It's NOT Sucide,its facing your fears, Its conquering your limitations, its becoming UNLIMITED!, its all about instilling this virtues.
This has been our greatest undoing as Nigerians,We talk, we shout,we threaten but we never ACT! If half of Nairalanders do what we SAY,we are enough to CHANGE Nigeria, but we are always afraid of being Shot, arrested, molested, denied abandoned, laughed-at......

Nigellus_Hosan: and how is suicide going to help us

Parachuting, or skyjumping, is the action sport of exiting an aircraft and returning to Earth with the aid of gravity, then slowing down during the last part of the descent by using a parachute (or other means - in 2012, British stuntman Gary Connery used a wing suit and a specially prepared box landing rig for this[1]). It may or may not involve a certain amount of free-fall, a time during which the parachute has not been deployed and the body gradually accelerates to terminal velocity. The history of skydiving starts with Andre-Jacques Garnerin who made successful descents using a canvas canopy and small basket, tethered beneath a hot-air balloon. The first intentional freefall jump with a ripcord-operated deployment is credited to Leslie Irvin in 1919 ; however, the stunt jumper Georgina "Tiny" Broadwick claimed to have made earlier freefall jumps simply by cutting her static-line and manually pulling the remaining cord-end after falling away from the aircraft. The military developed parachuting technology as a way to save aircrews from emergencies aboard balloons and aircraft in flight, and later as a way of delivering soldiers to the battlefield. Early competitions date back to the 1930s, and it became an international sport in 1952.
Parachuting is performed as a recreational activity and a competitive sport, as well as for the deployment of military personnel Airborne forces and occasionally forest firefighters.
A skydiving center can be a commercial operation or a club, usually operates at an airport, and provides one or more aircraft that takes groups of skydivers up for a fee. An individual jumper can go up in a light aircraft such as a Cessna 172 or Cessna 182. At busier drop zones (DZs) larger turbine-powered aircraft may be used: such as the Cessna 208, de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter, GippsAero GA8 Airvan or Short SC.7 Skyvan.
A typical sport parachuting jump involves individuals exiting an aircraft (usually an airplane, but sometimes a helicopter or even the gondola of a balloon), at anywhere from 1,000 to 4,000 meters (3,000 to 13,000 feet) altitude. If jumping from a low altitude, the parachute is usually deployed immediately; however, at higher altitudes, the skydiver may free-fall for up to ~1 minute [2] deploying their main parachute, typically at an altitude of 1000M (~3,500 ft), and landing several minutes later.
After the parachute opens, the jumper can control the direction and speed with toggles on the end of steering lines that attach to the trailing edge of the parachute, and can aim for the landing site and come to a relatively gentle stop. All modern sport parachutes are self-inflating "ram-air" wings that provide control of speed and direction similar to the related paragliders. Purists in either sport would note that paragliders have much greater lift and range, but that parachutes are designed to absorb the stresses of deployment at relatively terminal velocity (~120 mph).
By manipulating the shape of the body in freefall, a skydiver can generate turns, forward motion, backwards motion, and even lift (relative to other jumpers, not the ground).
When leaving an aircraft, for a few seconds a skydiver continues to travel forward as well as down, due to the momentum imparted by the aircraft's motion (known as "forward throw". The perception of a change from horizontal to vertical flight is known as the "relative wind", or informally as "being on the hill". In freefall, skydivers generally do not experience a "falling" sensation because the resistance of the air to their body at speeds above about 50 mph (80 km/h) provides some feeling of weight and direction. At normal exit speeds for aircraft (approx 90 mph (140 km/h)) there is little feeling of falling just after exit, but jumping from a relatively stationary balloon or helicopter can create this sensation. Skydivers reach terminal velocity (around 120 mph (190 km/h) for belly to Earth orientations, 150–200 mph (240–320 km/h) for head down orientations) and are no longer accelerating towards the ground. At this point the sensation is as of a forceful wind.

Jump with Russian flag
Many people make their first jump with an experienced and trained instructor – this type of skydive may be in the form of a tandem skydive. During the tandem jump the instructor is responsible for emergency procedures in the unlikely event that they will be needed, therefore freeing the student to concentrate on learning to skydive. Other training methods include static line, IAD (Instructor Assisted Deployment), and AFF (Accelerated Free fall) also known as Progressive Free-Fall (PFF) in Canada.

Hmm 70% of them are just THEORETICAL lrepeaters,- We have the 1st prof of Agriculture in africa= yet we cant produce seedless watermelon
1st prof of Chemical engineering= Nothing to show, No malaria drug ordinary Dogoyaro hasnt being processed into drugs, Ordinary Herbal 'prof' self they produce something. They must be productive!
Same lecture notes used in 1980s are still in use, How many of them have transcripted their notes to soft copies to distribute to students via emails?
Every year 'SMALL" monies are sent to schools for maintanance who they chop am? is it ZERO allocation that UNIVERSITIES GET?
Ok ASUU want 800billion FG is offering 400billion, start with that one is it in one year that ASUU will finish 800billion.
I don tired for this thing o
FG 'Semi PRIVATISE" the Universities Joo, Handover Management to others, ANY STUDENT That get over 200 in Jamb and get admitted, FG automatically pays the school fees. After all FG claims to spend N250,000/student excluding salaries.

Demdem: Kudos to ASUU. am really proud of them.
They shouldnt bother themselves with the no work no pay shyte.
Govt will still pay them and the years of allownaces being owned them not yet paid.
Those that were not paid for years in Unilorin were eventually paid in a day making them multi-millionaires even though they were teaching in other Unis.
No work no pay no matter how honourable it is isnt the solution, the solution is the implementation of signed agreement. its honourable on the part of govt to honour her part of the agreement and let ASUU also honor hers
A labourer is entitled to his wage. let Govt Pay ASUU what is being owned them in allowances over the years and see ASUU get back to classes. Failure to do that, i dont expect them in there.

I am A BEE Christian! To me different Churches have their denominations and area of calling which i call Flowers, I take the best(pollens) and go and MAKE HONEY in my BEEHIVE. If I need to brush up on Holiness- Deeper Life Retreat, HEALTH- Christ Embassy e.t.c you cannot keep eating EBA and bitterleaf everyday, balance your DIET- confirm teachings from the mouth of 2 or 3 withnesses!

The Land is now only Valuable because FCT came here
Hopefully Government will pay rent for its buildings, what of Civilians, the Army, Navy, Customs....
Because if your THEORY applies, NNPC,Airforce, ARMY in kaduna will pay rent, ABUJA Univeristy, ABU,UNILAG, infact all LAND the federal Government has ever collected will be paying rent!!

will be

shymexx: Preach to them, brother.

It seems you understand them better.

No one jokes with land and if you're not a super-power or one of the five countries on the UNSC (err not US or Russia because UK, France and China don't get a pass all the time) - then you can't claim anyone's land.

Haba Dont exergerate o, yes it was GWARI land, but how many were there?that area was the most sparsely populated part of central Nigeria then with most going to minna,Kaduna and lokoja, it was after the creation of FCT that the population started booming due to migration of both GWARIS and other Nigerians.
this is what abuja looked like in th 80's not to talk of 70's where are the Gwari towns na.

Reasons for demolition diff, obstruction of waterway/drainage is different from estate construction

kokoA: Nigerians and double standard.. Smh! A month ago, the government of Borno state marked some churches for demolition, christian nairalanders rained down insults on the governor and accused borno government of persecuting christians. Its a pity! Nigeria can only progress if we decide to drop religious and ethnic sentiments.

Are we sure they are Nigerians? A lot of other west africans keep claiming they are Nigerians. where are there passports, or Ids? What are there Names? But because there are massive kidnapping in Nigeria and the news is well exported, the kidnappers must be from Nigeria Hmmm!
Kidnapping must not be condone by any society, but we need to thread carefully so innocent ones dont suffer.
Did they find the missing boy with them, in their house or their car? or is it just because they happen to be around the area where the boy got missing? has the boy been found NOW?
Naijas kill Nigeria with our mouth! No comments until thorough investigation is concluded!
