Says officials connive with politicians to rig
elections
THOUGH the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) is supposed to be an unbiased
umpire as regards electoral matters, the body is to
some extent bogged down by electoral malpractices.
According to the Chairman of the INEC, Prof.
Attahiru Jega, electoral fraud is perpetrated by
officials of his agency in connivance with politicians.
Jega, who noted that the actions of such members
and ad-hoc staff of the commission had continued to
rubbish the efforts of the commission in
transforming the process of electing public officers,
was reacting to various criticisms which the
commission received from some chairmen of
political parties and stakeholders who converged on
Abuja yesterday to witness the official unveiling and
public presentation of Strategic Programme of
Action of INEC from 2012 to 2016.
The INEC chairman noted, however, that many
officials of the commission who were identified to
have compromised standards had been either
prosecuted or dismissed from their duties in an
internal exercise without media hype.
Earlier in their reactions to the INEC strategic
programmes for credible elections, three different
chairmen of political parties , Chiefs Sam Nkire of
the Progressive Peoples Alliance (PPA), Chekwas
Okorie of the United Progressive Party (UPP) and
Victor Umeh of the All Progressive Grand Alliance
(APGA) had taken turns to urge INEC to improve on
its efforts to weed out the bad eggs in the
commission, stressing that their activities had
continued to inhibit the efforts of the commission as
well as cast doubts in the minds of Nigerians in
delivering a free and fair general elections in 2015
and beyond.
While Nkire stressed the need to checkmate some
corrupt INEC officials who he said had given INEC a
bad image by working in hand with security
operatives from the army and police to rewrite
election results, Okorie noted the need to expedite
action on the Electronic Voting System (EVS), saying
it would limit the mistakes of the commission.
On his part, Umeh urged INEC to review its position
on the recruitment of ad-hoc workers, saying that
given some of their actions, they posed great threats
to the success of INEC’s efforts in conducting credible
elections.
In his remarks, the United Nations Development
Programme (UNDP) representative, Prof. Sam Egwu
restated the organisation’s confidence in INEC and
its agencies, stressing that UNDP had continuously
voted its money for the Democratic Governance
Project (DGP) in the country that led to the
organization of a free and fair election in 2011. The
agency, however, urged the INEC chairman to use
the opportunity of the 2015 elections to improve on
its 2011 performance which was adjudged to be
credible by the UNDP
“For the avoidance of doubt, UNDP is actually
supporting the INEC with a number of partners that
we are familiar with. But more importantly, as we
commend the leadership of INEC for remaining
focused on the desire to improve on the credibility of
the 2015 elections beyond the remarkable
achievements of the 2011 elections, we also urge the
commission to improve. The strategic plan that is
being unveiled today we know has been a very long
and intensive consultative process which INEC
leadership has been engaged for the past one year.
The strategy we believe is not just to prepare for the
2015 elections, but to put in place a programme to all
relevant stakeholders that can lead to the ownership
of process as well as ensure that the electoral system
will become stable for the progress of the country. It
is our belief that we have produced a strategic plan,
INEC will follow through to… so that by 2015 and
beyond, we will look back and say that we have put
our money to support Nigeria in the areas that
matter most,” the UNDP representative stated.
Earlier, Chairman, Senate Committee on INEC, Andy
Uba who was represented by his deputy, Senator
Abdukadir Jagere, said that democracy could only be
said to have been sustained in Nigeria if INEC
improves on the gains of 2011 general elections.
The INEC Programme of Action Plan which spans
five years has the following as core objectives:
. To provide electoral operations, systems and
infrastructure to support delivery of free, fair and
credible elections;
. To improve voter education, training and research;
. To register political parties and monitor their
operations;
. To interact internationally and nationally with
relevant stakeholders; and
. To re-organise and re-position INEC for sustained
conduct of free, fair and credible elections.
According to the commission’s National
Commissioner and Chairman, Strategic Planning, Dr.
Nuru Yakubu, the action plan is action-oriented and
further seeks to achieve the overall mandate of INEC.

Congratulation to them in advance!

Passengers on board Arik Air flight W3 533, from
Abuja to Uyo on June 21, 2013 are seeking a probe
into the incident that led to the airplane zooming off,
after it had reached between 50 to 100 metres from
the tarmac.
Blaming the situation on the absence of
communication between the aircraft and the control
tower in Uyo, the passengers said except a thorough
investigative panel is set up by the Federal
Government to look into the issue, a repeat of the
situation is likely.
One of the passengers, Mr. Uduak Etuk, who spoke
with journalists in Uyo on Wednesday on the
incident, said it was horrible for them to see the
plane, which landing gear had come down, to zoom
off again. He stated that it was then they realised
that the traffic light in Ibom Airport had gone off.
"Unless an investigation panel is set up to probe the
immediate and remote cause of the incident, the
situation may reoccur, which will definitely lead to
national tragedy.
"We want justice to be done. We want the Federal
Government to hear this and look into the matter,
and investigate what really happened,” he said.

drake2005: Very typical of MO of ignorant Nigerians with no sense of reasoning. If you need to debate me; we can do that respectfully. Define paganism for us? How does it relate to my post? Can you refute my claims? All I stated have been backed up by researchers and the global world for years.

Please define Paganism for us. You must do this since you raised it Now and hence forth, I will intelligently deal with some of you stup$id Nigerians with IQ below 100.

What is this CAT saying?

collynzo2: And the idiot posted that with a device made by white people.

What are you saying?

Nobody will beat you if you type in your mothers dialect!

drake2005: The same White people who inflicted this pain on him and his country men for years, brought Christianity to Africa for us and We Africans continue to stupidly worship it. Most of us are very Stup$id with lack of ability to reason and think critically. Don't know what is wrong with us.

Do you reason with nose?

Please get a functioning brain and don't bring religion into this.

• Senate threatens counter-measure
WARNING of the danger a proposed visa
policy by United Kingdom (UK) poses to the stability
of the Commonwealth, Nigeria on Tuesday stressed
the need to review the move.
The proposed policy would compel visitors from
some countries, including Nigeria, to deposit £3,000
bond before being allowed entry.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Olugbenga A. Ashiru,
Tuesday expressed the displeasure of the Federal
Government over the UK’s policy.
Ashiru, who made government’s position known to
the British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Andrew
Pocock Tuesday, described the proposal “as not only
discriminatory but also capable of undermining the
spirit of the Commonwealth family.”
The new development came as the Senate also
Tuesday rejected the proposed policy, saying it
would not accept Nigeria being part of the list.
The upper legislative chamber threatened that it
would push for a similar policy against the UK
citizens in Nigeria or those seeking entry into the
country by the time Nigeria is officially notified of
the new development.
Ashiru had summoned the British High
Commissioner to a meeting which was held at the
Tafawa Balewa House, Abuja.
A statement issued by the ministry’s spokesperson,
Ogbole Amedu Ode, which was made available to
The Guardian Tuesday, quoted the minister as
recalling with nostalgia, the times when nationals of
the Commonwealth travelled freely to the UK and
other member-states.
“This, no doubt, deepened the strong historical bonds
between the peoples of the various countries who
were all regarded at that time as Commonwealth
citizens,” Ashiru said.
He further recalled that this time-honoured practice
was unilaterally jettisoned by the UK Government in
1985, thereby weakening the bonds of the
Commonwealth family.
The minister further stated that the proposed policy
would definitely negate the joint commitment by
Prime Minister David Cameron and President
Goodluck Jonathan to double the volume of trade
between the two countries by 2014, just as it would
hinder people-to-people contacts, which is one of the
cardinal principles of the Commonwealth.
He pointed out that the decision of the UK
government is coming at the time the
Commonwealth foreign ministers have unanimously
recommended for adoption at the Commonwealth
Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) holding in
Colombo, Sri Lanka, in November 2013, a proposal to
remove visa requirements for holders of official and
diplomatic passports from member- states.
He, therefore, called on the UK government to
reconsider the proposed policy, which is
incompatible with the strong and cordial relations
built over the years between the UK and Nigeria. He
also informed the British High Commissioner that
the Federal Government of Nigeria has a
responsibility to take appropriate measures to
protect the interest of Nigerians who may be affected
by the proposed policy, if finally introduced.
Responding, Pocock confirmed that the policy was
still being developed and expressed regret that the
yet-to-be announced policy was leaked to the media,
as the modality for its implementation has not been
worked out.
He confirmed that some elements in the report are
correct and the policy, could, indeed, affect a few
Nigerians, especially first-time visa applicants.
He further clarified that the proposed cash bond is
not a general visa fee payable by all applicants. He,
nonetheless, assured the minister that the views and
concerns of the Nigerian people and government
would be conveyed to his country.
Also Tuesday, the Head of Press & Public Affairs
Section, British High Commission, Abuja. Rob
Fitzpatrick, in a statement confirmed that Pocock
met with Ashiru on speculation in the press
regarding the possible implementation of ‘visa
bonds’ for Nigerian visa applicants.
Following the meeting, Fitzpatrick quoted Pocock as
saying: “I welcome the chance to set out the facts on
so-called “visa bonds.”
“The British Government has announced that it
intends to undertake a very small scale trial of the
use of financial bonds as a way of tackling abuse in
the immigration system (which occurs when some
people overstay their visa terms).
“The details of a pilot scheme are still being worked
out. No final decision has been made. If the pilot
were to go ahead in Nigeria, it would affect only a
very small number of the highest risk visitors. The
vast majority would not be required to pay a bond.
Those paying bonds would receive the bond back if
they abided by the terms of their visa.
“Let me put this in perspective. Over 180,000
Nigerians apply to visit the UK each year. About 70
per cent or around 125,000, of those applicants are
successful. Travel between our two countries is a key
part of our strong cultural and business relationship.
Financial bonds would be focused on only a tiny
minority of potential abusers. It would NOT be a
“£3,000 visa charge” as some media reporting has
alleged.
“As soon as more details of the policy have been
decided, we will inform the Nigerian government
and public fully and officially, in the spirit of our
long-standing friendship, and our wish to help
bonafide Nigerian visitors to work, study or do
business in the United Kingdom.”
The policy requires Nigerians travelling to the UK to
produce a cash bond of N730,000 (£3,000, $4,600 or
3,500 euros) before they enter the UK, as they are
among country nationals deemed to pose a “high
risk” of immigration abuse.
The House of Representatives Committee on Foreign
Affairs also condemned the policy, saying it is
discriminatory and unacceptable.
Chairman of the committee, Nnenna Elendu-Ukeje,
in a statement issued in Abuja on Monday, said such
policy was not in the best interest of Nigeria and
Nigerians.
“This is totally discriminatory and unacceptable. It is targeted at non-white Commonwealth”, she said.

The best way of thank God is through our praises.

THANK YOU JESUS!

@OP,

How are I'm i sure if you are not the person?

@OP, where is your source?

What Praise is Not
Praise is not:
· Just singing or music
· Just done in Church
· Just a warm-up to worship
· Mindless
· A singsong.
· Just a group expression
· Only for "happy" people
· An optional extra
· To satisfy God's ego
· Ever to be half hearted
· A spectator sport or a performance.
· Sporadic or occasional
What Praise Is
The Bible describes praise in great detail. It gives the
many examples from the lives of many saints in the
Old Testament and the New Testament. Many songs
and words of praise are recorded directly and the
benefits and blessings that accrue from this powerful
practice are recorded in great detail too. Hebrews
13:15 tells us to offer praise to God continually. When
I first read that passage, I thought, "How can anyone
praise God continually? Does this text really mean
what it says?"
In the context the writer to the Hebrews is
contrasting the old and new covenants. Under the old
covenant the smoke of the Old Testament sacrifice
ascended to God continually. Now, under a superior
covenant, we too are privileged to offer to God a
continuous sacrifice, not for sin, but a sacrifice of
praise, and then I saw Psalm 34:1 "I will bless the
Lord at all times. His praise shall continually be in
my mouth." I thought, "But you might go overboard."
Then I thought, " Bob, your problem is not in praising
God too much,. It's in not praising Him enough!"
Praise Is a Sacrifice
I realized that feeling or no feelings, with or without
goose bumps; God invites us to praise Him.and not
just a smattering of sporadic praise, but
continuously. It's to be in good days and in bad days,
in blessings or in adverse circumstances, during
good or bad weather, when I'm exhilarated or when
I'm discouraged - even in sickness or in health. I
don't praise God for adverse circumstances. God is
not the author of evil, but I praise God in adverse
circumstances.
An Option?
Praise is not an optional extra for Christians. Psalm
50:23 says, "Whoever offers praise glorifies me." And
so I realized that our praises always glorify the Lord.
Some people say, "I praise the Lord in my heart
quietly." That's certainly good but God wants us to
use our voices to praise Him. Psalm 66:8 says, "O
bless our God, you people and make the voice of His
praise to be heard."
One woman describes an experience of the power of
praise during a healing meeting: "While I was
worshipping and praising the Lord, I looked up and
saw an angel sitting on the ledge of one of the
windows high above the pulpit. A little doubtful of
what I'd seen, I closed my eyes and began praising
God again. A minute or so later I opened my eyes
and this time the angel was hovering above the
pulpit. He was about seven or eight feet tall with
long, flowing robes of a beautiful grayish white
color. Although his hair and face were the same
color, I could distinguish his features. As I looked at
him, he turned to me with an expression that seemed
to say, "Watch what we're going to do now!" Then he
and several other angels started hovering around the
room. They'd go down and then up to the ceiling,
then back down again, brushing against the
members of the congregation as they praised the
Lord. I watched them for a couple of minutes and
while they hovered over us I was impressed that
they were rejoicing with us as we were rejoicing in
God.
There was a prophecy after the time of worship that
said we had touched God with our praises, and I
knew without a doubt that God had blessed me by
opening my spiritual eyes to see these angels."
Another woman, unaware of what the first woman
had seen, said that during the singing of praises she
had heard angelic voices joining us in praise. After
the praise, the people came forward to testify. Scores
of people crowded the area around the podium and
told of their healings. A young girl who had vision
problems in one of here eyes testified that during the
praise and worship time she saw Jesus come to her,
lay His hands on her eyes, and heal them. Her
healing was verified by her ability to read when
someone held a printed page a few feet in front of
her. She easily read it, something she said she would
not have been able to do before her healing.
But the most dramatic healing involved a two year
old boy with cancer whose mother said he had never
walked more than a few stumbling steps. As tears
welled up in her eyes, she placed him on his thin
legs, and the audience burst into praise as the child
walked across the floor.
The entire healing-miracle meeting was a reminder
that our praise and worship touch something in the
supernatural realm far beyond our understanding - a
fact that should encourage us to commit ourselves to
praise and worship on a much deeper level than our
present involvement. A prophecy during the last
session of the meetings challenged the audience not
to be afraid to enter this deeper form of praise
because it is actually the gate in the King's throne
room.
Our commission and privilege then is to say with the
Psalmist: "Shout joyfully to God, all the earth; sing
the glory of His name: make His praise glorious.Bless
our God, O peoples, and sound His praise
abroad" (Ps. 66:1 - 2, 8 NAS)
As we glorify God's name in this way, it will make an
impact upon the heavens, and we will witness ever-
increasing demonstrations of the power of God in
our own lives and the lives of those whom we touch.
Psalm 22:3 says, "The Lord inhabits the praises of His
people." You know that praise brings the presence of
God and God's presence expels Satan's presence.
Satan is allergic to praise. It does three things to
Satan and evil spirits.
· It paralyzed them
· It binds them
· It banishes them
Praise, also, leads to worship. Praise and worship
are somewhat different. We are told to, "Enter His
gates with thanksgiving, come into His courts with
praise." Praise is the entrance way the door to the
"Presence". The symbolism derives from the
tabernacle of Moses. As we move from the outer
court to the inner court and finally to the Holy of
Holies, our praise changes to worship and then to
sheer Glory and we are in awe of our Lord and
Father God who lavished His love upon us by
sending His son.
Someone said, "You praise until a spirit of worship
comes, then you worship 'till the Glory comes . Then
you remain in the Glory. Genesis 22 comes to mind.
Abraham and his son Issac were making their way
up Mount Moriah. He told his servant to wait
there...that he and the lad would go and worship. I
imagine with tears running down his face but still
hope in his heart, he built his altar and worshipped
Jehovah. This is the sacrifice of praise. There came a
depth of worship in his heart which words could not
express but he bowed his heart and will to the will of
the Father. This is worship and is arrived at, usually,
through praising God for His greatness and His
wonderful attributes..

Dear Nairalanders, let's praise God in a little way with our comments

[quote author=Sunny_bobo]Buhari is a murderer!![/quote]Name one of your family member he kill?

With your reply, i can guess you are below 30yrs.

If your village have a king, go and ask him about Buhari antecedents.

I believe a day is coming that you will show up interest in leading the nation. Your antecedents will also speak for you. Just keep criticising somebody whom you are not even born when the rude the country. PDP is the major sponsor of his propaganda BUT people with fish brain will fall for it.

Enemies of Progress!

This should be move to the joke section.

Because Nigeria cannot have a relationship status.

We have been RAPED by our leaders.

Nigeria is an harlot.

SAI BUHARI...

ANTECEDENTS OF BUHARI:
Buhari is the only good candidate who can transform Nigeria.
He has a vision.
He saw the problem.
He knows the problem.
When he was Military, Then, everybody sat tight.
Nigeria was taking shape.
One naira was just less than a dollar.
There was discipline.
He introduced WAI(War Against Indiscipline).
And there were WAI brigades then, National Orientation agency was functional.
Telling the public what is right to do and what is wrong.
He banned public place smoking before UK did so.
Every home was forced to have a toilet.
Every home with dustbin.
Places we never thought could be clean was clean in days.
If you urinate along the road N50 fine.
Mobile court.
WAI brigades will make arrest and hand you to police.
No bribe along the road Police checkpoints.
If you give bribe you are going to jail.
If you take it you are going to jail.
Your judgement is within days, Not this kind of rubbish.
It was the first time waec GCE candidates who were caught cheating went to jail.
He had started consulting to introduce payment of certain amount to graduates without job before he was impeached before implementation.

Corrupt people who are todays leaders are afraid of him and they will not want him because they all believe they will be jail.

NOTE: When he was there our refinery was fully functional, Fuel price BAM low!

And to all you singers of young president - how many of you voted ur young comrades who contested for the presidency in other political parties to serve as a form of encouragement and also as a testimony of your sincere want for a young president. How many of you belong to a political party or are u dreaming someone will one day knock your door to offer you the candidature of a party? See we should cover our face in shame that the only tin veritable against Buhari is his age and religion - and not that he is corrupt and insensitive to the plight of the masses.
Because Buhari is old I should then vote a clueless
GEJ cos he is young? Because Buhari is a northern I
should then vote the corrupt GEJ cos he is from the
south? So because Buhari is muslim I should vote the vision less GEJ cos he is a "christian"? We need to
start thinking and acting like people that sincerely
want a positive change. It should be progress over
sentiments not the other way round...transforming
Nigeria atm is not a child's play I beg to repeat! Sai
Buhari!!!



Insincerity on what we truly want is a major in
Nigeria. Is the problem of Nigeria caused by age of
our leaders? NO! Is the challenges of our economy a
result of an absence in technocrats? NO! Is the
problem facing us as a nation and our inability to
move forward a direct product of sentiments? YES!
Why can't will just for once be reasonable - if age is
the magic why then is a young and educated GEJ
performing so horribly? Or why is Dimeji Bankole
and the rest "youths" embroiled in massive
corruption? Any reasonable person who is still
thinking freely and not with a bought conscience will attest to the popularity of Buhari and the sincerity of the man's quest for a positive change. When we reason in terms of how old a man is and where he is from rather than the ability to perform then we are indeed our problem. Politics is a game of popularity and numbers - only Buhari can within d frame of two years be sellable cos pushing a new relatively unknown individual as a presidential candidate is a suicide. Age has nothing to do with performance in govt and history has a lot of examples. What we need is progress - sincere transformation and "total" freedom from the bondage of PDP. Our problem is
not about age, sex, tribe, place of birth and other
trivia tinz - our problem is corruption, greed,
insincerity, mismanagement and PDP!!! Buhari is the man! After him a young an vibrant Nigerian can
emerge but not now - to clear the rot in this nation
atm is not a child's play...Sai Buhari!!!


I wonder how age has become a factor for becoming
a president. Jonathan who is in his 50's, what has he
done so far for the country? what has people like
Dimeji Bankole, Farouk Lawan etc who i believe are
in their 40's impacted in the lives of the Nigerian
youth? Absolutely nothing! Corruption knows no age.
Buhari should be given the opportunity to rule this
country. Who cares if he is 100years? what Nigerians want is a true leader who will liberate this country from the hands of PDP.

Oh my God!

My taught was that i will see a picture of where Patience Jonathan is carrying a GUN.

Well, I'm not so disappointed because she is loaded with grammartic errors to blow them apart...

BUT,

Dear Nairalanders, please i advice you to look at the academics background of a woman before you marry her.

This woman na ERROR for GEJ.

O’Odua group warns Yoruba leaders against
alliance with Hausa/Fulani
WITH an accusation that President Goodluck
Jonathan was employing divide and rule against the
North in order to actualise his ambition, the Arewa
elders said Thursday that the region would not
support his candidacy for the 2015 presidency.
The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) spoke during
their Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Kaduna
Thursday to review the year’s events and chart the
way forward for the region.
In another development, self-determination groups
in the South West have urged Yoruba leaders to be
more concerned with the restructuring of the
country and pay less attention to presenting a
presidential candidate for the 2015 general election.
The group also warned Yoruba leaders of being
circumspect in forming political alliance with any
ethnic group that does not believe in the
restructuring of the country to reflect true
federalism.
In a statement in Ibadan on Wednesday, the O’Odua
Nationalist Coalition (ONAC) said that winning the
2015 election should less concern the region than
restructuring the country. It noted that, “elections are
short-term solutions while restructuring of the
country offers an enduring solution to the
contradictions of Nigeria, a country that continues to
stifle the populace.”
Meanwhile, the ACF National Chairman, Alhaji Aliko
Mohammed, drew attention to the activities of some
prominent Arewa elders, Gen. Lawrence Onoja (rtd)
and Senator John Wash Pam, who were alleged to
have told Jonathan that the North was backing his
2015 presidential ambition.
He said: “It is very sad that the Presidency has
employed divide and rule against the North. It is
very glaring because we noticed with dismay that
some members of this organisation have gone to the
President and assured him that he must contest the
2015 election.
“I am speaking particularly of two gentlemen, Gen.
Lawrence Onoja (rtd), and Senator John Wash Pam.
We were surprised that really they have gone to see
the President. We have gone with Onoja to every
meeting we have held, and for him to turn round to
say the President must contest in 2015, using the
word, ‘must’ is unacceptable.”
Besides, they remarked that the divide and rule
tactics employed by President Jonathan against the
North would be counter-productive to his political
interest in 2015.
Mohammed warned that the North would not
compromise its political interest, as he advised all
Arewa leaders: “It is necessary to come together for
common vision, goal, strategy needed to negotiate
from the position of strength and secure a
favourable camp in politics.”
However, he urged politicians to adhere strictly to
the directives of the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) on issues of 2015 elections, just
as he asked INEC to make arrangements to conduct
all elections in one day to guarantee free and fair
election in 2015.
He said: “We have noticed really that for free and
fair elections in 2015, we think there should be only
one election day. We also feel that it is going to be
cheaper.”
Meanwhile, a report by the ACF Secretary General,
Col. Shehu (rtd), read: “There is nothing much to
change in the structure of our federation unless we
give in to the short-sighted agitators pressing for the
break-up of Nigeria to enable them have resource
control.”
In a statement by ONAC Assistant Publicity
Secretary, Mr. Ayoola Ajayi, the body warned that
never had history produced any meaningful alliance
between the Hausa-Fulani in North and the Yoruba
nation, stating that Chief Obafemi Awolowo did not
at any time attempt an alliance with the largely
reactionary and feudalistic North.
It added: “The alliance of the Yoruba people should
be with progressive and pro-restructuring forces in
the middle-belt, the South-South and the South-East.
The Hausa-Fulani North will forever repel any
attempt to restructure Nigeria. Our alliance should
not be with feudalists.
“More than any time before, Yoruba people must
speak up and ensure the race is not sacrificed on the
altar of northern political interests.”
Nevertheless, it cautioned the Niger Delta on the
consequences of supporting a presidential candidate
based on sentiment.
