lorddannie: please check the list of the 'victims' and relate the incident to the death of samuel garang of sudan. You will convinced that there is a islamic suicider amongst them

maryjames9: The writeup is good but the intention is wrong. This writeup is supposed to be for all women; muslim,xtian. Again,another bigot,extremist posts. Hisses, spits and exit thread

dederocs: PLS POST IT ONLY ON MUSLIM SECTION.WE ARE NOT INTERESTED TO KNOW ABOUT MUSLIM CULTURES HERE.PLEASE DO NOT BRING SUCH TO THE MAIN THREAD AGAIN

General Garicks: The glut in the market is seriously annoying. This is december and instead of cement price going up, it's rather coming down. People are not even cashing in on the lower prices to build their houses as they complain there is no money anywhere. The cheapest trip of stones is about N28,000. White sand is about N17,000 a trip. A tank of water is N4,000. A 2-bedroom bungalow with fencing can consume 3-trips of stones, 8-trips of sand, 6-tanks of water and about 4,500 blocks at a cost of N140 per block. Labour and supervision fees is something else. These things are costly to source. Cement dealers are really crying.

I saw this coming. It is very unhealthy to shut down our cement production plants. I normally see 20-30 Dangote trailers parked at entrance to the town waiting for dealers to pick them up. There was a time you couldn't see even one trailer as dealers scramble for anyone that arrives immediately. By this time last year, we were selling one trailer in less than one week. Now it takes one month to dispose one trailer. Dangote should look for ways to export the product or crash the price drastically so that something positive would happen soonest.

legioni: @kuntash tanks 4 the compliment

blink182: Religion of hypocrisy

eGuerrilla: @JaaizTech,

Would your fears be assuaged by a state police force which is representative of a state's ethnic makeup?

HNosegbe:

Obinoscopy:
: Some people would opine that a non-native police officer can also learn the ethos, norms and values and adapt to his posting environment.

That may be true, but the question is: Over what period of time? I don't know about you, but I can't estimate how long it will take a Bassey Ekpeyong from Akwa Ibom state to adapt if he is posted to Hadejia in Jigawa state or Biu in Borno state. How long will it take him to understand the terrain, the culture, the way of life and the best areas and avenues to patrol in keeping the community safe and miscreants at bay? "Pretty long time" would be my best guess.

Deep Sight: Hello Everyone,


And my contention in this discussion is that it must remain regional to the extent that –

1. Our cultural and linguistic differences remain acute especially in a society where predominant swathes of population remain literate only in their native tongues

Deep Sight: 3. Building on (1) and (2) above, it is inconceivable that we can have the same standards or approaches in terms of crime: this is evidenced by chasms of differences such as the operation of Shariah Law in the North of Nigeria and the activity of what is already virtual State Police in the form of the Hisbah as well as the OPC vigilante groups well known in the West.

4. The groups mentioned in (3) above are unhealthy and unconstitutional developments for the reason that they exist outside the framework of our constitution. Nevertheless, their existence is a pointer to the obvious fact of our key differences in the matter of crime and law, and indeed in all other facets of life.

Lamasta: To me what GEJ represents is true Democracy where you are given freedom to say your mind, but the only injustice he will do to himself and to Nigeria is to ignore the Report of Ribadu led commitee and not sacking Orasanye and its gang in sabotaging there reports and talking undemocratically in the face of the President

atrix4g: Chai see ow d leaders of 2mao of dis country dey reason nd dey fite in top .... na wetin no dey make dis country wotwile b dat pple lik dis now will finish d slavery nd strt to narate stupid xperience well no b our faults ooo

GENERAL BUHARI ORDERS HOARDED GOODS TO BE SOLD AT LOW PRICES.[/size]

Warehouses in the Nigerian capital, Lagos, where soldiers found hoarded supplies of rice, sugar and car tyres, were thrown open on January 13, and good sold at low prices.
Large crowds gathered outside the stores several hours before the sale was due to start. Police with whips controlled the crowds, ensuring that buyers only obtained their assigned rations -- one sack of rice, 50 kilos of sugar, and two car tyres each.
The tyres, which fit Peugeot cars, had been selling at four times the price under the government of President Shehu Shagari, toppled in a military coup on New Year's eve.

The goods on sale at six locations in the Nigerian capital, were either very scarce, or subjected to sharp price increase before Major-General Mohammed Buhari took over in the bloodless coup.

The sale, the latest in a series of actions by military governors in Nigeria's 19 states, reflected the new regime's efforts to fight the profiteering and corruption associated with the previous government.

Meanwhile trading was said to have slumped on major markets in Lagos, as dealers awaited the announcement of new prices by the federal government. Wholesalers said they were not buying new goods for fear having to sell them at a loss.

Prices of locally-manufactured consumer goods soared last year following a prolonged shortage of raw materials caused by a sharp drop in foreign earnings from oil -- the country's main source of foreign exchange earnings. Armed soldiers raided markets soon after the coup, forcing traders to cut prices, but the new government said the raids were unauthorized and had been stopped.

toba: To be honest with u, these shops/stalls arent for the poor, even though there would be mortgage facilities available. But if one would pay N6m in 25 years, it means u must be making at least N500,000 profit per annum cos u have to pay bank interest at about 18% per annum if not more
