Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria
God bless my great nation and her proud citizens.

I remember mine. SS3. 'knew this very beautiful calabar girl I had a crush on. But the courage to ask her out just wasn't there. My close friends did try to help and even went as far as setting up a date. But I just couldn't out of fear.

Well one day I summed up a little courage and asked if I could meet her. Again my close friends help set up the meet. You should have little ocelot2006, all restless and scared, all because of a girl. Anyway, she turned up. We had a lil chat before I popped the question (if she'll like to go out with me)....she said yes. You can all imagine the joy and relief little ocelot2006 felt

There was just a lil problem...she was my very first girlfriend. I fell ill the following day. For 2 whole weeks . The love letters that followed sure didn't help matters.

ote author=CAMEROONPRIDE]CAMERPRIDE[/quote]Ok that's it!! Just STOP!!

Cameroonpride, I have officially lost all the little respect I had for you. My friend, YOU ARE A BLOODY LIAR and you have done your nation a great disservice.

You military owns only SIX alpha-jets, yet you posted the following:
-An American F-15
-2 American F-16s
-Pictures of Nigerian troops in Bakassi
-1 Russian Mi-28 attack helo
-Nigerian Navy Logistic ship NNS-Nwamba
And you claim all these to be Cameroonian military platforms?! Mehn, you're definitely a damn crook!! Who dash you?!

Dude you had better go to church, repent for your damn lies, and give praise to God that Nigeria chose to resolve the Bakassi issue amicably in court, else our troops would have been patrolling your captal by now, with our jets controlling your skies and raining the wrath of God on what's left of your sorry military. nonsense.

CAMEROONPRIDE: CAMEROON ths is how we conquered BAKASSI

Dude haba!! Those are NIGERIAN TROOPS!! OUR TROOPS!! Kai !!!

CAMEROONPRIDE: BURUNDI A LITTLE COUNTRY ...THEY DON"T HAVE ANY TANKS

Burundi may have a small military, but they are kicking Al-Shabaab ass in Somalia. 'can't say the same for Cameroun. Please show some respect.

CAMEROONPRIDE: moffo ..we got Bakassi becuz we are stronger come take it back if you can

You got Bakassi because WE CHOSE to hand it over to you. WE CHOSE to comply with ICJ ruling. Prior to that, our military controlled the WHOLE of Bakassi, including airspace and territorial waters. If the conflict had further escalated, we would have EASILY DOMINATED your airspace, blockaded your own territorial water, and even shelled your coastal cities to smithering with naval artillery. We have done it before multiple times, and we can do it again.

If we decide to retake Bakassi, it will be sooooo easy. So ease up on the chest thumping.

Deportation from one state to another? The last time I checked, the constitution still allows Nigerian citizens (regardless of their ethnicity) to settle and do business in any part of the Federal Republic.

torkaka: the OP has posted what he feels and provided proof, if you think otherwise then post your own proof or keep your gutter closed!

Wrong. What the op did was simply deceitful and totally wrong. He should have posted pics of the full hall, not just a small side section.

You guys are so quick to rain curses on the president. But here a lil question: did the picture displayed show the whole hall? If not, then why the insults?

Joyturns2: Summoned sounds like order or something expecially when it's Nigerian reporter that is speaking, maybe it should be "when they met" IMO oooo

The term "summon" is actually quite correct. The President, Vice President, or Minister of Foreign affairs can summon the ambassador of any country to lodge a complaint.

Apart from Douala and Younde, can you post pics of other regions/provinces in your lovely country?

Also, what's your citizens' perception of Nigeria and Nigerians?

somalia5: hopefully alshabaab will get good target on these monkeys

The Kenyans, Ugandans, and Burundi troops are currently using your beloved Al-Shabaab for target practice in your war-ravaged country. If you can't handle these guys, do you khat-chewing fools think you can handle us Nigerians? Think again son.

ujchief: Gen. Ihejirika, the current army chief will retire b4 2015, and has shown interest in Abia politics, owing to the role he and his 'army' boys played during the 2011 election in ensuring Gej gets the 1mil votes from abia and that T.a wins also. Its rumoured that he has eyes set on the government house. Hes stil not from Abia south, but wil certainly contest if the zoning issue doesnt rear its ugly head.

That may not be possible. There're rumors that he may be the next Chief of Defense Staff (VDS) once Air Marshal Petrini retires. And I won't be suprised, cos the general is a very bright officer (one of the best graduating students at War College).

I'm not an Abian, but I'm so happy that Orji's disastrous tenure will soon come to an end. Abians have suffered in the hands of that clown. They deserve way better. But it's up to them to wake up and vote in someone of integrity and the right leadership qualities needed to take the state to greater heights.

sanb: You just made the point "understanding type" which is what a husband should be if he has a career wife...

In other words, the hubby should be able to tolerate the crap the lady begines to dole out when she starts to earn the big buck? No thank you.

Sorry ACN. You still won't smell/touch the presidency.

Is that the best they can do? How about looking for ways to channel the flood waters safely? Or relocating people leaving at the low lands to more suitable areas? And how about working with Cameroun in ensuring that excess water released from their dams are done at a controlled rate?

For the love of God, let these fools learn from Europeans (particularly Neatherlands) and even the Chinese. With advances in technology, particularly in civil engineering, I'm sure a lasting solution to this problem can be achieved. But I'm sure they'll rather divert the funds required for other personal use (e.g house in maitama/VGC, new cars, mistresses, etc)

AjanleKoko: Dem don comot Nnaji for setting.
Na wa. Well played

Well maybe his own firm is part of one the conglomerates that won the bids.

gsalvatore: the drone ran outta fuel during her recon flight not as if the iranians did somtin special to catch/capture the drone. Didn't you hear when the Iranian were attacked cyberly-the worm/viral attack that shut down their systems. Iranians are trying but the US are ahead of them wella!

Ran out of fuel? I'm sorry, but that's a silly excuse. The Iranians captured the drone fair and square, so this excuse of fuel doesn't fly at all.

Btw, this isn't the first time this is happening. If Iraqi insurgents could crack the datalink of a predator UCAV and access its video feeds a few years ago, the Iranians can do a lot worse.

preciousoz: I don't Trust any of these Islamic Nations with dangerous Weapons. When any evil person blaspheme against their religion, I don't see anything that will stop them from deploying a drone to bomb or wipe out the persons neighbourhood in the Name of Allah.

If A serving Government Minister in Iran can place a bounty on the Head of someone, I believe its the Fear of USA and othe superpowers thatz preventing any Islamic contry from declaring a Jihad on Nations (imagine the burning of U.S flags because of a Film not produced by the American govt)

Please stop this people from developing Dangerous Weapns as their claim of defence is not enuf, these drones can easily get into the Hands of Boko Haram in a bid to Islamize Nigeria by force.

God Save Us.

Point of correction: it was a serving Pakistani minister that placed the bounty, not Iranian.

[quote author=Dondbuzor]So this all they can manufacture? Inspite of these their threats!
Iran is destined to doom, mark my words.[/quote
]

Iran is a way ahead of its Arab neighbors technology-wise. They've been producing UAVs for quite sometime, and a couple of those manufactured were successfully deployed against the Isrealis during the 2006 Lebanon war.

Apart from the UAV's, the Iranians have been successful in the cloning and mass production of the American F-5 jet, UH-1 Heuy helicopter, AH-1 Cobra attack helos, ballistic missiles, Surface-to-Surface missiles (SSMs), upgraded versions of the deadly Russian S-300 SAM system, gunboats, etc. And don't forget the small arms (HK G3s, MP-5s, etcs), explosives successfully used against American troops in Iraq.

In a nutshell, underestimate the Iranians at your own peril.

We both have our own individual accounts. But I intend to open a separate combined account for our kids.

fagamite: DUde, its better to be a slave in America than be a king in Nigeria. True talk. There is nothing going on in Nigeria, America on the other hand is just out of this world

Oh my.......*smh*

This proposed air strike against Iran's nuclear site is not going to happen for a number of reasons:
1)The Iranians have learnt lessons from the 1980s airstrike against Iraq's Orsika nuclear reactor. That's why the current facilities are spread out across Iran and heavily protected.
2)As much as Iran's eastern neighbors are weary of it, I seriously doubt they'll grant Isreal access to their airspace. They do that, and they automatically lose legitimacy in the eyes of their people.
3)The Iranians may not have the capabilities to fully block the narrow strait of Homuz. But they can definitely make it very expensive for the West's economy. All they need to do is mine the strait, and undermine Western interest in both Oil-rich Iraq and Afghanistan.
4)An airstrike will NOT end the program, but delay it abit longer. And there's the strong possibility of it finally pushing the Iranians to acquire nukes and the people to rally behind the current theocratic leadership.

vivian chinaza: That should make me so scarrreeeeeeedddddd I guess? Men lie! The good ones lie to get into ur heart, the bad ones like to get into ur bed! Period! So out with ur ire joor!

And what do ladies do? Say the truth?

The story's the same down here in Jalingo, Taraba state. Most fuel stations are closed, and the queue at NNPC Mega station is something else as a single tanker laden with PMS arrived last night. For the past 3 days, the town has been scanty as most folks have parked their vehicles.

You'd think the west would have learnt not to antagonize the Muslim world by banning such videos. But nope.

Jakumo: I'm not familiar with UK police radio protocal, but in the US, while some police radio communications may be encrypted, most routine dispatcher to squad car transmissions can be LEGALLY eavesdropped by civilians using commercially available police scanners sold by good old Radio Shack, with branches coast to coast.

http://www.radioshack.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=2032072

Obviously these devices will most likely NOT work in Nigeria, whose police radio frequency spectrum may differ from those in the UK or USA.

Okay, I stand corrected about the US. I guess it's different over there. But my argument still stands on the British AIRWAVE communication network.

olabiz2010: Listen up guy! don't ever argue on what you don't know. For every encrypted data, there is always a source code to decrypt it. BTW what course did you study?

Simmer the f.u.ck down kiddo. My knowledge of cryptology may be rusty, but I know now that an encyption key is required for successful decryption. But what you should be asking is how easy/difficult to identify the key. To be specific, the COVER TIME required to do so.

With respect to my degree or profession, it's non of your damn business.

olabiz2010: Ta!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Forget about encryption dude, go to advanced countries and see how common repoters normally switch to their sheriff channel. Abi how do you think they are getting first hand information about crime scene. It can happen any time no matter the level of security. With right equipment, you can switch to any channel/frquency of your choice without stealing their walkie-talkies

s

You watch too many movies. In the US and UK, police radio communication is encrypted. Unless you lay your hands on a police walkie-talkie, you definitely won't be able to snoop in.

omoabike: This is crap!! Since when does monitoring Police radio communication stops police anywhere apprehending criminals?
From anywhere in the world, I can monitor Radio communication of lots of Police Departments in the US using a perfectly legal app on my phone called 5-0 Police Scanner http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/5-0-radio-police-scanner/id334624666?mt=8. So does that mean Police in the US do not apprehend criminals?
I beg make them look for another excuse jor.

Communication security is VERY IMPORTANT in law enforcement, particularly the Police Force. What do you think will happen if criminals learn about the status and location of each patrol unit, and its estimated time of arrival (ETA) at a crime scene? Or maybe the travel route for officers assigned to the protection detail of senior govt officials?
