"Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger ...'' Note the bolded. The terrorists operating in Nigeria and other Africa countries are not waging war against Allah and His Messenger but against governments operating secular democratic constitutions. That explain the silence of those who are supposed to declare fatwa on the known leaders of these terrorists and bandits organisations. Because they are not warring against Allah and His Messenger. Think about this and see the deception in this supposed epistle to sale the faith.

I'm sure you didn't read the ambassador's letter neither was my opinion well understood by you sir before writing the long essay above. That America allows certain extreme rights that ain't pleasant to you sir doesn't give you nor any Omar the illegal audacity to infringe on anybody's fundamental human right. We hail our citizens when they win awards in the US or anywhere globally but we won't spare any privileged lawmaker at that if they set bad precedence that would tarnish our present and probably future reputations ..
If you had followed President Clinton's trial both in the media and in law courts then you should have said 'God bless America' for humbling the most powerful leader in the world then before the law, and for teaching the whole world that power belongs to the people . America decided to keep Clinton and not Clinton influencing the country to keep his seat. President Clinton was adequately punished even after his tenure.
Let the 'honorables' deny the allegations please .

Thank you sir for the education. However, I would like to draw your attention to the bolded in your submission. President Clitton was tried not crucified following an accusation. Our leaders however were sentenced before trial by the Ambassador's letter. That is my point of observation and not that the accused leaders are incapable of committing the alleged offenses. They deserve a fare hearing for my and your honour. Anything short of that before any action is condemnable. That is my stand sir.

Babacele:
God bless you! The ambassador was just being too nice for not adding ' we have video evidence against these persons' in his letter if you are conversant with diplomatic languages......We are waiting for these 'honorables' to do us proud by denying the 'allegations' and should initiate a defamation suit against US, the Hotel and Mr Enstwhisle the whistle blower...

Popsonbj and Babacele

Thanks guys for your observations. But when Clinton was accused of having an affair (adultery) as a sitting president did he resign? No sir. Was the accusations proved against him? Yes sir. Was he crucified by your 'gods' the Americans? No sir. Was it an offense? yes sir, morally and officially. If few months ago someone have suggested that a man could go into a club in the US and gun down 50+ people with an automatic weapon, your types would have asked if the guy thinks the US is the North East Nigeria. Please do not take offense but your types are the reason these white guys will not give us our due respect. They insulted our country by baseless accusation of our highly placed leaders and you guys are here defending the absurdity of the so called ambassador. I am not conversant with diplomatic language sir but if the ambassador had wanted to be diplomatic despite the 'fact at his disposal' he would have been silent on the reasons for the visa denial. Respect yourself before you should demand same from the World. Come to think of it, which part of America is pussy so difficult to get that you will want to contract a gateman to get one? Grow up guys. The accused are innocent until proved otherwise. But I would be sorely saddened if the House of Rep failed to investigate this allegations.

If I read the reasons the US Ambassador gave for the visa denial correctly, it is still in the realm of allegation. No matter how they live their personal lives, these honourable gentlemen are our leaders, duly elected. That they are accused of a crime does not make them immediately guilty because they are Nigerians. Non of us will join the whole villagers to belittle our parent(s) if they are 'accused' of witchcraft without proof. Considering where the accusations are coming from, the US against soliciting for sex while operating gay clubs. I will suggest we allow the investigation proposed by the Speaker to be completed before we show how righteous we are. I am a proud Nigerian and no clown will accuse my leaders this cheap and get away with it. These are very weighty allegations that the Ambassador must be made to substantiate.

No, no, no. Please lets change the narrative here. Called these attackers terrorists and not Fulani herdsmen. The attackers has forced this 'Fulani herdsmen' tag on the country to forced distraction and inaction. There is a systematic and strategic movement of these terrorists around the country with catastrophic consequences. But will the relevant authorities see this from this perspective and act accordingly? Let no community deceive themselves that they will prepare for the 'Fulani Herdsmen', they will receive the shock of their lives. Please shout and let the relevant authorities see these guys for what they really are, terrorists.

This look more like an operation to rescue the US Dollar. Unfortunately, this time around we have a strong willed president whose yes is yes and nay is nay. He will not play diplomacy with the survival of this nation. Some clowns are working hard to make the most endowed Black nation on planet earth to be beggerly and they want us to play diplomacy. They aren't see nothing yet. The sleeping giant is about to wake up and we will trample under feet who ever stands on our way. We know who we are. They have consistently know where these our daughters were kept all this while but they will not share such strategic information with us because they want us to swallow their evil agender for Africa hook, line and sinker without asking question, but the Nigerian is a different African, always exhibiting that divine leadership role God bestowed on him/her among the black race. It is a beautiful time to be alive as history is about to be rewritten in the Black Race perspective. Their fears are gradually unfolding....masu gudu su gudu...let the guilty run....

“It is a common thing during budget processes at the National Assembly. All chairmen and vice chairmen of committees are involved, especially popular committees. This has been the practice as such there is nothing new about this thing,”

There is another angle to this. If this has been going on as claimed, what stop the EFCC from conducting a forensic investigation into how budgets has been implemented from May 1999? This will be in view to unravel who inserted projects in the main Budgets and also benefited from the so called 'Constituency Projects' but were not executed. An investigation will reveal that monies allocated to these projects were definitely released but work not done to our collective detriment. Ofcourse the monies will be in the hands of those who inserted the projects in the main budgets and also benefited from the constituency projects. The reason we cannot account for the huge monies expended so far during our democratic experience. Thus making this very beautiful system of government to look unattractive to our people. The EFCC as one of our strategic institutions must do this as our president is not fighting to be a strong man but someone who want to see our institutions as strong as the constitution has empowered them to be. Conduct this investigation and it will surprise you how deep the rabbit hole goes....gradually the wastage maths is falling into place. God bless Nigeria, amen.

VajanahDischaj:
wtf!!!ordinary stone?

And what are you? Ordinary dust. You see a piece of history that show that your fore fathers were not as daft as your white masters would want you to believe but your brain is so self-conscious dead that it cannot reason. They claim superiority in everything but they looted from the presumed inferior race. Evidence that they saw superior art to what they call art in their clime at that period. They actually stunted and halted our development. Today we follow them in calling this artifact art works, they may even be scientific items relevant to the period they were developed. Be proud of your heritage.

bezimo:
Catholics and their brand of Christianity. Na wa oh!!!
Is it not Idolatry of bowing to something or somebody except God.

I though Jesus Christ mandated that they should be preached to. (Hindus, muslims etc)What is the pope doing.

Even going ahead to declare them all children of the same God over Christians. Is the Pope misguided or its me that dont understand.

I am interested in your closing question. And it is good to seek to know rather than condemn from a distance. Let me help you in my own little understanding of the action the whole catholic family carried out during the Good Friday ceremonies especially the washing of the feet.
The Lord Jesus instituted it to show that as leaders will must be ready to be the servant of those we lead.
The Lord Jesus said our love should not be reserved for only those who love us. He command us to love even our enemies.
The people of other faiths are not our enemies because they were created in the image and likeness of God.
I commend the Pope and also commend the non Christians who agree to take part in this ceremony and have their feet washed.
Winning converts to Christ is not through hate speech, promise of properity or AK 47 rifles but through love as examplified by the Pope's action.
God love all humans irrespective of faith and belief. But He desire that all come to know Him through Christ. That is where our task (as Christians) comes in. Are we showing Christ to those we think are condemned by our actions through love as Christ will want us to?
There are nations that do not believe in the existence of God but by all worldly standards are doing great today and providing that needed succor to our brothers and sisters looking for greener pastures. They cannot do well if God is not in it. God still love them. But they are also better than some religious countries in works of charity. In their ignorance of professing they do not know God they carry out God's divine character of charity which emanates from love. The devil is incapable of doing this.
Continue to seek to know my brother and may the good Lord direct the Holy Spirit to lead you into the TRUTH, amen.

Elijahrona2:
Very cool. So Edo fit produce these kind people?

Change has really come

See how you exposed your ignorance and the kind of shit hole you and your slavish ethnic group craw out of. For the records, you mugu, your present IGP is a full flesh Edo son who earned the respectable office of the IGP on pure merit and not on some Federal Character shit that will make your like to qualify to work in the civil service. I know you are not happy because the wicked system your forefathers put in place to keep us perpetually down could not frustrate their God given talent. Instead of making these useless comment of yours, you could at least celebrate them as Nigerians but that will not come into your rotten brain that can never achieve what these Edo children has achieved and will keep archiving. Will you even understand this my though? I doubt you will......

cremedelacreme:
Idiots, flogging unarmed women staging a peaceful protest. When una see Boko Haram now una no go fit stand .

They no fit fight Boko Haram and yet the Boko Haram never still reach your village. Bad approach by the officer but condemn him and not the entire system. Your type of comment gives Boko Haram justification for their crime. If not for the inability' of the soldiers as you would want us believe, maybe your champions the Boko Haram would have mounted their flags in your useless village after slaughtering your parents, idiot.

fatymore:
I have no beef with anybody on this issue....Yes what he did was wrong..no sane person does that...If you are a thief..does that makes everyone in your family thieves....In as much you want to castigate the person..feel free to do so..but don't say it all about Islam...Evil and fake pastors abound but do we all say Christianity is all about such acts...Am a muslim and am proud to be one but that doesn't mean I should insult people bcs of their faith or their religion...we should all take note of this..

You have already qualified the pastor as evil and fake and by inference not a true christian. If a 'pastor' does this evil or encourage it by officiating a marriage rite between a kidnapper and his victim, he goes against the Holy Bible and ofcourse show his evil and fake nature. The Bible warns that even satan goes around as angel of light. So when he manifest will you blame his action on Christianity? What the guys here try to convince you about is that your book support this kind of action directly or indirectly. Why will an Imam (with the knowledge of highly placed individuals in the faith) conduct marriage rite without the consent of the parent of the girl. Maybe it is not allowed in Islam but could be done to 'infidels'. Look inward and .......

ZombieNation:
Go and educate yourself before you quote me


Zombie

You should rather educate yourself before you mislead others with your cheap access to the Internet. Your America gods could not do the job in Iraq with a button as you want all to believe. With all their tech ISIS is still in operation. What you don,t know don't comment on. ITK. It is not your father's sorry ass that will be used to fund the expansion. And your equipment must also be matched by requisite manpower idiot. Half baked educationists always comparing Nigeria with America. Check out the statistics between these two countries and see why we are proud to be Nigerians. For a start, one state i.e. Texas is as large as Nigeria and they have 50 Buffon. America this America that.

greatiyk4u:
Just imagine how Buhari would have been criticized if this incidence was against a christian leader and his group, wailers would have concluded Buhari is islamizing Nigeria

God is truly merciful

Unfortunately, no Christian leader or group will act in such a dumb way like your mentor El Zakzaky. See the video of how the very civilised Nigerian Army pleaded with youths brandishing weapons for an extended period to no avail. Why do you seek to play up our weak points which are really suppose to be our strong points alas for politics? You sound like one of those misguided fanatics who were rejoicing when boko haram was targeting only churches.

God is a God of vengeance (Romans 12:19)

PreyingMantis:
It's funny how Ur 'new military order' hasn't been able to confront Boko Haram. It is common knowledge that the cowards run away from Boko Haram. For those of you who support evil, you might be the next victim

If the 'cowards' have not succeeded in thwarting the evil plans of the boko haram terrorists (that you dread but now subtly praise), you will not be comfortably seated at your desk to type this rubbish. I would have wish (but God forbid) for the soldiers to actually give way to boko haram so that you can 'peacefully' practice your brand or sect of religion you are deluding yourself in. I did not write believing but deluding because God is God of order and discipline but your shia guys do not have an iota of these. You deceive yourself in operating outside the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, but you have come to realise that the institutions of the constitution can ensure the sanctity of our binding document. Continue to degrade your God given intellect by succumbing to misleading teaching of some frustrated pastor or imam. A good follower of the shia leader will take his sons and mount another road blockade at kawo, kaduna to prevent the GOC from entering his office (and see if you will see the next day) and not come here to start calling your saviours cowards. And if you don't change your mindset about the nigerian army may the vengeance of fleeing boko haram foot soldiers fall on you and your family, amen and amen.

laurel03:
Wetin dey special for oyinbo Man dt he can't do shopping for Africa woman?

I wonder why some folks here think the man is under the influence of some juju to shop for his spouse even if that was really the case. The inferiority conplex in some of us is been displayed here without shame. That is why a white street mechanic will be brought here to maintain some machine and some idiots here will want to worship him/her. The reaction is not surprising though, as some people literally buy their spouse during marriage and so she becomes a slave to be used anyhow even for ritual. Let me educate the ignorant. Do you notice that the Hausa wives rarely go to market for stuff some of you will kill your wives for? The men do the shopping and not that they don't know their position in the house but that they practice the virtue of that leadership position which is to love and serve (the complete sermon on leadership). You may not know it but they show love and respect for their spouses than some educated illiterates posting rubbishy here. "I love you" is not only in the bed room but also in doing so many other things some demuinited brains see as reducing their ego. Respect women and respect the black woman more.

This is quite revealing. Time to really test that maxim that leadership is Nigeria's greatest problem. Hope we have gotten the solution in PMB.

NgwaManNaija4LF:
Abeg,go and die,I'm from Abia..I told you the hard truth,if your sisters are doing it,stop disgracing us. Edo people are all prostitutes.Gbam. Vote Buhari to stop prostitution of Edo people.

Sai the people's general wife. Go Go Go.

Did you say Abia?
Where all the young men are kidnappers or potential kidnappers.
Where all the women are operating baby making factories for ritualists
Abia state that is one of the smallest states have a whole Brigade with its complement of three battalions deployed to stop these menace but is on the increase daily. Why, it is in their blood.
Edo women prostitute? When did Nigerians started checking out of this country by whatever means? It was during the draconian regime of the husband.of this maggot who want to be first lady, when he tried to roll out economic policies by the barrel of the gun.
It is not good to generalise as even in the jungle called Abia, there are still some sane beings.

http://www.punchng.com/news/civilian-jtf-members-to-be-enlisted-into-military/

GMB did not say this but an APC candidate for House of Rep. And come to think of it, will GMB really do that after the same Civilian JTF have mercilessly killed the people he earnestly wish the government will grant amnesty like was done to the Niger Delta militants. Just my thought though.

nogames:
Go and ask how people were recruited into military during civil war,

And what happened to them after the civil war?...Half education is a time bomb.

Politicizing the military simply means bringing the military into prolitics and the military becoming partisan. In this Certificate saga, I think it is the candidate that submitted an affidavit that his credentials were with the military that unwittingly bring the military into politics. The military is apolitical and will be loyal to anyone that is sworn in as the president. However, I believe the military could have responded directly to INEC if confirmation of the candidate's claim was sought by the Electoral body and not to hold press conference in reaction to street talks. Politicizing the military died on 29 May 1999. Let no coupist tell us about politicizing the miltary. Let us not over react to this certificate issue. It is worthy to note that those at the helm of affairs of the military when GMB joined were not Nigerians but Britons and Indians. If they in their wisdom understand our peculiarities according to region and decided to accept recommendation from principals for recruitment and commissioning, I don't think we will be right to fault them now. They work for the unity and cooperate existence of this nation. Remember there was a time the North was educationally disadvantaged. So if we have to have a Nigerian Armed Forces there must be some give and take unless we want an all-Ibo, all-Yoruba nay all southerners Nigerian Armed Forces, which is impossible. The general did not got commissioned fraudulently as some will want us to believe. His recommendation was accepted by the military selection board. However, is it a sin to declare that your left school before you could sit the final exams as you have already secured admition based on the confidence and recommendation of your school authorities? The military remains apolitical or have you heard them shorting party slogans at their parades?

PRAYER FOR NIGERIA IN DISTRESS
All powerful and merciful Father, you are the God of justice , love and peace. You rule over all the nations of the Earth. Power and might are in your hands and no one can withstand you. We present our country Nigeria before you. We praise and thank you, for you are the source of all we have and are. We are sorry for the sins we have commited and for the good deeds we have failed to do. In your loving forgiveness, keep us safe from the punishment we deserve. Lord, we are weighed down not only by uncertainties but also by moral, economic, political and insecurity problems. Listen to the cries of your people who confidently turn to you. God of infinite goodness, our strenght in adversity, our health in weakness, our comfort in sorrow, be merciful to us your people. Spare this nation Nigeria from choas , anarchy and doom. Bless us with your kingdom of justice, love and peace. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ your son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever, amen.
(Please say this prayer whenever you gather as CHRISTIANS and during family devotions.....the crises we face as a nation is beyond the physical)
.......Yes, it is a prayer coined by Catholic Bishops

hello engineers in the house. I need help on how to exit safe mode on tecno phantom pad. I mistaken
clicked on safe mode and then clicked on test run. And then d fone rebooted den started doing some
test run steps. I followed the steps till it reached the point at which it displayed HALL SWITCH, ready
to test hall. I dont understand it at all. I cant exit, switch off, click any button. D fone is still on till dis
moment. D back light is on and i cant do anytin. Its just displayin READY TO TEST HALL.... Pls help

I listened to the audio. My judgement in regards to whether the money given was bribe or not remain my personal opinion. But some pertinent questions keep begging for answers:
1. Is there anything TBJ is trying to hide in respect to the building collapse that the journalists discovered (including Ibekwe)?
2. Is it not already in the public domain that lives were lost as a result of the collapse?
3. Was TBJ trying to avoid controversy?

When journalists are arrested the world over the media will be awash with their names and pictures with cries of human right violation, will Ibekwe be man enough to identify the journalists that collected the 'fuel money'? They will be in a better position to tell the world what was the intent for releasing such huge amount from the 'church' account to people who wanted to report an incidence in which the 'church' suffered such huge losses.

Another angle to the discussion here is that if anybody is culpable for the building collapse it will definitely not be TBJ - he is a pastor and not a civil engineer. Nobody is talking about the contractor handling the project. Fashola has been there and my C-in-C has been there but nobody has given the orders for the arrest of the contractor or engineer working on the project. Are they on the run?

Obama advised that we build strong institutions and not strong men. Who is stopping the arrest of those seemingly culpable in this failure. This is something we cannot sweep under the carpet as foreigners are involve and will seriously affect how we are perceived as a people.

One lesson from the building collapse........do not remain in a building that is been modified.

ChrisOD: From the video, the only information the so-called negotiator has is from Boko Haram themselves. I thought he has his information from a genuine source. He then says he could go on and on with more names. So why then does he stop at just those two names?

The man is a laughable skunk. What does he want Boko Haram to say about an Igbo man who, as an army chief, supervised their decimation? We all know that Boko Haram and their northern apologists have threatened Ihejirika in the past. Now Boko Haram concocts a story and a so called experienced negotiator ran away with it.

Does it not beat any one's imagination that an Igbo man will successfully sponsor the killing of northerners by northerners? This failed negotiator should climb the moon and back. He is a dumb ignorant MOFO.

Thanks for this thoughtful comment in the mist of childish anger. Don't we think the so called negotiator is a part of the grand strategy to lead the country into a civil war and ultimately to 'their' predicted disintegration in 2015? Fellow Nigerians let us be on guard and focus on the main issues viz ensuring the territorial integrity of this Nation. Long Live the Federal Republic of Nigeria, amen and amen.

Most people here are oozing with patriotism while in the comfort of their rooms. But I have some few questions:

Is it their right to demand for their bonus? Yes
Is the govt so broke that it cannot pay the players bonus? No
Will the bonus (if not paid now) get to the players after the competition? No
Do Greek players think of providing medical cover to their parents, uncles, brothers and friends? No. Greece is in debt but institutions are working and the govt is working.

When it comes to the comittment of the individual we ask for 110℅. But we say nothing when heads of institutions make them comatose. Patriotism is satisfying the demand placed on you when the resources to achieve set goals are duly provided. Will any of these super patriots here answer the call for recruitment into the armed forces if it is proven beyound reasonable doubts that the force have no single arms and ammunition in its inventory? Nigerians will sure answer the call because work na work and not for patriotism. Leave our players alone and ask those causing the delay in remitting bonuses where their loyalty lies

Thank God. But what do the merchants of death gain by spreading rumours.of evil? Those who are making jest of our trial will surely reciece a double portion. We shall overcome.

Congratulations Iheanacho. Our prayers are with you and your dear family as we look forward to seeing you winning more laurels for the motherland. Let us encourage this lad and stop being hateful as if he has changed his nationality. I am so proud of the father for standing his ground to have a say in the boy's future. Suddenly we all want to be his manager, shame.

A group of 165 Somali religious leaders concluded a five-day National Conference on Extremism Wednesday evening (September 11th) in Mogadishu, issuing a fatwa condemning Al-Shabaab, Somalia's Radio Dalsan reported.

The clerics said al-Shabaab was a "strayed group" attempting to divert Muslims from practicing their faith. They also said al-Shabaab was wrong to label the Somali government an apostate government, as it works under Muslim principles.

The clerics called on al-Shabaab to repent, and urged Somalis not to join the group, support it or shelter its members. The communiqué also asked Somalis to report al-Shabaab members to the Somali authorities, and said both the government and civilians should support the fight against the militants.

Prime Minister Abdi Farah Shirdon, who gave the closing remarks at the conference, said the Somali federal government would take resolutions from the conference under consideration in its efforts to fight extremism, UN-funded Radio Bar-Kulan reported.



Religious leaders, scholars, elders and intellectuals from across the country and the diaspora met to devise solutions to increase security and stability in Somalia.
