Take a look at the first picture of the Kenyan Train, does that look like a TRAIN??


Stupendous Ignoramus

Those pics are not even in Kenya.

So many liars in this thread.

NigeriaLite:
Kenyan trains

Why lie?

Which Kenyan city has a tram system? That is an American tram.

That second train is in the UK.

Why can't you people argue facts? Why do you have to make up lies?

Anyone calling for these women to be coerced into giving birth to such children has probably completely missed the causes of the Boko Haram insurgency.

Only in those parts.

A cloth dealer, Cyprian Edundu, 38, has been arrested by the police for allegedly raping a nine -year-old girl.
That man was arrested for rape.

That man was arrested for rape.


That man was arrested for rape.


Will Mr Ahmad Sani Yerima be arrested for what he has done to several young girls?

I had to make sure that you get the point because clearly you are not particularly intelligent.

That is the point I have been making.

This man's acts are condemned. No one is calling for his actions to be held as legal.

The idiot in the Facebook message is advocating child rape, you appear to be defending him.

You have serious issues with reading comprehension.

KingTom:
Why not give the babies away? Abortion is not always the answer to unwanted pregnancy you know.

Northern Nigeria is already plagued by masses of unwanted, uncared for children - you want to add to that number?

AnanseK:
You are still not conversant with epidemiology . You are just a bitter bigot overwhelmed by unwarranted hatred. You can't even use google. See your life

If I have said something false then show me what it is wrong and show me the facts.

Malnutrition and polio are not ailments commiserate with a progressive society. There is no excuse for either in 2015.

Lagos is the commercial capital of West Africa and has been for over 100 years.

What sense does it make to compare it to a state that wasn't even on the map 30 years ago?

They've both done good but Lagos has been able to rely on the private sector owing to the fact that it is the commercial capital for the sub-region if not the entire continent. That has nothing to do with Fashola/Tinubu.

This is a silly comparison.

If you want to compare Lagos to another state then that state should Kano, both are old commercial hubs with large populations.


P.S.
I've just seen that the OP claims that the murder rate in AKS is the highest in Nigeria. Clearly this person (the OP) is a fool, there's a region of this country that faces suicide bombings and school massacres. There's another region that is plagued by herdsmen who kill daily.

AnanseK:
You don't seem to know much about epidemiology. So those 4 issues are unique to north?

Criminality may be a problem everywhere but you guys are leading the world.

They are unique in the rate of occurance in progressive societies.

Only three nations on earth still battle with polio - Afghanistan, Pakistan and (northern) Nigeria.

Illiteracy at the rates seen in northern Nigeria are only found in other backwards societies.

Fistula at the rates found in northern Nigeria are only found in other backwards societies that refuse to deal with the issue of child marriage/rape.

Malnutrition is an inexcusable scourge in 2015, a true sign of failure and common in parts of northern Nigeria.

AnanseK:
A primitive base with no real societal value development gives you these ends;

Death sentences in Indonesia for drug offenses

Large population of the community in Chinese jails

South African armed robber gangs

In NDLEA net for drug courier crimes

sex slaves Prostitutes in Italy and Europe ( no morality)

Baby factories at home

Kidnapping as a means of livelihood

419

Fake drugs manufacture , killing to make money

And freelance in any crime at home or abroad.

I don't envy you

Those issues of criminality are a problem in every society.

What is unique is fistula, polio, illiteracy and malnutrition. Those are inexcusable in 2015. Only the most backwards of societies suffer such ailments.

AnanseK:
Your imaginary north. You have been brain washed.
When did the southern civilization begin?

The word " statutory " you keep repeating does not exist in your dialect.

It's not where you begin that matters, it is where you end up.

If you are still battling polio in 2015.

Fistula in 2015.

Mass illiteracy in 2015.

Malnutrition in 2015.

Then you are a failed entity.

AnanseK:
Hypocrite , do you rape those pure water seller girls with consent?

Rape is a criminal offence in the south.

Statutory rape is not recognised in the north, a grown man can defile a girl of 10 and then marry her as if there were no crime.

That is the difference.

Your reasoning skills are appalling.

iterator24:
30 states in Nigeria should have at least 1 auto manufacturing plant with 20, 000 capacity per year.... since we're expecting 21 plants, they should be evenly distributed

This is not oil money that can be divided and given to those that do not deserve it.

State governments should do what they can to make their states more attractive for business.

It's called 'cultural appropriation'.

Better known as theft by way of lies.

AnanseK:
Southern hypocrisy, Their fathers and grandfathers have seventeen wives each , but when you talk of polygamy they point to the north.

It is the same with child abuse.

This is about statutory rape, not polygamy - two very different issues.

Only the north has a problem with the Child Rights Act. Fistula rates are far higher in the north as a result as are rates of maternal/infant mortality.

The fact is that girls in northern Nigeria are treated like chattel, sold into marriage by their irresponsible parents.


P.S.
You gave list of nations that have an age of consent below the age of 18, that is very different from the marriageable age which is 18 in most nations.

That's a good looking script.

AnanseK:
Whether you molest the girls with our marriage or you molest them in a so called marriage , it is still child molestation and must be condemned. It happens in all societies in Nigeria and elsewhere. Many girls in the famous baby factories of the SE are underage.

Why do you keep jumping on practices that are widely condemned to use by comparison?

We hear about these baby factories because the police investigate them as the people report them in disgust.

These are people readily identified as criminals, no one is defending their practices.

Comparing a judicially sanctioned act with a culturally accepted yet barbaric practice is nonsensical.

Child marriage is sanctioned by the religious authorities in the north and is never condemned by the big political actors in that region.

You keep repeating nonsense as if you have a point to make, the truth is you do not.

free2ryhme:
The pervert just aired his shallow mindedness. Pls ask him if his younger sister was in such position would he oblige

He probably 'knows' his younger sister very well.

deflover:
how many of these states persecute cases like this.....families allow it as long as the person promises to take care of their wards.....well you can say they have these sickness but i can tell you while you see these things as being bad the normal northerner sees it as a will of allah...

so as long as its the will of allah it is acceptable by the northerner....so whats your own with their problem......she cant do poo and she knows it....even her husband wont want to be seen as un-islamic....so he will trend carefully.....she can scream all she likes but in the end her voice will be put where she belongs....in the bed to nurse the pipe of her husband

Child marriage is nowhere near as common in the south and you will not find girls of 10 being 'married'. No right-minded parent would allow their child to marry before completing their education.

There is no comparison to be made of what happens in the south with what happens in the north in this regard.

Religion is always a barrier to enlightenment.

AnanseK:
Good, Aisha wants to fight the molestation of the female child. In the north they go on and marry underage girls while in the south they only molest these underage girls. We have to speak to both practices.

Molestation of girls is not legal and no one speaks in defense of such a disgusting practice. Is anyone arguing that child molestation is 'cultural'? It's an unfortunate activity that happens in every nation on the planet, most people are disgusted by it. Can the same be said for child marriage in the north?

At least when it comes to child molestation those people are punished when discovered.

What happens to Mr. Ahmad Sani Yerima when he marries a child and then discards her a year later?

deflover:
it is outlawed doesnt mean its not practiced......they refuse to sign it becos they have a clause in the constitution which gives them technicalities to over rule most laws....

the sharia is enshrined in the constitution....so they have a law that is at logger head with your secular laws

That it is outlawed is a sign that it is recognized as being detestable. No one in the south is calling for the law to be repealed.

Is it any surprise that the same states that refuse to outlaw child marriage also have the highest poverty and illiteracy rates. They are also one of the few places on earth that still battles polio. I hope that they remain proud of their retrograde customs.

deflover:
hehehe and the messiah nigeria seeks is here......make una wait na till may 29 wen all your dreams will come tru.....we await the change he brings....child marriage is in every culture....but the real deal is this man will not be able to do much.....his so called wife is now trying hard to use the office of the 1st lady the same APC said doesnt exist.....when the shit hits the fan, people will find out that one can change the head but the system of govt will remain the same

Child marriage WAS in every culture.

Most societies have progressed beyond such a destructive practice.

It is outlawed in every southern state but 12 northern states refuse to sign the Child Rights Act into law. Why is that?

mcquin:
1stly he shook hands with a lady; his wife has come out to condemn Child-marriages; is that not sensitizing these people? Una go hate person no see the good en de do.

Shaking hands is nothing.

I'm sure when he went to the UK he was shaking hands with whoever was put in front of him, including women.

I'm glad that his wife has come and spoken out against one of a number of barbaric practices that some people elect to cling to but it's interesting that she was speaking to an international audience. Why did she not give that same speech in northern Nigeria where it really needs to be heard?

mcquin:
Thank God Buhari is here, at least to teach these extreme Northerners to be civil.

Buhari should not play to the gallery as posterity will Judge him as it as already judging Jona.

Northerners need more enlightenment from their own brother cos if na Southerner tell them of their wrong, dem go quickly label am infidel. Even Saudi Arabians de as extreme as naija muslims.

How can one fvck a girl without breast. It's as good as screwing a guy.

Buhari has never come out against these barbaric practices before, why would you think he would do so now? Before the recent elections the only issues that he made noise about were Sharia law and that the Federal government should not use force to deal with Boko Haram.

It's a pity that some people cannot see how destructive some of these 'cultural' habits are.

Jonathan Edwards:

'Having left his sport as a dyed-in-the-wool evangelical, Edwards is now, to all intents and purposes, an atheist.'

'"Once you start asking yourself questions like, 'How do I really know there is a God?' you are already on the path to unbelief," Edwards says. "During my documentary on St Paul, some experts raised the possibility that his spectacular conversion on the road to Damascus might have been caused by an epileptic fit. It made me realise that I had taken things for granted that were taught to me as a child without subjecting them to any kind of analysis. When you think about it rationally, it does seem incredibly improbable that there is a God."'

The upheaval of recent months has not left Edwards emotionally scarred, at least not visibly. "I am not unhappy about the fact that there might not be a God," he says. "I don't feel that my life has a big, gaping hole in it. In some ways I feel more human than I ever have. There is more reality in my existence than when I was full-on as a believer. [1]

"If there is no God, does that mean that life has no purpose? Does it mean that personal existence ends at death? They are thoughts that do my head in. One thing that I can say, however, is that even if I am unable to discover some fundamental purpose to life, this will not give me a reason to return to Christianity. Just because something is unpalatable does not mean that it is not true."

This topic is about akpabios 8 years uncompleted buildin, not other governors. The fact that I made a reference regarding other governors doesn't mean the topic have changed or you are allowed to change the topic. I'm not falling for your bogus deception.


You should be explaining to us why after 8 years and the largest budget in Nigeria, this man can not complete 1 single hospital.

You made a (false) claim, one of many.

I've simply asked you to name the governors that you said were building these hospitals. Instead of you doing so you prefer to throw petty insults.

yummylookintoks:
That I m aware of and I hate them for that

But these news outlets don't just pick any news anyhow and paste on their website.

They pick the most shocking.

This is shocking because it's so clearly false.

Why have they picked up this rehashed story a year later? An internet search shows that this story was reported last year.

When have Nigerian news outlets ever been shy of printing gory and unpleasant pictures? Why are there no images of the reported severed heads? Of the human meat? Why was the patron not named? Why was the owner of the restaurant not named? Why was the police office left anonymous?

When did Nigerian news outlets suddenly become so secretive?

aresa:
Nor is the name of the town in

Of what sense is your irrelevant question the topic of discussion is this 8 years old still uncompleted building and please quit talking about standard when talking about this uncompleted building that's not even a hospital yet unless you are trying to tell us you've been to this non existing hospital and recieved high standard care their.

Very infantile talk.

You said that there are governors building good hospitals outside of AKS in Nigeria (I already mentioned Summit Hills, you can't have that one). So where are they?

Which governors? Why can you not back up your claim with names and facts?

Writeditor:
I read the initial story elsewhere. I didn't know The Punch also reported it. If they did you have a point to the extent you believe the police and hold the opinion that the story is not true.

The Nigerian press are generally very uncouth to the point where they will display pictures of dead bodies on the front page and will list the names of minors when reporting.

This story has no pictures of the severed heads, no pictures of the meat, the restaurant is unnamed, proprietor is unnamed, anonymous patron, anonymous police officer and all this took place in an unspecified town in Anambra.

Why would PUNCH behave so coyly all of a sudden? If they had proof of this tale it would be all throughout their 'newspaper'.

aresa:
The building is nothing but 8 years old uncompleted building so what track record are you talking about?

Track record for incompetence and spending 8 years on a still uncompleted building?

Where are these other governors that you spoke of?

Who is building hospitals to a high standard?

Where are these hospitals?

yummylookintoks:
Nigeria police has suddenly become your reliable source of information.

Do yourself a favour by searching online for this news. It's all over d news from all reliable sources of information; it's all over the news in UK and US

It's all over the UK/US news with no credible sources.

No names, no dates, no location. How is that a reliable source of information?

A basic journalistic requirement is that the reporter should explain, who? where? what? and why? This story has been recycled without any of these. It's clearly a fake story, only a fool would fail to see this.

Also, if you are not aware as of yet - Western media loves nothing more than to portray Nigeria as a terrible place.

aresa:
To start with, how do you determine quality of care, manpower and equipments in a still uncompleted hospital and non functional empty building?

You people no go kill pesin with lafta I swear.

A plan has been laid out for anyone who has a genuine interest in what is being done - Akpabio has established a track record of doing what he has said would be done.

Why don't you name those governors that you were talking about? Which states are they governors of?

Writeditor:
How does publishing a police response story make a newspaper irresponsible?

Did you read what PUNCH wrote?

Clearly not.

The police would not need to respond if PUNCH did not report a lie to begin with.
