Politics › Re: Court Orders That Alleged Nyanya Bombers Be Tried In Camera by signz: 9:10pm On Mar 17, 2015
bushdoc9919:
In camera(that's latin for means simply that the trial will be held in secret. No journalists, and most definetly NO CAMERAS.

From Wikipedia

[size=18pt]In camera (/ɪŋˈkæmᵊrə/; Latin: "in a chamber"wink[1] is a legal term that means in private.[2] The same meaning is sometimes expressed in the English equivalent: in chambers.

Generally, in-camera describes court cases, parts of it, or process where the public and press are not allowed to observe the procedure or process.[2] In-camera is the opposite of trial in open court where all parties and witnesses testify in a public courtroom, and attorneys publicly present their arguments to the trier of fact.

Entire cases may be heard in-camera when, for example, matters of national security are involved. In-camera review by a Judge may be used during otherwise open trials—for example, to protect trade secrets or where one party asserts privilege (such as attorney–client privileged communications). This lets the judge review documents in private to determine if revelation of documents in open court will be allowed.[/size]

I don't support this judgement. What's wrong with the judgehuh

The informants will be unmasked and that will also put in jeopardy the lives of the investigating officer and his family members.

I think I have lost count of how much of Abachas stolen money that have been returned. Maybe the man stole over a billion dollars.

My question is how much was a barrel of oil when Abacha was HOS?

Politics › Re: The Politics Of Ika And Ndigbo : Unearthing Facts by signz: 6:44am On Mar 17, 2015
internetpirate:
@MayorofLagos, let me first commend your objectivity and clarity of thought; your example was very apt! I am a mixed Igbo (of Marghi and Oron heritage too) and I grew up in the north, consequently I am still learning the Igbo language, but I speak my Ohafia dialect fairly well.

Do you know why I mentioned my heritage? Do you know my greatest consternation?: When I see people who are Igbo through and through denying their heritage for a mess of porridge! I am not tribalistic (I am married to an Ijaw person), so I personally don't care where an individual is from (my family is too mixed to have the luxury of discrimination), but I personally detest petty and barefaced lies, crudely crafted to revise history.

My irritation may have shown in the statement you highlighted (when you see supposedly educated people taking positions that defy logic, its hard to keep a poker face), but what I actually meant is that from his literature, he tried to suggest that Ikas "worked" for the Binis, and had no relationship with Igbos other than trade!! The strongest store of history is the language! A yoruba man is defined by his language, and the different subsets of yorubas are delineated by dialectical differences that enshrine their individuality (in the midst of communal bonds), and reflect the environmental influences around them. Consequently, yorubas at the fringes (e.g. Ilorin, Kabba,some parts of Ondo) would speak yoruba that is differentiated from the mainstream! Yet their being yorubas is not in doubt!!!

Like you said, the Ika claim is at best dubious, and at worst, very annoying when you consider that one of the majors that took the Igbos into infamy was an Ika...and two others were Anioma!!!! How annoying and wretched can an argument be??

As per the issues of custom and discrimination, you'd be amazed to find that the issue is highlighted out of proportion! In my own neck of the woods, there is nothing like Osu! Its mainly a custom found in some parts of Igbo land! My own people are matrilineal while other Igbos 9and Ikas/Aniomas) are patrilineal!! There is no "Chi" of any type (whether chukwu, chineke, chukwuabiama etc) in my place- God is " Obasi"!! My cuisine is not of Igbo extraction (like Ikas have) but rather of Ibibio/Efik extraction! Yet, I am incontrovertibly Igbo...I can't use my differences to pretend an identity different from Igbos in order to escape the societal stigma!

Moreso, my good MayorofLagos, nobody can offer the other freedom; true freedom is found in the quality of your ideals and world view. You can be in a jail, yet be very free...No one can repress the soul that is thirsty for rebirth and growth. That is how I see the true Igbo spirit- a quest for recharting a great future!
I am owing you 10 cartons of Hero beer.

Thank you sir

To God be the glory.

Once BH is decimated, General Minimah and IGP should focus on foriegn mercenaries who masquerade as Fulani herdsmen. Going by their area of operation ranging from Benue - Kogi - Plateau - Southern Kaduna - Taraba and now slowly spreading to the east, we may be dealing with over 10000 fighters armed with AK 47.

The battle must now move to the middle belt.

Kelklein:
"The New York Times, one of the greatest and most
influential institutions in the world, has described
President Jonathan as a lousy president. Christiane
Amanpour described Jonathan as a failed head of
state. The Economists magazine described the
Jonathan government as a failed regime. General
Theophilus Danjuma says Jonathan is rewarding
crime and encouraging more people to go into it.
Senator McCain says Jonathan’s government is
practically not existing and therefore America
should just help Nigeria. Hilary Clinton says
Jonathan is running a government that is
supervising the siphoning of Nigeria’s resources.
This is the verdict of the world and there is no hope
again for President Jonathan and PDP in 2015".
Share share share to all Nigerians... Lets pray well
for d betterment of our dear country..
CNN, Bloomberg, World bank have also said good things about how our economy has been/is growing under Gej. wink

kaboninc:
What then is your point?

In 2007 - 2010 especially late 2008 to early 2009, thw world was knocked into a financial mess and our very own Soludo messed up big time. Within that same period, the price of crude oil also drop to a low of close to $38 per barrel. And it stayed down for a long time. What happened, 8 banks were exposed, Capital Market crashed, inflation went up.

Today, the world is still recovering from that financial mess but still new discovery in Shale Oil exploration led to crude oil prices to fall and fall as low as $40 per barrel. However, there is still no single bank to be declared bankrupt, the market only slumped but still active, inflation still single digit and rising by 0.1 basis point as at January 2015, import bill reduced especially on rice because we now produce rice. Yet roads are being built, railways constructed, trains bought, power plants built, universities built, salaries increased, Army equipped, airports remodelled!

Does this not tell you that someone is working?

Amaju Pinnick should be commended. This is a very good initiative. The courses about match reading and back room is one of the things local coaches need.

Please this shouldn't be the last. We need to ask other coaches like Sir Alex, Fabio Capello, Hiddink, etc to come teach our coaches a thing or two.
