Pastor Advice Nigerians To "Emulate Ibori" At His Birthday Thanksgiving by AllRoundGist: 9:19am On Aug 06, 2013 |
I wonder why Nigerians continue to celebrate 'lootocracy'. They honour looters, terrorists, militants, assassins etc. Uhm...only Nigerians can make a mad man look sane and make a sane man look mad. If he were to be a common criminal, no one would want to associate with him, but now that he is a rich criminal, everyone want to be recognized with him. Nigeria my beloved country! The land where mad men direct traffic and the supposedly sane people follow obediently....Is there really any hope for this country? On Sunday 4th August 2013, the people of Oghara in Delta State celebrated their former governor in grand style on his 55th birthday. Although, the ex governor, James Onanefe Ibori, is currently serving his jail terms in a London prison for fraud, his admirers and political associates gathered to celebrate him. The celebration started with a Thanksgiving service at the Baptist Church, where the pastor, Rev Iweh Godspower, challenged the congregation to emulate Ibori. While the Rev was preaching, he asked: "What is that aspect of ibori's personality that could attract such mammoth crowd which filled the church and overflows outside?" He answered his own question by saying: "It is given that Ibori is a huge success, but that is not why all of you have left your homes and different towns to be in Oghara today; even though the man you have come to celebrate may never know the individuals that have come to do him honour. You have come to Ogahara today because Ibori is a man who after climbing high in the social, political and economical ladders of Nigeria, he did not seize and throw away the ladders in the way most Nigerian big men usually do; he made the ladder available for others to climb up too. And even when some people are too weak to make good use of that ladder, he helped pull them up. That is why you are here today. Never forget that and you go and do likewise; help others to climb up the ladders of life and love." The crowd applauded him and others bellowed Ibori's nickname "Odidigborigbo of Africa." The three days celebration ends today with a topflight novelty football match at the Oghara Township Stadium. http://www.mjemagazine.com/emulate-james-ibori-pastor-advice-nigerians/ http://www.allaroundgist.com/2013/08/emulate-ibori-pastor-advice-nigerians.html#more 5 Likes |

Well, Let me quote a popular saying on Nairaland Religious/Celebrities/Romance/Family sections..
Meaning, if you know you've stolen a piece of meat before from your mama's pot, you have no right to question anyone that steals N100billion from your country's account. If you have a gf, then you have no right to question a Nigerian slut that r a p ed a South African guy on a reality show.. If you know you once killed a ANT, then you should smile when a hired killer points a rifle at your skull.. Thats the law of gullible and bigoted nairalanders... So who are we to judge Thief Ibori and the most reverend Papa, the Man of God? We are not God, y'all know..¿ 19 Likes |

Is not that bad as some who are moving freely and even serving in govt now but then nija is in a mess. But I think Ibori family are trying to prove a point to GEJ and his godfather edwin clark. I hope by the time he comes back2nija he will be going on a thank u visit just like Al-mustapha |

Don't blame the pastor, Blame the hunger fueling the stupidity he spewed out infront of the said mammoth crowd at the birthday celebration. A message like would probably earn him around $50,000 thank-you-sir-we-are-grateful-for-your-warm-message-gift. The kind the failing pastor turned politician rejected in Aso-rock. In clime sanes, this pastor should be investigated, tried and thrown shamelessly out of the ministerial casok. Big shame on him! His mate across the north too, is currently being celebrated by every Northern diginitary. Shameless folks who doesn't want the progess of the nation. BOTTOMLINE: Like Lagabja said earlier so many mumu's in Mumudom. Another mumu seeking his political severage fund! Biko, wetem oompa and peppersoup Looks away 2 Likes |
