Ahmed Makarfi
Ahmed Makarfi graduated with a B.sc in Accounting from the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria. He later earned a Master’s degree in Accounting before becoming a part-time lecturer at the same institution.

He then moved to the now rested Nigeria Universal Bank, rising to the post of Assistant General Manager.

In 1994, Makarfi was appointed as Kaduna State’s Commissioner for Finance and Economic Planning, but when military rule ended in 1999, he contested successfully for the governorship position of the state.

After an eight-year tenure, Makarfi contested and won the Kaduna North senatorial election and went on to spend another eight years in the National Assembly.

Makarfi was appointed PDP National caretaker committee at a contentious national convention held in Port-Harcourt, the Rivers State capital. He handed over to Uche Secondus after a tumultuous regime characterized by a series of court cases.

Kabiru Tanimu Turaki
Perhaps the only Senior Advocate of Nigeria in the race for presidency under PDP flagship, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki is also a former Minister of Special Duties and Inter-Governmental Affairs between 2013 and 2015, former Supervising Minister, Ministry of Labour and Productivity between 2014 and 2015, and current Chairman of PDP Former Ministers’ Forum of Nigeria.

He was born on Friday, 3rd April 1957, and hails from Birnin Kebbi, Kebbi State. He attended the then State College of Arts and Science, Sokoto, between 1980 and 1982; and by 1985 he was done with a three-year law programme at the University of Jos.

In 2012, he was appointed the chairman of the Nigerian Copyright Commission by former president Goodluck Jonathan. He is also a former chairman of the Presidential Committee on Dialogue and Peaceful Resolution of Security Challenges in the region.

On three occasions, he contested to clinch the top political seat in Kebbi state — in 1998 under the All People’s Party (APP), in 2003 under the United Peoples Party and in 2007 under the People’s Democratic Party. But on three occasions, he failed.

In May, Turaki declared an intention to run for the presidency and is reported to have the support of Goodluck Jonathan. Former military president Ibrahim Babangida has also commended him for having “a well-articulated development agenda”.

Turaki believes he has a better moral qualification to become the president than Buhari.

“You need someone who can match him or better him integrity-for-integrity,” he said during an interview, “honesty-for-honesty, fairness-for-fairness and at the same time bring other attributes on the table which he clearly does not possess.

“This is what will make the contrast clear and the choices before the electorate clear. And I believe this is where my strength lies.”

Sule Lamido
Though he has corruption charges hanging over his head, Sule Lamido, a two-time Governor of Jigawa State is not letting up on his presidential ambition.

Lamido was among the first to declare his intention to run for the highest office in the land, having first made a public declaration in September 2017 before turning in a formal declaration notice to the PDP leadership in October.

At 70 (by August 30), Lamido insists he possesses the qualities needed to move Nigeria forward.

Lamido began his political career in the second republic as a member of the People’s Redemption Party (PRP) and in the third republic, he became the National Secretary of the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

In 1998, Lamido was jailed by the former military Head of State, Sani Abacha; whom he (Lamido) criticised for seeking to perpetuate himself in office. He was released by Abacha’s successor, Abdulsalami Abubakar, and later became one of the founding members of the PDP.

After Olusegun Obasanjo took over in 1999, Lamido was appointed the foreign minister, and in 2007, he contested and won the governorship seat of Jigawa State, serving two terms.

Since leaving office in 2015, Lamido and his two sons have been facing corruption charges for financial crimes allegedly committed during his time as governor. They deny all allegations.

Wait for list Below

Edit: Personal Opinion

Atiku Abubakar (Money Bag + Businessman),
Kabiru Tanimu Turaki (Mr. Integrity + SAN)
Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo (The Brain + Accountant)
Bukola Saraki (Money Bag + *cough*)

The above are the real Gladiators who are significant, other are just a political decoy. If they can make significant impact in the party primaries, they don't need to decamp from one party to another. Even Saraki may later drop his presidential ambition, because he cannot match Buhari on Integrity credential, just like many of them who has Case with EFCC. Election Propaganda has not commence that is why most of them were at ease.

By the time Campaign start some of them will grow cold. The only two who still has clean Profile so far are Kabiru Tanimu and Dankwambo.

TonyeBarcanista:
What is wailing? Why did Ward and LGAs KADSIEC returning officers disappeared from their respective offices only to be announcing results on RADIO?

Collation officers on ground in all areas showed impressive victory of PDP in 90% LGAs, including Makarfi, Kaduna North (Elrufai LGA where we defeated Elrufai in all wards), Lere, Kudan etc. But the ROs disappeared to the thin air.

This fraud won't be repeated in 2019...

Be wise, at all Poling unit, there are party agent who received copy of the poling result.
By the way you cannot sit in Lagos and be dictating what will/should happen in Kaduna. The LG Election voting pattern is not based on party, but the people they knew well. I know mai-maggi i will vote for him simple

If u can attempt to answer this, then I will find u intellectually enough to debate with.
1. Where do we come from? i:e Who or how are we created.
2. Where are we going?/what remains for us after death.

My own answer to this prove the hand of a super intelligent being called God.
Waiting

You Just kill the Guy erection that suppose to be raised every week

I have watched patiently throughout last week how a lot of folks a shading Christians and pastors over offering, I would have remain silent is I had encounter muslim comments against Christian. In fact I see that as high-to-heaven hypocrisy.

It would have being good if they (the muslim) remain silent over the issue considering the fact that most of their clergymen are serial extortionist.

How do i arrived at the above?
If you have ever attend a Muslim Ceremony or prayer meeting, you will understand what I mean. the Alfa invited to preside over the meeting is not coming alone, he will take at least three more along with him, and the these will take turns to raise prayer point.

Raising Prayer point by the invited Alfas is NOT FREE, they will call on everyone on sit to pay for the prayer he raised. This is not donation as they will still call another prayer and asked guest to pay for it. There some worse scenarios, and embarrassing where the alfa will invited the celebrant over asking him to drop money for prayer, if the are not satisfy with the amount, they will hold him to ransom until invited guess help him to raised the money up. Dont think they will stop there, they will even raise prayer for the dead, even pray of forgiveness, You will be asked to pay.

The most funny aspect is the time time they decide to collect Owo omogo during naming ceremony. That is Pay for prayer so that you child will not be stupid when he grow up.

Now all the money collect by the alfas is going straight to their OWN pocket. If they need to raise donation for mosque they will do that after they had collected their own in which turn-out is usually low because they had earlier cajole people to empty their pocket, which means they will not be able to raise fund for Mosque.

Now you judge

MOST of our pastor are not tithe collector but a tithe payer, they are have their own Job and have descent income. For example the V.P. Y. Osibanjo (Pastor) who rose to the apogee of a SAN cannot be said to be a tithe collector.

But I can categorically say that MOST of the Alfas rely on the above method to either fulfill or complement their daily bread.

I will hold my Hand here, but according to seun - Let Us Be More Tolerant Of Each Other

The Nigerian Football Federation president Amaju Pinnick has vowed to revenge Super Eagles’ 2-0 loss to Bafana Bafana in the reverse leg of the 2019 AFCON qualifying group E match in South Africa.

He was speaking Wednesday during the unveiling ceremony of a five-year sponsorship deal for the Federation Cup from oil and gas company, Aiteo. “I promise you, we will not only qualify for the AFCON but, we will beat South Africa in South Africa,” Pinnick said.

Bafana Bafana shocked the highly rated Super Eagles – beating them 2-0 in front of their home fans in Uyo. It was the first time the South Africans beat Nigeria in a competitive match. Second half goals from Tokelo Rantie and Percy Tao gave coach Staurt Baxter a perfect start on his return as the new coach of Bafana Bafana.

The second leg of the tie will be played 12th October 2018. Before then, the coach Gernot Rohr’s side will have Libya and Seychelles to contend with in the group.

As in ehn....

analice107:
Hardmirror, You claimed in your thread that you were VERY POPULAR AND RADICAL. Everyone knew you on Campus. You were the one who will not let others rest day and night.
Your voice is always heard calling sinners to repentance every morning. You won thousands of souls to God, 300+ of which you know by names.

Hardmirror, the picture you painted indicated that, even your VC wasn't as known as you were on Campus. Pls how is it possible that 5 Christian brethren, (regardless of their fellowships) can not remember you? The same year you were in school, they were in school too.

You even even went talking about a Church and mentioned name of a Pastor whose son came on here to denounce you.

Yeah, the truth came out, you were never a student in that school.

So many chaps are living on Campus but are not bona fide students.

pls give my ears rest.

300 by names?

Someone give this guy an Oscar for liar of the century

Why don't you just keep quiet and stay of this thread? Where was your court when he was ridiculing Christianity in his thread?

why are you defending him? isn't every nairalander responsible for whatever s/he posts?

The Anointing Is In You - Saturday, November 26th .

Pastor Chris

But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him (1 John 2:27).

The Holy Spirit, the one who gives the anointing, lives in you in His fullness. What we need is the recognition and acknowledgement of the greater One that lives in us. He’s as much in you and with you when you “feel” the anointing, as He is when you don’t “feel” anything.

Don’t bring God to the realm of the senses; He doesn’t deal in that realm. Don’t base your Christianity on feelings. Sadly, that’s the only way some know to relate with God; they rely more on “feeling” the anointing to know that God is present. When they don’t “feel” it, they think something is wrong, and they start praying and crying, “O Lord, let the anointing fall on me; I want to feel your presence!” Some even start fasting for the anointing to come. What a misconception!

The anointing is the effect of the workings of the Holy Spirit. It’s also the impact or impartation of the Holy Spirit’s power. For example, when the anointing comes on a clothing material, like the handkerchiefs and aprons that were taken from Paul and laid on the sick (Acts 19:12), that’s an impartation of His power on that material. The question then is, the person of the Holy Spirit, compared to His effect and impartation, which is greater? The person of course! It’s like a man and his shadow.

Begging and crying for the anointing, when the Holy Spirit lives in you, is ignoring the real thing, and pursuing the shadow; that’s not going to work. Stop trying to receive more anointing. Stop wishing for more anointing from heaven. Look inside you. Get to know Christ who lives in you; He’s the anointed One and owner of the anointing. Since He lives in you, it means you can have all the power you could ever need, right inside you. Learn to stir up this gift of God that’s in you (2 Timothy 1:6).

Prayer...
Precious Father, thank you for giving me the Holy Spirit to live in me with His miracleworking ability. You’re able to do exceeding abundantly above all that I can ask or think according to your grace and power that’s at work in me. I recognize and activate that unction today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further Study:
1 Corinthians 6:19
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

1 John 2:20
But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things.
