deliver the woman her baby.I think Religion should be out of Medicine. It's the woman that seeker the Doctor's consent not Him forcing himself to the woman. The woman knows what it means to save life. I can remember the day Accident occurred in Dubai, a female nurse came and Did CPR cardio pulmonary Resuscitation. Of which she has to breath in Oxygen with her mouth in the accident victim's mouth. I think religion should be out of Medicine when life matters most.

Take your own advice.

talk2dre:
Lol ...I do enjoy such adventures too.
Please, what kind of powerbank is that?
I also have a rechargeable-fan and I will like to try your trick.
Anticipating ...

Actualy I have tried this twice. The first was with a 90,000MAH Laptop powerbank (those black Zinox powerbanks called INEC battery), used that for my large rechargeable standing fan.. Walahi it used to last at least 19 hours on a full charge and at the highest rotation of the fan. I rocked it throughout last year (at least 8 months) until the yeye fan packed up.

The current arrangement is a normal phone powerbank., 20000Mah (although could be less)connected to a small tabletop fan.
