To be very honest, I dont believe that certain men dont cheat. That tendency is always there, it just manifest with time, condition and state of mind. Never kill yourself over anybody. For all I know, he might be sleeping with your best friend. Yes!

Let's see how the multinational force will fare in the new intervention. Our prayers are with them.

Fhemmmy:
2007 FX35 will be roughly 3.9M Naira before new tariff.

OK sir. Let me look at my options. Tanx for obliging me.

I sent u a text on Feb. 7th. You haven't replied.

Fhemmmy:

Thanks for your time on our thread, you are appreciated. ... That is a budget for a 2004 model or on a very good day 2005 model.
clearing alone is 700K and 800k Naira respectively.
Another 410k Naira will go to shipping, transportation, BOL courier, koney transfer and the rest.
So imagine what is left converted to $ at rate of almost 210 Naira to a $

So am looking at raising my budget to like how much?

I was wondering if the Infiniti fx35 or fx45 2007/2008 model toks can be procured at the rate of N2.5mil to N2.6mil. My budget, is it OK?

How much for low mileage, clean tokumbo Infiniti fx45 2007/2008 model?

ambrosini593:
Ojoro. That result is fake. We want to see his waec result or the master list showing buhari`s name. Na fake o

You didn't see the University of Cambridge WASC result master list that was also attached?

So the original Cambridge WASC result sheet was equally produced. I would have questioned the suitability of all the generals in the Nigerian Army, infact let all of them produce the original result sheet as Buhari has done.

Modu Sheriff is a PDP chieftain.

Is this supposed to be a prophecy? People get rushed to hospitals, no body goes without ailments.

I think this is the most realistic hypothesis on the book haram imbroglio.

klodike:
Another conspiracy theory.

This is too real to be a conspiracy theory.

I think its time to look at other perspectives beyond the politics of 2015.

Boko Haram: The Mystery Solved

Karl Marx’s thesis that economic conditions determine the basis of existence is yet to be proved wrong. It is one tool I always apply in the course of discovering the real motives behind what people say or do. But I must confess that unravelling “Boko Haram”, which many now call insurgency in the north, has put this scientific method in doubt for the past five years.

Somebody solved the riddle on Wednesday: former Senate president and former minister Dr Iyorchia Ayu. In brief, this is what Ayu said at the 5th Convocation Lecture of the Adekunle Ajasin University:

The oil wealth beneath the Chad Basin is fanning the embers of insurgency in the country because prominent businessmen and politicians in both Nigeria and Chad, in association with French companies, have invested heavily in oil exploration and exploitation. They are the principal financiers of, and arms suppliers to, Boko Haram. The group’s destabilisation of the north-eastern part of Nigeria benefits these investors because it delays exploration and production on the Nigerian side of Lake Chad.

The Lake Chad Basin is estimated to have a reserve of 2.32billion barrels of oil, and 14.65trillion cubic feet of natural gas. The oil and gas flows underground across the countries sharing the Lake Chad Basin: Nigeria, Chad, Niger and Cameroun. Using 3D drilling, Chad is not only tapping oil within its territory but also from Nigeria, to push up its production levels.

Boko Haram is made up of Nigerians and a large number of Chadians from the Chadian provinces of Lac and Hadjer Lamis – provinces that share a long border with north-eastern Nigeria around the Lake Chad region and provide Boko Haram with trained Chadian fighters.

The drying up of Lake Chad, once the largest water body in Africa, is affecting the economic and social life of over 30 million people in the four countries around the lake. This has resulted in the migration of many farmers and herdsmen as well as engineered local conflicts between Camerounian and Nigerian nationals; fishermen are fighting farmers and herdsmen to stop diverting water from the lake to their farms and livestock.

The disappearance of Lake Chad and subsidiary rivers has also created a large population of unemployed and discontented youth who have become a reserve army easily available for recruitment by the insurgents.

So far, Boko Haram has not attacked any territory in Chad but has a cluster of bases in Chad from where it launches its terrorist activities in Nigeria. President Idris Deby of Chad is said to have cordial relations with the insurgents.

The accuracy of Ayu’s postulation could be doubted only by fools. Many of us have often pointed fingers at politicians as those behind terrorism in the country. But Ayu has mentioned the type of politicians – those with economic interests to protect. Therefore, Boko Haram is not sponsored by anyone aspiring to be the president of Nigeria. It is not backed by the PDP or the APC. Also, Boko Haram has nothing to do with Islam or Christianity, north or south. Neither is it a crusade against western education.

The people behind the masks have used all these and other tricks to cause a war that would enable them to corner the oil wealth flowing under the north-east’s soil. Have they really succeeded?

Oil is a curse indeed. From the early days of insurgency in the north-east, the suspicion that some foreign powers were behind it has persisted. The Nigerian government itself seems to know the truth but has done little to tackle the enemy despite the myriad of agencies pretending to be protecting the safety and security of Nigerians and the Nigerian borders. The security agencies seem to be fighting one another because a lot of cash has been made available for the “Boko Haram” war.

A strong Nigerian leader would have since sent troops to overrun Chad or any other neighbouring country that provides a haven for terrorists. If France or any foreign oil company came to the aid of such a country, we would be able to consume both the beans and the weevils inside them. The Nigerian armed forces should work; soldiers exist to fight wars, not to eat pepper-soup or accumulate money with which to contest elections after retirement.

The Black man deserves pity. While the White man looks a century ahead and strives to achieve his goal, the Black man offers himself to be used to destroy his own people. The plot to balkanise Nigeria and steal the oil in the north-east must have preceded the forecast that Nigeria would break up in 2015. For anything that threatens the economic interests of certain powers does not stand. During the Cold War, we learned how progressive leaders in Africa were removed or killed through sponsored coups and counter-coups. In recent times, we have witnessed the overthrow of Muammar Ghaddafi of Libya. Each plot was carried out with the citizens of each country.

It is in this light that all Nigerians should now see the patriotism exhibited by Gen. Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu 46 years ago. Many know that the Nigeria-Biafra war was instigated by foreigners, but only a few know that it was also about oil. In the middle of the war, the Soviets approached Ojukwu and asked for a part of Biafra’s oil in return for fighting on Biafra’s side. Ojukwu vehemently rejected the request because he did not want his country to be a theatre of war among the western powers. The federal side gratefully received the British in order to “crush” the “rebels”. Yet, had Ojukwu accepted the Russians’ proposal, Biafra would have survived and perhaps millions of Nigerians more would have been killed.

Compare Ojukwu with the Nigerian businessmen that have been fuelling terrorism in the north-east. While Ojukwu fought in defence of his people, the terrorists of the north-east are killing their own people. It is laughable that a Lagos court had to jail one of those found guilty of financing terrorism for only 10 years. These are people working with foreigners to destroy their country; they have killed almost 20, 000 and displaced millions of people. Their wickedness is made more manifest by the fact that they have been killing and kidnapping students and defenceless villagers.

My gratitude goes to Dr Ayu for solving the mystery surrounding Boko Haram. I have little doubt that the 2015 elections – if they eventually take place – will be the last straw. The invading forces are likely to lavish money on saboteurs and impoverished Nigerians to kill themselves so that this mineral-rich land would be left for them to exploit. Indeed, the heart of man is wicked.

If Nigeria would not work as one nation, let us revisit the idea of confederation. Rather than prepare for polls in 2015, we should implement the National Conference’s report, especially as it concerns the six-state structure. A semi-independent north-east might even decide to merge with its kith and kin in Chad, Cameroun and Niger. Under an effective government, no region would be helpless in defending its people from external aggressors.

Sllowppoisoon: 20pairs of shoes = Prison wt hard labour
Billions of Naira = Political god-father

D choice is urs...typical 'Tinz time end'

Its crazy you know. Petty thieves having sentences, armed robbers aka militants rewarded with billions of naira while the real thieves, stealing our future in thrillions become political god-fathers.

Crazy world, shytes stealing billions are celebrated whilst a hunger induced theft of a piece of meat is met by a very hot slap!

shadrach77: we still have a long way to go in Nigeria. Imagine a state owned "stadium" which is not fit enough to be a training facility in a developed country. Stadium indeed!

Why is it that most Africans have this inferiority complex? So we should not commend the state owned stadium simply because we are comparing our facilities to developed nations? Haba, be proud of your self for a while man.

I wonder who smuggled Jamaican weed to this guy.

You cannot force anyone to do charity. Leave the young man jare.

nijanigga: Tiv governor just like all tivs they like rats,women and money. In tiv language money is called "nyare". "Oh! nne, Nyare ki ga".

And how is your response related to the post under reference. Bloody tribalist! grow up. Even a Tiv man that responded to this post did better than your bigoted mind.

torkaka: and a fool has spoken;

highlights of his ranting:

1.some of the 19 northern governors voted against the agreed format they were supposed to vote.

2.Rotimi Amaechi is a desperate man

interpretation:

we sat down and agreed to vote for Jonah Jang but some governors did not fulfil their promise and instead voted for Rotimi Amaechi. this made Amaechi win but Amaechi would have accepted defeat in victory because we held a meeting whereby we decided that Jang will win and so therefore Amaechi is a desperate man for rightly winning while Jang is not desperate inspite losing and parading himself as winner.

conclusion:

Suswam needs a brain surgery!!
