Do you use Gas for cooking? Please read this and take note. Let this not happen to you. This could be a common mistake in any household.

The gas cooker was on and cooking in progress.
The lady observed some cockroaches near the sink and grabbed a can of insect killer and
sprayed it near the gas stove, which was on.
There was an explosion and in no time the poor
woman was covered in flames, sustaining 65%
burns. Her husband rushed in, tried to put out the flames and his clothes too caught fire. The husband is still in hospital, in the burns ward, still unaware that his wife was declared dead on arrival.

ThaVluit:
In laughing at that, you've done nothing but accept that there are South African mercenaries operating in Nigeria.

So, you've gone and given up the entire argument that's been raging here for 5 days straight.

Thanks, bro.

[size=18]After all, these serves as an evidence that Nigerian military is not a powerful force in Africa. It is just an army which has been granted glory for the work which have been achieved under the belt and arms of the UN. It is just an army which deceived many people about their capability which in actual fact was not genuine. All which they have achieved was in collaboration with other forces.[/size]

EVarn:
they were contacted,physically adjudged and ferried out of SA by the nigerian DHQ while your defense ministry floundered cluelessly and your intelligence service was busy monitoring opposition parliamentarians.

Your type are worse than the Almajiris in the north in that you don't know, and don't want to know. The only thing you know is to go on social media to advertise your ignorance in the form of moronic comments. The erudite Prof has hit the nail on the head by stating that we do not have the minimum systems and processes to tackle corruption as is being done in other countries.

The APC have up till now decided not accept that the freedom of information law applies to them or even domesticate it if they insist that it is on the concurrent list, despite the rulings of various high courts to the contrary. This has made it nearly impossible for the public to access information on the looting going on at the state level, just as we are accessing information as to what is happening at the federal level. Is it not an irony that the APC are the ones singing about 'change'? I guess that one of the first thing they will do if they get into power is to water down the FOI law, or scrap it altogether so as to protect themselves from public scrutiny.

There is presently before the national assembly, the asset forfeiture bill that has been gathering dust since 2010, which will go a long way in ensuring that people do not benefit from loot of any kind. The law bill stipulates that any asset traced to you would be confiscated by the government if you are unable to prove how you earned it. It seeks to transfer the burden of proof from the government to the accused making it cheaper and faster for the prosecution of corruption cases. In addition to the passage of this bill, there is the need to amend the constitution, removing immunity from prosecution on corruption cases for the president and all the governors, a special court to handle corruption cases, a new evidence act to ensure that computer print out of bank account statements of can be tendered in court to also ease the difficulties in prosecuting corruption cases etc.

The combination of the FOI law and the asset forfeiture law will definitely be a game changer in the fight against corruption. Infact, it will make political office unattractive because a corrupt politician will not get away with corruption. These are the basic minimum systems and processes existing in the US, UK, even South Africa.

So, when Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is saying that Nigeria presently does not have these systems/processes to effectively fight corruption, she is absolutely correct and people who are clueless about this issue should just shut up. Beyond going on the social media to post "Sai Buhari", you guys should ask the relevant questions as to how Buhari wants to prosecute the so-called anti-corruption war if voted into power, operating within the legal confines of the extant laws of the land.

It is pertinent to note that a lot of the Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SANs), who presently are part of the so-called progressives like Wole Olanipekun and co, have become specialists in defending politicians accused of corruption in court. They have perfected the art, in collusion with some corrupt judges, in getting adjournments after adjournments of corruption cases to ensure that EFCC gets tired of prosecuting cases over so many years without even the court looking into the main substance of the cases. In some of these cases, the defense counsel will be contesting jurisdiction for as many years as possible. How do you expect the government to continue to pay its prosecution lawyers for close to ten years just to get a conviction that may never happen. Out of frustration, EFCC would then end up settling for the plea bargain option which is basically allows the thief to go home with more than 80% of his loot.

In summary, nigeria must restructure if she must move forward because the corrupt national assembly becomes bipartisan when it comes to protecting itself from anti-corruption agencies. They have become so powerful that the only way in ensuring that the asset forfeiture bill is immediately passed into law is a mass action from the nigerian people, demanding that these systems and processes are immediately put in place. This is beyond all the noise making by the self appointed APC "change agents" who we all know are as corrupt, it not more than the PDP.

[size=20pt]GEJ's Political Body Count[/size]

Olusegun Obasanjo: The apex ruler of the PDP and prime godfather in the country. Not only has GEJ carefully frustrated 100% of OBJ's major boy-boys and sympathizers out of the PDP (G7 Governors), He has also neutralized the political relevance of his behind the scenes puppets (Chris and Andy Uba, Sule Lamido for example). He as also began reinvigorating the enemies OBJ has witch hunted and thought he has politically killed in the past (Fayose, Bode George, Alams) to the point that they have a stronger political foothold in the PDP and Nigeria as a hold than him. The remaining puppets he once had have switched to new masters (FFK, Dangote for example). The end result is OBJ has lost 100% grip on the PDP. To make it even worst, his own daughter has even come out to shame him publically. Obasanjo has been left with no other option that to 'denounce' the party that he went from being the sole proprietor of to being relegated to a political observer.

Murtala Nyako: Nyako who was a strong ally of Obasanjo and staple in Northern politics was powerful enough at one point (under OBJ) to make his wife a member of the Nigerian supreme court despite her limited education. After coming out publicly to rally up armed violence against GEJ, Murtala Nyako is not only no longer a member of government in Adamawa state but lives as a fugitive in his own realm. He has been frustrated out of the PDP where he held leadership power and his lack of assets to contribute to the APC have made him for forgettable member at most.

Rabui Kwankwaso: Once seen as a potential next president, and leader of the North to come, Kwankwaso enjoys a quiet inconsequential place in Nigerian politics. Not only has he also been frustrated out of the PDP, but the enemies of his political machine in Kano have been made prime lieutenants in GEJ's silent assault. Kwankwaso is now marginal in APC since being frustrated out of PDP, and his gamble with APC has proved fruitless. His frustration is shown in how little he campaigns for APC and Buhari today as well as his boycott of APC activities. As a politically homeless politician, Kwankwaso now has to contend with Muhammed Abacha and Sherakau for a now shaky hold on Kano.

Nuhu Ribadu: Once a staunch Anti-GEJ critic, Ribadu has been left with no option than to rejoin the PDP. Ironically, Ribadu went on the assault of GEJ after GEJ brought him back from the exile imposed on him from the country by Umaru Yar'Adua. Since coming back Ribadu went from being seen as a hope for the ACN nationally, to being left as a political waste product until running back to PDP for relevance and shelter. Once he, within PDP, tried to run for governor of his Adamawa state, he was quickly neutralized by the powers that be making him nobody in APC, ACN, PDP and Nigeria as a whole.

Fani Kayode: Once the loudest critic of GEJ is today the loudest supporter. GEJ's silence but stern assualt on the political wish wash using his heinously corrupt background to neutralize his 'anti corruption crusader' 'progressive' APC gimmick has brought him to his senses. Today Kayode is back in the PDP and using his natural intelligence and oratorical mastery to focus in aiding and even leading the GEJ campaign as opposed to using it for the evil purposes of being Obasanjo's boy boy and ranting aimlessly at any given chance.

Sule Lamido: Was propped up as the president in waiting, Jigawa's Sule Lamido is today as politically relevant as my grandmother. Sule's original plan was through the backing of Obasanjo run under a Lamido, Amaechi ticket to overthrow GEJ at the party primaries. Lamido realized GEJ wasn't going anywhere and his backer Obasanjo has lost control of PDP when he suddenly decided to switch over to the APC under the 'G7' platform. This 'nPDP' hopeful was quickly reminded that his son is one of the most corrupt people to step foot in Jigawa state and suddenly out of fear of justice Lamido stayed in PDP while his brothers ran. He quickly negotiated with GEJ to enjoy a quiet role in the PDP while dropping his ambitions for the presidency, loyalty to Obasanjo and most importantly alliance with the 'nPDP'. Today Sule is a quiet and reluctant supporter of his president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

Nasir El Rufai: After being freed from exile by Yar'adua like Ribadu, El Rufai went on the assault. El Rufai was able to twist his hatred from Tinubu, and anti-Buhari stance into a hypocritical love for the both of them and the party their alliance created all in the name of having a political home. El Rufai became the chief and primary online opposition to GEJ as his endless tirades helped him reclaim relevance and sell copies of his book. His hatred for GEJ was so steep and 1 day after the death of his own son, El Rufai was back on twitter attacking Jonathan for one fictitious scandal after another. Today El Rufai is not only dead silent, but shows no support for the Buhari campaign that seems to only be propped up by Tinubu and Buhari themselves. Why? because El Rufai had convinced himself that Kwankwaso was the future of the party. Attaching himself to a sunken ship allowed him to drown into silence and irrelevance and his 'runs for governor' of the Kaduna state that he has little to no political relevance in.

Atiku: The man who saw himself as the natural next president was not only crushed by Obasanjo, but pounded into dust by GEJ. At first he attempted to take GEJ's seat by way of primaries, but GEJ and Obansanjo came together to outflank him. GEJ then proceeded to individually destroy all of his minion in the PDP such as Professor Soludo until they had no valid stance in the party.

Unheard kills: Unknown to many, GEJ allowed many politicians to lose their PDP elections if they were allied to Yar Adua, Obasanjo or Atiku. Many of the loses PDP took in the past 6 years are solely for the purpose of having the wrong loyalty. When Ikedi Ohakim of Imo State ran against Rochas, GEJ froze all of PDP's budget for supporting Ohakim due to Ohakim's support of Yar Adua and loyalty to Atiku. The same happened nation wide until all senators, governors, and even LG chairmen that were loyal to GEJ's enemies were pushed out of the parties shareholding positions. This is why Tukur election was so controversial because the 'nPDP' saw what GEJ was doing (taking PDP away from their Godfathers Atiku and OBJ).

Of the entire NPDP, the only one still standing is Chibuike Amaechi who has not only been marginalized in River's state but is now fighting for dear like.

Of the entire APC, the only ones campaigning for Buhari is Tinubu and Amaechi, with Amaechi being the only office holder going against the president.

Clueless nko?

Imagine this liar, you are one dishonest fellow who loves reeling out half truth as fact.

1) GEJ added some power plant to come up with that increase in installed capacity. a capacity of 15,000 without the transmission backbone in place is nothing, it seems you are ignorant of the incumbent approach in addressing that.

2)A robust banking industry where investors fund were totally eroded and it took a 500 billion govt bail out to save them . Shioor

Investors funds were eroded, hello where are you getting your gist from? Oh! Sanusi's looting of Access bank right? you want to blame Soludo for that?
What is the difference between Sanusi's Bail out funds and Prof Soludo's EDW (extended discount window) that Sanusi had to murder the investors confidence in those banks?

3) The same Military you have hypocritically called names and rubbished here consistently. The same Military the current admin is seriousy arming to meet current challenges due to the decay of the past. Asking for the intervention of neighbors to reduce cross border banditry can only be frowned upon by unpatriotic hypocrites .

4) Your Buhari hatchet job here is dead on arrival. Give it up.

Buhari goes back home, practically speaking since he was Military governor of North Eastern state in the 70s as a young man in his early 30s.

Does anyone think that stint as governor of the hotbed of Boko Haram insurgency made him a sympathiser of their sharia cause

so awarding contracts and procurement are not part of the processes i mentioned.

Buhari or not, those refineries will still be in place. Stop the hypocrisy of giving kudos to Buhari for feats initiated by his previous admins while foolishly blaming Jona for similar successes.

your hypocrisy is nauseating.

PapiWata:
If, for the sake of argument the video clip posted here actually originated in Iraq or Afghanistan, and is in fact footage of a US drone operation or even a routine manned air strike, there is no need to get all agitated and flustered over the possibility that some resourceful person edited the footage to display the Nigerian flag on-screen, and thus give the impression that the action took place in Nigeria.

The old saying goes that the first casualty of war is the truth. Nigeria is at war, and so the use of psychological warfare will appeal to BOTH sides of the conflict, as just another tool in the box, designed to wear down the morale of the enemy, in this case discouraging the Boko terror gang from taking to the roads in convoys as was common in the past, thus potentially saving both civilian and military lives.

Those scoffing at the notion that armed drones are already laying waste selected enemy targets in Nigeria's war on terror, remember that an ARMED drone did crash near the theater of war in Nigeria's north-east just last week, meaning that even if the Nigerian Air Force has thus far deployed only manned aircraft, nothing stops the federal government from SECRETLY sub-contracting the deployment of armed drones to a competent foreign partner like the US, Israel, or even China.

Free your mind, folks, and your asz will follow.
