orgasticdance: Then there is 7th place Gombe United which pickedImagine this kind result. Yet we point fingers to those in power as the root cause of every in the country refusing to accept that we all contribute. Chai, corruption don eat too deep enter this we country Nigeria. This is just similar to the kind of results you'll get from elections. |
delvinmaya: for me, i dont feel any sympathy 2wards dem, also for ova 3 decades, they have been receiving free curses from the whole populace, did they tink d curses wont throw sum troubles their way?Yes truly PHCN has been a failure. Something you should know is that, it is not every PHCN worker that is responsible for electric power. Among them are some other professionals such as doctors, nurses, primary/secondary school teachers, accountants, lawyers, etc. |
Jbluv55: How true is this info? And why ?That may true following the info you provided: about 55 per cent of the workforce have not been paid. Jbluv55: Over 2,000 workers of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) on Monday 28th October, embarked on protest over the delay in payment of severance benefits to about 55 per cent of the workforce. |
ravgach: Haibe, why not first 'cure' yourself of this your inability to differentiate between "Spirit" and "spiritual". This will help you to be principled and become stable. All these 'floating' and 'chameleonic' contributions are becoming distractions I must confess.Since according to you, he has not been able to tell the difference, please tell us. I will love to know the difference between a Spirit & Spiritual Being. Give examples of each as much as possible. Thank you. |
Goshen360: First, it is very clear you don't even understand the question asked. However, I take it as an answer to the question in your best ability. Since you just said with emphasis on every commandment from of God is what you obey or do by His grace. Let's go further,This one tough o. The best I can say about this question/law is that Christ came to simplify these laws which all boils than to love. |
@haibe We are all here to learn and share our views. You've done a nice job in teaching others but you don't have to do it calling others olodo, shallow minded and all sorts of names/words. |
I think we've all misinterpreted what the op is trying to say. Firstly, he never said hell fire or the lake of fire doesn't exist. His main point is that, the lake of fire is a future event not something that is happening already. The dead are still in their grave (return to dust from where they were formed). It is till the 2nd coming of Christ that the dead in Christ will resurrect to reign with Christ. After which judgment for the devil and his followers will be consumed in the lake of fire which is the 2nd death. Hence why all these stories of the dead already in hell fire when the 2nd coming of Christ have not occurred. |

ddippset: And btw, what would it profit a footballer to be the most complete in the world if he cannot use his 'most completeness' to be the best footballer? Vanity upon vanity! This could be likened to the parable of the complete warrior. He is so complete he goes to battle with a gun, a knife, a club, a sling, poison, bow and arrow but is seriously beaten and defeated by another warrior with just a machete'.Abeg help me tell them o. What is the aim of an individual/group in sport/competition? Is it not to use your strengths against your opponents weaknesses to come out on top? Most complete my nairaland a*s |
ddippset: These people wouldn't quit being ridiculous. Since when did we start looking for the most complete footballer in this football world of ours? They have tried in vain to tell us ronaldo is the best footballer in the world, better than messi. And when they failed woefully because messi keeps setting standards ronaldo can't match, for the first time in history we are hearing of this 'most complete' bvllsh1t! Don't worry people the world football body fifa will introduce most complete footballer ballon dor next year.In addition to that, what is the essence of being a more complete player than a rival yet overall you end up as 2nd to your rival. Btw, football is a team sport. We all know Messi is a far better team player than CR7. That alone should be enough to make Messi a so called more Complete Player. |
ravgach: This question does not arise as the bodies of the dead are still in the grave. They only go to heaven spiritually. ravgach: 2. I told you that when a man dies in the Lord, his spirit goes to God in heaven immediately but you had issues with that.Using your logic, what happens to others that won't go to heaven? Do their spirits go to hell, wilderness and to meet who? |

3ace: The FIFA rankings have always been a source of controversy each time they are released. Not even seasoned football analyst know how they go about it. I really don't know why FIFA has refused to disclose the criteria they use in their rankings. Maybe they don't want anybody questioning their sense of judgement if the criteria are released. adekunle4050: Let fifa or whatever they are called show the whole world the standard on which d ranking is based.http://www.fifa.com/worldranking/procedureandschedule/menprocedure/index.html |
FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking Procedure How are points calculated in the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking? The basic logic of these calculations is simple: any team that does well in world football wins points which enable it to climb the world ranking. A team’s total number of points over a four- year period is determined by adding: · the average number of points gained from matches during the past 12 months; and · the average number of points gained from matches older than 12 months (depreciates yearly). Calculation of points for a single match The number of points that can be won in a match depends on the following factors: • Was the match won or drawn? (M) • How important was the match (ranging from a friendly match to a FIFA World Cup™ match)? (I) • How strong was the opposing team in terms of ranking position and the confederation to which they belong? (T and C) These factors are brought together in the following formula to ascertain the total number of points (P). P = M x I x T x C The following criteria apply to the calculation of points: M: Points for match result Teams gain 3 points for a victory, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for a defeat. In a penalty shoot- out, the winning team gains 2 points and the losing team gains 1 point. I: Importance of match Friendly match (including small competitions): I = 1.0 FIFA World Cup™ qualifier or confederation- level qualifier: I = 2.5 Confederation-level final competition or FIFA Confederations Cup: I = 3.0 FIFA World Cup™ final competition: I = 4.0 T: Strength of opposing team The strength of the opponents is based on the formula: 200 – the ranking position of the opponents As an exception to this formula, the team at the top of the ranking is always assigned the value 200 and the teams ranked 150th and below are assigned a minimum value of 50. The ranking position is taken from the opponents’ ranking in the most recently published FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking. C: Strength of confederation When calculating matches between teams from different confederations, the mean value of the confederations to which the two competing teams belong is used. The strength of a confederation is calculated on the basis of the number of victories by that confederation at the last three FIFA World Cup™ competitions (see following page). Their values are as follows: UEFA/CONMEBOL 1.00 CONCACAF 0.88 AFC/CAF 0.86 OFC 0.85 www.fifa.com/worldranking/procedureandschedule/ menprocedure/index.html This should help those who keep asking how come some countries are ahead of others. |
Ok fine, we are all agree Toyato products are more in Nigeria than others but the FRSC still took a step in the right direction with the stats provided especially with the mention of fire. A data showing us the number of accidents per 100,000 of the various car products will give us a better picture. This is possible if they know the total amount of each of the various car products in the country. The sort of comments seen here reminds me of a story an officer gave. He said that during an awareness on safety in an oil company, he showed them a data by a world organisation about road accidents with Nigeria having one of the highest worldwide in years. A worker said we have the highest because "Oyinbo get bad belle for us" |
Jehovah Shalom: Asides from the obvious fact that Toyota Brands hold sway here in Nigeria.Not exactly what you think. I just attended a week course on safety. From what I've learnt, what he just did is what they call audit. It is simply correcting weaknesses or strengthening/recommending/encouraging strengths found in a system as the case may be. Also, the major cause of the accidents is not the conditions or state of the roads, motors etc but the driver because he is in control over these other factors. Finally, safety is for all, be it oga at the top, cleaner, papa, mama, old or young because action taken by me can cause damage to me as well as others and even the generation yet unborn. I use this as an opportunity to encourage us all to attend a training on any safety course through http://www.nispnigeria.org/ http://www.nispnigeria.org/courses.php They have branches across the country. It is as a result of the lack of awareness on safety that these accidents and some comments posted here keep happening. You and I have a role to play. Act safely. |
Edo state governor, Adams Oshiomhole, has informed the international community that Nigeria as a sovereign nation will always uphold its constitution. He said this while reacting to the United Nations, European Union and others, over the hanging of the four armed robbers sentenced to death by hanging by the Supreme Court, the nation’s apex court. Speaking at the second annual seminar on the “Role of Public Complaints Commission in a democratic Nigeria’ organized by the Public Complaint Commission, in Abuja on Thursday, the governor maintained that anyone who deliberately kill another deserves the capital punishment. “We are part of the international community and my views must just be heard like the views of any other person. I am concerned about death, I am concerned about the sanctity of the human life and even as a Catholic I am even more fanatical about the sanctity of human life, he said. “As a governor and I believe it is the statement of the European Union he (Ambassado David Macrae, head of delegation to Nigeria and ECOWAS European Union) is talking about the rule of law, the rule of law is the fundamental of human right.” He said during his swearing-in, he swore to obey the Nigerian constitution nd not resolutions, communiqué and recommendations of the international. “The day I was sworn in, I subscribed to obey the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria there was no suggestion to me that I shall obey the resolution of the UN or the European Union. Continuing, “I do understand that there is no such thing as universal values. As we speak nations and humans battle ideas on the basis of different value system and it will be abuse of my own right and my own value if some one thinks that his views are superior to my own value and views. “I do not think that my values are less human and at any rate I will act according to my value that is why I took vow and I say to my brother Ambassador in trying to understand how best to protect the sanctity of human live, we must ask question is it better to pardon those who kill? If it is so, will it lead to more people being killed or should we tell the people that if you kill you don’t have the right to live,” he said. The governor who said that Nigeria is a sovereign nation that struggled to gain independence so as to live according to the norms, values and culture of the people, regretted that those Nigerians who tried to raise eyebrow over the decision to execute the robbers, live on foreign handouts. “I did not do what I did in Edo may be because President Goodluck wants me to do so, if President Goodluck Jonathan tells me to go and execute one that does not require it I will not. I will tell him I am the head of the state government. “The reason is that both the president and myself are the creation of law and we are to abide by the Nigeria constitution. A guy went to rob, after robbing his victim he was not done, he brought out a cutlass and killed the guy, he was not done, he severed the head from the body and butchered the parts and buried them in different locations in other for people not to know that somebody was killed. He said the police carried out a thorough investigation and the law took its cause. “They arrested this guy, took him to take them where he buried the different parts and the matter passed through the Edo State High Court, to the Appeal Court and to the Supreme Court “I have what is called prerogative of mercy but as a catholic I asked myself the ten commandments said that thy shall not kill and God who has the infinite right to forgive decided to create hell side by side heaven, those he forgive go to heaven those he did not forgive go to hell and if God should create hell, who am I so I refused to exercised my prerogative in favor of the robber so that the order of the supreme court could be carried. “But there are some idle lawyers who read law upside down. I am happy the bar is here, the bar must be guided by the code, when the supreme court has pronounced a judgment somebody goes to a High Court to challenge the decision of the supreme court by a lower court, even we know a lower court can’t question the supreme court,” he said. Governor Oshiomhole said it would amount to an abuse of his own value if somebody should think that his own value was superior to his (Oshiomhole), adding that as a sovereign nation, Nigeria defined its national interest and that no other country should define the interest of the country to Nigeria. “Why should we respect the right of a criminal, what of the right of the victim. In Edo State, if you kill and the law finds you guilty and convicts you, you will not live,” he said. On the controversy trailing the Nigeria Governors Forum election won by Governor Chibuike Amaech of Rivers State, Governor Oshiomhole said that he was amazed over the comments of the President of the Nigeria Bar Association, Okay Wali. “The NBA, I have a complain against them. We have had vibrant leadership and an activists as NBA Presidents. I saw the NBA president lending support to people who are not ready to accept a small electoral defeat, he said. “A man (Jona Jang) came from Jos and the other one (Chibuike Amaechi) came from Rivers to campaign for votes, the Jos man got 16 votes, Rivers got 19 votes. Any day I see the new president, the current president of the NBA, he is an embarrassment to the NBA. He needs to purge himself of those reactionary pro establishment agencies.” Reacting to the disagreement between the Federal government and the National Assembly in the passage of the Supplementary budget, the former Labour President lamented that the non release of the appropriation was affecting his credibility as a governor. “I heard that the Presidency and the Minister of Finance who is the Coordinating Minister of the Economy are aggrieved that the National Assembly has refused to entertain or legislate on the supplementary budget, the National Assembly is saying it has passed the budget. “My own fear remains how to address the challenges facing Edo state. The ministry of finance has not released my money in full. From January till now more than N1.8 billion appropriated to Edo is being delayed by Abuja that is affecting my credibility as a governor to fulfill my commitments to my contractors. “If as a governor I can’t get my statutory allocation on the basis of the rule of law, I am aggrieved so if Public Complaint Commission can help me. If we don’t manage the system well, we are going to lose credibility before the people.” He praised the FCT Commissioner of the PCC, Chief Obunike Ohaegbu for the reformations that he had brought to the commission, calling on relevant authorities to further support the commission.

cj1080: Mine is working but I will explain my procedure although it was expensive.I'm afraid I have no choice but to try yours. This is because mine worked only once after subscribing for the 2Gb on my pc(about 80Mb used actually). The next time I attempted to connect on my pc, all went well until about 3 minutes later, connection refused to work only to find out that my account balance of about 100 is now zero. I've tried other bb plans as well as the 10Mb plan but I'm getting the reply that I can't migrate to other plans while I still have an active one. |
Toppiano: FIFA rating na rubbish. Super Eagles carry unbeaten win nations cup still we nor dey first. Na dem sabi. Abi dem expect us to go win confederation cup ni? If Spain nor win, Italy nor win, Uruguay nor win why dem come dey embarrass us with yeye rating. In fact dem suppose rate all teams for confederation cup 1 to 8 first make others followSo you think your idea makes much more sense than the one an organisation such as FIFA must have set down in rating teams?

ehis999: Somebody wins the league 13 times in 26 seasons is good not great...that's not exceptional...i'd offer him a long service award!I guess you forgot that each season, over 20 managers contest for it but only 1 ends up taking the crown. SAF attempted that 26 times and came out on top 13 times yet you don't see that as great. Your reasoning faculty must be faulty. |

pro01: Mourinho is a scatter-brained journeyman. He lacks the maturity, staying power, professionalism, patience, and discipline required to succeed a man like Sir Alex. A fool like Mourinho would manage the club for two or three years and find a reason to flee elsewhere. Compare that with the stability Six Alex brought to Man U with his 26-year stewardship. I'd say a man like David Moyes is the perfect fit. Mourinho would destroy Man U. Even as a Chelsea fan, I don't want Mourinho back in Chelsea, it would be "great" if he took his bullshyte to Man U.You've just said the bitter truth about the so called special one. For the first time I'm hearing this from a chelsea fan. You're indeed a true chelsea fan who cares about the future and not just the present. |
I'm not a Man U fan but I'll say he is the greatest and will be the greatest ever any single club will get. It doesn't get much better than what he has done. All through the years, it was SAF vs any other manager for the EPL title. |

are no longer responsible for the welfare of the people, or their security. The government handles this with police, FBI, fire departments, judges, magistrates, and courts. The people pay taxes (30%-50% of their income) to the government for these services. For the church to take an additional 10% may be considered oppressive. The church is attempting to claim ground based on spiritual principles by saying, "We are the spiritual Israel" and "We take care of your immortal souls, " This kind of talk is gibberish. Each person is responsible for his/her own salvation according the bible. If you currently pay taxes for services like "law and order", protection, national security, etc, and the church is not providing it directly, then the church is not validated to receive the tithe.
