 Politics › Re: Boko Haram: Things’ll Change By Next Month — Jonathan by Rawani: 5:40am On Sep 19, 2014*. Modified: 10:09am On Sep 19, 2014 |
You cannot defend your house from your bedroom. Those who win wars go to the field or at least, encourage their troops by visiting them and not sit in Presidential villas like a teenage coward and drinking themselves to stupor. All these weak distractions won't fly, what we are interested in is the true destination of the illegal weapons bought suspiciously, and the investigation of all those indicted in various revelations. This is a more realistic way of predicting the end of Boko Haram, and not random Bombay vodka induced pronouncements of victory when nothing has changed in strategy or operations. 3 Likes |

chinasaekperem3: We better join hands with you abok1s rather than the yorubas, is not as if you people are not stvpid anyway, but you can be trusted in a partnership. Nobody wants to join hands with rapists and cannibals. If you were worthy compatriots and not cowards, Arewa would have asked for your help ages ago. You are a conquered tribe and only have a voice because of the almajiri's in the NE that have been formenting crisis since the days of Maitatsine. I would advise this your congregation of strange bedfellows to remain on your side of the Niger as you have neither been invited, nor do you possess any capacity to make any difference in war, as evidenced by your vanquished status. |

EUROBOMBER: You leave adekunle out of this. IBB also fought the civil war alongside adekunle but was at the heat of battle struggling it out with Biafran soldiers whereas the wicked adekunle specialised in killing innocent women and children.Oh yeah the difference as stated by you is clear. However the crux of the matter was your brag that igbos are forgiving that's why they support any govt in power, to the extent of Ojukwu giving IBB an Ibo name, Okechukwu. You even promised to name Buhari 'Nnamdi' if he wins next year. So I asked if this legendary spirit of forgiveness would be extended to Black Scorpion since you claimed your capacity for forgiveness is unequalled. Was it just empty chestbeating? Or can you forgive Gen. Adekunle? |

| Politics › Re: My Opinion On The Scottish Independence Referendum by Rawani: 1:21pm On Sep 18, 2014 |
The comforting factor is that regardless of the result of this referendum, Scotland leaves the table with more powers and more control over it's nationhood. All the scare mongering by Gordon Brown and co. does little to dampen the resolve of the people to shed their minority status in the UK and take responsibility for their own affairs with the confidence that the people living in Scotland know whats best for Scotland. It will be difficult to find a Scot who 100% wants to leave the UK, I asked my boiler technician today who's Scottish where his allegiance lies, and he seemed indifferent but mentioned that he would love to have a government that he voted for. Change, even from worse to better, is not without inconvenience. |

I feel insulted everytime i hear SAS dissociate himself from BH. This man is the root, leaves and flowers of BH and has been given a hiding place by the PDP. Every revelation about BH sponsors has indicted this man, he is taking solace in the fact that since Nigerians have decided to put Ihejirika's indictment in a corner, he as a co-accused has also been let off the hook. Ali-modu Sheriff was actually indicted by a presidential investigative panel of enquiry into the problem of insurgency in North East Nigeria, yet he is hob-nobbing with the President and claiming innocence within the PDP while casting aspersions on the APC. Anyway the complicity of the FG in the recent illegal arms deal can give us a rational explanation of why SAS suddenly feels at home with the PDP. http://dailypost.ng/2014/09/05/boko-haram-falana-wants-ali-modu-sheriff-prosecuted-fg-panel-report-issues-ultimatum/ 1 Like |

Gbawe2: Absolutely. Anyone who believes the "human rights abuse" lies is a fool not willing to utilise the numerous of historical evidence that shows the USA is ready to side with anything and anyone that helps the nation further her interest and crush perceived dangerous enemies. Did the USA not aid rebels, accused or serious violations of human rights and extra-judicial executions, in the effort to get rid of Muammer Gaddafi?My consolation lies in the hope that the the US will be provoked to respond to this audacious allegation by the Nigerian government, and might in the process reveal vital information clarifying the intended purpose of those weapons.

I remember when a huge shipment of arms were intercepted at Apapa Port some years ago. The importers were never unraveled, no-one was punished and the final destination of the arms remains a mystery, this can ONLY be done with the collusion of the government. Two months later, BH started using rocket-launchers to attack military barracks. The question then arises about the source of BH arms, since the FG has said the US is policing arms sales, and we know for sure BH arms are not only the ones seized from the barracks as our soldiers have complained of their superior fire-power. The government seems to have been caught red-handed in trying to change their import method after their failure the first time, and has ended up in hotter oil. 12 Likes |

So the ONLY justification they had was that the arms deal was struck because of 'Urgent Security Concerns'.

helpee: You still don't get it. Making a wire transfer is faster but arms is not always available simply because you have cash. There are procedures and once the transfer is traceable then you must follow procedures. Have u ever heard of black market? You don't use bank for such transaction in security settings. The seller is probably the one that made request for cash so their govt may not know they are selling such. Look the possibilities are endless. The crime the FG committed is that they got caught so they deserve all the bashing they get but suggesting that it was meant to sponsor boko haram is a no no no !You have not made any sense, all i see is you shooting in different directions hoping to hit any target.

Your two scenarios lack logic and are dead on arrival. 1. Is it faster to make a purchase through wire transfer or cash? If the act was neccessitated by urgency, the arms could have been ordered on phone or electronically and money transferred to the dealers account in a fraction of a minute, instead of chartering a plane, getting unused brand new bills, packing them into suitcases, co-ordinating logistics and flying hours to SA, when it's obvious $10m worth of arms can't fit on a plane, so whats the use? which is faster and more efficient? 2. Nigeria is a signatory to several international groups such as the AU, UN etc. and the only way we can be refused sale of weapons is if we are sanctioned by these organizations from being sold arms, or if we are trying to purchase arms from a country or organization that is apologetic to the cause of Nigeria's enemies. Both of these scenarios are not the case so your assertions hold no water. There are actually two main reasons people engage in these type of transactions with CASH instead of bank transfer: 1. Money Laundering - this is basically a way of transforming proceeds from a crime like looting into legitimate money or assets (in this case). However the government who is the client here has other means of hiding looted funds; if they could hide $20b, whats $10m? This is not the only reason they chose to use cash. 2. Eliminating the Paper Trail - All bank transactions leave a trail of documents which could attract attention or be used in investigations against a criminal. Using cash reduces this paper trail to the barest minimum as the transaction becomes simple 'cash and carry'. While this might look like the most likely scenario in this case, the government is actually more sinister. The FG despite its characteristic failure in almost all sectors, seems to have managed to develop an efficient hybrid of the above two scenarios. A self-sustaining evil system that can go undetected to the untrained eye. The government's actions in this case, while being able to launder stolen money from the defence budget - transforming stolen funds to weapons in the name of the FG, then diverting these weapons to arm BH, who then unleash even more deadly attacks where our military assets are siezed which then triggers the need for an increased defence budget which is then looted and used to buy more arms for BH. This vicious cycle repeats itself again and again, netting billions for FG's criminals and leaving Nigerians none the wiser. All these are done while eliminating the paper trail, which is why i said the FG developed a ruggedly efficient hybrid of the two scenario's. Evil however, always has a way of consuming itself.
