No thing good (even once) has ever come out from that pig-in-human-flesh's mouth..if you u no sabi common sense talk why u no dey keep that recycle-bin u called mouth shut...

It's becoming clearer to the Nigerian public that the PDP is one of the manifold problems that we must not allow to survive for the next four years. Since they kicked off their campaigns there hasn't been a statement of promise coming from instead they had busied themselves whipping up both religious and ethnic sentiments. Unknown to them that sentiments and emotions have no place in today's politics. The jobless criminals in creeks are threatening to set this country ablaze if Nigerians refused to send Jonathan back to Aso Rock. It will only be wise for them to start now because we already know what the outcome of the Presidential Election would be. Change is on the horizon.

This VP is more clueless thaan I had thought...

Nigerians, when do we the citizenry come out and stand against these people? they do not really recognize us, they only come to us when it's election time, we should all have a voice in Lagos, a voice in abia, a voice in ibadan, a voice in bauchi, a voice in benin, a blog where we all stand speak about our dislike and distaste for any person in a place of power and have our media houses tell the world what Nigerians say, how we feel, we are too quiet, always calling on God and never standing for change. my piece.

That Sambo, and his clueless boss need to be kicked out come feb 14th

Politicials should not be sentimental about religious,tribal and zone political zone, we need somebody who will help us curb this anomally in our great nation but not present government because they have failed us and we need positive change

mumu let google help u with that question?ape

.......tell your messiah to carry google with him when he is campaigning, he needs it more than i do, he's the one that lacks what to say.......as for you, your old man really did the world a deservice not flushing that fluid that resulted from his frequent romps with the neighbourhood inhouse who.re down a pit latrine. . . . . Don't ever call me 'ape' again.

I knew about Sambo's islamists tendencies even before he became a Governor

jameseva:



Despite this speech being careless and uncalled for, it doesnt make sambo or pdp automatic sponsors of bokoharam. it will take more than this to convince me of such.

I totally condemn inflammatory/incendiary speeches.

It has to be said that both major parties are equally culpable.
It is therefore highly disingenuous of Sahara Reporters, an unabashedly partisan online platform to just pick on a statement credited to VP Sambo where similar statements are rife in this political season.

I suspect that the sponsors of this article are still smarting from the turnout of events during the PDP Jigawa rally.

: seriously

NOBODY CAN PLAY GOD

Where are d 'jonathanians' on NL...let's hear your views on d cluelessness of your master's pet...smh.God help us.

See me see trouble o,y dis mumu people dey spoil structure wey we don build finish,which one b osinbajo and 5000 churches,Sambo think say if him talk like that all the boko haram north go pity vote GEJ,who beg and pay sambo to misyarn.Abeg make una tell if him no get anything to talk during campaign,make him shut his mouth and gape stupidly at the crowd with fake smile.

Are we sure this people aren't campaigning for their fellow northerner? Coz if truly this guy is an architect that he claimed to be, he shouldn't have spoken like dumbo.

gonzaga:
Moderator, I request that the OP should be sanctioned for passing false information capable of causing chaos. And if what I am about to say is found to be wrong, I should be banned for life from this forum.

What Sambo said was that God purposely created us as Muslims and Christians to live together. He then went on to mention certain countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan and co that are predominantly Muslim.

To buttress this point, he said even the presidential candidate of APC has chosen a Christian that controls over 5,000 churches as running mate. This was to show that Christians and Muslims had always worked together.

He further sighted instances where even military leaders had Christian deputies and all. The message ended with a note of caution that; those currently using religion to divide the people should not be listened to.

Nowhere did Sambo say that because the man has 5,000 churches, they should not vote for them.

This claim by the OP is blatantly false, malicious, sinister and out to cause chaos.

That's great explanation! The OP is trying to mislead Nigerians and other well wishers of our country.

Krak:
You see what I am saying?

They have forgotten Rwanda. These politicians will create a storm that they cannot control.

you are very correct. Nigerian politicians are almost the same...the feelings of the people to them is not important, whatever it takes to win is important to them. May God help us.

This has to stop. Ethno-religious politicking should be condemned by all stakeholders in Nigeria.

Any one who can log in to this site and read have no excuse to be swayed by devilish religious propaganda that can incite violence..

The religion of the president will not put food on our table, it will not assure stable power supply in our houses, it will not guarantee public hospitals will be equipped, e.t.c Vote a candidate whose choice you arrived at,after removing your religious or tribal spectacle.

Why PDP go fall my hands with such statement from that shoe maker? Well I'm not surprised with that from a northerner. Buhari go still talk the same or worse tomorrow.

So you did not listen Sule Lamido of Jigawa State the other day. On national TV. I wonder what other video evidence can be more than that. Do you also know that you can Lynched for publicly showing your support for Gej in northern Nigeria? I am sure you know these things. You are just feigning oblivion. But no stress. We are watching and most importantly, God is watching. It is only the will of God that will be enthroned in Nigeria. No matter the machinations and manipulations of detractors...Only HIS will.

coogar:


can you provide a video evidence regarding this? don't just pull out conjectures from the air. sambo was caught on camera using religion divide nigerians.

Acidosis:
In a Country where all Muslims are against the President; I dont blame Sambo.





No single muslim support GEJ on Nairaland! Not even ONE! The question is WHY?



As a matter of fact; I prefer a GOAT as president; to a Buhari

Where did you get this info from? How many muslims do you know on nairaland?

You should also do your best to highlight any inflammatory speeches you hear made by the other party.
These rallies are ALL televised live

and ur old mama deliberately gave birth to an unreasonable coward like u asking irrelevant question of what a president has done in good 6years?ape pls go reservice ur brain or rather still fall back to the zoo where ur likes are..cos u r not useful to ursself and d country..ape

Please may I have the audience of Bishop Oyedepo to this. Going by his recent outburst down here in the south on religion sentiment.

jaytee01:

I do not have time for people who relish selective amnesia.

The examples are all over the place. Jonathan is clueless; Jonathan is corrupt; Jonathan is a drunken fisherman; PDP is a nest of killers; PDP are pigs; PDP is an enslavement party; Jonathan is sponsoring Boko Haram all the blatant lies on government accomplishment.

It can only happen if far majority are in support of Buhari and hate Jonathan. What this means is that Buhari is getting 95% in North and thats a winner already.

If what you said is true,what makes you believe Buhari can not change now?GEJ may not have done his best,but Buhari no be am

Because if he wanted to do it, he would have done it when no one would have opposed him (as a military leader with so much unquestionable power). Is it now that he has the different arms of govt & Nigerians are now more enlightened that he'll do it. Think, my friend, think.

DISSECTING BISHOP OYEDEPO'S SUPPORT FOR GEJ AND SAMBO'S ANTI-CHRIST OUTBURST AGAINST CHURCHES AND PASTOR OSINBAJO AT THE JIGAWA STATE PDP PRESIDENTIAL RALLY BY BUNMI AWOYEMI
I was shocked when a man of God, Bishop David Oyedepo who I respect so much said in his church some days ago that his members should slaughter any one that looks like a terrorist.________________________________________
I was shocked when a man of God, Bishop David Oyedepo who I respect so much said in his church some days ago that his members should slaughter any one that looks like a terrorist. The key word
there is "anyone that looks like."Bishop David OyedepoWhile I am 100% in support of self defense, I abhor tribal profiling and targeting. When this happens, innocent lives are bound to be lost. Then in the 3rd service of his Church on Sunday, January 25, 2015, attended by President Jonathan, my dear Bishop Oyedepo said in a comment directed at President Jonathan “We will open the gates of hell on those who oppose you.When God enthrones you no one can dethrone you”
My Bishop's support of Jonathan is anchored on the false premise that Buhari is planning to Islamize Nigeria. Nothing could be further from the truth. IBB not Buhari registered Nigeria as a member of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC). IBB, Abacha and Abdusalami Abubakar attended OIC meetings. No President of Nigeria has attended OIC meetings in the last 15 years until President Jonathan attended an OIC meeting in late 2014. Buhari never attended any OIC meeting and refused to join the OIC even though he was a military Head of State possessing immense powers. How can the same Buhari now Islamize Nigeria in a democratic setting which has the checks and balances of the National Assembly and the Judiciary?
Is my Bishop aware of what happened a few days ago? At the Presidential campaign rally of GEJ/Sambo in Jigawa state on January 21st, 2015, in the presence of President Jonathan, Vice President Namadi Sambo stated in Hausa : "Buhari ya dauko pastor a matsayin mataimakinsa kunsan coci nawa yake dashi? Yanada coci 5000, don haka karku zabesu. The translation is - "Buhari has selected a pastor as his running mate, do you know how many churches he has? He has 5000 churches, so based on that, don't vote for them".
My Bishop, Sambo used religious sentiments in his attempt to divide the country and incite Muslims against Christians. Sambo also said at the rally that the PDP is the most Islamic Party in Nigeria because nobody can be more Muslim than him. He said that his name is Namadi which is a derivative of Namadina, meaning someone from the Medina in Saudi Arabia. At the Rally in Jigawa State Sambo also stated that he goes for the Hajj every year.
My dear Bishop, in Sambo's determination to whip up religious sentiments and divisions, he stated at the Jigawa state rally that all the security chiefs in the Jonathan administration are Muslims and based on that, those alleging that Jonathan is supportive of Boko Haram are not being fair. He mentioned the names of some key ministers in the Jonathan administration including Defence Minister, Aliyu Gusau, NSA, Sambo Dasuki, Inspector General of Police, Abba whom he emphasized are all Muslims. He also mentioned all the Muslim ministers from Kano, including Aminu Wali, Foreign Affairs Minister and Shekarau, Minister of Education.
Bishop, Sambo then asked if anyone could claim to be more Muslim than him Namadi Sambo. Then he shouted Allahu Akbar (Allah is great several times). To close his speech he recited the AlFatiha, (The Opening, the first seven verses of the Holy Quran, which for Muslims is the Mother of the Book, highly revered by all).
My dear Bishop, Sambo's outburst against Christians and Pastor Osinbajo would not surprise close watchers of political events in Nigeria but it does reconfirm the outcome of late General Azazi thorough and extensive investigation of Boko Haram and in which he concluded that the PDP founded Boko Haram and finances its terrorist activities.

MY ADVISE TO CHRISTIANS WHO RESPECT BISHOP OYEDEPO
To Christians like me who hold Bishop Oyedepo in great esteem this is my advise to you;
Don't let any pastor tell you who to vote for. Does Bishop Oyedepo experience the effects of misgovernance? Bishop is on 24-hr power generators and he does not even know when there is power outage. You bear the brunt of misgovernance daily and you should know that voting GEJ is a guarantee of another 4 years of no electricity, corruption galore and insurgency that will claim more lives and disintegrate Nigeria. Vote based on what you know not on religious or tribal sentiments!
Currently, 70% of the territory of states like Borno, Yobe and Adamawa are under the firm control of Boko Haram. This is the first time this is happening in Nigeria. Boko Haram bombing and genocide has targeted both Christians and Muslims, churches, mosques and schools attended by both Christians and Muslims. Because of Boko Haram's control of about 5% of Nigeria's territory, Nigeria's map has been redrawn.
When a bomb goes off in a market place it does not discriminate between Muslims and Christians. When the village of the Chief of Defense staff close to Mubi was attacked he did not rescue his fellow christian villagers but he airlifted his relatives out of danger and leaving his fellow Christians to be slaughtered by Boko Haram. The "polithievians," "executhieves," "legislooters" and "judishare" officers of Nigeria have only one religion that unites them and that religion is stealing and looting with impunity.
How many of the Pastors that are telling you to vote for Jonathan have children who are unemployed graduates sitting at home; bear the brunt of insecurity; send their children to public school; patronize government hospitals like you do or understand what the members of their religious organizations go through on a daily basis?
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out when ASUU and ASUP were on strike twice in 4 years thereby leading to the loss of almost 2 years in the academic calender of Universities and Polytechnics?
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out to condemn the manner in which the almost 300 Chibok girls were kidnapped? Did he condemn the manner in which the President refused to acknowledge that they were kidnapped? Did Bishop Oyedepo condemn the failure of the President to rescue the Chibok girls 9 months after they were kidnapped by the insurgents?
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out when medical doctors went on strike twice in 4 years leading to the death of millions of Nigerians.
Has Bishop Oyedepo spoken out against the ongoing strike by health workers and judicial workers in Nigeria?
All these strikes have to do with the inability of President Jonathan and the PDP government to abide by industrial agreements signed after extensive bargaining among stake holders and their insensitivity to the plight of Nigerians.
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out when 16>19, 5>26 and 7>19 in the Governors Forum election, Rivers state house of Assembly and Ekiti State House of Assembly in clear and reckless violation of the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria?
Has Bishop Oyedepo spoken out to condemn the legalized looting of billions of dollars of Nigeria's money taking place under the watch of President Jonathan? Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out to condemn the beating up of a state High Court judge in Ekiti state by the Chief Thug of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose and his gang of thugs?
Did Bishop Oyedepo speak out to condemn the deliberate flouting of court orders by President Jonathan which has become like a recurring decimal in his administration?
Let Pastors like Bishop Oyedepo who don't know what their members are going through or who are unable to feel the pulse of the masses, stick to what they know how to do best which is feeding Chist's sheep as Christ commanded them, but let them stay out of politics. Bishop Oyedepo should not try to influence Christians to vote for a failed President like Jonathan. I urge all Christians to vote their conscience to free themselves from the 16 year bondage of the PDP led administration.
Section 95 (3) of the Electoral Act, states that “places designated for religious worship, police station and public offices shall not be used for political campaigns, rallies and processions or to promote, propagate or attack political parties, candidates, their political ideologies or programmes.”
Let my darling Bishop note that his actions on the pulpit violates this law and as a man of God the scripture expects him to obey the laws of the land. We are to give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's.
