Is The Nigerian National Assembly Above The Law? by Caringpro(f): 11:15am On Aug 25, 2010
Breaking laws in this country is no longer news because most of our politicians see it as a way of getting through their dirty games but what really baffles one is when they go ALL out to spend our limited resources without any second thought. The issue of their illegal allowances shouldn't be left just like their other atrocities.

IF YOU ARE LEFT BEHIND AFTER THE RAPTURE, WHO WILL YOU BLAMEMy dear brethren, I think its high time you hear THE TRUIH. Though it is bitter, but it still has to be said. Every day you spend on earth is gradually bringing closer to the RAPTURE. So many travelers {Christians} have left the path that leads to eternity{heaven} but I urge you to keep moving because the journey will soon be over, where prizes will be given, as well as punishments. Jesus said that I should tell you that many of him take him and his word for granted. He said that he is coming very soon and that if you are left behind, you must dance to the rhythm of Gods music{his wrath}. THAT IS THE DAY OF THE LORD [ISIAH 13:6-16, ZEPHANIAN 1:14-18, JOEL 2:1-1-32] God himself will pour his wrath{anger} on everybody that are going to be left behind. WHO CAN STAND THE WRATH OF GOD? Jesus said I should tell you stop deceiving yourself by saying that no man on earth is perfect and living without sin. he said that I should tell you that NO MAN THAT HAS SIN IN HIM AND DIES WILL EVER ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD{HEAVEN}.FOR HEAVEN IS A PURE AND PERFECT PLACE, AND NO MAN STILL IN SINN WILL EVER HAVE HIS PLACE THERE. He said I should tell you THAT HIS GRACE CAN NEVER SAVE YOU{MAKE YOU ENTER HEAVEN} HIS GRACE CAN ONLY PUT YOU IN THE RIGHT WAY.NO MAN STILL LIVING IN SIN WILL BE PARTURED WHEN JESUS COMES,FOR CHRIST WILL ONLY COME FOR THOSE THAT ARE PREPARED,HE WILL NOT COME FOR THOSE THAT ARE PREPARING. Believe and accept this HIDDEN THRUT and save you precious soul from HELL, or doubt and reject it and be lost forever in HELL. BE WISE

Surely, these bad guyses need a hard knock for bleeding the our dear country. I hope the only option is for the masses to rise up and put a stop to this act by
mobilising a well corrdinated and articulated media campaign against their action and organising public rallies and demonstrations to ignite the appropriate authorities to take action. Again, they brought in the issue of state creation which is borne out of greed and selfishness. Most of them pushing for state creation harbour the ill intention of becoming political leaders of those states for life. e.g. David Smack, for how has the creation of states right from the time of Gen. Gowon helped to reduce poverty, unemployment, crime etc and improve power, water supply and rural infrastructure generally. I pray for our country to be guided by the fear of GOD especially as we are entering yet another transition. I rest my case.

[size=18pt]No one is above the law.  Only, in Nigeria and other undemocratic countries that people think they can get away with murder but, do they really? They can get away from the wrath of man but they can not get away from the wrath of God and, that is absolute!!! [/size]
Re: Is The Nigerian National Assembly Above The Law? by Ayowumie(m): 3:21pm On Aug 25, 2010
In theory, the lawmakers are not meant to be above the law but as we have seen since the inception of democratic dispensation, our lawmakers are above the law.
You wouldn't need to be surprised, the Marxian perspective say "Law and its creation reflect the marginal imbalance of an "unjust" society in which the rich and the powerful make laws to perpetuate their leadership positions at the expense of the masses" Laws are hence made as a repressive mechanism through which injustice is portrayed in an "unjust" nation.
The only solution to Nigerian problem is if the masses could develop what Marx called"praxis or concrete action". This happens when the people realise themselves within the existing systems of their exploitation and they therefore attain class consciousness. It is only through this, that the much talked about people's revolution can occur.

GOD BLESS NIGERIA
GOD CURSE AND PUNISH THE NIGERIAN TREASURY LOOTERS

They are not above the law. But it is a pity that the law is the jackass of the rulers in our cleptocracy.

If we were in a civilized nation, majority of the members of the National Assembly would have been indicted for their electoral malpractices, because they rigged their way into the corridors of power.
