30 Nigerians deported

More than 30 Nigerian nationals were deported from Ireland on Thursday night on a flight to Lagos. The charter flight landed in Dublin carrying 45 deportees from the United Kingdom and seven from Switzerland and Germany before leaving for the Nigerian commercial city.


Irish Times reported on Friday that The Irish Refugee Council has called for one of the deportees to be allowed to return to Ireland to care for her two young sons, who were born in Dublin and have Irish citizenship.

The 32-year-old woman, who had been living in Mosney, Co Meath, with the children, aged 2½ and nine months, was deported after her application for asylum was denied.

The children's father, a Nigerian (41), has been in Ireland for 11 years and holds an Irish passport. He told The Irish Times that he wanted the woman to be allowed to return to care for the children, who will live with him in the interim. "They need their mother," he said.

The children's parents are not married.

A spokeswoman for the Irish Refugee Council said the youngest boy is still being breast-fed. She called for the children's mother to be allowed to return to Ireland immediately "on humanitarian grounds."

The Residents Against Racism group protested outside the Garda National Immigration Bureau in Dublin on Thursday afternoon. Spokeswoman Rosanna Flynn claimed the deportations were "handled in an extremely heavy way."

The Garda deported 56 Nigerian nationals from Ireland on December 12, 2008.

WHAT ROLE ARE YOU PLAYING?

Life is stage and we are all actors in it.personally i think humans are like this.......

1. 50%: the level at which we know ourselves.


2. 30%: the level at which friends,closed 1s and colleagues know us.


3. 10%: the level at which parents,leaders and people we look up to and respect know us.


4. 10%: the dark side of each man.this remains unknown to everyone and is shown occasionally by love,hatred,lust,desires.its the unknown world, and mind.its the dark places.

Generally,humans act differently around different people, issues, occasions and events.Every one does.No one knows each other themselves completely,cos our thoughts are hidden, is so dynamic, and constantly changes.
No doubt we are all self conscious, am just the first to admit it.

Senate passes Obama's economic recovery plan

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama's economic recovery plan has passed the Senate and is on its way to difficult House-Senate negotiations. Just three Republicans helped pass the plan on a 61-37 vote and they're already signaling they'll play hardball to preserve more than $108 billion in spending cuts made last week in Senate dealmaking. Obama wants to restore cuts in funds for school construction jobs and help for cash-starved states.
Those cuts are among the major differences between the $819 billion House version of Obama's plan and a Senate bill costing $838 billion. Obama has warned of a deepening economic crisis if Congress fails to act. He wants a bill completed by the weekend
