The problem with Nigeria is not just Ya'adua but with the Nigerians themselves.
We love mediocrity and we believe in doing things the wrong way. We embrace the things which continually drag us behind

Policemen are killing too many innocent citizens

we allow stupid leaders to rule us in Africa and they just accept whatever gets thrown at them from abroad

Does the BBC speak on behalf of britain Does CNN speak on behalf of America?? What the heck has what the media chooses to focus on to do with anything??

It's not just BBC. The media focus has a lot to do with many things. If the media does not focus on something, there'll be little information out there about the thing. The british media did not feature that country's poverty until one of their own gets caught plotting a coup to overthrow the government.

I have looked at my crystal ball and SeanT is a white woman in nature.

LetThemSay:
There is nothing wrong with being with a single mom or dad, if u can't handle it move on. It takes a real man or woman to stick with it. TO ALL THE HYPOCRITES THAT SAY THE SINGLE PARENTS LIVED RECKLESS LIVES. If u or all the people you slept with became pregnant with children, what would we call You (father of all nations). It's straight up wrong to make IGNORANT comments. Who made u a judge of ones character how DARE You SAY "step kids are total A, holes to their step parents". IF ONY PEOPLE CAN PASS THEIR POINTS ACROSS INTELLIGENTLY WITHOUT BEING NAIVE AND RUDE. Make intelligent statements next time. Illiteracy sure is a disease. Peace

you dont know what you're talking about here.
It actually takes a real man to realise that he might be letting himself in for a life of troubles if he marries a woman who already has a child

Kobojunkie:
@Poster, you mean a stooge would be worse than what the country has right now?? I don't see how this has to deal with people wanting to believe the western media more than it does African media. We do get news from Nigerian media each day that we still pick and choose what we want to believe or not. Now that I think of it, I think I shouldn't have even bothered replying here. Goodluck with the Western Conspiracy theories. I look forward to the day we open our eyes in Africa to understand that the root of it all continues to exist right there in our mist.

Is a stooge acting on behalf of foreign business men not going to be worse?

The British media is now concentrating more on the alleged condition of the people in that country than the fact that Mark Thatcher and co planned a coup against the Government there. Does that not just say something?

Why did the media not say anything about the bad leadership of that country till the foreign governments seem to be getting implicated?

whatever white people dont want is black

@iceland make you clear your eyes. kkk no fit ever support black man for anything. . . and I mean NEVER

where did America spend all the money? Was it not spent buying their own equipment? so who exactly does it benefit?
Does anyone think America would be happy to produce all those weapons and have nowhere to use them?
open your eyes jare

CNN) -- The trial of British mercenary Simon Mann continued Thursday, a day after Mann implicated former friend Mark Thatcher in the alleged plot to overthrow the president of Equatorial Guinea.


Simon Mann was arrested after a plane carrying him and about 60 mercenaries landed in Zimbabwe.

Mann, a former British army commando, was arrested four years ago in Zimbabwe and extradited to Equatorial Guinea's capital of Malabo earlier this year to face trial for the alleged coup. The trial began Tuesday and a verdict was expected within days.

Thatcher, the son of former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, was arrested along with Mann in 2004. He pleaded guilty in South Africa the following year to unwittingly bankrolling the alleged coup plot; he escaped jail time by paying a fine.

Thatcher said he had given $275,000 toward the charter of a helicopter, which he originally thought was to be used for commercial purposes, but later suspected was to be used by mercenaries.

But Mann said Thatcher knew much more than he claimed, and even helped plan the operation.

"He was not just an investor," Mann testified Wednesday. "I mean, he came on board completely and he became part of the management team."

Excerpts of Mann's testimony were broadcast by Britain's Channel 4 news, which says it has the only camera in the courtroom.

Thatcher paid $350,000 in total, Mann said. The money paid for an Alouette III helicopter and a King Air plane which were to be used in the plot, he said.

Mann said he brought Thatcher to London to meet with Lebanese businessman Eli Calil. Mann said he himself met with Calil three times in London's Chelsea neighborhood and that, during the third meeting, Calil requested his services.

"He asked me if I would assassinate the president. He also talked about the possibility of a guerrilla war in Equatorial Guinea," Mann said in the footage broadcast by Channel 4.

Mann testified that he refused both requests, considering them both unethical, but he did agree to help stage a coup -- an idea which he said foreign governments including Spain and the U.S. supported.

Mann testified that a scout had been sent to the U.S. to gauge the government's reaction to a possible coup.

"The opinion in Washington, the Pentagon, Langley, and the oil companies was basically all the same, which was that the situation, the political situation, in Equatorial Guinea was very unsatisfactory, very dangerous, and that a well conducted change of government would be welcome," he said.

The courtroom did not appear packed, with several of the bright red fabric-covered chairs empty. Bespectacled Mann was dressed in a gray prison outfit, clean-shaven, with his hair combed back.

Channel 4 said Mann testified for four hours. He spent the first two standing up but he was "clearly uncomfortable" and suffering from a hernia, so the judge let him sit for the last two hours, the broadcaster said.

Equatorial Guinea prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty for Mann, the country's U.S. ambassador told CNN Tuesday.

Mann was arrested four years ago after a plane carrying him and about 60 mercenaries landed in Zimbabwe. The government of Equatorial Guinea said the group was on its way to overthrow its president, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, but Mann said at the time that they were going to guard a diamond mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

A Zimbabwe court convicted Mann of trying to buy weapons illegally, and he served four years in jail there before his extradition to Equatorial Guinea to face charges of leading an abortive coup.

Britain's Foreign Office said it was offering consular assistance to Mann and a consular representative had visited him in prison to check on his welfare.

The British consul from nearby Nigeria was attending the start of the trial in a consular capacity, said a Foreign Office spokesman, who declined to be named in line with policy. Britain has no embassy in Equatorial Guinea.

Mann once served in the British army and was later affiliated with the South Africa-based mercenary firm Executive Outcomes. The firm described itself on its now-defunct Web site as a "military advisory service" that had played a "crucial" role in ending two African civil wars.

At the end of his testimony Wednesday, Mann offered an apology.

"I would like to say that I am very, very sorry for what I tried to do in 2003 and 2004. I'm very sorry for what I've done," he said. "I'm also very happy that we failed, that it didn't work, that nothing actually happened. I'm very happy that that is the case."

Mann also said that those involved in the plot who had not been prosecuted should now face justice.

"I've been in prison for four years," he said. "I'm not the same man as I was, and that is what I think -- I think they should all face justice."

Equatorial Guinea -- slightly smaller than the U.S. state of Maryland -- is the third-largest oil producer in Sub-Saharan Africa and a supplier to the U.S. and Europe.


The former Spanish colony gained independence from Spain in 1968. Obiang seized power in a 1979 coup after which President Francisco Macias Nguema was arrested, tried and executed.

Obiang has remained in power despite several reported coup attempts, Britain's Foreign Office says.

If these people had succeeded, they would have put an African stooge in power to milk the Nation and any suggestion of forign involvement would have been said to be the reasoning of conspiracy theorists. We never beleieve ourselves but we are always ready to believe westerners.

If this man did not grant interviews before his trial saying lots of things, the western media would be screaming about him being framed up

1. asked for help finding ways to make my marriage work
2. complained about my marriage, or
3. complained about my husband

If you can do that, I will take back everything I've said here and admit that[b] I am nothing more than a drivelling, racist fool.[/b][/quote]Is that not exactly what you are?
You must have got used to black people dancing to your tune and you expected to experience same here. You are unhappy because you are meeting Nigerians who are not getting bowled over by your being white and you are unable to handle the situation. If that doesn't suit you please move on to a white forum or another African where you might find Africans who are easily bowled over by the appearance of a white person.

This woman want cause problem for here.
if u no like our views make u waka go another place. na by force to like you?

if u hear 1/2 of the things wey I dey hear everyday about black people from white people, you will not be saying what you r saying.
Truth is majority of white people are natural bred racists and they cant take it from the other side. "A killer does not like a sword being swung anywhere around him"

Yes I did.
I am very blessed for it because she's a blessed woman

[quote author=Method-Man link=topic=141489.msg2363564#msg2363564 date=1213266546]This is really sad!

When would people in Africa learn that the streets of Europe and the rest of the world are not paved with God

When would they stop getting fooled and tricked that money doesnt fall from trees?

The traffickers are just scumbags who deserve nothing but the worst calamity in this world to befall them![/quote]what about the girls who offer themselves to be traffiked? are they not scumbags too?

who are the heartless people? I hope u watched the 2nd clip as well. Bruno has now realised that benin girls offer themselves to be used as prostitutes so that they can come back home to build big mansions. Whenever they get caught they talk about some unknown trafikkers who forcefully sold them into prostitution.
No one forces any of them into prostitution.
Benin girls started moving to Denmark, UK and other parts of UE from Italy because their business is not booming in Italy again and the Italian govy is clamping down on them.
