Religion / Re: How You Can Know For Sure That You Will Go To Heaven When You Die by Barfibassey(m): 9:39am On Aug 30, 2020
Believe ne when I say salvation and righteousness is self choice it doesn't have anything to with religion you as a person have to earn it, Jesus Christ doesn't give enternal life or salvation or does he make a person righteous, you have to earn for your self ...the only way to gain enternal life is being remember same way people remember Jesus God and many other self righteous being who have past away a person can die but the only way he can live on is through memories if your forgotten then that means you are lost just calm down and read the Bible without no sentiment and then compare it to reality then you get the answer you are looking for, many folks think heaven is in the sky no it's heaven means a safe place were love and unity truly exist only a mind with suchlike will be able to abide there.

I wonder!

Nigerians have refused to wake up.

The funny thing is despite all the humiliation and extortion, they'd find it worth going through all the hurdles just to remain in those Countries than returning to Nigeria where nothing works.

Meanwhile, as we even witness on NL, most of the 'youth' (/adults) are totally disoriented. The abnormal is now normal to them, and the normal, abnormal.

Politics / 47 Anniversary Of Ogundipe Why History Calls Him A 'coward' by Barfibassey(m): 4:35pm On Jan 02, 2019
and his heart stopped beating, it was a heart attack that happened on  20 November 1971, exactly 47 years ago, when he was 47 years old. He was the Chief of Staff, Supreme Headquarters, the second most senior Nigerian army officer next to Ironsi, who should have taken over but never did, for which history has painted him in the unfair colours of cowardice.

When the dead is giving a bad name (by reputation for perception behind their back) and that reputation is held in trust by what should be the safest vault….history, injustice would have been defined! Reputation and perception of everyone is at the mercy of the media and influencers, but truth establishes the authenticity of facts.

THE WEEKEND THAT BECAME  OGUNDIPE’S “WEAK END”

Max Siollun on the 120th and 121st pages of his 2009 (New York) Algora published book he titled “Oil, Politics and Violence Nigeria’s Military Coup Culture (1966-1976), provided this insight to the man, this way, with respect to the July 1966 counter coup.

The year was 1966, the venue? What is now Ikeja cantonment: “Over the weekend of July 30 and 31, the Northern soldiers engaged the civilians in an apocalyptic and emotional explosive debate. The debate raged in a dangerous power vacuum as the nation drifted precariously without a head of state. The most vociferous and uncompromising advocate of the Northern Region’s secession was 28-year-old Murtala Muhammed. He dominated the debate, verbally harangued the civilians in a forceful manner and became the official spokesman for the mutineers. The military governor of the Eastern Region, Lt-Colonel Emeka Ojukwu was continually excluded from the debate and took it upon himself to contact Gowon by telephone. However, Murtala Muhammed continued to be the mutineers’ spokesman until he suddenly and unexpectedly acknowledged Gowon’s seniority over him. According to Captain Garba, Murtala suddenly turned to Gowon and told him, “you are the senior, go ahead.” However, Murtala repeatedly interrupted Gowon as the debate continued, leading Gowon to become so exasperated that at one point he threatened to step down unless the hard-line Northern soldiers agreed to listen to his views. The British and American ambassadors, Sir Francis Cumming-Bruce and Elbert Matthews, respectively, also joined the parley…..

Both US Ambassador Matthews and UKHICOM Cumming-Bruce have made strong representation in opposition to secession of any area of Nigeria. We consider such development would be major political and economic disaster for Nigerian people and severe setback to independent Africa

Prominent Northern politicians such as Sir Kashim Ibrahim added their view via telephone. Kasim felt that it would be foolhardy for Northern soldiers to hand power back to another Southerner on a platter. Allowing a southern soldier to succeed Aguiyi-Ironsi also carried the risk that the mutinous Northern soldiers would be prosecuted and punished by the new southern leader ”

UKHICOM stands for United Kingdom’s High Commissioner. High Commissioner is used in place of ambassador by Commonwealth nations)

SEALED FATE BEYOND REDEMPTION:

That new southern leader, Sir Kashim was referring to was Ogundipe! By the evidence of Siollun, it was Kashim, that sealed Ogundipe’s fate, well beyond redemption, Ogundipe’s sun had set at midday, Ogundipe had been rendered irrelevant and impotent by the man Nzeogwu showed respect too, on that bloody morning of January 15, 1966.

J. M.  Muffett, the “research fellow of the center for International Affairs, Harvard University and Professor of African Studies, Duquesne University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania”, in his book ” Let Truth be Told, The Coups d’Etat of 1966″, wrote the following on the 35th page of 1982, Zaria published Hudahuda book about Nzeogwu and Sir Kasim:
“From the Recce Sqn. lines, Nzeogwu went back to Brigade Headquarters, where Sir Kashim Ibrahim had been taken. ‘We were there some time under guard until Nzeogwu arrived. He came to me and said ” I am sorry, Sir, this is a mistake; we do not want people like you! The only people we want to kill are Azikiwe, Ahmadu Bello, Akintola, Okpara, Okotie-Eboh and Orizu,”

Siollun again, this time on the 117th page, provided the following insight:

“However, this was a situation beyond Ogundipe’s military capabilities and he could not assert his authority over the northern troops”

Then on the 123rd page of the same book, Siollun wrote:

“To the Northerners, the only way that the federation could continue without dissolution was on the basis of a Northern soldier replacing Aguiyi-Ironsi”.

With that, Ogudipe’s fate was seal.

For Ogundipe his fate was sealed:

1 By Northern Officers, Non Commissioned Officers NCOs and ranks led by Murtala.

2 By Northern politicians.

3 The British High Commissioner to Nigeria at the time.Sir Francis Cumming-Bruce

4 The American ambassador Elbert Matthews

5 Top civil servants

They had concluded his Fate and agreed on whom Ironsi’s successor would be. His successor would be an army officer from the North, his junior, the one he sent like Biblical David to the war front, who eventually became King. That officer was Lt. Col Yakubu Gowon, the compromise for getting the Murtala to drop Secession, regardless of the hierarchy of seniority. Ogundipe had become a fish without water.

PROBING QUESTION BASED ON HIS SEALED FATE:

1 Was he a coward or a courageous man?

WHO WAS OGUNDIPE? MAX SIOLLUN’S ACCOUNT

1 Max Siollun, again on the 24th page of the same book, wrote about him this way:

“Brigadier Ogundipe was a veteran who had served in Burma and India during the Second World War. He personality was easier going than those of Brigadiers Ademulegun and Maimalari. He fought in India and Burma as a member of the British army and re-enlisted (this time into the RWAFF) after the Second World War. He also served as Chief of Staff during the Congo UN peacekeeping operation”

Who was Ogundipe 2: On the 117th page of the same book, the author provided evidence of Major-General Welby-Everard’s recommendation of Ogundipe to replace him as the first Nigerian General Officer Commanding the Nigerian army, as a part of the Nigerianization policy of Muhammadu Ribadu, the minister of Defense, Ironsi got the job, Everard’s 1964 letter addressed to the permanent secretary of the Ministry of Defense, read:

“….the outgoing GOC, Major-General Welby-Everard had recommended Ogundipe as his replacement without success. In a confidential report written in 1964, Welby-Everard gave Ogundipe a glowing reference:

“Brigadier Ogundipe has proved himself to be a splendid Commander and has been an excellent influence both on 2 brigades and on the army as a whole. His quite but firm manner is very impressive and his marked leadership qualities produce first-class results. He is greatly respected and held in high esteem by his subordinates of all ranks and by his brother officers. His military knowledge and judgement are very sound and his ideas are always constructive. I have a very high opinion of his character and his outlook is invariably absolutely fair and impartial. He sets the highest standards and will accept nothing less. He has been absolutely loyal to me at all times. . . . . He is fully equipped to be GOC and would make a very good one.”

With this recommendation, when did Ogundipe become a coward in the eye of public perception, especially with the events of July 29-31, 1966

Who was Ogundipe 3:

Siollun, in the same work, on pages 21-22 pages wrote this about the man:

“In 1953 the first Nigerian Sandhurst-trained officers were commissioned: Zakariya Maimalari and Umar Lawan. Later that year, two NCOs Babafemi Ogundipe and Robert Adebayo also underwent short service commission officer training and became officers”

UNDERSTANDING OGUNDIPE’S PREDICAMENT WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE IRAQI ARMY’S, AND SUNNI SHIITES/RELIGIOUS RIVALRY, WITH THE BRITISH INTEREST IN VIEW.

When the complex political web of interest is understood, Ogundipe’s position on the rail tracks with an approaching train would be better understood. The Nigerian Army of July 1966, had a lot in common with the Iraqi army of Saddam Hussein, British interest being the common factor that favoured the minority Sunni over the majority Shiite Muslim, the way they agreed to power going to the North at the expense of Ogundipe’s seniority.

54. Indeed your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in Six Days, and then He Istawa (rose over) the Throne (really in a manner that suits His Majesty). He brings the night as a cover over the day, seeking it rapidly, and (He created) the sun, the moon, the stars subjected to His Command. Surely, His is the Creation and Commandment. Blessed be Allah, the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists)! Qur'an 7.

I didn't really get you, did you say the advice I gave is religious? Which I doubt is.
The places I mentioned anything concerning religion (Islam) were simply due to the fact that he is/was a Muslim.
Our thoughts are wild, verse, widespread. Its stimulated by so many things.
Imagine a Chinese man who was religiously inclined before but now has enlightenment due to their boom in science and technology, because of this now says he wants to divorce his family (the picture am trying to paint, may not be perfect for the scenario)
As a responsible married man, one got engraved with cheating and so think its better to chase his wife out to create enough chance to cheat)
Do you know for every idea/thought we have, there are different ideas in opposite or closely similar to that.
Do you know free thinkers are not under one umbrella, there are different categories of free thinking.
Not every idea or enlightenment that comes to mind is suppose to be executed.
(I know I have it all mixed up there)
Let me make it clear
Op has a sweet happy home, nice kids, beautiful wife and I guess is rich..he was opportuned to have a free thinkers enlightenment. But this enlightenment is threatening is family (which am sure at a time spent everything he had to create)
As someone stated, the human reasoning is not stable, op might just wake up tomorrow say na Buddhist him want be.
Since we can reason endlessly, we should be very careful of the actions we take.
Op hold your family, if its a sacrifice you have to make, make it
Cuz las las we go die, free thinker or no free thinker
The post by @ugjeks says it all
Enjoy your life, don't let one yeye enlightenment destroy what took you time to build. There are too much uncertainty in the world

I might just be saying rubbish
Na op life, anyhow him like make he do
nah beta talk
what Op wants is respect for each other view

if you don't feel comfortable touching someone whom you know his going to be your future husband than I guess there's something wrong with you, I think before getting into mere boyfriend and girlfriend you have to understand each other very well you need to feel each other emotional touch, the Quran is written by cleric even the bible is record of what happened, I keep on saying one thing and that's Islam Christianity is not black race thing God will punish anyone who belongs to this religions why? because you are all using God name in vain creating ruthless law to suppress the poor and to enslave the black race mind which Arabic man or woman will change is name from Kalifaha Hamza,Mohamed to sani shagari or Inusa, none but we keep changing ours to theirs meaning God or Allah doesn't like black race names...... if God doesn't like my black race and why should I like him same goes to the Christian,

Muslim and Christian are losers and a disgrace to the entire black race.
