PoliticsRe: Gunmen Kidnap Diezani Allison-Madueke's Brother by PapiWata:
If the kidnappers are expecting a chunk of cash to be handed over by a Nigerian minister known to regularly charter private jets for business and personal travel costing several hundred times the price of a commercial airline ticket, they may be disappointed when they fail to raise so much as a penny from the kleptomaniac minister, who most likely couldn't care less about the fate of anyone but herself.

Matter of fact, it is entirely possible that the thieving minister personally financed and organized the kidnapping of her biological sibling, in order to silence him, perhaps after a falling out of sorts, in which the brother demanded hush-money from the minister one too many times. If the minister turns out to have organized the abduction of her relative, it is possible that the victim has already been sent to join his ancestors, with a little help from his captors, who will most likely be paid very well for that task, rather than for a freeing of the hostage as expected.
CrimeRe: Man Arrested At Lagos Airport With Indian Hemp Stuffed In Gala (photos) by PapiWata: 10:15am On Mar 19, 2015
This failed drug smuggler should thank his lucky stars that he was detected in Lagos and not in China, his intended destination, where his internal organs would have been harvested for sale to the medical transplant black market, after the smuggler received his mandatory AK bullet to the back of the head, for which known family members are normally sent a government invoice demanding payment for the bullet used in the execution of the convict.

The smuggler must have been an absolute dimwit to imagine that stuffing his luggage for an international flight with frigging sausage rolls, of all things, would not arouse suspicion, especially since the import of most food items is prohibited at most international airports anyway.

Okijajuju1:
I have studied Islam and this isn't Islam..


These are just a bunch of lunatic psychopaths who hide behind Islam to satisfy their thirst for blood. Even if the entire Iraq becomes solely Muslims, these animals would still kill.

This is what religion has brought us. All religions are equally guilty here.
These true but often contested words could have been written by Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka, and I would not be in the least bit surprised if it transpires in the fullness of time that "Okija Juju" is a nom-de-plume created for use in the Nairaland forum by none other than Kongi himself.

Yes indeed Okija. Nigeria, as an illustrative example, holds the dubious distinction of ranking VERY high among the world's most religiously observant nations, yet Nigerian streets frequently flow with the blood of lynched petty thieves, accused witches, purported bedroom tackle removers, alleged kidnappers and the mentally challenged, all beaten, hacked and burnt to death by baying mobs of "God Fearing" Nigerian citizens who require only the tiniest of exhortations to unleash their innate inner beast amid a horde of fellow blood-thirsty "Good Samaritans".

The barbarity carried out by the ISIS death-cults in Iraq, Syria and Libya is already being aped by the Boko Haram demon-worshiping sect invading West Africa, but this similarity in genocidal mindset is no coincidence, since the often stated long-term objective, shared in common by ALL the disparate forces of evil currently placing the civilized world under siege, is the creation of a GLOBAL kingdom of terror loosely based on the current situation in North Korea, where the arbitrary starvation, torture and conveyor-belt slaughter of entire populations has been streamlined and industrialized.

The APC has actually done an impressive job in remodeling the image of Buhari. I can't believe that Buhari would involve his family in his political life or let his wife organize campaigns and forums.

Its such a shame that he'll lose again, he should have stuck to his word in 2011 and stopped contesting for the office of the president. Seeing Zahra cry if her father loses will be painful
Ha ha ha you sounded so fondly appreciative and won over witnessing the endearing spectacle of the family angle being played in a desperate futile bid to score pre-election election brownie points by our debate-avoiding weeping general Boko Hari, but then you just went ahead to ease in the long blade nice and slow like, before finally twisting it HARD for good measure when the impalement was complete.

To each his own opinion smiley
That observation is an understatement for sure.

V.D. Jaguda is a cold-hearted mass-murdering slum landlord who IGNORED building safety codes, erected an ILLEGAL structure 6 floors high, on a foundation meant to support only ONE floor, and then hired thugs to BLOCK ACCESS of emergency ambulance crews sent to the rubble of his building, for the duration of a whole ffucking DAY after the uncompleted structure spontaneously imploded, maximizing the number of injured who ultimately died under the ruins of his ILLEGALLY constructed six-floor hovel.

V.D. Jaguda does indeed bear a very strong physical resemblance to one Mr. Satan of the Fiery Pits fame, so it is little wonder that Pastor VD can barely contain his glee whenever announcing "premonitions" of more death and destruction in store for other people, having deliberately kept away rescue squads who could have saved many lives during those precious first few minutes after his death-trap illegal building collapsed under its own weight less than a year ago.

For intentionally blocking access to emergency services responding to the scene of his own collapsed multistory warehouse for human beings, TB Jaguda's greedy grasping paws are forever stained with the blood of those scores of his own followers who were buried under the rubble of his rickety building, along with that of the wounded who awaited salvation that never came, thanks to the pastor's hired goons who kept emergency services away from the disaster site for a full 24 hours starting on that fateful day.

Bottom line it didn't work out, they forgot that the best way to reduce armed robbery or war is to be fully prepared for it, NPF, Na, NN needs to upgrade but pot bellied, beer gulping, politically appointed head of offices unfit to lead are the ones running the show

Recoil and reload rifle chamber takes less than 5 seconds, you'll have the advantage of masked location and precision over Admittedly a dangerous Hail of bullets, Besides everybody scampered to safety no target for armed robbers to shoot at, but you would be on a high rise building, you'd have bird eye's view of the ground below and simply take them out one by one, if two dies the other one would want to escape, he gets to boat, driver is dead, the roads are filled with abandoned vehicles, no escape route, simple as that
You's a bad muffukuh ha ha. Here's hoping the Nigerian police start to train up some long-range snipers, for they do have applications in this sort of scenario for sure.

You have made a good point, DaBullit, in that if you use a rifle that is silenced with a moderator, as they are called in the UK, your location will not be exposed when you open fire.

http://www.silencerco.com/about/

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuimpDKCmUaW6qnMMp7XE7Q

The problem with that strategy is that while your own sniper location might not be spotted by the bad guys, killing one of them will cause the rest to unleash a firestorm of hot lead against ANYONE and ALL buildings or cars in the area, thereby killing SCORES of people in vengeance over your precision killing of one out of their number.

If your objective is to preserve civilian life, then provoking a machine-gunner to open up shooting wild in a built-up area will result in MASSIVE collateral damage in the form of dead civilians scattered all over within 200 yards of where the machine gunner lets fly in ALL directions.

Finally, saving the best and costliest for last, we have the Area Fada of all Drones, which I imagine costs at least $20 thousand US per unit - The Stationair, made in France. This monster is powered not by batteries, but by a turbo fan engine that runs on aviation kerosine, and offers a whopping 1.5 HOURS of flight time, which is unmatched by any other drone on the commercial market, and thus is entirely in a class of its own, for ridiculously long flight time, during which it can cover a range of 30 kilometers.

Look at our forums http://kenyachat.webkenni.com
There definitely exists a "Kenyan English" which contains enough Swahili words as to render the dialect completely impossible to understand by a non-Kenyan, just as Hawaiian Pidgin English, which coincidentally bears many similarities with West African pidgin English, can be extremely difficult for non-native Hawaiians to comprehend or speak.

For the purposes of informal communication, pidgin English, in all its global variants, serves a vital unifying role in facilitating mutual understanding between those schooled in the Queen's English, and those who were not so fortunate. With that in mind, there is no constructive purpose served by peering down one's nose at ANY English-based dialect that has survived human evolution until the present day in any extensive or localized geographical region to be found on the surface of this green planet.

I watch too many action movies for sure ha ha. Returning to African Third World reality, even a cash-strapped nation like Nigeria can certainly afford to buy DOZENS of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), whose prices online range from $200 USD at the low end for hobbyist RC pilots, right on up to top-of-the-line professional grade GPS-guided drones carrying high-definition, high-magnification video cameras, and featuring way-point-programmable auto-pilots capable of returning to their launch site at the touch of a button, all for $10 thousand US dollars or less per fully kitted bird.

With that vital eye-in-the-sky hovering silently over active crime scenes and relaying LIVE, real-time video footage to an un-marked command vehicle parked just outside the hot zone, police speedboats or ground patrol teams can spring into action during the gang's vulnerable escape phase of the robbery, when the gunmen are crowded into one or two vehicles that can be tracked from the air, facilitating ambush by law enforcement operatives preemptively rushed towards coordinates relayed by the drone pursuing the bad guys at a height of a few hundred feet above the ground or lagoon where conflict with overhead electricity cables and cellphone antennae towers is minimized.

For the price of buying just ONE full-scale police patrol helicopter, a discerning, security-conscious government on a tight budget could wisely purchase several HUNDRED top-of-the-line UAV drones, along with the electronic gear needed to convert innocent-looking civilian 4WD trucks into clandestine mobile ground control stations that can be positioned up to a mile distant from shootouts and armed robberies, in order to inform a more effective police response to the unfolding mayhem.

With Lagos State Governor Fashola's record of bold, technically savvy and cost effective policy innovations during his illustrious tenure thus far, it should not come as a surprise if the use of drone technology is quietly adopted by the Fashola administration, then applied under a cloak of secrecy to great effect against violent daylight crime typified by occurrence in Lagos two days ago, which was the first after a 7-year lull in that genre of spectacular daylight attack.
