This saraki na big mumu

This one is not good. If Ambode is forgiven by the people, he must desist from this...

Aregbesola went to see him, his ADC delayed a fellow Governor for almost 4 hours and when he eventually asked for him, the ADC asked Aregbesola to drop his mobile phones because Noone sees the Governor with mobile phones. Aregbesola was angry, he left angrily and Ambode didn't call him back.

Wale Edun made attempts to see him for 3 good years but could not, he was lucky one day, he got him on phone, he told him he wanted to see him, Ambode told Edun to write application. Lol. Wale never did. He ignored him henceforth.

Wale Edun was Commissioner for Finance in Lagos and Ambode was Permanent Secretary Finance in Lagos under Jagaban.

I pray Ambode is forgiven but above all, he must change his attitude. Too bad.

(2)One of those who could have assisted Ambode is Musiliu Smith the new Chairman of Police Service Commission. But Ambode treated him so badly. The man has been attempting to see the Governor for over 6 months. He has called him more than 200 times, phone rang but no response. One day, Smith called Ambode's ADC and asked him to give the phone to his Oga. The ADC pleaded with the Retired IGP not to allow his career end just like that. He said the Governor would sack him instantly if he tried that but he advised Smith to keep on calling the Governor, may be one day the Governor may decide to pick his call. Smith was shocked. He reported Ambode to first to Jagaban, then to Femi Okunu and later to PMB. Recently, Smith asked PMB to stay clear of Lagos Politics and allow the Party to solve their problem.

Smith was calling Ambode to warn him of this perceived danger he had seen long before now so that he can make amends but the Governor must have thought that anyone who calls him is a beggar!!!

A big lesson.

jagaban the lion of Nigeria

Babajide Kolade-otitoju writes:

On this Jagaban issue, every 4 years people come on social media to yell and castigate the man over his political decisions. There are over 18m people in Lagos, over 1000 politicians yet they cannot unseat him. Is this his fault? Are you expecting him to raise his legs and say "hi guys come and screw me over".

He left the AD, formed the AC then ACN, Afenifere, Obasanjo could not unseat him. He lost two deputy governors, Kofo Bucknor and Femi Pedro to the opposition party, Lost Obanikoro, a man he single handedly made a senator to PDP, he lost Jimi Agbaje a close ally also to the PDP.

They tried to unseat him, they failed. Obasanjo and GEJ tried, they didn't succeed. Lagos state had the Minister for works, Ogunlewe, PDP BOT chairman - Bode George, Minister for Defence - Obanikoro, Olusegun Aganga - Trade and Investment but while these notable men go to bed at night, Jagaban stays awake scheming and planning his next move at Bourdillon, rallying the grassroot and then he comes with either the stick or the carrot.

Obanikoro his sworn enemy is back, Pedro is back, Salvador former PDP chairman is back to his camp.
He did not put a gun to anybody's head to wine and dine with him. Why can't they form an alliance to finish him off? We have a choice not to associate with him don't we ?

He has successfully built a battalion of loyalists from 1999 till date. From Fashola to the councilor in the smallest ward in Lagos. Fashola, Osinbajo, Fowler, Lai Mohammed, Ben Akabueze, Ojudu, Ade Ipaye, Rauf, Hamzat, GOS, Gbajabiamila, Faleke, Yayi, Ashafa, Opeifa, Tunji Bello, Leke pitan, Jide Idris, Dele Alake, Mamora and a whole lot of other young brilliant minds.

For every one person he empowered, he got thousands more in return. He identifies the best and use them to his advantage.

Can Bode George or Ogunlewe roll out a list comparable to Tinubu's list? Why haven't they been able to create a formidable opposition to kick him out? They had the federal might for 16 years to their advantage.

To be honest, is he at fault? What do we expect him to do? Crawl under his duvet at Bourdillon or watch African Magic? Why can't other politicians form a concesus?

He is the Lion of Bourdillon and when he roars, his lionesses and cubs will respond. Unless a stronger pride emerges, he will continue to rule this jungle. It is the law of nature, sentiments dont matter. He is already scheming for 2023, 4 years ahead of these docile politicians.

Meanwhile there is still room to challenge him, please go ahead and vote against his candidate if you feel aggrieved.

*All these happened yet some people kept quiet, now they are talking nonsense.*
*Bishop Bolanle Gbonigi led a delegation to protest the lopsidedness twice. "Jonathan promised to do something about it; he never did". "OPC founder, Faseun, took two-page advert in The Guardian in November 2011 to draw attention to it; nothing was done to correct it".*
*Many have forgotten it was like that in the First Republic. Akintola kept drawing our attention to it, but his outcry was overshadowed, indeed drowned, by the crisis in the Action Group. He always spoke of Ikejiani, Iketa-ani!!!*
*An aspect of efforts to correct it with Richard Akinjide as Education Minister led to crisis at Unilag instigated by Dr. Ben Nwabueze, now Professor. Akinjide sought to replace Prof. Eni Njoku with Prof. Saburi Biobaku. You may wish to remember that he was stabbed by an Adams, a Yoruba student in our accustomed detribalization and liberalism. Until Akinjide became minister of education under Balewa, the Yorubas hardly got federal scholarships. If at all it was tokenism.*

*Among the first set of Yorubas to benefit from Akinjide's attempted redress in 1965 was Professor Akinyemi to pursue his higher degrees at Cambridge. At the time just go to Yaba Tech, or NBC, especially Voice of Nigeria headed by Chinua Achebe, yes the same Achebe.*

*Go to all the Federal Govt parastatals of that era. What of federal civil service, particularly the upper echelon. It was then speculated at the time that the reason Zik did not cooperate with Awolowo in 1959 to form Govt was so that he could put his people in different vital positions in pursuit of his dream that it was a matter of time when the Igbos would dominate and rule the whole of Africa. At the time Njoku was at Unilag, Kenneth Dike was the Vice Chancellor at the University of Ibadan, appointed over the head of his superiors, "Oladele Ajose" who was in fact the only black already on the Academic Board of UI; Dr. Sanya Onabamiro; and Dr. Victor Oyenuga. Dike and Hezy Oluwasanmi were on the same level, the fourth ring. Dr. Francis Ibiam was chairman of Council. So, he went to London University to lobby for Kenneth Dike, his kinsman. Incidentally, Dike was in Canada at the time on sabbatical.*

*The Yoruba academics then led a protest delegation to Chief Awolowo at Oke Ado. He calmed them down and said the answer was in the West setting up its own university. He asked them to give him a paper. That was what led to the founding of the University of Ife!!!.*

*While Dike held sway, the halls, catering, drycleaning services were all dominated by Igbos.*

Enabulele George Osaze
Let me add to this, President Goodluck Jonathan removed General Dambazzau as the COAS and replaced him with General Ihejirika, he removed Afrikiya Gadzama as DSS boss and replaced him with Ita Ekpenyong, The economy team of this govt is dominated by Southerners but nobody is talking about it because it does not suit their narrative.

Dino is a fuckin scapegoat,he need to know how to respect his elders

I will always support jagaban of Nigeria I dey tinubu side sure man

one thing I love about buhari government is that my country is producing rice for now,I don't care maybe one person lie or not buhari till 2023.Bleep PDP party

Prior to  2015, Tinubu was desperate. He wanted the  PDP and Jonathan dislodged. It had been impossible to forge a formidable alliance in the past. The PDP looked invincible.

So he needed Buhari. Buhari had retired from politics. He was retired by frustration. But everyone knew Buhari was a major political asset. The sort of asset the Tinubu machinery needed to gather votes in the north. And to burnish their law and order credentials. So Tinubu and company literally resurrected  Buhari. They knew it was risky. But they knew that losing to the PDP again was perhaps extinction.

The prospect of an energized and oiled Buhari’s ship emboldened dissenters in the PDP. Compromises were traded and they jumped ship. That ship anchored in Aso rock in 2015.

Buhari had sought free hand. He was promised free hand. There were no conditions because his drafters were desperate. After he won, he exercised his prerogatives without addressing his mind to the debt of gratitude he owed Tinubu. So he picked Tinubu’s renegade boys. And left Tinubu’s preferred nominees.

Tinubu sulked. He tried to influence the senate leadership. Buhari opted to remain aloof.  He tried to foist his boy on the house or reps. Buhari didn’t stand publicly by him. Buhari’s diffidence meant that neither Buhari nor Tinubu nor the APC determined the leadership of the National Assembly.

Tinubu was worried by Buhari’s elusiveness.

Tinubu must have weighted his options. He thought of contesting the presidency through another platform. After Ondo he threw a tantrum. He thought of shattering the party. Buhari’s illness called for patience. He waited and waited. The cabal ran circles around everybody. Buhari’s wife couldn’t stand the circus.

Buhari returned. They expected action. Nothing.

Then Atiku left.  Tinubu’s stock rose. Everyone including the president began to refer to him publicly as the sole leader of the party. Tinubu was not fazed , he  knew he was still  impotent.

Then Obasanjo and IBB wrote their letters. They  tore through Buhari’s clothes and eroded to some extent the legitimacy of his candidature for 2019. Buhari became politically naked  and  vulnerable.

So Buhari sought Tinubu.

It dawned on Buhari. He needed  Tinubu very badly. Not so much for votes. Yes he would need southwest votes. and he would need his machinery.  But the  authentication of the  legitimacy of his candidature was the immediate necessity.

If Tinubu  had pronounced Buhari’s tenure a failure and asked him not to contest like  the others , Buhari’s candidature would have been fractured. It would have suffered a massive internal hemorrhage.

So  the tide has turned big time.  Buhari would have needed Tinubu for 2019. But no one knew he would come to need him so desperately even before the elections.

Buhari who has shown political naivety for 3 years has  for once played smartly . He is suddenly awake and alert

In handing over the reconciliation of the party to one man rather than a committee, the president has avoided a down the middle split in a fractious party. The president has literally handed  enormous powers to Tinubu. These are no ordinary reconciliations.

They are power sharing and suspensions and expulsions.

Tinubu understands the leverage he has. He knows he can mend the party and foster his personal clout within the party in the next few months. He is already at work. People will grumble. But they know when  Buhari delegates authority , he delegates it.

Buhari will endorse Tinubu’s peace plans and many aggrieved powerful people ,including governors, will  sulk and succumb rather than walk away.  But Tinubu will not finish this assignment without extracting a pound of flesh from Buhari. Once beaten twice shy. Tinubu knows he was sidelined by the cabal. Tinubu knows he can be sidelined again. But Tinubu has reached great heights in Nigerias politics because he is a tactician.

He can push shove and stab. He is not an Imam.

Tinubu knows that his legacy will suffer a dent if the APC fails after 2019. I know he will  not fail to tie all loose ends meticulously , neatly .

Or rock the boat.

But his opponents are also waiting for him.

I am watching.

tomakint:
This funny looking Tinubu knows no shame I wonder what type of drugs he takes to make him look this stupid before his enemies. If I may ask, what is he doing here now?

stop smoking weed, I know tinubu is all east problem

Alariiwo:
Tinubu is the next in line after PMB.. there's nothing you Ibos can do about it.

Continue rejoicing over Tinubu and APC's conflict. E go do una like film.

nice one bro don't mind that foolish IBO boy they are just jealous jagaban,tinubu is there big problem in South east

nairavsdollars:
Following the humiliation he suffered at the NEC meeting of the APC yesterday, South West leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu should listen to the voice of reason and quit politics before a more serious humiliation in 2019 from Buhari and his cabals if he wants to continue to remain relevant in Nigeria.

When Jonathan and other PDP leaders humiliated Obasanjo, he quickly tore his card and called it quit. That is why he is still managing to remain relevant today even though his coalition was not taken serious by Nigerians.
Those who love Tinubu should advise him to retire from politics now before IT IS TOO LATE!

your weed is to much my brother everyday tinubu dis tinubu that tinubu wetin tinubu do 4 u

Chaiiiiii!

Who let you guys in on this one?

Ayaf died o!

The words Yoruba Demon started as a joke on social media around 2015 and has now become a tribal slur on our nice, gentle, good looking young Yoruba men.

A Yoruba demon is a young good looking man of Yoruba origin (who else), who has a way with women. He is a seducer who lures women into his bedroom. He is said to be a playboy whose sole mission is to break the hearts of innocent women. He has a silver tongue, many girlfriends and an overactive sex life

A Yoruba demon is typically a young man of Yoruba descent who has the uncanny gift to effortlessly make ladies fall head over heels in love with him. He is naturally a gifted smooth talker, a born Casanova and prides himself in been able to acquire a huge followership of female admirers and side chicks. He is also gifted at absolving himself of any responsibility in his relationships. Generally, he is a seductive cocktail of sweet and bitter.

There is no going back after you date a Yoruba demon, you keep coming back for more.

He goes after a young lady's heart with no intention of loving her. They are typically seen at parties and would most likely wear big agbada.

They sometimes are seen in groups. To young women they are the Pied Piper of Nigeria!

Since a picture is worth a thousand words so I'm going to post a thousand pictures here.

First, you've got to know them.

stupid man with fake story

The senator representing Ogun East senatorial district in the National Assembly, Sen. Buruji Kashamu has urged those advising President Muhammadu Buhari not to run for second term to let the electorates be the judge.
He said that Buhari had won his first term on three main campaign promises: fighting corruption, overcoming insecurity and plugging the loopholes in the economy.
The senator added that the administration had performed in most of those promises, although it was up for debat, and so the president’s detractors must let the voters be the judge.
The opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senator also advised the party to ensure its members get justice so it can forge ahead and challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
He said, “Every Nigerian is entitled to his opinion. Freedom of speech is one of the essentials of democracy. The President is constitutionally entitled to seek re-election and that is undeniable. The electorate should be the ones to decide whether they want him to continue in office or not since the issue of satisfactory performance is relative and might be subjective. For instance, it is common knowledge that the President promised to deliver on three things – to fight corruption, insecurity and fix our economy. Now, the jury is out as to whether he has delivered on the three programmes. But, no one can deny that he has blocked many leakages in our treasury through the implementation of the Treasury Single Account (TSA), the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS), Government Financial Management and Information System and the Efficiency Unit of the Federal Ministry of Finance, among others.
“The Federal Government has also decimated Boko Haram. Unlike before, the insurgents are no longer in control of any Nigerian territory. Again, although not all the Chibok girls are back, a good number of the girls have returned and back in the warm embrace of their families. While those in support of the President’s re-election could say that his anti-corruption war has helped to stabilise our economy and saved it from recession, those against it could argue that he is fighting corruption and insecurity at the expense of the economy.
“Others could say that though the administration is fixing critical infrastructure, there is no stomach infrastructure and that it is those who are alive that can use the infrastructure. But, there are those who also believe that fixing the critical infrastructure will guarantee stomach infrastructure on a more sustainable basis.
“In my candid opinion, integrity is of the essence in all human endeavours and I am yet to see one person who can question the integrity of Mr. President. This, to me, is a very important ingredient in leadership. This might have informed the recent choice of President Buhari by the African Union (AU) as its anti-corruption champion.”
Kashamu commended the Governor Seriake Dickson-led Reconciliation Committee of the PDP for doing a good job of exploring ways to find peace and cohesion within the party.
He added, “The committee is doing its very best in reaching out to all the aggrieved members of the party with a view to ironing out all the grey areas. And I think that is a very commendable initiative,” he said.
“We are talking and I hope that at the end of the day, justice will be done in such a manner that none of the contending forces will be shortchanged,” the senator said.
The senator criticised Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose for “running in and out of courts to enforce what he called his rights. Yet, the same person can gleefully deny others their rights to the constitutionally-guaranteed term of office.”
“He is going nowhere. In fact, no reasonable Presidential candidate will pick a cantankerous and inordinately ambitious person as his running mate.“Any Presidential candidate who picks Fayose as his running mate endangers his life should he win.”

Ralph Uwazuruike, founder of the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, has alleged that if Bola Tinubu, national leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, was an Igbo man, governors from the South East would have sent him on exile from the region.

He observed that governors in the South East never respected those that, “anointed” them into power.

In a chat with Punch, Uwazuruike maintained that such, “retrogressive mentality” is responsible for the retrogression in the South East.

Uwazuruike said, “If an Igbo man sponsors another person to be governor, that governor becomes his enemy the next day. Juxtapose it with what is happening in Yoruba land.”

“If (Bola) Tinubu had been an Igbo man, he would have gone on exile. Look at how many governors he anointed in Yoruba land; they all pay him respect up till today. If it were to be in Igbo land, they would send him out of town immediately. He will not live in Igbo land because they will chase him out. Look at all the Igbo who were anointed governors. How many of them respect those who anointed them?

“That is the mentality of the Igbo man, retrogressive mentality; the mentality that leads to nowhere but doom. So, what Nnamdi Kanu did was of no difference because it is the typical nature of the Igbo man. That is what makes the Igbo man to be backward and they will continue to remain backward until they change their ways of life.”

Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki has disclosed the details of a conversation he had with superstar Nigerian musician, Wizkid.
He made the revelation in his keynote address at the Georgetown University African Business Conference in Washington DC, United States on Saturday.
Saraki said that the artiste, who is widely regarded as Nigeria’s biggest music export, told him how he (Wizkid) sold out 40,000 tickets for a concert in Gabon, a Francophone country.
The former Kwara state governor said Wizkid also told him that he was astonished that Gabonese fans could fill the venue of his concert despite not understanding a word of his lyrics.
Saraki said, “Our Entertainment industry, which has grown tremendously over the last 20 years – provides us with value addition and a comparative advantage – as our artists have risen from local champions to global recognition.”

Founder and leader of the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, Chief Ralph Uwazurike, has described the Igbo as foolish.

The MASSOB founder insisted that Igbo may not become Nigeria’s president because they only fight for their pocket.

Speaking with Punch, Uwazurike recalled how Igbo was pushed aside after forming the former ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in 1999.

He insisted that anyone calling for the unity of Nigeria does not mean well for the already troubled nation.

His words, “Remember, it was the Igbo man that formed this PDP but they snatched it from him. Then, it was clear that an Igbo man would be the President of Nigeria. But in Jos, it was the Igbo who robbed themselves of that opportunity. The Igbo at that political event in Jos started speaking Hausa.

“The Igbo started sponsoring (Olusegun) Obasanjo against (Alex) Ekwueme; giving N100 million and all that to another tribe to emerge. Let me tell you, the Igbo tribe is the most foolish tribe I have ever seen in the world.

“While the Yoruba embraced unity, the Igbo man was the person speaking Hausa in Jos; the Igbo man was the one donating money against his own brother in Jos to another candidate.

“Is that a wise tribe? Then, who should I apologise to for using the word ‘foolish?’ Then what have we achieved from the PDP? For how many years have the Yoruba people used the PDP? Eight years! Now, when it was the turn of the South-East, they sent it to South-South.”

whether you like it or not buhari will win if he contest 4 the second time.Good work my presido

sisisioge:
Noticed how forking defensive the Moslems are? They wont even let you comment on their threads without agreeing to accept Islam! Forks! It is so forking annoying! I know you would probably ban me now

What the fork are they so afraid of? Yeah, there are tons of Christians loonies too and we aren't holding a gun to any critics head. Whew!

why ban u,I know u don't read it u just come here to comment rubbish

During my Christian days there were many verses in the Bible that made me question the religion I was following (Christianity). There was one particular verse, 1 Thessalonians 5:17 which says; "pray without ceasing," that lingered heavily in my mind. I often wondered how a person (Christian) was supposed to pray (be in a state of worship) without ceasing? Without any biblical or divine guidance, the only way I thought this to be possible was to always do good deeds and keep the remembrance of God on my tongue and in my heart.
However, I found this to be impossible to do as a human being. But when I was introduced to Islam in 1987, and began to read and learn more about this way of life, I found that Islam provided divine guidance both from God (Allah) and Prophet Muhammad (SAW) by which a person could pray (be in a state of worship) without ceasing, if it was the Will of God.
Whether waking up, eating, sleeping, putting on clothes, being in the presence of a woman, looking at a woman, going shopping, going to the bathroom, looking in the mirror, traveling, visiting the sick, sitting in a non-religious meeting, taking a bath, having sexual intercourse with one’s wife, yawning, cutting you nails, sneezing, greeting people, talking, hosting guests at home, walking, exercising, entering one’s house, praying and many other acts, Islam and the guidance therein of the Quran, and the acts and sayings of Prophet Muhammad (SAW), provided ways in which I could observe 1 Thessalonians 5:17. In addition, it allowed me to be at peace with myself and in submission to the one True God - Allah (SWT).
This divine guidance of Islam taught me greatly about my duties, responsibilities and birthright to my Creator (Allah), and more about the religion of Christianity as a Muslim, I [By the Will of Allah (SWT)] felt it necessary to share with you how the Bible led me to Islam.
Christianity
Given the fact that there has never been in the history of the Torah (Old Testament) the religion of God to be named after a Prophet (i.e. Adaminity, Abrahamity, Mosanity, etc.), I hope to explain that Jesus did not preach the religion of Christianity, but a religion that gives all Praise and Worship to The One God.
One of the questions I asked myself as I took an objective (second) look at Christianity was; where did the word Christianity come from and was the word ever mentioned to Jesus? Well, I did not find the word Christianity in the Bible, not even in a Bible dictionary. Specifically, I did not find in the Bible where Jesus called himself a Christian.
The word Christian was first mentioned by a pagan to describe those who followed Jesus. It is mentioned one of three times in the New Testament by a pagan and Jew in Antioch about 43 AD, (Acts 11:26, Acts 26:38 and 1 Peter 4:16) long after Jesus left this earth. To accept the words of pagans as having any value or association with divinity, Jesus or God is contrary to the teachings of all Prophets.
Jesus prophesied that people would worship him uselessly and believe in doctrines made by men (Matthew 15:9).
"But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." This verse, Matthew 15:9, is further supported by these words of the Quran:
"And (remember) when Allah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): "O Jesus, son of Mary! Did you say unto men: "Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allah?" He will say: "Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though I do not know what is in Yours, truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower o fall that is hidden and unseen.
Never did I say to them aught except what You (Allah) did command me to say: ‘Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord.’ And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were a Witness to all things. (This is a great admonition and warning to the Christians of the whole world)." (Al-Ma’idah 5:116-117)
I found that Biblical verses like John 5:30, John 12:49, John 14:28, Isaiah 42:8 and Acts 2:22 support the above mentioned verses of the Quran.
Before leaving the subject of Christianity, I should mention one small point of observation. If Christians are Christ-like, why are they not greeting each other with the words; Peace be with you (Salamu Alaikum), as Jesus did in Luke 24:36. As you may be aware, the greeting from one Muslim to another Muslim is Assalamu Alaikum; a Christ-like saying.
Various Holy Bibles
It is worth mentioning that the Bible references cited might not be exactly as the Bible you are using. There are MANY Bibles on the market that are used by different Christian sects and all of these sects say that their book, though different, is the word of God. Such Bibles are: The Revised Standard Version 1952 & 1971, New American Standard Bible, The Holy Bible; New International Version, the Living Bible, New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures used by Jehovah Witnesses, Roman Catholic Version and the King James Version. A special note: I have not found in any of these Bibles where the "New Testament" calls itself the "New Testament," and nowhere does the "Old Testament" call itself the "Old? Testament." Also, the word "Bible" is unknown within the pages of the Bible.
In addition to the many different Christian sects and Bibles, I have learned that there are also different men, not Prophets, who founded these sects and are using various interpretations of the Bible and/or man-made doctrines as their creed.
I would like to share with you some thoughts that you may not have read or known about the Bible being the word of God. Briefly, let me mention that on September 8, 1957, the Jehovah’s witnesses in their "Awake" magazine carried this startling headline - 50,000 Errors in the Bible. If you ask a Jehovah’s witness about this headline, it may be said that today most of those errors have been eliminated. How many have been eliminated, 5,000? Even if 50 remain, would one attribute those errors to God?
Let me pose another question: if a "Holy" book contained conflicting verses would you still consider it to be Holy? Most likely you will say of course not. Let me share with you some conflicting verses both in the Old and New Testaments:
II Samuel 8:4 (vs) II Samuel 8:9-10 II Kings 8:26
II Samuel 6:23 Genesis 6:3 John 5:37
John 5:31 I Chronicles 18:4 I Chronicles 18:9-10
II Chronicles 22:2 II Samuel 21:8 Genesis 9:29
John 14:9 John 8:14
Only two contradictions of the New Testament have been mentioned, but others will be referenced when the Trinity, Divinity of Jesus Christ, Divine Sonship of Jesus, Original Sin and Atonement are reviewed.
How could the "inspired words" of God get the genealogy of Jesus incorrect (See Matthew 1:6-16 where it states 26 forefathers up to Prophet David, and Luke 3:23-31 says 41 in number). Or for that matter, give a genealogy to Jesus who had NO father? See II Kings 19:1-37, now read Isaiah 37:1-38. Why is it that the words of these verse are identical? Yet they have been attributed to two different authors, one unknown and the other is Isaiah, who are centuries apart; and yet, the Christians have claimed these books to be inspired by God.
I looked up the word Easter in the Nelson Bible dictionary and learned that the word "Easter" (as mentioned in Acts 12:4) is a mistranslation of "pascha," the ordinary Greek word for "Passover." As, you know Passover is a Jewish celebration not a Christian holiday. I think human hands, all to human, had played havoc with the Bible.
From the brief points mentioned above, and the fact that Biblical scholars themselves have recognized the human nature and human composition of the Bible (Curt Kuhl, The Old Testament: Its Origin and Composition, PP 47, 51, 52), there should exist in the Christian’s mind some acceptance to the fact that maybe every word of the Bible is not God’s word.
As a side note to this subject, let me mention that some Christians believe that the Bible was dictated to Prophet Muhammad (SAW) by a Christian monk, and that is why some of the biblical accounts are in the Quran. After some research, I found that this could not have happened because there were no Arabic Bible in existence in the 6th century of the Christian era when Muhammad (SAW) lived and preached. Therefore, no Arab, not even Prophet Muhammad (SAW) who was absolutely unlettered and unlearned, would have had the opportunity to examine the written text of the Bible in his own language.
The Gospels
If you read Luke 1:2-3, you will learn, as I did, that Luke (who was not one of the 12 disciples and never met Jesus) said that he himself was not an eyewitness, and the knowledge he gathered was from eyewitnesses, and not as words inspired by God. Incidentally, why does every "Gospel" begin with the introduction According to. Why "according to?" the reason for this is because not a single one of the gospels carries its original author’s autograph! Even the internal evidence of Matthew 9:9 proves that Matthew was not the author of the first Gospel which bears his name:
