When America was allegedly discovered and colonized by England, England did not populate her American colonies with people who were refined and cultured. All the convicts were sent in America. The prisons in England were emptied of prostitutes, thieves, murderers, whores and many different kinds of freaks. They were sent  to populate this country. When these thieves and liars arrived in America, they created one of the most criminal societies that have ever existed on the Earth since time began.

[size=15pt]Free training opportunity for African journalists [/size]
     
News - Africa 
By World Press Photo     
Friday, 17 April 2009 

African journalists are being offered free training so that they can project their own view of Africa instead of depending on foreign news organisations. The initiative, entitled Twenty Ten, comes as South Africa prepares to host the World Cup in 2010. The organisation behind it, World Press Photo, has sent a news release to this site promoting the scheme.

World Press Photo Foundation , Free Voice , Africa Media Online and lokaalmondiaal invite African journalists from different professional backgrounds (photo, print and radio) to participate in free international training in the run-up to, and during, the FIFA World Cup in South Africa in 2010.Football is an integral aspect of life all over Africa, as well as in the rest of the world. In order to give African journalists a voice, both on the African continent, as well as worldwide a new project is inspired by the 2010 FIFA World Cup , which is being organized on the African continent for the first time. Professional print journalists, photojournalists and radio journalists of African nationality and currently living in Africa can apply for the project through the website www.africamedia-allstars.net.The initiative, called Twenty Ten aims to offer African citizens the opportunity to experience their own view of African reality, as opposed to depending on foreign news organizations. This multidisciplinary media project will focus on strengthening African journalists from the various disciplines. It aims to encourage media professionals to creatively produce and distribute articles, images, broadcasts and multimedia productions related to African football. African media will be encouraged to publish the created content free of charge. At the end of May a total of 108 participants will be selected, by an independent professional commission. This group will be known as the All Stars. At the end of 2009, a select few of the All Stars will qualify to become part of the Dream Team that will travel to South Africa during the World Cup in 2010 to report on the event.Selected All Stars will first receive a four-to-six-week online refresher course, which will focus on technical and journalistic skills. Upon successful completion of the online course they will be invited to attend an eight-day workshop. The workshop will focus on improving your storytelling techniques and will stimulate the participant’s creativity to report about the role, importance and impact of football in Africa. In addition to improving general reporting skills, the project aims to ensure that the stories that the selected African journalists produce can be read, seen or heard throughout Africa and beyond. Therefore stories that are produced during the workshop will be selected, for distribution within and outside of Africa. The journalist – and, if applicable, his or her employer - will always be credited.At the end of 2009 an independent selection committee will evaluate the work each All Star has produced during the workshops and afterwards. The 18 participants with the highest quality of work will be invited to join the Dream Team. Members of the Dream Team will be invited to travel to South Africa to cover the World Cup in June/July 2010. The deadline to register and receive a username and password is 4 May 2009. After 7 May, independent experts will judge the application. There will be different teams of experts to judge the applications made by print journalists, photojournalists and radio journalists.

[size=15pt]La Ilaaha Illa Allah Muhammadan Rasuwl Allah.[/size]
There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.

Muslims call this kalimat tayyiba, “the best word.”

This is not found written like this, anywhere in your Koran! However, they are found in several verses. But they are broken into two parts; they are never together as one sentence. “Laa Ilaaha Illa Allah ” is found alone in Koran 37:35 and 47:19, and in Koran 33:40 and 48:29[b] “Muhammadan Rasuwl Allah”[/b] is found alone.
This is how it is written in the Koran of the Muslims. They are never found in the same place! Yet, the flag of Saudi Arabia (photo), which is where “the holy of holies” sit, in Mecca, has the same declaration, “the Kalimat Tayyiba”, written on it.
Many of the Islamic books, posters, and leaflets have this man-made verse. However, if you or I were to take two verses from the Koran, and put them together to create one sentence, like “La Ilaaha Illa Allah ”, they would call it shirk (associating partners with Allah) and have a heart-attack saying “as-taghfir Allah, hum min al kaafiriyn” meaning “seek forgiveness in Allah, they are disbelievers” or they will seek to kill you!

They Never think of Civilization in the World.They can sleep without no light and they will be Perfect. They can controls full cow without no problems Including Nigerians they will say Yes to anything they say. The Southern Nigerians and Eastern Nigerian they are all Civilize to the Western World How can we solve this Problem Because It is the Northern Problem that Why we are suffering. The Power come from the Northern Nigeria.

@OneNaija
Here again the Devil is opening a topic on Nairaland to didvide and rule; It is NOT The Northern Nigerians peoples who are causing the current problems In Nigeria. First have a look at the word Civilized,and where this word is originated from.Where The Africans Civilized long time ago? Abolutely not . the Africans were never civilized . To be civilized is to claim that you were '' Uncivil" at some point in time . (We The African Were The Civilizers of the world ) . Am I saying '' All Religion And Cultures And Secret Fraternities Came from Africa,from us . Yes . They all got their teaching in one form or another from the Africans . Even the sacred societies , such as Freemasons and the Rosicrucians . Astaras , Theosphical Society , Odd Fellows . Knights of Columbus and their many offshoots take their roots back to Africa.

People would call me mad when I said things like, “in your Bible there are added verses to support your trinity theory.” Christians say oh he’s crazy, or he’s mad. Christians claim that a trinity exists in the Bible, when it doesn’t. I repeat, yes, you can find the words “the father, the word, and the Holy Ghost and these three are one” in 1 John 5:7-9 in any version of the Bible. However if you were to consult the original manuscript of the original Aramic or Syriac Bible, you would find that these words don’t exist and that they were added in. If your preacher, teacher, minister, pastor,deacon or any other religious leader really cared, he would take time out to research the original language, rather than rely on poor translations. If they knew how to translate from the original Syriac (Arabic) and Galilean Arabic, the verse 1 John 5:7 that you are familiar with today did not exist. Neither did it exist in the original Hebrew and Greek that were translated from these original languages. It wasn’t until the onset of the Roman Catholic Church that this distortion was made. The Roman Catholics inserted the trinity verse when they tranlated the bible from Greek to Latin. Notice I say “inserted” and not “translated” because, as I already said, the original Greek did not have this verse. However, you will find some Greek translations that have been translated from Latin or English, and it is in these Greek translations that you will find either the whole trinity verse or only a portion of it.

1 John 5:7 is surrounded in controversy because there are two versions of this verse. So-called scholars say the verse used in most bibles today is either not the original verse, or they say that it is only partially genuine. These so-called scholars continue to argue back and forth on this subject because they really don’t want to admit that the trinity really has no basis in the teachings of Jesus.

I will refer to the Holy Bible from Ancient Manuscripts by George M. Lamsa, which is a bible that is translated from the original Aramic or Syriac language :

6 This is he who came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ, not by water only, but by water and blood.
7 And the Spirit testifies that that very Spirit is the truth.
8 And there are three to bear witness, the Spirit and the water and the blood; and these three are one.

When you read 1 John 5:7 in your standard bible, which in this case is the Ryrie Study Bible (King James Version). . . you will read this:

For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Do you see what happened?? . . . You will find that the original verse 5:7, has been actually pushed up to merge with verse 5:6.

Let the Swiss Government keep the money in trust for Nigeria. They must not release the money to the aninis (notorious criminals) in Abuja claiming to be our leaders.

The Swiss Government should make all informations avalaible for everybody to see where the money is,when the money is going and to who the money is going. We should ask for proofs and papers avalaible on the internet for everyone to see.

[size=17pt]Yashua , Isa , Jesus , Christ , Found In Egipt[/size]

What's sad is so many years have passed that most of today's Jews , Christians , and Muslims , by which ever denomination or name they go by . sect or cult . doesn't even know that their religion was grafted from Egipt . Like the Greeks who came there to study . The Roman also came to Egipt during the Ptolemy Dynasty and the Hebrews under the name Hyksos or the many tribes of Canaan . Like the Amorites and the Hittites took from Egipt and created their religion and spoon fed it to you . Where The Egiptians Civilized That Far Back ? Abolutely not . the Egiptian were never civilized . To be civilized is to claim that you were '' Uncivil at some point in time . (We The Egiptian Were The Civilizers ) . Am I saying '' All Religion And Cultures And Secret Fraternities Came From Egipt . Yes . They all got their teaching in one form or another from the Egiptians . Even the sacred societies , such as Freemasons and the Rosicrucians . Astaras , Theosphical Society , Odd Fellows . Knights of Columbus and their many offshoots take their roots back to Egipt . But in time , the racism settled in and the Caucasians , The Indians , and the Mongoloids didn't want to admit to the world that they were educated by Nubians / Negroids/ Egiptian Moors (Blacks/Africans). so they took name titles place and gave birth to what you're calling your cultures and religion today . What Group Was Most Responsible For These Corruptions ?.The most influential in your bible stories came from a group known as the '' Heka - Khasut or Hyksos who lived in Egipt for 430 years they took the Egiptian doctrine back to the Middle East ,mixed it with Sumerian doctrine and bred what you're calling your religion today . Just How Did They Do This ? .They changed names , slightly altered stories confused incidents , and mislead souls, a Luciferian Conspiracy by a group known as the Levitical preiests . Their texts are called the Kabblah , the Talmud , the Mishnah . They were Leviathanians and one of their most outstanding Kohans, priest was named Josephus Flavius Piso 37-97 A.D. also known as Joseph Ben Mathaias . One of their best tactics was translating from classical languages back to dialects so that the true meanings and roots could not be traced and many were unable to see the Egiptian language in the Semetic or Shemetic language of the scriptures , Hebrew and Arabic , Which are two false dialects , and in actuality don't even exist .

https://gtomessiah.com/gtomessiah_site/graphics/jesusegipt.jpg

The New Tesament , and Christianity were all creations of Calpurnius Piso's family . Who were roman aristocrats . It was all a play . The New Testament and all the characters in it . including Jesus , all the Josephs . All the characters and they tied the story into a specific time and place in history . Just What Did This Demonic Priest Josephus Flavius Piso Do ? You have to trace his history carefully to catch the trick . He is recorded as being a Jewish historian and a soldier in the Jewish revolt against the Romans 66 A.D. After this betrayal . he won the favor of a Roman General Vespasian . Who Authorized The Play ? The play was authorized by a historiannamed Arius Calpurnius Piso ; but originally Joseph Ben Mathaias . whose pen name was Flavius Josephus ( 37 A.D. - 93 A.D. ) The name Piso was supposedly derived from the Latin word '' Pistror '' which originally meant '' one who ground have a miller or baker '' . Piso was the most promineth family in the calpurnian clan .This man . Piso . along with other roman scribes is the true author of your bible . They created the stories and the characters ; as previously stated . they tied the story into a specific time and place in history . Arius Calpurnius Piso wrote in order the following the Gospel of Matthew 70-75 C.E. gospel of Mark 75-80 C.E. andthe gospel of Luke 85 -90 C.E. in the gospel story . Piso inserted himself by playing the role not only of Jesus , but of all the Josephs . as well . He practically enjoyed assuming the identity of Joseph . He wished to create a Jewish hero . a savior . in fictional form . He and his father before him , felt the identity of a second Joseph secretly . rearranged . as the four Hebrew letters ( Yud Vov Samech Fey ) . which in that language spelled the name Joseph . Thus , they saw themselves as the new Joseph . That is why so much of the story of Joseph in Egipt is secretly redone and inserted into the gospel story of Jesus . Piso created a composite figure of Jesus . He inserted , redrawn pictures of Joseph in Egipt , and other Jews of the bible ; elements from Essenic writings ; and characteristic of various pagan gods . Piso gods . Plagiarized the Hebrew scriptures . He especially borrowed from Isaiah whose 44th chapter was most helpful to him because that is where he received most of his ideas of Jesus being Emmanuel ( Isaiah 7;14 ) . His idea of making Jesus a god to whom everyone bowed , worshipped , and prayer to , came from Isaih . Later they created a second hero by the name of Paul . and made him fulfill the acts that they forgot to have Jesus fulfill in the synoptic gospel . So Joseph Was Really Calpurnius Piso ? By now you should OverStand that Josephus was really Calpurnius Piso and that he was the founder and Author of the Jesus story . Joseph wrote himself as the father , as Jesus , as his three sons and as the three main disciples . Calpumius piso inserted himself and his family repeatedly by number and other methods into the Gospels . He was the leader of the play and had most of the important parts because he wanted to have power over the Jews . So now you see . the whole Jesus story is fallse and so is the Christian doctrine . Then What Did He Do ? He altered history and changed books , fabricated stories and played games with his specialty language . Some of his works were History of the Jewish war . Antiquity of the Jews , and Against Apion ( a defense of the Jews ) . He took on Roman citizenship , because of their influence in the world and became the governor of Galilee which was his original home and first language Galilean . What Does Him Being A Galilean Jew Who Became A Roman Have To Do With It ? EveryThing , because hewas an associate of Paul's teaching which was to deviate from the original Hebraic teaching and combine them with Roman and mythology such as the changing his name from Saul to Paul ( Act 13;9) elimination of circumcision ( Acts 21;21 ) and disregard for the Sabbath and finally breaking the blood code or the seed code , mixing in with other group like the Romans . This is unlike the teaching of Jesus who claim that he only came to his own people ( Matthew 15;27 ) . Was He Responsible For The Corruption Of The Original Teachings ? That is correct by creating a fictition story an incident of fire worship through the holy ghost found in ( Acts 2;3 ) . About speaking in tongues and being filled with the holy ghost on the day of Pentecost altering it from the Jewish jubilee and he said the language spoken amongst them was Galilean ( Acts 2;7 ) . A form of Arabic which later became a host of other language into which the doctrine could be translated and the true meaning lost ( Acts 2;9--11 ) . Act 2;7 identifies the language at that time as Galilean , but then it is broken up into ( 1 ) Parthian ( Egiptian ( 2 ) Medes ,(Persian )
( 3 ) Elam ( Syretic ) . ( 4 ) Mesopotamia ( Chaldean ) . ( 5 ) Judea ( Phoenician ) ( 6 ) Cappadocia ( Latin ) . ( 7 ) Pontus ( Arabic ) . ( 8 )Asia ( Arabic ) . ( 9 ) Phyrgia . ( 10 ) Pamphylia ( 11 ) Egipt ( Demotic ) . ( 12 ) Libya ( 13 ) Cyrene ( 14 ) Roman ( Latin ) ( 15 ) Crete (Greek ) ( 16 ) Arabic ( Nabatean ) .

And so he is responsible for translating it from the original under the guise that a fire driven , cloven tongued holy spirit alighted upon these me in an upper room and he immediately starting translating from Galilean to other People's tongues . How does that affect Us ? It affects you like today , people are holding a Hebrew Bible and they think there is such a language and it is authentic where it's not . They are holding a Greek New Testament and they think it is authentic . when it's not , just like Muslims hold an Arabic Koran and they think it is authentic or original when it's not . This tactic of translating from the original language in which you can find the original word ending and puting it into 2nd and 3rd dialects and calling them modern standard or new version or even declaring a dialect a major language is a major form of deception and the root of world religious confusion and men like Josephus and his band of Luciferian are responsible for this . Most Of What People Are Practicing Are Fabricated ? That is correct and their books and their gods and their prophets altered and changed to deceive them . And it all came originally from [ EGIPT . ] The very Jesus they worship , adore and pray to and through , was none other than the EGIPTIAN / NETER '' Supreme Beings '' HORUS '' HERU , HARU '' The son of OSIRIS '' USIR , ASARU '' the supreme god who acted in part as an incarnation from the high supreme being ATUM and his physical manifestation Re . to become ATUM -RE '' ATUM - RA '' the beginning of the eastern light .

Yes,woman are very good in organising,women should rule Nigeria now!!!!!!!

Lagosboy:
With all due respect if you do not know something it is wise to ask before making affirmative statements. Images in that hadith refer to statutes - 3 dimensional images and not even pictures we take today.

Plane or ship being a sin is a very ridiuclous statement, when many verses in the quran talked about ship been sailed on the sea by Allah's command. When Allah said the ark of Noah sailed with his name. Please knowledge is power and enlightenement is a very good thing. It is wise to ask before making such blanket statements next time.

I mentioned Volume 7Number 838: Only,in my post,so where did Noah Ark have something to do with a Picture
                   
Volume 7, Book 72, Number 838:
Allah's Apostle returned from a journey when I had placed a curtain of mine having pictures over (the door of) a chamber of mine. When Allah's Apostle saw it, he tore it and said, "The people who will receive the severest punishment on the Day of Resurrection will be those who try to make the like of Allah's creations." So we turned it (i.e., the curtain) into one or two cushions.

So where in that hadith images are refered as statutes ??,Show Us!!

Ask the Orthodox Sunni Muslims are pilgrims committing a sin when they board a plane or a ship?
According to their hadith, yes. They are sinning because an airplane is a likeness of a bird and a ship is a likeness of a fish which would be considered making an image of Allah’s creation. (Refer to Hadith #838, Volume 7 in the section “Are Pictures A Sin?”)

Since the slave-master is an enemy of the slave, if the slave prays to the same God as the master, he is praying to the God that enabled the slavemaster to enslave him. Therefore, that God is the enemy of the slave or captive just as the slave-master is.

Jesus never took from his congregation. He never passed around a basket or tray to receive pledges and donations at the end of each sermon. He never asked for a payment. Nor did he ever tell his disciples to accept money for their assistance as found in Matthew 10:8-10: “Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.”

It is time we stop blaming everything and start looking at ourself. However, we do not want to take the initial step in the reality that we are far from an angel, because that would mean responsibility. If we really begin to overstand that everything that happens to us is our own fault and take responsibility for all of our actions, then that’s when very good things will start happening for us.

Nigeria should destroy 419 before 419 destroy Nigeria.

Police Accused of Torturing And Killing Thousands

Kano

Nigeria's judicial system is so flawed, human right groups say, that police frequently take the law into their own hands, torturing and executing suspects without trial, particularly those suspected of armed robbery."People accused of heinous crimes like armed robbery, murder and rape can buy their freedom in court," Shehu Sani, Director of the Civil Rights Congress, a coalition of human rights groups in northern Nigeria. "This frustrates the police who re-arrest these people and kill them," he said."Others are killed because they might implicate some influential people while still others die as a result of torture to exert confessions," Sani added.

Nigerian police

The accusations come on the heels of an 18 November statement by Human Rights Watch (HRW) which said that the Nigerian police may have killed more than 10,000 people since 2000.HRW called on the Nigerian government to launch an immediate inquiry into the killing in the last three months of 785 people suspected of armed robbery.Nigerian police spokesman in the capital Abuja, Haz Iwendi, told IRIN that it will take time for the police to respond properly to the accusations as they are so serious. "We will carefully study all the accusations and verify them and respond appropriately," he said.The civil rights group's Sani said he saw the police commit atrocities first-hand when he was jailed as a pro-democracy advocate under the military regime of Nigeria's former military dictator, Sani Abacha. "I was witness to situations where suspects were removed from cells and either tortured or simply executed," he said.He said little has changed for suspected criminals in the eight years since the country returned to civilian rule. "The police usually take suspects to the outskirts of town, shoot them and then tell the media that they were killed in battles with the police or while trying to escape."Sani partly blames local human rights groups for not properly monitoring the abuses. "They are not very interested in rights violations at the local level but in rights violations at the political and elitist level," Sani said.He also said the families of alleged armed robbers and rapists often have little sympathy, Sani said. "This gives the police a blank check to treat the suspects the way they do."HRW also called on Nigeria's police chief, Mike Okiro, to follow the lead of the Nigerian army who recently apologised for mass killings it committed in 2002 in Zaki Biam, in central Benue State.But human rights advocate Sani said that the army massacre was a one-off while police killings occur daily. "Tendering an apology will not change anything," he said. "The best remedy is to re-orient the police through vigorous human rights education."

Churches burnt, scores injured in Niger violence
By Francis Falola and Busola Ayodele
Published: Tuesday, 14 Apr 2009

The Easter celebration on Monday turned sour in Minna, the Niger State capital, and Gwada town as people suspected to be Muslim fundamentalists stormed some churches, causing bodily harm and destroying properties worth several millions of naira.

Niger State Governor, Dr. Muazu Babangida Aliyu

Christians all over the world earlier in the day had assembled at churches for the symbolic Galilee picnic, an event to mark the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

But the day turned bloody in Gwada, where three churches were burnt while about 26 Christians were injured. In Minna, the Niger Baptist Church was the target of the fanatics who injured five Christian youths and damaged more than five cars.

Our correspondents gathered that the incident in Gwada happened as Christian youths from all churches marched round the town, drumming and rejoicing over their ability to see another resurrection day of Jesus Christ.

It was learnt that as the procession continued, some Muslim youths, who apparently had pre-planned their action, appeared and started attacking the Christian youths, injuring some of them.

The attackers reportedly turned their attention to churches where special services and picnics were being held to commemorate the Easter.

They disrupted their activities and burnt three of the churches.

In Minna, the incident at the Baptist Church, our correspondents gathered, happened in a similar way, but the combined efforts of the Christian youths saved the churches in the town from being set ablaze.

It was learnt that two Muslim fanatics, who had hidden in a provisions shop near the church, had first come to spy on the building but they were spotted by the Christian youths who had come out of the church.

The youths, according to one of the victims, Mr. Olajide Oke, informed the church leadership, who intimated the church members.

The youths, on getting wind of the development, vowed to protect the church.

According to Oke, the two Muslim fundamentalists earlier found lurking around the church premises left and came back a few minutes later with about 60 others and they immediately sprayed the cars parked outside the bookshop with petrol, “but the efforts of the Christian youths prevented the hoodlums from setting them ablaze.”

However, three vehicles AH817SUL, EQ939ABC and AH690MNA were badly damaged as the Muslim youths threw stones and other weapons at the vehicles and the Christian youths.

Those injured were either stabbed or hit by stones, the victim said.

An elder of the church, Dr. James Ojebode, described the incident as sad.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Richard Oguche, said three assistant commissioners of police and a detachment of riot policemen were immediately sent to Gwada to put the situation under control.

Oguche confirmed the arrest of 88 Muslim fanatics, adding that they had been taken to the Criminal Investigations Department and would be charged to court soon.

The police spokesman said 20 suspects were arrested in Minna while all the injured were taken to the General Hospital where they had been receiving treatment. No life was lost.

The Superintendent of Police, David Abuo, who is also the head of the mobile police in Minna, led the operation to flush out the fanatics.

Our correspondent observed at the Baptist Church in Minna that the Easter programme abruptly came to an end when the attack happened.

The floor was also stained with blood of the wounded.

Meanwhile, a total of 43 persons were reportedly killed in separate auto accidents in Katsina and Kwara states on Saturday and Sunday.

Twenty four persons died on Sunday night while 10 others were injured at Kanbi on Bode Saa’adu-Jebba road in Moro Local Government Area of Kwara State.

Another tragedy in Katsina on Sunday claimed the lives of 13 members of a family on Funtua road, while six others were said to have died on Saturday in Malumfashi, also in Katsina State.

Our correspondent in Ilorin gathered that the accident on Jebba road occurred when a motorcycle suddenly crossed the busy main road without looking sideways.

It was learnt that in a bid to avoid the motorcyclist, two oncoming commercial buses had a head-on collision.

Though the cyclist escaped unhurt, the accident claimed the lives of 24 of the passengers in the commercial vehicles. Ten others sustained serious injuries.

As at press time, efforts were being made by the officers of the Federal Road Safety Commission, Jebba Unit Command, to free some passengers trapped in both vehicles.

The remains of the dead passengers have been deposited at mortuaries of some hospitals in Jebba, while those that sustained injuries were receiving treatments.

Though journalists could not confirm the report from the Kwara State Sector Commander of the FRSC, Mr. Yusuf Salami, but a senior officer who pleaded anonymity, confirmed the development.

In Katsina, the News Agency of Nigeria gathered that the victims were returning home after attending a wedding in Minna.

Eyewitnesses told NAN that the vehicle conveying the victims had a burst tyre and the driver lost control and crashed, resulting in the deaths of the 13 occupants, including women and children.

Only the driver and his conductor were said to have survived.

Speaking to journalists, Mallam Abdulbashir Kafinta, who lost a wife and daughter, described the incident as an act of God.

Efforts to get the reactions of both the police and the FRSC failed as at press time.

The victims who lost their lives in Malumfashi were travelling in a truck loaded with wheat flour when the driver lost control ran into a bush.

More than 60 persons were said to be in the truck coming to the North from Lagos, and some of the injured were now on admission at the General Hospital, Malumfashi.

They always call Nigerians cuz the media is in thier control and again nobody speaks out against them(Oyibos). You are talking of email you receive on daily basis, what about the once you receive from oyibos about online biz that we all know as scam. What of this online pharm store advertising viagra and all sort of fake drugs? are they from Nigerians as well.
Yes 419 is not good and can be stopped by prosecuting both parties concerned. Once they know they can be prosecuted if the deal goes sour they will think twice to venture in it.

So, if you see some oyibos doing armed robbery,does this mean that you also have to do the same?. With a mentallity like that,soon the 419 fraudster will be prosecuting the victim in a court of law if he didnt get the money.

It took me 30 mins to get to the nearest branch somewhere in Lekki, with my ATM card only to verify that someone had used a clonned ATM card at far away Isolo to swipe me of my hard earned money!!!

To clone your ATM card the fraudster need to have it in hand and pass it in a small reading machine. It can be done in 1 or 2 seconds.
Have you used your card in a restaurant or a shop to pay something recently?.Please try to remember,this detail is very important.

supported, do we think this is something that can be done and can something be achieved from this?

Yes,it can be done,if Nigerian abroad dont do it who will?. There is no choice and Nairaland is a good place to start spreading the message. But have a look at this article:  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/7991447.stm

Im also interested in protesting to Swiss banks. They should stop receiving money from our leaders. They are as guilty as these corrupt leaders are

The first thing we can do is to make a list of all Swiss banks and their "connections". The weak point off any bank is money. If they fear to loose money, customers or their reputation then they will start to listen to the protesters.
