[size=18pt]Ivory Coast: French soldiers 'hand Gbagbo to rebels'[/size]
French soldiers have seized Ivorian leader Laurent Gbagbo from his residence and handed him over to the opposition, a Gbagbo aide has said.

They reportedly went in after French tanks advanced on the compound in Ivory Coast's main city, Abidjan, following French and UN helicopter attacks.

Mr Gbagbo is refusing to cede power to Alassane Ouattara, certified as the winner of the presidential election.

UN peacekeepers accuse Gbabgo forces of endangering the civilian population.

"Gbagbo has been arrested by French special forces in his residence and has been handed over to the rebel leaders," presidential spokesman Toussaint Alain told Reuters news agency from Paris.

News of the arrest was later confirmed by the French ambassador for AFP news agency.

The sad truth about that country called Nigeria is that ethno-religious sentiments have dealt a near-fatal blow to the psyche of so many Nigerians that objectivity is on life support while sentimentalism reigns supreme.

I truly find it difficult to understand how any objective person will choose GEJ over Buhari.

ETHNIC BLINDness aka It's our turn to chop presidency.
So sad yet so true .

dayokanu:
Simply because they didnt give him the questions ahead of time

EXPO PRESIDENT?

roymary:

Yet going by your definition, it means many women get the crap beaten out of them daily.

@ post, really?
Can he then explain how the economy has been so battered in just 13 months under his watch?
Can he explain the depletion of the Excess Crude Oil Account from $32 billion when OBJ was leaving to under $1 billion [as it currently stands now] with no capital projects to show for it?
Can this dude shut up and spare us vocal diarrhoea?
Cant he read the handwriting that we no longer want the Poverty Distribution Party in 9a?
Any one still doubting this guy is a DRUNK SAILOR FISHERMAN?

DRUNKEN SAILOR FISHERMAN!
CLASSIC DISS REPLY.
LOVE IT!

Just a question, is giving a woman a hot slap hitting her?

Sagamite:
Ah, look you!

That is how I mow my lawn in London. I wear my T-shirt and short, put chewing stick in mouth, take cutlass and bendown to start cutting grass whilst singing Waka Fuji music at a loud areaboy tone whilst my Posh white neighbours look on in amazement wondering how dem government fit give this kind of man permission to stay in their country.

Any 1 with an online link to this match?
I dey for office.
Seeing it's 4-0 now

And to think this dude was in College yet running the streetz?
Don't get it?

Never knew Bawo though I recall seeing some of his posts
To think he got knocked out of the game called life by some1 -Nelon-  a year older than him
Bawo choose to study to get on the top in life, Nelon's route was to hustle and smoke weed
Now another body lies 6 feet with unfulfilled dreams rotting away
So sad, but that's just the way it is
No justice in this plane; knocking down another man's hustle just to get yours going on
RIP Bawo, none the less, life goes on

SeanT21:
I love everyone. Thanks for these testimonies. God bless you all.

I was born a Christian

Point of Correction Bros, no one is born a Christian nor Muslim.

@ thread, my walk has been smooth, very smooth then it became patchy, Very patchy until late last year. I have come to know that there's a difference btw head knowledge and heart knowledge. Head knowledge is what many 9ja Christians hold on to yet heart knowledge is what saves and brings results. Like I told someone this morning,I did a check on my life some 3 or so months back and saw too many sinful choices, deliberate sinful choices. Things I had spoken against, encouraged others to let go of were now ensconced in my bosom. My devotional life was non existent, my prayer life shallow and my spiritual life dying. I was in the words of scripture 'becoming a transgressor again by rebuilding what I had torn down' -Galatians 2:18. However, something powerful happened. I personally experienced mercy and it truly humbled me because it broke off my holier than thou attitude [Pharisaical pride] with which I looked upon many who confessed to having challenges in those areas I was now taking refuge in.

None the less, I had to shun off spiritual complacency and start walking straight afresh with God because I was now almost taking His grace for granted by wallowing in sin saying God understands [ Romans 3:7-8  7 Someone might argue, “If my falsehood enhances God’s truthfulness and so increases his glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner?” 8 Why not say—as some slanderously claim that we say—“Let us do evil that good may result”? Their condemnation is just! -NIV ] ,a false gospel many Christian brethren embrace rather shockingly forgetting one day the cup of  the Amorites will become full.

Yet I thank God for restoring by His grace as my Quiet time is now steady since 2011 came unto the scene while my prayer life and other areas have taken a shot in the arm& can only move 1 way i.e. Upwardly Horizontal. Hallelujah.

@ THREAD,
                Reading through majority of posts, I see so many hypocritical replies. What the OP posted happens all around us and we behave as if this is a new thing under the sun.
Let's advice him [even if we grill him and rub it in] or shut the F@#k up.

@ OP, seek spiritual help from your pastor and matured people who can give you honest advice. If you woman can forgive you fine, but if not learn your lessons and go on with life.

porka:
Tunde Bakare wants the Marines sent to Ogun State, where his political opponent is governor, in order to dislodge the 'Houses of Assembly' there. He kept silent about Ekiti State, where his political ally is governor, where minority rules the majority in their House of Assembly.

bAKARE AND dANIEL aRE cHUMMY bUDDIES fROM wAY bACK.
Daniel is GEJ's southwest coordinator that's why.

porka:
Tunde Bakare cannot trust Goodluck Jonathan because he didn't promise him his sovereign conference but prefers Muhamadu Buhari who has consistently said 'Nigeria's main problem is security', that the police only need to work more and Nigeria would be fine. He didn't tell us what Buhari said, OR PROMISED HIM, about the Sovereign National Conference (his Utopia).

Would you trust a GEJ who gave $50,000 transport money to SNG? Why bribe them when U have no ulterior motive?

porka:
Tunde Bakare cannot find anybody in Nigeria who can be a good president apart from Muhamadu Buhari but failed to tell us how Buhari would be able to throw every 'law breaker' into jail as a civilian president when he didn't survive ordinary two years as a military head of state and a brutal dictator, despite suspension of the constitution, trampling on people's fundamental human rights (to life, speech, association, freedom to engage in enterprise and make profit, promulgation of Decree 4 ETC).

Truly amongst the current aspirants, who has a better integrity record than Buhari [Not that I'm rooting 4 him though]. Buhari/Idiagbon may have been able to do stuff if not for been overthrown. He had  good intentions even if he had gone about it dictatorially which alienated him from many people. Apart from him and to a lesser extent, Nuhu Ribadu, who else?

porka:
Tunde Bakare said 'They are all by-products of planless, clueless leadership that has characterized the government of the PDP, especially in the last four years', but persistently called Olusegun Obasanjo's administration names, even predicted his death several times.

Is PDP not planless and clueless? He never said OBJ would die. Post the link to the prophesy please since in your own words, "And had in fact denied several prophecies of his which were recorded on tape."

Tunde Bakare said Nuhu Ribadu's EFCC performed better than Farida Waziri's EFCC but failed to acknowledge the political cover given to Ribadu by Obasanjo.

Why has GEJ not given Waziri the political muscle to peform?

Tunde Bakare wants "progressives" who he said are not serious like the PDP. Just to replace the un-serious with the more un-serious "progressives

"
You are free to vote PDP. After all, you have a choice to do what you like with your vote.

Tunde Bakare said "Not these men who do not know their left from their right. Whose credentials, including educational credentials, must be examined because the way they are functioning, it does not look like they went to school", but cannot articulate his views simply in just one interview. And had in fact denied several prophecies of his which were recorded on tape.

Is that not true of 9ja's political class? Their incoherence? I beg to differ that Bakare can not properly articulate his views. he strikes most people [even his antagonists] as quite intelligent.

Tunde Bakare is inconsistent.

Proof!

Tunde Bakare is our everyday Nigerian politician.

Really!

Tunde Bakare is not serious!!!

Are you?

Tunde Bakare could be a FRAUD!

You've already labeled him worse from your epistle.

Funny? You wan try.

Nsiman:
U blame gej over the silly act u guys are commiting in jos? Let me lecture u briefly u that wants to blame gej. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS, THE TRADITIONAL RULERS SHLD BE HELD ACC'TABLE BY THE COUNCIL CHAIRMEN OF THE AFFECTED AREAS, THE GOV'NOR, JANG SHLd HOLD THE COUNCIL CHAIRMEN OF THE AREAS TOO, THEN GEJ WILL HOLD JANG ACC'TABLE, but the situation whereby u expect gej to be in abuja and knw what is in your pot of soup is rubbish. Josites are shielding pepetrators of these crimes. Security starts with u.

gENOCIDE IS GOING ON IN jOS while Jonathan is daily sipping Amarula and looking for PDP's ticket.
Stuff like what you see in the picture requires a state of emergency by any sane person. However, I forgot we are been ruled by [and also seek ti be ruled by]  heartless idiots who don't gave a hoot about the wasted souls in their quest to get to Aso Rock. Save you are blind, it so easy to see that hell is slowly emptying her contents in 9ja starting with Jos.

semid4lyfe:
Can this Soyinka dude get the ACN ticket ahead of Osoba? Hmmm, I don't think so

Which Osoba? Former governor or his son?
If na former gov, let him leave the stage and stbalize the polity like hin mates e.g. the Lam Adeshinas of this age.
If na the son [as I saw in Punch he was seeking an ACN ticket], what claim does he have to it save for he is Osoba's son?
What has he achieved on his own without the influence of his father?

Let's give JOnathan another four years and I can guarantee you will see a shift from the old ways.

Another 4 years of that dude who uses tampons
NO CHANCE IN HELL!
Do you need eye surgery to see 9ja may became Somalia b4 then?
Guy is too weak.
Weak is even an understatement.
Jos is burning with all the might of government's security yet dude is busy looking for PDP's ticket.
Talk better thing jo!

  Messi? 
Utter Rubbish! If not Wesley Sneijder  , why not Xavi?
Why are we then tackling Gbagbo's sit tight tendencies in Ivory Coast?

Now they are making the same mistake.
Thinking GEJ is clueless!

How long does it take for you to show you have balls?
The dude has been there for about a year now and 9ja is retrogressing.
So make we give am 4 years to finish the country?
No WAY!

Son of her father!

Even THE EXPERIENCE na free!
And then you blast Kelly Handsome when he sings Maga don pay!

RIP.

IF [and a BIG 1 @ that] Arsenal can play every match like this,Champions League,FA Cup and Premiership have only one destination come end of this season.
Lest I forget, We go use Carling Cup drink beer to celebrate.

GEJ,over to you
Afterall this na Federal Road
Stop your propaganda adverts and stop postponing what has to be done till when U rig yourself back into Aso Rock!
