Hmmm, well may God take control. Now that boko haram hit abuja after the long peace, evryone is suddenly bck to the reality of their existence. Boko has been hiting the north, some we hear of, some quietly shut out of the public and the govt hv bin vry sluggish abt this evil act wasting the lives of men. Now they hv hit abj mayb the govt wld wake up. We hv tolerated boko haram enuf, this evil jst hv to end.

I think it's time to put the old selfish and wicked politics aside; we are not going to survive this war as a nation if we don't. The issue of community policing and state police must be given urgency. Today's happening clearly shows again that we got it wrong long time ago, hence, the security agencies are totally ill prepared for the current situation.

That's a difficult ask, how are people supposed to get to work? Avoiding crowds isn't really easy especially in Abuja.

Conflicting figures from the press.
Casualty no is up to 500.
Yanyan park is the biggest and busiest in Nigeria.

AOI said...

And yes, the Bornu state governor was right - this is a complete failure of previous years of greedy and purposeless leadership especially by a few northern thieves. Unfortunately, the present government seems to be suffering from this same purposelessness by their system denial of the truth.

ALL THESE BOMBINGS ARE THE HANDWORK OF THOSE NORTHERN MAFIA AND MURDERERS AND CRIMINALS MASQUERADING AS POLITICIANS AND LEADERS. THEY KNOW NIGERIANS AND THE WORLD WILL NOT TOLERATE THEIR MILITARY COUPS HENCE THEIR SABOTAGE OF GEJ's ADMINISTRATION. EL TUFAI, ATIKU, BUHARI & CO, THE BLOOD OF THOSE KILLED ARE FOREVER ON YOUR HEADS AND YOUR CHILDREN'S' HEAD, FOREVER. NORTHERN LEADERS ARE TRAITORS AND TOO TRIBALISTIC. THEY HAVE SHOWN THEIR TRUE COLOURS. ITS BEST NORTHERN NIGERIA BREAKAWAY, PISS OFF AND STOP SPONGING OFF THE REST OF THE COUNTRY AND KILLING OUR PEOPLE. ITS ABOUT TIME THE FULL POWER OF SSS, EFFCC AND THE NIGERIAN ARMY IS UNLEASHED ON THOSE CRIMINALS FROM THE NORTH, INCLUDING THAT EL ROTTEN RUFAI, ATIKU, BUHARI, IBB, AND THE REST REST THAT ARE SABOTAGING GOODLUCK JONATHAN'S ADMINISTRATION, KILLING PEOPLE, DESTROYING NIGERIAN ECONOMY AND HOLDING NIGERIA HOSTAGE. ITS ABOUT TIME TO DEPORT ALL SAUDIS, IRANIANS, PAKISTANIS, EGYPTIANS AND LEBANESE. NIGERIA IS NOT MECCA. NIGERIA IS NOT AFGHANISTAN. NIGERIA IS NOT PAKISTAN. THE KILLINGS AND DESTRUCTION MUST STOP. HEZBOLLAH, IRAN AND SAUDI ARABIA MUST STOP DESTABILISING NIGERIA, GET OUT OF NIGERIA AND STOP TURNING TURNING NIGERIA INTO A BATTLE GROUND. NIGERIA IS NOT AND WILL NEVER BE AN ISLAMIC STATE. THE NORTH ARE FIGHTING A BATTLE THEY CAN NEVER WIN. THE DAYS OF (CORRUPT AND ISLAMIC) NORTHERN DOMINATION IS OVER.

Looking at the picture of the patient lying on the bed with a drip in his arm.
The drip is placed flat on the bed while his arm is actually on a higher level than the drip.Can someone tell me why that drip is not on a stand and what law of physics is making the fluid flow without gravity??.

Terrorist killings are not a problem for Nigeria. The greatest, most urgent problem facing Nigeria is gay marriage. Once you put gays into jail, Nigeria will be perfect. Here is a country literally going up in flames, with challenges to human existence all around us, and we spent valuable time in passing an anti-gay law. I wonder if we don't have the leadership we deserve. As I said, our country is now perfect as we can jail or kill the gays. Such stupidity.
