keywords to fulfill wat exactly huh

and which law is he speaking of huh
Read carefully and be objective bro, take statements as they are written, and do not suggest an implicit meaning unless the statement points to that connotation beyond reasonable doubt.Let us try and understand this statement: "i have come not to destroy the law but to fulfill the law".By your interpretation you assume law means prophecy.Law in this respect could mean prophecy as well, because in the context of Mathew chapter 17, verse 18: "none of the words of the law will go unfulfilled".Jesus must be drawing our attention to the prophecies.But by using the word law, you cannot immediately conclude that he was referring to prophecy in place of commandments.he could be referring to both, which is clear in verse 19:"therefore anyone who sets aside any one of the least of the commands and teaches accordingly, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven" So you sou see in this context, he was referring to law as a command, you will also notice that he taught his disciples about some of the laws, and modified them, not change(he even made them harder to abide by).Study to show yourself approved.

PHYSIC PLEASE.. sorry for derailing
Two plane mirrors are inclined at an angle of 40o and a ray of light which makes an angle of incidence of 60o with one of the mirrors happens to undergo two successive reflections at the mirrors. Determine the angle of deviation.
Total angle of deviation =angle of deviation off mirror 1+angle of deviation off mirror 2
Total angle of deviation=60+60+20+20=160o

I do hope Nigeria gives him the opportunity to thrive...cz the money is not just meant for school fees alone, but to enable him carry out research that can lead to pioneer discoveries in science and technology; applying knowledge from core subjects learnt in school.

But I think that might be a challenge, cz we focus more on paper than what really is necessary for our university system in Nigeria.
May God guide our leaders right...we need something different from the norm year after year
As much as i am not against awards given to students for their excellence over their peers in the memorization of methods of solving predefined problems in very very basic science, you dont give people money to pursue research activities until they have proven their mettle.that should be in the tertiary institutions.Mind you their are some scientists that are more theoretical than they are practical, but theoretical science(physics for instance) is probably as important as its complementary practical knowledge, you dont conduct an experimental research work, without a purpose or a direction, the theories serve to guide our experimental work, theories could be advanced development of knowledge gained from previous experiments or theories, sometimes a theory could be a total departure from precedence,and those usually lead to breakthroughs.So focusing on paper should be part of our university system. At the research level, it is necessary.so probably you meant to say that, we only read science literature, we largely do not contribute to it.

I have noting to say tongue tongue tongue

BUT y do Muslims eat as early as 5am in the morning and still say they are fasting huh huh huh huh



is just a question huh huh huh pls don't be offended



We are one
That's a tough question to answer, and a little biased, given that you assume that your knowledge of fasting is ultimate(i assume you are a christian). Fasting does not have a specific time duration.As far as you avoid eating for less number of times than you usual, especially as you go about your daily activities.The moslems eat at 5 a.m because the sunnah(collection of teachings of prophet mohammed) tells them to.So this is more specific to their faith.Peace
Politics › Nigerians, What Is The Way Forward? by benji93(op):
In the background of the necessitated but unwritten principle of rotation of power from South to North, then back to South after the completion a full term.I ponder about the extent to which Nigerians understand democracy. A member of this forum recently opined that, Professor Yemi Osibanjo must not contest in the 2019 general elections, he/she was not clear about the elections he/she was referring to(primary or general).Probably he/she was suggesting that no delegate should vote for Prof Osibanjo as the flagbearer of any of the major political parties.This clearly highlights Nigerian politics and the electorates understanding of its context.There seems to be only one kind of election in Nigeria.The general election.It will suffice to say that Nigerians believe that, in Nigeria, a primary election is only by name a kind of election.However practically, it's only a confirmation of a political arrangement by the "court of owls".So by this understanding, i think the aforementioned Nigerian implied that Osibanjo should not be presented as the flag bearer of any political party in Nigeria.Over the years i have heard and seen Nigerians whisper, scream and write excitedly about bad governance in Nigeria.More so politicians encourage people to vote them into power,promising the electorates that they would do better than the ruling government at that time. Gullible Nigerians vote them in , now the purported leader oversees affairs for a while and realizes that,unununun, it's not as easy it seems my friends.Fellow Nigeria, the previous government had emptied the coffers,oh my people the previous government was corrupt, the corruption crept so deep that we can't do much. This begs the question:Is it necessary that we elect leaders who recently held high positions in government?If so then leaders that have not held office for over a decade should not be considered as worthy enough.I am not looking back through time in the current democratic dispensation, given the circumstances surrounding the shift towards democratic rule in 1999.I wouldn't expect much from a leader who had not held any high political office for over a decade.In the following 8 years, there were unforeseen circumstances, even though the "court of owl" expected it.It appears that none of the governments that have ruled thus far had a plan, i mean a fool proof one.A plan that factors in the unforeseen but considerably possible situation.All our leaders so far seem to know less about Nigerians than they claim.This begs a question:Can any leader or aspirant know just enough about the mindset of all the different entities constituting Nigeria and respond to them fairly?.I believe the federal system(not the bastardized version we are practising) should work very well for the case of Nigeria, we do not need a leaders at the federal government that knows the needs of all the culturally different entities of Nigeria, we only need leader that are open minded, blind to ethnicity and sensitive to the needs of all the different entities of Nigeria.There comes another question, all states must have something in common that binds them under a federal system, what do all the different entities of Nigeria have in common?"Geographical Nigeria?".If we have nothing in common, then we either exist as different entities or a greater proportion of revenue generated from each state should go to that state.If Lagos generates 100 billion naira in a year, 30-35 billion should go to Lagos, the rest should be invested into ventures that present all Nigerians equal opportunities.What you sow is what you reap. Someone might ask, what about those that do not have natural resources?Oh yes, i did consider them,and sorry for not having natural resources, that's should mostly be your state government's job, they should develop the capacities of their people.Develop a long term plan of educating their people to be productive, borrow some money from the federal government, and execute the plan.If the federal government realizes your plan is working, they could borrow you more money,until your project is self-sustaining.You can take solace in the fact that most of the most developed countries in the world did not get to revolutionize their economy by depending on natural resources.They developed the capacities of their people.If the issue of power is just to elaborate for the federal government, they should delegate some the power to the state, in the development of smaller dams, the larger dams sourced from larger rivers should be committed for larger power projects overseen by the federal government.Until we set a system such that sate governments reap what they sow,nobody will take their people seriously.The federal government keeps bailing out state government despite not producing much. Giving me 2000 naira everyday without the execution of any task is a disincentive, i swear i will not do anything, i will just sleep, wake up ,eat and receive my pay.Set the state government to work, and the skeletal framework will just be in place.We will have to redefine the extent of the power wielded by the state.We have to conduct a referendum on this.Do we want the state government to do most of the work or not?but i am of the opinion that the the smaller the piece, the more effective the work done.We can say for sure that all the entities in a state have so much in common.It is the responsibility of the people of a state to vote in state leaders,having beliefs rooted in the culture of their state.
If the current government is not doing well, we should blame ourselves. Mostly for not presenting better candidates.partially,For voting in unworthy candidates.Generally, we don't think deeply before making choices,that is why we are not usually objective in our opinions, even the so-called educated.This is not an issue limited to the government, our institutions offer tenure to mediocre Phd holders, how the hell will they produce original research work,research activities that lead to breakthroughs are thus far-fetched.One useless CEO somewhere will complain that the government is corrupt meanwhile you cannot offer a job to a lady without sleeping with her.But until our conduction of affairs of government gets better, we might not be able to tell, if corruption at the local level will subside,we need to change the way we think in order to make good decisions and predictions related to choosing leaders.I also encourage young leaders that sincerely want to lead this country right to put their foot forward, so Nigerians can have better options. but first you must have a plan for Nigeria,experience Nigeria, by occupying a government role, so you can have a better understanding of the system.Then seek for the position at the apex.I am saying this because, some our parents usually tell us that, inorder to become a president in Nigeria, you will have to roll a little in the mud, otherwise, you either get killed or you never get there.Now that has proved true, as most of the leaders that have occupied the highest positions in government thus far have either been clueless or deliberately wicked.in the spirit of true democracy, any body should be able to contest in an election to occupy the position of the president at any time,whatever we may think of their intentions, as far as he/she is eligible.To the great analysts of human intentions, as the vice president of a country, if you do not agree with the president on important issues, or you think you can do better than the president, you have the right to contest in any election, you even have a right to criticize the president, if you realize he is biting more than he can chew.The fact that an undertaking is not generally acceptable doesn't mean it is not the right thing to do.In fact a vice president who took the job to serve the people should admonish his boss if he disapproves of his choices, if his boss decides not to listen, he can express disapproval by taking it public or resigning(No Nigerian leader would do this) or just remain passive and say nothing,do what you are told, just as a zombie.Then contest in an election if you have a plan to fix everything having studied the terrain as the vice president.Who is in a better position to deliver better governance than someone who served in a capacity closest to the ultimate? .I therefore implore all Nigerians to endeavour to become better people away from over reliance on a government.Check all sides of a dice before making decisions.The ball is in your court, fellow Nigerians.Peace.

l had to open this account to tell this story and l know that l will be bashed for this but l really need to get it off my chest.
it was in 2014, that l cheated on him and since then, l have not been myself. l have confessed to Pastors but l can't forget it and my mind keep telling me that God has forgotten about me cos whenever l pray, l find it difficult to concentrate and that's why l want to confess to him.
l know he will send me packing because he said something like that to me and the fear is what is keeping me from confessing to him. l don't want to be disgraced out of my home cos my husband will definitely do it.
l can't blame him for my shortcomings but myself for allowing devil into my home.
l really need your advice for help.... You can curse me but l deserve it for being a loose woman but l seriously need help cos depression wants to take over my life that l think of suicide to escape shame and mockery from people in case he finds out.
I am not judging you.But i will be honest with you.I honestly dont know what you are doing here.Most humans always have that mindset that enables them accept comments that defends them.What you did was very very bad.It is difficult to provide an advise though.I dont think any form of advise here will suffice.But you have done
something very terrible,a burden you will have to carry for the rest of your life.I doubt you will ever truely forgive yourself, particularly , if you dont tell him, you might never find that happiness, if you do, that might be the beginning of waywardness on the part of your husband, if he does not divorce you. I believe you are a christian, does the bible oblige you to confess to your husband?If you will be happy without telling him, keeping your marriage intact, then so be it.But wait ooo, are you sure you wont do it again, because you did it the first time.You must have that tendency(weakness).I hope it doesn't happen again.But if you will always be devastated by that, if you dont tell him, then tell himIf he finds out himself, that my just be the end of discussion.I pray that God grants you the wisdom to make the right choice.

Do you want me to tell you the trust ?

Well don't tell him, somethings are better left unsaid, and honestly that of you feeling God is angry with you is your biggest enemy, so i'll advise you don't listen to that devil, i am even surpised the Pastors you confessed to didn't pressure you to tell him nor did they do aproko, now that's God telling you he has forgiven you, and the only thing you need do is to forgive yourself and let it go, that's when things would turn out great for you, and not by his own forgiveness.

Anyways, your husband is also cheating on you and he didn't tell you, so why should you,, did i hear you ask how i know, well don't get me wrong but to everything we do there is always a reaction for every action taken and the law of karma is very real, what do i mean, all i am saying is; for you to have cheated on your husband, the law of Karma would had taken play, therefore leading him to also cheat on you one way or the other, so chear up, there are worse people than you out there,,, gone are the days we advise couples to come clean, today it's not as easy as at then, things are different now, so let that secret die with you, but if indeed you feel remorseful then never ever repeat such again.

Have a wonderful life ahead and please take good care of the kids and him as well, always that's your way of retribution. grin
What!It appears as if you know a lot about Karma.That is you have experienced Karma in all its ramifications.Are you encouraging Men and Women to cheat, because it will be evened up eventually?

Politics › Re: A Credible Northerner, Not Osinbajo Should Succeed Buhari In 2019 by benji93: 12:01am On Jun 04, 2017
TonyeBarcanista:
By TonyeBarcanista



When he was first elevated to the status of Acting President on 19 January 2017, Professor Yemi Osinbajo embarked on a tour on Niger Delta region. His entourage included Minister of State for Petroleum, Ibe Ikachukwu; Minister of State for Agriculture, Senator Heineken Lokpobiri, as well as the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs. A move seen as a welcomed development by the good people of Niger Delta who saw it as a new chapter to finding lasting solution to the seemingly unending Niger Delta question. Not one of the rhetorical promises made to the people of Niger Delta by Acting President Osinbajo was ever fulfilled or rather, is yet to be fulfilled.

Some of us, however, suspected that the Osinbajo was neither interested in proffering solution to the Niger Delta question but to start a clandestine move to build his political capital ahead of 2019 Presidential election having read his body language.

As Vice President and sensing that President Buhari is/may be medically unfit to stand for re-election in 2019, Professor Yemi Osinbajo shifted his attention to build network in the north all for 2019.

On Thursday April 13, he went to Adamawa state to acquire the title of "Jagaban of Adamawa Emirate". Only yesterday, he went to Cross river state to collect another traditional title in Efik kingdom, Ada Idaha Ke Efik Eburutu. For what reason if not political?

While I recognize that the Nigeria Constitution gives Yemi Osinbajo the right to contest for any office, including the Presidency, I must also state that his clandestine moves to succeed Muhammadu Buhari in 2019 is counterproductive to the interest of Nigerians and threat to the unity of our country, this is aside his sheer incompetency in public service since he assumed office as Vice President, Chairman of National Planning Commission and Chairman of National Economic Council.

This article is not to talk about his preference for employing only people of his Yoruba ethnic group as Personal Aides, all these are stories for some other time. This article is strictly about the injustice that his Presidency will mean to the rest of the country if we allow it to materialise.

1. HIS PRESIDENCY IS UNJUST TO THE SOUTH
In the history of Nigeria, the Southwest and Yoruba nation have led the country for a combined period of 11 years and 11 months; Chief Olusegun Obasanjo held sway for 11 years and 8 months (8 years as President and 3 years and 8 months as Military ruler) while Ernest Shonekan held sway for 3 months.

Meanwhile, the South-south only led Nigeria for only 5 years and 25 days through Goodluck Jonathan, while the Southeast has NEVER led the country in Executive capacity save the 7 months under the military reign of General Aguiyi Ironsi.

Under this present democratic dispensation, SW and Yoruba nation has led the country for 8 years and has been occupying the Vice President office since 2015.

The Southsouth led the country for only 5 years and 25 days and occupied the office of Vice President for 3 years through Dr. Goodluck Jonathan.

The Southeast has neither produced the President nor the Vice President.

Being a multi-ethnic region, it will be highly unfair for one region and ethnic group to seek to occupy the slot of the South in the Presidency in 2019 irrespective of whether it is the office of the President or the Vice President. It will amount to injustice to the ethnic nationalities in the South save the Yoruba for Yemi Osinbajo to succeed Buhari in 2019..

2. HIS PRESIDENCY IS UNJUST TO THE NORTH:
Since the return of this democratic dispensation in 1999, while the South enjoyed power for a total of 13 years (SW 8, SS 5), while the north only did for 5 years and counting through late Umaru Musa Yar’adua (3 years) and Muhammadu Buhari (2 years and counting). If the status quo remains till 2019, the north will haul a meager combined period of 7 years; a far cry when compared with the 13 years that the South held sway.

It is both morally and politically just that the North be allowed to produce the President of Nigeria come 2019 for another 4 years period. We must realize that injustice is injustice anywhere. Allowing Osinbajo, a Yorubaman/Southerner to succeed Buhari in 2019 will only cause disaffection among those in the northern part of the country. There will be feelings of marginalization will crept in. This is a situation the country cannot afford to entertain at this period.

MY SUPPORT FOR NORTH/SOUTHEAST TICKET IN 2019
Nigeria belongs to everybody, it does not belong to a section of the country. While it is fair for power to remain in the north, it is also fair for the Southeast to be part of the equation after years of absence. The only way to allow justice prevail is for a North/Southeast Presidency in 2019.

This arrangement, I strongly believe will calm the nerves of the people of the Southeast, give the Igbo people a sense of ownership in the Nigeria project and a sense of belonging in the affairs of Nigeria.

The Yoruba nation has always stood for justice, I am optimistic that they will stand for what is right come 2019. I have no doubt in my mind that they will not oppose the aspiration of a credible aspirant from the northern extraction and an Igbo man to assume the office of the President and Vice President respectively in 2019.





May God Bless Us All And Bless Nigeria
Hey bros, i beg to differ, you sounded as if, presidents are appointed not elected. Osibanjo irrespective of where he comes from has the right to join the fray of presidential aspirants come 2019.If any southeasterner considers him/herself capable of conducting affairs as the president, he/she should contest in the primary elections of any of the major parties.Every Nigerian that has fulfilled the basic requirements designated by the constitution has the right to contest in any election(primaries and subsequently general).What do you understand by fairness and justice?Allowing power to rotate from south to north, then back to the south?This thoughts only indicate how disunited we are.I dont understand what you want Nigerians to do about your proposal.Do you want us to appoint a South easterner as president? Are you encouraging Nigerians to vote into power a southeastherner as president?You might as well present one during the primaries, noone is preventing you from doing that.There is nothing wrong with Northerners,Southwesterners or Southeasterners contesting in every election.If Northerners win the elections every time, as far as the elections are far, then it's all good.It's obvious we do not all agree about the importance of marginalization with regards to a united Nigeria.Does an Igbo man have to president to settle the age-old problem of marginalization.No.If and when South Eastern governors begin a massive revolution of their states.Maybe then Nigerians will actually consider the thought of voting South easterners into power.Peace

Nnamddi:
Mrs Kemi Adeosun, Minister of finance, has said, she 'thinks' Nigeria is getting of recession.

Nigeria's economy officially entered recession last year and with Nigeria's President, Muhammadu Buhari's ill health, there is no sign of Africa's most populous country getting out of it.

Nigerians are suffering the effects of the economic crisis with prices of goods and services almost increasing by more than 300% in the markets.

Speaking with ChannelsTV on Friday, June 2nd, Kemi Adeosun said, statistics showed Nigeria is getting out of recession.

In her words; "I think we are getting out of recession. All the statistics seems to suggest that but more importantly, we are getting on the path of growth that will be sustainable so we can see a future for Nigeria. So I think it is getting better. We inherited a lot of problems. The Nigerian economy didn’t just need a little bit of fix here and there but needed radical surgery and to heal it will take a little bit longer” she said

http://www.naijahelm.com.ng/2017/06/think-nigeria-is-getting-out-of.html?m=1
Madam, you think ke, given your vested interest in the variables that predisposed Nigeria to recession, that statement sounds like sheer cluelesness to me. I am sure if an interviewer asks you:Mrs Kemi Adeosun, have you been great at your job as the head of the finance ministry, you will likely give the same answer: "i think i am".Madam there are two thing involved, it is either, you are or you are not.It is either it is, or it is not.My piece.

What are you saying, now that storyline is real, isn't it.So if i produce a movie that portrays reality and appears similar to another movie, it means i duplicated it.If you get married do you not have to overcome family and personal challenges? Dont make me believe you are just one of the guys that downplays the implications of plagiarism and copyright infringements.The two movies are a lot different than they are similar.They might have developed the wedding party around a wedding and family challenges, but their content regarding this topical issues are very much different.Its the content that matters bro.Family and personal challenges is a broad issue ,ok.Be objective bro.You could say it was adapted, but it was not copied, at least for most part of it.But the Phyno Mia issue, men it's too serious, from the title to the content.I can pass any judgement yet,i will see how the two artists respond to this.

Usman Danfodio propagated Islam in West Africa.Before that you Yorubas are pegans and christians.You people like twisting a known history,that is why some of you Yorubas said that your forefathers migrated from Saudi Arabia to give your muslism a color.
Hey bros, take your time now, meanwhile,Islam was in contact with the present day Nigeria as early as the 15th century through the Malian empire into Northern Hausaland.Much of what danfodio did was religious reformation.It is unclear when Islam was introduced to Yorubaland, but history indicates it was way before Uthman danfodio, there was Shehu alimi,a conteporary Islamic scholar and others before him. Islamic practices were adapted into the yoruba traditional religion then.YOu need to study history deeply, to avoid spreading untrue information.Whether history is completely true is another thing.But we should tell the history we know to best of our knowledge. Uthman Danfodio did not spread Islam to all west African countries.Maybe in Northern Nigeria.Even today many Moslem yorubas still practise the traditional religion.His radical work towards Islamic scholarship and extrication of syncretism was largely localized in the North. Islam in other west African countries occured way before before Uthman, in some cases, it was introduced through the Malian empire.You are the one twisting history.Study to show thineself approved.Peace

Christianity Etc › Re: Your Opinion: Do You Think King Pharoah Will Go To Hell? by benji93:
holuwajobar:
I may sound like am judging king pharoah but am nt.... According to Roman9:17, God said he created pharoah to exalt himself, to show how powerful He is......so since pharoah has accomplish his purpose on earth, do u think he will make Heaven?? Give reason to ur answer
It is difficult to judge who goes to heaven or who doesn't. It's God choice. Why would anyone even want to know where other persons went after death. God gave life,without life we do not exist.We are his creation,and he can choose to put anyone wherever he pleases.Read romans chapter 9 from vs 10-22. in one of the verses, paul made reference to the story of esau and jacob.God decreed that, the younger would be greater than the elder.No human knows why God did this.We only know what God tells us. verse 22 of the aforementioned chapter Paul said :"What if God, although choosing to show his wrath and make his power known, bore with great patience the objects of his wrath—prepared for destruction? .verse 23:What if he did this to make the riches of his glory known to the objects of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory[b]So Paul gave this instance,now take note of the sign post:"what if"[b].Clearly he probably didnt fully understand why God did it .God does different things for different purposes.Paul's instance could have been the case for Pharaoh.But wait oo, flip the pages of your bible back to the original story, and let's see if it helps our understanding(meanwhile i tried to translate from the torah itself). In exodeus chapter 10 vs 1 [b]"And the Lord said unto Moses: 'Go in unto Pharaoh; for I have hardened his heart, and the heart of his servants, that I might show these My signs in the midst of them". So the question is why did God harden his heart?, we can try to understand this, if we fail, we can move on.But fortunately in a previous chapter, Exodus chapter 9 vs 1-35.Throughout the chapters before and after this the bible tells us God hardened his heart.Even before the first plague,in chapter 7 before the 1st signs.So the hardening of Pharaohs heart could just have been the tip of the fortcoming punishments.By this, i mean the hardening of his heart might have been a punishment in itself.In genesis 15 vs 13, it appears God knew this would happen.but we cannot say for sure it is God that ordained this or foresaw the tribulations of the Isrealites. Down the story, you might even think God created the course.But if you read deeply you will realize that in the development of the events the choices men made were key to the problems that befell them.Also Pharaoh might have suffered for the sins of his fathers.For in the scripture God said, i will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their children until the 4th generation, of them that hate me."Interesting isn't it.So in all sincerity, if we intend to judge Pharaoh, we will have to Judge him by his actions that were outside God's influence.Even in that case, which of his actions were not influenced by God?.I dont know.God is the ultimate Judge.As a christian or Jew, there are laid down principles that you are required to obey.Obey them.You might not be able to obey all of them.Now again, it's God's choice to consider any of your choices worthy of the reward of eternal bliss.Do i know which one?, no i dont, so endeavour to do as much as you can. Oh meanwhile, one of the thief's on the Jesus's side repented at the point of death. Will you have that kind of opportunity before you depart from this world.you don't know? Let us work for the purification of our souls,remembering holy heaven, that the lord may be with us.Peace

Bros/Madam , i dont normally comment on threads of this kind, but your comment was so sincere that i couldn't pass by.Someone brought to your attention the reality of their visit , to the best of the content of the post, but u still maintained your opinion. Pls scroll back up to the main post and read again.The actresses were in India for an event. It was an opportunity to pay a visit to one of the most important places built by one of the most important humanitarians. If you are usually over critical, you could as well try to be as objective as possible, given the information available to you.Stop drawing controversial conclusions from an information provided to you."They should have begun with orphanages in Nigeria".True, but are you sure both of them have never visited any orphanage in Nigeria(meanwhile their are other places they could visit,IDPs for example).Even if this is true, the information given us is just not enough to judge the morality of their visit.They might just have been walking by,or peeping out of the window of a car, and they suddenly came by the children's home, or the children's home was near their lodge.I dey talk to much self.You see "scout mindset" is not learned in schools, if you want to be objective, you decide it to be objective.I odnt care how much degrees you have,bros, this is just not objective ok.
Nooo bros, i never asserted that( they can visit indian orphanages since that there are no differences between indian and Nigerian orphanages).Infact you are making it sound as if, they traveled to india just to visit the children's home.Be careful when passing judgement.Sometimes even the op[ening thread post might be subjective.We dont even know who took the pictures, it could have been not photographer.The post was also not dated on the primary blog.But i found all those pictures on omoni boli's instagram page(i have got unlimited access to the internet). oK.So please just understand you were not subjective. You were jumping into hasty conclusions. Now this statement "otherwise we would not have known or heard about it" is just not true(inconclusive).Those ladies are popular Nigerian celebrities,and there are Nigerians everywhere so you could have still heard about it.Mind you the pictures were ultimately culled from the celebrities' social media platforms, which is usually the case.So you might as well blame the guys that check posts by celebrities and repost them.Or you can blame the celebrities for having twitter accounts in the first place. That would be hypocrisy at the least. You are most probably registered to 2,3 or all the most popularly used social media paltforms.So if this is the case, then what are you too doing opening accounts there, or what are you doing here?Why did you open this thread?the title of the post suggested exactly what you might have expected from the post. Endeavour to see the world as clearly as you possibly can.Peace

Nigerian orphans needs all the help they can get, i believe people should clean the shiit on their shoes first before going all the way to India to clean the shiit on other people's shoe!

Nodogragra4me:
There are styles that pertains to Buhari that Osinbanjo might find repulsive and would want to suspend until he returns and resumes but now can't because a deliberate technical breach has been added to an otherwise straight and clear intentions of the relevant passage of the constitution relating to power transmission to a acting president.

If Buhari stays up to six months in London , we may begin to understand the very intent of that word, coordinator.....He might be allowed to fire some persons and operate up to certain levels but beyond might bring rupture to smooth running of government, after all he is only coordinating things for Buhari
Understood bros, but i believe until the constitution is changed,it still holds.So i guess the main question is how mumuish is Osinbajo?

koning:
Complete delusion. I think you are too young to understand the complexities of governance and the power of words. If Osinbajo is coordinating, he is not acting on behalf of the president.

He should be refered to as "Acting President". Period. Abba Kyari can stop him from signing any important document by claiming that he is taking it to the president to sign in London. In fact he can ground everything to a halt. Lagos - London is only a 6 hour flight. This guy Abba Kyari could fly to London at any time with the excuse that the president asked for this and that file.

You guys should show some courage and fight this situation now. The longer it takes, the harder it becomes. The cabal are hell bent.
So wetin be the problem, fellow Nigerians.What does an acting president do if not coordinate the affairs of a nation, is it different from presidence over the affairs of the same nation as done by the president.I do not know what Buhari was thinking with regards to his choice of words, It sounds evasive and unforthright though.But i am sure the constitution stated explicitly the role of the acting president.Chapter 6 article 145 states that . "Whenever the President transmits to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives a written declaration that he is proceeding on vacation or that he is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office, until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary such functions shall be discharged by the Vice-President as Acting President".I can only assume his function in that stead should be that of the president. He has legal rights to discharge all duties of the president in this repect.If 1 Abba kyari wan come talk something, im fit say no.I dont know if the issue of appending signatures to important documents is true.But i can only assume it is political, it might seem rebellious not to listen to Buhari.But which document go come just like that, the projects must have been ongoing. And they both must have discussed. If Osinbajo just carry document give Abu,dem na im be mumu, but it is sometimes important to tread in caution in such situation.
Crime › Re: Housewife Who Stabbed Husband To Death Over 'baba Ijebu' Bags 7 Years Jail Time by benji93: 12:12am On May 09, 2017
FlirtyKaren:
29-year-old housewife, Onyinyechi Akunne, who was in the news last year after she stabbed her 35-year-old husband, Abuchi Akunne to death during an argument at home, over lotto tickets known as “Baba Ijebu”, has bagged a 7-years jail sentence.

The judgement was delivered at an Ikeja High Court by Justice Josephine Oyefeso, following a plea bargain where the initial charge of murder was changed, to a charge of causing grievous bodily harm to which she pled guilty.


Justice Josephine Oyefeso also rejected a clause in the plea bargain agreement where it
was proposed that the housewife should serve a sentence of community service instead of a prison term.



Before the sentence was pronounced, Akunne’s counsel, P.O. Onu, in her plea for mercy, told the court to temper justice with mercy.

“The defendant is a first-time offender, she is a mother of a toddler which she gave birth to while in prison custody.


Her daughter is a year-and-seven months old, she still has a lot to offer to the society,” Mrs. Onu said.

The judge ordered that the convict’s daughter after weaning her, should be removed from the female prison and be kept in the custody of the relations.



The News Agency of Nigeria reports that during Mrs. Akunne’s arraignment on March 6, the State Prosecutor, C.K. Tuiyi-Carena, had told the court that the accused committed the offence on March 28, 2015 at her residence located at No. 85, Idimu Road, Ejigbo, a suburb of Lagos.



“On the day of the alleged murder, Onyinyechi was preparing a meal while Abuchi was sitting on a chair in their home looking at his “Baba Ijebu” lottery tickets. Angered by her husband’s action, Onyinyechi scolded him for his love for gambling and a fight ensued between them.



She took the kitchen knife she was using to cut vegetables and stabbed her husband fatally in the chest. The stabbing inflicted a deep cut in Abuchi’s chest which led to excessive blood loss and his eventual death.



The victim died before he could be taken to a hospital by Onyinyechi and concerned neighbours,” she said. Mrs. Akunne was pregnant when the offence was committed.

Christianity Etc › Re: What Does The Bible Say About Sex Before Marriage? by benji93:
MrBrownJay1:
Bwaaaaah, here is me correcting you... Abraham had 6kids by Keturah. Here I will copy and paste what I have extensively wrote on the issue....in GENESIS 25:5-6, focus that its written about Abraham's concubineS (with an S, meaning more than 1)
concubine #1 HAGAR.... confirmed!

concubine #2 KETURAH
I Chronicles 1:32 "The sons born to Keturah, Abraham’s concubine: Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak and Shuah.

if you had read your holy book "properly", then you would have seen that it explains Abraham's lineage in details... he had (at least) 8 children by 3 different women. It is written CLEARLY in I Chronicles 1:28-34

Thank me later!
I beg to differ, i do not want to contest keturah's place as a wife, genesis 25 vs 1 referred to her as a wife 'Abraham took amother wife'.At the latter part of it, vs ,5 the children of his concubines were not included in his inheritance. Chronicles referred to her as a concubine.So as to which one is the complete account, we are not sure, but thats beside the point. During the days of Abraham, it might not be considered as a sin because he was not instructed against it. Until there is a strict law prohibiting an act, it is never a sin.This is what i want you to understand.In fact i can exempt David,solomon and co.Laws were only canonized during the life of moses, as to be obeyed by the Isrealites.So we would expect that from thenceforth man suffered for his sins directly or indirectly, because there was a law. Moroever you only commented on Abraham, you should comment on the words of Jesus, on the role fornication plays in the defilation of man. Also deuteronomy 22 vs 13 referred to fornication as immoral, or would you say a person who lost her virginity before marriage could not have been defiled by fornication.Peace

MrBrownJay1:
We are all king David/Abraham or any highly respected men of the bible (Jesus included).... So I will take ALL their different actions that were NOT viewed as sin, and if they ar complete opposite, will chose whatever is best for my life (out of their rightful actions).

If it was NOT a sin ( in the eyes of god) for king David/Abraham etc to have "unmarried" baby mamas/mistresses, then who are these fraudsters in robe to tell me otherwise?!
I know you are including Abraham, but according to the bible the relationship he had with Hagar was while he was Abram, moroever Sarah directed him to do that,as she was childless even in old age. Without a law baring an act, that act cannot be considered sinful.Asides this, while he was Abraham, i have not read in genesis of other extra marital relationships Abraham had.I stand to be corrected. Mark 7-20-23.Jesus explicitly includes fornication as 1 of the activities that defiles a man. Now you can say, thats defiling myself, you are the temple of God.So what does that mean.Also regarding David, we do not suffer for our sins because we do something God loves. Now what does God love in us, in its entirety i cannot explain that.But i am sure of 1 thing, God loves those that listen his words through his prophets. David might not have directly suffered for his sins.We will need to detail the life of all his sons to find out what befell them.Some of them might have suffered for his sins.I mean those that lived sinful lives.Meanwhile the right to rule Isreal safe for judah was taken away from the house of David.You might say this was because of solomon's foreign wives.It might not, also we could consider the house of david just after solomon were dealt the punishment of non rulership of a united Isreal. Do not keep saying, it is not a sin in the eyes of God.Because it is, if Jesus can consider it a defilation of man.No one has a right to Judge, not even your pastor. In short you can live your life as you please. However they are only quoting the dictates of God as ministered through revered prophets and messengers.Peace.

Pls dont quote me if you have nothing valid to bring to this discussion. I ain't one of you gullible ignorant sheep that CANT use your damn brain to understand the bible, and its meaning.

BTW, doesn't your bible tell you to love thy neighbor?! So LOVE ME whether a supposed sinner or whatever else.... you HYPOCRITE.
Saying the truth does not mean i hate you friend, and meanwhile you seem to have a general tendency to want to assume an act is allowed provided it was committed by a great.Also i dont get it. It is not the fact that you considered the act a sin that bothers me,it is the fact that you included God as an authority in favour of your argument,you said 'God did not consider them sinful for doing all those'.Now look at just what began to happen to Isreal after David, Solomon continued in his fathers ways and this culminated in David's household losing their place as the royal house of Isreal. Like i said some of consequences are subtle, you might not live to witness them

Here we have another ignorant sheep who has NEVER read the bible.
Abraham had extra marital sex with Hagar and Keturah, who he was NOT married to..... Thus a confirmed fornicator!



These guys had sex with mistresses, baby mamas and slaves that they were not married to.... Yet not viewed/punished as sinners by god. CASE CLOSED!!!!
