For the years that GEJ was president there was no known record of political assassinations.
Is Nigeria gradually sliding back to the dark era of yesteryears?

The way and manner oppositions are being muted and hunted is taking frightening dimensions.

If this administration doesn't do something urgently to unify this country quickly, I am afraid for what the future holds for Nigeria.

The way you guys reason is absolutely ridiculous. So the tens of people that were killed in Rivers state alone under the supervision or your role model's wife in the run up to the last election are not political killings?

BTW what gave you the impression that there's political motivation for this? What would anyone gain politically from his death? Are you sure there's no one in his congregation who's eyeing his position?

You don forget simple conversion?

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.” Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength. (I Corinthians 1:18-25)

The 40-laptop crew starting to show up?

It appears a lot of people are getting this wrong. He wasn't punished for accusing the referee of racism but for his assault on the referee after the match. SIMPLE!

bashy_demy: was it not salami's judgement that brought your ingrate Mimiko to power? It's like these ingrate and betrayer are contagious? You people are bunch of ingrates.

You got it wrong, Salami hadn't become the President of Appeal when Mimiko won.

sunky644: Comment on nairaland from my town, interesting. But, we used to have only two wards in ilara, when was it increased to three or you meant to say polling unit 3?

He is probably one of FUTA students that reside in Ilara.

bashy_demy: hahaha you funny Tinubu never make ondo his residence, They are only there to monitored the election cos they have strong candidate on ground and need to follow the Election so get your fact right. and about the Inflation can you compare your AAU to any State own University in all ACN states?

Which ACN state universities are you talking about? Have they established new ones or those ones we already know?

peckhamboi: 15 People arrested in Olu Falae's house in Akure for thumbprinting for Labour Party

ATLEAST 15 persons were held Friday in Akure, Ondo State capital over illegal voting ahead of today’s governorship election.

They were caught stuffing ballot boxes with thumb-printed ballotpapers.

Sources told Saturday Vanguard yesterday that the suspects were caught in the residence of an Afenifere chieftain who recently endorsed one of the gubernatorial candidates in today’s election.

The Police got wind of the illegal voting and stormed the residence of the Afenifere chief and arrested the suspects.

It was discovered that the retrieved voting materials were the leftover of those that were used in the 2011 elections.

The intention of the suspects, it was learnt, was to swap the fake ballot boxes with the original ones on the way to the counting centres.

The suspects are allegedly being detained in police custody.

Saturday Vanguard also gathered that a similar illegal voting exercise is taking place in many other places in the state.

I guess this is one of those ACN propaganda. If you check the Nation's version of the story, it is almost the same as this word for word, except the difference in the name of the newspaper. It's certain that the same person wrote the article and you wouldn't find it on another credible site.

Currently at Akindeko hostel in FUTA Southgate, Akure where the accreditation is going on smoothly. Some ACN guys are having one-on-one 'evangelism' with prospective voters, trying to do a deal of N1000 per vote. Several people turning them down though.

Please get your facts right before commenting. Ondo case is different from those of Osun and Ekiti. Salami was not the president of Appeal court when Mimiko won his case. Also be reminded that Mimiko also won at the Tribunal, unlike the cases of Ekiti and Osun.

Aderostock: It was customised by Labour party agents to discredit ACN. Nigeria politics at it again. I just called a friend from Akure and said there is nothing like dat in Ondo. Abeg make dem park well.

Say only what you know. For the past few days helicopters have been flying over every nook and cranny of the state spraying customized MTN, GLO and Airtel recharge Cards.

A Czech father of one who survived for more than six months without a real heart has died at the age of 37. Jakub Halik had his heart replaced with two mechanical pumps in pioneering surgery last April after an aggressive cancerous tumour was found.

Doctors say his death was caused by liver failure, and not the artificial heart itself. Mr Halik, a former firefighter, was waiting on the transplant list for a suitable donor when he died. Despite not having a pulse and always having to carry a battery pack to power his mechanical heart, Mr Halik was able to walk around and even use the hospital gym.

He was not able to accept a donor heart earlier because the cancer meant he would not be able to take the drugs he would need for a successful organ transplant. The radical surgery had only ever been tried on one other patient, a man in Texas, who survived for just a week. 'Healthy man' Mr Halik's operation was carried out by Jan Pirk, director of cardiology at the Institute of Clinical and Experimental Medicine in Prague. His team used two plastic pumps, each designed to perform the separate tasks of the left and right sides of the heart.

Speaking at a press conference in August more than four months after the surgery, Mr Halik said he felt "very good physically", and said he had made the right choice to proceed with the operation. "It was hard for me but I didn't have any other chance at all," he told reporters. "It was acknowledged that with the tumour I can survive for about one year and I decided to fight and do it this way." He said the experience of living without a heart had not been difficult. "I don't even realise it, because the functions of the body are the same, only my heart is not beating and I have no pulse anymore," Mr Halik said. "Otherwise I am functioning like a healthy man at present." Doctors said it is unclear how Mr Halik's liver failed. They are awaiting the outcome of a post- mortem examination.
