@Gamine,

You are taking this thing too personal. are u sure that u were not in Chris Okotie's church before he, ,
BTW, what a fine woman!

Virgo83:

If this is truly Naija Made, Men I Concur.
Ibo People Don Land With Aba Made Cartoon. Sound somehow ridiculous, try to appreciate them as a Nigerian

@ virgo83,

grafikdon created his own thread but there was not much response. I think what attracted people here was the caption given to it. Everyone wants to see the 'Aba made cartoon'. But believe me, our young guys are doing their best and I agree with you they should be appreciated no matter the level of development. This will go a long way to encourage people to venture into other productive things.

This is good. More than I expected. There is room for improvement tho. I love it. Congrats to the guys that made this.

From what I gathered from other sources, Virgin Nigeria signed an agreement to operate a hub within MMIA but not that both international and local fligths will originate from the international terminal. And before virgin came to Nigeria and signed this contract, a contract has already been finalised and signed by the contractor that built MMA2 for domestic flights. And in this contract, there is a provision that after the MMA2 is completed all domestic flights should originate from there. This clause was there so the contractor can make profit from his investment since it was on BOT which means after some years of operation, the contractor will hand it over to the government.

This contract was there and the construction of MMA2 was already on before virgin entrance. If Virgin is allowed to operate its domestic flight on the international wing then govt will be in breach of this first BOT contract and ofcourse the contractor will lose money. I don't see what virgin will lose by relocating their domestic operations to MMA2.

You are a Nigerian. The residents have been relocated and another local govt created inside Cross river state also called Bakassi. You belong there and so do Senator Mrs Florence Ita Giwa that represented the zone in the senate.

To settle this quarrel, lets take a little definition of sniper.

According to Wikipedia,

"A sniper is an infantry combatant or serviceman (e.g. police officer) who specializes in shooting from a concealed position over longer ranges than regular infantry, often with a specially designed or adapted sniper rifle. A sniper requires skill in marksmanship, camouflage, and field craft. Military snipers are also adept at carrying out methods of infiltration, reconnaissance, and observation techniques"

Is this art so difficult that our own police can't attempt it as some people believe here or is it just the name, sniper, that is confusing things? I bet you, Nigerian police and soldiers have men that are very good in this. There is nothing so special about being a sniper just that the name is not common here in Nigeria. But you'll sure hear about marksmen or sharpshooters in police circles.

The N100 million dinner for Obama
By Reuben Abati
Source: http://www.guardiannewsngr.com/editorial_opinion/article02//indexn2_html?pdate=150808&ptitle=The%20N100%20million%20dinner%20for%20Obama

"Some skeptical people have been writing nonsense and rubbish in the newspapers that what is my business with Obama. But they are free to continue to write petitions. It is not their money that we are spending. Ask them is it your money that we are spending?" These are the exact words of Professor Ndidi Okereke-Onyiuke, Director General of the Nigerian Stock Exchange, and Chairman of the Africans for Obama 2008, a non-governmental Nigeria-based group that is campaigning vigorously, raising funds and mobilizing support for the US Democratic Presidential candidate, Barack Obama. The landlady of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (she has been in that position for close to a decade) was defending the expensive fund-raising dinner that was organized for Barack Obama on Monday, August 11, at the Shell Hall of the MUSON centre in Lagos.

There were reportedly 56 buffet tables at the dinner, loaded with champagne, red wine, beer and assorted drinks, Obama's posters decorated the stage and the entrance, with a 25-metre long rug on which was boldly written: YES WE CAN. It is probably the most expensive dinner anyone has ever eaten in that Shell Hall, at N2. 5 million for a Platinum Corporate Table and Individual: N325, 000, and for a Gold Table: N2m and N275, 000 respectively. Madam Okereke-Onyiuke does not want to be criticised, because after all it is not our money that was being spent. The event, not to talk of the idea of a fund-raising dinner for Obama, is an invitation to commentary. She should know that.

The Madam admires Barack Obama. We all do. His brilliance, his charisma and the historical significance of his emergence as a leading contender for the US Presidency - all of this is impressive. From China to Chad, there is a phenomenal obsession with Obama and his message of change. Okereke-Onyiuke had once met Obama in the United States, had had the chance of a photo-op with him and even a brief conversation, In 2003, she organised a similar fund-raising shindig under the umbrella of Corporate Nigeria, to help the Obasanjo re-election campaign. In 2006, Okereke-Onyiuke was one of the staunch supporters of Obasanjo's anti-democratic Third Term Agenda. She had also helped to raise funds for Transcorp of which she was one of the original promoters, although through a sleight of hand at the Stock Exchange.

Since this woman is so gifted in raising funds to help others, why is she not on record yet as raising funds to support worthy causes that may benefit the poor? When would she mobilise her rich friends to raise funds to help motherless babies homes in Nigeria? Or the army of unemployed youths on our streets? Would she and her friends some day consider organizing fund-raising dinners to support the fight against HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria? Madam Onyiuke gives the impression that she loves to raise funds to support powerful men: Obasanjo in 2003 was the most powerful man in Nigeria. She had enthused at the controversial dinner on Monday, that Obama, as President of the United States will also be the president of the world: a position she created! Rich Nigerians like to support themselves or their ilk, but imagine how many Nigerian lives N100 million can transform.

The fund-raising dinner for Obama was bound to be controversial.

Onyiuke says the money will be used to mobilize five million Africans in the United States to vote for Obama in the November US Presidential election because "he is our brother". The ideological basis of the exercise is flawed, informed as it is by sheer racism, and this is a reflection of the Nigerian political process. Nearly every Nigerian that I know who has been supporting Obama does so largely because the man is "our brother". This politics of exclusion cannot serve Obama's interest if it gets reported in the American media that some African natives have been staging a song and a dance for him and pretending to have a say in the American election. Obama was endorsed during the primaries by blacks and whites, and for the average American, the main issue is not simply race but health care, the economy, Iraq, NAFTA and so on.

Obama is not running a racist or tribal campaign. As President he will not go out of his way to defend black or African interests. The myth that when our own "brother" is in power, he would defend our interest is a major shortcoming in African politics, but it is a myth that has been exploded again and again. How many brothers and sisters from our streets, residents associations, or professional groups have we voted into power or whose pre-eminence we have celebrated only for them to turn around and disappoint us thoroughly? In South Africa, two black men have been President since the introduction of black majority rule. How much change has that brought to the average black South African?

In June, the Obama Campaign team announced that they were not interested in public campaign funds, and therefore opted to devote more energy to raising funds from private sources, particularly individuals. But the kind of money that Onyiuke and co have raised is not the money that the Obama campaign needs or is looking for. It is money that it should reject. The US Foreign Election Campaign Act (FECA) 1974 "prohibits any foreign nationals from contributing, donating or spending funds in connection with any federal, state or local election in the United States, either directly or indirectly. It is also unlawful to help foreign nationals violate that ban or to solicit, receive or accept contributions or donations from them. Persons who knowingly or willingly engage in these activities may be subject to fine and/or imprisonment."

The Africans for Obama 2008 group had tried to circumvent this by stating that part of the money raised will be used to sponsor some of their members to the Democratic Convention in Minnesota later this month. This would be illegal within the purview of the US law, more so as these self-appointed "delegates" intend to use the money to mobilize African support. Moblise? Do they intend to bribe voters? Or travel to the US with election monitors, ballot box snatchers, ghost voters or able-bodied men? Eric Wright, Obama's policy maker for Africa attended the dinner on Monday. Does this not amount to solicitation or willingly and knowingly encouraging foreign funding of the Obama campaign?

Wright said he was not speaking for Obama or the campaign team. What was he doing at the dinner, then? The FECA further states that immigrants with "a green card" may contribute to US elections, US citizens too of course, and foreign nationals can only take part in non-election activities. There are members of the Onyiuke group who are Nigerians in Diaspora, but who are they? There are hidden ways in which foreigners have tried to influence American elections through donations. The 1996/97 scandal of "the China plan" has shown just how embarrassing an eventual discovery of this could be. If the Nigerians raising funds for Obama are not stopped, a scandal may be in the offing. The staff of the Nigerian Stock Exchange were actively involved in the Obama event on Monday Was this part of their official assignment? Is there no more serious work at the Stock Exchange?

The Obama website provides detailed conditions for donating to the campaign: For example: "We don't take money from Washington lobbyists or special interest political action committees". How are we sure that there are no lobbyists among the August 11 Obama dinners in Lagos? And definitely an Africans for Obama group that is preaching racism is a special interest political action committee. The Obama website adds that donors must also meet these conditions:

1. I am a United States citizen or a lawfully-admitted permanent resident.

2. I am at least 16 years old.

3. This contribution is not made from the general treasury funds of a corporation, labor organization or national bank.

4. This contribution is not made from the funds of a political action committee.

5. This contribution is not made from the treasury of an entity or person who is a federal contractor.

6. This contribution is not made from the funds of an individual registered as a federal lobbyist or a foreign agent, or an entity that is a federally registered lobbying firm or foreign agent.

7. The funds I am donating are not being provided to me by another person or entity for the purpose of making this contribution

The Africans for Obama fund-raisers are off course in relation to most of these conditions. Well what does it matter: they are already "eating" the money themselves. N100 million at the rate of N117 to the dollar is about $854, 900. 85. They spared little espense in organizing their dinner and concert. A total of five musicians, one compere and two stand up comedians and newspaper and television adverts. This costs a lot of money. The dinner must also have cost a fortune, with the Obama campaigners guzzling wine and food ravenously. In Nigeria, oftentimes, money raised on behalf of a candidate may not even be handed over to him or to his campaign office, but the money can be spent on his behalf and in his name to bribe voters or to encourage voters as it were! The Obama Campaign team should issue a disclaimer on all foreign groups and persons purportedly raising funds on their behalf.

It is instructive that the success of the Okereke-Onyiuke initiative is spawning a copy-cat syndrome and may soon grow into a lucrative enterprise. Last week, some other persons announced the formation of "Africans for Obama or McCain 2008"; in response to "Africans for Obama 2008." A Legislators for Obama 2008 group already exists! We are expecting Nigerian Students for Obama., Nigerian Widows for McCain, Nigerian Youths Earnestly Ask for Obama , all of which may announce fund-raising events. The charade must end. The Obama brand and message face the threat of being commercialised, and monetised by the candidate's Nigerian admirers. And yet we have no stake in the American election. What is the matter with us?

###########################

I join Mr. Abati in asking this question: What is really wrong with us? Are we cursed or something?

Your reactions please.

Isabel takes it.

I've actually finished watching the movie. A colleague in the office brought the original DVDs and we were able to crack it and copy to our laptops. But the DVD is very big. Its 4 DVDs and each is above 7GB. The original title of the movie is Body of Desire.

For Goodness sake, Life is Life. Be it that of an Igbo, Hausa or Yourba or any other for that matter. For someone to try to justify the death of somebody in this manner is despicable to say the least. It is opinions like this that makes me think that majority of Nigerians are either inhuman or insane.

Someone that was held in a police custody to be dragged out and killed by a mob? Just because he is from another tribe? Such an action can only emanate from the pit of hell.

Let me ask Mr. Usman a question: If that Igbo man that was killed is his own brother, will he have justified that action? or if he is a northerner, will such have happened?

We Nigerians tend to leave the common problems confronting us to attack ourselves. In the midst of abject poverty, darkness and colossal breakdown of infrastructure, we still have time to hate in this manner. Our political leaders are there stealing blindly and we have not raised a protest against them. Are we the only country that have several ethnic nationalities? Even in America, you have different people and different habits but Americans know when to be Americans.
Shame on Nigeria! Shame on this generation that has chosen to toe the bad footsteps of their fathers!

What I expected to hear in this forum is how to make sure that things like this does not happen in this century and not for some pple to justify the action. I expect to see in Nairaland solutions from our generation on how to solve Nigeria's problems. Problems of Poverty, security, power etc.

In the light of the above statement, the police should step up and perform is constitutional role of protecting the lives and property of every Nigerian citizen no matter where he or she resides. No matter his or her ethnic coloration. The government should take a look at the police and policing in general with a view to restructuring if necessary. I think this latter assertion is long overdue. It is common knowledge (and everyone agree) that the police is not performing. At least we know that since 1999. Now after eight years of democracy, there is no improvement or like a friend will say, the police improved negatively.

Finally, this matter should be investigated by the police authorities to ascertain the hows and remote causes that led to this man being abducted from the police station. where they some police collaborators? People are supposed to be secure in a police station.
Let us have some suggestions on the police and policing in general. that is where I think our problem lies.

@kobojunkie,

am interested in this business analyst thing. Can you help introduce me to it? And can I combine it with my normal job?

sartorius:

good news? i only hope he can walk the talk

I feel you. I hope so too. I wish him the best though.

WAOH!!!!! Very nice verdict!
Oshiomhole won the election and that is the truth.

@ t-ryhmes

Can you elaborate more on Africa magic and dstv channels.
Tanx.

I have hitv dish which am using in PH for the past two months. Looking back, I would say its a wasted venture. I am wondering if it will be possible to use the same antenna dish and buy a dstv decoder. Will that work? Any ideas? Again, whats the subscription like with dstv?

Thanks a million guys for your good hearts.

•Revoked his only plot
•Made 85-yr-old writer come to Abuja and still refused to rescind the order
By Linus Obogo (linusobogo@yahoo.com)
Saturday, January 19, 2008


Even as he bade his long goodbye at age 86, January 4th, frontline author, late Chief Cyprian Ekewnsi probably did so with a heavy heart, despite his literary accomplishment. A sad victim of Mallam Nasir El-Rufai’s hysterical land revocation drive, while as FCT minister, the late literary icon, before he breathed his last on November 4th, 2007, literally went down on his knees severally, not minding the age gap, before the former minister, begging to be allowed his only property in the federal capital territory, an undeveloped plot of land, which ownership El-Rufai revoked in 2006, in a manner that was not only befuddling, but challenged logic and common sense.

Acquired in 1992, the plot of land (Re: Certificate of Occupancy NO. FCT/ABU/AN: 2233), which is located at 272 Utako District, Cadastral Zone B5, according to available documents Saturday Sun chanced into, was paid for after due diligence, when the late foremost writer was federal director of Information and later, chairman of the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria.

As if the former minister was executing a personal agenda against the revered author, Saturday Sun gathered that in one of El-Rufai’s revalidation exercises at which the late story teller’s physical presence was required, but he could not do so, owing to his failing health then, his only property in Abuja, which he had laboured upon was ceded to a new owner, in the face of available records with the ex-minister.
In an emotional and heartrending letter dated July 17, 2006, to El-Rufai and entitled “Revocation of my plot No. 272 Utako District Cadastral Zone B5(Re: Certificate of Occupancy No. FCT/ABU/AN:2233), following the revocation, Ekwensi, while appealing for El-Rufai’s intervention wrote: “I write to seek your gracious intervention in the supposed revocation of the only plot of land I have in Abuja.

The details of the matter are as follows:
As a former Federal Director of Information and then Chairman of the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria, I was allocated a plot of land in 1992 for which I paid all the required charges. I was issued a Certificate of Occupancy NO. FCT/ABU/AN:2233 on August 2, 2000.
I had been grievously ill since then and had been in and out of hospital both at home and abroad, as my good friend, President Obasanjo, who graciously assisted me can attest.

Some days ago, I sent emissaries to inspect the land and also contact the Abuja Geographical Information System (AGIS) and they came back with words that the allocation has been revoked and the land given to someone else. At the age of 85, I had to travel down from Enugu to see you on this matter.
My children who would have taken up the matter were abroad. Two of them, George and Ike, recently came home and have accompanied me on this trip to see you.
The land is the only property I have in Abuja after serving this great nation in various capacities before and since independence.

Presently, there is no development in the land. Even if it has been re-allocated, the new allotee can be given another place while my original property is reverted to me.
I am ready to pay whatever charges and fees required to reclaim the said plot of land.
I attach herewith, for your kind perusal, relevant documents to substantiate my points in 1 to 7 above.
I should be grateful if you would kindly intervene, please”, the letter read.

During Ekwensi’s visit with his two children to El-Rufai, Saturday Sun gathered that the late novelist who was too ill to climb the flights of stairs leading to the minister’s office had to be received on the ground floor, with assurances that the revocation would be rescinded.
He was particularly impressed that the minister could come down to receive him and was further enamored by the reverence in the minister’s tone, as he referred to him as ‘Daddy’ at some point in their conversation.

But all the reverence seemed to have ended with the departure of the author of the famous Jagua Nana. Everything returned to status quo, as the ministerial guarantee and assurances soon proved to be feeble and half-hearted as it was given.
Nothing concrete was done to reverse the action, prompting Ekwensi, almost a year later to engage in another correspondence with El-Rufai on the matter.
With extreme unwillingness, following the minister’s inaction and dead silence after his visitation, Ekwensi, in a follow-up letter dated May 21, 2007, entitled “Your promise to rescind the revocation of my plot”, reminded:

“I write with extreme reluctance, having struggled with a cocktail of emotions since I last managed to come physically to Abuja to see you over the revocation of my only plot in Abuja.
You did promise to do something within two weeks. I sent Mr. Wole Olaoye as agreed to monitor developments and report back to me. He has not made any headway because he was consistently told that there had been no instruction from you to the effect that the revocation order on my plot be rescinded or that I be allocated another plot in compensation. Those were the alternatives you proffered at our meeting.

I know that ministers are busy people. But I also know that they don’t give their words lightly. I recall that you even promised to grace the occasion of my 85th birthday, but the invitation card sent to your office was not even acknowledged. It is now nearly midnight in the life of this administration. I thought that maybe I should, at least, make one last ditch effort to reach you so as to fulfill all righteousness. That is why I have taken the liberty to interrupt your busy schedule.
I should appreciate the fulfillment of your promise on this matter. Failing which you can rest assured that I would not have the energy and the opportunity to further disturb you over the matter. Please accept my very warm regards and best wishes.”

If Ekwensi was under any illusion that ministers held their words sacred, Minister El-Rufai proved him wrong as he remained dodgy and consistently vacillated on the issue until he expired with Obasanjo’s administration.
Consistent with politicians for double-speak, El-Rufai’s promise was broken to Ekwensi’s face, regardless of the novelist already in the evening of his life and his contribution to Nigeria’s narrative.
While no alternative was offered or the revocation order rescinded before his passage last year, even after his last ditch effort, concerns have variously been expressed as to whether Ekwensi rightly deserved the treatment he got from El-Rufai, denying him the only property situated in the federal capital that would have served to preserve his memory.

True to his last letter, the energy and opportunity to further disturb El-Rufai died with Ekwensi, just as the property he duly paid for was denied him, either because of his name or the art with which he made his name.
Perhaps this explains why the post-humus award of the Member of Federal Republic was overshadowed by protestations from the Nidgbo, a pan-Igbo social-cultural organization, describing as a mockery of Ekwensi’s essence.

I don't understand why some pple will not take few minutes to go thru posts before jabbering on their keyboard. This guy's post is simple, clear and understandable. Whether he is doing it because he was laid off is not the issue. That he is a supposedly disgruntled employee does not sweep the alleged case of fraud under the rug.

What is important is that he has facts to prove that fraud was committed, he did the right thing to report to the EFCC and EFCC, the last time i checked, has the mandate to investigate and prosecute all economic and financial crimes pepertrated against the state and not only the ones perpetrated by Atiku, Kalu and other politicians. Also, that the case file of the matter got missing in EFCC's custody is another serious issue and shows that there is an underhand manouvering that went on.

In this era of transparency and accountability, it is absurd that some pple will be championing the theory of "letting sleeping dogs lie". And tomorrow we all will assemble in nairaland to cast aspersions on our leaders. If we have nothing to advise the poster, we rather not post anything.

@celemel,
Like some other pple have said, assemble your facts and pursue this issue to a logical conclusion.
You need to give out the information you have. I am an IT professional like you and I believe you know your onions and so i do not need to tell you the way to go.

The media is your greatest weapon. There are so many journalists looking for hot stories that will get them their desired promotion. Infact, journalists will take the fight from you and do a thorough investigation than you've done and if it's a good case, believe me they will blow it to high heavens.

You are the very example of everything you wrote.
All the time and energy it took you to write all this grammar would have been useful in a more productive venture.
Surely, you need to visit a psychiatrist. You are going mad my brother. Take my word for it.

, if Igbos are not productive and cannot write books in any of the sciences(which is a lie), why write a book on them? Why not you that are much more endowed write a book on biology, chemistry, mathematics etc instead of writing a book on Igbos.

Nawa o for some pple, abeg i have better things to do with my time. Try see doctor o! Na so e dey start.

HIV/AIDS Cure
How the West deceives Nigeria – Jacob Abdulahi
By TONY ICHEKU, Abuja
Monday, November 26, 2007

•Dr Jacob Abdulahi

Since 1998, Dr Jacob Abdulahi has been singing he has a cure for HIV/AIDS, but he is a sad man. He is in despair because there is a grand conspiracy behind the so-called search for HIV/AIDS cure. He contends that the Nigerian government is being led by the nose by Western powers and the United States of America (USA) in believing that the dreaded disease cannot be cured.

If not, why has the government refused to accept my claims that I have a cure? He asks. He spoke extensively with Daily Sun about his HIV/AIDS cure and the controversy on whether the disease is curable or not.

Abdulahi, a holder of M.Sc Immunology was unequivocal in his assertion that cure for HIV/AIDS is possible.
"But is the US interested?", he asks sadly. In 1998, we had 25 patients, who were treated between August and November with Winniecure. The people concerned were close friends and relations with known locations. In November 2005, we did the viral load for the 25 persons, and 20 were viral negative, two had viral rebound, one was 250, the other was 230 copies of the virus, three had invalid results.

In the USA, if viral load is not more than 100,000, there will be no ARV administration. Indifference really, It is true that the former governments were not interested in what we are saying about the treatment or cure for HIV/AIDS. It is as if the Federal Government was being controlled and being lured by the Western powers, especially the USA government. All the Anti-Retroviral (ARV) drugs are manufactured by the USA, and they visually control the issues on HIV/AIDS, including distribution of condoms and other campaigns on HIV/AIDS. And most of the non-governmental agencies (NGOs) are initiated and controlled by the Americans, talk of USAID, GHAIN, and the rest of them. And the money they are pushing here is to sustain the campaign by the NGOs that there is no known cure.

They make sure the campaign gets down to the grassroots, and the NGOs in collaboration with government agencies control the campaign. The past government of President Olusegun Obasanjo was not interested in the cure. In July, 2000 after the National Assembly Public Hearing on HIV/AIDS, only myself and Dr Abalaka were recommended, our drugs were recommended for verification. The US government sent a five-man delegation led by Hon. Jim McDemott, from the Congressional Task-force on HIV/AIDS to the public hearing and they also met with me and Dr Abalaka.

When we showed them what we were doing, they expressed satisfaction. But we parted ways when I refused their offer that I emigrate to the US. Even the money that was released for clinical trials by the National Assembly was not extended to us. After the National Assembly Public Hearing they said they have set up a Presidential Committee, and when we met with the Committee, members said that there was no financial backing for out project and since then, nothing has happened. What do we mean by the cure that we have been heralding since 1998?

To me, there is no disease that has no cure and to many Nigerians, especially those who read the holy books such as the Bible and Holy Koran know there is no disease without a cure. And before that disease comes out, God must have revealed the cure to somebody. That is what we are saying that HIV is curable. We have shown some people who had tested positive to HIV and after our medication, they become negative. The people have come out to testify in the media, but nobody takes us serious. I say, the past government was not interested in seeking the cure for HIV/AIDS because here at the Winners Medical Diagnostic and Research Institute, Garki II Abuja, its about four kilometers to the office of the Minister of Health, so there is no information that they want about what we are doing that they cannot access.

Winniecure Dr Jacob Abdulahi since 1998 has maintained that he has discovered the cure for HIV/AIDS. He explains that HIV is an immunological disease which targets immune cells. According to him, there is a principle we drafted eight years ago which is used in treating some virus induced incurable disease and it is called: immuno-therapy. We looked at the architecture of the body. The body is meant to cure itself, drugs do not cure per see, but only reduces bacterial, parasitic, fungal or viral load within the system after which the body takes over the healing process. When a person is infected by HIV, the immune cells are attacked, but the infected cells appear normal as it does not die immediately. It begins to replicate within the infected cells preparatory to taking over other cells on liberation from that infected cell. This continues until more cells are attacked.

At infection, a proteinous material known as histo-compatibility complex appears on the surface of the cell, to indicate or serve as a marker to the cyto-toxic cells or natural killer cells known as CD8 for it to be destroyed. The destroyed infected cells are mopped out of the body system through a process called phagocytosis. What Winniecure does, is to empower the natural killer or cyto-toxic cells to recognize and kill the infected cells which contain HIV virus and then remove them from the body. Winniecure has cytokines and chemokines. Cytokines help the natural killer cells to recognize infected cells. Chemokines help to mobilize the natural killer cells to the infected sites. The body needs additional help to act in this manner and Winniecure provides that help.

This is a workable principle to cure HIV. The body must recognize which is part of itself and which is not. Auto immunity will set in when the body cannot recognize self. When drugs cause this to set in, we call it drug reaction. Winniecure is a drug of nature.
We have 80% cure rate, ordinarily, we have about 95% success rate. We have 80% cure rate and 95% success rate, and that is why critics, government, nobody can stop us based on fallacy, we have records, we can be proved right or wrong. Its a big deception to infer that the Western powers and the US fund our local NGOs to sustain the campaign against HIV/AIDS. Its our government that imports the ARV. What the West does is to give with the left hand and take back with the right. All they are doing is to keep their economy buoyant. The NGOs campaign that people should go on ARV because it is the only hope for people with HIV. I do not know in monetary terms the amount involved, but it is one big business.

In those days, they were buying generic ARV from India until they discovered that it is not comparable to the one made by the parent company, Pfizer in the USA . It is a business in its entirety, all over the world. I was recently in France to meet with some companies that were interested in obtaining exclusive right to distribute our drug in Europe or buy the patent for the drug. Winnicure has a cure rate of over 80%, and there is not even a cure rate of one per cent anywhere in the world. For the past eight years, we have been saying that we have a cure for HIV/AIDS, but our government has not taken interest to put the claims to test or prove whether it is true or not. Killer drug really, ARV is a killer drug, it is highly toxic.

About two months ago, South Africa outright rejected ARV and they gave Pfizer three months to defend what they claim that the drug is doing vis-a-vis what they have seen from the test they did on those taking ARV. It is either the liver is almost completely damaged by the drugs whereas they were not having any liver problem before they started taking ARV or the kidney is almost gone whereas from the baseline tests they did, they had no kidney problem before they started taking the drug. ARV is just like ogogoro, or kai-kai, the person taking it feels he is very strong, whereas if you look at the lung and liver, the liver is degenerating, they are emanciating, but they still feel they are normal.

Looking at the other internal parameters, it is usually abnormal. It is only Nigeria that is not ready to say or accept the truth. If you take ARV for 20 years, it cannot reverse a person’s HIV status, and the ARV cannot be administered on people still having their immunity intact. If the immune system is still functioning, ARV can not be administered. The minimum immune level is 460, it can be up to 1,450, so between 460 to 1,400, ARV will not be administered, even at the minimum CD4 count of about 250 cells/ul, it will not be given. ARV is given when the CD4 is less than 200. The reason is that the person must get to the level of having AIDS before the drug is administered.

About 75% of People Living With HIV (PLWH) are not qualified to take ARV, some until five years later. Only about 25% could be qualified to take ARV. But in their campaign, as if anybody with HIV can take ARV, but it is not automatic. The reason is because of the side effects. Not every PLWH can take it. ARV is a drug taken for life, when you start, you do not stop, and if you begin taking it by 6p.m, subsequently, you must take it at 6p.m not 6.30p.m. The drug is given almost at the point of death, when someone’s immunity is battered and the person is beginning to manifest symptoms of AIDS. Therefore, if it kills that person because of the side effects, the toxicity level, they have not done anything bad. But if it prolongs the person’s life, fine.

They have achieved their aims. That is the reason they give at low CD4 count, and majority of PLWH are not on ARV. The essence of what we are saying is that we have a solution, ARV is not a solution, it is only to help those who are about to die. The PLWH who are not put on ARV are simply told to go and live positively, or to go and take a good diet. They are only campaigning that it is advantageous to know your HIV status so that you will not infect others. But about 80 % of PLWH will not be qualified to take ARV till four-five years later. Those who testify that they have been taking ARV and are okay are those who have eaten deep into the money given by the foreign NGOs, they have access to these funds.

Some of them have no jobs, no means of livelihood, I know some of them. Concluding, Abdulahi, who did a stint at the National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development (NIPRD) said that he had already begun talks with the Umaru Yar’Adua’s administration through the health ministry and expressed hope that Mr President’s scientific background, his preference for rule of law and sincerity will help advance his scientific quest and pursuits and possibly ensure that Nigeria emerges as the nation which discovered the cure for HIV/AIDS.

This is the restart of cultism in Port Harcourt. In as much as I don't support the way Amaechi was removed by PDP, his hands are also not clean 'cos it was he and Odili that looted the state and armed the cultists.

Even when it's known that Bill Gates is a wealthy man. It still needs to be documented, hence the letter from his bank as is the practice when other people also apply for Nigerian visa.

"When Bill Gates applied for a visa for a recent trip to Nigeria, his paperwork hit a snag. The Nigerian government required proof that the billionaire chairman of Microsoft (MSFT) would not stay in the country and become a drain on Nigeria's social services. The company helping him with his application, travel document expediter CIBT, obtained a letter from Gates' bank that reassured the Nigerian authorities, and the visa was approved."

According to the above source, it was just a requirement that Gates or his agents did not provide and when they did that the visa was approved. So why all these noise about? It does not matter who is involved, visa application to nigeria must follow due process and be properly documented. It is just a requirement that is applicable also in so many other countries and I don't think Mr. Gates is offended in anyway about it.

Don't forget also that the immigartion official can lose his or her job for accepting improper or incomplete visa application not minding that its Bill gates that is involved. Infact, it might even be suggested that the official took bribe from Bill Gates to process the incomplete visa application.

Rhemi:


About This issue, i think u guys should know the basis and objective of why Covenant University is doing it before misyarning. Some people don't even know whether if its when entering the school or leaving.

This is not the point. the policy is flawed.

Rhemi:

If u don't like the school then free it. everyone knows the rules before entering so you either follow it or leave it.

are u implying that people who don't like their life conditions, have the option of commiting suicide?

What? what is this? is this true?

I have a brother who is a Pastor in that church. Right now, I feel like giving him a punch in the face.

omg, i'm pissed.

Wow! What a loss!
May The Almighty grant him joyful activity in the beyond.

, as a child then, growing up in Enugu, Ekene Dili Chukwu or SSS (Slow, Steady and Safe) as we started calling it, was a household name. Whenever we see big buses, we start shouting the name. He pioneered the nigerian road transport system and remained so steadfast in the business even when many others who came after him left the scene due to harsh economic realities.

May God Bless this Nigerian's Soul!

The pic of that little girl on a canoe is amazing. I love it! I wish i will have the opportunity of paying the little girl for using her picture as my desktop wallpaper. It looks very beautiful.

I must commend president YDA first of all.

For those of us, including the NLC, who are asking how and when he made the money. I think for YDA to give us the chance to ask those questions is a good thing and commendable. None of us since May 29th cared to ask such questions until Yesterday. Now we have the questions, we are seeking for answers and I believe we will get the answers. Thanks to YDA for the chance to ask the questions and now we need the answers though personally I would say most of the answers are contained in the declaration.

The senate should speed up on this FOI bill. Its one of the very effective ways of checking corruption. And one wonders why OBJ didn't sign the bill when it was passed in the last senate.

God Bless Nigeria!
