BetaThings: You are one of the worst liars I have ever seen. You are prepared to condone evil and justify it when it is done by people you like

In 1988, Congress passed and President Ronald Reagan signed legislation which apologized for the internment on behalf of the U.S. government. The legislation said that government actions were based on "race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership"
http://www.internmentarchives.com/showdoc.php?docid=00055&search_id=19269&pagenum=2

That legislation said there was no military or security reason for their internment which caused huge losses to those Japanese Americans

No removal or relocation of Japanese-Americans was ordered in Hawaii, where a third of the population was of Japanese descent. German/Italian Americans were not relocated on account of the suspicion that they would spy which was the actual reason for putting the Japanese in those camps. And we know that it would have been easier for Germans/Italian who look like regular Americans to spy



Who now is the idiot or slowpoke? A decent person would apologise
Only a nitwits reads a comment isolation.
The comment was in reaction to japanese american IN AMERICA. US was at war then & any apology thereafter was because they respect the rule of law. Gather your wits together Bro....ignorance is not an acceptable excuse for being foolish

BetaThings: In theory you are right. But there has never been a any crisis between people of different religions that has never been classified religious in Nigeria
If the people fighting with Beroms in the North were christians, they would still have maintained same position. But it would not have been termed religious

In reality, It is one thing to be a member of a community and another to be influential
Otherwise muslims would have been able to dissuade France from banning the Burqa?
There were Japanese American living in America during WII; they immediately became enemies
Its idiots like you that confuse the uninformed.
They were classified as enemies immediately after the bombing & killing in Pearl Harbour & Philistine occurred by THE POPULACE & AND WERE PLACED IN CAMPS so that they would be protected in case an aggrieved idiot decided to take the law into their hands as your slowpoke brothers are doing presently....nonody persecuted them eventually though(they were mostly xtians)

cap28: I cant beleive someone with limited analytical skills can refer to someone as a "nitwit".

Your way of reasoning is very shallow - perhaps if you could try and stretch yourself a bit and learn to look at the bigger picture you would understand what i am talking about - america and europe have so much blood on their hands that they are in no position to condemn any nation or any people for so called savagery - this is a fact that is obvious to any one with a brain - this is why i referred to the recent events in libya where thousands of people were killed - the US govt in collaboration with britain and france dropped 100 tomahawk missiles on innocent men women and children in libya in JUST ONE WEEK ALONE !!!! ARE YOU AWARE OF THAT?? HOW IS IT THAT A COUNTRY WHO COULD COMMITT SUCH AN ATROCITY CAN STAND IN JUDGEMENT ON OTHERS - ARE YOU THAT BRAINWASHED THAT YOU CANT SEE THE BLATANT HYPOCRISY THAT IS STARING YOU IN THE FACE - JEEZ!!!!

SO I TAKE IT THAT YOU ARE HAPPY FOR AMERICA TO CONSISTENLY RA.PE, DESTABILISE AND BOMB WEAKER NATIONS BACK INTO THE STONE AGE BUT YOU WILL GO CRAZY WITH RAGE ABOUT A FABRICATED STORY WHICH YOU HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING IS TRUE OR FALSE.

for your information the US state department have an agenda to recolonise the entire african continent and all of its resources in order to force china out of africa that is why AFRICOM was set up. it is embarrassing that foreigners know this and yet africans like you remain ignorant and keep bleating on about fabricated rubbish.
You must be extremely intelligent.......so US woke up one morning & decided to bomb Libya back to stone ages because they called Jesus gay?
A protest when US was bombing Libya would make more sense from all these other nations than senseless killing of innocents now.
The spark for this debacle is not the bombing of libya but the killing & demonstration of illiterates in Arab countries.
Learn to call a spade a spade.
The inciting factor wasn't the libya bombing but the controversial video

American is the one causing instability in the world, guy gö study international politics without bias & u 'll see things for your self. All the fighting American involved itself in the middle east is for selfish reasons. Iraq - oil, Libya - oil, Afghanistan, Pakistan - drugs like Cocaine, Heroine & Opium for their pharmaceutical company to mention a few. Why is it its only American in war front invading Arab nations? Why not Germany, France or öthers, Ʊ got τ̲̅ȍ study international politics very well for u τ̲̅ȍ understand.

Only part I don't understand is how you equate oil & cocaine & heroine to Religion.
Why are the Arabs not fighting back as a nation? Why are they fighting back with Mohd as the reason?
We all read history & know that the only religious war fought in the 20th century was fought by the senseless clan called Muslim as Guerilla warfare.

cap28: GBAM!

also who was responsible for destabilising and destroying libya - resulting in the death of over 100,000 libyans?

who gave Sarkozy the green light to send french troops to Ivory Coast to kill thousands of ivoriens and destabilise the entire country?

who was responsible for destabilising Rwanda which led to the massacre of 1 million rwandans in a space of just one month?

who financed and trained the butcher Charles Taylor who went on to butcher thousands of his own people?

many nigerians are just sleepwalking through life with no clue about what is going on around them.

So the answer to all these questions is the - THE GUY THAT MADE THE FILM?

If oil was in the north...it would have been a case of xtain exploiting Muslim. But now its in Niger Delta & the only tenable excuse for feeble minds like yourself is the fact that they're exploiting 3rd world countries.

People are caught breaking sharia law even in islamic countries....does that mean you wipe out their whole tribe or country?
And those breaking these laws are muslim who should know better.
The fact that whoever did this isn't. A. Muslim should tell you that he doesn't care what you think or do so the wise thing would have been to keep quiet & enlighten other or better still get him.
And some idiots keep saying all those rubbish talk about someone insulting your father or parent....so you'll go & kill the persons friends(not even Father oo or even Relatives) or even his countrymen anywhere you see them right?
People don't play by the rule anywhere in the world...that's why we have laws to get those that can be caught.
Did you see the US state bombing every Muslim country immediately after the Sept 11 bombing or was any Muslim killed as a reprisal after the bombing?
So easy to nail US as the "xtian" country but you peeps have mosques & all there & throve their in your millions & then turn around to call them the "enemy" state.
Pope John Paul 2 was shot by a Turkish Muslim....how many Muslims died for that? Not even 1. I'm almost sure you never even heard of it.

olat4cash: Firstly Islam is not a religion of Peace as some Muslim proclaim.it is the religion of submissions and from dat peace will come.

This movie "Innocence of Muslims" about which my heart and tongue have no strength to convey to you all what insults and slanders they have borne on the Beloved Prophet Muhammad(peace and blessings of the Almighty be upon him and his pure progeny),is nothing more than a Media War,a Stone thrown at Muslims,an attempt to agitate Muslims,a Mockery to cause Muslims to become violent,A Socially engineered switch which has been timely activated on September the 11th 2012 to achieve calculated results at the International Social Stage,a win-win situation for the enemies:To portray Muslims as Violent,and/or to slander and defame and mock Islam.

So protest peacefully,although hearts are enraged and fists clenched,grit your teeth and bear it patiently,and punish not anyone except the aggressor who made this film,who promoted this film,and who conspired at its centre.
And your Lord is Mighty,The Lord of Retribution. "Innocence of Muslim" is a movie written,directed and produced by an American-Isreali called Sam Bacile. He has portray the Prophet Muhammad(SAW) as a child abuser and so many other blasphemous names&character. A'uzubillah. This act must be condemned by all Muslims in d world. May this man and his accomplice never see peace in Their lives ameen. La'anatullahi ILAIHi. Pls BC this is the least you can do.



As for haters of Dis religion German Scholar

Islam & Terrorism,He Said:
Who started the First World War ?
Muslims ?
Who started the Second World War ?

Aborigines in Australia ? Muslims ??
Who Destroyed Hiroshima & NagaSaki

Who Killed More than 50 Millions of
Indians in South America ? Muslims ?
Who Took about 180 Millions of African
People as slaves & 88% of Them Died and
Was Thrown in Atlantic Ocean ?
Muslims ?
No,They weren't Muslims at all.
First Of All,You Have To Define Terrorism
Properly...If a Non-Muslim Does
something,It's Crime,But If A Muslim
Does the Same,He is Terrorist !!!
So Go and Remove This Double Standard
and Then Come To The Point.
The part you don't get is that nobody shouts Islam or Muslim normally. So when a man steals a billion here..do you hear anyone talking about his religion? NO.
But when you steal a million or kill two people & the only reason you can give is that you're taking it from the infidel as a good muslim....so you think that person shouldn't be tagged as a religious bigot?
Americans dint kill the Indians as a religious war & certainly not on religious basis. Did Hitler fight a religious war? The problem is the fact that you can't kill anyone at all under in the name of God(either for God or to protect God) and you'll see ANY christain supporting the person.
Pope John Paul 2 was shot in 1989 by a Turkish Muslim and not one Muslim was killed in retaliation. Even in Islamic countries,people still break the Sharia law knowing that the penalties are stiff. Would it be right to burn down buildings & destroy lives because a 30year old man threw a hand grenade at an american vehicle or Abused God? The issue is to condemn the killing and it is not to expect that people should respect your religion. There are too many people in this world for someone to expect that people should respect their religion-na ur fada get the world? Each to his own opinion
There are over a billion xtians & you think that ther won't one or two who for reasons of his own wouldn't want to forment trouble?
No Muslim would dare to do such because he/she would be totally ignored...& that's what the Muslims should learn to do.
Its like pleading that no one should steal money or commit adultery again.
We all know what obtains even in Sharia Controlled countries.....no amount of laws or killings would stop this. To some people....starting something like this is just fun and rampages & killings would not stop this from repeating itself the same way laws haven't stopped stealing and Adultery even in Sharia states.
Why not go to war & kill everyone whenever anyone of you break ur sharia law....that should even be worse than this video now....this is a case of a muslim who understands the Quran now breaking the word of the prophet that's a direct insult on the prophet of course...you can burn his whole.

you want to compare the siri on ios-6 to google's voice search on jellybean? siri is now integrated with facebook, twitter, etc(you can update your status on those social media now with your voice)....google voice cannot do that! apps can now be opened with your voice on apple, google cannot muster that yet!

then notifications....apple can push notification to the lock screen....
itunes vs google play is no brainer.....apple has a store in almost every country in the world

then you look at the transition of the operating system from one upgrade to the other....apple users can get this easily but the jellybean fans are @ the mercy of their network providers. abeg, apple trumps jelly-bean, its not even funny!
Nicely said.....I really do hope apple would go down but I can't deny the fact that they'll probably outsell all their competitions with this new iphone 5.
With all ur hype about Siri....you should know that it works presently in less than 16 countries(no gainsaying that Nigeria isn't one of them)
The new apple map is yet to even cover uK & the voice navigation becomes an ill child once you step out of London.
And you should know that itunes just became available in Nigeria THIS year and contents accesible aren't all that.
Samsung S3 uses a propietary S Voice & NOT Google assistant as you erroneously thought....& it works here(I'm assunimg you're in Nigeria,though I could be. Very wrong). Also assuming you have one of them or you're even PLANNING on buying one

From the SAD twisted human being that sat down and wasted his time and energy to put pen to paper, the sad twisted people that invested in him to the poor actors that were involved (and according to cnn duped and redubbed).

acidtalk: I would have followed the crowd to conclude the story doesn't add up if I hadn't read 2 of the accused (leshi's comment) on this same thread.

The poster sounds as confused as the accused (leshi). She lacks knowledge of how to express the whole scene and what transpired at the venue.

Leshi on the other hand is even expressing himself life a street tout using meaningless slangs.

In my own reasoning, I believe this is what happened.

* Leshi thought he had become a genuis when an idea came on how FLP could sell their products online.

* He sold the idea to a coupt of staff who inturn told others about it.

* They agreed to invite people and charge them for the interview which will cover cost of the hall, materials, and other logistics.

* They also agreed on a sharing formular between all parties involved.

* voola, leshi posted it on nairaland and people fell for the bait.

* the day of the interview came and the (invidible CEO of FLP surface). All this while, he had acted not knowing what was going on.

* He took advantage and disgraced leshi and his team members.

Questions;

* Why didn't the CEO also bring out members of his company who planned the whole crime with leshi from the onset.

* will he claim he wasn't aware of the arrangement from the onset till that very date?

* let him point out those criminals in his company that also participated in the crime.

* can he prove he isn't using leshi to resurrect his FAILING Forever Living Product in Nigeria?

Leshi was used as a scape goat which he fell flat for because of his greed.

faithin9ja: That's problem with Nigerian youth today, jump on a bandwagon without understanding the issues. For your information I reside in Nigeria and do business in both Nigeria and other countries, including Ghana, Uk and US. I have bank accounts in Nigeria, Ghana and UK. I also employ people in Nigeria and pay salaries.

Instead of thinking of how we will increase the income of Nigerians you are thinking that pieces of paper are the problem, or how many 'zeroes' behind a currency. Anyway I can't blame you, I blame IBB for his failed education policies because many of the those who graduating after 1993 are just brain washed poorly educated, pastor chasing follow follow. Anything your pastor or Iman talk is all you do. Think for yourself young man. You can still find the 10 kobo coin minted 40 years ago, where are notes made 3 years ago?
You can easily spare us your elderly advise and information on the countries you've been to....doesn't make you a wise man or an authority on economic issues.(Half of you so called rich in Nigeria are just stark illiterates with stolen public funds).
Security is still a major challenge.....power....road....educationad almost all sectors are collapsing and the next best thing that can happen to the COUNTRY is this debatable 5000 naira note.
In all your various sojourns....it is well know that it is only Nigerians that spend cash in abroad. Haven't bought anything over a 1000$ with cash before in the US. What's the idea behind the cashless policy if we are still rolling out 5000 naira notes? Thought that was the reason behind the cashless policy? Less cash so as to have money trails and to monitor all these corrupt politicians and heartless businessmen.
And you can ask yourself what happened to our 5k and 10k coins that were introduced and even the 5naira notes self.
The 40billion should be used to fight corruption and build infrastructures and probably to remove nitwits like you who hide behind the anonymosity of social networks to proliferate garbage out of their mouth and still have the audacity to challenge right thinking people calling them 'youths'.

PoliticsRe: Bank Customers Can Reject N5000 Note – CBN by infolekan(m): 2:56pm On Sep 10, 2012
5,000 Note

I don’t give a damn whether N5,000 note is introduced or not. Only those who are likely to benefit from the booty would give a damn. I don’t see how the introduction will improve my personal economy or that of the nation. None of the proponents of the introduction of the N5,000 note starting from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to the highest echelons of Aso Rock has even made the case that the introduction of the note will improve the Nigerian economy. Not one of them! The only thing I have seen so far is a desperate defensive posture to whatever well-meaning people say. They keep telling us that the introduction of the note will not cause inflation. OK, fine; will it reduce inflation? Or strengthen the value of the naira? Or turn the naira into a convertible currency? So what boost will this move give the Nigerian economy to warrant this desperation to spend a princely N40 billion on its production?

If we have N40 billion disposable fund as a nation at this critical time, it is hardly on such trifle idea that we should be spending that kind of money. In spite of all the talk and promises, the nation’s electricity problem has actually worsened since Jonathan took over power. Our obsolescent infrastructure begs for heavy investment: it has been estimated that Nigeria needs an investment of $10 billion yearly over the next 10 years in order to join the modern world. We still have no transportation system and our refining capacity, for a nation of 167 million people, has become a joke, as we now rely on countries like Niger Republic for our fuel needs.

The most intractable issue of our time is the current security challenge. The entire nation has been taken over by hoodlums because our police are ill-equipped and poorly funded. In the last three years, the police have not received up to 20 per cent of their approved budgets and we only need to compare the quality of weapons used by our police with those of Boko Haram or the Niger Delta militants or even armed robbers – who, these days, use grenades to rob banks – to know that Nigeria doesn’t stand a chance. So, if we have N40 billion to spend, it will certainly not be to print fancy N5,000 notes. Our current police strength of about 360,000 is scandalously inadequate for a population of 167 million people.

To start with, to have a fighting chance of surviving our current insecurity mess, Nigeria needs at least one million well-trained and equipped policemen to match the threats of all the militants and kidnappers and armed robbers that have currently declared a war against the Nigerian nation. And if we have any disposable N40 billion, this is one of the projects we should be deploying our minds towards.

A major problem the Jonathan government and all those associated with it face is the trust deficit among Nigerians. The turning point for Nigerians was at the point of the revelations that came out in the wake of the fuel subsidy removal uproar. By the time it was revealed that all those who had hidden under economic principles to support the president’s plan to remove the subsidy were economical with the truth – it was eventually exposed that they knew about the theft of N2.6 trillion in the name of subsidy payments at the time they were heartlessly pontificating on economics – whatever credibility they had collapsed. So, even if they mean well on this idea of spending N40 billion to print the N5,000 note, Nigerians already think the idea is corruption-driven. That is what happens when government people lose credibility. What Nigerians believe is that the idea of the N5,000 note itself is driven principally by the N40 billion. Or, putting it more plainly, what would be made from the N40 billion contract, which many believe will not be less than N10 billion. And this is a very, very conservative estimate.

This corruption narrative of the N5,000 note doesn’t even end there. Many believe that the N5,000 note makes it very easy to share bribes as it is easier to carry. For instance, N2.6 trillion corruption money is easier to carry around in N5,000 notes than it will be in N1,000 notes. And it would be much easier to share bribes to delegates in 2015 in N5,000 notes than the current N1,000 notes. That’s just basic common sense or, as the Americans would say, it’s a no brainer. Well, if the proponents of the N5,000 note want to deny this assertion, then, they should make N5,000 coins instead.

There is nothing that those who want to spend N40 billion to produce N5,000 note will say that will make sense. The world’s biggest economy, the United States, used to have $1,000 and $500 bills but they have gradually been phased out and their current $100 bill is their highest dollar denomination. The distribution of the $1,000 denomination was discontinued in 1964, and the $500 bill in 1969. The reason that was given for stopping these denominations was that they aided drug traffickers in their trade. This would be like saying that the N5,000 denomination will aid corruption and election rigging in Nigeria.

Those who want to produce larger naira denominations in Nigeria are only being clever by half. They should work on the Nigerian economy to gradually phase out the N1,000 and N500 denominations instead, and make the N100 note our highest bill. But they will not. The stakes for them are really quite high.

Its funny & quite unfortunate when we see everything that has to do with culture as being retroprogressive. Whatever works for you is more important than trying to generalise issues here. The white man does it when he's proposing and you don't hear him complaining that its demeaning or debasing. Do we always have to flog ourselves out to reason things?
I've never asked my wife to do such and I'm quite certain that an average person wouldn't ask his wife to but then the same average person wouldn't complain if she does.
Half of the people claiming its an oppresive culture are the ones that are personally responsible for half of the problems the country is going thru.

And I'm not even interesting in the vibrator thingy. the fact remains that her death was largely PREVENTABLE. had she exercised a little common sense, there's a good chance she'll be in her Kaduna office right now enticing her clientele with her enchanting smile.

whether you like it or not, there will always be unpardonably evil men in this world who take obvious delight committing the most heinous of crimes. While it is true one cannot guarantee 100% protection the very least one could is to exercise discretion

plendil: weep for her? sorry, i had no intentions of doing so in the first place. Yes, I know it sounds harsh and callous, but given the circumstances of her unfortunate death, I'm sure I can be forgiven for maintaining this attitude.

May she RIP though. . .

lurkee: Nigerian are so outwardly religious! So you need a list to tell you to pray? What about people who do not believe in prayer, what should they do? The advice is practical and can be applied regardless of religious affiliations.

Anyway, the list is too long. At work, I turn on my PC, as it boots up, I go and get tea. I reply to emails and then make a small list of what needs doing for the day. Catch up with manager if necessary. Shikena.

Theben: Em wait o, is the heading supposed to be ruptured "appendicitis" or "appendix"? Cos to me appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix. undecided
The heading is right......ruptured appendicitis is what's expected. And you're right as appendicits is inflammation of the appendix. Its called ruptured appendicits when an appendicitis ruptures and not a ruptured appendix as the inital insult is the appendicits that ruptured.
Wondering how this changes the topic though. undecided

rhymz: Abeg don't add to the already saturated world of fanaticism, Christians are not any better in that regard. We all know of their own mostrous atrocities to their fellow men all on the basis of difference in religious ideology.
How is telling a non-christian that he will be condemned to hell eternally all because he wont accept Jesus Christ as his lord and saviour a tolerant ideology.
Religion itself is discriminatory and has the tendency to change an otherwise erstwhile rational person with a good heart to an intolerant brute of monstrous proportions.
That's because the person will be condemned to hell eternally....but then you don't see xtians shoving it down other peoples throat. And don't go quoting history please.
A religion is something you die for....while a doctrine is something you kill for! Can you spot the difference?

vedaxcool: Thread like these continue to prove the low intellectual positions occupied by many christians on nl, most of christian friends reason and are able to deduce facts after little thinking, but NL christians (the bulk of them and their atheist allies) are barely distinguishable from the craddle of dullardness! As in, in the minds this dullards, once any individual chants ur name and commit a crime, u automatically are responsible, smh even cliford orji a christian cannibal does not reason in such a way! Sensible people deduce rightly that because some chants Allah does automatically means Allah instructed them as such, I tire to dey teach unah common sense! Abi is it because Jesus said unless a camel pass thru the eye of a needle no rich man can make heaven, I mean camel pushers were u at? Is this why u guys don't just get it? That when a muslim does bad muslims condemn him as such yet when Anders Breviek kills 77 he is mentally disturbed! The problem really is u guys are just silly dishonest
You need to be well educated before you type anything. The idea behind NL is not where you dumb rubbish.....this is sposed to be an intellectual gathering. Its a pity that people like you are allowed here at all.
A man killing 77 people can't be labelled a terrorist.....there must be a political undertone to the killing.
And its painful cos the same yardstick that you used to judge everyone is the same being used here ....you can't keep fighting as Hezbollah, Shiite Muslim, Sunni Muslim, boko Haram. Xtains don't kill in the name of Jesus but a religion where every killer that comes from there does it in the name of Allah and you expect the rest of the world to think that the few 'million' terrorist killing in the name of Allah are just misguided elements that can't read the book right?
Maybe the book itself needs to be revised or edited since the word there are so difficult to understand

bittyend: Who created Alquaeda? Go read about Tim Osman, who later became Osama Bin Laden from CIA classified files. Who were in bed with Salafists/Jihadists in Libya(giving them weapons and training them), and are still in bed with them in Syria? Who gave the power in Nigeria to the Islamic north, and made the Sokoto caliphate the rulers of Nigeria?

Your answers are there..


France is secular country but Muslims aren't allowed to wear burka over there, no?

What's the coronation anthem of the UK? Psalm 89 (verses 13-14), Psalm 21 (verses 1-3, 5) etc. And the National anthem is also biblical. You can feign ignorance but the UK is a Christian country, even the flag shows that.

I don't even need to argue about America, "God bless America" alone shows it's a Christian country. The pseudo-secularism is just part of their globalisation ploy, every sane person knows that. The laws are also based on the Christian doctrine.



Where did I say "Jihadists don't hate Christians?" Jihadists are death squads of the powers that be, they know how to unleash and tame them.
such an insightful and indepth analysis by someone with so much KNOWLEDGE and an obviously little processing power to fully understand them.God bless America you said.....and yet people from all walks of life go there to become Governors and all. And a first generation Kenya is now a President.
do you know that men are still buried up to their waist and women up to their shoulder and stoned to death for adultery? that not being a Muslim is not an excuse as the law covers all alike. That the sign post in Kano so close home tells you that sharia operates here and strips you of your freedom(no drinks and all)? Like I'm not old enough to decide that.
that holding hands is illegal in public in Iraq?
whatever America or Briatin financed is not done in the name of religion my friend....its purely commerce. You can keep throwing bombs and acting like barbarians then turn around and blame everyone around you except yourself. Its time to grow up
Car TalkRe: 2007 Honda Accord Or 2008 Toyota Camry by infolekan(m): 9:26am On Sep 04, 2012
spiaggia: 2008 Camry has too frequent gear-box issues for a vehicle of that age, a friend bought one and the gear spoilt of his way home for auto shop
(Quote) (Report) (Like)


Sincerely believe the above statement is untrue and misleading. Or is it that you wanted to write about the Honda as it's universally known that gear problems are synonymous with Honda cars especially the Accord. You can even find this in every car chat website. Toyota camry is associated with poor shocks and it's a very popular joke all over that the Camry has no "legs"
The statement above is not misleading. I drive a 2007 sport edition camry & I had a transmission problem without any warning and it wasn't due to bad maintenance culture believe me. Had to change the transmission. & Honda's gearbox problem was majorly with the V6 series which had been corrected since 2005. You can go to yahoo cars and see the total number of complaints on the 07 - 09 camry in the FIRST year after sale. You'll really enjoy the camry but then .....weigh your options. Hardly do the gear box OR engine in the 07 Accord model have these problem.
My own opinion. But then you could always google it.

Royal Roy: The two white tail lights does not necessarily make it a hybrid. That's just an european spec tail lights.
All hybrid comes with those two white tail lights & a directional indicator on the side view mirrors. The European spec is a very different shape.

bikokwe: http://www.dailytrust.com.ng/index.php/news/175680-pharmacist-not-responsible-for-cynthias-death The truth is out!!!!
All of you resident in Nigeria and wishing the young man to be jailed, tell me u have never bought drugs from a chemist/pharmacy which requires a prescription without one? Antibiotics and some NSAIDS ( pain-killers) requires Prescription and these are bought on daily basis. you as a patient will be so angry In Nigeria if refused to be sold drugs to.. So common, lets be realistic this intern Pharmacist was just unlucky. If for anything, he shouldn't be held liable as he is just an INTERN undergoing training and mistakes are part of the training process. How about the owner of the pharmacy? why wasn't he apprehended? It was earlier said that because Nonso's parents refused to pay 2 million Naira bribe to the police, they decided to make him pass through this ordeal.
Its painful when people talk about what they don't really understand. The drug in Question is not ciproflox or diazepam(our valium). IT IS Flunitrazepam........a drug that is considered as a date rape drug in local parlance and you're comparing that to aspirin. Nobody wants him jailed but don't paint a saint. He suy dint start well and the fact that he sold the drug still calls for disciplinary action.
Kdular has been spewing tra** & I dint think he's worth replying.
Cocaine has a medical use but selling it to someone without prescription doesn't make it a less offence. Mistake is when he counted the wrong amount of drugs.....selling it is not a mistake. That's an informed decision

Dee60: The issue here is simple - The credibility of the Police is at stake. That may damage their entire case in this saga! Yes. The real lesson is that the security officers should do proper investigations. At any rate, it is ILLEGAL to parade people as guilty unless the court has said so. In that as well, they have erred. The Police does not need to score cheap points but do credible job that will portray them in good light. Right now, they are hardly trusted by the populace and they need to correct that. As this case is going, their credibility is again being put into question.
And what in the whole thing has put the police credibility at stake? Apart from their known past misdemanour though. The only thing that can make any sense to me here is if Nonso claims he was corced or forced to sign the statement. There are situations in Medical practice where you give people cocaine for pain but it will really be unfortunate for someone to give a patient such without a Doctors prescription as these are not commonly prescribed drugs with well known abuse profile.
Its Murder if the police can prove he is colluding with the arrested boys......and manslaugter at its best.
When you drive through a town and your 'brakes fail'and you kill a stranger....you could fight for manslaughter.
But when you drive through a town and you 'brakes fail' and you kill your creditor...claiming manslaughter will be incredulous not when there is a motive.
At least he dint deny not selling the drug......#iamnotasainttoothough#

KDULAR:
I AM INFORMING YOU THAT THERE EVEN IN THE DDA ( DANGEROUS DRUG ACT IN NIGERIA ) THIS PARTICULAR DRUG DOES NOT REQUIRE A MEDICAL DOCTORS PRESCRIPTION BEFORE YOU CAN DISPENSE. THE TRUTH IS WE GENERALISE ALL DRUGS DUE TO WHAT WE HEAR FROM PEOPLE BUT I AM TELLING YOU WITH ALL CONFIDENCE THAT THE GUY DID NOT ERR IN ANYWAY , HOWEVER, BEING AN INTERN, HE' SUPPOSSED TO BE UNDER SOMEONE ELSE' SUPERVISION. AND THAT IS A MINOR ISSUE PROFESSIONALLY AND THE PUNISHMENT IS NOT REALLY ON HIM . BUT IN THIS CASE A CASE WILL BE EASILY WON BY THE PHARMACIST AND THE PHARMACY . JUST WATCH. THE POLICE WILL BE DISGRACED IN THIS . THEY REALLY FEAST ON PEOPLES FEAR AND IGNORANCE.WHICH A LOT OF US ARE PERPETRATING EVEN ON THIS TOPIC. I NEED SOMEONE TO STATE ME AN AUTHORITY THAT'LL PROVE ME WRONG. CHIKENA
Take your time to read about the drugs before explaining what you don't understand. No sedative is ever given as over the counter anywhere in the world and the are even called prescription only drugs which means it must be given by a registered pharmacist.
And the dda you're quoting was taking about cocaine and amphetamine and other controlled substances. Take time to read these things before posting please. A lot of people read stuff on nairaland
