Finally, something mighty US can learn from Nigeria.

Afraid of serial loser? That must be in alternate world!

@Op,

One can completely independent; there is always challenges and struggles.

That said, I believe google could have used better graphics combination to represent us.

Nigeria is not just about struggles, there are successes stories and triumphs. A fair representations will should depict both. Else, a simply congratulation using classic symbols, or they shouldn't have bothered at all.

MisterLongman: Over-confidence

There is no competition, can't you see it?

Baring any seismic shift, GEJ is on his way to second term, and he will win it. Nuff said!

Basically, this guy (Buhari) setup a committee to study how to win election? I fitn't laff.

Let's assume he wins, are we expecting a committee of every facet of Nigeria problems? Security, power, road, food security, transportation, health, etc etc!

Well, if Buhari doesn't know by now how to win election, I doubt he knows anything about governance. I suggest he go and contest for council chairmanship in his local government, at least winning such will give him an idea or two on how to win election.

iamord: Lovely post.. They seem so relaxed. Are u ghanaian?

Quite relaxed. No please, I am full-blooded Igboman.

If it's the law of Ghana, Nigeria traders must respect it, or find a way to get it abolished. Either that or they pack their bags and luggage and leave. No need moaning or crying.

But that said, the business attitude of some Ghanaian retailers and artisans that I have personally encountered leaves much to be desired. Some of them will not sell to you if you come too early (before they finish arranging their stuff) to or quite late (when they are closing their shop). And some of their artisans will not do your work if they have funerals of their friend's grandfather to attend. Such attitude creates opportunity for more aggressive competitors usually foreigners!

kobonaire: Bros, don't mind the silly twerp. He is the undisputed cretinous fücktârd of NL ..... he was once a mod, but NL had to strip him of that privilege because his fûcktardism was just excessive and obvious.

I see now where his frustration is coming from. Must really suck to be him.

Subscribing...

Sagamite: I don't need to meet you before I know you are a paid person selling your future.

Just take a look at yourself, and your post history.

'person' and 'cretinous' that's all you know to say, and will ever say. That speaks volume of you really - a lost cause!

No need to say more.

ThundrCork: Second picture is fake(photoshoped). No hair on chest as seen in the first picture

I'll go with this.

Jmain: You are famous for being consistently silly . .I get you drift . . . .

You badt gann!

egift: You are welcome my brother. Now face front before I do something irreversible

So you agree with him to the point of thanking him? Are you sure you comprehend?

waternogetenemy: Shekau is dead. The bump only appears to have moved because becos the right side of the head is swollen. It is him alright!

I am sure our Army Forces medical team can arrive at same conclusion, after an autopsy, and perhaps share same with us. Until then, maintaining our skepticism and with it our vigilance, is the best way to play this news, to avoid surprises!

We don't want an old man, who truncated democracy to become a champion of it. Beside, he lacks fresh ideas.

Team #Fresh Air!

barcanista: You don't have to be spamming the thread with your so-called observation. Simple, create a thread or do whatever in a related thread. You keep derailing every shekau related threads with your so-called observation that is even flawed

You don't tell me what to do! If I'm spamming, it's for the MODs to decide and take appropriate action. You, my friend, are still a learner! Consider this my last courtesy to your pestering musing.

I have little patience for vacuous stalkers!

I arrived at a similar conclusion yesterday.

All I want is for our gallant soldiers to screen all the boko haram bastards they have in their custody whether dead or alive and eliminate all the doubts. Shekau has caused great pain, and misery to several families, if he's dead, he must truly die!

barcanista: you have been saying the same rubbish from thread to thread of which I have engaged you on one occasion. You don't need to spam the whole threads on this forum with your "thomas'" doubt.
It is not everytime you criticise and find fault where there is none.

You must be a learner here to even postulate that I criticize everytime. Do you even know the difference between criticizing and pointing out things that need further clarification.

So in your mind, our gallant soldiers should rule out the possibility of another shekau double, and perhaps let this fake* Shekau sell us a dummy? Is that your idea of patriotism and support for our soldiers?

It's seems you have little or no idea of what subterfuge and cloak and dagger is. Get real, guy!

barcanista: this guy is going insane

Why don't you follow the thread and make your input, why do you like throwing insult like a vacuous individual?

omenka: Your analysis makes a lot of sense!!
All we can do now is just hope he's the one and that some sorta incident led to the "relocation" of the lump.

That's my wish and prayer.

I would very much hate it for this mofo to molest/kill anyone again, least of all our little girls. Our gallant soldiers must find a way to get his other commanders in captivity to independently and genuinely confirm their finding. I couldn't really care if the lump by some freak means find its to his manhood, but we must erase all doubt that we got our man! He must not slip away!!

Timzy234: But seriously, you study math for uni?

Lol, are you profiling me?

vacanci: have u not noticed that the forehead may have been hit by flat heavy object and it moved the skull/tissues to the other side thereby shifting the lump. take a look at the head again from the side and you will see that it was skewed, probably a serious collision on an object while trying to escape death.

I have taken a closer look at skull, and indeed there appear to be a sort of depression at the left side of his head/skull. But I really doubt that's enough to cause the very centralised lump to shift, without a compensating shifting in other area.

OLADD: [color=#006600][/color]

You might be right about the location of the lump, but as regards its size, dead bodies get bigger. Whatever is the case, the fact that his subordinates are surrendering in droves rings a bell.

I think they are surrendering either because Shekau is dead, or has gone missing, and their succession plan is in disarray. But we mustn't rush to conclude. A mope up operation of large scale is necessary at this point in order to round up fleeing terrorist and disrupt any possible regrouping.

zonax: Truth is that the original Shekau was killed sometime ago, but in order to keep their activities going, this guy took up/impersonated him so as to create this god-like figure of the man and have the foot soldiers believe they are invincible

That I know. But the fake shekua's, the impostor, death is what is being discussed here.

kenex4ever: Scientist! Don't u know dat when pipu die after some hours dia skin become soft and bone stiff, may be dey layed him on d ground such dat his forehead was in contact with d ground thereby causing d coagulated blood there to shift. My opinion. Ok may b na photoshop?

It's called rigour mortis. It is usually caused by changes in chemical in the muscles, causing the limbs to be stiff and difficult to move/bend. It has little or nothing to do with the bones.

In any case though, a possible heavy impact on his head, to the left, might have shifted the configuration of his lump. But the crux of my argument is that further due diligence need to be conducted on all the captured/killed boko haram dastard bastards. It won't be funny if the real fake* Shekau manages to slip away from our fingers in the fog of war. Every dead/living boko haram member in their custody must be intensely scrutinized. If they have DNA samples of the Shekaus, they must use it!

Further more, our gallant soldiers should leave no stone unturned, and must quickly march to Sambissa forest to complete the task. The only good terrorist is dead one!

fake* Shekau because I strongly believe the real shekua died last year, as a result of raid conducted by our gallant soldiers!

Jmain: Who knows if decomposition played a major part on his swollen physique. Dude was lounging in his captured mowag and couldn't careless about his dressing . .

Am pretty sure, this is his usual simple manner of dressing, while the Military fatique is to show off in his videos . . .

I strongly believe that is the clownish Shekau who often behaved like one with a lethal dose of hard drugs in his system . . .

Fake Shekau don Kpai, That's all . . . .

I wish I could agree with you. I want the mofo dead like dodo. But these inconsistency, leaves a growing doubt in my mind.

Firefire: Maybe his head have been marched ??

His head looks ok to me. Not even a scratch on it.

Well I wish him dead, very dead. I will be sad to see him oppress little girls and women again, cos that all the coward was good at. Our military must be sure they got their man, I'm not so confident seeing these things.

urhoboman: how do u knw? Have u seen him facially? It looks like him, check the figure of his mouth in the first pics, they are thesame.

In other not to repeat my self, I just copy what I posted in a similar thread:

PointB: For what is worth, the position of the lump on the forehead in each of the two pictures are not exactly the same.

The lump on the 'life' Shekau is directly on the center of his forehead. You can actually draw a line from his nose-bridge up and bisect the lump into to equal halves. The lump on on the 'dead' Shekau tilts a little to his right. Attempt to draw a bisecting line from his nose-bridge across his forehead at best only slightly slice the lump, that is if it not a tangent.

Blenvado: My brother i felt the same way too but could it be a coincidence that they both have such striking semblance even a lump on their forehead?

You could be looking at a double!

donphilopus: I never knew you were this good o. You have a point though. Maybe we should blame that on the camera because they would have investigated and scrutinized the picture and his remains before breaking it to the public that he's dead!

My argument is built on the lump. Every other features seems to match, but the lump. And it has nothing to do with the camera angle. The lumps are not right. The dead Shekua even appears to have a bigger lump, even as it is tilted to the right!

Blenvado: My brother i felt the same way too but could it be a coincidence that they both have such striking semblance even a lump on their forehead?

Refer to my initial comment on the lump. The lumps are different on the two photos. I wish Shekau dead, but I am not convinced the son-of-bit/ch is dead!
