WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Asaba – Fresh facts emerging from Tuesday’s bank robbery at Ogwashi-Uku, Delta State, showed that apart from the robbers carting away over N28 million, they also damaged the police station adjacent to the bank.

Investigations revealed that the rampaging robbers, first overran the police station where they held the officers hostage while the operation lasted, damaging several cars parked in front of the station. Window panes and other structures were also destroyed in the Police station.

State Police Command’s spokesman, Mr. Charles Muka told our reporter yesterday, “actually they (robbers) attacked us, shooting sporadically, damaging cars although I have not gone there to see the extent of damage at the station.”

It was also gathered that the woman who was killed by a stray bullet was a shop owner near the scene of the robbery incident.

Several bank staff and customers wounded in the bloody encounter were seen receiving treatment at the Federal Medical Centre, FMC, Asaba.

The robbers raided one of the first generation banks armed to the teeth with sophisticated weapons.
