And who are you? A US marine? Common sense teaches that a soldier in the course of his duty may have to face some unsavoury situation in the effort to combat crime. Eg the soldiers sent to borno to combat boko haram, at times there won't be the luxury of a camp to sleep, how do you cope when all your training is just jogging and push ups, some might be taken captive by terrorists, how do they cope without easily divulging the secret of their nation if they have not been trained to withstand hostage situations, soldiers sent to rescue victims of cyclone or earthquakes nko? They have to swim through mud and wreckage, how do they cope? You must be a joker for claiming US marine does not dehumanize, what sort of training do they get then? Just shooting practice, map reading and maybe jogging only abi, lolz. You may decide to educate yourself with some of the revealed training procedure for Us marines

You're African, You wouldn't understand.

The Eastern part of Nigeria is definitely against the war on corruption.

AgreatMan:
I think most people are angry because the girl is covered in mud. The mud is actually very beneficial as it provides a desirable camouflage when rubbed on the skin. Also, if you'll have to spend time in the jungle without a mosquito net, just fetch some mud and rub it all over ur skin and thank me from saving u
I am still looking for what is wrong with this video though. Those guys clearly did not sexually molest the cadet ( I didn't see any touching what so ever). They did not use the stick on her. Verbal abuse was not really there.
sexual molestation-zero.
physical abuse-zero
Verbal abuse-minimal.
So what else do you want? Ask her to do 300 push-ups, no way.

I read some comments by some people that they will rather go and train as a soldier abroad and I just chuckle. If you have seen where they are drilling US army, especially those marine guys. They will drill the civilian outta ur blood. We Africans often feel we have a monopoly of barbarism. Even FBI guys with all their suit and all no well at all, those guys can match the physical skills of the average marine and they have the brains of a "senior advocate of Nigeria".

Go hard or go home. ladies, you can't hide from everything n you certainly can't "sleep" ur way through everything.

"Verbal abuse wasn't really there", but she was called a "Bas*tard" and other unprintable names in the beginning (at which point I stopped watching)?

You're just a beast like most of your country men.

dayowunmi:
The US navy seals go through worse, part of their training involves being tied in a hostage situation for 3 days without food and water, then try to even drown them during training as well just to toughen them. What do you think they do at military training schools? Just push ups and maybe jogging? Lolz. Military is not for the lily livered. If you can't handle all these then it's not impossible an ordinary area boy floors you in a combat isn't it.

Keep your focus on your archaic Army and don't bring the U.S Marines into this crap. We don't dehumanize, that's for sure. Speak on what you know.

LadyExcellency:
Foreign Investors have withdrew their investments from Nigeria.

Our stock market value is on a continuous slide. Dangote is now 53rd as against 26th richest man.

All thanks to President Buhari's change agenda.

How much are you worth?

SO how does everything you put up there affect you? You're inconsequential in the scheme of things. Stop being a hater. Hate causes High Blood Pressure and kills.

Deen77:
Nigerian! You build a mansion with only 3 to 4 children, 2 are in US, 1 in UK. The house is empty, onky you and your wife and a house help, if u die, your wife Will run out of d house, say is too big. If God bless your children, they live with their family, living you alone, some we even miss inside d building.

Mansion in Abuja, Lagos, Dubai and US, with our stolen money, sleeping in only one room.

God dey ooooooo.

Because Nigerians are not intelligent.

viktagorion:
Stop the Pettiness.


Dr Doyin Okupe is a renowned medical doctor before his foray into politics.


He can afford to build this house.

You're an imb*cile. Llet me ask you a quick question:

Were you blind at the allegations that he was also arrested in 2004&2005 on corruption charges? Im assuming you're young so you might have not been aware but for Christ's sake it was written up there and instead of going to research if its true or false you willfully chose to ignore it. You're a huge shame to sanity and the truth.

Viktor1983:
These ohaneze folks are funny .
Have u ever wondered why the British ruled the North and West indirectly , then administered the East directly?
The igbo man does not give a hoot about authority.
To be respected you have to earn respect.
Having a bogus name like "Ohaneze" don't matter.
All my life with have only seen and heard about Ohaneze on TV and the Internet.
Until y'all affect ppls life, you'll keep staying in oblivion

So you think its okay to go to someone else's homeland and proclaim yourself King?

gsalvatore:
I see a smart resourceful man...a negotiator, that stand-up dude you connect when the cocaine price rise...

I think PMB refused because he knows that Tony will outsmart him and he can't bring him to book the only way he know(arrest nd lock up)so he better not run things with him even if Nigerians will gain from the man in any form...afterall they made mention of Investment in bauxite running into billions of green backs which is the kinda investment he has been globetrotting for.

Tony maybe greedy but don't say the guy is not trying to make a living after leaving PM office..he didn't steal or loot while in office which you can't say for his Nigerian counterparts or for the current president..

That homie you connect when the cocaine price rise... That's Tony Blair

You really need to stop doing drugs.

cescky:
mr man shut it...

the amount you spend on match viewing, drinking or what ever frivolities you do why didnt you give to the poor in YOUR OWN family?

remove the the spec from your eye before the log from your brothers.......

what have you done to help the needy around you?......hustle your own and do what is deem right with it

You don't read too good, do you?

xmich:
Everything is not all about profit and dont forget he is one out of many wealthy men in the State.

Agreed, but at this point in its history Nigeria needs less meaningless infrastructures and more meaningful ones. I.e Mass Housing. And the Government alone cannot carry the burden.

To be clear, I'm only speculating about what I wouldve done if I was Mr.Ubah. I do not know his pocket or how society/business is run in that area. However, I can bet my last penny his intention is to turn a profit; he is a businessman. I just think there are other ways to do this that could also serve the needs of society and the masses at this point. More important than playground. Nigeria needs private investors, they don't all have to be from across the Atlantic.

chuka5000:
bad belle go kill u for nothing

You did notice the "Profit" part, didn't you? But it's ok to think it's "Bad Belle". Carry on.

christopher123:
I am from nnewi we dont think like that and we don't go line up for a man to build house for us...its a travesty do you really understand what it means to be from that side

I'm not asking him to house people for free.

caprini1:
Am not sure housing is a problem in Anambra state,it has always been taken care of privately.

Ok, I guess if that's the case. I don't know how possible that is, however, seeing as Nigeria has a huge housing problem. Anyway, the housing scheme doesn't have to be situated in only Anambra State. It could be spread out among different states. I think, in my humble opinion, that would make more sense, than a Games Village.

"Facial recognition capacity", and culprits are going to be apprehended using what database?

Gerarahere:
and ofcourse the most important, our leadership will be by democratical rotation,the tribe that becomes president will wait for thier turn next time as power will be rotated to all tribes,whether big or small will have their turns,while in any case a minoriy tribe(which wont exist anyway) will have a major tribe person as vice president.peace will reign

You don't have a Nation yet but the first thing you think about is TRIBALISM.

Your idea is dead on arrival!

The amount he's spending on a "Games Village" couldve been better spent on building rows and rows of CO-OP buildings that could house upwards of 10,000-20,000 families . But as usual, the African man doesn't know how to turn a profit.

Yes, Mr. Buhari, release the terrorist as suggested by those who destroyed Nigeria through corruption and ineptitude when they were in Govt so Mr.Kanu can carry out his threat of killing millions of innocent non-Igbos in the country he refers to as a zoo.

All you have to do is look at the names of the authors and contributors of the article.

Ezenwammadu:
“It is an obvious fact that the official and spare cars that the Senate President inherited and has been using are old and have been malfunctioning. There are instances like the day Dr. Saraki visited Keffi for the marriage of the daughter of Senator Abdullahi Adamu and another day at the Presidential wing of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport that the spare vehicle broke down.

Id*iot Nigerians paying for the private partying of their rulers.

No matter how you slice, dice or cut it Goodluck Jonathan was a pathetic failure as President.

He's still getting convicted for defrauding the Nation.

Believe this nonsense only if your brain doesn't function well.

This is how Nigeria chooses who serves in the Supreme Court?!

mbhs139:
You know, sometimes, I just wonder what some citizens stand to gain if this man fail? Perhaps they have forgotten that we, the citizens, will be the ones to go down if he fails. I understand that some of them are still suffering from the defeat of their 'hero', but then, we have to move on.

Your country is filled up with people with very dark hearts. And they mainly come from certain parts. Evil is in the blood of certain Nigerians. They don't know theyre doing anything wrong and they often wonder why people have issues with their decisions. Its is just a part of their culture.

Meringe:
You can't tell me that a war against corruption will be going on and only PDP members are harassed and intimidated through media trial.

Well...you know...Maybe, just Maybe, because PDP Members were the ones in power, had access to the Treasury and looted it relentlessly?

SeverusSnape:
The illiterate dullard knows GEJ is UNTOUCHABLE.

If they invite GEJ you will start braying like a Donkey. Anyway, GEJ is not the one in the dock and the EFFC seems to be able to prove its case without him. So, if Mr.Metuh wants to invite GEJ as a witness, and the Judge and the Law permit, then he is free to do so. He should teach the Agency how to do its job or who to interrogate. He's facing prison time and thats what he should be worried about.

Ola17:
It's so nauseating. Isn't it vainglorious for the government to still dazzle it's 'anti corruption' cliché when they have shamelessly failed to come up with enough evidence to win a case in the law courts for almost a year?

In what Court system---in the ENITRE DEMOCRATIC WORLD----have you seen a serious case of this magnitude come to conclusion within 365 days?

grandstar:
When thry say an economy is overheating , what does that mean? Give me 2 countries that adopted the US dollar as their national currency and why? And the simpliest of questions, if I export a product from the UK to france, how much Import duty will the French importer pay? You have 5minutes!

You need to stop drinking so much.

If Nigerians weren't such cowards, why haven't the youth set up a task force to eliminate all the enemies of the State wherever they can be found?

Oh, thats true, then who will give them N500 and a bag of salt during election season?

grandstar:
In a 3rd world economy like ours where there is a lot of business done informally, a black market is not bad. Its just a place where people buy forex, especially superfast without the bureaucracy and time it takes going through the official channel

Even the CFA countries with a currency tied strongly to the Euro and defended stoutly by France has parrallel or black marlets. for easy conversion.

As long as the difference is not more than 3%, then no problem

I asked simple question and your defense was 10th world countries with hopelessly useless Economies that use the CFA?!

My man, this discussion is bigger than you. You need to just sit back and watch the likes of Oduastates teach you what you're pretending to know.

sarutobie:
You've been making phantom claims here..how much quantity of beans will twenty naira get you? Twenty naira sachet milk will provide an individual with the essential amino acids,minerals and fat needed for his/her daily activity.

You don't understand what's going on, so stop pretending like you do. Look at you trying to reduce the argument to Bean and Milk. Why don't you just sit back, read and learn from those that have a better understanding instead of interjecting and learning nothing like a typical Nigerian.
