The Sacrificial Lamb; Gay People In Most Countries Faces This

I cried as I watched this video. I cried, not just for the disruptedly stolen life of a promising and blossoming life of the innocent victim, no; I CRIED FOR MYSELF. That he, lying there, could be me. Because, that young man has gone through the pain I and many others alike, because of our sexuality, are at risk of going through in many countries, including mine, Nigeria. But WE SHALL FIGHT and not die in silence.



Rest in gracious peace Makwan; good night dear star. On December 4 2009, it will be 2 years since your fatal end. Although you rest painless now, we have not forgotten. That wound on your neck - our neck - is still fresh; and the pain still bites us. We will remember forever and we will not stop until that injury is cured. We will not stop until the hazard is totally removed. But farther above that, we will not STOP until the entire threat is wiped. Peace be with you.

Missing People Should Give Us All A Concern

Yesterday in the electronic post, I received a request/information about a missing 30year old man. What is so frightening about it is that he is exactly my age. Yet, the story surrounding his disappearance shows he was just not expected to go missing; it then could have been me.

But John Regan, Originally from Oker, Matlock Derbyshire, and living in Primrose Hill London, has not been seen since midnight Wednesday 18th November 2009 (The night of the France V Ireland Football match). He was seen outside Bar Tok, Camden, London, NW1 heading in the direction of Camden at approximately 12.15am. John was last seen (on CCTV) at 1:15am in the early hours of Thursday morning at Camden Stables Markets, heading through Camden Lock West Yard (Underneath Lockside lounge) where he turned right walking by the canal towards Primrose Hill.

At the time of his disappearance, John was wearing the

Is The Focus Of Nigeria Lawyers Robust Without Justice For LGBT People?

Beginning Monday 30^th November to Friday 4^th December, the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) will arrive on a trade mission visit to The Law Society of England and Wales, in what will be the first of its kind. That is a feat to reach for both and I welcome such partnership.

But then, thoughts whirl in my head; where is the similarity? What is the focus? What lessons could they learn from each other? And above all, is justice on same balance in these

How Many More Treaty(ies) Before An EU State?

So we all listened and waited for the new development of the unstructured child; EU. And finally, the long-awaited, long-debated, long-considered and much fought-over post of President of the European Union was decided and announced within less than 4-hours of chat among the 27 qualified countries.

Among all the candidates – although, it seems due to fear of failure, most of them refused to go public – the British proposed candidate, Tony Blair

Transcript of the Queen’s Speech at Opening of Parliament Today

"My government's overriding priority is to ensure sustained growth to deliver a fair and prosperous economy for families and businesses, as the British economy recovers from the global economic downturn. By the active creation of jobs, restructuring the financial sector, strengthening the national infrastructure and providing responsible investment, my government will foster growth and employment.

My government will also strengthen key public services, through ensuring that individual entitlements guarantee good services, and will work to build trust in democratic institutions.

America: Now Waiting For The Real Change?

Now see where we are? Her Lordess, Sarah Palin claims she inspired Barack Obama's 'change'. How so unclear can Palin be? But as she rightly said in her new book (Going Rogue: An American Life) – which no one should, not even for charity shop price buy unless they are brain-dead – she surely was "change when change wasn't

Nick Clegg’s Libertine Incessancy

Among all things that Nick Clegg could do to draw attention and claim to be proactive (if ever) or useful or modest, attacking the monarch in the name of parliament reform is quite boring and shameful.

Mr. Clegg's proposal smacks of busy-body and lack of opinion. British reputation still

Mock Death Of Venice

Horrendous!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8360877.stm

But hang on; are they concerned that the population of the city has dwindled from Hundreds of Thousands to a few clusters? Pity! I thought that is what Europe in general wants anyway... goodluck with the mock funeral and hope it doesnt become a real cemetary of itself sooner than later.

(mock) RIP Venice

The Sins Of The Fathers - Repulsive

This video is one of the worst and heretical thing I have seen any one produced. It erodes whatever respect that was left in me about this hoola-balo called climate change. I completely disgust, if not abhor it.

How could anyone with any sense have made this. It sums like the Bible phrase: 'the sins of

Climate Change Or Character Change?

I have always thought I was alone. But no, you are never alone, regardless of how odd or unusual or awkward.

So the result of a poll today indicated that more than half of the population doesn't believe climate change is caused by man; super!

But anyway, while I think it is less man-made, I still believe that human beings can

Is Politics A Snare? Bercow Can Answer

Earlier this year, the Telegraph laid their hand on something that seemed a treasure; MPs Expenses. They used it; and the result was a parade of distancing from the MPs by the public. Many of us sprang to our feet and chastised them. We all claimed how good we would have been if we were in their position or how appalling they were,

Labour On Way To Rebound

What makes it even more resounding is the fact that the most political analysts and watchers refuse to accept that Labour will pull it. An article on BBC News website actually opened with the following sentence: "People here would vote for a donkey if it was next to the Labour box on the slip." People didn't anyway.

The report, by Laura Kuenssberg went on to say that "The Glasgow North East by-election

London Jazz Festival Features Roberto Fonseca

Since I heard about the London Jazz Festival, I have been keeping my eyes peeled to see what the catch will be. And then, as the whirlwind gathers speed, Roberta Fonseca is among the celebrated artist and that makes it a great Jazz Festival.
Roberta is very talented. What you will like most is the ingenuity of his piano wizardry. His fingers are so fluid

The SUN Against Labour

Well; that The SUN Newspaper is politically against the Labour Party is no more news. What is news however is how they try to achieve that objective. Their first assumed blow was rather not a blow but a declaration of the fight...
And since that announcement in September, their campaign has been one of smear targeted

At Long Last; Adieu London Lite & RIP London Paper

In 2006, a wave like an epidemic took over the hectic but nice evening rush of Londoners. In just a passing of the sun, the landscape was deformed by unwanted papers. From the roadside to underground platforms, inside buses to train seats, we were like perishing specie attacked by a swarm of locusts.

This was not just annoying, it was blatantly insidious. Walking the streets from 3pm was
