The area with the highest number of aides is media, which has eight appointees
We know na. Govt of the media The most surprising thing is that some of the special assistants have their own special assistants, incredible. Please if you're thinking of voting Bubu in 2019, why not do the world a favour by donating your brain to medical research?
Federal government that promised to send former vice president abroad reneged on their promise. What do y'all think happened? Was it because Ekwueme refused to endorse their candidate?
ENUGU—AILING Second Republic Vice President, Dr. Alex Ekwueme was yesterday flown abroad for continued medical treatment but the Federal Government will not bear the cost of the treatment. Sources told Vanguard that this was because the Federal Government has reneged on its promise to bear the full cost of treatment and transportation of the elder statesman to a hospital in London, and referred the issue to the Anambra State government where Ekwueme hails from. According to the sources, the Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, who released an Air Ambulance to take Ekwueme to London, informed the Ekwueme family that was the extent the government could go.
ENUGU—AILING Second Republic Vice President, Dr. Alex Ekwueme was yesterday flown abroad for continued medical treatment but the Federal Government will not bear the cost of the treatment. Sources told Vanguard that this was because the Federal Government has reneged on its promise to bear the full cost of treatment and transportation of the elder statesman to a hospital in London, and referred the issue to the Anambra State government where Ekwueme hails from.
According to the sources, the Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, who released an Air Ambulance to take Ekwueme to London, informed the Ekwueme family that was the extent the government could go.
It was learned that Ekwueme’s younger brother and surgeon, Professor Obumneme Ekwueme, who would have travelled with his brother to London as head of his medical team was dropped from the Air Ambulance because he had problems with foreign exchange that would take care of other exigencies that would arise such as feeding, accommodation, drugs and laboratory tests among others.
Obumneme would now depart for London today, November 13, to join his brother and ensure adequate treatment for him.
The family source wondered why the Federal Government would promise to treat Ekwueme as a former vice president and later renege on such promise.
“We are not surprised about the development because Ekwueme has not been receiving his entitlements from this administration. The Federal Government was not pressurised to make the promise. It did so on its own volition.
“ It is not as if our family could not have treated him in the best hospital in any part of the world. Even if they are not treating him, let them pay him his entitlements when he is still alive. They should not wait until he dies so that they will come and pay tributes to him as the best man while alive,” the family sources said angrily.
Ekwueme was brought to the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu with a National Orthopedic Hospital Enugu, SUV ambulance at about 7: 26 am and driven straight into the tarmac, where he was taken into a waiting air ambulance with registration number N605 JA. The white Air Ambulance was said to have arrived the airport late Saturday evening and spent the night at the airport.
He was transferred into the aircraft in the presence of his family members who escorted him to the airport. The aircraft took off from the tarmac at about 8: 37am with the family members waving to wish him a safe trip.
Among the family members present, was Ekwueme’s daughter Mrs. Onyemelukwe, who is a running mate to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, governorship candidate for Saturday’s gubernatorial election in Anambra State.
The family members had earlier declined comments on the former vice president’s illness, saying that they were not in the mood to speak to the press and did not need any media coverage.
Vanguard journalist manhandled
Meantime, Vanguard’s State Correspondent in Enugu, Mr Dennis Agbo, who witnessed Dr Ekwueme’s airlift was attacked by soldiers, policemen and other airport security officials before they forcefully confiscated his camera, mobile phone and other working tools. Some of the securitymen who were attached to Ekwueme as well as his family members forcefully deleted all the pictures of the Air Ambulance from his camera and mobile phone which they seized, threatening to visit him personally, if the story of the incident was published.
Agbo was briefly detained at one of the offices in the airport, where his mobile phone and empty camera were later returned to him.
OptimusTD: Christ became poor so that we might become rich. Get that fact. Christ had all the riches but he wanted we all to have it to that's why he walked the earth as a poor person.
In the typical Nigerian case, we have become poor so that Pastors can become rich. My own Bible frowns at being rich, don't know the kind of Bible you read but mine says in "Matthew 19:24"
"Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."
KENZINCO: When you are not smart enough to understand parables, we won't be surprise when a person like daddy freeze becomes ur favorite
You're really smart by giving 10% of your earnings to help them buy their aircrafts. It's almost January, get ready to be without salary as you will be giving your "first seed" to your amiable pastor.
Adeebiwa09: I couldn't agree more but I actually have a few questions to ask you in sequence ; did Jesus choose pastors to be the only ones to be like him? Then if freeze is a Christian let him do the works of Christ bible says he that is faithful in little is in much let's us know the work of Christ he has done with his money or with the one tenth he doesn't pay as tithe? If he is doing nothing then he should go and shut up.
By their fruit we shall know them and also show me your faith by your works, let him follow this scriptures and the example of Christ. Btw his continues bashing of "men of God" how has it led anyone to Christ or fulfill the great mandate in Matthew 28:18-19, instead he is hardening people's heart to Christ brother this is not the issue of tithe controversies about tithe has existed even in the time of Christ so why is it important now I am sorry if this offends you but I think freeze is allowing his passion for the truth to be lived to be manipulated by the devil.
Honestly I have a very great reservation for men of God as it has to do with the flamboyant lives they are living honestly it's painful so much that we seem not to be seeing the effect of the Church in the nation and that is our best way of evangelising Christ. If I was freeze instead of exchanging words and been the center of controversies which the Bible clearly speaks against he should be quite and preach his gospel which is funny actually the gospel against tithing. If you are saying you want to free the sheeple preach repentance, holiness, faith, holy spirit etc but even if remotely he does it will still be controversial because freeze does not have the right or proof he can teach the word ask 2 Tim 3
Jesus didn't have time to exchange words with the Pharisees he showed the way with his life, let freeze show people the truth by his life and money (if it's a passion let him have a seminar, program etc to teach and preach and stop ranting on instagram with cheap data).
One thing matters the most Christ and him been crucified and freeze by all indication is an enemy of the cross because he is preaching Christ of malice and causing division. Let you and I be true representation of Christ and see sheep becoming free.
Sorry for the long text book, just wanted to elucidate. Thanks shalom and God bless
I stopped reading where you alleged Daddyfreeze tackling of tithes is hardening people's attitude towards religion. You left out the crux of the problem>The obnoxious and opulent lifestyles of our pastors.
Why is the Frontpage saying PDP governor? Buhari is the president and no matter how obnoxious he is, PDP governors still have to do business with him. This is just mere routine.
HARDDON: Do you know why soldiers that crucified him cast lots with his garment?
Do you know the state of the upper room where they had the last supper?
If more than two cars is a covoy, what do you call two or more ship?
John the baptist ate locusts n drank wild honey, guess what Jesus feasted in?
Finally, do you know the worth of the oilment Mary anionted his legs with?
Let us stop deceiving ourselves. Like begets like .there is no way the almighty God, the owner of heaven and earth could raise poor kids. If you are poor as a Christian, so many factors are responsible which can be traced to YOU as an individual. "For he has given us all things to enjoy! " ... " He was made poor that we might be RICH! "
gone are the days the world refer to Christians as church rats, now they can't stand the sheer opulence n blessings they talk thrash about tithe. Like they can breath in without breathing out.
Giving is living. It is a law of life.... You eat, you must pass out wastes, you in breath, you must out breath.
And tithe is to promote the kingdom of heaven! If presidents ride jets, God's mouth pieces on earth couldnt ride bicycles. The jets are used to futher the last madate of Christ " Go ye into the world and preach the gospel... " Pastors wudnt trek into the globe to do that.
And if you didn't know, the poor ain't poor for lack of money, they are poor for lack of mental ability.
...n Christ even said " the poor you would always have with you..... " why? because not every1 wud be willing to pay the price for wealth whose first price is Reading.
[/s] If you lived that opulent lifestyle you spoke about above, then you already had your reward here on earth.
ooshinibos: daddyfreeze did say tithe can be used to buy alcohol , he was quoting a verse in Deuteronomy , nothing wrong in buying alcohol though so far it is used moderately
Maybe you don't know Jesus did not use a phone talk more about registering as a nairander. why don't you follow Jesus footstep by doing exactly what he does?
[/s]
See how jaundiced your views are? Am I a pastor? When you start giving me 10% of your income then you're free to ask any silly question you have.
Adeboye didn't talk about owning fleets of aircraft, instead he lied about Daddyfreeze. Daddyfreeze never said churches should use tithe money to buy alcohol. His anger is towards billionaire Pastors. The ones who enjoy opulent lifestyles but tell their congregants their reward is in heaven.
Jesus Christ was not wearing gold shoes even though we knew he could. Jesus lived a simple life unlike our millionaire pastors.
Easier for a poor and repentant thief to enter into heaven than these multi millionaire pastors, their heaven is already here on earth.
They will tell you to donate half your salary promising you that God would repay you tenfold.
And I asked them: How much tithe did Dangote, Mark Zuckerberg Bill Gate pay to become so wealthy? God would bless you if you obey him not if you pay tithes. Money means nothing to God.
Make I no lie, I didn't notice any great improvement.

Kundagarten: Niger Delta Avengers Threaten Total Shutdown Of Oil Production After Ending Ceasfire The high command of the militant group, Niger Delta Avengers (NDA), which shut down oil production for much of 2016, on Friday, declared that has ended its ceasefire with the Federal Government.
The declaration was contained in a statement signed by its spokesperson, Major-General Mudorch Agbinigbo. According to the statement, the group will restart hostilities, with attacks on oil installations because of perceived insincerity on the part of the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
