Beating the pastor to his own game.
Las las, God will be confused on who to bless and who to punish and he will just overlook two of them.

Two sides of the same coin

Please I beg you, withdraw your pronouncement, God can never be confused.

Thank you.

Will they return to prison after Coronavirus? If no, they should thank God and amend their ways.

It means Orji Uzor Kalu will now be free.

He can plead till tomorrow nothing would change.The woman doesn't know the implication of what she is doing on her children. Most Women only listen to their pastors,he should get her pastor to speak to her on the implication of what she is doing on her children as it is she doesn't know and wont stop.

I reason with you. He should try his luck with their pastor then.

Okworigeorge:
why did u pour salt on it? abi u roast am to eat

LOL... No pepper yet

Children love their dad more depends on how much affection you give them.

Secondly, the issues you have with your wife may be so 'bad' that it affected the 3 oldest emotionally , though you did not disclose it.

The solution is keep pleading with your wife and turn a new LEAF.

That is Trade fair complex. Oh my God, see people money, some of them thinking on how to begin life after lock down now have nothing in their shops.

These cases of fire incidents recently calls for urgent measures.

God please send down the rains!

If this news is true

NOW WE KNOW HOW YOU GOT THOSE ELECTIONS FIGURES THAT RETURNED YOU AS GOVERNOR OF IMO STATE.

But Mr gov, are you saying no Imolites name is worth the university built with the state's resources?

Is there no federal institution you can talk Gen. Buhari to rename after his late chief of staff.

Why is IMO this unlucky with 'fulani breed' govs?

I'm sure the state assembly won't pass the it else there would be protests all over the state.

Its OK if they can not be chased away but they can be prosecuted.

If they are not prosecuted many Nigerians are ready to break laws bacause we are all tired of this country where it favours only the rich.

If you doubt, check how police are being attacked, burns them, their vehicles and stations.

It is better they are prosecuted including Garba Shehu. This will increase the confidence that Gen. M Bubari is not selective.

Congratulations ma!

To all expectant women, never give up. God in His infinite mercy and kindness will bless you

Hello guys, as a fresh graduate with a 2:2 grade, which would you advice I do or would you rather opt in for among the three to have a successful career in the near future?

Go ahead and get into business or production

They believe in Nigeria Project because crude oil is still flowing.

Nonsense

DonMustafa:
How about someone like Akinwumi Adesina? Must nepotism be number 1 in Nigeria?

Dr Akinwumi Adesina is a proven administrator. He would do better than all those people listed up there

Since we are listing profiles here, let me drop the profile of Akinwumi Adesina for those who do not know

* Akinwumi Adesina is the President of the African Development Bank

* He was Vice President of Policy and Partnerships for the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA)

* He attended a village school in Oyo and went ahead to graduate with a Bachelors in Agricultural Economics with First Class Honors from the University of Ife, Nigeria (1981) (Note: A first class from OAU is no joke)

* He was the first student to be awarded this a first class in that department in OAU

* He has his masters from Purdue University in Indiana

* He has a PhD (Agricultural Economics) in 1988 from Purdue where he won the Outstanding PhD Thesis for his research work.

* He worked at the Rockefeller Foundation since winning a fellowship from the Foundation as a senior scientist

* His short time as Minister of Agriculture in Nigeria created the agricultural revolution we are enjoying today.

* He is the current President of the African Development Bank

I am tired of typing.

Buhari don't a technocrat or a professional. All they need is who will follow with utmost loyalty to the greed and agenda of Fulani.

BENARI:
I see sense in what you've written.

Abba was nice to him on personal grounds. I can never be persuaded to change my mind about who others and I saw him to be.

Whatever or whomever he was, he now has the opportunity to defend before his Maker.

Yeah

The man even pissed me by saying the have same political ideology. Maybe looting ideology who can tell why he left Geneva after 30 years.

Mr Goeffrey all these you said about him being detribalized and a Nigerian global citizen would have been true if he had persuaded his master not to treat the SE/SS votes to him as medium of devpment to those regions.

He was nice to you because your parents were rich, you both have opportunity to study in far away country and so you became friends.

The late chief of staff together with his boss practically marginalized SS/SE both in appointments and infrastructure.

If not for oil in SS there own would be worse.

So Mr Onyema, he is detribalized to rich Nigerians hence you have retained your position for 5 years now.

ThatFairGuy:
Stop attributing GEJ's failure to sanusi's ordeal. GEJ is CLUELESS
[s][/s]

And can you mention any clue from the retired Maj. Gen Buhari (President of Nigeria).

Racoon:
The presidency tactically has a hand in Oshiomole's present ordeal.It's time to discard him.

Please, who is the presidency?

Wait ooo! After 51 being killed, he is still giving them safety guarantee.

This government is a joke. They are even tired of the situations in this country. They have run out of ideas to the solution.

Oga Adamu haba! Imagine how you called out that money, will it cleanse those your corrupt boys?

Secondly, can you calculate what all state government including the FCT contribute annually to support your organization?

Sir is it not up to that amount you are requesting? Excluding the Fg spendings
You better start planning and getting prepared for the disintegration of that organization that have failed to live up to its responsibilities into state police.

That is my candid advice.

gypsey:
yes, but you would pay high price for commodities in Nigeria. after exchanging $1 to 450 naira.

Those who have foreign currencies will exchange it and buy more things which prices will not grow in same ratio as the exchange.

Really it will be hard time here. People are already crying ehardship he country because of the hardship yet the worse is being predicted.

I urge all to double your hustle since revolution or impeachment is inevitable.

johnmartus:
Southeast have been champion the campaign for restructuring Nigeria to Regional system of government. But I keep asking myself if southeast would survive the regional system of government in this present generation.
My reason for saying this could trace back to 1950 to 1960 where the same pattern was operated then. During regional system of government in the southeast ,we have enough evidence that the system wasn't work for them.

When Nnamdi Azikiwe knew that the system wasn't work for them he came to southwest but instead of Azikiwe to learn how Awolowo operating the system that working for his region. Azikiwe sermons Awolowo political enemies to frustrate Awolowo leadership.

Another reason why igbo should stop talking about restructuring . Southeast have no resources to finance regional government.

Also the southeast contributions to federal government is very low compare to what south-south and southwest contributing.

Again many igbo will still not willing to return back to their home state.

Another reason during the regional system of government southeast didn't achieve anything but other regions are flourishing. That is why Aguiyi ironsi introduced unitary system of government. Every government pursues economic development by trying to achieve macroeconomic objectives in a particular system of government.

John why u dey pity for south east?

Seems you are the one scared of restructuring. The fear of loosing oyel money from federation account is really scaring some people.

Zico5:
In truth Tinubu might be greedy but everyone that voted Buhari from South west did so because of the change propaganda the man brought into the polity. Assuming Buhari was not voted in, it would have gone into the history as the best president never voted in. Some of us so much believe that the man is the hope of our present and future. Now we all see the true handwork of Mr integrity. I can't blame anyone for this, even the south east spewing rubbish know they are only fighting to retain their relevance in the system not that they mean well for the country. We can try again though some of us have lost hope.

If you say south east did not vote Buhari so they would remain relevance in government, explain why the South west did not vote CPC/Buhari in 2003, 2007 and 2011 until when ACN/Yoruba and CPC/Fulani presented Buhari as their candidate.

The surprising issue here is that with your acclaimed 'sophisticated education'the retired general ran the economy in less than a year (forex, stock, production etc), yet you voted him in again in 2019. As you say no one is to be blamed for his emergence in 2015, which region(s) is to be blamed for his emergence in again in 2019?

Note: It was actually the South West that sold the change mantra to Buhari, if I lie ask the retired general, he knows nothing about change.

And the Church location is opposite River Blindness.

Its not as if I'm wishing doom for the country but the rise to 450 naira will benefit some people.

Even if it goes down to 250 naira, the prices of goods never come down.

GOVERNORS TO PICK COMMISSIONERS IN RESTRUCTURED POLICE FORCE

Guardian reports
The Senate is planning to approve state police and empower governors to appoint commissioners as some of the amendments to the 1999 Constitution.

The bill which is to be presented for first reading this week on the floor of the Senate automatically unbundles the Nigeria Police and will be referred to the Senate Constitution Amendment Committee led by the Deputy President, Ovie Omo-Agege.

Sponsored by the immediate past Deputy President of the Senate, Ike Ekweremadu, the bill seeks to establish federal police, state police, national police service commission, national police council, and state police service commission.

Ekweremadu (PDP, Enugu State) has been in the Senate since 2003 and was chairman of the Constitution Review Committee for 12 years when he held sway as deputy Senate president.

According to the bill, the existing federal police will be restructured and made responsible for the maintenance of public security, preservation of public order and security of persons and property throughout the federation to the extent provided for under the constitution or by an Act of the National Assembly.

On the other hand, if approved, state police will be organised and administered in accordance with such provisions as may be prescribed by a law of the house of assembly of a state, subject to the framework and guidelines established by an Act of the National Assembly.

The bill also prescribes: “A commissioner shall be appointed by the governor of the state on the advice of the National Police Service Commission, subject to the confirmation of such an appointment by the House of Assembly of the state.

“He shall be in office for a period of five years only or until he attains a retirement age prescribed by law, whichever is earlier.

“The governor may give to the commissioner of police such lawful directives with respect to the maintenance and securing of public safety and public order as he may consider necessary, and the commissioner of police shall comply with those directives.”

It continues: “Where the commissioner of police feels that any order given is unlawful or contradicts general policing standards or practice, he may request that the matter be referred to the state police service commission for review.

“The decision of the state police service commission shall be final and shall not be inquired into by any court.

“An Act of the National Assembly may prescribe a bi-annual certification review of the activities of state police by the National Police Service Commission to ensure they meet up with approved national standards and guidelines of policing and their operations do not undermine national integrity, promote ethnic, tribal or sectional agenda or marginalise any segment of the society within the state.”

The proposed law also stipulates how a state commissioner of police to be appointed by the governor can be removed from office.

“A commissioner shall only be removed by the governor upon the recommendation of the National Police Service Commission praying that he be so removed on any of the following grounds: misconduct in the performance of his official duties; serious breach of policing standards; conviction of any offence by a court of law or tribunal, including administrative tribunals set up by the police authorities for internal disciplining of police officers; indictment by a judicial body or tribunal for corruption, fraud, embezzlement or other unacceptable conducts in office; bankruptcy; mental incapacity; and participation in political activities of any kind either within or outside the state and including sponsoring or giving aid to any political group or movement.”

However, no state police commissioner can be removed without a motion supported by two-thirds members of the House of Assembly.

The bill equally states that the new National Police Service Commission shall comprise a chairman to be appointed by the president, subject to the confirmation of the Senate.

The commission will also have “Two members representing the National Human Rights Commission; one representative of the Public Complaints Commission; a representative of the Nigerian Labour Congress to be appointed by the president of the Nigerian Labour Congress; six retired police officers not below the rank of assistant commissioner of police representing each of the geo-political zones of the country to be appointed by the president subject to confirmation of the Senate; a representative of the Nigerian Bar Association to be appointed by the president of the Nigerian Bar Association; a representative of the Nigerian Union of Journalists to be appointed by the president of the Nigerian Union of Journalists; and the attorney-general of each of the states of the federation as members,”.

The responsibilities of the commission, as provided in the bill include “appointment of persons to offices (other than office of the inspector-general of police) in the federal police.”

The commission “shall exercise disciplinary control over members of the federal police. It shall recommend to the governor of a state the appointment of the commissioner of police, deputy commissioners of police and assistant commissioners of police of the state police based on a list submitted to it by the state police service commission of the relevant state and subject to confirmation by the house of assembly of the state.

“It shall recommend to the governor, the discipline and removal of the commissioner of police, deputy commissioners of police and assistant commissioners of police of the state police.

“It shall supervise the activities of the federal police and state police to the extent provided for in this constitution or by an Act of the National Assembly.

“It shall prescribe standards for all police forces in the country in training, criminal intelligence databases and forensic laboratories, and render assistance to state police in areas as may be requested by such state police.”

The state police commissioner, according to the bill, shall comprise “a chairman to be appointed by the governor, subject to the confirmation of the house of assembly; a representative of the Federal Government to be appointed by the National Police Service Commission; two members to be appointed by the National Human Rights Commission who must be indigenes of the respective state; one representative of the Public Complaints Commission; a representative of the Nigerian Labour Congress to be appointed by the chairman of the state branch; three retired police officers to be appointed by the governor, one from each senatorial zone of the state subject to confirmation of the state house of assembly; a representative of the Nigerian Bar Association to be appointed by the President of the Nigerian Bar Association who must be a lawyer from the respective state; and a representative of the Nigerian Union of Journalists to be appointed by the chairman of the state branch.”

The state commission shall be responsible for “recommending the appointment of a commissioner of police, deputy commissioner of police and assistant commissioner of police to the National Police Service Commission.”

Other functions of the state police commission are the appointment, discipline, and removal of members of the state police below the rank of assistant commissioner.

No we disagree. What about the money budgeted for those projects?

Let the money be shared evenly to all the 36 states, excluding Abuja.

According to Aisha Yesufu the only place you're guaranteed protection are now the prison yard. Every where else you stand the danger of being attacked, either by robbers, herdsmen, Bokoharam, kidnappers, bandits or a combination of the above.

Even hunger, I guess they serve them at lesst 2 meals per day.
