"I will seize your breath", this robber is hilarious! The guy don too watch Naija films! But wait o! Those men lazy die! Hw can 1 guy keep watch over them while the others continued their status quo, the husbands liver dey cut.

GUNMEN suspected to be armed
robbers last fortnight stormed
Celenzia Community in
Okokomaiko area of Lagos State and subjected the residents to
untold hardship and torture. They
particularly struck at 2, Charley
Pace Street, broke into the flats
and tied their husbands together
while the women were compelled to bring all they have in their
kitchens. As the women were
busy preparing delicious dishes
for them, the bandits ransacked
their apartments and collected
over N235, 000 including their valuables. Victims said their operation
started at about 7.00pm in the
evening and ended at about
10:30pm. Crime Alert learnt that before their
operation, four members of the
gang sneaked into a two-storey
building at about 6.00pm and
hung around the pent house
which no one occupies for about an hour. One of the tenants in the
building was reported to have
seen them but could not confront
them thinking they were visiting a
co-tenant. It was also discovered
that the robbers used a neighbour that is familiar with the
tenants to penetrate each and
every flat in the building. When Crime Alert visited the
scene, different accounts of the
victims were taken. The first eye
witness, a tenant who pleaded
anonymity said: “I was lying
down when I saw one of the robbers loitering around and I
challenged him, asking him what
he was doing in front of my flat. He replied me aggressively and
brought out a gun, so I
surrendered to him. He told me
that he will not hurt me if I
cooperated with him and that I
should go upstairs into one of my neighbour’s flat because that was
where other tenants were been
kept. One robbers held tenants hostage
“When I got there, I saw the other
tenants in the room. The men had
their hands tied and their lips
were sealed with tape. It was just
one robber that kept us hostage, he was holding a gun while the
rest were searching the flats.
When we were finally released, I
discovered that my flat was
turned upside down and they
carted away N30,000 from my flat.” Another victim who told Crime
Alert that she went out to throw
away waste when one of the
robbers pointed a gun at her and
forced her to go back to her flat
narrated her story. She said: “I was going out to throw away
waste when one of the robbers
pointed a gun at me and ordered
me back to my flat. “He said if I failed to cooperate
that he will ‘seize my breadth’, so
I went inside. He asked me to
bring all that I have with me and I
told him that I had nothing with
me, he searched the house, collected my phone and told me
to go out and knock at the door
of other neighbours of which I
told him that I am a visitor and I
don’t know anybody.” Another victim said that neither
she nor her husband was around
at the time of the robbery, and
that she was returning from the
market when she heard a cry for
help from the building and quickly ran to the leader of the
community security to lay her
compliant. Community security
“I was just returning from the
market when I heard a cry from
the building shouting thief! thief!!
I ran to complain to the leader of
our community security who responded immediately but we
could not catch up with the
robbers who had left before we
got there.” The leader of the community
security who is simply called
“Baba catch”, said that he alerted
other members of the community
security immediately he was
informed about the robbery but could not catch up with the
robbers. “I was told by passers-by that the
robbers crossed through a
wooden bridge that leads to
another community and that a
suspected boy in a military
camouflage was caught some minutes after the robbers crossed
the same bridge but was released
after some interrogation. “I alerted my boys immediately I
was informed by a tenant of the
building that robbers invaded
their homes. We did not catch up
with them and I ordered my boys
to comb the community. Later, we were told that they crossed over
to the other community through a
wooden bridge. When we got the
bridge, we sighted an under aged
man in a military polo and we
stopped and interrogated him to know who he was and he
aggressively responded that he
was a solider but could not
present his identity. “I have to call a retired military
officer that lives in the community
to come and attest to the claims
and when he came, the boy later
confessed not belonging to the
Nigerian army but a member of the boyscout. That was after he
was slapped on the face by the
angry ex-military officer.
However, he was freed after the
interrogation.”

hopefully the price of garri will reduce when this is introduced into the country.

Plant scientists at ETH Zurich have
developed a new Nigerian
cassava preferred by consumers
and farmers that is resistant to the two major virus diseases in Africa
and now billed to test the
cassavas resistant on the African
soil. According to a release,
researchers at ETH Zurich led by a
Professor of Plant Biotechnology,
Wilhelm Gruissem and his senior
scientist, Dr. Hervé
Vanderschuren, “Gene technology has been used to
develop a new cassava variety
that is resistant to the feared
cassava brown streak virus. The
virus infects the edible starchy
roots and turns them brown, which makes the roots
unpalatable for consumers,” they
stated. The researchers used the
Nigerian TME 7 cassava variety,
also known as “Oko-iyawo,” that
is naturally resistant to cassava
mosaic disease, which is caused
by another virus that is severely impacting cassava production all
of Africa. The virus said to have originated
from East Africa, is threatening to
spread to Central and West Africa
thereby becoming threat to
cassava, which is one of the most
important crops in tropical countries of Sub-Saharan Africa. Explaining that it is difficult to
control the whitefly, even if
African farmers could afford to
buy insecticides, Prof. Gruissem
said: “This resistance is not
changed by the new resistance to the brown streak virus. The
brown streak virus is most likely
transmitted by the same silverleaf
whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) that also
spreads cassava mosaic disease.
This tiny insect sucks on plant juices, and in doing so transmits
the viruses into the cassava plant.
The silverleaf whitefly population
has hugely increased in recent
decades.” “This is posing a greater threat
than ever to the growth of
cassava. This is why it is much
more efficient and more
environmentally friendly to
protect cassava against viruses using genetic modification,” he
emphasized. According to Gruissem, in order
to make cassava resistant to the
brown streak virus, “the
researchers modified the genetic
make-up of one variety of
cassava to produce small interfering RNA molecules
(siRNA). The plant produces the siRNA
naturally after virus infection, but
the researchers have now tricked
cassava to produce the siRNA in
all of its parts before the virus can
infect it. As soon as the virus attacks the
plant, the short siRNA stops the
virus by attaching to the genome
of the virus that is also made of
RNA,” the statement read adding,
“This prevents the virus from multiplying and spreading
throughout the plant.” Glasshouse trials, the statement
furthered, have shown that the
new gene producing the siRNA
protects cassava effectively from
the virus. “Even several months after
infection of the transgenic
cassava plants with the brown
streak virus, the scientists did not
find any evidence that the virus
could multiply. The production of the siRNA does not affect cassava
itself. It grows normally and
produces healthy roots.” The researchers targeted a part of
the virus RNA genome that has
been highly conserved during
evolution with very rare changes,
“making it more difficult for the
virus to adapt to the siRNA- mediated immunity.” The ETH Zurich scientists chose
the Nigerian TME 7 from dozens of
potential varieties because it is
popular among consumers and
farmers and has the best
prerequisites for successful cultivation. As the next step, Prof. Gruissem
and Dr. Vanderschuren with
some colleagues in Africa, plan to
test if the improved cassava
variety in the field remains
resistant to both viruses under natural conditions. The German-based Fiat Panis
Foundation, which has supported
cassava research at ETH, has
already reserved funds for field
experiments and ETH Zurich
scientists are also actively engaged in transferring the
technology to interested research
institutes in Africa to develop
virus resistance in local varieties
preferred by consumers in their
countries.

@chiboy1928
Sorry, no offence bt hw u take woo ur babe?

some guyz here really need to get their grammar in order or atleast speak good pidgin english! I can't even read some, proof read your posts! Arhh!

[quote author=control_seven]He is too quite & homely. Does'nt socialize & taunts me for making new friends. He has a massive 3rd leg hence too active on bed. It truly hurts![/quote]Sorry, wat truly hurts? His attitude or his "3rd leg". I'm kinda Confused!

She does'nt call often. I do d calling most times.
She doesn't av tym for us hanging out.
She has 2many niggas on her mind, she's lyk a control centre for administering niggas, she answers calls every minute! Maybe cuz she is TOO BEAUTIFUL!
She shows 'signs' of being interested. Calls me sweet, romantic names bt d main ish is she jus doesnt av OUR tym!
Oh! Yeah, she aint a money lover. Though, I dont mind.

Just confirmed report says, the FG/Military have introduced a modern GA-33-RR-4-I drone that runs solely on liquified cassava extract which is a positive for the advancement of the biofuel industry in Nigeria. It travels 250km in 1h(garri energy tins) and carries ballistic missiles(the technologies ar indigenous, boko haram & MEND technology). UP NIGERIA!!

what is JTF?

2mch: So you ran a red light and you got fined only 10k. The law says 30k in case you have forgotten. So if you killed a whole family breaking the law, what do you think your story would have been? 14yrs in kirikiri awaiting trial. You better thank your stars. You broke the law and endangered lives, yet you are complaining about somebody being and agbero? What are you OP? Sane? You seem like you need a strait jacket. O ri e ti gba paro.

Are you sure you can read? Cos, I dont know where the OP mentioned he 'ran a red light'. Please, read the post again.
