"The outfit set up to collect taxes is the Inland Revenue Services (LIRS,) Alpha Beta only help us to verify all documents issued by the LIRS; it helped us to issue electronic tax clearance. If it helped us to generate this huge money, I just felt it is fair to appreciate the firm with the controversial 15 per cent."

She choose her fate,she shld deal with it squarely.Im guessing she spilled because she DID not get the promised contract.

What I dont understand is that I have never seen any hausa person boasting about how they 'kicked igbo asss' in the war.

Why is it only yoruba people doing it?

joeyfire:
When i hear and read young Nigerians label the Nzeogwu coup as an Igbo coup, I realise how effective well the mis-education of our youth has been. Foreigners like Max Siollun have analysed the events from Jan 1966 but you log on to NL and see people still showing their stupidity like a flag . Truth be told, if the young people cannot grow a brain for themselves then the world's prediction of this country becoming a failed state is just inevitable.

The gun used for the operation was supplied by an IBO MAN CALLED IRABOR, so the story continues.

Nigerians never fail to amaze me, look at the comments on this thread. It is very true that "a people deserves the kind of leaders they get" Look at Buhari, a tried and tested leader with 0 tolerance for corruption, look at his record when he was PTF chairman, look at the development that took place across Nigeria. Yet, people keep talking about him being a "jihadist" you guys will forever avoid substance and digress into meaningless sentiment that is of no benefit to your collective well being.
GEJ is a proven incompetent and corrupt leader and has no capacity nor will to move this country forward. He has shown he is in with the business as usual crowd. Yet you want to vote for him on the basis of sentiment. Nigerians deserve the leaders they have, you're a useless people incapable of anything productive. your fortay is division! you're simply divisive, i suppose its in your nature. You clearly have more credible people and you know fully well that corruption is Nigeria's problem yet you're ok with corrupt leaders as long as they're from your part of the country. Im going to burn my nigerian passport tonight. Nigerians disgust me.

KokoBeware:
soo freaking sad,  if people were not around the Police would have said they killed armed robbers trying to rob the bank just imagine what the so called PPRO had to say about it,

ROSSIKE:
I don't see any Nigerian setting himself on fire for any reason.

There is a very ancient African philosophy which holds that were there is life, there is hope.

That life itself is hope.

This philosophy lies deep in the heart of every African soul.

This is why it will be exceedingly difficult to come across an African ready to set himself alight for economic reasons.

It is safe to conclude that Nigeria is where she is today because the majority of Nigerians either cannot think/act properly or refuse to think/act properly.

Your fears are not unfounded. After the government-backed pogroms aimed at Igbos circa 1966, instances of bands of marauding murderers rummaging through the vast expanse of Northern Nigeria has become a mainstay of "modern" Nigeria. The thousands of instances from Jos, Kano, Bauchi, Gombe, Maiduguri, Kaduna, etc., have affected just about very Southern ethnic group, including Yorubas and Igbos.

As long as Nigerians refuse to condemn the massacre of Igbos and many Southerners in pre-Biafran War Nigeria, the targeted killings of specific groups will remain a staple topic of social upheavals in Northern Nigeria.

You are entitled to your own opinions. But Muslims will NEVER be dictated to by you or by anyone Why do you think you can sit in judgement and dictate conditions?

Please can you tell me christian jurisprudence to enable us see if it is barbaric or not.
Tell me the portions of the Bible that have been completely ignored so that we can determine what is left of christianity or get a new name for it so that at least all the pretensions to being followers of christ can be laid to rest

Why do your type always think women are forced to do what they do in Islam. Are you saying even in the US, somehow these women cannot resist this "imposition".
Do you know that some girls (even in Nigeria) cover their faces in school but don't at home because their parents do not want them to
When will you defend the rights of these women to cover their face
Is it really freedom or democratic for a woman who wants to appear unclothed in some beaches in Europe to be able to but those who want to cover their bodies are not allowed to as in France
Why do you not believe that those who appear in adult films are forced while assuming those who cover their bodies are?

How many muslim neighbours of yours have you had cause to call to order because they always resolve issues by violence?
A lot of people talk about some muslims based on poisoned opinions while totally ignoring that muslim they see at work or in the neighbourhood everyday

RichyBlacK:
Well, I don't believe every Muslim thinks that way. I have Muslim friends and I know some that have attended "Save Darfur" protests and marches. I have a close friend from Egypt, a Muslim, who sees nothing good in Mubarak's stranglehold of Egyptian politics.

However, I understand where you're coming from. Sometimes Muslims are slow to criticize their corrupt governments and even slower to openly condemn undisputed acts of barbarism by extremists within Islam. This, I think, is as a result of a two-pronged fear:

1. Fear of being harmed, especially for those residing in oppressive states
2. Fear of making fellow members of the Ummah look bad in the eyes of outsiders.

Over the last 50 years, extremism has taken a lethal blow, and it is becoming less popular. I firmly believe that the future of our planet has no place for extremists, of any religion. And slowly, but surely, those Muslims who believe that the world must bow to their own interpretation of Islam would be locked in a perpetual state of backwardness.

Any student of history, would realize that even Christianity passed through a similar phase in the so-called Dark Ages. Extremist views were the norm rather than the exception. Without much external forces, the demons of extremism imploded from within, as people just got tired of the lunacy. Today, extremists in Islam have to battle two losing fronts: the moderates in Islam and the non-Muslims. Today, we are seeing the waning of extremist views in countries like Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Kuwait and Jordan. This will only continue and, hopefully, bolster the size of the moderates in Islam. On the non-Muslim side, there are at least six fronts:

1. The Russian front (on alert from lessons in Afghanistan and Chechnya; watching neighboring Muslim states closely)
2. The Chinese front (the Communist Party has very low tolerance for any form of extremism; not much extremists can do here)
3. The Indian front (have been on alert for at least 60 years; acts of barbarism within India has heightened vigilance; tension between extremist Muslims and extremist Hindus have effectively checkmated any ambitions of extremists on either side)
4. The European front (rising Muslim population; gradual integration of Muslims in Europe will increase the population of moderates in Islam)
5. The American front (on alert since the mid-90s; monitoring several extremist groups across the globe; most intimidating front to all extremists in Islam; choicest target for all extremists in Islam)
6. The African front (with several flash points in Sudan, Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania and Nigeria, many non-Muslims and moderates in Islam are ready to subdue extremists in Africa; most significant extremist-engineered crisis is that of Darfur; increased literacy and enhanced poverty alleviation programs will help decrease the influence of extremists)

Given all these fronts, the increased cooperation among key players on these fronts, and all the events that have triggered vigilance and heightened preparedness, I dare say that there is no future for the extremists in Islam! And to all who want peace on earth, that is a very good thing!

Andre Uweh:
Am happy you know that it is a contest between GEJ and Buhari.
Atiku stands  no chance.

Katsumoto:
Mercenaries such as Carl Gustav von Rosen (and other swedes) fighting for Biafra flew missions to Lagos to drop bombs. Also, bombs were exploded in cinemas. There were usually fatal casualities. I will try to find a reference for you later.
