southniyikaye: Bro my question is, have the pastors oversea been able to heal coronavirus patient too? This is a global pandemic and only God knows why this is happening and how he will take it away. Doesn't it amuse you that no one in the world Not pastors Not herbalist Not scientists Not idol worshippers saw this coming? Only God can help us as it is now.
yes I agree with you this affects all Pastors all over the world as like you have highlighted no Pastor even from abroad has been able to cure anyone of this disease, so what does this mean? It's either they are also fake like their Nigerian prodigies or they are actors.
Religion is not bad initself, but it's the way that it is used that makes it good/bad for a people or society, but in Nigeria Religion has become bad and is the core root of all our social and personal problems we face as Nigerians and as Africans at large, but the case of Nigeria's Religions and Religious Institutions is very shameful and criminal. Especially the Nigerian Churches. The Late Legendary Afrobeat Icon Fela, may his soul Rest In Peace, mentioned this many times in his musicals, where he stated in one such songs and I Quote "Pastors House na eemdey fine Pass" and he ended the verse with "but dem dey bad bad things"
My fellow Nigerians we all know Fela and his struggle to educate the masses on the values and rights we should have and it was on this mission of his that his mother lost her life in this struggle not forgetting she is the first woman to drive a car in Nigeria. So Whether you love him or hate him he was a welltravelled and experienced man and as it is proving today he was right about the things he said about Nigeria's religious Institutions and leaders
But Coronavirus has fully exposed Pastors and Churches in Nigeria Fully, because Nigerian Pastors ranging from Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, Prophet TB joshua, Pastor Adeboye, Pastor Kumuyi, Margaret Idahosa(Bishop) Apostle suleiman, Pastor Ayo,Pastor Oyedepo just to mention but to fear have all been healing all sorts of people from sickness of all kind with their holy water and anointed oil that cost exorbitant prices, they have on record on video healed people of AIDS, TB, Cancer etc and even at times raise people from the dead like Pastor Lazarus Mouka, but since the advent of Coronavirus these Faith healers have not healed one person of Coronavirus? This is bemusing and very disgraceful because if the God you are claiming to serve can heal all sickness and you have said this on record many times over why is that same God not able to heal people of Coronavirus either through your prayer aids of Holy water and annointing oil? Unless you guys are fraudsters deceiving and misleading Nigerians with your fake miracles and discriminating gospels. But now you all have been exposed. No more Tithes No more offerings, but even after the Lockdown is lifted you guys will still want to continue deceiving people and using the Bible to paint a Revelations Themed Armageddon message of doom and the emergence of the antichrist. But before you decide to do this you Pastors should ask yourselves one Important question, Am I ready to lay down my Life and die for Christ in Nigeria? Thank you for your time.
Brandstudio01: Yet the government told us openly the north of not in a war. And even went ahead to announce the withdrawal of the Soldiers in the north east
budaatum: No they should not be allowed to impose their version of Sharia Law! Not even all Muslims agree with their ignorant interpretation of Sharia Law, and they intend to impose it on everyone regardless of whether one is a Muslim or not!
We must not give into them out of fear! As a certain Winston Churchill once said,
"We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask, what is our policy? I will say: It is to wage war, by sea, land, and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us; to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be!"
That said, Amotekun, a tribal army, is not the solution. it is a war being waged in the whole of Nigeria, and making it a tribal battle is a form of capitulation!
Thank you very much my good man for your kind response, the fact of the matter is that we all deep down in our hearts know that these people doing these atrocities and sponsoring them are not real Muslims they try to tarnish the image of Islam, like fake pastors like Pastor Ayo do with Christianity, but the reality remains that there has become an ethnic and religious undertone in all these killings and at thus given that the Federal government is not ethnic in its orientation its finding it hard to deal with the perceived grievances that the erring tribes feel that instigated them on these binge killings whether it be christian killing Muslims or Muslims killing Christians, my point is the killings have become tainted with ethnicity and you and I know as Nigerians that Nigeria is a very Ethnocentric country
bolaino: Fulani herdsmen are Muslim Jihadists and are well known to be among the foot soldiers of Boko Haram, and Hezbollah has become a sponsor of both the activities of Fulani herdsmen and Bokoharam respectively, and it's high time the Nigerian people and Nigerian Government calls a spade a spade and a shovel a shovel, The only way for the issues of incessant killings by Fulani herdsmen and Boko Haram to stop is by giving in to their demands and that is to create a separate governing system for them governed by Sharia law, as these people only want To be governed by Muslim laws and I don't see anything wrong with that the only thing wrong in what they are doing is the killing and maiming of innocent people just to force them into becoming Muslims, the Fulani herdsmen who are also boko Haram fighters and ground soldiers should be allowed to form their own autonomous region in the north east and they should be allowed to rule themselves anyway they want but their activities should be restricted solely in the north and security outfits like Amotekun should be given more firepower to tackle the menace of these fulaniherdsmen Boko Haram if they encroach to other parts of the country, This is the only viable way to keep the overall peace in the entire sub saharan region of West Africa, they should be given space to rule themselves with Sharia Law.

bolaino: Just wondering, If All The HezbollaH cells In Nigeria have been discovered, Nigeria should Re-evaluate it's relationship with Iran, We can not condone The Menace of Hezbollah in Nigeria, for how Long are we going to allow Hezbollah backed by The Al quds Brigade constitute menace to us as a Nation and as Individual Human beings, but why must Hezbollah sell expired food to Us, It's evil and should be dealt with, because people are going to die from consuming this expired foods that were sold to us by Hezbollah via one if it's Numerous Lebanese proxies in Nigeria. HezboLLah you have tough days ahead. Just saying.
bolaino: The World is changing, and as the wind of change is blowing, around the world, so is the wind of Destruction also blowing, Blowing away everything in it's path, Nature is Fighting Mankind, likewise The Metaphysical world, but I would rather Die, Than be gay, or be forced to be gay, I would kill myself a million times over, than watch my little African children become Gay, America must fall. It is a must. A Must. Posterity will judge me for what I am saying, but I envisage the Day that America is Ruined, both financially, Economically, and Otherwise, America is at it's end, and the sooner Black people in America start leaving. The better for Them. Because mankind will not be able to comprehend the things that will happen to the United states in the coming years. Mark my words. I have really come to Loathe the CIA, and any CIA operative in Nigeria is in danger, both the Ones in the Lagos Embassy and and the Ones in the Embassy in Abuja, I have Information on Directorate Of Operations (DO) officers in Lagos and Abuja. And Targeting officers, I have had these and many more information, even before The chinese started giving us for free. Your details are everywhere. For the sake of your Lives Leave Nigeria. To be forewarned is to Be Forearmed.
bolaino: For long there have been speculations and stories that have been misconstrued to be in the Realm of conspiracy theories, But are now been made manifest before our very eyes, It's no longer news that America has legalized the marriage of the same gender people, and even the UN is pushing for the recognition of the rights of Homosexuals and LGBT people in every part of the world, to many people all this is strange and alarming, but to the people who have always had this sixth sense inclinations that something was wrong, are already prepared, emotionally, psychologically, and physically, for the coming new world order. The 3rd world war that has been started by America and Russia will soon spread everywhere the world over, and before you know we are all living in a militarized state. And with the Refugee crisis in europe becoming more of a problem, the fate of europe is possibly gloomy, no rosy, prospects for Old Europe. The world is changing, and we have to change with it. The New world order is upon us my brethren. I welcome you all.
bolaino: The leadership of the MFPND (Movement For a Progressive Niger Delta) reject the stealth moves by the Russian federation to introduce Communism into Nigeria, Sub Saharan Africa and The entire Continent itself. We all know Russia is the inventor of the Ebola virus and for African leaders, Nay President Buhari of Nigeria to agree to work in alliance with communist Russia is a slap on the face of all Patriots of Nigeria who have sacrificed their lives and all to keep this democracy today. it's a disgrace that due to the failure of the leaders of Africa to provide good infrastructure and a stable economy to boost life on the continent they have been subjected to shame and after all is said and done posterity will judge them as the problem of Africa in the 21st century
that is why the MFPND is rejecting any attempt by the Nigerian government to forcefully bring Russian government and military into Nigeria especially in the Niger Delta, and refusal of the government to rescind whatever form of agreement they have with the Russians will be met with International consequences beyond the control of the Nigerian Army and President Buhari as Regional powers will be forced to take a stance of resistance to the Regime.
obiekunie2: The police state is here with us - it hit us when we least expected it.
Many of you will wonder what police state is all about.
Well, it is a type of governance where every citizen is monitored and spied on.
you phone calls, you social media postings, even your conversations at home at a point will be monitored.
this government seems to have an agenda that made them so desperate to monitor all citizens.
personally, i think i know what the end point is - i think this government want to continue beyond 2023. events that will happen in the next three years will either prove me right or wrong.
NOW IT DOESN'T MATTER WEATHER YOU BELIEVE ME OR NOT - WHAT MATTERS IS THAT YOU TAKE THIS PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE SO AS NOT TO FALL VICTIM TO GOVERNMENT UNLAWFUL BRUTALITY AND MURDER THAT WILL BE TERMED KIDNAPPING OR ROBBERY.
1. for fellow Nairalanders and those of you who are on watsapp, facebook, twitter and so on. pls do your best to clear your chat history at all times. always logout from all your social media account if u r about to go outside your home for now - DO THIS FOR BOTH YOUR MOBILE PHONE AND YOUR LAPTOPS.
I will also advice each and every one of you to as a matter of security of your life TO STOP DISCUSSING POLITICS ON SOCIAL MEDIA - ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE THE TYPE THAT IS SO AGAINST THIS GOVERNMENT WICKED POLICIES.
this government has contracted Russia to help them in citizen monitoring using modern technology - its a huge project that will bring in Russians to teach our security personnel on how to monitor citizen online activities as well as pinpoint your location.
2. this new call for ID for all citizens is the first step to knowing who u r - what you do, you political affiliation and so. this first few months will be a trial run. the security personnel will ask for your ID card, glance thru it and do a bar code scan of your ID it will automatically display your detailed information on their phone, including your phone number, your IP address and MAC address of your phone - if they are not comfortable with your person, they tag it for future processing and give you back your ID card - you will not know you have been marked. further investigations will be carried out on you later - including your account details, thru your bank, your education details - thru JAMB and NYSC biometric database,etc. [dont forget that all this things have been linked - your bvn, your Nysc, etc. - now jamb has made it, mandatory that NIMC is a must before you can register for 2020 jamb) THE SMART ONES AMONG US WILL UNDERSTAND THE IMPLICATION OF THIS.
3. FINALLY, PLS NAIRALANDERS FROM NOW ON BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU SAY OR DO BOTH ON YOUR PHONE CONVERSATION, YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA AND SO NOW CAUSE FEW MONTHS FROM NOW, YOU MAY BE SEATING SOMEWHERE AND ENJOYING YOUR PEPERSOUP AND SARS WILL JUST COME AND GBAB YOU AND GO AND THAT WILL BE THE END OF YOU - YOU WILL BE ASKING WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WRONG AND YOU WONT KNOW ITS BECAUSE OF ONE POST YOU MADE ON SOCIAL MEDIA 8 MONTHS AGO THAT HAS BOUGHT YOU DETENTION OF NO RETURN.
FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT BELIEVE NAIRALAND IS ANONYMOUS, PLS STOP DECEIVING YOURSELVES - NAIRALAND KEEPS TRACK OF THE IP AND MAC ADDRESS OF EVERY PHONE AND LAPTOP THAT VISITS THIS FORUM. THE OWNER MAY PRETEND NOT TO KNOW ABOUT THIS - BUT DEEP INSIDE ME I THINK HE KNOWS. THE SECURITY APPARATUS CAN USE YOUR PHONE OR LAPTOP MAC ADDRESS AND IP TO TRACE YOU - ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY DEPLOY THE EXPENSIVE EQUIPMENT THEY BOUGHT FROM THE RUSSIANS.
AS FOR ME AM USING A DEEP VPN - SOON I WILL EVEN MIGRATE TO BROWSING THE NET THRU THE DARK WEB USING BOTH VPN AND TOR SO AS TO REMAIN FULLY ANONYMOUS.
4. FINALLY, I WILL ADVICE THE SMART ONES AMONG US TO GET YOURSELF A NOKIA TORCHLIGHT PHONE AND PUT YOUR MAIN SIM IN IT - AND STOP CHATTING AND BROWSING WITH YOUR MAIN REGISTERED SIM IT WILL SAVE YOU ONE DAY. BUY A PRE-REGISTERED SIM NOW [FEW MONTHS FROM NOW IT WILL BE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO BUY A PRE-REGISTERED SIM - AND EVEN IF YOU SEE IT, IT WILL BE AS EXPENSIVE AS 10K] AND PUT IT IN YOUR BROWSING PHONE - YOU MUST ALWAYS HIDE THAT YOUR BROWSING PHONE AT THE LEAST EXPECTED PLACE BEFORE LEAVING YOUR HOUSE - SO THAT IF SITUATION WARRANTS THAT THEY WILL COME SEARCHING YOUR HOUSE, THEY WILL END UP NOT FINDING ANYTHING.
IF YOU ARE ACCOSTED AND ASKED TO SUBMIT YOUR PHONE FOR SEARCH YOU WILL JUST HAND THEM YOUR NOKIA TORCHLIGHT AND TELL THEM YOU HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO BUY ANOTHER PHONE SINCE YOURS WAS STOLEN. THE VERY SMART ONES CAN EVEN GO NOW AND GET A POLICE REPORT OF N1000 - CLAIMING THAT YOU WHERE PICK POCKETED AND YOUR PHONE AND CASH WAS STOLEN. THIS MAY SAVE YOU A LOT OF STRESS ONE DAY. FEW WEEKS FROM NOW, IF YOU GO FOR POLICE REPORT ON ANY STOLEN PHONE, YOU MAY WAIT UP TO A MONTH BEFORE YOU CAN GET IT - CAUSE THE POLICE WILL INVESTIGATE THOROUGHLY TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT LYING ABOUT MISPLACING YOUR PHONE CAUSE THEN YOUR PHONE OR LAPTOP WILL BE VERY IMPORTANT TO THEM AT ALL TIMES.
THINGS WILL BE TOUGH FOR US NIGERIAN THIS COMING YEARS - ESPECIALLY FOR US SOUTHERNERS AND NORTHERN CHRISTIANS. BUT I SERIOUSLY PRAY AM WRONG.
some will call this my warning stupid, some will think am just imagining things - but events in the coming months and years will prove me right or wrong.
the smart ones will start now to safeguard themselves - to be forewarned is to be forearmed.
Zoharariel: Brace yourselves folks, the "United Snakes of Amerikastan" has begun her underground campaign of calumny - seeing that Mother Russia is about to deliver Nigeria from the shackles of the Empire.
Amerika has sabotaged every thing that would have propelled Nigeria to an enviable height since the 70s.
Russia created Ebola? This is laughable.
Was it Russia that smuggled Patrick Sawyer into Nigeria to spread the Ebola virus in 2014 inorder to sell her useless & failed wonder-drug (Zmapp) or the CIA?
Was it Russia that sabotaged our Ajaokuta Steel Mill till date or Amerika?
Is it Russia that is funding & training Boko Haram fighters or the CIA & Mossad?
There's only one Country known in the history of the world to destabilize other Nations through terrorism & anarchy - and that Country is not Mother Russia.
It understandable that Amerika is currently at war with Russia & China and is doing everything to frustrate & cripple their economies in all the Geo-Political spheres of the globe.
The MFPND or the USMFPND (United States Movement For a Progressive Niger Delta ) or whatever had better taken a note from Amerika's betrayal of the foolish Kurdish fighters - SDF in Syria.
Syrian President - Dr. Bashar Al-Assad (an ophthalmologist by profession trained in Britain) warned the SDF many times not to become a pawn in the hands of Amerika.
“The US will not protect you. The US will not safeguard you in their hearts or their laps, The US will put you in their pockets so as to become a bartering tool along with their dollars, If you will not prepare yourselves to defend your country then you will become slaves for the Ottomans.
No one will protect you except your country. No one will defend you except the Syrian Arab Army.”
They were deluded into believing Amerika's worthless promise of the creation of "Kurdistan" for them but alas, the bastards left them high & dry in the cold to be devoured by Turkey.
I do not know the deal Amerika made with these useless body called MFPND to act as a rusty clog in the wheel of Nigeria's progress but Amerika has never done anyone, anywhere any good. Maleficence permeates all her policies & actions.
If anyone believes Amerika means well for any Country or any group, then that person should first hit his/her head against a wall - before digesting this piece.
#Copied:
The US in 1945 had the opportunity to stay the most prestigious country in the world, but blew the chance. It’s not surprising, if we analyze history.
In 1917 the New York bankers finance the Bolshevik Revolution, bringing Lenin and Trotsky to Russia. The US enters the First World War to prevent the German Army winning in the West. In 1924 Lenin dies from syphilis and Stalin, who was not banker controlled, takes over. A year later an obscure character by the name of Adolf Hitler appears in Germany and Wall Street starts investing in the country. In 1931 the Bank of International Settlements is opened in Basel, Switzerland, right next to the German border. Two years later Hitler takes control of the country, while the mentioned Wall Street Bank in Basel gives him all the money he needs for a war, the chief target being the Soviet Union (Russia).
In 1941 the German Army is approaching Moscow, and Stalin brings more than a million troops from Manchuria to defend the capital. It becomes apparent that Hitler would be defeated before the gates of Moscow, as he was. The US enters the war to prevent Stalin ending up in Western Europe, namely Paris, as everybody knows what happened to Napoleon (a proxy fighter for the bankers), who in 1812 enters Moscow, while the Russians in 1814 enter Paris. This had to be prevented. In 1945 Hitler ostensibly commits suicide, and a few years later NATO is created, taking over from Hitler.
For the globalists (bankers and corporations) to create a One World Order, two obstacles had to be cleared, and that was and still is Russia and China.
We all know how many times Russia was invaded. In the 1950’s the US fights in Korea and in the 1960’s and 1970’s it fights in Vietnam. Why ? The answer is simple.
Both countries have borders with China, and both were needed for a pincer invasion of China after it was destabilized. It did not work out, just like the destabilization and break up of Russia did not work out.
And now ? The US has the largest foreign and domestic debt in the world, the dollar is printed backed by nothing, causing countries to start ditching it, while the US military is stretched between domestic US bases and those 1000 bases it has in foreign countries. As the old army rule goes, “He who wants to control everything ends up controlling nothing”. It’s going that way for the US. Worse, it has domestic troubles, political, financial and economic, and analysts are talking about a possible civil war or major social and political disturbances in the country.
Over here where I live we have a saying, which goes like this:”He who digs a grave for someone else, ends up falling into his own grave”. The US is beginning to learn this.
My Good man, I want to first and foremost and with sincerity thank you very much for your input on this thread its very educative and knowledgeable but, there is just one problem.
you see, in life we can not use yesterdays solution to solve today's problems, this is why I will forgive your ignorance and try to explain to you as much as I can in lay mans tern. so you can be able to comprehend effectively.
talking from my own experience you have to realize that both the U.S and Russia are both neither true friends of Africa or Nigeria and I do not want to contest or debate that obvious fact. so keeping that in mind and also a quick reminder the U.D and Russia have an agreement known as MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) what does this mean in simple terms it's check mate for both parties just to even the odds between them.its literally Madness. its just plain MAD.
but what role does Nigeria and Africa play in this madness? our role is simple we are the pawns. we are nothing but pawns. its now left for us to decide if we want to be pawns or if we want to be officials, and given Nigeria's proclivity to religious exploitation I would suggest we become Bishops or Imams for my Muslim brothers. but my point is this Russia is Bad and America is Good.

And what's grave about it? Stop sucking up to the west. They have nothing better to offer.
yes I agree the west has failed Nigeria and Africa, but the Russians are no better, Russia wants to use Africa especially Nigeria as it's ground zero for it's campaign of war and calamity all over the world. the Russians are responsible for creating the Ebola virus and they are responsible for Hezbollah in Nigeria they pay All quds brigade spies to come to Nigeria and partner with people like the Fawaz brothers that were caught working for Hezbollah in Kaduna

GenBuhari: Whilst he is inactions whether intentional or not in early months of his rule contributed to Igbo massacres and ultimately at least a million Igbo lives . We have forgiven and moved on and this is evidenced by Ojukwu shaking his hand decades after.
I have a feeling that he was more of a figurehead and it was more elder and bigotted Nothern generals and their evil white devil sponsors that were running the government in his early months leading up to the war. Whether he is ultimately responsible for atrocities against Igbos, is for God to decide on judgement day. All the above having been said, he is example of how a true stateman should conduct himself. Thief Obasanjo should learn to conduct himself in a similar manner.
