^^^She's baiting you, guys . This thread is meant to ridicule those who criticize GEJ.

See my siggy.

Katsumoto:
You have a lot to learn about men.

Men get turned on by flesh; two woman hooking up together have little to do with that.

Men get turned on seeing a unmentionable
Men get turned on seeing panties
Men get turned on by seeing thighs

Point is, men get turned on by just looking at a woman. It doesn't require much effort to arouse a man.

Testify!

Are you on YIM?

Yeah.

Update:

Further details have emerged of what officers found inside the car, with some reports saying that they noticed blood and several .38 calibre bullets in 'plain view' on the seats.[/b]Mr Ajimotokan's hands were bound with 'zip ties' and he appeared to have several wounds to his head and body - including a punctured left lung - which were consistent with a stabbing.
[b]'He looked unconscious. He was lying there and he looked half dead ,  He wasn’t wearing shoes or socks'

Linda M. Foglia, a spokeswoman for the New York State Department of Correctional Services, told the New York Times that Blake had also used the alias Adrian Burnett, and had been convicted under both names.
She also revealed he had a penchant for BMWs, adding: 'At one point, he stole a 2000 BMW car, valued at $80,000. Then, he possessed a stolen 2001 BMW.'
Another time, she said, he stole 'another BMW worth $79,000'.

GenBuhari:
What about the majority of Nigerians at home ?

Are they ready to fight for good government?

How dare you? They're too weak from lack of proper nutrition. You with all your big mac and pizza and your chicken full of hormones, you're propably 25% bigger than you would be if you were there. Not to talk of the sleep deprivation due to the improper ventilation, what with not being able to leave the window open due to the mosquitoes or turn on the fan cos nepa took light.

Anyway, never mind this guy o, OP. I want to come back. I will not have my children here o. I will see you soon. We'll fight together. I mean that. Maybe not just this instant, but soon. 2012 January at the latest.

The revolution that's taking wave at the moment and is being so effective has a target - a long-reigning despot.  In Tunisia, and in Egypt.  You have Mubarak who's been in power for 30 years!  And just now has deigned to "appoint" a vice predident. 

He will fall,  Unless the U.S., as always, uses their power to hold him up.  The news  coverage right now is being turned around by the Israeli Lobby.  You know, "is it good for the jews?"  God forbid the Egyptians should get a leader who actually puts first his own people's interest and not that of the Americans!

With respect to Nigeria, the sort of revolution you're witnessing will not happen -at least not anytime soon.  Jonathan is not that powerful; he is not a great symbol of power in Nigeria; he has not been in power for any length of time.  If any "revolution" would happen, it could be another military takeover (which I highly doubt) clandestinely sponsored by the Americans or the Brits, using the political chaos and candidate murders, plus the nothern conflicts as an excuse.

Ah!  Fell asleep. 

Here is a guy I like.  Ray Hudson.  He's a futbol announcer.  I mean "Futbol" as in real football, not American armored-rugby.  

Originally from Newcastle, England, Ray Hudson played professionally, for his hometown team too - how satisfying is that?  He later came to USA to play, then parlayed that into coaching.  He's a little off, to be honest, but I love the guy!  Not very popular with Brits due to his overly-emotional delivery, but popular with majority of Americans.  People think he's Scottish, but Newcastle is close to Scotland, and they call the accent a Geordie accent. 

He loves futbol and it shows.  When I moved to the states, there wasn't much futbol on the small screen, other than on the Spanish channels, so mostly just got back into the game during the world cup.  So, discovering Ray Hudson, seeing his obvious love of the game be brought to life in his delivery is a joy, really.  I respect the opinions that don't care for him, but if you've ever been deprived of something and then found it again, you'd appreciate someone who revels in what you love.  He appears to have a thing for Riquelme, as do I.  Not surprising Ray likes him - Riquelme is odd and so is Ray.  Can't deny that. He also favors Messi, before that it was Ronaldinho.

I can't upload my videos of him, but a couple from Youtube will give you an idea.

Sagamite:
This moooron thinks he would get into Oxford.

This is an example of the kind of reetards we see on NL boasting about SAT score and superior education but yet their reasoning is below the feet of a University of Derby average grad.

SEFAGO is the problem.  Stay Focused!    He started it all.  He ruined the thread!  Poisoned the discussion!!  And corrupted the other posters!!! 

Update on the deceased and the search for his killer.  Found nothing about the suspect the Uganda authorities are seeking, but this is a good piece on the dead guy:


Remembering David Kato, a Gay Ugandan and a Marked Man
   
So I asked him the obvious.

Why come back to Uganda?

“We are few people who are out here,” he said. “Me, I’m a professional teacher, I went to nice schools. My role is to fight and liberate.”

Uganda, which Winston Churchill famously called the “pearl of Africa,” doesn’t feel like an especially intolerant place. Most people here seem free to say what they want, even regarding President Yoweri Museveni, who has been in power 25 years straight.

But beneath the mild surface is an intensely strong current of religion. And in March 2009, the American evangelicals came to Uganda to discuss what they called “the gay agenda — that whole hidden and dark agenda,” and to assert that gay men often sodomized teenage boys.

Many Ugandans have told me that gay people, historically, had been tolerated in their villages. Perhaps they were looked at a little differently, but they were not viewed as a threat. But now, that had changed.

The Rev. Kapya Kaoma, a Zambian who attended the antigay meetings, said the Americans had underestimated the homophobia. “They didn’t know that when you speak about destroying the family to Africans, the response is a genocide,” he said. “The moment you speak about the family, you speak about the tribe, you speak about the future. Africans will fight to the death. When you speak like that, you invite the wrath.”

Don Schmierer, one of the evangelicals who visited in 2009, called Mr. Kato’s death “horrible” and said, “Naturally, I don’t want anyone killed, but I don’t feel I had anything to do with that.” He added, “I don’t spread hate.”

Righton:
This is also a satanic argument. terrorists kill for various reasons - ETA in spain on account of ethnicity, Tamil Tigers for same, IRA for religion/ethnicity etc. Don't mix up issues

Back to the topic.  Thanks.

If a society says it doesn't want drug dealing, faggotry, armed robbery etc, doing away with the guilty is not senseless killing or murder;it is justice

Actually, it isn't.  With justice come certain requirements.  The accused has a right to face his accusers; the right to present his own witnesses and defense.  We don't summarily execute a person and call it justice!  Really, this subject is moot, because there is a very real chance that the deceased was a victim of his own companions, and not a rampaging vigilante "gay-hater."

Katsumoto:
I didn't start the US v UK schools debate. It was started by Sefago and Sagamite. No where in my post will you find me stating that one is better than the other. Please go back through the posts if you have the time. I am not attacking Sefago, I am simply stating that he is not in a position to state that the top universities in the UK are tier 2 or tier in the US. I am also stating that you can't state that the best Nigerian students all go US universities. I am not stating that some students are superior to others. That is the argument of some of you who schooled in the US.

Sagamite:
Sefago, get your notepad out and start jotting down lectures from this Japgerian!

I have said it several times that after reading a short collection of someone's views on NL, I can easily spot who is intelligent, who is average and who is a dunce. So when I call people that have not offended me mooorons, don't see it as personal attack. I am just doing a reliable classification exercise.

It did not take me long to put Katsumoto in intelligent from the first few interactions. Hence why I said he should win Politics poster of the year when I saw the options. Kobojunkie my flipping arse.

If you did attack him, and I mean, even with fists and stuff  , no Judge or Jury would convict you.  (Just use his posts as evidence of the provocation.)  And please, do so if you ever do run into him.  The face-buried-in-textbook snot-nosed BRAT is INSUFFERABLE!!!  Multiple pages of an ego stroke as if he is the first to ever attend university.  Love to see him in 5 years after some real world experience.  Use all that book-knowledge to actually make sense of his world and not just regurgitating what some pencil-necked geek professor told him is the meaning of life. 

Okay. Am gonna look for something cheerful news to post.

[quote author=tpia* link=topic=590933.msg7631655#msg7631655 date=1296358087]they identified him by his fingerprints, from the immigrant database.

he wasnt in any criminal one.

i'd also like to know more about his family.

it seems he wasnt married [i guess].[/quote]Pardon?  I never said he was.  Yeah, the story goes that he was identified from the INS/Homeland Security fingerprints database. 

All we know is that he has a brother who is a minister, going by a shortened version of their last name - Ajim, instead of Ajimotokan.

You know he meant to kill him, right?  He left him for dead.  He never imagined he wouldn't have a chance to go dispose of his body somewhere.

Akeem is still in a coma. If he wakes up, I can't imagine. . .  A broken neck, punctured lung, severed ear (which can be reattached) and who knows what else.

His brother and sister-in-law should have seen him by now, but we don't have any news released about that yet.

Checked up on our brother, Akeem A.  He's still on a ventilator - in a coma.  And the evil bastardo that did it has not been apprehended.  

Don't wanna jinx nothing, but this hoodlum could be in bigger trouble than he ever dreamed.  And just like a true punk, he goes crying to his wife, holds a gun to his head but was too chicken-s#*t to pull the trigger.  Typical coward.  No problem trying to snuff out the life of an innocent man, but too gutless to administer punishment to himself when the time comes.

Also, the site I checked has comments, including a really silly comment from a reader about Akeem* removing the license plate, and why would he do that?  Well, am not sure about all that.  But, (my state's) Dept of Transportation and DMV rules and regulations really admonish you about leaving your license plate on a car you sold.  You always remove it, because if the buyer goes and commits a crime, they will trace the registration of the car back to you, and you'd have to go through a lot of crap before getting yourself off the suspects list.

http://gothamist.com/2011/01/29/bmw_victim_in_critical_condition.php

Akeem Ajimotokan, the 33-year-old man who was found beaten, his ear nearly sliced off, and stuffed in the back of his own BMW, is still in critical condition today. According to NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly, he is in a coma and breathing with the aid of a ventilator; his family members flew into NYC yesterday to see Ajimotokan, a lawyer who works at Columbia University.

 

*Shoot.  I just remember, I used to have a crush on a boy named Akeem in my secondary school.  Or maybe it was him that had the crush.  OMG, he told everyone in our form that we were gonna be married.  hahahahaha.  OMG.  Totally innocent.  Great great kid.  Akeem, where the heck are ya?  Hehehehe.  School sucked though.

What's the matter, Tpia?  You're bringing me down, girl.  And I wssn't too far up to begin with. 

Well, you've been on the site longer, so, you'd know.  But, I'm not worried about Stranger. 

Anyway, I think I'll give the Sports section a try one of these days.  Used to post on 2 soccer forums before joining here.  Might like it.

I'm gonna checkup on the Naija lawyer found in a car trunk.  Wanna see if they found the evil bastardo that tried to kill him.

Obviously, there's been a lot of comments here and I've expressed my views that the tape was not the embarrassment it is claimed to be.  My analysis is based solely on watching and listening, and nothing about the politics of GEJ or possible allegations made against him or his wife.  That's, speaking for me. 

So, about criticism of the OP CAP28 having colo mentality - not true, quite the opposite.  If you read his posts, you'd know.  He is dogged about issues though.  Yeah, like a dog with a bone.   

Gonna have to make that my last contribution to this topic.  Whew!

I'm outraged by this, so I have to update it here, of course.

The original thread is here: https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-594719.0.html

It's about a Naija lawyer in NY who was left for dead by a lifelong criminal who wanted to steal his expensive BMW.  The suspect is still at large.  The car crashed and the victim was discovered because the stolen car collided with a taxi.  How fortuitous would it be if the cabbie happened to be another Naija?  He would would have saved his brother's life. 

Car thief led cops on chase with man in boot
A BMW-obsessed thief is on the run in New York after dodging arrest on Long Island as he drove around with the ar's mutilated owner in the trunk.

Barion Blake, 30, was pursued midweek by police but escaped when the officers' cruiser flipped over on a snowy highway, authorities said on Friday.

The ex-con, whose record includes three BMW thefts, resurfaced around six hours later in upper Manhattan on Wednesday morning when he crashed into a cab. He fled on foot before police showed up and is still missing.

His victim, 33-year-old Akeem Ajimotokan, was on a respirator at Harlem Hospital after being found tied up and unconscious with a broken neck and his ear nearly hacked off in the trunk of his M3.

Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said a Nassau cop approached the 2008 BMW at 3am, when it was stopped on the side of Jericho Turnpike.

As the officer approached, "Blake jumps in the car, they take off. They go westbound [toward Queens] on Jericho Turnpike," Commissioner Kelly said.

With the officer in hot pursuit, Mr Blake steered the BMW south on the Cross Island Parkway.

"In the snow, on the roadway, the police car overturns," the Commissioner said.

At 9am, Mr Blake himself became a victim of the weather. He skidded the BMW on some ice and rear-ended a cab near 10th Avenue and Dyckman Street.

The BMW was found to have stolen plates that came back to a Toyota in Corona, Queens.

Mr Ajimotokan, who has no local family, was in a serious condition, but high-school friend Okwui Olewunne said, "He is doing much better."

Stranger, you have a medical background, right?  Just got news that a brother from Guinea, father of 4, living here in SE USA, was diagnosed with stomach cancer and is in hospital getting blood transfusion and his first dose of chemotherapy shortly after.  Stomach cancer, that's one of the worst ones, right?  High fatality, right?  He had lost a lot of weight but they didn't know what he had until a week ago, and had previously been medicating him with very powerful high blood pressure medicine (and I think anti-biotics was added to that) before he was rushed to the hospital a 2nd/3rd time. What do you know? [s]I can open a thread about Africans abroad health issues, if you want.[/s]

It looks really great

Sorta like a lounge where nothing is off-limit.

I can see the potential in this thread becoming prolly the best thing to ever happen to Nairaland

Remember the adage: "from play play, truth inevitably comes out"

So what did we all do to annoy you?

It's old news. 

Feel free to point and laugh at old fart Buzugee who could not traverse NL to locate a thread bearing his name; a thread in the same section where he himself has an active thread; one in which he had previously posted; one whose link was for days prominently displayed in another thread in which he was posting on a daily basis!  Poor Badagry!

buzugee:
wow i came late to the party . yall still partying ?

dang. why yall aint invite me to this here party ?

fstranger1:
Isale.

Why are you mad at us all

Talk to me

A problem shared is a problem 0.1% solved

What do you think? Should I keep the thread going? Dunno. Lukewarm.

buzugee:
i just now saw that thread. that thread got to 10 pages ? i have only just seen it right now apart from when i dropped my first comment. i just thought it was a jest thread that will die out into the abyss so i didnt look at it after that day. will read all 10 pages today and add my input

Youuuuuuuuuu SUCK!!!!!

I want the thread dead.  I already decided.

P.S.: Badagry, Saw your message below.  Will think about it, and pickup this convo someplace else. 
We shant derail this thread - serious subject matter. 

Update on local NY area news site.  Story includes a picture of the victim, Akeem, and one of his brother. Ahmed.:

Family of Man Found in BMW Trunk Fly to N.Y.

MANHATTAN — Family members of the man found stabbed with his ear nearly sliced off in the trunk of his BMW were flying to New York Friday night to visit the victim.

Ajimotokan was still in a coma Friday afternoon at Harlem Hospital, according to his older brother, Ahmed Ajimotokan. Harlem Hospital confirmed that he was a patient, but would not comment on his condition.

"We're all shocked, it's really horrifying," Ahmed said in an phone interview. "He's the last person this should happen to."

[b]The elder Ajimotokan, who is a minister and a physician in Houston, Texas, said his little brother was the baby of the family. He described Akeem as a "brilliant" guy, who was the "life of the party." [/b]Akeem and his alleged attacker, Blake, "came from two different worlds," Ahmed said, emphasizing Akeem's bright future as a graduate from Cardozo Law School who worked at Columbia.

He said his "mind just keeps flashing back" to memories of Akeem when he was younger. The family had moved to the U.S. from Nigeria, and for several years he and Akeem had lived together in New York.

Police called Ahmed Wednesday to tell him what had happened. He said they had identified his little brother through finger prints — all immigrants to the U.S. are required to be fingerprinted. The victim had not had any I.D. on him.

Ahmed and his wife were planning to fly to New York to be with Akeem on Friday night. He said he'd received numerous calls from family and friends from all over the world offering their prayers and support for his brother.

Akeem's colleagues at Columbia also described him as exceptionally friendly.

"He's an excellent person," said his co-worker, Wilbert Torres. "Very friendly."

Another colleague, who did not want to be identified, said Akeem always had a smile on his face and said "hello" to everybody.
"The whole office is devastated. It's scary. We wish him the best of luck," the man said, adding that the office was a very close-knit group and they were praying for Akeem.

Columbia said in an e-mailed statement that they do not comment on ongoing police investigations, but said "we express our deepest concern for Mr. Ajimotokan and hope for his full recovery."

Attack on BMW Seller Shows Hazards of E-Commerce, Police Say

Mr. Ajimotokan had put his car for sale online. But he also, in a sense, was telling the world: Come and get it. Investigators say an ex-convict named Barion A. Blake did just that.

“This is expected to happen more and more, because of the anonymity of the Internet,” said Michael A. L. Balboni, who was a top public safety aide to two governors. “When you think about it, it gives the bad guys the opportunity to case the joint without having to do anything. They can sit home and basically do surveillance on who’s got what to sell. And there is no vetting that you can do, or that is done.” 

It was unclear if Mr. Ajimotokan, 33, had sold a car over the Internet before.

His sister-in-law, Alice Ajim, 40, reached by telephone at her home in Texas, said that Mr. Ajimotokan, a lawyer working in the procurement office of Columbia University, had been born in Nigeria, and that she and her husband, Ayo Ajim, were preparing for a flight to New York.

“My husband saw him 10 days ago,” Ms. Ajim said. “He is a family-loving man, very conscientious, loved everyone, happy-go-lucky, and very friendly.”

On Friday, Mr. Ajimotokan was in critical condition in the intensive care unit at Harlem Hospital, Sylvia White, a spokeswoman, said. Mr. Kelly said that he was on a ventilator and that detectives had yet to speak to him.

Investigators say they believe that Mr. Blake went to Mr. Ajimotokan’s home in New Jersey on Tuesday, after reaching him at the phone number listed with his advertisement on Cars.com, possibly posing as a buyer. “There were, at least, discussions about a sale,” Mr. Kelly said.

At some point, investigators suspect, Mr. Blake assaulted Mr. Ajimotokan and stole the car, though in what order is unclear.

Investigators say they believe that Mr. Blake then went to his apartment on Tenth Avenue in Manhattan and told his wife, “ ‘I did something that could send me back to prison,’ ” said a law enforcement official, who insisted on anonymity to discuss a continuing investigation.

At 9:10 a.m. Wednesday, the BMW crashed into a yellow cab in Inwood, in Upper Manhattan, and the driver, who the police say they believe was Mr. Blake, fled. Mr. Ajimotokan, badly wounded and with one ear nearly severed, was found in the trunk, where he is believed to have been confined through much of the frigid night.

Mr. Blake’s image was later picked out in a photo array as that of the man at the scene of the accident. His name was also on a bill of sale found in the BMW. As of Friday night, he remained at large.

fstranger1:
The odds are not in his favor!

Never say never!

Yeah.  Poor guy.  With the broken neck, could possibly be paralyzed too, right?  Why cut off his ear though, unless the criminal was going to send it to the Naija brother's family for ransome demand or something?  Crazy stuff.

jujube:
When you talk about traiining your child, it could be in terms of education or moral trainng. Well as far as Nigeria is concerned, if a child want to have a future he has to be trained abroad.

This is beyond outrageous.  It is sick.  Check yourself, please.

Princek12:
She read the speech like she knew not what it meant. Put simply, she read the speech piecemeal, making little or no sense to her and the listeners. That is what you call village politics. Advice to men: if you aspire to be politician or public servant, please choose your wives wisely.

Really?  If that's your mentality, good luck finding a woman who'll love you for you, instead of what (she thinks) you can do for her.  

I'm just saying.
