Kim Jong-nam’s death has astonished the world. The 45-year-old brother of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un was about to board a flight to Macau, where he lives in exile, when he was assassinated at Kuala Lumpur International Airport. His murder has made international headlines - particularly because of the circumstances behind it. Kim is said to have been assassinated by poison, reportedly the deadly toxin ricin. It was most famously used to kill Bulgarian dissident Georgi Markov, who had a ricin-filled pellet fired into the back of his thigh on London's Waterloo Bridge in 1978. He died four days later, when the poison stopped the normal growth and repair process in his cells. Already two women have been arrested in connection with Kim Jong-nam's death, one in her twenties. "One of the girls was told to hold a handkerchief on the face of the victim after he'd been sprayed by the other girl," an unnamed senior police officer told The Telegraph. "She held it there for 10 seconds. She said she thought spraying him had been a 'prank'." The reports have fuelled suspicion that Kim was killed by two female secret agents. As yet these claims are unfounded, but if true, it would not be the first time that female spies have made global news for their crimes CAPSLOCKED UndauntedYOCA doggedfighter Dominique LordReed buddatum dyt hopefullandlord Bojack Xmuslim savagethe21st puvo palehair Well Here are six female assassins, whose actions have resulted in death, terrorism and mass murder.

SukaBlyat:If the urge is there already there is nothing to little you can do about it than going with the urge , just be clean and make sure it's consensual. |
The only way we can move forward is to acknowledge these killings happened , and we should not make it happen again , let's blame it on past ignorance , let's live and let live . |
Hmm , good work to the bounty hunters . There should be open investigations from the NPF to the public Let's know how they operate , when they operate their M.O , This are very important things for citizens to know , doing backdoor investigations and only telling the public when they escape is last century policing. |

Our Protagonist blacks out like any other day and wakes up in a fairly swampy area they call finwa (lefenwa,Ogun State ) , our Protagonist is in fact a black male , heavily built , wide chest span , big eyes, big feet and hands and yes he was an Angel , well a fallen Angel , our Protagonist is an Atheist, he himself has not seen God, but yet Angels go to war countless times over and over again ,even now there is war , but still no God in been on for millinials non-stop. Our Protagonist has had it and decides to do what no Angel had done before .... Fall . Now we should know our Protagonist now has no memory of who he is or how he was , although his unnaturally huge figure would easily give him out an non human , the Muscles of his face were so thick it gave his face a chiseled and straightened Mean look , well sculptured and firm his teeth were in his gum , his throat and neck were as thick as a relaxed python, his arms were no exception , his 12ft dark wings spanned across the river spreading to the bank He definitely did not feel human , as villagers mostly fishermen take their boats to get a glance at this Creature that fell sky from the sky ,it should be noted the name of our Protagonist at this point by the villagers was Satani . ...update by evening |

5. The Kaduna Sharia Riots: (Death Toll: 2000 - 5000) By now, you may have noticed that ethnic and religious tensions have been the catalysts for some of the deadliest mass killings in Nigerian history so why pride yourself in your religion or tribe , there's no superior bloodline nor tribe . ![]() The 2000 Kaduna Riots were instigated by the introduction of Sharia law, and among many such instances, they will go down in a dark place in Nigerian history. Kaduna State is located in the Muslim-majority north, however, in areas like Southern Kaduna, there is a large Christian population. Cumulatively, non-Muslims make up about half of the population. In February 2000, Kaduna's Governor Ahmed Maikarfi announced the introduction of sharia to Kaduna State. In response, the Kaduna branch of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) organised a public protest against it in Kaduna City. Muslim youth, possibly perceiving it as an affront to their religion, clashed with the protesters. And so began, a campaign of violence and destruction. When it became clear that the police could not handle the violence, the army stepped in to intervene. A judicial commission set up by the Kaduna state government reported the official death toll to be 1,295. However, Human Rights Watch estimated the total number to be much higher. Fatalities, including those from March and May and many from February which the commission had not counted, were estimated to be much higher, somewhere between 2,000 and 5,000. If we don't learn from History we are clearly going on another civil war , only thing I see enveloping us from impending civil implosion in Nigeria is the Internet , and even here tribal wars (E-wars) are fought everyday , well it's only a matter of time tbh . Why the self hate or unnecessary kin-hate ![]()

4. The Asaba Massacre: (Death Toll: Over 700 men and boys) As Fu’ad Lawal writes, Asaba will never forget the events of one of the deadliest days of the Nigerian Civil War. Three months after the first gunshot had signified the start of the Nigerian civil war, Biafran troops marched into Nigeria’s midwest region as they advanced towards Lagos. After reaching as far as Ore, they were repelled by forces under the command of Col. Murtala Mohammed. The Biafran troops marched back to Onitsha in the Eastern heartland, after which they demolished the Niger Bridge, leaving the Nigerian Army stranded on the other side in Asaba. Aggrieved by this abrupt end to their march, the Nigerian soldiers went into Asaba and began checking through homes, accusing the people of sympathising with Biafra In a bid to quell the tensions, the leaders of the town asked the people to come out in a show of support for One Nigeria. Hundreds of men, women, and children, many wearing the ceremonial akwa ocha (white) attire paraded along the main street, singing, dancing, and chanting “One Nigeria.” It did nothing to placate the Nigerian Army. The people were gathered in an open square, men were separated from the women and over 700 boys and men were shot dead. (The hate on Igbos I still don't get it , how can you despise racism and encourage Tribalism , how can you be igbo and hate Osus) ![]()

3. The 2015 Baga Massacre: (Death Toll: 2,000 - 5,000) For years now, Nigeria’s North-East has become the theatre for a spate of terrorism and insurgency at the hands of the deadly Islamic militant group, Boko Haram. In 2015, the group launched an attack on the town of Baga in Born State, that left thousands dead and hundreds of thousands displaced. On the 3rd of January, a large army of Boko Haram militants ran into Baga and launched an attack on the Nigerian Army Base in the town. The Army Base in Baga was the headquarters of the Multinational Joint Task Force, an international force of soldiers from Nigeria, Niger and Chad which was formed in 1994 to manage security in the border areas and as a matter of necessity, combat the menace of Boko Haram. The group quickly overran the army base and the MNJTF task force headquarters, before setting into the main town and about 16 neighbouring villages. That attack lasted for four days. Soldiers fled after struggling to combat the militants. According to reports of those who fled the town, the group began to burn houses and kill survivors after a few days. On 9 January, a resident described the extent of the damage by reporting, “There is not any single house that is standing there.” According to Musa Bukar, head of the Kukawa Local Government Area, all 16 villages in the LGA were razed as well, and their residents either killed or forced to flee. Estimates state a death toll of over 2000 people over the four days. Over 35,000 people are reported to have been displaced. Many of these died of drowning while trying to cross Lake Chad. Others became trapped on islands in the lake.

2001 Jos Riots: (Death Toll: over 1,000 people) Religious relations in the city of Jos have always been in a delicate state, between the predominantly-Muslim north and the south, with a majority Christian position. Due to these clear distinction in geography and demography, the population on either side is fairly unreceptive towards foreigners who come to take jobs, settle or occupy major positions. In 2001, the Federal Government appointed a Hausa Muslim politician, Alhaji Muktar Mohammed as the local head of the Poverty Alleviation Programme. The move was protested by the local Christian population, raising already present tensions to a fever pitch. The spark that was missing came when a Christian woman attempted to cross a street barricaded for Friday prayers, leading to a dispute with the Muslims. The flame was ignited and the fight eventually spread to other areas of the city. Throughout Jos, the violence quickly became intense. Humans and property were set on fire. Persons of either religion attacked places of worship and set them on fire, killing worshippers. After over a week of murder and destruction, the army stepped in. By then, over 1,000 people had been killed. The number of bodies was so much that mass burials had to be arranged.’ The riots displaced over 50,000 people.

It is why when we hear reports of mass murder, like Nikolas Cruz’ murder of 17 students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida in the US state of Miami, we are often shocked. It is so easy to overlook when one does not know that this is a reality that we have lived, albeit in a different form, in the past, and more recently that we would permit ourselves to admit. Here are 5 of the deadliest mass killings in Nigerian history, for those who wish to remember that death has always been a part of our history. 1. Odi Massacre: (Death Toll: 43–2,500) On November 20, 1999, soldiers of the Nigerian army clashed with local militias and civilians in Odi, a town with a predominantly Ijaw population, in Bayelsa State. The clash came against the backdrop of ongoing conflicts by the people of the Niger-Delta and their rights to the proceeds of their region’s oil wealth. In the weeks before, the conflict had taken on a fatal dimension; twelve members of the Nigerian police were murdered by a gang near Odi, seven on November 4 and the remainder in the following days. To quell the conflict, soldiers were sent into the town. It is from here that the accounts of what happened swerve in different directions. The locals claim that the soldiers came into the town and murdered the inhabitants, including hundreds of women and children. The army claims that the soldiers were ambushed on their way to the town. Either way, on entering the town, they became locked in a fierce gun battle with the resident militants. There are claims that the militants used civilians for cover. When the army was finished, every building in the town, except the Anglican church and the local health centre, had been burned to the ground. The government put the death toll at 43, claiming that eight soldiers had been killed. Nnimmo Bassey, Executive Director of Environmental Rights Action, claims that nearly 2500 civilians were killed The massacre happened during the tenure of President Olusegun Obasanjo and till this day, the people of the South-South accuse him of ordering the raid. The Odi massacre left a scar on the residents of that region, and it has been referenced in movies and songs by Timaya and African China.

abisoladetoun:Hi ,Abeokuta? |
earthsync:Smell like teen spirit' is that Nirvana ? |
drnoel:that's mass murdering . Please know Serial killers are different from mass murderers |
What do Atheists feel about Killing others , since it was a ' law ' from God we should not kill our fellow beigns . Now let's take a look at our Society , in fact the whole world The percentage of a ritual killer been Theist ( following a specific spiritual diety or dieties) is 99.9 The percentage of a Murder Suspect been a theist is 90.8 The percentage of a Sucide bomber been a theist is 100 If you need God to stop you from killing then , you really should check what you are .. Why would an Atheist want to end a life? The Atheist knows , we live and die here , no after life so why waste a beign will so much potential to the future ? There something called 'Morality ' And morality again is subjective Do I need a God to tell me stealing something that is not mine is wrong? Africa before the Religious invasion had little incident of thieves , now with the advent of religion and the ' holy spirit ' there are still thieves now .they always were here , people who would steal would steal those who would kill would kill . If you were born in a world without the commandment 'thou shall not kill ' Would you just start killing people ? How would you be born ? The same way not all animals kill themselves So do we have those anomalies who kill other humans If God is so against killings , theivings So why did God create kleptomaniacs ? Why did God create Serial killers These are their biological makeup to see and kill , so are serial rapists . This question has been written a while ago, yet there are no answers I think are satisfactory. Many seem offended by the very question. But it is a legitimate question. Most of what we choose to do or not do that's important (and we're talking of a life or death issue here) should have good justifications. If you are unable to explain why you did or did not do something of major importance, then you did not think about the choice you have made, or not very well at the very least. Almost everyone on Earth considers murder wrong. Murder is by definition the unlawful killing of a human being according to the law of the country you reside in. But the heart of the matter lies not in legality. It lies in the action of killing an other human being, usually on purpose. This is what most people think murder is. It does not matter whether killing someone is sanctioned by law. Killing someone is killing someone. What makes it wrong? I can think of many different reasons: -The Golden rule: don't do to others what you don't want done to you. This is the most obvious one. -Society is based on trusting each other enough that we can collaborate and work together. If killing is prevalent enough, society breaks down and that makes our lifes collectively much more difficult, which most of us don't want. -It causes grief to people around the victim and the killer. Killing someone doesn't only hurt the victim, it hurts many more people too. -It constitutes taking away someone's right to choose for themselves and takes away their ability to do anything. In that regard, assisted suicide is not the same as killing someone against their will. -It is, to date, irreversible. If you kill someone, you cannot unkill them, and there are no reparations you can do that can make up for it. You can only be killed once. If you stand back up, or survive a killing attempt, then you were not killed. Killing being irreversible makes it an ultimate decision. It does not make it wrong in and of itself, but it does really highlight the importance and the weight of the decision to kill or not to kill. -Context matters a lot. This is why there are legal exceptions and distinctions do different sorts of killings. Murder has to be willful. Otherwise it is manslaughter. In some instances, killing an other person can go with lesser consequences if there was no other choice, such as self-defense in a context where deadly force was the only way to not get killed, yourself. (An extreme, invented example of this would be if a mass shooter started unloading mags at a restaurant, and you managed to snuck behind him and shatter a bar stool behind his head, fracturing his or her skull.) Other, more controversial contexts, can make the morality of killing neither black nor white, but generally, avoiding to kill is the preferred option and killing is a last resort. Those are, I think, the main and major reasons of why killing is universally considered to be wrong. The essence of those reasons is: we don't want it, and it cannot be repaired. So don't do it. Laws are based on that, with exceptions based on circumstances and convenience for the state. For instance, a soldier killing someone in a war as instructed to him or her is not considered murder because it is done lawfully. However, the same soldier killing a civilian just for fun is unlawful, and thus considered murder. Calling something “murder” doesn't make it right or wrong. It expresses the legal status of the action taken. But all in all, I think my points all need to be considered very carefully in order to determine if killing someone is moral or not, especially in questions pertaining to things like euthanasia or abortion.

drnoel:No , No . Ritual killings are motive driven , a compulsion something compulsory to do in order to attain something could be money driven (greed) , protection purposes (again greed driven) these are taken out by sociopaths of the Society Emontionally driven crimes , crimes of passion (when these ritualists use family members) Serial killers don't use family members( they choose strangers , only a fee percent derail and kill family members but rarely) , they are not provoked by anger , but a nessesity to kill , an urge to kill , even if they don't want to , it is painful mentally and physically not to follow your urge. It's like been hungry for the first time in a whole day no one has ever felt hunger and you must eat , even if it is illegal. |
