morons. why will the woman lie, if any of you go through half of what the woman went through, you won,t even even remmember your names, not to talk of following a script, and if the husband payed the ransome, why will he wait seventeen days to do so, further complicating his wife,s life, who just delivered. some of you should stop tapping rubbish in the comfort, and safety of your small rooms abroad, tearing mouth any how.
If she saw all 6 of them killed, then they must have seen each other getting picked off. That means they were all in the same place - meaning that the moment the first one was killed, they would have turned and shot the hostage - bitch is a liar!

The day your clueless Ijaw militants will want to try anything in Nigeria, your ''beloved'' Russia will be at the frontline in supplying weapons and even military personnel no matter the level of atrocities committed against civilians.
bros, wetin Ijaw man do you na?

Stalin deliberately gave Ossetia and Abzhakia to Georgia so they could provide some instability to the Georgians, although Stalin was Georgian himself. Typical divide and rule strategy. Everyone knows Russia don't really give a phok about Ossetia's 'self determination' - they just want to send a message to NATO to stay clear of the Caucuses because Georgia was going to join NATO - something NATO cannot afford now as it is legally obliged to defend all it's member states.

This bitch is a liar! You think say Naija police/soldiers are ready to risk their lives to save person? A Naija soldier once told me that the reason Naija soldiers get routed in the Niger Delta is because no one is willing to risk their lives.

the question is: how much of the agitations of Ossetians to break from Georgia is really from within and how much of it is being engineered by Russia to even scores?
Well, The Times did an article on it a few months back and the picture was clear that the South Osettians themselves wanted independence from Georgia.

Nobody is saying that Russia is clean. They still marginalise the Chechnyans and such. But I'm just happy for the Ossetians that they are getting their wish.

You will soon see that it is not another man's headache. It is every Southern Nigerian's headache. Niger-Delta is the first situation where different tribes have come together to fight a common enemy. Let us not forget that this Niger-Delta we are talking about is made up of Ijaw, Ibibio, Efik, Isoko, Ogoni, Urhobo, Itsekiri, Calabar etc. And Igbo's will also join when the time is right.

This is pure hypocricy on the part of the West. . . . the same West is shouting for Tibet to be given independence yet when a 'break-away' republic in one of their allies wants to leave, they cry foul. . . . people like Tayo-D buy all this propaganda hook, line and sinker without even examining the issues. . . . .there is a clear double standard when it comes to breaking up countries in Europe and breaking up countries in Africa. . . . . USSR made many mistakes putting the balkans together. . . Be it Kosovo, Montenegro, Croatia, Czech republic, Slovakia, Bosnia etc, they have been breaking themselves up into more cohesive units. . . . ARE THEY THE ONLY ONES WHO WANT TO LIVE IN PEACE?. . . . . . France and Britain made many mistakes in putting African countries together, but they will NEVER allow us to break up. Why?

WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY?

I am not a conspiracy theorist, nor am I a leftist - but I am also not blind. I see divide and conquer in serious action here.

In the history of Africa, only Ethiopia and Eritrea, North and South Rhodesia split - Europe has no interest or colonial history in Ethiopia and Rhodesia was controlled and broken up by Europeans.

Desailly is no different.

As for Klinsmann, nobody said what he was doing at LA Galaxy. Bobos was just lounging in the Californian sun, probably turning up to LA Galaxy once a month whilst running his media sports company.

Don't worry, we are not the only ones who do such things. Brazilians and Argentinians do it a lot as well.

Carlos Tevez used to play with the name Carlos Martinez for his youth side because he did not want them to demand a transfer fee for him when he moved to a bigger club (as his contract would be based on false identity). Martinez is his mother's name.

Apparently a lot of South Americans do this.

Apparently, Eduardo Da Silva is not Eduardo's real name. Da Silva is his mother's name.

I guess that when you have dodgy history, you have to invent nicknames for yourself to stop people tracking you.

Thats why Ogbuke call himself Edu  grin.

If Ogbuke says Obasi is his surname, why does he have a brother who plays football with the surname Ogbuke? Infact, his brother Felix Obuke uses the wrong spelling of his surname, although Chinedu claims they are friends, not brothers. Dodgy passport!

Nsofor 'football' name has always been Victor Obinna. Thats what everyone in Italy called him from day one. There is also a Brailian player called Obinna who plays for Flamengo - and another Braxilian player called Kanu.

Steau Bucharest and Colombia goalkeeper Robinson Zapata wears the name 'Rufai' on his shirt. I guess in some tribute to Peter and because he resembles him.

Mikel's real name is Michael - he said that Nigerian FA made a mistake when they printed one of his shirts so he decided to stick with the name.

Richard Kingson and Laryea Kingston of Ghana are brothers, yet their surname has different spellings.

It just goes to show that it is not only Nigerian players with dodgy identity.

Politics › Re: To Hell With Your Oil, North Tells South by Ibime(m): 12:36pm On Aug 10, 2008
All these people saying the North produces this and that. It doesn't phocking matter. Whatever each part cannot produce, they will buy from the World Market. We definitely don't need the North's meagre production of foodstuff and the divorce will be very easy on the South because we will buy whatever we don't produce from Cameroun, Ghana, Cotonou etc. We will even buy from the North (at the same prices we are buying now). At the end of the day, it is not like the North is subsidizing the food they produce. We still pay the same price as we would if we bought from Cameroun. . . .therefore, to hell with them. Do you think Dangote will stop selling us sugar just because we split from them? His sugar will still have to come and compete for our dollars with Cuban and Latin American sugar. Their wheat is no cheaper than European wheat. If they don't sell to us, who would they sell to? Niger and Chad? lol. We are the no 1 consumer society in West Africa. They need us. On the other hand, they would have to pay the full $130.00/barrell of oil as they would on the World Market. We are the ones subsidizing them, not the other way around. This agricultural argument of theirs is an economic fallacy. If they really were that agriculturally strong, they would have buffered Nigeria from the recent rise in the price of soft goods. Economic divorce would be as easy as cutting off a cancer. Infact, within ten years of fragmentation, our agricultural sector will be stronger than theirs. And the middle-belt people will absolutely refuse to go with the North. Just ask Gideon Orkar.
