I repeat, you have the right to hit the lagoon, if that's too far, any middle of a busy highway can fit in too.

SalamRushdie:
No I won't its you and Buhari that should so Nigeria can move on

You have the right to hit the lagoon.

SalamRushdie:
Animals...Everything about the Name Buhari irritates me , I just hope he came back with some sense this time because any attempt to frustrate Nigerians will send him back to the UK again

Hope he's not returning again? If he goes back to London anytime this year, I will surely join those for his resignation!

I never supported the stripping and shaming, only said legal punishment should be metted out.

Yes I wore it as underwear but that's like once or twice a year and have even given out the underwear so I no longer wear it.

Yes I broke the law by wearing it. In summary, until the law is repelled, those who wear it around are breaking the law.

MadCow1:
Let me just put it in context what your opening line meant.. I break the law (which is what you do when you wear camouflage material) but I hide to do it. And that is why I am saying you should not have to be made to hide to do something that isn't a real crime save for that ridiculous law.

Then you spoke of the Air force and Navy.. The Air force uniform is a shade of Blue and the Navy uniform is White. Like I pointed out in the first post, under that law and the way it is written and it's literal interpretation, wearing White Trousers, Air force Blue Trousers, Police Black trousers and Army Green Trousers are all illegal.

This is the legal provision to support my argument.. Sections 110 & 111 of the Nigerian Criminal Code Act, L.N. 112 of 1964, 1967 No. 27 states; “Any person who- Unlawfully wears the uniform of forces, etc. (1) not be­ing a person serving in any of the armed forces of Nigeria, wears the uniform or any part of the uni­form of such forces, or any of the armed dress having the appearance or bearing any of the regimental or other distinctive marks of such uniforms.

“(2) not being a person holding any office or authority under the Government of Nige­ria or of any part thereof, wears any uniform or distinctive badge or mark or carries any token cal­culated to convey the impression that such person holds any office or authority under the govern­ment; is guilty of an offence and is liable to imprisonment for one month, or to a fine of ten naira, unless he proves that he had the permission of the President or of the Governor of a State or wear such uniform or dress, badge or mark or to carry such token: Provided that this section shall not apply to the wearing of any uniform or dress in the course of a stage play or in any bona fide public entertainment.”

Section 111 provides, “Any person who sells or gives any uniform, or part of any dress, badge or mark, as in the last pre­ceding section mentioned, to any person who is not authorised to wear the same, is guilty of an of­fence and is liable to the penalties prescribed in the said section.”

Section 251 of the Constitution also states; Any person who, not being a person serving in any of the armed or police forces of Nigeria, wears the uniform of any of these forces, or any dress having the appearance or bearing any of the regimental or other distinc­tive marks of any such uniform, in such manner or in such circumstances as to be likely to bring contempt on that uniform, or employs any other person so to wear such uniform or dress, is guilty of a simple offence, and is liable to imprisonment for three months or to a fine of forty naira.”

Also pay attention to the fine and punishment for violating this law.. Says nothing about brutalising or stripping the person in public. So those soldiers broke the law as well. But I digress..

So basically, everybody wearing a Black trouser can be said to be wearing parts of the uniform of the Nigerian Police. Same for Green, White and Blue trousers.

Bro.. That Law is silly and needs to be redrafted. Even the fine is 40 Naira.. Shows you how old the law is. Impersonation should be the crime. Wearing camouflage material shouldnt. There is a very big difference between both. A Woman wearing an Iro and Bubba made of camouflage material can't be accused of impersonation and shouldn't.

You ask why wear it at all, I ask why Not?

You say what are people not wearing Celestial Church uniform, I say people wearing White Kaftans or Jalabia (pardon my spelling) can be argued to be doing so.. But that is of no consequence to this discussion. The problem isnt the uniform, the problem is the fabric. Stay on topic.

You say why are people not wearing Air force and Navy Uniforms, shows you don't fully appreciate the Camouflage thing because its actually a part of the uniform of the Police, Army, Air force and even the Navy. But again, it's not the uniform we are addressing, it's the general ban on the use of the fabric. Wearing the uniform of the Armed forces is impersonation, wearing a slim fitted camouflage jeans with a tee-shirt isn't. Again, there is a difference.

You talked of secondary school uniform.. A lot of people are dressed in the uniform of a secondary school somewhere in Nigeria as we speak. My secondary school wore a white shirt and Blue trousers. I know a secondary school that wore White shirt and black trousers. Should we ban that too? Or make those fabrics illegal to wear? But again let me clear something up to you, A Man wearing a White Shirt and Blue trousers is not impersonating anyone from my Alma mater. But the moment that person slaps on the BADGE of my school on the left breast pocket of that shirt, he immediately becomes an impersonator. Hope you understand it now.

On your closing argument.. That is why i am calling for the repeal and modification of that Law. And NO law has ever been changed in the history of mankind without someone willing to fight and even engage in some form of civil disobedience to achieve that.

Thanks.

Nigeria did him bad how?

KayDEAN:
BIG MAN TIN no dulling. This guy is very mature and sensible. Even after Nigeria did him bad, he loves and reps us well.


See wizkid of yesterday, claiming "I can't cook indomie"

The guy sef dey try form American accent but kolework


Two afonjas with opposite mentality

So equivalent of yansh na prick?

fuckerstard:
idiot pressing yansh everywhere, he needs slap. Why the wife no grab him pricck

Is this a courtcase? Holes everywhere in her so called witness.

CaptainGOOD:
Ur brain is paining u obviously
So those eye witness that comes to courtcase.
Always bring the video of the incindent with them?

Russians reason like Africans when it comes to raising children.

Great advise.

How is this new? Was Eve not Adam's flesh and blood?
.if the story of Adam of eve being the only people on earth then is true, then the world population increased via inbreeding right from the beginning.


@OP:
. Yeye man, I hope you are richer than Dangote after the whole mess?

whitemask:
I'm surprised he was sexually attracted to his flesh and blood.. _spits_

Does that person look like a starving person? The 3 rats are whole and not touched.

Everything inside the bowl looks whole, this is a stunt just to gather attention.

I actually heard of this but didn't know it was like this. so you can pick your region but not your state or your schoo state?

dakeskese:
haba no probs.

Actually in the past, u mostly serve outside your zone.

But a new method has bn introduced. so that the corps member can choose at will any four States from four geopolitical zones and any of them would be given to him/her.

Its now better o, sort of.

Do take care.

Don't mind the man, instead of him to build his own Nigerian arsenal, make it a world-class, monopolized the league for at least 10 years, compete with the best in Africa, then buy known names to his Nigerian club, the yeye man wants to go and add billions to his master's purse again.

You are earning your money in Nigeria/Africa but you want to go and pump billions in a foreign land.

Check out TP mazembe owned by a governor in COngo, can't the yeye dey smell man do same? TP mazembe has virtually what European clubs have, same with All haly and most clubs in south Africa.

Yeye man, I see why alot of northerners hate him!

flyca:
He should buy our local teams and grow them!
He made me his money here, from us!

Oga Dangote, "Buy made in Naija, grow Naira" mantra. Now is time to show your patriotism

Like hausa full all his southern investments abi? Is he even hausa?

Zeze06:


If he buys Arsenal na hausa go full the team, He wants to buy and kill the team....

Na sultan go dey sign players....

Even travelling from your house to work is also not safe sir. People work even as far as travelling to other states, some work in a distance city from where they live and go to work every day. NYSC is not the cause of death, normal things that kill people is what also kills corpers. Infact strange enough, she was serving in her region, her own abode, yet death came. Reason it! Death is everywhere even while eating, person fit die.

micflo28:
The roads are very bad, the idea of travelling from e.g Enugu to Maiduguri to serve is no longer safe as it was when nysc was created.

Seems it has changed or was this how it's been? Pardon my old school talk

dakeskese:
But she may not have influenced it o my bro.. lolz
The reverse is the case broda.
Almost all northerners serve in the north.

Here in the west, most corpers are yorubas too.

The only place a corper is not allowed to serve is in his/her state of origin and d state that houses his/her institution.

Apart from these, the corper can be posted to serve anywhere so far the corper chose the state in his 4states of choice.

If it were to be by counter-region system, prospective corpers would have been asked not to choose States from their region.

In fact in my tym, for the stream one, computer jux gave all of us our 4th choice... even if you are Igbo and you schooled in UNN, and your fourth choice that year was Anambra, you will be posted there.

May God help us all

Do people die because they are serving? Should we scrap churches too since people now die in churches either via gunshots or church collapse?

micflo28:
Our mumu don do, Scrap Nysc since it doesn't guarantee a handful of graduates employment coupled with the fact that the peanut they pay can't even sustain the poor corps members taken far away from their homes. Now they have come with Npower to make the poor poorer while their kids get jobs in CBN, nnpc, shell, chevron, NPA, FIRS. Youths, let's wisen up.

Amen, even if she claimed to be from Adamawa, she schooled in the east so that rules out the chances of serving in the east without influencing it unless if she was married and had to redeploy or have some health issues that qualifies for exemption.

dakeskese:
You raised very valid points broda.

But for the service, she can serve anywhere in Nigeria without paying officials as long as it is not her state of origin( the one on paper cus she can still be Igbo and be claiming Adamawa) and the state were she schooled.

I guess for the hospital transfer to PH, I think some hospitals have certain specialists on certain areas. May be her condition could best be managed in that hospital.

In all, let fate have its way. It's all planed dat way even before her birth.

May God help us all, Amen.

Self defence? Someone with 15 years nanny experience and without a child doesn't have any future goals than to die a nanny.

RIP to her, sometimes we should allow fate to have its way.

She must have worked herself back to the east to serve since she schooled in the east, she's not expected to also serve in the east and also having come from the east.

May God not let us take the wrong steps by trying to change or influence fate.

RIP once again.

But how come she had to be moved to an hospital in Rivers state, no hospital in imo or Enugu or is river state closer than other states within SE?

I wear underwear camo and have never been manhandled but I don't make it visible because I respect the law. I am not for the stripping but I think an official punishment should be attached to this offense until we are ripe enough to allow it. Those who commit crime with it not just wear the full uniform, some do with just the shirt, some with just the trouser. Why wear it at all? Why are people not wearing cele uniform? Why aren't people wearing police uniform for fashion? Why aren't they wearing airforce or naval uniform for fashion? Infact why are people not wearing secondary school uniforms for fashion? Most wear camo to want to fly the 'military' swag. Don't wear it, its a law, until its repelled, don't!

MadCow1:
Yeah.. I think you still don't get the point. The camouflage in itself is what should be decriminalized. Right now you can't wear a Camouflage underwear and not get in trouble.. Wearing a Camouflage to commit crimes means the person impersonated a soldier. Meaning the person dressed up like a soldier. But if you are wearing a Camouflage Suit or camouflage Kaftan for example or a Camouflage T-shirt with a Big Mickey Mouse Picture on the front Of pink neck bands and sleeve cuffs, that is not a military issue camouflage and should not be an offence.

If a person impersonates (passes themselves off as) an officer, that is one thing (You don't even need to be dressed in camouflage to impersonate an officer). If a person is just dressed in some type of camouflage pants that has no semblance to an Army uniform, that's a different thing.

Think of This.. The People being caught impersonating Army Officers today were not caught wearing designer camouflage clothes, they were caught dressed up as proper actual soldiers complete with boots and even guns in some cases.

You can say that again.

Daeylar:
Their usual

Why does he look like he wants to cry

You dey see so?

flyca:
He really looks happy.
HML to them

You know how many crimes have been committed in the country by camo wearing humans? If everyone is allowed to wear it, won't it be extremely dangerous in a country where its hard to find out people's Identities on time? Except you don't mind the security repercussions, then fine let everyone start wearing it. By the time the chicken comes home to roast, una eyes go clear.

MadCow1:
Should everybody with a gun join the Army? Should everyone with a Black Beret join the Police? You do know that the camouflage also has civilian application too right? It can be a tool like for the hunter in the Bush, it can be a fashion statement as well.

The job of the camouflage is to conceal and bland in making a person or thing less visible. It takes more than camouflage to be a military officer.

Those who wan wear camo should go and join military na abi fight dey there?

MadCow1:
Why is this Camouflage thing still a Law in this Nation? How is this considered appropriate in a nation of civilised people?


I have seen photos of Senator Dino wearing a Camouflage and Governor Fayose wearing camouflage and nobody harassed them. Why is it okay for the people in Government positions to break the law and the citizens can't? I remember that even during the Military regimes, driving an Army Green car irrespective of the make was grounds for harassment. Isn't that just foolish?

The law states that wearing any part of the uniform of an officer (Military or Para-military) is an offence. So technically wearing a black trouser can be taken to be wearing a police uniform. Or wearing a Navy blue trouser taken as wearing part of the uniform of the Air force. Same for White trousers and the Navy.

I really hate when these Biafran Agitators refer to Nigeria as a Zoo but when shiit like this is still happening, one can't help but see their point.

Simply make impersonation a crime and leave it at that. Anything beyond that is foolishness.

See as you fall your own hand, like say you even know which SE they are talking about.

jakD:
So, the super eagle couldn't play against any country team other than their own country local team? I don't even remember the last time I watched their match.

Sorry can't see the message you sent me.

Raphael007:
Matic deal done
16.05: Manchester United have confirmed Nemanja Matic has joined from Chelsea on a three-year deal.

"I am delighted to have joined Manchester United. To work with Jose Mourinho once again was an opportunity I couldn’t turn down," Matic said.

"I have enjoyed my time at Chelsea and would like to thank the club and the fans for their support. I cannot wait to meet my new team-mates and to start training with them.

"This is a very exciting time for the club and I am looking forward to playing my part in creating more history for this great club."

Corrupt nation.

Corrupt in every spheres yet carry religion put for head.

Some armed robbers are happy with what they do and they will soon come and visit someone you know soon, maybe then and then would some negative things going on in this country become "some of your business"

I dont care is why Nigeria is the way it is today.

girlhaley:
Is she happy with what she's doing?


If she is.... Then, it's none of my business

Is this even possible?

Has the national assembly passed it into law in the first place? have they gone to lobby the national assembly to pass it into law before this move?
