burgerking: If you think i am being unfair, just take a snapshot view of all the troubled spots around the world and the united states disproportionately features_
- Northern Nigeria- boko Haram; US accused of being involved, carry out ur research
- Southern Phillipine - abu zayad terrorists; never heard of them
- Eastern Malaysia- recently occupied by philipino based islamic terrorists; never heard of this too
- Burma- migrant moslems from bangladesh went on killing spree, which resulted in the indeginous Bhuddists taking revenge. Burma is a politically imbalanced country
- Southern Thailand- islamc terrorosts have beheaded seevral Bhuddists; never heard of this too, are this recent developments or u're just witch hunting?
- Chechyen and other moslem domintaed caucauses of Russia are rife with violence
- somalia- where do i start
-Sudan- a basket case; Sudan is a case if north vs south, a civil war actually, fuelled by the UN so that the US can lay their sticky hands on South Sudan's oil
- Afghanistan- a failed nation; US armed Al-Qaeda to defeat Russia during the height of the cold war
-Iraq- sitting on a sectarian time bomb (shiites/sunni) rivalry. US began a war ere so as to tap into Iraq's oil. Sadder Hussein wasn't better off anyway. BTW, they once armed Saddam to fight against Iran in the late 20th century after Iran eyes opened and they drove out a US puppet govt led by the Shah
- Syria- need i say more; Liar, is Syria a Muslim or Arab country? Or isn't the US arming the rebels?
-Kashmir. Wetin happen 4 ere?
-Israel and Palestine. Y're u blaming Palestine, blame Israel too, and NATO
- Bosnia (even when at the heart of europe, they remain hooked to violence ideology)
- The whole middle east will implode, just a matter of time when sunni/shiite rivalry reach a tiping point
-Mali (Alquida in Islamic Magreb)
-Yemen- another basket case
- Bharain- fighting for it's survival
-Bangladesh- another failing islamic state
- Pakistan- a failed nuclear armed state. India nko?
- Egypt, Tunisia: so much political instability. Arab countries
The list is far from been exhausted.
Why is Islam always associated with violence?
Why do moslems resort to killings at the slightes provocation

nairawall: My suggestion is for seun to setup this huge monumental project (Nairaland) as a proper company with a proper office and staffing. He can employ a mix tech professionals from within Nigeria and also outside Nigeria.

I was shocked when I contacted Nairaland.com that I wanted to advertise, to my amazement, seun personally wrote me and the account I was asked to pay into was a personal account.

A website this large and already about coming within the first 1,000 websites in the world should have a proper management and team.

Anyway, it is the Nigeria way of doing things as usual.

osundu: Gentlemen,am happy dat a lot of u have good tins to say abt the barracks.so poster,PISS OFF!

yuzedo: Lol! Went thru this crap last month. The foolish immigrations people singled me out for random search/questioning.

What do you do? I am a Financial Analyst in a Private Equity firm. Ok, please come down from the bus.

They go through my phone. They go through my laptop! On my laptop they saw the movie "Police Academy" and raised alarm, what am I doing with sensitive documents eh? Is this not the Police Academy in Kano? This must be classified info! Who are you and why do you have this on your system?

Chai! See the ignorant, illiterates we entrust our security!

I got home at 12am that day after leaving Accra at 7.30am. Meanwhile some days prior to that I arrived accra at 8pm. All because the Nigeria axis is a failed portion of the journey.

Police Academy, Kano!

Sincere 9gerian: These are some of the things the Nigerian press should investigate and highlight. But unfortunately they'r too busy reporting politics.

4: Quoting of ur comment: There should be an alert for when someone quotes ur comment just as the alert for Likes. Atimes its hard perusing through about 100-150(like the travel section threads)pages of comments trying to see if someone replied ur question or comment. The alert that more comments have been made on the thread on which you commented is not enough

SimonAndal: Let's continue:

I've often been told I'm selfish. Well they're very correct. In fact, I take pride in my selfishness. I mean, not that I'm overtly wicked or something like that, but I tend to go out of my way to keep my stuff from people. I've been referred to as antisocial. Whatever.

Selfishness pays off at the end, it might not be in the way you expect, but it does. Now nobody asks me for foodstuffs anymore, or my earpiece, or my pc. That's nice. They've learnt. That might result in having fewer friends, but something I've realised (from experience) is that friends come and go, but you remain.

cogitoErgo: Following a protest which led to the killing of students of Nasarawa state University last Monday, President Goodluck Jonathan has approved the construction of boreholes in the state owned institution.

While the students were protesting against the persistent shortage of water in the school, a detachment of soldiers stormed the school hours into the demonstration and in a bid to disperse the protesters fired live bullets that killed least two of them. The students however claim four were killed and not two as claimed by the state government and other security agaents.

However, in a response to the uproar the incident had sparked, President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday approved[b]N20 million to the management of the university for them to commence work on the construction of bore holes in the school[/b].

Jude Imagwe, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Youth and Student Matters, presented the letter of approval for the boreholes to the Vice Chancellor of the University, Shamsudeen Amali, when he led other students union bodies to the school.

He quoted Mr. Jonathan as saying that the gesture was aimed at enhancing availability of water as well as to reduce the plight of students, which led to the last week students’ unrest.

“I am disturbed and worried about what happened in which some students lost their lives as a result of the protest,” the presidential aide quoted the president as saying.

“The sum of N20 million was approved to the institution to enable it sink more bore holes in order to reduce the problem of inadequate water supply in the institution.

“He who provides water provides life. Life will be unbearable to the students if there is scarcity of water in the campus. They (students) will not even concentrate on their academic activities at the same time,” he added.

The president described the incident that led to the killing of the university students as unfortunate and uncalled-for.

He urged the student union bodies to always employ dialogue and peaceful means in fighting for their rights.

Responding, the vice chancellor thanked the president for the gesture, saying it would go a long way in addressing the water scarcity in the school.

Amali promised to make judicious use of the money for the purpose it was meant.

He denied inviting military personnel to quell the students’ protest that led to the killing of two students of the institution.

The President of the Students Union Government of the University, Rabiu Tijani, thanked President Jonathan for the gesture, saying the steps taken by the state legislature to bring the perpetrators of the act to book was laudable.
