Vows are not alien to the Christian faith. But the kind extracted by the Catholic Church ( the vow never to leave) from her priest are the same that characterise occultism not Christianity. |
Ubenedictus:I repeat that such vows are unchristian and unscriptural. Jesus never extracted such vows from his Desciples or made it a prerequisite for them, like the Catholic Church has done. He gave them liberty to depart if they so choose. |
Ubenedictus:Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. (Matthew 11:29,30) compare with: "For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers" (Matt 23:4) Do not intentionally misunderstand me. we are looking at the way of Christ. Jesus gave his Desciples the choice to leave if they so choose. He will not compel you to remain in His service even against your will. only cults do that. |
"66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. 67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? 68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life"( John 6:66-67) Jesus did not bind any of his followers with an oath. not a single example is found in the new testament where believers a bound with such an oath. when you bind people under such an oath it becomes a cult and no longer Christ. |

“From Today Henceforth, I cease to be a Catholic Priest, in my spirit and in my soul… I forgive those who will criticize me, I live for God…I seek freedom for my soul. As I leave, I leave smiling, I AM SO HAPPY THAT I AM FREE,” Rev Edet Patrick

the cycle represents series and sequences of chemical reactions. the law of conservation of mass ( secondary sch) states that in a chemical reaction elements are neither created nor destroyed. so the reactions do not represent an actual creation process. they only utilise what is present . |
ultron12345:then animals MANUFACTURE Carbon dioxide.. there is a cycle called the carbon cycle. u recycle what has already been manufactured. that is why it is called a cycle. not carbon creation. we breath in oxygen and exhale carbondioxide, plants take in Co2 and release O2. neither animals nor plants created these gases. we only utilise them for our survival. |

not making sense. what exactly are you trying to say? |
liberalchick:would have tried to enlighten u, if I thought you were a Christian. but you are obviously not. miracles do not occur within " reasonable believable limit". Because 'ALL THINGS are possible to him that believeth' there is no limit in that. You serve the God of logic and reason and science. his epistle is what u are preaching, not the God of the Bible. Faith transcends the Rhelm of reason. That is why atheists will never understand God, And what they do not understand they call stupid. |
Gerrard59:even if these are done and confirm the miracle, u will still find another argument. I have heard, seen , and experienced many miracles. my brother they are real. Anyway, if you believed it, then it wouldn't qualify as a miracle. makes God even more awesome! |
lekanation:it is IMPOSSIBLE! A woman without a womb delivered a baby! wait. but that's why it is called MIRACLE. And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible. ( Mark 10:27). |
iamgenius:this interpretation of Romans 6:23 shocked me. mehn! abeg bible no be quoran o. |
ur issue is not with the degree of punishment but why it is illegal. so why do u want gay legalised? |

sounds like scam. give more details. the Dr's name, name and address of hospital where the 'stealing' operation was performed. your brother's current ward in AKTH. I will go and verify and come back here to give report with pix. |
how do I know it's not another scam? |
maybe there is a good side to this loan matter. though previous loans say otherwise and $30bn is huge! And with the recent secret closed door meeting between baba and saraki, only God knows what they are up to. just scared for my country. I'd love to hear peoples' opinion. |
does our president really care what will happen after he has left office. leaving us to deal with a $30bn loan with it's accumulated interests and service charges? or he cares only about saving his face and public image in the eyes of gullible and fanatical fans? |
“Between 1978 and 1986, this country incurred debts to the extent that we did not know how much we owed under the regime of General Ibrahim Babangida. They had to engage the services of a consultant in the West to tell us what we owed, and of course, the London Paris Club gave us a figure. “By the time [former President Olusegun] Obasanjo was paying the debts, in one fell swoop in 2005, this country parted with $12.4bn for the West to forgive us our debts. Meanwhile, they were the real sinners. At that time, on both the principal and the interest, we had paid $42bn. That amount alone could have eradicated poverty in the entire Africa. “Now again, President Buhari wants to get a loan of $30bn. You know what that means? For generations unborn, we will mortgage their future, except the money is genuinely meant for infrastructural development, which is usually not the case once the money comes in. So Buhari should forget about the $30bn loan when he can get more than that if he goes after our stolen money in the West. General Sani Abacha and one of his men alone stole over $17bn.” ...Femi Falana Already, the country’s external debt profile stands at $68bn and ranks 57th on the World Bank’s list of countries by external debt. Furthermore, recent figures from the Debt Management Office show that in the past one year alone, the country has accumulated over $13.2bn (N4.17tn) in external debt. , "current fiscal landscape in which about 40 per cent of the country’s annual revenue is already applied to debt servicing alone, getting a $29.9bn loan would worsen the economic situation “It is the largest borrowing in Nigeria’s fiscal history,” ....Mr Henry Boyo, An economist“ Additionally, if the foreign loan package excludes the widely reported offer of billions of dollars’ China loans and the trillions of naira which will also be borrowed from the domestic market to fund future budget deficits, then of course, well over 50 per cent of our actual annual revenue will be required just to service our debts, while the balance income will be predominantly, as usual, consumed by recurrent expenditure, with little left over for infrastructure remediation. “Besides, when completed, projects funded with the $29.96bn loans would invariably become public utilities. These prospects should be worrisome to us all, as our track record in the management of public utilities has always been riddled with corruption and deliberate negligence while some projects have become moribund, even before completion, while other sporadically sustainable operations have ultimately ended in dismal failure. ........Mr Henry Boyo, An economist please who on naira land is in support of this $30bn loan. I personally think it's devious. accumulating neck breaking debts for subsequent administrations or as Femi Galena put it "Mortgaging our collective destiny" God forbid. |
Eph 5:3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; but I seriously fail to understand what she is saying! can someone please summarise her essay for me? where is genuine heartfelt repentance in all of this rant? what a sad shame! she never really appreciated the meaning of her calling. 1Ti 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, IN PURITY. What an example, what a role model for the younger women as she continues to preach with her protruding belly! saddening n astounding. |
Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has urged the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, not to join the Federal Government in ruining Nigeria by supporting President Muhammadu Buhari’s request for $29.96bn foreign loan. The governor, who called on Saraki to join Nigerians who were against the loan, cautioned him not to because of his own personal interests join Buhari to destroy Nigeria. Fayose in a press release issued by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, said the senate president must realise “that no matter how much he tries to warm himself into the hearts of the Aso Villa Cabal, they can never love him and accept him into their fold.” The governor queried the economic sense in taking over N12 trillion loan so as to be able to spend more money during economic recession. “How can a nation be proposing to spend more money when its income has reduced considerably? “Yes, it is being argued that nations in recession must spend to get out of recession, but in the case of Nigeria, how do we pay back when as of today, 30 per cent of our income is being used to service debt? “What will happen to our economy when over 60 percent of our income is being used to service debt?” Fayose urged the senate to be mindful of the reality that many states in Nigeria were unable to pay workers salary now because of the huge debt left behind by past governments. |

pastor and late wife
|
as culled from the punch Husband of Igbo trader killed in Kano, Pastor Mike Agbahime, tells GIBSON ACHONU about how his wife was murdered and his cry for justice Can you give us a hint of your background? I am Pastor Mike Agbahime, one of the senior pastors working at the Deeper Life Bible Church, Kano State. We (my late wife and I) were also into the business of plastic production in Kano. I am from Orodo, Mbaitoli Local Government Area of Imo State. How long have you lived in Kano State? I have lived in Kano for the past 45 years. I left for Kano on Wednesday, February 17, 1971 and reached there four days later on Sunday, February 21, 1971. What happened the day your wife was murdered? I was in one of our shops on Thursday, June 2, 2015. We usually closed by 3:30pm and from the shop, we go to church. But there was one Dauda Ahmed, who had formed the habit of washing his legs (ablution) for prayers in front of my wife’s shop. He did that each time he wanted to say his prayers. He would leave his shop, which was a bit far from my wife’s own, to do that. We reported the matter to the owner of the shop, one Alhaji Mustapha. Mustapha warned him many times to desist from doing that. He told him (Dauda) that if he wanted to do (ablution), he should do it in his shop. Also, the President of the Hausa Plastic Association in Kofar Wambai market, Kano, Alhaji Aminu, also warned him when the incident was reported to him. Aminu even told Dauda that they (market union) would take him to court, if he did not change. He (Dauda) continued. Dauda was also fond of putting his goods in front of my wife’s shop in the early hours of the day. Before she got to the shop, he would occupy the frontage of the shop with his goods. Whenever he was told to stop doing that, he (Dauda) would start uttering abusive words. On the day my wife was murdered, a call came from one of our church members (who also has a shop in the market) while I was waiting for my wife to leave the shop so that we could go to the church. He told me on phone that some Hausa people were making trouble with my wife. I asked him why and he answered, “I don’t know.” It was then I asked him to give my wife his phone so that I could talk with her. Do you know that the (Hausa mob) did not allow the man to give her the phone? It was then that I quickly packed my wares to go and find out the problem. As this was going on, I met the same man who was with my wife at the market. He said, “Daddy, don’t worry, they have left her (my wife).” Later, my wife appeared. She told me that it was the same Dauda that did ablution in the front of her shop. She said that she told Dauda, “Why won’t you allow me to finish packing before you start pouring your water for ablution in my shop?” After telling Dauda this, she told me that he held her hand and asked her, “Mekai fatah?” This phrase means “What did you just say?” My wife asked him, “What right do you have to hold my hand?” She asked him to leave her hand. She stated that if he did not leave her, that she would use one of the plastic products in the shop to break his head. Immediately Dauda left her, he started shouting “Allah Akbar.” What did you do? I then told my wife that since Dauda had started his trouble again, that we should go and see Alhaji Mustapha, the owner of the shop. What happened after? Alhaji Mustapha ushered us in. He (Mustapha) told us to go and come back on Saturday, June 4, 2016, so as to speak with Dauda and settle the disagreement. His office was upstairs. But as we were leaving through the staircase, we saw a teeming mob with weapons. Alhaji Mustapha tried to disperse them. He told them in Hausa that he would resolve the matter the next Saturday. They started abusing him, throwing stones at him. They called him kafir , meaning somebody who does not know Allah. When Mustapha saw that the mob was getting more aggressive, he opened his office, told us to go in and locked it. When they saw that Alhaji Mustapha had let us in and locked his office, they continued shouting Allah Akbar. As they were shouting, many others joined them. What did he (Mustapha) do when they were gathering in greater numbers? It is painful to tell you that Alhaji Mustapha, seeing how aggressive they were, slumped. But before he slumped, he had called the police. The Divisional Police Officer of the area came in with two other policemen. The three could not calm the angry mob. The mob climbed up in their numbers, broke the window, and jumped in. What were you doing with your wife while this was going on? We were praying to God to save the situation. When they later entered the office where we were hiding, they hit my wife on the head with very heavy iron objects and she immediately slumped and died. Having completed their mission, they all went back. They did not touch me. What did the police later do? The DPO later came in after my wife was killed and asked me, “Is she dead?” He was the one who told the other policemen to bring the police vehicle, so that they could take her corpse to the mortuary. When they (mob) heard ‘mortuary’, they reinforced. When the DPO saw that they were coming in again in greater number, he called the area commander, complaining that they had killed my wife, adding that their own lives were in danger. What was the response of the area commander? The area commander deployed more policemen in the area. They arrived immediately and started shooting canisters into the air to disperse the crowd. It was the policemen who helped me to put her corpse inside the vehicle to the mortuary. The mob continued to throw stones at the vehicle as we were going to deposit her corpse in the morgue. What happened next? Not satisfied, the mob moved to my shop and vandalised it. They also smashed my car,which I bought not up to a year before the incident, to pieces. Did the Kano State Government meet you after the incident to console you? The true story was that on June 3, 2016, Governor Umaru Ganduje called a security meeting that involved all sheikhs, ulamas, state executive council members, Christian Association of Nigeria ,Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, Eze Ndigbo in Kano, Yoruba monarchs, Edo leaders, other ethnic nationalities leaders and the state commissioner of police. In that meeting, I was asked what happened and I narrated the incident. After other comments, Governor Ganduje condemned the act, saying it was un-Islamic. What was the resolution reached after the meeting? The meeting resolved that justice must prevail and that the perpetrators of the act must be brought to book. It was also resolved that my family must be taken care of by the Kano State Government and lastly, that the state government would establish Islamic schools, where Islamic scholars would teach the people (Muslims) the real Islamic doctrines and traditions. We learnt that Igbos in Kano wanted to launch a reprisal. The resolutions of that meeting, which were announced on air, made them change their minds on carrying out a reprisal. There was a serious reprisal scheduled to hold on Friday, June 3, 2016; probably a state of emergency would have been declared in Kano State if such had happened. It is pertinent to state that Eze Ndigbo in Kano also called an emergency meeting immediately, where Igbo and other ethnic groups, were asked not to take the law into their hands and that the state government had, in totality, condemned the act. Were there other developments? While my wife was still in the mortuary, leaving me and our only son, the police arrested the suspects. They succeeded in arresting Dauda Ahmed and one other person. This was when Solomon Arase was the Inspector-General of Police. The then IG also dispatched a team of detectives from Abuja to Kano. The detectives arrested three suspects. I gathered from a reliable source that Dauda confessed to the crime in writing (in Hausa language), saying that he planned and killed my wife in order to take over the shop. The other suspects also confessed to the crime. I was later called by the police to identify all of them, which I did. This was because I knew all of them. What is your assessment of the way the police handled the matter? It is painful to disclose that after a while, the other two runaway suspects reappeared in the market. The police were informed about this development, but for a reason which I did not know, they (police) shielded them (from arrest). Again, when the police had completed their investigations, they told me that they were ready to prosecute the suspects. But for a reason best known to the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice of Kano State, he refused, for five months, to file a charge against Dauda and the other arrested suspects. He (commissioner) refused to take the suspects to the High Court for prosecution. On the contrary, the police in Kano wrote to the then Deputy Inspector-General of Police, who is now the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, for advice. To the dismay of the general public and the international community, a court recently released the suspects, declaring them innocent. It is important to note at this point that the case was in the magistrates’ court for five months without being charged to High Court. Before the day your wife was killed, has there been a threat of violence against your family? No, there was nothing like such. How did your child and your relations receive the news of your wife’s murder? My son and the entire Agbahime family, including my in-laws, Igbo community, church and other well-wishers were completely devastated on hearing the gruesome murder of my wife. This was because my wife was very committed to church activities. She was every good thing one could think of in a woman. For how long were you married? We got married on Saturday, November 20, 1982 and we have lived together for the past 34 years. Did your wife ever complain to you that she was being threatened by any Muslim youth before the incident? No, the only complaint she raised was about Dauda. Put simply, she was not in any trouble or had a problem with any person (Muslim), apart from Dauda Ahmed. Did you get her corpse for burial? Yes, when the burial was fixed for August 26, 2016, at Orodo, my home town, I had to take her corpse from the Aminu Kano University Teaching Hospital, Kano mortuary to Imo State for burial. We left Kano early in the morning of August 25, 2016, and got to Imo very late the same day. The burial took place on August 26, 2016. I appreciate my church and some members of the public for their assistance in the course of the burial. Did the Kano State Government meet you after the incident to console you? Before the suspects were declared innocent, I went to him (Ganduje) to notify him that the suspects had not been charged to court. He said that he would do something about it, but never did. What he did was to pave the way for them (suspects) to be declared innocent of the murder case. Why did you relocate from Kano State? I had to relocate because I reliably gathered that some Muslims were planning to kill me. This was because I am the prime witness to the matter. How have you been coping five months after the incident? It has been like hell on earth. I say this because after they killed my wife, vandalised my vehicle and destroyed my two shops (mine and that of my wife), I now depend on my siblings and members of my church for financial assistance. Presently, I am not doing anything. What fresh things did you learn about Nigeria after the matter, especially on the call for national unity? The saying, “One Nigeria” is just mere balderdash. I say this because the leaders’ mistake is a ‘leading’ mistake. To buttress it, if our leaders cannot keep the oaths of their offices and cannot respect the sanctity of life and our constitution, there is no need to talk about oneness in Nigeria. I also say this because even if the constitution condemns killing in one part of the country and declares other people who killed in other state innocent, I wonder what kind of constitution that is. What steps did the Imo State governor and the House of Assembly take to get justice for you and your family? In spite of several letters I sent to the state government and the Imo State House of Assembly, nothing has been done by the government to correct the abnormality and ensure justice for the murder of my wife, an Imo State indigene. Apart from the burial, which the Imo State Deputy Governor, Eze Madumere, some executive council members and Eze Imo, HRM Eze Samuel Ohiri, attended, there has not been correspondence between the state government and I. I want the Presidency, Senate, House of Representatives and the judiciary to compel the Kano State judiciary to re-arrest the suspects and charge them to a High Court in Abuja, where human right activists and NGOs, among others, would monitor the proceedings. This is because I have lost confidence in the Kano State judiciary. The court ruled that the suspects had no case to answer. Do you know any of the arraigned suspects from Abdulmumeen Mustafa, Abdullahi Abubakar, Zabairu Abubakar to Musa Abdullahi apart from Dauda Ahmed? Yes, I know all of them. Even at the police station, I identified all of them. All of us were in the same market (some of them in the same line). Permit me to state that Dauda Ahmed mentioned some of his cohorts on the run, but the police never arrested them. A similar case happened in Kano in 1994 when a mob beheaded one Gideon Akaluka. Were you aware of the incident? Yes, I was in Kano then. What do you want the government to do for you? There was a four-point resolution the Kano State Government took after the meeting.They should religiously implement those resolutions. Has Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo invited you since you arrived in your state? Yes, Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State invited me and promised that the law must take its course on the murderers.

Ayatullah:Muslims never hesitate to employ deceit in defence of their religion. stop the deceit. most of us knew they we going to be released, just that it came too soon. |
shamecurls:I cannot for security reasons. it's your business if you do not believe. i'm just satisfied that the news of their release was even made public. news claims they were released today but I heard about their release and the relocation of the man yesterday evening, and that from faultless sources. |
shamecurls:I cannot for security reasons. it's your business if you do not belief. I'm just glad that the issue of the release was even made public. the news claims they were released today but I heard about their release yesterday and that from faultless sources. |
shamecurls:maybe it that easy for you to lie. maybe you are heartless enough to make sport of this kind of issue. but not everyone is like you. |
Grundig:then u know nothing of islam! |
the saddest part of this whole matter right now is that her husband has fled kano to the East for fear of his life. As we are talking the man is not in kano. attempts were made to assassinate him, he only escaped miraculously. the Hausa people said that they made a mistake allowing him to survive. |
