Is it not better to stay back here in Nigeria and have peace of mind than travel abroad and engage in criminal activities in a bid to survive at the expense of your peace of mind?
Most folks who get the chance to leave the country usually think they have automatically made it in life owing to their delusional notion that life abroad is easy.When they get there and see that life over there is not as easy as they thought it to be,they engage in criminal acts to survive.These are the people who give this country a bad image and gives outsiders reasons to erroneously stereotype all Nigerians as criminals.
We know the situation in this country is unfavourable.But is the risk of engaging in criminal activities abroad to survive at the expense of one's peace of mind really worth it?

You know a country is already in a mess and pity state if a whole General of her army can be caught like rabbit, kidnapped like a stray chicken and butchered like a sallah ram.

All the same, what will it profit a man to dance like a python and be swallowed whole by an earthworm ? After all, a wise woman called Gifty Akita once said

"A man is free to be wicked. But let him know that his wickedness shall be upon his own head

kaorama:
Rubbish. How does that change the fact that APC has been managing Nigeria's economy with somebody that forged NYSC certificate?

Kingwizzy16:
It's not EFCC we already know who's giving the instructions





Y'all allowed kemi leave Nigeria 24hours after accepting that she forged her cart

divinehand2003:
Ahhhh Buhari, what happened to , " I BELONG TO EVERYBODY, I BELONG TO NOBODY" speech you happily reeled out to Nigerians during your swearing-in ceremony in 2015?

I see nepotism, ethnic and religious bigotry and tribal favouritism in all Buhari's appointments. You totally belong to Daura.

Kingwizzy16:
Buhari is unrepentant bigot



Even Ngenechukwu sarkki and the rest of BMC are disappointed but they will go ahead and support him to avoid them loosing their 30k monthly salary

Xander85:
Meaning that Buhari is insular and doesn't have anyone (particularly a Christian) he can trust from the southern part of the country....this is the president of Nigeria need i remind you!

Which now begs the question: does this insular bigot have any business being the president of a complex, diverse and multi-cultural country like Nigeria!?

Ndonu101:
Anyone South of Kaduna still supporting Buhari should go see the doctor

Zombies come quickly and defend your god..

Buhari is such a predictable ethnic bigot

The Masquerade that dances first will surely sit back and watch others dance later.
Keep choosing from one side, but remember it will be another mans turn tomorrow. When he begins to do same make no body cry foul then.

Life is turn by turn. Teach me and learn

kaorama:
We said it. A chameleon cannot change hia skin. This man is an incurable tribalist, a nepotic despot and an ethnic chauvinist. Southerners who are still supporting him need psychological examination. This is very irritating!

Sam4ky:
When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.

Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the death of Christ my God!
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood.

See from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down!
Did e’er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?

His dying crimson, like a robe,
Spreads o’er His body on the tree;
Then I am dead to all the globe,
And all the globe is dead to me.

Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Story

When teenager Isaac Watts complained to his father about the monotonous way Christians in England sang the Old Testament Psalms, his father, a leading deacon, snapped back 'All right young man, you give us something better.'

To Isaac Watts, the singing of God's praise was the form of worship nearest to Heaven and he went on to argue: 'It's performance among us is the worst on earth.'

Young Isaac accepted his father's challenge and eventually wrote a total of more than 600 hymns, earning him the title 'The father of English hymnody.'

Even as a child Isaac had shown a passion for poetry, rhyming and such mundane things as everyday conversation. His serious-minded father, after several warnings, decided to spank the rhyming nonsense out of his son. But the tearful Isaac helplessly replied,
'Oh father do some pity take,
and I will no more verses make.'

However, choirs, congregations and individual Christians rejoice to this day that the young lad did not keep his impromptu promise.

If he had, none of us would have the thrill of singing such all-time favourites as "Oh God Our Help In Ages Past," "Am I A Soldier Of The Cross" or "Joy To The World."

As a child, Isaac Watts was sickly and unattractive, yet, even by today's standards he was clever beyond his years. He began the study of Latin at the age of four, and added Greek when he was nine, French at eleven and Hebrew at thirteen.

At fifteen the young poet turned his talents to the service of the church and the great career in hymn-writing began.

In his hymns Isaac Watts takes the Word of God, of which he must have been a diligent student, and distils it so that all is wisdom, beauty and comfort are set before us with plainness and power. No wonder, then, that C.H. Spurgeon's grandfather, himself a great preacher, and in the line of the Puritans, would have nothing else but the hymns of Isaac Watts sung in his services.

Isaac Watt's greatest composition must surely be "When I Survey The Wondrous Cross."
It has been called 'The very best hymn in the English language' and in it Watts, using only 16 lines, paints a soul-stirring picture of the Saviour's death on the cross coupled with the whole-hearted response of the believer to such amazing love.

As Tedd Smith says 'It seems to me that Isaac Watts wrote this text as if he were standing at the foot of Christ's cross.'

How blessed to reflect on the finished work of Christ Jesus, as summed up in those lines:

See, from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down;
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?

And how enriching to be able to voice our reconsecration to the Lord's service in the words:

Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were an offering far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Bible Verse

Galatians 6:14 “May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ."

No matter how they try to bury the Truth, Truth will always rise from the grave.
Why call for declaration of state of emergency in Zamfara state? Is it no longer a simple case of local criminal banditry according to buhari's terrorist govt? The bandits we know are just a group of localized criminals who's main objective is to steal and not KILL. If state of emergency should be declared in Zamfara because of BANDITS, then state of emergency may as well be declared in Lagos state. Lagos has more bandits than Zamfara state. You can't declare state of emergency over mere criminals.

IT IS ONLY IN NIGERIA WHERE TERRORIST MURDERERS WHO GO ABOUT VILLAGE TO VILLAGE WIPING AND KILLING OFF INHABITANTS ARE CALLED BANDITS.
The mere fact that people are now calling for state of emergency in Zamfara shows that the killings currently going on in the state was never about bandits but a case of TERRORIST INVASION.
Nigerians should rather call for the resignation of buhari for lying about the real situation in Zamfara state instead of calling for state of emergency.

The day you stop canvassing for Buhari, that's the day you will start getting useful in helping your brothers




Problem with the victims is that they refuse to accept that they are the cause. They know fully well that this bandits are metamorphic remains of Boko Haram started by Buhari their lord. but they seriously doesn't wanna hurt the Terrorist president feelings

In conclusion, Boko Haram has divided into many faction on Buharis instruction

North - Hakika Islamic

North - Boko Haram shadows

North - Bandits

West - Boko Haram recruited into SARS/police

East - Boko Haram recruited into Military(mission failed)

Middlebelt - Fulani herdsmen

Solution, divide or restructure

Says Governor making political capital on the graves of Benue people


National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole said Friday that Benue State that the exit of Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom from the party was a blessing in disguise to the APC, saying his three and half years as governor in the stage was a waste as he had no single project to show for the mandate given to him by the party.

Addressing a news conference at the party secretariat, Comrade Oshiomhole said even though the party leadership had attempted to wade into the conflict between the governor and leaders of the party in Benue State, he could not successfully defend the weighty allegation leveled against him by the leaders of the party in the state.

He said that at the instance of the Governor, the National leadership of the party had arranged another meeting to bring north Gov. Ortom and party leaders in the state to a round table with the meeting scheduled to hold on Wednesday, July 24 only for the governor to turn governance to “nollywood”.



Oshiomhole said “Within the last 48 hours we have watched the unfolding events in Benue State particularly the decision of Gov, Ortom to leave the party. Ordinarily, we would not have responded having already responded to the decision by the Publicity Secretary.

“As you all recall, Gov. Ortom had said that the APC in Benue State gave him red card to leave our party and that they will not field him in the governorship election in 2018 and that because the door had been shut against him, he had no choice than to leave. Without going into investigations, we invited him to speak to us on the issues and we also invited our party leaders in Benue State to also brief us on what the issues were.

“From the point of view of our leaders in Benue State, their position was clear that field Gov. Ortom On APC platform in 2019 can only lead to electoral defeat for a number of reasons.

“They reminded us that inspite of the allocation accruing to Benue State, the bail our fund amount to over N20 billion and the huge sums of money collected from the Paris club refund, he was not paying salaries to Benue workers, including teachers, local government employees and civil servants. He owes some of the as much as 12months salaries.

“So, the entire economy of Benue State that survives on civil servants salaries is to that effect compromised. What is not obvious is that those who live on rents paid by civil servants cannot collect their rents with which to survive, thereby having effect on the commercial live of the people. This explains a vicious circle of poverty in Benue State that has been deepened under Gov. Ortom
