Missy B:
These pictures are available on the 'net.
If they didn't mind the pictures being on that particular site from which we got them, they wouldn't mind them being on NL.

Hi Missy.

Thats good enough reason for me.

Well very lovely and colourful photos.

hmmmm. any replies cos i dont seem to know myself.

Ileke-IdI:
If the kidnappers kill their victims, then yes.

If not, why should we kill them? Kidnapping is not the most offensive crime in Naija.

Looting is, those beady eyes politicians should be killed. Ko si option number 2 fun won

Whether they kill their victim or not, it is a crime that is causing wide spread panic and insecurity in the country. It threatens the existence of Nigeria and this brutality has to be countered with force it deserves.

Death penalty for kidnappers end of.

I hope you gusy have got the permission to post these pics by the celebrants

aikuda:
I am really surprised that anyone will be rejoicing that a feeble old woman is kidnapped for money under the pretext that she should have raised her son well. How do you know she did not do her best? how do you know what made him the way he is today? I am sure your mothers raised you to rojoice at other's misfortune.

That is not about punishing Sani Lulu. This is about some criminals trying to make money by whatever means. It should be condemned. Kidnapping will destroy Nigeria if we are not careful. Not that many you care because you live far away from Nigeria.

Weldone for your brilliant comments.

They all wish Nigeria to become a Somalia so they can apply for asylums in whereever they are in the west.

rokiatu:
No! if despoiler are not been killed why kidnappers?

i think you mean rapi.sts. They are as repugnant as kidnappers. I doubt if the death sentence is not an option for rapists

May God bless the first governor that passes the death penalty law

philip0906:
before they r executed won't they be arrested first?and who will do d arresting?our useless policemen who don't know what a machine gun looks like and who all delight in collecting 20 naira than protecting d populace?mind u,many policemen r now in this "lucrative' business especially in d east. . .
BTW,KIDNAPPING HAS COME 2 STAY IN NIGERIA. . .boys r angry

Both the kidnappers and the police men that aid and abet them should all be executed by hanging. They should die slowly and painfully by hanging or lethal injection.
Until a zero tolerance approach is used this menace will not stop.

If you guys use corrupt politician as justification for kidnapping then thats the most sad excuse.

@ poster

maybe you should add a poll as well

It is already a big problem. I hundred percent absolutely agree. They should be executed by hanging

For real? And what happens to Lagerbark?

Hope they wont say Siasia should work under him.

Travelista:
I am literally laughing out loud at this comment. Between the hostility and the fact that 12Large is addressing the wrong person, I've completely lost it.

Infact i dont know whether to fall down laughing as well or blow into a rage

Lie Lie. One city with the support of its government can do it. Abuja can host the Olympics. Why not, except for corruption. SA is not sooooo developed, and most of its people are poor. Yet they did the damn thang, hosted a successful World Cup

12large:
oga snowfrops e be like sey you don mental, which abuja fit host olympics, you want make hausa people kill everybody abeg shut up

Guy i would consider that an oversight.

London is hosting the next olympics but that does not mean the events are restricted to the city of London. Many other cities would be hosting various events as well.

Another important factor is infracstruture. Not only stadia, but roads, hospitals, hotels, security, constant lights and water as well as full government backing. If you cant guaranty any of these i am sorry there is no way Abuja can host an Olympics. All Africa games maybe.

pics and agent all sound too surreal

ARSENAL's player makes barca wins world cup

You can say that again. he supplied the killer pass that finished off holland.
he may well become a barca player coming season

@ aisha2

thanks for the kind gesture. I would start my letter by requesting contact information on the personal pages of all the reps on the NASS website. The iron curtain between them and the electorate needs pulling down. It should not only be during campaigns that they remember the voters.

in addition do you have an email address we should send the letter to?

Maybe poster was right.

NL is really fixated on trine.

I cant believe this thread started only yesterday has reached its 6th page.

Whereas other threads that are more poignant such as the one on a national kidney centre hardly get its deserved responses.

oisehumen:

Iniesta was not in that squad that won Nigeria 1999 please.

Thanks for the observation if that were the case.

The same cannot be said of our players. Just look at the last under 17 held in Nigeria last year, how many of our players were even 22 years, not to talk of under 17? Is a shame and is a malady. We can never make a headway in our football if things remain the way they are now.

Its the Nigerian mentality of Myopic and tunnel vision. We want to accrue all overnight, become maradonna/pele at once. Not knowing it take yrs to achieve such feat. If only the boys and administrators can be patient enough, and peak at the right times, things would improve.

Ghana seems to have realized this. It looks like they fielded genuine or a close one, under 20 team who have now matured and blossomed in the just concluded wc

@ chelseabmw

do you know the rates for constantial hotels?

A bill to build a National Kidney Center has been in the house since 2007, just passed second reading, hmmm, a lot of advocacy to our reps. Please Guys do me a favor and write to your reps concerning this bill, abeg. Thanks I will put together a catolugue and send to the chairman Commitee on Health and other members on this issue to push the issue. Lets all do our bit, sometimes, they just need a push

its a shame that [as far as i know] none of the reps. have email adddress for use by their constituensies or a website. No telephone numbers to their offices.

Surely in the 21st century you would think that is a basic minimum to facilitate communication.

Oh well, i am sure their real constituencies which are the godfathers and party thugs have direct contact to them.

Even the profile pages of the reps on the NASS website has no contact details. Shame.

tpiah:
does this site not have an owner you can talk to or what's the reason for this thread.

ask the people starting tribalistic threads, what their reasons are for doing so.

simple.

ezeagu:
Nairaland matches the situation in Nigeria well.

@ poster, i think with the above 2 posts your debate can be put to rest and swept under the carpets of oblivion.
I hope though you started this thread with good intent.

The moderators should kindly move it to the tribalism/racism section.

Ikengawo:
your overblowing my statement.
i didn't say tribalism doesn't EXIST and racism doesn't EXIST

im sayin he is the need for self preservation stronger on Nairaland.com then on any other entity in the nigeria sphere of existence.


No other forum is this tribalist, no other gathering of nigerians is this tribalist.
tribalism exists, its not a major issue in the day to day lives of nigerians and we know this, but it exists, but it THRIVES on this particular site more then anywhere in the world

i think you guys are trying to interpret my post as me saying tribalism doesn't exist, it exists, but this website is all about it, more so then any website or gathering of nigerians

No, i never for once thought you meant tribalism or racism don't exist. I was trying to draw similarity between the two which unfortunately some people failed to see and harshly dismissed.

Nairaland certainly don't hold a monopoly of tribalism. It seems you have not been spending similar times on other Nigerian forums and blogs. If you do my friend you will discover that Nairaland is no different.

In addition the cankerworm of inter-tribal wars is even more bloody in other nations than Nigeria. What would you say of the tutsis and hutus in rwanda/burundi?

Tribalism tends to yield violence when mixed with politics.

very funny. leave the poor animal alone

@ poster

initially i dint want to bother with you or similarly daft threads, hence my one line response which i thought a discerning mind with decipher.

But as expected you failed to see the analogy, and pitifully tried to defend you stance that NL is fixated with tribe.

Every human being has a fundamental basic instinct which is self preservation. People want to identify with a group, they long to belong to one, which they share external and internal attributes with. External hence identify with a race ie colour or to take it further and in Nigeria's` and other Africans` nations case tribe.

Taking issues deeper, there remain a significant and vocal minority that strives to stretch the issue of association with a group even further by asserting that their group is superior to other group which they believe are fundamentally deficient. These people may go the extra length to defend their group and/or prove their point. Vocally, physically etc.

Hence the principles of racism and tribalism are a metaphor.

And don't spread any nonsense here that tribalism is in some way restricted to Nairaland. And FALSE other Nigerian forums have the odd persons that spew tribalistic nonsense. This is a reflection of the society at large.

I hope i have made myself clear this time around, as poster and his ilk seem to value verbose responses before they see reason.

It seems you have dozens of property to sell. Abi na property bonanza. Hope they are all genuine as you claim.

HAHAHA Orishirishi.

Mother earth dey try. Different characters dey exist.

@ poster i salute o. Take care.

this is from a programme called uk border force.

I dont know what to say or believe anymore.
