too late to cry.

This is what you get when we all DON'T speak up when we should.

In an interview with THISDAY, Chief Amu, who is a lawyer said there was no way his brother, with his size, height and military training could have been flung out of the car that was involved in the auto crash.

This guy is a lawyer, how many unlawful killings has he condemned?

How many times has he insisted as lawyer that Police must do proper investigation?

Now that it extended to his brother, he is now talking.

Too late.

them DON HIJACK DATES. I know someone who paid a travel agent 50k and got appointment for the next day.
I think it is time to break this cartel who blocks all dates.

1. Nigeria should learn to plan holidays for about  1yr ahead; makes most things cheaper for you

2. Never pay anyone any money; they will learn it does not pay.

But I guess most travellers are just innocent desperate people.

Hello People,
What does single entry visa mean, does it mean i can only fly once?Unlike we have in the UKwhere u can go and be back more than once in a month, Whats the gist here?
It means you can enter schengen land ONLY once but you can go in/out within schengen land.

sample: Enter france, travel to Spain go back Franceand go Belgium> no problem:

If they continue to reject VISA from all Government functionaries, they will learn to use the money wisely in Nigeria:

Do you know history at all?
Immediately Murtala was assassinated on February 13,1976, it was Obj and Alani Akinrinade that displayed rare bravery that led to Dimka's coup foiled. Obasanjo took over Lagos, coming up with brilliant tactics that got Dimka and Bissalla arrested.

You can call Obasanjo anything but not coward. Obasanjo was a General in the real sense of the word!!![/quote]I dont know what history you read.

Obj was hiding under the bed of Chief Akinmabogunje house in Ikoyi.

It was Danjuma that foiled that coup: PLEASE READ YOUR HISTORY very well.


The coup attempt eventually failed seven hours later, crushed by forces rallied and directed from a temporary base at Bonny camp by Lt. General T. Y. Danjuma, Chief of Army Staff, whose designated assassin (reportedly Lt. Lawrence Garba) had chosen at the last moment to spare him at the Marina Jetty, allegedly in part to avoid collateral casualties.  When Danjuma got to the office and heard the radio broadcast, he held a brief "war council" with Colonels Bali and Babangida, then moved to Bonny camp to coordinate the resistance. Babangida was sent on a motor cycle to Ikeja Cantonment to get armoured vehicles.  Supported by these vehicles he proceeded to Radio Nigeria, where he had a conversation with his close friend Dimka
--

General Olusegun Obasanjo (rtd) has written that he was late in leaving home that day on account of a visit by Brigadier Olu Bajowa to get a name for his new baby.  When it became apparent that there was trouble, Obasanjo executed an escape and evasion maneuver, spent most of the day at the house of a civilian friend in Ikoyi monitoring the situation by telephone,

This is a fellow who insisted that the Beechcraft disaster was a hoax, that he had credible information that the Plane was flown out with Ibori/Odili's loot. Do you know the kind of emotional trauma this might have cost the widow of the pilot, or the relations of the air hostess? Only for them to find the wreckage of the plane a short while ago.

Nigerians have been studying in Ukraine(old USSR) since ages. They have good schools(compare to Nigeria) with good technical knowledge.

But Philipines, common!

The best school there is below the worst school in Nigeria.

TravelPolice Arrest Passport Racketeers At Mma! by landis(op): 10:52am On Oct 22, 2008
Airport Police Command said it has arrested fake travel document racketeers who dupe travelers of huge sums of money.
Parading the suspects at the international wing of the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos, Monday, Commissioner of Police, Mr Hashimu Argungun, told reporters that unsuspecting travelers had been duped of over N1, 927,300 by the scammers.
He said a two-man gang, Adetokunbo Adegbada and Rotimi Onyerongbe were arrested last week after collecting N996,000 and N335,500 respectively from one Mr Isiaka Afolabi, Mr Tolu Tejuosho and Gbenga Tejuosho, having promised to procure travel documents to London and Georgia for them.
The police boss said the suspected fraudsters eventually handed over fake travel documents and fake $1600 notes procured from Oluwole Street in Lagos, to the victims.
Hashimu said the Command, during the period, also smashed another syndicate involving one Bisayo Fisayo and his gang who were caught counterfeiting Afriquiyah Airlines travel tickets.
He said although Fisayo and others were presently at large, preliminary investigations had shown that the airline's staff members were involved in the criminal act, adding that seven fake Lagos-London tickets and two Lagos-Germany tickets via Tripoli, which passengers had successfully travelled with were linked to the group.

"On Sunday, at the Domestic Terminal, Daniel Emecho, Raphael Anorie and Stan Alonge were arrested with fake Arik Air tickets and boarding passes. Stan, a ground operation officer with Arik, procured these documents and handed them over to his accomplices who then facilitated its use
