now I understand.
call it mentalist or whatever you may.
but one thing still stands He is a man of God

I don't know whether or not you believe in God but you should show some respect.

How did you know that he is a man of God?

Awol1:
Sanusi lied against GEJ and he knows it.

He claimed 20billion dollars was missing from wherever. Which was a lie.

From what account did such amount miss?

How much is the total worth of Nigeria, that 20 billions will be looted and we are still standing?

It was all propaganda. But Sanusi bought into it and helped bastardisze GEJ's name in the international community.

I'm not totally exonerating GEJ of every ills he's been accused of, but the lies in them outweigh the truth.

GEJ is a child of destiny and mystery.

From nowhere, he became everything.

Now every hand that fought him has taken its bitter repayment one way or the order.

And more will still fall.

Don't ever join to prosecute the innocent because you feel no one will fight for him.

Sorry, not sorry for Sanusi!.

Supposing Sanusi lied, how come the government did not sue him? They only sacked him, which shows that they only punished him for his lack of loyalty, and not because he lied.

How can someone lie, and no investigations were carried out to exonerate the government? At that time, was Sanusi more powerful than the government, or was he above the law that he could not be made to account for his false accusation?

It is either GEJ was truly a weakling or Sanusi was telling the truth.

And I am inclined to believe the latter because it is more sensible.

Nabena is a big idiot. Asking what contribution the founder of convenant University has made to the country.?
APC, party of empty charlatans. No wonder the country is moving backwards everyday.

What contribution? How does Covenant University contribute to our economy when it is not taxed?

The university is not even affordable, and in a country with over 80 million extremely poor people, that is a big waste for a university that is not taxed.

Moreover, I thought you all claim that Covenant University belongs to the church, in which case, the founder of Covenant University should be Living Faith Church.

I remembered when they wanted to establish Covenant University, and they were collecting donations from branch to branch, and telling people, "It is your university". How many of those who contributed by carrying basins of cement can afford the school?

Same with the jet. One Winners Chapel member was telling me during an argument that the jet belongs to all Winners members. I was like, "If dem born you well, go near the jet, na then you go know sey Oyedepo no be your real papa".

Living Faith is Oyedepo's business empire.

Cityguy:
What does it mean to say someone's days are numbered? Does it mean an immediate end? This didirin of Nabena or labeta should know that as a Nigerian who pays tax to the govt either as individual or corporate, Oyedepo had every right to demand for good governance and calling the President out when he obviously fails in this regard is challenging failure which is not just a right but a responsibility.

What tax does Oyedepo pay?

The man is a shrewd businessman, and has already claimed that he doesn't work. Their businesses are also not taxed.

So, going by your logic, since he does not pay tax, he has no rights to demand good governance.

Nwogeh:
Oyedepo in his private capacity has done more than what APC with Federal govt money has done in 5years. Evil men hates hearing their real name. Whether Pa Oyedepo said or not....offcourse MBuhari days are numbered...las las 2023.

What private capacity? What does he do for a living?

His church enjoys tax exempt, and I am sure many of its personal services may be dubiously classified as humanitarian services to enjoy privileges of the Company Income Tax Act.

For instance, his jet could be registered as a vehicle for conducting humanitarian services. But we all know how Buhari has dealt with him in that regard and forced him to commercialize the jets.

DEmejioba1:
The only thing I can say is that In this country People only talk when the table is shifted from them,we only hear from them when they are not benefiting from the government in any way and vice versa.

Exactly.

Some people here call MannaBBQ a zombie whenever he defends Buhari relentlessly. But they don't see anything bad in defending Oyedepo relentlessly when he goofs.

How are they not zombies too?

Felixamos:
The problem of this country presently is not really buhari but people rabbits like you..
No wonder deji and other activists are giving up on this country..

Did you read what oyedepo said? Was it not the truth? People that are already comfortable for life are coming up to speak against this very useless govt out of concern for the masses but instead of your foolish self appreciating them, you stay back in your smelly hut and type the nonsense from your plastic brain..

I wonder between you and oyedepo, who would be the first to die out of hunger if this very useless govt should continue...

No wonder activists are giving up... You so much hate prosperity and economic growth that you would criticize any attempt to elevate you... What kind of a senseless fool are you? Can't you just call a spade, a spade for once in your miserable life

Ode!

If Oyedepo meant well, why did we not hear him criticize PDP throughout their 16 years in power? Even when Boko Haram were bombing churches, markets, and slaughtering boys in their dorms, why didn't Oyedepo ever criticize GEJ?

He didn't because he is a PDP apologist. He hated Buhari because he knew that with Buhari, the unfair privileges he enjoyed would end.

When you want to speak the truth, speak it without caring about whose ox is gored. He couldn't speak the truth against GEJ, but wants to against Buhari.

Soyinka has criticized nearly all the administrations we have had.

Buhari's first tenure (Soyinka criticized)

IBB (Soyinka criticized)

Abacha (Soyinka criticized, even got a death sentence in absentia)

Obasanjo's 8 years (Soyinka was an active critic even though he and Obasanjo come from the same state).

Yar'Adua (Soyinka warned that Obasanjo was planning to foist a sick man on Nigeria)

Goodluck Jonathan (Soyinka criticized)

Buhari (Soyinka criticizes)


But Oyedepo.

Obasanjo's 8 years (Oyedepo was quiet)

GEJ's 5 years (Oyedepo was quiet. Curses Boko Haram, but has nothing critical to say about GEJ)

Buhari's first year up till date (Oyedepo has suddenly become an activist).

Activist, my foot!!!

buhari is the definition of incompetence
he cares so much and how many fulani herdsmen have been arrested?
boko haram is sacking villages in the north east and buhari cares alot
boko haram are slaughtering soldiers and raiding their camps on daily basis but buhari cares alot
terrorists are air lifted from neighboring countries into nigeria to be given scholarship and amnesty but nigerians stuck in south africa during xenophobia are left to die but buhari cares
nigerians are stranded in china during corona virus outbreak, many nations airlifted their citizens back to their countries but nigeria didn't but buhari cares


a deceiver will always find victims of his deception......niccolo machiavelli

This is another problem I have with you people.

Why not just do a simple search on how many Fulani herdsmen have been arrested. You will be disappointed because many Fulani herdsmen have been arrested, and some convicted.

You said Boko Haram is sacking villages. Have you forgotten that a time, Boko Haram was bombing bus stations, and central markets? They were taking territories and hoisting their flags. Why don't they do it again?

Only a mischievous person will say that there is no remarkable improvement in the fight against terrorism.

Did you know that as at 2012-2013, many people could not hold services in their churches, even in the relatively peaceful Zaria in the fear of being bombed?

But today, churches have continued to hold services.

Kundagarten:
Not even president Buhari together with NASS can dethrone the Oba of Benin. The reason is that only the first son of an Oba becomes an oba.

No other king in Nigeria has that previledge.

Ovonramwen Nogbaisi was removed by the British.

And in this modern world, if Oba of Benin does more than himself, he would be removed without any waste of time.

Fragility6:
If you dont like it den don't commit crime dat will make u pass thru diz

You think all inmates are criminals?

Many of them are awaiting trials. Many of these people may be innocent. Some of them may stay there 15 years without appearing before a judge.

See, just always pray never to get into trouble that you neither know the head nor tail. When those beggars pray for you that "Akoba, Adaba, oloun ma je a ri" just always say a loud amen.

A person may be driving his car jejely, and a small boy will just run into his path, and gbosa, and before he knows it, trouble has started for him. He finds himself in a police cell. He may be there 15 years, and family and friends will be busy bribing this person or that to facilitate his trial.

Antivirus92:
but criticising jonathan on what u failed to see is good

I criticized GEJ based on what I saw. So, rather than say that GEJ didn't care, I always wrote that he wasn't doing enough.

But to come out and say Buhari does not care about the killings going on in the country is terrible.

How can there be a president who would not care that insecurity is a serious challenge under him?

Yes, a leader may be incompetent, may not be doing much, but it is too much to think a man will sit comfortably in the presidential villa, and not care about insecurity.

Reference:
Then you donot understand what democracy is all about. You think that democracy is just electing a President, sitting back and 'praying for him' as sime say.

Do you employ a servant then leave him to do what he likes? No. You set rules, instruct him and watch for performance. There are no secrets there. You both know exactly what is going on at every point in time.

There is nothing hidden before a typical Brit or American, or German or French or Italian. They see it is black and white because they interact with government. They speak goverment listens.? and acts like true SERVANTS.

Americans said they wanted their troops out of Afghanistan so Trump is pulling them out. If he cannot do that then he will have to explain to the nation why.

Nigerians have asked Mr. President fo sack the service chiefs several times and spoken clearly through their Representatives. Mr. President has refused to do so and has refused to say why. Tell me why any citizen should not react negatively to this disdain.

I personaly donot think sacking fhem will change our fortunes but in a democracy a leader has no option but to obey the will of his people at every cost even to his person. We own the government not him. There are no secrets in a democracy.

You are the one who has no idea what democracy means. Democracy does not mean a weak central government that does whatever pressure groups asks of it.

When you say Americans wanted their troops out of Afghanistan, what do you mean by Americans

Did you mean about a hundred random American posts on Facebook or Twitter? Or did you mean Americans through their representatives in Congress? I need you to be specific.

I am taking it that you either mean a petition with over 10,000 signatures or Americans through Congress.

Please, how many of you Nigerians are that well informed about politics? Or you think that by being overly critical of the government without even making viable suggestions, the government is bound to listen?

Take for instance, an example of mine:

The border has been closed.

Americans: This might cause a meltdown, let us sign a petition to revoke this. What we need is more investments in local goods, not shutting down foreign markets [/b]

Nearly everyone takes the exercise seriously.



Nigerians: Walahi, this Buhari administration na wa o. Buhari na bastard, i swear.

Everyone is on social media, abusing the government the best they can. The trolls have a fields day. In the end, nothing gets to the NASS in terms of formality, nothing gets to Buhari.

nickxtra:
He is first of all a Prophet before a Bishop. One is a spiritual ordinantion and the other earthly ordination. Get it

How is he a prophet?

Tell me one prophesy that he made that has come to pass?

Even his curses have proven to be powerless.

God has and still continues to show you people that these men are fraud by exposing them through their ambiguous prophesies.

Urchman200:
he has been tackling seriously, he warned us but we did not listen, adeboye is the one that have showing subtle support all along.

He has been playing politics, not tackling the issues.

During Goodluck Jonathan's administration, Boko Haram was at the peak of its powers. They were so brazen that they were taking territories and putting their flags everywhere on Nigerian soil.

Please, did Oyedepo ever criticize that administration? He didn't. Rather, he was cursing Boko Haram and refusing to even criticize GEJ.

There was hardly a month that went by that we didn't hear about bombings. Schoolboys were slaughtered in their dorms, Chibok girls were kidnapped, and yet not once did Oyedepo even remotely criticize GEJ.

As at 2014, Nigeria was already slipping into a recession. Yet, in 2015, dollars were being thrown away to seek reelection for a man that the Economist had brazenly called an ineffectual buffoon

Oyedepo did not care about this. He was busy campaigning for GEJ.

Only misguided fools think Oyedepo means well for this country. He is just a politician guiding his own interest.

How come he suddenly became an advocate against bad government when Buhari won in 2015. Was there no evidence of bad governance under GEJ? Yet, this man was quiet when he should have criticized the government.

He has a right to be partisan, at least under the law. But his followers should stop painting him as a good man. He is a PDP apologist. He has never liked Buhari, and obviously will not. And I am sure Buhari knows this, and couldn't care less. Oyedepo is only respected by his followers. But any man who is not gullible will know that Oyedepo is nothing but a businessman, and as a thorough businessman, he is only out there to make profit and enjoy privileges.

Herrymax:
To you and every other people supporting this administration
May you never know peace all your life, Amen

One thing I have come to know in life is that it is very easy to criticize based on face value alone. Maybe if you spend less than an hour with the president, you might come to appreciate him.

All of you criticizing based on what you fail to see might be totally wrong.

nuban07:
That's self defense, why was she arrested.
Every rapists deserve that

She was arrested because she is a suspect in the murder of a human being.

You expect the police to just let her go because she said she stabbed the man for attempting to rape her?

No, life doesn't work like that, let alone the law.

Investigations would be conducted to see if she is saying the truth about the man attempting to rape her.

Supposing the man had attempted to rape her, and she was able to escape, only to grab a knife and stab the man, then it would no longer be self-defence, and she would be charged with at least manslaughter.

Who knows? Maybe this crime was intentional. Supposing he had raped her, and then she came back to his house to stab him to death in vengeance, that would be murder.

So, you can't just jump into conclusion based solely on the words of the suspect. She could be lying, she could be telling half-truths.

Lifestone:
Was Romero expecting Adesanya to fight from the center of the Octagon which is his (Romero) strength? He must be a joker ! Every fight has its own strategy and plans. Asking your opponent to fight your style is foolishness.

Every fighter hopes that his opponent makes the mistake of bending to their style.

For instance, Joshua expected Ruiz to be on the back foot in their first fight because it suits Joshua well to come forward when his opponents are defensive. But Ruiz came forward, and thus refused to bend to Joshua's style therefore making the fight difficult for Joshua.

It is foolishness to you but it would have been wisdom had Adesanya made the mistake of throwing a reckless kick or punch (he did one or two and got punished), and running into a punch or kick that knocks him out cold.

Just like you said, every fight has its own strategy and plan. So, why are you rubbishing Romero's strategy?

Moreover, pre-fight, Romero had said that he was going to capitalize on mistakes, and not necessarily to fight dirty.

judedwriter:
Yes, but the spirit of Goliath still intimidates till today.

But thank God we have the victory in Jesus.

There is no spirit of Goliath anywhere. He is long dead and gone.

isthatso:
be there defending gays!!! Crossdressing is the beginning of homo! beside the idiot has stated many times he has many "boyfriends" so he is a self confessed gay!! They should arrest him and throw away the key before he furhter corrupts our youth.

You are emotional, but the law is not.

If everyone is arrested based on what they say on social media, our prisons will be overfull.

Dizzyrascal:
that is because Henry played for France and not Cote d'ivore....Zidane was busy doing all the dirty hard work and handing out trophies to the Les Blues during that era...Drogba played 10 cup finals and scored 10 goals, Henri played in 9 finals and scored 0 goals, fact! And facts can not be argued with....Even the Champions league was with Barcelona where Messi and Samuel Eto'o Fils were running the show....

Argument no dey dis matter Drogba to me was better.....

But you didn't look at the EPL records where Henry effortlessly trumps Drogba. You people are just focusing on cup finals.

backnbeta:
What right do they have to change him back? Cross dressing is not homosexuality

Don't mind those police.

They are supposed to enforce the law, but how many of them even know the law that they are supposed to enforce?

isthatso:
last time I checked Homosexuality is illegal in Nigeria. if anything the police are handling him with kids gloves. They should lock him up in Yaba left or ARO for pyschiatric evaluation.

Crossdressing is not the same as homosexuality.

RagaMufeen:
If the bill is passed, we will not see the likes of Buhari again.




https://www.thecable.ng/benue-rep-introduces-bill-to-raise-academic-qualification-for-president/

And I am sure you consider yourself educated.

So, you didn't see that the bill proposes to clarify academic qualifications, and not to raise academic qualifications.

Also, you must know that Buhari is very educated. He has more than a diploma.

nedekid:
Oga you actually read the attachment and saw no grounds?

Point it out now. Where are the grounds?

nedekid:
You also kindly try and ready carefully, where did I mention if it was or was not a criminal offence?
Better still read the Lagos state child law 2007 and see if there is any ground for prosecution. Lawyers on the forum may help out.

Then, why did you quote that particular post of mine?

Anyway, from the attached paragraphs, there is no ground for prosecution.

nedekid:
I hope you stay in Nigeria and not a western country. Say such about a minor in the US or UK and by the time you have to loose your job, have your life destroyed and probably have to register as a child sexual offended anywhere you reside your eyes will finally clear.

Even in Nigeria, this can get him blacklisted by all the industries in the labor market. With this bad publicity, he will surely lose his current job.

But does that make what he did a criminal offense? Of course, not.

So, try and read very well next time before commenting so that you don't go about misunderstanding very simple arguments.

valenu:
After watching this video, I conclude that few good persons can not fight numerous bad people. May God bless senator Abaribe. At this point if I were him, I would join the bad people and let us all suffer the consequences.

They are all the same.

What you have just watched is what they call politics

It is what obtains everywhere in the world. Even in America, the Democrats and Republicans are always at loggerheads not necessarily because they give a damn about the average American but because they just can't bring themselves to support one another for the good of all.

sirabu:
He can be charged for soliciting & enticement of a child for gay sex. The law is an ass, as such jail will be his home for a while.

How can they charge him for soliciting and enticement based on that sentence alone? How can you establish an intent in that sentence?

First, he was not even in direct conversation with Freeze (as in, it was not even a Direct Message).

He was not even in direct conversation with the son who would now be regarded as the victim.

Second, it was a one-off sentence that offered nothing in terms of money or question that opens Freeze up for a deal.

Third, he didn't pursue the issue further by discussing terms.

Law court judgment are based on intents.

If I say I will kill you, I have made a threat, but not committed a crime. But, if I have a knife, and I say I will kill you, I may be charged with criminal threat.

That is how the law works.

DexterousOne:
He may not be charged to court, as the meaning of in bed" is subject to interpretation

But then
This is wrong
And shaking him up will serve as a deterrent

This is a moral issue.

Shaking him up is another way of infringing on his right of expression.

crafteck:
Then everyone that posted"i will kill you " should be beld for intent to murder... The man posted something stupid to annoy daddy freeze but we are all guilty of posting stupid stuff that we dont mean... Its social media.... Nothing official about it.

Many Nigerians are emotional. They don't know that the law is not emotional. The law deals with facts.

That man has not committed any crime under any law. Children are sexualized everywhere in the world, even by their own parents. It doesn't become a crime simply because someone says a minor will be sweet in bed.

I am still wondering how the charge sheet will read. The police are really going to make a mockery of themselves if they take this to court. The judge will just throw it out before they can say Jack, and punish them for wasting everyone's time.

I don't see how this is a criminal offense.

For one thing, this falls more under a portion of what constitutes child pornography. That portion that involves written pieces advocating sex with minors is not criminal, but a moral issue.

Sexualization of children is not a crime in any country that I know of.

The police is not wrong in making the arrest, but they will simply waste their time if they try to take it to court.

appliedscience:
This society double standard sef! If na the wife go Bleep outside, ppl here will be fast to conclude she went out cos d husband no dey satisfy her. But if the man goes outside, he becomes a dog Dat goes after anything in skirt.. God saves men mehn!!!

Don't mind them. Men are in serious problem not because of women, but because of fellow men who support women against men in all matters.

The other day, a man was trying to justify Sanda's crime in killing her husband.

This same man would attack his fellow man for slapping a woman.

Which is more brutal? A man slapping a woman or a woman killing a man?

May God help men overcome this injustice.
