Haven watched Nigerian politicians over the years, I dare to say that this is political propaganda. Believe it at your own peril.
Insincere set of leaders.

Nice one my governor, we are returning to our state in the nearest future with massive investment and advanced developmental plans in mind. For now, keep laying the solid foundation.

Never you pay back evil with evil. From the content of the letter, the resigning employee if given an opportunity will be like his terrible boss.

Below is the reason why the north will always want the entity Nigeria to exist, control of oil blocks. Am not a violent man but when you constantly fish from my backyard and yet you accord no respect and courtesy to me, making me your servant and not allowing me enjoy those fishes with you freely, then something is wrong with me if I don't hate you.
Monumental injustice is being perpetrated to the people
of Niger Delta on whose soil the oil was found.
These people constitutes the main opposition to
Please Read on:
(1) This oil block business is so lucrative that Danjuma’s
Sapetro divested of its investment in Akpo condensate
for $1billion dollars. This business is second to none in
Nigeria. That is why any attempt to investigate the
activities in this sector will always be futile. The money
is so much that they give bribes in millions of dollars.
A birthday gift or child naming gift from an oil block
owner to a government official could be as paltry as
$2million dollars, and if the official’s father died, the
condolence gift could reach mere $3 million dollars.
When they want to bribe legislators, it is in millions of
dollars and any ongoing investigation ends within weeks.
They are so confident that with excess money they can
buy up Nigeria and they are succeeding.
(2) OML 110 with high yield OBE oil fields was given
Cavendish Petroleum owned by Alhaji Mai Daribe, the
Borno Patriarch in 1996 by Sanni Abacha. OBE oil field
has estimated over 500 million barrels of oil. In
layman’s language and using average benchmark of
$100 dollars per barrel, translates to $50 billion dollars
worth of oil reserve. When you remove the taxes,
royalties and sundry duties worth about 60% of the
reserve payable over time you get about $20billion
dollars worth of oil in the hands of a family.
(3) OPL 246 was awarded to SAPETRO, a company
owned by General Theophilus Danjuma, by Sanni Abacha
in 1998. Akpo condensate exports about 300,000 barrels
of crude daily.
(4) NOML 112 and OML 117 were awarded to AMNI
International Petroleum Development Company owned
by Colonel Sanni Bello in 1999. Sanni Bello is an inlaw to
Abdulsalami Abubakar, former Head of State of
Nigeria.
(5) OML 115, OLDWOK Field and EBOK field was
awarded to Alhaji Mohammed Indimi from Niger State.
Indimi is an inlaw to former Military President Ibrahim
Babangida.
(6) OML 215 is operated by Nor East Petroleum
Limited owned by Alhaji Saleh Mohammed Gambo.
(7) OML 108 is operated by Express Petroleum Company
Limited is owned by Alhaji Aminu Dantata. (cool OML
II3 allocated to Yinka Folawiyo Pet Ltd is owned by
Alhaji W.I. folawiyo
(9)ASUOKPU/UMUTU marginal oil fields is operated by
Seplat Petroleum. Seplat is owned by Prince Nasiru Ado
Bayero, cousin to the Central Bank Governor Lamido
Sanusi. This oil field has the capacity of 300,000 barrels
of oil daily. This translates to $30million dollars daily at
average benchmark of $100 dollars per barrel.
Deducting all sundry taxes, royalties etc , this field can
yield $12billion dollars daily for the owners .
(10)Intel owned by Atiku, Yarádua and Ado Bayero has
substantial stakes in Nigeria’s oil exploration industry
both in Nigeria and Principe and Sao Tome.
(11) AMNI owns two oil blocks OML 112 and OML 117
which it runs Afren plc and Vitol has substantial stakes
in oil blocks. Afren plc is operating EBOK oil fields in
OML 67. Vitol lifts 300,000 barrels of Nigerian oil daily.
Rilwanu Lukman, former OPEC Chairman has stakes in
all these named three companies.
(12) OPL 245 was awarded to Malabu Oil& Gas Company
by Sanni Abacha. Dan Etete, Abacha’s oil minister owns
Malabu Oil. In 2000, Vice President Atiku Abubakar
convinced Obasanjo to revoke OPL 245 given to Malabu
Oil. Etete had earlier rejected Atiku’s demand for
substantial stakes in the high yield OPL 245 and it
attracted the venom of Ota Majesty who revoked the
licence. However, in 2006, Obasanjo had mercy on Dan
Etete and gave him back his oil block worth over $20
billion dollars.
(13) OPL 289 and OPL 233 was awarded during Obasanjo
era to Peter Odili fronts, Cleanwater Consortium,
consisting of Clenwater Refinery and RivGas Petroleum
and Gas Company. Odili’s brother in law, Okey Ezenwa
manages the consortium as Vice Chairman.
(14) OPL 286 is managed by Focus Energy in
partnership with BG Group, a British oil concern. Andy
Uba has stakes in Focus Energy and his modus operandi
is such that you can never see his name in any listings
yet he controls OPL and OML through proxies
(15)OPL 291 was awarded to Starcrest Energy Nigeria
Limited, owned by Emeka Offor by Obasanjo .
Immediately after the award, Starcrest sold the oil
block to Addax Petroleum Development Company
Limited (ADDAX) Addax paid Sir Emeka Offor a
farming fee of $35million dollars and still paid the
signature bonus to the government. Emeka Offor still
retains stake in ADDAX operations in Nigeria.
(16) Mike Adenuga’s Conoil is the oldest indigenous oil
exploration industry in Nigeria. Conoil has six oil blocks
and exports above 200,000 barrels of crude daily.
(17)The oil block national cake sharing fiesta could take
twists according to the mood of the Commander-in –
Chief at the particular time. In 2006, Obasanjo revoked
OPL 246 which Abacha gave to Danjuma because he
refused to support the tenure elongation bid of the
Ota Majesty. In 2000, Obasanjo had earlier revoked OPL
241 given to Dan Etete under the advice Atiku.
However, when the Obasanjo-Atiku faceoff started,
the Ota Majesty made a u-turn and handed back the
oil block to Etete.
(18)During the time of Late President Yarádua , a
panel headed by Olusegun Ogunjana was set up to
investigate the level of transparency in the award of
oil blocks. The panel recommended that 25 oil blocks
awarded by the Obasanjo be revoked because the
manner they were obtained failed to meet the best
practices in the industry. Sadiq Mahmood, permanent
secretary in the Ministry of Petroleum endorsed the
report to then president with all its recommendations.
As a result of the report Yarádua revoked eleven oil
blocks.
(19) In April 2011 Mike Adenuga attempted to buy
Shell’s OML 30 for $1.2 billion dollars. The Minister for
Petroleum and Nigeria’s most powerful woman refused
the sale of the OML30 to Adenuga citing national
interest. This block was later sold to Heritage Oil for
$800 million dollars eleven months later.
(20) In the name of competitive bidding, which
Obasanjo introduced in 2005, Officials bring companies
overnight and through processes best described as
secretive and voodooist they award blocks to party
faithful, fronts and phoney companies. They collect
gratifications running into hundreds of millions of
dollars which is paid into offshore account and the
nation loses billions of dollars of revenue to private
pockets.

In this age and time where young men are busy cracking their head with world changing ideas and innovations, a grown up man will be making sex with a lady a topic for discussion. Do you know that 10-20 years into that marriage, sex will become as irrelevant as your physical outlook in that marriage, what will make your marriage work by then without cheating on your spouse is the bond and oneness of heart you both share.
Sex is overrated and cheap, stop magnifying it. Not to talk of obeying God's standard on it, which a lot of people will wave off like it's nothing these days. That's the reason why thus generation is messed up in their thinking. It's a pity.

Seriously, some people are really messed up in their thinking. Trying to make a bad thing look good. Cheating and love are two contrasting words, you can never justifiably juxtapose the two.
May God help this generation

kaziblake:
fortunately the economy affect both APC and pdp fans so stop the blame game

Do I look like a fan to you or bothered about the whole thing?
My economy is not tied to Nigeria's economy ma'am.

This is just the beginning. When you think a devil can be used to kick out another devil, you will only land yourself in the situation the country is presently.
My peace? I saw it coming

kuffyyy:
Here they go again reminding us of how Jesus suffered for us. Thousands of people have also been tortured and killed for Jesus. Not just martyrs but indirectly also people that were killed by Christians because the refused to covert or were condemned for heresy. A true sacrifice expects nothing in return. If you make a 'sacrifice' and keep reminding people of it, rubbing it in their faces and asking them to love you for eternity even when thousands of others have also died for you is beyond rude. I don't even understand why Jesus had to die for our sins God could have just taken them away (unless maybe the omnipotent God could perhaps not do it??).

You don't understand and you don't want to learn, you simply throw tantrums and wave off anything you don't understand.
Please pretend I didn't quote you aii?

Shollyps:
yet nothing created this god right?....you will say he is beyond our reasoning right?...lol....go and sleep...if god can come out of nowhere...then the universe need no creator...but if God can just be there....without a creator....then you av nothing to argue about . cos your god can't just pop out from nowhere....infinite regress sets in here...

And who told you am here to argue?
I don't give a rip about your arguments sir, it's yours so keep and feed it. God exists and that's mine. Good night

Shollyps:
lol....silly thread as usual...... from all the comment I read ....I see bitterness all over the Christians.... they are pained that people doesn't believe in their imaginary friend......

No sir, we are not pained that you don't believe that God exist, we are surprised at how a grown up adult will believe that nothing created the universe yet everything around him is made from something. How dumb can you get and still breathe?

subsidy removal is good for the country and the people. more money for the government to carry out important projects and create more jobs.for the people, no more elaborate parties, spraying money, blocking the entire street.no more driving around aimlessly looking for girl friends.no more excessive speeds on our roads. people will think twice and put pen to paper and do some home economics.God bless the federal republic of nigeria and president Buhari.

Trust me, I don't usually do this, but can e-slap you just once?
Are you meant to praise Buhari even to the point of sounding like an ignorant person and a sycophant?

I wonder why people prepare every weekday and go to someplace they look forward to fleeing each day at any slightest opportunity and look forward to weekends all the time, that's slavery in disguise
You are simply trading your entire well being for some amount of money every month. Common!

youngpresidooo:
are they lying read mal 3:8-10

They are not lying but read Galatians 3:13 & 3:10. We have been redeemed from the curse of the law.
We don't tithe to please God or to pay off God and be free from the curse as if God is a territorial God father who we must pay allegiance to or be cursed, we ought to do it out of a sense of appreciation and heart of love towards God. Your heart condition for your giving is much more important than the gift.
Remember even if you give your body to be burned without the love of Christ as the motivation, it profits you absolutely nothing.

Mine is Andrew Wommack. His teachings is so so simplified and profound that you can listen to it week in week out.
God is a good God.

I don't prefer either of them, it's like saying am gonna fall sick once in a while. I don't believe in sickness, it's been over 2 years I didn't take even Panadol.

Sistem007:
No wonder I think about God every night. Now I know why.

This ought to be the desire of any young man with a sense of direction and purpose. I don't pray to have a woman that will love me, I pray to have a woman who will love God more than anything, when a woman is in love with God wholeheartedly and not religiously, everything else around her is bliss.

Ma'am is more appropriate, I use it often and haven't noticed their dislike over it. Would they rather be addressed as girl??

I need to be blunt here, unforgiveness and anger towards others is stupid! Because it dosent hurt them or do anything to them, rather it eats you up and keeps you in a sad and unhappy. It's stupid.

Hello guys, my bbm has refused to get connected to the network for some days now, neither sending nor receiving any pings despite the fact that other apps on the phone are working perfectly. I have tried clearing the cache a couple of times and even updated it, yet nothing happened. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Create this scenarios in your mind's eyes.

Am your Mum, sovery rich. Everything you want you can get, I have a mansion which you live in it with me. One day i call you into a room empty, I mean nothing to eat in it, and then I give you an instruction saying, "Am going out my son, see that you touch nothing in this room till I return.
Remember, it's an empty room, and am telling you not to touch anything. What's is there to touch?

Again, I am your parent, am very wealthy. You of course is my child, and so lives in my mansion full of everything. But I call you and instructs you and say "Son, you can make use of everything in the freezer, every thing, only just this "wheat Bread", pls don't touch it", and I went out.
I left everything to your disposal, no restrains. There's assorted of everything. All kinds of breads, eat your fill, but don't touch the Wheat Bread. But you left every other thing you are free to touch and eat, but went to the only one I instructed you don't touch.
In your head or mind's eye, what do you see?

Let me help you. God Wanted to teach Adam Obidience and control.

In the first scenario, the room was empty, so Adam would of course have nothing to touch. If he touched nothing, because there was nothing to touch, would you call that Obidience? Will he be exercising any control? No.

The second scenario. Every thing but ONE is given to you. BUT you are instructed, leave the Wheat Bread alone. But u left the flour bread or corn bread and went for the wheat bread. Would you say Adam did well?
Can you obey instructions without control? No.
If you love me, you will respect me, if you respect me, you will obey me. Finish.
When you ask questions first think.

Profound analogy. God bless you with more wisdom.

God looks at the heart yes, but if you actually know what you are worshipping, anytime you are going to church, your mindset and and dressing should have that same sense of respect and decorum you accord your important and serious outings. Why don't you go naked entirely so that you will fully convince everyone about your stance that God looks at the heart only. Human beings twisting the word of God to suit their fleshy desire. Apostle Paul rightly summarized out; That you have been called to liberty but let not your liberty before God be an occasion for the flesh.

@bxcode.
Thank you so much. All these diabolical laws are enacted without the consent of the electorates. Most of our leaders are not only insincere, they are extremely wicked. Its a pity. They have no idea of leadership.

The pleasure is mine sir. Until we go to the root of our problem and stop pruning just the leaves, we won't make any headway. A lot of Nigerians don't even know who their real enemy of progress is, they think its those of us that tell them that their political masters are nothing but wolf in sheep's clothing and unrepentant blatant liars.

It's funny people are surprised at this post because you hardly see such info online. These are the type of information that our leaders wouldn't want you to be talking about and channeling your anger to, rather they will brainwash you into pdp vs apc squabbles. The problem with Nigeria and Africa at large is greed and selfishness amongst its leaders, look at what these People are using tho govern you and offer you better life, who is deceiving who?
Until politics is made unattractive and less lucrative like what is obtained in saner countries, we will just be going round in circles of deception. Leadership is about sacrifice and passion for service not some enrichment scheme at the expense of who you are leading.
And tomorrow some people will be saying that they are fighting corruption and make promises about a better tomorrow, and then some citizens will actually believe them and stick out their necks for them foolishly.
Having hope under deception and perverted truth is the worst bondage any man can be under and our leaders are typical example of hope under deception. Our leaders are there for selfish reasons, believe in them either APC or pdp at your own peril.
When we see a sincere leader we will know, and the sad truth is that presently we don't have such.

A prophesy can come from God quite alright but you can check the circumstances around such prophesy to know if it's truly from God. Am not questioning this man of God but, the bible makes it clear that righteousness exalts a nation and that sin is a reproach to any people. The bible also tells us that a house divided against itself cannot stand. It went further to tell us that where envy and strife is, there abounds every evil works. Furthermore, it summarised it all bu saying; If only the people who are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, then will I hear their prayers and heal their land.
Juxtapose these few scriptures above with Mbaka's prophesy and see the gospel truth.
Things will be better yea, but are we doing those things that we ought to do? Are we at peace, sincere, averse to lies, greed, corruption and evil? Do we reverence God with our way of life as a nation?
Your guess is as good as mine.

Cutting your cost and expenses and then maximising the little income you have is one of the basic economic principles. If this government is at all sincere which they ain't, first thing to do is to simply plug off all the unnecessary expenses that gulps the little income we generate, before applying other tasking and demanding policies like import substitution, not devaluing the naira and subsidy removal to the economy. But since they don't deem it fit to apply these basic principle to themselves for a start, they face the economy and increase everything that they can possibly increase in order to sustain their ridiculous cost of governance, all at the expense of you and I and the whole economy. The truth is that whatever these set of leaders are doing presently, YOUR INTEREST IS NOT THEIR MOTIVE, and that's why things are falling apart yet they are jerk bent on doing what they are doing. This has been the case with all our past leaders in various arms of government. The earlier Nigerians realise this, the better for us.
It's only the truth that will set us free.

Any slowpoke who shouts PDP !!! POWER in 2019 thunder fire am. It took PDP 16 solid years to mess up the country. In 10months they now want magic in solving the problems they left behind. Amadioha fire all you.

The worst condition one can ever be in is not finding out who your actual enemy is when fighting a war. Can you simply mention who these PDP guys are?
Wait.... am seeing some of them in present APC claiming to be saints and agents of change.
Oga, your condition worse sef because you don't even know that you have a problem.

I voted for Buhari and I regret nothing, and I'm not a government official.

Why am I not regretting? Because I know change is a process and not a quick jump. I'm patient like every reasonable Nigerian and we know Buhari is the best man for the job with time we will get there

Sai Baba!

No sir, every reasonable Nigerians knows that change is broad and can mean anything.
Every reasonable Nigerian knows that change can either be positive or negative, and one have to figure out the one he is clamoring for circumspectively.
Every reasonable Nigerian knows that POSITIVE CHANGE doesn't come from one's history, it is entirely something that you have never ever seen or done before in all ramifications.
Every reasonable Nigerian knows that you can't keep doing the same thing over and over again while expecting positive change. The so so called change agents have held sway our corridors of power since i was a kid or thereabout.
Every reasonable Nigerian knows that politicians all over the world are trained to tell you what you want to hear and you only believe them at your own risk.
Every reasonable Nigerian knows deception when it shows up claiming to be the messiah, can you defeat evil with evil?
Every reasonable Nigerian won't be impressed with charisma or eloquent speeches, rather we look out for character.
Every reasonable Nigerian knows our history, and those leaders that have made Nigeria the Golgotha it is today.
Every reasonable Nigerian saw this whole debacle, and deceptive change chants from afar during pre election era and knew that it's all charade.
If you are surprised by what is presently happening in this country, it's either you choose to be deceived and allowed your intelligence to be played with or you were simply being ignorant and unreasonable.
Good morning.

The world is truly a deadly place. Some of these culprits are top government officials whom millions of lives have been entrusted into their hands. Money and power corps absolutely!!
