I wish him a very quick recovery.

A superb and role model Footballer. You don't get to hear any rubbish about him.

lonelydora:
Most people criticising pastors do not even pay tithe or contribute more than 2000 naira for a church project, and they make the loudest noise.

Real givers in church who give large amount of money does so secretly without anyone's knowledge.

People, if as a contractor, i win a big contract or i get promoted in my job with the aid of my pastors prayers, omo, what is 10% or more to give God back?

If you can't pay tithe, leave those that understands the kingdom's principles of tithing to continue.

A check on my bosses, have shown that they donate massively in church projects/pay tithes, reason they keep getting it back in folds.

I have some Alhaji friends (non-fanatics) who whenever i give them invitation for a church project launching, they willingly give me big money in an envelope to give to the Church.

WE NEED A CREED ON CHRISTIAN THREADS HERE JUST LIKE THE MUSLIMS HAVE.

There is a difference between tithing and donating to the church.

Nobody is questioning donating to the church for whatever purpose, but then it should be voluntary and cheerfully given. The bible says God loves a cheerful giver and the Bilbe also said we should not go before God empty handed.

It seems the donations and offerings are.not enough for the Pastorprenuers, they want the tithes which the are preaching that you must comprusily bring to the church. That is crux of the discussion. Pastorprenuers demand tithes are going against Gods commandment as given in Duet 14 from verse 22 to the end. That portion of the bible gives the reason for tithing and what "you" not your "Pastor" should do with your tithe.

I believe in tithing but I do not believe in taking my tithe to the Pastor. My tithe is for me, to buy whatever my soul desire, it is for for widows and orphans within my gate, it is for helping strangers, and, a portion, at my discretion is for the Levites (which I take as Pastors). The key word there is I control the portion of the tithe that goes to the Pastor.

Brethren, this is not a make up, it is clearly stated in Duet 14, verse 22 to the end. Doing anything contrary to this Gods commandment is nothing but SIN.

Sapiosexuality:
He couldn't even say if tithing is a Christian doctrine or a stretch of the old testament. He made some sense but I think his defense was more emotional than scriptural or even logical.

The doctor analogy doesn't hold water in this case. You don't need be a good footballer or tailor to know a good tailor or footballer. Their work will tell you about them. That line was off.

I think his statement was laced some of the properties of mischief. Tacitly attacking the guy and telling what tithe is used for. But the point should be, is tithing Christian? Is it something a Christian ought do?

Instead of focusing on the subject we are here deflecting the shots and telling tales to defend or seen to be at peace with our mentor! I've not seen a good argument against that troublesome guy's position.

The truth is they have no defense against Deu 14: 22-29. You will never hear it preached in any church. That is where God laid the foundation for tithe. In that section of the bible God gave the reason why you tithe and what you should do with your tithe. In fact the directives in that portion of the Bible is so emphatical, it is "thou shall". No questioning the directives.

The "Pastorprenuers" who rather pretend this portion of Gods commandment does not exist so they can continue to "shopulate" what is meant for you, the widows, the strangers, orphans and the Levites (the pastors). It is a question of greed, the Pastorprenuers wants total control of the tithe instead of the portion that your are supposed to give them (as a portion to the Levites) at your discretion.

I put it forward to all that believe in tithing that you are committing sin by going against the commandment of God as given in Deut 14: 22-29 if you give your tithe to the church or to the Pastor. That means you fear the Pastor or Church more than God.

Campusity:
There is nothing wrong in EFCC inviting DSS officials. The Act establishing the EFCC did not exempt any agency or persons from investigation.

That is why it is important to build institutions. No one is above the law.

God bless you.

Whoever made the comments in the report should be thoroughly prosecute and made to face the full wrought of the law for obstructing justice.

Another thing is that you cannot trust the so called Reporter. The statement can be made up just to sell his story.

Generally speaking, personalizing common/official issues is our number 2 problem in Nigeria. Of course, corruption is number 1.

HungerBAD:
This guy confuses me.

He was born into a well respected family. Had the best of growing up and wealth. Attended the best schools in the World. Has held numerous top political positions. Handsome,Young,Suave and Wealthy(every man's dream), and my Favorite, he has SLEPT with some of the most BEAUTIFUL WOMEN Nigeria has to offer.

But why is he still MAD?

He is completely mad. He is cursed, that is why you cannot rationalized his sayings.

Yorubas don't see him more than "omo ale jatijati". A bonfire bastard.

id911:
We Nigerians are calling on you to declare your intention to contest because we have made up our minds to support you.



We are tired of lies and propaganda; we want pragmatic approach to governance which you can offer

Who are the "we Nigerians"? Talk only for yourself. I as person, will never vote for Atiku because of his thieving antecedence, and, I am a Nigerian.

Nwaisuochi:
Afonjas and the gworo-chewing terrorists may laugh now but at the end,Biafra will come!

You have started your hate remarks again. You people will never learn from your recent past experience with IPOB just as you did not learn from the Nigerian Civil War.

What have Afonjas and Arewas got to do with the collapse of your agitation and aspiration for a Biafra nation? How do you reckon you can have Biafra when all your political leaders are not in support of the agitation? When almost all the elites (educated and business gurus) of Igbo origin do not support your aspirations?

The wise ones amongst you advised you to start preparing the Southeast for Presidency in 2023. To stop all the hate speeches and cultivate friendship with other tribes. How do you think Igbo Presidency in 2023 is achievable without the support of Afonjas and Arewas? How do you think you will get the support of Afonjas and Arewas when idiots like you keep spewing hatred at the Afonjas and Arewas?

The truth is you never want to accept responsibilities for your actions. You are always blaming other people for your woes. You put all your support and faith in GEJ in 2015, when he was not re-elected, you are now complaining of marginalisation by PMB government you never supported. Haba!!!.

Yet PMB is not treating you as you deserve, in 2 years, he has done more than GEJ that you totally supported did in his 6 years of presidency. You really should be thanking your stars for the person of PMB. If it was GEJ, nothing would have happened in South East for the next 4 years.

For record purposes, GEJ refused to sign FID for NLNG Tr-7 project that would have generated thousands jobs for Nigerians, millions in terms of investment to Bonny and Rivers state and billions of dollars for Nigeria just because he was fighting Amechi, the then Governor of Rivers State. The same FID has just been signed by PMB irrespective of the fact that over 90% of Bonny people and Rivers State citizens are core PDP supporters. Wake up. You can not be expecting to reap where you have not sown except you are a thief.

Stop whining, better start learning to live in peaceful coexistence with the other part of the country, else you will continue to be left behind. Nigeria is moving forward. If we want to achieve our destiny as a Nation, we would not waste energy and thinking on whiners (like you).

Beress:
Buhari's second name should be violence and bloodsucker

Atiku2019

You are doing a good job for your pay trying to sell Atiku, a known Looter. We, Nigerians, are wise to the looting history of Atiku.

He will not get anywhere. He will not get the nomination ticket of any serious party (PDP, APC or the new party been proposed, whatever name they give it) talk less of winning the 2019 presidential election.

Anyway, keep doing the job you are paid to do. It is called wealth distribution. Let him (Atiku) redistribute some our commonwaelth he looted (both through Intels and sales of Public Enterprises during his tenure as VP to OBJ).

id911:
Confusion and double standard everywhere but this will soon be the thing of the past.

With Atiku, due process will be followed in all ramifications and those who violate the law will be punished accordingly.

Atikulate 2019 loading...

I am wondering how much Atiku has paid you to be his mouth-piece. The only thing that will happen if we make the mistake of ever electing Atiku is he will sell all government agencies to himself, family members and cronies.

"Atiku ko, Atike ni, Ole, ako tile ta jatijati".

Ayatullah:
What an insult! He called it Public Interest! Which Public? The Public that Maina robbed of billions of naira? This AGF, ABUBAKAR MALAMI will go down in Nigeria history as the dumbest!

eagleeye2:
He means he acted in Zombies' interest.

.
EFCC... should please spare us side distractions they want to cause now by tracing and marking Maina's houses. Please I dey beg them. They knew the Wanted person in the list was back into the country, but chose to turn a blind eye. So they should just continue pretending as if they were Dumb, Deaf and Blind. So that we can focus on those that reinstated the man.
Thank you.

The one billion dollars question is what is the Presidency doing about those involved? If this is not treated decisively, it is the end of PMB fight against Corruption and the end of his presidency because he was voted on the singular premise to fight corruption.

dodelight:
Smart man, since Buhari is already after his head. He quickly changed the song.
Anyways, Buhari paid that pension because of Anambra governorship election, and not because he truly love those soldiers or Igbo Modify: Obviously, I've given Zealous Zombies something to feed on. Anyway, I'm not an ipob or igbo. So Think before you quote me.

The fact is PMB knows that even if he paid the whole IPOB allowance you will always vote anti-hausa. The truth is he does not matter a bit to him because in the long run you vote does not so long as Afonjas and Arewas vote for him. He is just doing it because it pleases him.

So stop fooling yourself thinking PMB is trying to woo IPOBs for votes. Your votes do not matter in the full scheme of things in Nigeria. 2015 Presidentail results are there for your study to get facts into your thick skull. Mark my words, the same will happen in 2019, the West and North will vote PMB while the South East and South South will vote anybody opossion nominates. The result will come out same as 2015.

Who cares who you vote as your governor. It is IBO vs IBO. If your like kill yourselves. That is the truth. Who will suffer if you vote nonentities? You. Think of what the superb governors in the west are doing in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Kwara, etc are doing in thess respective states, the choice is yours. Vote whoever you like. It is your state, it your development.

pasol4real:
Just look at Ur question
What has happened since nnamdi kanu's demise?
Are u sure u are in this country
Hell ,every thing pertaining to Nigeria n the international community has been about ipob kanu n the Nigerian army.
The hottest news in Nigeria today is kanu .
So what the heck are u saying ?

Like I earlier said, you are living in the dreamland and you need to wake up from your dreams.

Who in the international community is talking about Kanu? Where are they talking about him? At UN in New-York or EU in Brussels? AU in Addis-Ababa or ECOWAS in Abuja?

Also check the headlines of Nigeria dailies and see how much Kanu is the headline and what the headline is. Even here on Nairaland Kanu is becoming obsolete.

So tell me what I don't know.

pasol4real:
So what has this got to do with ipob agitations
The anambra elections wud still be boycotted
There is a case in court by a popular American attorney to compel the UN to conduct a referrendum in Biafra,with massive evidence of genocide against the igbos n Biafrans
U lots know not what ipob is capable of
Una eyes go soon clear,
Nigeria is a goner .

If this is what you believe then you are living in a dream world.

To enlighten you a bit, the question is what has happened since Kanu got missing? The simple answer is nothing. Life continues. Nigerians continued as he does not exist. Nobody is asking where is Kanu, politicians continue campaigning for Anambra election. Election will hold and nothing will happen.

Those that waste their lives in the name of fighting for Biafra are already forgotten by Nigeria, they will soon be forgotten by their very family, live continues.

So wise up

CHANNELStv2020:
The man would ve being back to prison if the government had sense of reasoning but no kill kill destroy destroy is their logo,now the man has a reason never to show up, unintelligent government I tell u.

You are not logically and tactically gifted enough to understand that government has neutralized Kanu and IPOBs. Putting him normal prison would increased his fame and Followership. Now that he has gone missing (probably kept in Military dungeon), no lawyer or judge can grant him bail.
After IPOB has been declared a terrorist organization, Kanu will also be termed a fugitive by end of today because he would have been deemed to have jumped bail by failing to appear in court today.

Think, use your brain.

joeaz58:
all dis one bad oooo. afonja..

Nobody is shouting witch-hunting now.

What is not good is bad, there is no other way round it. We should all stand together to condemn the thieves stealing our commonwealth.

It does not matter if the thief is Arewa, Afonja, IPOB or Ogogoro (kain-kain) drinkers of Niger delta. A thief is a thief.

Dfinex:
That's great. ....but I'd like to know how it works, like will u be the one to handle the travel stuffs and visa, plus settlement and accommodation?....

The company works that for you.

And they are told to use life amunitions? what has happened to rubber bullets, water guns...etc. Una reasoning dey fascinate me

Armies don't use rubber bullets.

taylor88:
I love brave women


Wouldn't mind having one as a wife

You love thieves as there is nothing brave about stealing. If fact, it is a cowardly act.

If she is brave let her show her face.

Note - You are thief is you see nothing wrong in stealing.

free2ryhme:
Women are seriously competiting with men who is corrupt the more

Congrats to them

What a man can do a woman can do even better

I have always known when women wants to steal, they steal badly. For them it is heavy stealing or no stealing at all.

The pattern is there - Dieziani, Eti, Ibru, etc.

LastSurvivor11:
Linkdin is meant for high profile skilled jobs not cleaner job or low level jobs..

I have seen people who got foreign jobs via that platform

You are totally correct.

LinkedIn is of more value to highly skilled professionals.

I got my present job in a LNG plant in the US through linkedIn. I was contacted by a recruiter who looked up my profile and he organized a telephone interview with the company. Long and short, I got the job and relocated to Texas, USA.

Thanks to God for giving us LinkedIn.

free2ryhme:
E get as e dey do you

My point is made. Don't sit in Aba and make categorical statements that are not based on facts.

You can lash out all you want. It does not bother me one bit.

free2ryhme:
Only nigeria Army train to fight civilians

Stop making statements that propagate your stupidity and ignorance.

I don't think you can say there is any country more advanced than USA. Even in the US, Army is deployed during serious civilian disturbances or uprise.

Ereolamide:
Igbos are very united, our leaders know us IPOB are strong, they will never do this rubbish, this is the handiwork of Afonja Lagos Ibadan newspaper.

Tinubu is responsible for this.

You are totally correct. PMB told Tinubu to force APC to blackmail the PDP governors.

devindevin2000:
Afonjas are no where to be found. If this were Diezani Madueke...my goodness, they would have slaughtered her.

what is the difference between one thief and the other? what has tribe got to do with stealing?

edlion57:
Why are u guys fighting and begging us to be one ...it is obvious Nigerians hate us let us just go....we don't want blood shade of any human...let we still hv a good relationship with Nigerians when we left.. simple...but if we are dis important ...let everything be equal

Nobody is begging you or anybody to be part of Nigeria. You are not that important if the truth must to be said. Nigeria will survive and prosper without you. Do you understand?

You need to understand your recognized leaders (Governors, Senators, Members of House of Reps elected by you) have not at any point demanded they want out of Nigeria. So your agitation for Biafra is seen as rants of disgruntled political losers. It is seen as cheap blackmail because you lost out of juicy positions at the Federal levels by been ignored by PMB for your overwhelming support of GEJ during the 2015 elections.

You must be a dreamer to think we can separate peacefully with all the hate speeches been spewed on the social media? You need to wake up from that dream.

Who started the wahala? That is begging question.

Are you challenging the right of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to deploy Nigerian Army within Nigeria? If you have issues with that and you want peaceful resolution, you go to court. You don't confront an Army with weapons of all sorts and be talking peace.

Who is killing Hausas in Aba, Rivers, etc? Are you out to punish Hausas for the action of Nigerian Army?

Don't throw stones when you live in a glass house. You have not seen nothing yet. Go on attacking the Hausas, when retaliations start in the North we will see who will suffer most. The truth is the Alimajeris only understand go from the Imams. I pray we do escalate to that level.

It will just make ruling easier for PMB, he will just declare a state of Emergency everywhere and he will rule by Military fiat. Then, we will have our GMB back.

Those are the realities. So you need to wake up and call your IPOB brothers to order if you truly want peace.

perez100:
I am Igbo and not IPOB member. But you cannot kill IPOB members and expect me to be happy. I must be forced to identify with them. IPOB never killed one soul since inception.

Are you sure of you statement that "IPOB never killed one soul since inception"? Have you not watched the video of IPOBs searching for Hausas in buses around Aba?

Clean your brain. Do not make categorical statement(s) when you do not have facts. It amount to fallacy.

IgboSubmarine:
It is Over for One Nigeria

Everybody should stay in his or her own part of this geographical expression


You can't force unity through the barrel of a gun


Buhari's people can never be our friends again


Adieu One Nigeria





Is One Nigeria by force.?

The East was peaceful before Buhari sent in killers in military uniforms against the Biafrans

When you force a people against their will & rights, then you are terrorist

Nigeria has become a terrorist nation

A nation that does not respect United Nations law on Referendum is a terrorist nation

Self Determination is a right for the Biafrans.

Why the noise? You IPOBs claim you are ready to confront the Nigerian Army with your Biafra Army and you are ready to die to achieve Biafra. So why are you crying now?

Let the music play on. Go on with your hate speeches and let Kanu roll out the Biafran Army to confront the Nigerian Army.

You fools. Many of you will die for nothing. Nigeria will still continue to exist and nobody will remember you.

CastedDude:
Multiple online reports coming in from Aba, Abia state - have it that soldiers are currently dispersing rioting members of the Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB with live bullets and also arrows. According to an eyewitness, Ikemefula Nobart who has been giving live updates from the situation at hand, the military men shot arrows at citizens in order to disperse the surging crowd.

Meanwhile, a tailor popularly known as Imo and another man were allegedly gunned down by bullets fired by the security operatives during the chaos along market road in Aba, Abia state capital.

Source; https://www.nationalhelm.co/2017/09/young-man-killed-chaos-aba-soldiers-disperse-rioters-arrows-photos.html

This can not be true. In the present time and era, no Army in the world use Arrows. If you stick to bullets, I can accept, adding arrows mean it is not just Nigeria Army on the battle front.

Afam4eva:
You hate Kanu because he s asking governance difficult for your benefactors, Rochas and Buhari. Was it Nnamdi Kanu that was opening those buses to look for Hausa people? Was he the one that sent them? Pls don't make me defend Kanu because i've maintaned that he's not exactly a rle model. However, he still hasn't committed any crime to warrant the army laying siege to hs father's compound.

You said Kanu has not committed any offense? What about instigation through hate speeches?
I warned severally on various social platforms that if those hate speeches continued, violence will result. I got a lot of abuses from IPOBs. See where we are heading now. If Hausas start to retaliate in the north, then we will be heading for another civil war.

Crystolexy:
These people Nigerian Army killed,the video as we have already seen and downloadid not commit any crime, their crime is that they don't want to be Nigerians anymore.. so their punishment foyou're seeing here is less than 2% what crime Nigeria army is actually commiting against Igbos.. remember they beat & smashed the devices of news men yesterday so that they will not report their attrocities.. the video you're see is leaked by one of them who really feels remorse about their genocide, probably he's not a fulani.

Youtube there is no need removing the video as we already seen & downloaded it , I understand you guys are trying hard not to make Igbos get mad at seeing how Nigeria mitary is killing their the video as we have already seen and download



What peace are they disturbing? self determination is internationally recognise human right.. IPOD had the biggest rally in the world yet most peaceful, have you ever heard a lost of kobo or killing of anyone all the time they rallied? That geo-politacal zone remained the most peace place in Nigeria so what peace are you saying they disturb? they only people now disturbing our peace is now buhari with his fulani soldier, you know that but, choose to peddle false comment because your hatred.. But, You know Karma is a bitch.. you'll get what you wish for others.. today its happening in the east but, instead of you to counter it you're gloating over it.. that is detroning democracy and enthroning autocracy.. don't worry this babaric act of blood sucking terrorist dictator buhari you refuse to condem today will get to you tomorrow then you understand its not about just the only IPOB/Igbo.. its about every individual living under his governance in Nigeria

I wonder why the complain. I thought you IPOBs said you will deal with the Army. So please go on and deal with them.

Let the music play on.

cstr1000:
The yeye army will come to realize that igboland is not where you will go, shoot gun in the air, kill a few people and everybody will disperse.
That may happen elsewhere, not in igboland.
I hope they are ready.

You think so. We will see where it will end.

As I earlier said, let the music play on.
