Crime › Canadian Authorities Discover 70 Stolen Cars Destined For Nigeria And Ghana by Validated(op): 6:29am On Nov 26, 2020
York and Toronto police have made a “large” recovery of more than 70 stolen cars worth more $4.5 million in a joint investigation with the Canada Border Services Agency

Seventy-three vehicles have been found from across the GTA due to the work of the York Regional Police, Toronto Police and Canada Border Services Agency.

“Auto theft is of huge concern to police,” Toronto Police Supt. Ron Taverner told the Toronto Sun.

“And we’re actively involved in investigations and targeting groups that are involved in these particular crimes. They’re organized crime groups and they’re going out and stealing these vehicles and, in a lot of cases, they’re being put in containers and shipped off to other countries. And we’re finding more and more of this is taking place. Money drives a lot of these crimes.”

The investigation began in September when authorities became aware of a gang of thieves allegedly targeting Lexus, Toyota and Honda cars and operating out of a location on Kitimat Rd. in Mississauga, according to police.

Investigators have also allegedly linked this ring to another 32 stolen cars that are believed to have been shipped overseas to either Ghana or Nigeria.

“Our investigators have been working tirelessly to identify those responsible for the many thefts of high-end vehicles in York Region,” said York Regional Police Chief Jim MacSween.

Abu Sadiq Ayi, 41; Michael Atta, 32; Prince Boateng, 42; and David Ansong 40 — all of Toronto — face many charges including theft of a motor vehicle.

Taverner said there has been an increased number of vehicle thefts in Toronto from residential driveways.

What are your dreams of a New Nigeria?

For me, I want to see a nation where corruption whether in government or private sector is punished with severe penalty.

A country where education is not only compulsory, but mandatory.

A country where religion and ethnicity are relegated to the background.

A country where hard work and sincerity is rewarded rather who you know or where you are from.

And many more ...

We know those who can't be trusted with power in this country, that's why they are kept at arms length whenever it matters most!

You wake up early in d morning to write thrash.
Ambode contested in APC primaries and was roundly beaten, just like gej was trounced in d 2015 pres. election and they both chose d path of honor just like gej did.

Even without asking, I know d region u come from- DT part that can't be trusted to honor agreements, d part that's known for treachery and backing traitors!

Cowards are good at defecting on issues. They lack grace and honour. They are only concerned about themselves with self-interest - existence rather than living
“Cowardice has no grace, but it definitely has the disgrace of timorousness” ― Munia Khan, Attainable
“It is not conscience, but self-interest, that makes cowards of us all.” ― Marty Rubin


Cowards lack intelligence and sef worth, rather want to compare themselves with the lows of medicrity
“Intelligence is suffocated by things such as cowardice and diffidence.” ― Mokokoma Mokhonoana, You my friend meet these characteristics.

Politics › Where Does History Leave The Cowards? Case Of Akinwunmi Ambode! by Validated(op): 6:28am On Aug 18, 2020
Earlier yesterday, I learnt that former Lagos State governor, Akinwunmi Ambode have been finally denied the Lagos East Senatorial seat ticket of APC, the party he so cowardly stuck to to avaod being "dealt with". Unfortunately, that is the fate of a coward. No woman should respect a coward, if you are married to one, please threaten him to change because he cannot protect you.

Seeing how Obaseki is handling the godfather issue in Edo and fighting like a man, I can only conclude that Ambode chickening out was a very wrong move. Bullies succeed because their victims chicken out easily. Most bullies are cowards, that is what we are seeing in Edo today. Win or lose ... remain a fighter. History will always be on the side of the brave. Look what becomes of a former executive Governor of Lagos because he was too scared to fight back. If some of us had the powers of an executive governor and Lagos State for that matter, who was in charge of average of N60Billion monthly IGR, even the FG will not be able to defeat me. I would have bought out 20 of the 24 or so LASG HOA, buy out the judiciary, and rendered my opponents incapacitated. Yes, with good money, you can buy ANYONE in Nigeria's political space. Everyone has his price and the executive governor had the money, power and all that was missing was COURAGE. Unfortunately, cowards like Ambode even if given the power of a president would still chicken out. Sad!

To fully understand who cowards really are, lets us check what the great ones said about cowards and the concept of cowardice as well legacies of cowards:

Few Things for our Youth to Learn

1. Face your challenges, do not run from them. If you do, your bullies will be empowered but if you face them, you would be surprise as they fade away. Hear this:
“If you run from enemy fire, it will make you wash dishes for the rest of your life!” grin ― Naoki Urasawa, 20th Century Boys, 19

“That was the thing to remember about all monsters, They love to frighten people, but the minute you stare them down, they turn tail and run.”
― Jeanette Walls
“A man that flies from his fear may find that he has only taken a short cut to meet it.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Children of Húrin


2. Cowards cannot claim to love, they are selfish and cannot fight for their beliefs which oftentimes are the right things to do. As said by these men and women of honour:
“A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave.” ― Mahatma Gandhi

"Cowardice is a trait wherein excessive fear prevents an individual from taking a risk or facing danger. It is the opposite of courage. As a label, "cowardice" indicates a failure of character in the face of a challenge. One who succumbs to cowardice is known as a coward. ... and that the bulwark of his historical evidence" – S.L.A. Marshall's

“Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win, by fearing to attempt.” ― William Shakespeare, Measure for Measure


3. Cowards seek easy way out and comprise by making peace with treacherous opponent even when in position to face such threats
“Tolerance of intolerance is cowardice.” ― Ayaan Hirsi Ali

4. Cowards look the other way, thinking afterall, the treath is not targetted at me or mine. Soon, they realise they were wrong:
“In Germany they came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.

Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up for me.” ― Martin Niemöller


5. Cowards always end up finding themselves hounded by their worst fear - capture and disgrace

“There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general:
(1) Recklessness, which leads to destruction;
(2) cowardice, which leads to capture;
(3) a hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults;
(4) a delicacy of honor which is sensitive to shame;
(5) over-solicitude for his men, which exposes him to worry and trouble.”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“Fear of ridicule begets the worst cowardice.” ― André Gide

“Cowardice rightly understood begins with selfishness and ends with shame.” ― José Rizal, Noli Me Tángere [Touch Me Not]


6. Cowards look for excuse and oftentimes place the blame on others or something instead of accepting responsibilities:
“I do not wish to be a coward like the father of mankind and throw the blame upon a woman.” ― Ouida, Wanda, Countess von Szalras.

7. Cowards die in regrets and you can guess even Heaven will have no respect for such
“But often life asks much of you, and you either honor life by answering with all your heart, or you cower your way into your grave.” ― James Clemens, Hinterland

8. God does not respect the coward, rather God encourages the brave and courageus. So, God is always with the brave, not the cowards
"Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you. - Deut 31:6

“One must pray first, but afterward one must help oneself. God does not care for cowards. - --"Wanda” ― Ouida


9. Leadership should be the exclusive preserve of the brave. The cowards are amongst the masses
“That gutless pack of hyenas called the masses.” ― Marty Rubin

10. All progress the world has made is a function of bravery. Bravery informed a man flying an object that could end his life and change human traveling, bravery made men to push beyond the ordinary, etc
“All progress begins with the brave, not the spineless coward.” ― Abhijit Naskar, Revolution Indomable

Are Nigerians brave or cowards? Hear the answer from a Nigerian
“Brave men outshine cowards, but cowards sometimes outlive them. Many cowards have had the honour to read the funeral orations of many brave men.” ― Nkwachukwu Ogbuagu

"We no wan die, we no wan quench, so police can wipe your ass and you will stand like zombie - Fela Anikulapo Kuti"


We care more about living even if we are merely existing. That is the Nigerian masses - COWARDS!

The Obvious truth here is that Septembe,19th in Edo state will definitely be a fight for the fittest. While the resisting Citizens should be test running their plan B and C in an eventual ballot box snatching and sporadic shooting overnight like in kogi

Security agents during this period often look elsewhere
And Buhari will be usually be in shock over the incidence

The point here is that Edo and PDP Should be ready to protect their votes with ruggedness
Do you know why armed robbers operate successfully? it is because they go to their victims who are largely:

- unarmed - If victims are armed, the robbers will think twice
- unprepared - if the robbers know that you are aware that they is coming, they will think twice.

Now juxtapose above scenario into Edo politics. Everyone including Obaseki, his supporters and PDP know that APC is planning on rigging to win. This is what will make rigging difficult as the incumbent governor also has his thugs ready to face kabbka and his team. Hope you remember the brush they had at oba's palace where APC thugs were easily neutralised. Even if APC import MC Oluomo from Lagos, which is likely, PDP have them in abundance in Edo, Rivers, Delta and Bayelsa States. Do not forget that the ex-militants have seen it all. MC Oluomo and Kabakka are children where the Niger Delta militants stand. Noone has the monopoly of violence.
