Clean sheet pleaseeeeee. Do not concede. Do not! Please Nothing like that anymore!

Van Classy never score self. And he doesnt carry last ooooo

2-0 till halftime is OK for me. Do not concede

dare to believe!!!

Israel has killed more civilian than any other nation in recent years. Yet it is still drumming up for war. God knows best how to deal with tyranical regimes

People have come before him with stricter regimes against Islam. We know how they always end up

So what is wrong with having Yorubas in the new North? There are Yorubas in french speaking Cotonou. They are still our brothers, and always create a voice of Yoruba in the North.

I always knew Accord party was a smokescreen. Now, Oyo politics is clearer. ACN vs PDP (good vs bad).

Bukhari, you are hoping from one thread to another! Go back to this thread and answer the questions posed.
https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-876263.0.html
And yes, the president does not care indeed! It is 5 working days between petition day and today! Labaran Maku probably has not seen the president since then. You are insulting your intelligence Mr. Go back to the thread above and answer the questions posed. Be HONEST WITH YOURSELF!

We still wait for Bukhari to respond. Meanwhile, Onyocha, you can do better than accusing everyone of racism. Let us table this case and make sensible inferences. So far, I have not said any untruths about Mr Bukhari. If I have, please point it out and I will apologise. I only ask that he be honest in reporting his case.

Onyocha, if you are patient enough, you will see reason. Basically, this case is between the police working hard on an investigation, and a man talking much about it with no precise action. Mr Buhkari has accused the Nigerian police, but he is only doing so by word of mouth, with no proofs except what he says and he banks on people like you to be his alleluyah boys. I have not for once questioned whether or not this thing happened. I have purposedly omitted the fact that Mr Buhkari was illegally in the park in the first instance, and he could not provide identification on request. Normally, this should warrant an arrest.
Having said that, you and I will agree that anyone can accuse Nigeria of anything nowadays. The onus is now on us as Nigerians to establish the truth in the matter from facts we piece together. The police have said they do not post their men to that particular park. Therefore, anyone there was not on official duty in the first instance. Secondly, the names he produced did not match anything on the police database. Thirdly, Mr Bukhari was not willing to help the investigators. He refused to show up at the police station.
The reason I am taking this issue personal is because I strongly believe this case is skewed on many levels. I live in Britain and I know how things work. While everyone has a right, they also have a responsibility. If I get robbed of £800 in a park in Britain after its closing hours, I must be ready to give a very very strong reason as to what I am doing at that place and time. I must also be ready to show my identification. Moreover, I do expect that the first thing to do is to report to the police, and not a military general or a presidential special adviser. Also, I will wait for the result of police investigations, if I am not satisfied, I will go to court. I wonder what evidences this man will tender in court to prove this case actually happened. I believe he is trying to prove his innocence by getting the police to admit guilt by funding his trip to Nigeria. We all know the case of Baba Suwe, not a foreigner, but got 25m for wrongful detention. Let Mr. Bukhari come go to Nigeria and prove his case. Also let him be honest in all he does.
So far, I will not pick the obvious incoherences in Mr. Bukhari's statements yet, till he responds to the issues I asked.
And please let us argue this case without bringing tribe into it. The accused policemen do not have Yoruba names. IGP Ringim who invited BUkhari is not Yourba. I want justice for this man and justice for Nigeria. But let him come with clean hands.

Mr Bukhari, welcome to nairaland. Here, people tell the truth and are honest. You have blocked me from your facebook page for telling the world the truth about your case. You cannot block me here, so be ready to tell the world the truth. I also promise you that nairalanders will address your issue in honesty.
I will be posing many questions to you about your case, and I hope you can answer honestly. Please answer or refute the following (mostly the same questions/comments you deleted off your facebook page and blocked me for):
1. Is there any other witness apart from yourself? Did any other person come forward to collaborate any of your stories? If not, then am I wrong to assume that you want the world to believe your words?
2. Your statement has been taken and the issue investigated thoroughly by the police force. The deputy force PRO, Yemi Ajayi has this to say about you: “The man only wants to embarrass us.  We were wondering what he was doing at such a place by 6.00 pm in the evening alone and no other person was in the entire park?  We have also asked him to come forward to give statement but he refused, saying he has travelled.
“The first time he came, he looks unkempt and from his physique and the incoherent manner of his statements, it does not seem he is in his best frame of mind.  I suspect he only wants to embarrass us, but we have commenced investigations on his complaints.  When we post policemen on duty in the evenings, we give them torch lights, but the man said none of them had a torch light.
“We have even run a check on our system to cross-match the names he gave, but we don’t have such names on our staff list.  He even said the policemen claimed they were from the Police College Kaduna but all these are not true.  He has refused to clarify his claims.  However, we plead with him to come forward, so we can get more information that will help us conclude investigation on the matter,” How do you respond to this?
3. The above statement clearly defeats your argument that no one has attended to your case.
4. You take every opportunity to disregard government protocols in you supposed search for justice. You did not report this case to the police at first, you went to other means: You called a military general, presidential special adviser, and later the British High Commision.
5. The Nigerian police detailed one of the best investigating officers in the country to handle your case, he concluded that you were incoherent in your responses.
6. You disregard protocol at will (perhaps because of your almighthy Britishness): you were invited by the Police Commisioner in Abuja, but you left his office because you could not wait for your turn to be attended to. Hail the very special Mr. Bukhari
7. You demanded access to the minister of Police affairs, who personally directed that your case be thoroughly investigated.#
8. You left Nigeria without appearing when requested at the Maitama Police station.
9. You came over to Britain and started opportunistic photo ops with Nigerians to try whip up public sentiments on your case, while you yourself are aware of the fact that you have been dishonest so far.
10. The IGP (topmost police officer in Nigeria) was on your case. He contacted you in Britain to come down to Nigeria so that you can identify those arrested. You refused. You want an ALL EXPENSES PAID TRIP to Nigeria before coming to identify these suspects. NB, you left Nigeria in the first instance with total disregard to Maitama police inspector who asked you to come for further investigations, which you refused.
11. You went to meet Labaran Maku in London, and he politely told you that justice cannot be done if you do not come to Nigeria.
12. In your statement to Maitama police station, you claimed the two police men were from Kaduna police training school, how you knew this still baffles me.
13. THE TWO NAMES YOU MENTIONED WERE NOT FOUND ON THE POLICE DATABASE!!!
More to come after you respond to this.
Finally, I beg Nigerians to please be wise when dealing with issues like this. We all accept that our police force is not the best in the world, but then, I want you to all think on this case.

if it is not panadol, it cannot be panadol. Pounded yam is the real one, poundo is just flour and chemicals that taste like pounded yam. I prefer pounded yam, but offcourse Poundo gives me the feeling that am eating pounded.

I, Khomeini Bukhari, A British Citizen Is Fighting For Justice After Being[b] Robbed By Two Drunk Police Officers In Nigeria[/b]
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Justice-4-Khomeini-Bukhari/185337854889174?sk=info

Dear ALL,

I am writing to everyone until appropriate action is taken by the Government of Nigeria.

I am writing in regards to an incident that occurred on Saturday the 29th of October which till this day has left me very shocked and traumatized and has left a scar on me. My name is Khomeini Bukhari and am a British National.I am the Head of Africa Division of the company I work for. I have been going to Nigeria since January 2009 and have absolutely loved every moment of it. This visit to Nigeria was for the purpose of meeting my fiance in order to make our wedding arrangements and to meet my in laws once again to formalize our plans. On Saturday 29th October, in the evening I entered Millennium Park in Abuja at 7pm as I wanted to relax. Upon leaving at around 8pm two drunk police officers stopped me, they told me no visitors are allowed after 6pm, I explained to them I didn't know this as I'm a visitor and when I entered at 7pm[b] there were lots of people[/b] and nobody stopped me at the gate. They took to me a dark spot in the park and sat me on a rock where they harrased me. I pleaded with them and they were threatening to beat me and strip me Unclad and kidnap me and the rest. They asked for my I.D and I said I left it in the hotel, they then searched me, upon searching me they found 200,000NGN in my pocket and took it from me, they took my Breitling Chronomat Evolution Wristwatch (worth 1.3 million NGN) and took it from me leaving me with practically nothing, they wanted my phone but I begged and cried. They saw my wallet but I had some change in the wallet pocket and not out so they didn't spot it. I am writing this as I'm very uneasy and going through psychological trauma. I rang a Military General and he was trying to help me, as I was trying to discreetly call the Special Advisor to the president he didn't pick. I couldn't make any more phone calls as told me if they see me try and make any phone they will break my phone and told me at this point it is only the three of us so no one can save me, not even the IG of Police nor the President himself. I was very afraid. as in the Nigerian news and in the Nigerian newspapers it always shows how corrupt and dangerous the Nigerian police are and also was very afraid to go to the police station. Over that weekend I had to borrow money from my friends and live very economically.

On Monday 31st October I went to the British High Commission in Abuja and called the Foreign Commonwealth Office and they guided me to Maitama police station. The British High Commission also gave me one of their police escorts to accompany me. I reported to the DIO of the police station and also wrote a full report including the names of the officers and he gave me one Sgt Samson, that day I went with Sgt Samson to the scene and tried my best to re-en-act the scene, he said he will investigate it. After that day I have not heard anything from Sgt Samson nor anyone else in Maitama Police station. The following day I went to the Ministry of Police Affairs, I met with a Mr Victor who said he is the Chief Security Officer to the Minister, he again took a full report from me and he assured me that as I have given a full report with the police officers names that he within 2 days all will be resolved. I asked him about my possessions that were taken of me, he said, that they may not find them but as its the police that did it to me the Government will take full responsibility and compensate me. That day he gave me a Hilux Truck and sent me to FCT Command under the Minister’s instructions, as he claimed, to go and meet with the Assistant Commissioner of Police (operations) Mr Wilson Inalegwu. Upon reaching there he took the documents sent from the Ministry and told me he will assign the best Investigation officer that within a few days all will be resolved, he assigned a Mr Alechenu for me, who till date has not given me any feedback. I have gone back and forth many times to both places however I am not getting any feedback. Unless I don't go to them they dont I don't get an audience. When I call Mr Victor he doesn't pick but when seeing him[b] he just smiles[/b] and says, we are doing our best but does not give me any feedback. Does this mean they dont care, or are they trying to hide the police officers and cover up the story?

On Thursday 17th November I went to meet ACP (operations) Mr Wilson Inalegwu and he told me, he wants me to meet the Commissioner of Police FCT the following day at anytime around 11am. Upon arriving to Command FCT the next day at that time, he was away on a meeting and the Commissioner was in his own meeting. I sat in the waiting room for quite some time then left out of annoyance feeling that they are not serious about my matter. The PA to the Commissioner when talking to him, all he said to me was he will let me know when the Commissioner is free. That is not an answer to give someone.

I am now in Britain and from over here I am still following it up however after giving them my details they have not called me to give me any update. I texted Mr Victor (Chief Security Officer of the Minister of Police Affairs) and the Assistant Commissioner of Police Mr Wilson Inalegwu after there was no reception on their phones on the 21st of November and have not received a response.

Since I arrived I have also emailed the Foreign Commonwealth Office and the Nigerian High Commission. The SA of the Nigerian High Commissioner, Mr A.O.Enikanolaiye, did not respond to my email however, when I called him on the 30th of November 2011, he said Robberies happen everywhere, and I asked do they happen everywhere by the police or by criminals, he had no answer. Then he said you have reported it to the Nigerian Police so Im sure they are handling the case. I said I have given them precise details and since I went to their office, which I have several times, I have not received any feedback, they have my UK number and have not bothered to even call. Then again he stayed quiete. He then said currently the High Commissioner is too busy to see me, I asked has he seen my email, he responded he is too busy to see me but if I want to see him (meaning himself) he can meet me. I said I was a visitor from Great Britan to your country and I got robbed by the Nigerian police and they took a lot of money of me and the High Commissioner is too busy to meet me to even say anything, so he doesnt even have 30 minutes for me. I asked when is it then possible to see him, even if its anytime this week or next week or even the week after, he said he doesnt know. Now the conversation was longer than this but its a shame they are downgrading this event, its a shame they are not doing anything about it. In Nigeria a lot of crimes are done by the police but that does not make it right. Are they covering themselves, do they think if they mess me around I will eventually give up. I have no intention of giving up till I get justice. This type of event is completely unacceptable.

Does the Nigerian Police really care that I got robbed of my possessions. I feel they know who the police on duty were. How can it be after I have given the names they still have not found them (The two police officers that robbed me, their names are Samual Ekpah and Daniel Marcus). If my descriptions were vague I could understand but I gave them full details.

As you all know I have been all over the news, I have been in several Newspapers and also on TV. In addition more news reporters from Britain and Nigeria are very interested in my case.

I AM DOING THIS TO GET JUSTICE. I WILL NOT STOP TILL I GET JUSTICE. I PLEA WITH EVERYONE ON THIS SITE TO PLEASE SUPPORT MY PLEA. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE NIGERIA BUT AM VERY SAD THAT NO ONE IN THE GOVERNMENT SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED. PEOPLE IN THE GOVERNMENT ARE MEANT TO SERVE AND PROTECT US, NOT NEGLECT US.

I BELIEVE IF I TRULY LOVE NIGERIA I WILL FIGHT THIS TILL THE END. IF I GET JUSTICE THEN THE NIGERIANS WHO HAVE SUFFERED THE SAME TYPE OF THINGS WILL HOPEFULLY ALSO GET JUSTICE.

LASTLY,I WOULD LIKE TO PLEAD WITH ALL YOU WONDERFUL PEOPLE TO PLEASE TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY ABOUT THIS GROUP SO THEY CAN ALL PARTICIPATE AND SUPPORT THIS GREAT CAUSE.

With Regards,

Khomeini Bukhari

See our life Nigeria!!! He wants government attention, please count the number of GOVERNMENT offices that had attended to his case within days! He has tactically ommited the response of the British High Commission and Commonwealth office. Also, I guess its OK for me to go to British High Commision in Nigeria and demand to see the high commissioner for issues I have with met.police while in London. Nigerians please let us rise up and use our brains. He has shredded our integrity in one single essay, and yet people are joining this greaaaaattt course. Superb!

If people can just do a bit of google work, they will be able to make the right conclusions about this man. He is not in any way a coherent person. Till date, his only evidence is his own statement. No one witnessed it, no one to even collaborate his visit to the park. The police authorities have taken this case up to the highest possible place. The IG has been involved. House committee on Police invited this man's petition. He has not been available to give further evidence. The police have arrested 7 people and have called him to come identify them, but he will prefer to stay in UK and say thrash over there. Even the new IG has promised to help him as far as he helps himself.  All this is not enough for him. He went to UK and started disturbing the Nigerian high commision to the UK. This is gross and silly of him offcourse. My question remains why is his own government not even taking him serious? Because they see that his case lacks merit. But knowing Nigerians for what we are, we will jump and kill ourselves for oyinbo or koraaa.
When people say an injustice has been commited against Khomeini, they should please be ready to give evidence. I can sit here and claim the british police stole my £1m, but no evidence to back it up. He claims to know the names of the police officers involved, these names returned zero match in the police database. They asked him some cogent questions which should prove whether those people were police or not, he could not answer. You all can make your conclusions as you like, but let us all be sensible.

This man is best ignored. Why is the british foreign office not even taking his case up? Why is he not taking Nigerian Police to court if his evidence is strong enough? Is he going to be honest to actually say how much the Police have devoted to his case and found nothing? Will he be honest enough to admit his incoherent statements so far?
People have been sympathetic to his cause and blind to the actions of the state. Nigeria may not be the best state, but we still have some things working? Few police officers were ordered to follow this man to the scene of incidence immediately after he reported the case, they didnt find anything! The names of police officers he mentioned is not even in the database!

And I beg to disagree with Zainab on the point of North sustaining Nigeria pre oil era. I will invite her to state her facts anywhere she can. Oil ruined my family business of cocoa export just as it drowned the groundnut pyramids in kano.

The problem of the North/Hausa-Fulani is numerous, but tracing it to the root is challenging. I will trace it to the British government. They created a false air of believe in a Northern supremacy which was only a form of respect from other regions. Brilliant youths from the North have been let to waste away in this false believe. If Nigeria had been balanced at independence, with population figures rightly quoted, with parliament balanced, the North would have worked extra hard to catch up with the advantaged south. It is highly unfortunate that even children born today are made to believe in this fallacy up North. What this leads to is a celebration of mediocrity and a beclouded judgement.
While the West pursued education, the North pursued consolidation on power, while the east pursued industry (generally). Now Education and Industry is catching up with power, and very soon government will not be able to feed many people. It is not as if the North does not have brilliant people. In fact, I will boldly say that the North can produce as much intellectuals as any other region in NIgeria. But they have to first put their house in order and do away with this mirage they're swimming in. The North is declining indeed, but who will be honest to say this? 2015 is close by, power will be advocated to return to the North, after that nko? Education advancement? Zero!

Slapping Vitali was bad, but his fight wasnt. He actually rattled vitali in the fight. BUT, as usual, full of drama, He is now in police detention for fighting with David Hayes. Actually, I feel it was David who punched him first with bottle in his hands.
Oh, and he has promised to shoot David Hayes, Gen gen,

In what can be termed suicidal slap, a relatively underdog, Dereck Chisora, has slapped massive favorite, Vitali Klishkov in the face during their weighing in in Germany. The fight comes up tomorrow, and now I will watch the fight. It would normally be a win for Vitali, but how will he respond to that slap? I fear blood on Chisora's face tomorrow,

Why do people always say 'if he didnt do this, everything will collapse'. Same fraud they preached during subsidy that if they didnt remove it, economy will crash. Economy crashes everyday, but Nigerians never crash. I have strong reservations of Sanusi, so if I compare them, I will be biased against him. But so far, he really has not covered himself in glory.

gen gennnn,

Ojukwu's explanations mimick the same we hear daily on nairaland. It doesnt necessarily have to be the truth. The questions were prepared and so were the answers. After the interview, Ojukwu(late) gestured to the interviewer in a way to suggest he had dropped what was expected of him. My only prayer is that Nigeria can move on with justice and equality. All these old men and dead men should not be allowed to shape our future.

In all our celebrations, let us remember Obafemi Awolowo. When others were using the money from oil boom to build empires and strengthen caliphates, he build Cocoa house, NTA and Great Ife! Today, how many universities can compete with OAU's infrastructure?

A good move that can backfire if OOU is not improved upon. But I thought Tasued was better that OOU (which was a hub for cults and badt gals last time I checked)

My first day in Ife, I will never forget, My first lecture in Ife, I will never forget baba Fakunle, I remember my first evening at Moz, I remember a forgettable day at old buka, I remember risky burger in Angola for 50 naira. If not for OAU, I would not be as bold as I am today. Long live great Ife

djustice:
There is too much operational and religious detail in this for it not to be real. I myself have observed over the last couple of years, an alarming increase in the numbers of northerners suddenly arriving in and taking up residence in Lagos. Most of them are given okadas by their sponsors, and thus learn the layout of the city fairly quickly. I thought it was bad in Lagos, until I visited Ibadan recently. I use the term northerner loosely, as a large number of them are actually not Nigerians, but Chadians, Nigeriens, Malians and Senegalese! I also say "given okadas" because I've personally witnessed at least one individual, who lost his okada to LASTMA for driving against traffic and not wearing a helmet, at Iponri. I saw the same guy the following day, on a brand new Okada!! How could he afford it? This caused me to investigate further, and I'm made to understand that the National Chairman of the NURTW, who is a Fulani, is personally behind the influx of Northern riders into much of the south west. The governors are allowing it because the NURTW pays them huge amounts out of the monies they extort from their own members daily. That's why at least in the South West, the Governors are VERY involved in choosing the NURTW leaders in their states.

Southerners, Christians and Muslims, need to wake up from this state of perpetual slumber that they seem to be in, so much so that they cannot see the strategic weakness in being surrounded by an increasingly large army mostly young, fit, able Northern Okadamen, maiguards, beggars, mai ruwas, mai suyas, mai shais and others in their own towns and cities. Even if this guy is wrong, (and I don't think he is, on the balance of obvious evidence), considering the unrelenting and successful nature of the Boko Haram onslaught, it is time to wake up and smell the coffee, both for Southern Governors and people, and especially the serving and retired men and officers of the Nigerian armed forces and police of Southern origin!

If our fathers thought the way you're thinking, then SW will not be buzzing with business activities as it is witnessing currently. We all know the ground is hard up North. Your theory will fit well into FOX news special. The way you muddled your way to make yourself look sensible is indeed commendable. Next time you see that okada man, help me say ranka dede to him. Btw, do you have a job?

This man story na wash.
Suddenly, there is Paul Ado Bayero, the illustrious son of the emir, who was conscripted into BH and who has the original Quran which I dont have. Desperate times for these lie-vangelist o
