Video emerged Tuesday from Kiev of an angry mob frog-marching a member of parliament and literally dumping him in the trash. Vitaly Zhuravsky is held down by his assailants, splashed with water and buffeted by a loose tire before getting wheeled away in the dumpster and retrieved by some conspicuously disinterested security personnel.
Zhuravsky is a former member of the political party of former president Viktor Yanukovych, who was ousted following months of protests in February. Some reports suggest he was targeted because of his role in the passage of a bill in January that restricted freedom of speech.
"We live in a country where blood flows because of you," shouted at least one protester to the sprawled deputy, reported Reuters.
This attack took place on the same day the Ukrainian government of President Petro Poroshenko ratified an agreement with the European Union and also proposed self-rule for two restive regions in eastern Ukraine, as well as amnesty for pro-Russian rebels fighting there. Their separatist insurgency has raised the specter of full-blown war with Russia. Some in Kiev, particularly among Ukraine's nationalist far-right, were very displeased with the proposed ceasefire agreement.
"A capitulation was announced today in this war," said Oleh Tiagnybok, the leader of the nationalist Svoboda party, as reported by the BBC. Zhuravsky's incident brought to mind a filmed scene in April when Svoboda members attacked a head of a Kiev TV station and forced him to resign on camera.
It's unclear who the protesters who threw Zhuravsky into the dumpster were. A large group, including members of the far-right group Pravy Sektor, had earlier encircled the parliament building, demanding the passage of a "lustration" bill, which would vet government officials on the basis of their roles in the country's previous administrations, many of which still carry the stigma of corruption.

Can you expand more on this Polystyrene ceiling...is it different from PoP? Do you have pictures/model of a finished product? Is it the same as Gypsum false ceiling? Sorry for the many questions, just an inquiry mind. I need to make decisions on my new house.

ucheends: it's an underground tank. it is 12ft by18ft.we don't bet borehole easily .even 150ft ,you no go see water. on completion, the gutter from the roof is connected to the reservoir. 70k was used to dig it. sands from it and the two soak way measuring 8ft by10ft was used in filling the foundation. no extra sand, the palour was stepped down by one block.
spyder880: I will be going to this site later today, we plan to restart this project as soon as the rains stops, which could be at the end of this month. More pictures later.
FlirtyKaren: Sonia Ogbonna, beautiful wife of Nollywood actor IK Ogbonna in an Instagram post she made shaded a follower who took her son's accent so 'personal'.
Sonia Ogbonna, who shared a video of her son trying to get the right kiss from her, was told by a follower that her son is too young to develop a Nigerian accent, suggesting that she speaks to him properly or sends him to a good school.
Replying the following, she wrote;
Ace Ikechukwu Ogbonna oh take note Why would Ace sound so Nigerian at the first place? Its not like he lives in Nigeria or like he's Nigerian duhhhh From now on ,u cant sound Nigerian ,or else u will be grounded. I will also go for British English classes so we can form together But nah!
He will grow up to be proudly African,he will speak his native language and embrace his original (not impacted or westernized) heritage,with proper knowledge and TRUTH about the history of his people that many call "barbaric" out of pure ignorance and due brainwashing that came along with colonialism, so he can understand the power of blood that runs through him, have self CONFIDENCE ,so he won't have inferiority complex & need to be,act or speak like someone he is NOT. This post-colonization trauma needs to stop. Africa to the world
engrjacuzzi: if only the likes of pastor Adeboye, pastor Oyedepo, imams and others can be bold enough to confront our leaders, Nigeria would have been a good land
To fly a plane you must file a flight plan and get approval. You must also be cleared for take off and landing by air traffic control (ATC). Failure to do any of these and you might soon find yourself in the gun sights of an F16. American air force doesn't joke around especially after 9/11. America is a very litigious society, perhaps the flight school is trying to cover their lapses by blaming the pilot.
Thanks for being the voice reasoning here. It appears a lot of posters here are juveniles, hence there insensitivities and mindless ranting regarding this tragedy. The school is trying to cover their track to avoid an impending civil law suit. I heard the FBI are conducting their own investigation at this moment. Since after 911, it is almost impossible to fly a plane without approval of some sort especially in Florida.
opal4real: ANOTHER GREAT MAN.... WITHOUT REMOVING THESE GREAT MEN LIKE JAJA,NANA(NIGER-DELTA)OBA OVORAMEN(MID-WEST),AWUJALE(WEST) AND ATTAIHIRU(NORTH)....THE BRITISH WOULD HAVE FOUND IT DIFFICULT TO PENETRATE NIGERIA.
