MY COMMUNITY
I come from Umunede, a conspicuous town in Ika Nation,Delta state,Nigeria with over a population of 22,611 (as at over 1991 Natuonal Population Census Figure). Umunede is no longer the traditional society it was one hundred years ago, when it was controlled and governed by ancestral spirits and cultural legends which underlined a mystical convertism in all espects of the community life. This is because between the past and the present is the phenomenon of change. The problem with change in any human community is that ot usually affects the identity and way of life of the people, not just human both animals and plants. And since development involves change, then we have a socio-cultural problem on our hands because the bewildering results induced by developmental transformations make development and constancy incompatible

Lufthansa Heist
In the year 1978, on December 11th, a significant event unfolded at the Lufthansa Storage Facility located at the airport in the United States. Two individuals had planned a daring heist, and this is their story. At the heart of this story is Louis Werner, an airport worker who was familiar with the operations at the Lufthansa facility. Louis had a close friend named Peter, and together, they were facing financial difficulties due to their gambling habits. Desperate for a way out, they devised a plan to steal valuable items stored at the facility, including money, jewelry, and other expensive items. Their plan revolved around Louis' insider knowledge of the facility's operations. Lufthansa Airlines would transport valuables to other countries, and Louis knew when and where these items were stored. He saw an opportunity to organize a heist and promised Peter a share of the loot. However, when Peter saw the plan, he deemed it poorly executed and risky, refusing to participate. Undeterred by Peter's reluctance and burdened by his debt to a menacing creditor named Martin Krugman, Louis pressed on with the plan. He sought out dangerous criminals to execute the heist successfully. Louis had connections to an associate of Jimmy Burke, a feared figure within the Lucchese Crime Family, one of the powerful crime families ruling the era. Louis approached Mr. Krugman, seeking his assistance in executing the plan. Krugman, intrigued by the prospect of a lucrative heist, agreed to provide guidance and support. The plan involved accessing the Lufthansa storage area, where returned dollars from foreign banks were stored. Louis would facilitate access to the facility, and the thieves would make off with the money. Krugman wasted no time in involving the Lucchese Crime Family, led by Jimmy Burke. Jimmy was known for his meticulous planning and ruthless execution of criminal operations. A meeting was convened, and Louis provided critical information about the facility, including entry points, alarm systems, and the locations of valuables. With the plan meticulously laid out, the date for the heist was set: December 11, 1978. The gang was composed of six robbers who would enter the facility and execute the heist. Jimmy Burke's son and a man named Edwards played supporting roles. Jimmy's son would follow the robbers in another vehicle, acting as a distraction if needed, while Edwards was tasked with disposing of the getaway van after the heist. On the fateful night, at 3:30 am, the six robbers arrived at the airport in a van. Four of them entered the building using Louis' information, while two remained in the van. However, their presence outside the facility attracted the attention of airport workers. When one worker approached them, they sensed danger and violently subdued him, ultimately taking him hostage. Meanwhile, the four inside the facility located the employees and took them hostage as well. They learned the whereabouts of the security guard and found him patrolling the area. After convincing the guard to cooperate, they disabled the alarm system and accessed the storage area.
