The NDLEA officer was only feeding on your desperation, did you ask him the reason why he ceased your passport? did he state your offence? were you able to prove yourselves to him? If you were able to do that he wouldn't have had any reason to ask you for such a huge amount, the worst he could have done is too ask you to 'find him something'.
Fellow Nigerians it's about time we free free ourselves from all these oppression, fight for your right at all costs, it's worth the sacrifice, i am speaking out of experience, as far as am concerned, no one, i repeat; no one can oppress me, I am a true Nigerian but i have made up my mind to stand for my right, it has been working for me, you should learn to do the same too.
This country is changing, people are rising up to fight against what is 'legally wrong', about a year ago, who could believe that a rigged elections could be taken to the tribunal for fair judgement? But it's happening and there's more to come so there's nothing we cannot achieve if we fight to protect what is right.
Thank you. well put.  |

Quote from: oludayo20 on Today at 12:59:17 PM @Novice1,i don't see any reason why you should offer a bribe to an NDLEA official,in as much as you are not carrying an illegal stuff.you offering a bribe to an official shows that you're partner in crime to the official ,and if I may ask you,what offence have you committed ? Dont u just gerrit? Quote and for all I know he could have planted drugs on us and accused us of being peddlers had we insisted on not playing to his tunes.

I don't know what other people go through, but recently i have had very nasty experiences in Nigerian airports:
1. Friday 2th Apr.- Counted N 16k and paid for a one-way early morning Chanchangi ticket to Abuja from Lagos only for the sales girl at the counter to tell me I gave her 15k. My insistence attracted her colleagues who all joined to defend her, as if i gave her the cash in their presence. One of the even mocked the it is "too early" for me to make noise just for 1 k. I had to pay up the 1k to make my flight for an early morning appointment in Abuja.
2. Wednesday 30th April.-- An unusual crowd of travellers outside Abuja to combine Thursday's public holiday with Friday and the weekend. Airport touts were having a field day. U have to part with b/w 18-20k for a 16k ticket. Aero Contractors jerked up their tickets from 17-19 k. all flights were declared fully booked, if u are not ready t pay through the touts. 9the touts are actually airline staff) and they conduct their nefarious activities with some tacit approval from their employers. Vowed never to pay a kobo to any tout and has to pass another night in Abuja.
3. Sunday 11th May----- Almost late for my 10:35 am Virgin Atlantic flight to London due to the early morning heavy rains, but thank goodness I made it. At the last checkpoint in the MMIA before reaching the departure gates, An NDLEA official by name ADEBAYO, fully aware we are about to miss our flight, seized our passports ( I and two other guys) and told us to "put our heads together" if we don't want to miss our flight. We ranted about extortion, our rights, etal, all to no avail. one of us even offered him N 1k which he refused saying we should have forex on us. It took the special grace of God to make that flight because that guy took us to a searching room, and for all I know he could have planted drugs on us and accused us of being peddlers had we insisted on not playing to his tunes.
I hate to say it, but our Airports are really havens of extortion
Fellow Nairalanders, what is happening in Naija? do you have any airport stories to tell? |

To all Muslim Nairalanders, Please lets end all these arguments through which some insensitive people blaspheme on Allah (SWT) and his beloved Prophet (SAW). Remember there is no compulsion in religion. How Majestic and Pure is Allah above all what they ascribe to him!!!. |
Christianity Etc › Re: Isaiah Prophesied Islam and Christians Accepting It by Novice1(m): 7:33am On Jan 21, 2008 |
aaly2020: Guys and Gals, looking back at history we read that Muhammad heared the voice of an angel in a cave who taught him how to recite the arabian quranic verses. This was memorized by Muhammad before he went to his secretary/friend who was literate to write it down. It was said that the angel spoke the words into Muhammad's mouth. If Muhammad was in the cave, wouldn't that be Satan himself speaking to Muhammad cause Satan can come as an Angel of Light
So there is no claims that Allah or the Muslim God sent the Quran from heaven! this is absurd as this is exactly how an illiterate Muhammad got the verses of the Quran:
On that lonely mountain, in a small cave, called Cave Hira, Muhammad (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) was resting after a lot of heavy thinking. Suddenly a bright Angel appeared in front of him and said the word, “READ.”
Muhammad (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) was born in a place where there were no school, so he never learned to read or write. He was so scared of the bright creature that all he coud say was, “I, I can’t read.”
The angel took hold of him and squeezed him tightly and repeated the word he said before, “Read.” Muhammad cried, “I can’t read!” The Angel grabbed him again and squeezed the breath out of his chest and repeated, “Read.” To save himself from any further pain, Muhammad (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) answered quickly, “What should I read?” Then the angel gave the new Prophet his new message from Allah. He said,
“Read in the Name of your Lord Who created humans from a clot of blood (embryo). Read for your Generous Lord. He is the One Who taught people with the pen what they didn’t know before.”
Upon receiving each revelation, the Prophet asked any one of his companions who could read and write to record it. This was done by the Prophet reciting the revelation he had received from the angel and a scribe taking it down. After the scribe had taken down what had been dictated to him (on the writing material of those days), the Prophet asked the scribe to read allowed what he had recorded - to make sure that he had recorded correctly what had been dictated to him.
(The chapters of the Quran are not arranged in chronological order but in the order of divine preference. For instance, the first verses the prophet received, which begun with "Read! In the name of Thy Lord, ", are in chapter 96, not in chapter 1).
A standard copy of the Quran was made within a few years of the death of the prophet when most of his immediate companions, who had heard him recite the Quran and had themselves committed it to memory, were still living. The prophet's successor, Caliph Abu Bakar, requested Zayd Bin Thabit to compile all the 114 chapters into one volume. Zayd ws chosen because it was he who had taken down most of the prophet's dictation of the revelation. The volume was then scrutinised by the prophet's companions and kept with Hafsah, the prophet's widow.
It was during the time of Caliph Othman, the third caliph some 12 years after the death of the prophet, that a committee was formed, with the celebrated Zayd bin Thabit as chairman, to take on the task of reproducing the standard volume into a number of copies to be sent to all the principle cities, like Mecca, Madina, Kufah, Basrah and Damascus, for other copies to be made from the standard copy sent.
So HERE YOU SEE THE QURAN WAS NOT SENT DOWN FROM HEAVEN, BUT AN ANGEL AS CLAIMED BY MUHAMMAD READ HIM THE VERSES. And you muslims are rejecting doctrines from genuine prophets of the OT and NT of the Bible?
So you know Christians call the Bible as the Old and New Testament? The Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah and God's divine purpose to save mankind. No humans can be SINLESS no matter how hard they try! We are saved only by grace, and the New Testament speaks about the fulfillment of the grace God spoke about through His Son. Can you muslims by praying 5 times a day, trying to do righteousness ever guarantee your heavenly kingdom coming upon you? By the way, the Quran never proved that the people of the book should be CONVERTED to enter heaven! or else your Allah is a liar and not a promise keeper. So don't misuse your own quranic verses.
We don't hate the jews as well cause they were given the revelation of the Messiah. They are loved and the Jews are the promised seed where Christ will be from the lineage of King David as prophecied in the Old Testament. But tell me, muslims, where in any prophecy from the Jews Torah have your revelation of the Quran been spoken about Nothing claims the lineage of Ishmael to be the promised seed either. No prophets came from Ishmael either. and stop dreaming that any part of the Bible is talking about Muhammad at all,
Now what you muslims do is to argue and try to find as much doctrines you can to prove yourselves true. Let the Lord Almighty be the judge!!! and we are saved by grace, not the works of our hands.
Till u learn this, you shall never understand what it means. Do you know why the Jews sacrifice animals to the Lord as burnt offerings? They transfer their sin onto the animal for atonement of their sins. The grace of God is shown in our Lamb of God who was sacrificed for all mankind. TIll you understand this phrases correctly, you won't understand why the Lamb of God was said to be the atonement for the sin of the world.
And Christ said, they shall hear, but never understand, they shall see but never perceive, for their ears are closed and their eyes are shut to the truth! Well, we only can say - see you on judgement day.
Today the believing Christians live with that grace and we know heaven is our reward due to the grace through the Lamb of God. The muslims are still praying hard and trying to live righteously thinking that Muhammad will save them to go into heaven. Oh please, you think that heaven is for mankind without the works of grace, sinful humans |
