I agree with u that Iran has been able to manage their internal conflict but please tell us why Iraq witnesses daily bombings between sunnis and shites?Or are the Americans(infidel) still in Iraq?Please tell us why right thinking individuals will spend all their productive years on how to kill people in large numbers?
I believe that they should be able to manage their problem without sheding blood.The systematic targetting of shite muslims also goes un abetted in Pakistan.They even killed christians yesterday in Pakistan.I believe the violence knows no bounds and is like when u guys don't see any christians to kill,u resort to killing yourselves.Pls stop the unnecessary blood shed.
PoliticsRe: Boko-Haram Seeks Bullet Proof Jazz From Oyo State!! by luckyDon1: 11:25am On Sep 29, 2013
tmotmo: I agree with you that Boko haram is doomed. However, your last 2 sentences are wrong and misleading.

A. Boko haram Claimed they are killing for Allah, but Boko Haram, Alqaeda, alshabab and the likes constitutes less than 2% of over 2billion muslim population of the world. Now tell me how could their views be the correct representation of the majority if not for you bigotry and stereotyping?

B. Is for Allah alone? Nope, he is working for both Jesus and Allah? Abi? Osama worked for "Allah", Sadam Hussein too, while Adoph Hitler, a staunch catholic worked for Jesus to exterminate millions of life, likewise Joseph Stalin( who was raised in the greek orthodox christianity). Records are there to verify there religious affiliations.

http://www.nobeliefs.com/hitler.htm
http://www.liberalslikechrist.org/Catholic/Hitlersfaith-1.html
http://www.remnantofgod.org/nazircc.htm


It is only if the person claim to be a Muslim, you always associate his religion with him/her, but if the criminal is a christian, you don't need to associate him with his/her religion.

In summary, I am sure enlightened Christians know this and they also know that few mad men like Shekau of BH, Osama of Alqaida and co who constitute less than 2% of the world Muslim population can not be a true representation of this muslim world. Though the world press is christian/jew controlled.
May I remind u that that Adolf Hitler though born a catholic stopped attending church right from Vienna,Austria when he lost his parents.And he NEVER killied in Jesus name.Google his famous quotes and u will see that he was an atheist,a beast possesed by the devil.

I quite understand that u are a moderate muslim and condemn violence but what I have failed to understand about Islam is why they like violence.Take for example Pakistan and Iraq were we see bombing in daily basis between the shites and sunnis?
The same goes to Somali's alshabab?
Afghanistan's taliban?alqeuda in Yemen?Also Egypt is in turmoil and sectarian violence in Lebanon.When I watch this things,I come to the conclusion that Iraq's everyday blood letting is a deliberate effort to murder people in funerals,market places and roadside.

I am aware that we have like five major religions in the world and they are Christianity,Islam,Hindu,Buhdaism and Skihs but I have not seen any of them except Islam fighting the other.
I am not condemning Islam but why has it always been on the news ?

Brother, I will implore you to stop beating your chest and being boastful of ''we Ijaw people will reply in ten fold, hundred fold blah blah '' the resultant effect of what u are wishing doesn't favour your nation, No Region has monopoly of violence ,thereby, U may wish to know that, Nigerian Armed Forces, when ready, can handled any form of internal insurrection ........ Attimes ,I think that is the only reason they are trained,to ensure we are lumped together at all cost !!!


Through the years, Regional Violence against the central has never proved a good way of channeling one's discountenace , if it worked ones, doesn't mean it works always !!!

I quite share your view. And I believe that we can still make a great nation and reclaim our lost glory(Giant of Africa).We can achieve it if visionary and credible leaders emerge.Leaders that will have the political will to effect positive change.

Secondly,there is one major questions that we haven't asked ourselves.The question is,has the average ND governor since 1999 performed well?I don't think so except very few of them.I quite agree that that the central government has not done enough but the greater portion of blame should go to the governors.When I read the news,I hear heartbreaking news of ex-gov Peter Odili embezzling of 100 billion naira and owning a world class hospital in SA that employs 1000 resident doctors and yet the Efcc turns a blind eye.I also hear of James Ibori's loot.So guys if these govs had invested this massive fortune in the development of their respective states,do u think the ND will be like this today?

ijaw citizen: Barcanister, Let us listen to what our "brothers" have in stock for us:

"If Ijaw, Efik, Ibibio, and Ogoni
want to join us, they will be free to do so as equal
partners. If they elect not to, they will be at
liberty to so elect but what they cannot do is
interfere with Igbo's access to the sea. Igbo's
access to the sea is through Igbo land of Igweocha
(Port Harcourt).
If these folks elect to form their
own Republic (into which they have indicated no
provision for Ikwere), Igbo will not try to access
the sea through Warri, Bayelsa, or Cross River/
Akawa Ibom; Igbo will mind its business by going
through its Igweocha to the sea. But if these folks
interfere, they risk extinction from Igbo's
response!"


www.groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/NIgerianWorldForum/conversations/topics/322503


Barcarnister, you are from Okrika so you surely understand the ethnic composition of the city. Which part of the so called Igboland in Port Harcourt is having access to the sea that Igbos are threatening us with EXSTINCTION?
It is now clear that your hatred towards Ndigbo is pathological.But if you must know,the average igbo man doesn't hate the Ijaws or any ND nation and can live with them peacefully but in the event of the distengration of this country and Ijaws votes against co-existing with Ndigbo,then so be it!
I will also like to advise u against banking on your oyel as the US and China which are our highest oil buyers have discovered shale gas in massive quantities in Alaska.There have been drastic reduction in their oil import.So know that by 2016,the US will be energy sufficient and will even be the highest exporter of oil.

Secondly,haven't u heard that oil has been discovered in commercial quantity in Anambra state?Are u also aware that River Niger dregding is underway which will give room for economic expansion.Anyway Ndigbo are very enterprising and an average Igbo man shows little or no intrest in it.And have u really cared to check of what use will oil be in the world be in the next 20 years taking into consideration that the world is going greener by the day.

My points are;
Ndigbo are very friendly and bears no grudges against the Ijaws or any ND nation.

Your hatred towards the the Igbos will do u no good.Listen to the advice of your brothers.

And finally you don't even represent the views of the mainstream Ijaw or any other major ND nation.
Foreign AffairsRe: Agent Orange. American Chemical And Biological Warfare by luckyDon1: 5:06pm On Sep 20, 2013
Horus: We are anti-Injustice. The second world war?. Do you know about the Anglo-American banking cartel?. The Rockefeller and Morgan empires lended money to the German to fund WWII. American oil giant Standard Oil purchased 730,000 acres of land in Germany and built large oil refineries that supplied the Nazis with oil. At the same time, the United States secretly provided Germany with the most modern equipment for military airplane factories. Defeating Nazism was not the immediate goal of American intervention. The goal was to have a long, devastating and lucrative war, leading to greater concentration of power and money in their hands. The Anglo-American banking cartel didn't care about American servicemen during WWII. Even today in 2013, at the highest level, all intelligence agencies (MI-6, CIA, Mossad, KGB) answer to this cartel, not to their national governments.
I totally disagree with you.The US detested the nazis because they were facists.If you can research very well,u will see that in the 1930s and 40s were the time that facism was growing.Totalitarian govts were springing up for eg,Franco of spain,Mussoloni of Italy,Stalin of USSR and Hitler.The policies of this dictators were condemned in by the west,notably US,Britain and France who promoted democracy.
America never associated closely with the nazis and I totally reject the assertion that US supplied the nazis with military supplies because the Germans were the industrial giant of Europe.
Now let me make this points clear to you.
The nazis completely built all their military hardwares like the famous tank called the TIGER KING,they were the first nation to produced aircrafts with jet engine in the name of messerschmit which shocked the allies.Their submarine warfare in the atlantic inflicted heavy damage to the allied shipping.The notable submariners in histrory were all Germans.Most world war 2 aces were Germans fighter pilots.And also they were the first to invent V rockets which made US to hurriedly capture their scientists immediately after the war.Those scientist helped US to develop what we called missiles today.So I wonder how made the assertion that US supplied them with weapons when the nazis produced superior ones though in a smaller quantity when allied bombing of Germany intensified.
So please get this info that Amerians ever supported the nazis from your mind because all the yanks have ever fought for was for freedom,human dignity and happiness.

From my observations here,u guys are all anti Americans.U all have forgetten the heavy price that American servicemen paid for the actualisation of freedom as from the second world war.
I know they are not saints but their sacrifices must always be appreciated.
Foreign AffairsRe: Agent Orange. American Chemical And Biological Warfare by luckyDon1: 4:15pm On Sep 19, 2013
cap28: you seem to be more concerned about US soldiers who launched an unprovoked attack on a considerably weaker and smaller country than the vietnamese who lost an estimated 4 to 5 million lives (majority of whom were civillians) This is the problem with brainwashing it makes you incapable of reasoning in a logical manner.
I can never be brainwashed because I have access to history books/materials and I keep my self updated daily with what happens at the global community.
In as much I believe that the yanks are not saints,I know for sure that they are far more better than the Russians and guarantees world security.
Foreign AffairsRe: Agent Orange. American Chemical And Biological Warfare by luckyDon1: 1:23pm On Sep 19, 2013
I know for sure that the yanks never planned to kill civilians with it.They resorted to it so that they can be able to bomb the evil soviet backed communist to rumbles.And may I remind u guys that agent orange is not a chemical weapon.It is just a HERBICIDE for clearing thick jungles.Many countries have used it in their own countries.
For e.g Canada has used it in the northern Ontario and also the province of New Brunswick.
Foreign AffairsRe: McCain Fires Back At Putin With America's Own Letter To Russians by luckyDon1: 12:02pm On Sep 19, 2013
Well done Senator Mcain.This is a heavy blow to Putin who thinks he can blackmail Americans just to garner sympathy.he is a pure hypocrite.
Foreign AffairsRe: Agent Orange. American Chemical And Biological Warfare by luckyDon1: 11:47am On Sep 19, 2013
Horus: You have to understand that the (vietcongs), north vietnamese soldiers had the right to hide under the forest, after all they were in their own land contrary to the Americans who were the invaders. The US sprayed a third of the surface of Vietnam with agent orange and targeted volontarly and specifically rice plantations with this chemical, because they knew that rice was the first source of food. They knew very well that the first that will starve to death will be the childrens, so it was a deliberate act to kill by mass starvation with no respect at all for any international conventions
The yanks never targeted the civilians deliberately.It was out of desperation to bomb the vietcongs.And most importantly,they sprayed 20 million litters and not 80 million litters.And I would also like to remind u guys that many US servicemen were also affected by this agent orange especially those that applied it.
Foreign AffairsRe: Agent Orange. American Chemical And Biological Warfare by luckyDon1: 7:39am On Sep 19, 2013
NairaMinted: Oh good lawd!! What a zombie! embarassed
I refuse to exchange words with you in public forum because of I am principled man.But if u will agree to research your history books about Vietnam war,you will see that vietcogs used the thick jungle/forest as shields thereby rendering American bombing ineffective.American used it for two basic reasons;
As herbicide to clear the jungles
Secondly,to destroy the crops on farmlands,thereby starving enemy combatants and denying them their source of food and most importantly denying them the support of the local civilians.This tactics led the mass influx of people to Saigon.
Lastly I believe we are all here to learn and share ideas and not to rain abuses on each other.
Foreign AffairsRe: Agent Orange. American Chemical And Biological Warfare by luckyDon1: 12:30am On Sep 19, 2013
I admit the the Yanks used agent orange in Vietnam during the war with severe consequences on the part of the civilians.But unfortunately,most people here don't know their reasons for using it.
They used it because enemy combatants ie vietcongs,north vietnamese soldiers mastered the act of hiding under the massive forests thereby undermining the American airpower.U S carrier based bombers were not able to hit their target accurately.
Agent orange was meant primarily for clearing the tick forests so that bombers can hit targets accurately.It wasn't a deliberate act to kill civilians.

We all saw what andy and his bros did to anambra during their hay days. And we all also know the kind of business ifeanyi is into. You cant rob the masses and turn back to form philanthropy with the money you stole.

I just hope that the story of how he defrauded Chris Maduka aka Coscharis motors the sum of 21billion naira will be revealed for people to see.He owes AMCON 46 billion naira is also in the black book of five Nigerian banks.I'd rather vote for Obiano,Ngige or Andy Uba instead of him.The man is a SCAM!
PoliticsRe: Excitement As Obiano Kicks Off Campaign by luckyDon1: 10:36am On Sep 17, 2013
Sincere 9gerian: All these unnecessary cries about Soludo must stop. Yes, I was all for Soludo initially but now he is no longer a candidate and we must choose from the existing candidate. Soludo must also share in the blame for his failure at the primary election. No matter how good you are as a person or politician, you have to play the right politics. Where else in the world do you join a political party at the 11th hour and expect to crowned the party's candidate? That can only happen if you'r a compromise candidate of the power brokers in the party. Unfortunately, Soludo was not this time around. I will once again urge Soludo to remain in APGA or any other political party of his choice and join hands with the leaders of the party to grow the party. That way, he may earn confidence of the leaders of the party, enough to be a serious contender in the subsequent elections.

As for the upcoming election, we must say NO to Ifeanyi Ubah. I've not seen a more fraudulent campaign all my life. Can you imagine, the guy is promising heaven on earth if elected- modern railways, 24/7 power supply, etc. The ignoramus is promising to deliver even in areas state governors have not control over. To make matter worse:
-Ifeanyi Ubah is a chronic illiterate
- Ifeanyi Ubah is loud and lives an extra-vagant lifestyle. If elected, he'll use Anambra wealth to sustain his expensive life style.
- Ifeanyi Ubah's company is in serious debt crisis. Perhaps he hopes to use the state's resources to settle some or all of his debt.
Ifeanyi Ubah can only be summarized in one word- FRAUD.

Andy Uba is another clueless, fraudulent and chronic illiterate who should not be allowed to smell Awka govt house.

The other PDP candidate (Tony Nwoye), has a bad history and antecedent right from his days as a student union leader. But he is a lesser devil when compared to Andy Ubah and Ifeanyi Ubah.

Chris Ngige is a discredited politician. He and his masters manipulated and STOLE the votes of Anambrarians in 2003. In trying to free himself from his masters, he embarked on massive road construction to impress the people. Well, that worked. But for the 3 years he was in charge, the health sector, education and other sectors were ABANDONED. Governance is much more than building roads. He has been in the senate for about 2 years with NOTHING to show. To make matters worse, Ngige supported the recent Fashola's satanic deportation of Nigerians in their fatherland. Well, my verdict is that Ngige is better than Ifeanyi Ubah and Andy Ubah. He may also be possibly better than Tony Nwoye (possibly because Tony Nwoye has not been tested).

Willie Obiano is the only candidate coming from a background of a very SUCCESSFUL and un-blemished career in the private sector (worked at a multinational oil company and Fidelity Bank). He appears a simple and unassuming personality. Those who have something against him during his stints in the private sector should feel free to let us know. But for now, he is my prefered candidate. He is my FIRST CHOICE.
May I remind you that's your post cut the bull by the horn.U are really a sincere and brilliant Nigerian.If all of us should analyse and sruitnise candidates/politicians like you then,Nigeria will be a great country.
Some ignorant people have been complaining that Obi handpicked Obiano for governor but the truth remains that Gov Obi does not want fraudlent individuals and people of questionable character to ascend to the seat.If such people are given the chance,then all the dividends of democracy that Obi has worked so hard to laid in place will crumble overnight.
I support Obiano because he is a clean,astute and successful banker who will reposition Anambra and consolidate on the gains we have made so far.
Thanks for your brilliant analyses again.

Foreign AffairsRe: Vladimir Putin's Letter To America On The Syria Crisis by luckyDon1: 2:14pm On Sep 13, 2013
I am happy to discover this thread and will like to clarify some issues.

President Vladmir Putin's letter to the Yanks via the NYT was just a desperate attempt and appeal for them to convince Obama against striking Assad's Syria.As a former KGB agent,Putin know quite well that the yanks are very serious people.He knows that his military are no match to the superior American war machine.When he announced that Moscow would be helping Damascus in the event of any American aggression and ordered the deployment of destroyers to the region,I knew he was just boosting.

My points are;
In as much as I am not a fan of Obama because of his pro-gay stance,I support his efforts in striking Assad.Assad's family has ruled for 40years and the Syrian people needs change.He should learn from Muammar Gadafi.The world cannot standby while civilians are gassed to death by a desperate tyrant.

I have also observed that some peeps are blaming the Yanks for their militatry adventures in Iraq and Afganistan.The reasons for Americans invasion of Iraq was to dethrone the tyrant,Saddam Hussein and their reasons for invading Afganistan was the remove the dermonic regime of the Taliban.Go and ask an average Afghan about life under the Taliban rule.

Finally,Putin is a just a desperate hypocrite who wants to garner public sympathy against Obama's policy in Syria.He fully supported the breakway of Georgia's southern provinces,Abkhazia and South Ossetia and invaded Georgia.He has been supplying Assad's forces with conventional weapons to massacre his own people.He is a dictator in his own country and now wants to play mind game.

Nuendo: I AM OVER-JOYED AND SO PROUD TO INFORM THIS WONDERFUL HOUSE THAT I WAS ISSUED MY T.R.V UPON VISIT TO CDHC TODAY. I WAS INSPIRED YESTERDAY BY THOSE WHO WENT TO THE CDHC AND GOT THEIR VISAS. SO I PRAYED ABOUT IT AND BASED ON THE ENCOURAGEMENT FROM THE HOUSE AND FAITH IN THE ALMIGHTY , I WAS VICTORIOUS.

I WOULD LIKE TO USE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO THANK ALL THE MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE, ESPECIALLY THE OGAS...!!!!!! SIGA, FHEMMMY, GBOYEGA-D , BUMDISHH, HUZZIE, JUST WISE, THE GALLANT EARTHGREENERS , 2-CHAINS , OUR CHILL-PILL CONSULTANT CHRIGO , AND MY OWN "NWANNE M NWOKE" AND PHOPHET, ONYE -OMA . I ALSO WANT TO THANK MY BROTHERS HEADING TO CALGARY AS WELL, SMILE13, DICTALPHA AND ONCE AGAIN MR.GBOYEGA D. WE SHALL GIVE A DIFFERENT IMPRESSION OF NIGERIA WHEN WE GET THERE.

TO ALL OTHER CONTRIBUTORS, I HAIL YOU ALL. TO THE SILENT MEMBERS , I ALSO HAIL THEE SILENTLY.

MAY ALL THOSE WHO HAVE EMBARKED ON THIS PROCESS HAVE SUCCESS STORIES AT THE END OF THEIR JOURNEY.THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN DENIED DELAYED , REPACKAGE AND RE-FIRE . YOUR DETERMINATION WOULD SURELY SEE YOU THROUGH.

FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL:


METHOD OF APPLICATION : PAPER ROUTE VIA VFS GLOBAL
APPLICATION DATE : MAY 2
MEDICAL CALL : JULY 19 (NO TUITION OR BOARD REQUESTED)
MEDICAL DONE : JULY 25
DOCS RESUBMITTED : JULY 26
TRV ISSUED : AUGUST 27

DESTINATION : UNI OF CALGARY
SPONSOR : FATHER
CLOSING BALANCE OF ACCNT STATEMENT: 13M
ESTIMATED TUITION FEE FOR 2YRS + LIVING EXPENSES : 8M +


OBSERVATIONS

1. I want to urge all those who are yet to apply to embrace the online route. It has an average processing time of 2-3 months max. You know your fate soon enough

2. Make sure you have your tuition and living expenses for a year at least sorted out on the statement of acc you present.

3. Your statement of purpose matters a lot. Use it as a means to buttress the reasons for your study there in canada particularly, why you would come back after studies and a explain any blank holes in your academic / life .

4. Sort out where you would do your medicals before you even get it. The consultant's practice seems faster because they don't require a pre-booked medicals.

5. This is 2013. This is the new millennium . invest in technology and information. have an internet enabled phone with a very sharp email client system . This would enable you track well and be up-to-date on current developments. This very advice is the most important.

6. Before you apply for admission or the visa, do some personal research about your destination, school, etc. Do some googling about everything possible. Also go through this forum from part 3 at least. With the wealth of experiences here. You can hardly go wrong. Some schools have a higher visa issuing rate than others because of the reputation and sheer difficulty in securing the admissions at first (unfortunately, this isn't speculation, i got this from an indian who applied from india and happens to know a thing or two about the system). If you are using the school as a means of "cutting out " from naija, cover your tracks well, and don't make it so obvious. Reading courses with no connection or relevance to your previous studies or academic history is an indication of desperation. If you however embark on such, please support your self with a passionate and very powerful statement of purpose. Give wole soyinka to write one for you if yours lacks the REQUIRED PUNCH

7. Finally , pray , pray , pray.

Because in the end, na who god want make e go canada go finally go.
we rely solely on his graces.


Disclaimer : The above observations were made by me not just based on my own application but on a careful study and analysis of Parts 1 -4 which I have taken time to read and study Back to Back to Back. However it is no place an instructions manual but just a guide .The suggestions stated above are hereby subject to scrutiny and further additions by the able members of the house as this would only add to the archive of information we already have here.

It is also possible that there are great things God has put in place for you here in Naija(which can also be made manifest thru prayers)...

God'll surely see you thru in the end...
LMAO....Nwanne,I stayed clear of women since I passed out of Nysc and engaged in a serious praying and fasting.Anyway I believe in the latter,meaning that God may have something in store for me here.All the same, to God be the glory.

What could have gone wronghuh
Which course did you study in ur 1st degree and which course are you going for in ur PGhuh
I studied international relations and I am going for international biz management.My father drafted a letter telling VO that he is sending me to Canada to acquire biz,managerial and entreprenual skills to be able to take over our family biz from him as am his first born.My letter of intent was also streamlined towards that.
