Bad news

thoth:
Buhari though with a clean record, it will be wholly unwise for Nigerians to vote APC at the moment, I wouldn't vote Buhari even though he is a good man,for the sake of Nigeria.

Why not?

Exactly why don't they rally against imperialism against Africans by the French army?

This goes to show that no matter how much you try and integrate and give your child an Christian/western name like Matthew and wear Eurpean clothes or have an education from a western University, you are still black and will be treated like a NIGGER SLAVE!!

A police officer pleads for mercy before being shot in the head by masked terrorists

How do you have an ID card when you plan to kill people?

If you slow it down to .25 you can see the blood in the police officer's head.

This is coming in when I'm watching the PDP campaign. Mr. President is dancing, his citizens are dying.
It's highly essential to note that these people called Boko Haram are from the devil and do not represent any religion
Evil is what they preach and anyone that kills his fellow human for no reason shall end up in hell fire.
May God protect us and our family from having a share of their evil aswell as any evil in 2015.

Less prayer more action, God hasn't protected us for hundreds o yeas, lets solve our own problems.

The hooded gunmen stormed the offices at 11.30 am Paris time (10.30 am GMT), reportedly having forced a staff member to open the door at gunpoint.

“They shot Wolinski, Cabu… it lasted about five minutes… I took cover under a desk… they spoke perfect French… they said they were Al-Qaida,” cartoonist Corine Rey, aka “Coco”, was quoted as saying by the weekly Humanité. The woman told the paper she was the one who let the men inside, with them pointing a gun at her.

A witness, Benoit Bringer, told TV station iTELE two black-hooded men were seen entering the building with Kalashnikovs rifles, with "lots of shots" being heard a few minutes later. One of the men was captured on video shouting "Allah!" as four shots rang out, Reuters reported.

As for the Igbo people. I heard they had a very advanced democratic system, especially the Nri kingdom. I don't know much about the Igbo people. I know more about the Yoruba.

Sorry.

Why can't we build our own warships and military equipment? I thought we were the giant of Africa.

Why do Africans have white weddings how many Europeans have African weddings? I guess we still slaves.

Army says three plotters killed after presidential palace in Banjul came under attack while president was visiting Chad.

An apparent attempted coup by a group of Gambian soldiers while Yahya Jammeh, the country's longstanding president, was abroad in Chad, has been foiled, military and diplomatic sources have said.

The AFP news agency, quoting military sources, on Tuesday said three coup plotters, including the alleged ringleader, had been killed in the capital Banjul.

A Gambian diplomat said the presidential palace in the heart of the small city on the Gambia river was attacked at about 03:00 GMT by armed men including members of the presidential guard.

"They wanted to overthrow the regime," a military source said. The government denied reports of an attempted coup.

"Police and the army are now entirely in control of the situation," a military officer told AFP on condition of anonymity.

The pre-dawn assault triggered panic in the tropical city, while national radio went off air for several hours and state television was suspended.

Jammeh told Chadian officials he was returning home, a senior Chadian official told the Reuters news agency.

"He is going back home," said the official, who declined to be named.

Jammeh took power at the age of 29 following a coup in 1994.

Former vice president of the country, Bakary Darbo, told Al Jazeera it was too early to say for sure if it had been a coup attempt.

"I hold on to the view that there have been two incidents of gunfire, whether it amounts to a coup we will have to see," he said.

"[President] Jammeh wields considerable powers, many of it unconstitutionally. There are supposed to be checks and balances, but in reality all of these have been encroached upon.

"Gambia now is very much a one-man dictatorship."

Gambia is a tiny former British colony surrounded by Senegal on both its northern and southern borders.

Human rights activists say Jammeh's government is repressive and has targeted political dissidents, journalists, and gays and lesbians.

Thoughts?

RedBenson:
I doubt if that can ever be the case in this part of the world when a big man would buy something from a poor dude and can not even leave the N50 balance to the poor dude. Are those the kind of people that will share their wealth with the poor communities?

That is part of capitalism. People being greedy and only caring for self and not others.

RedBenson:
Bro, i only made known of what is obtainable in Africa and Nigeria precisely. How many rich men in Africa have you heard of them giving out some of their assets to the poor? Instead of that, they rather look on how to steal more from the poor. That was my point.

That is our problem we need to be selfless instead of selfish.

RedBenson:
Are you a learner? In Africa (Nigeria precisely), everyman on his own o. No dey dia dey deceive urself for dis con3 abeg.

Typical African response, selfish person only caring about theirself and what is in it for them. That is how foreigners enslaved us. Due to selfish people only caring for theirself and not anyone else. If we cared about our communities and making them better then we would be in a better situation globally. But us Africans just want to impress people with French champagne, German cars and Italian clothes.

"Why does the Black man say, 'freedom is doing what I want to do!' and why is it that every thing he 'wants to do' enriches the European?" - Dr. Amos Wilson

Why is having a big house a meaning for success? Why can't the goal to make the continent of Africa better or building schools, institutions, free housing for the community etc.

African people are selfish look how this Chinese millionaire build free houses in his village.

We maybe down now but we could still be on top tomorrow.
If you find two men fighting you would be premature to label any man weak just because he is on the ground with the other man on top of him. As long as he continues to fight he may still demonstrate his strength and get back on equal terms with his opponent.

We are strong because we have endured a lot and are still in the fight.

In the literal sense we are physically strong.

GenBuhari:
Who said African men are weak?

We are the strongest men.

How are we strong we let the entire world put us down and don't do anything about it. We let people do us bad without any consequences. How are we strong?

Does Goodluck Johnathon ever go to Igbo or Yoruba shrines?

ROSSIKE:
Kwanzaa was a holiday devised in the USA. It was never brought to, or promoted, in Africa the way christmas was. Not sure what ''world African community'' you're talking about. Expecting Africans to celebrate Kwanzaa is as foolish as expecting African Americans to celebrate the New Yam festival.

Why can't peopkr bring Kwanzaa to Nigeria. Also did you know some African Americans celebrate Yoruba Orisha holidays like shango festival? They would want to celebrate new yarn festival.

Crocz:
What is Kwanza?

Is it a pastry?
