Hello everybody, I have been reading lots of write up here, taking about the possible merge og middle bet with south. I stand to be corrected, coz I don't see any possibility. Which states makes up the middle belt? It Nassarawa, Niger, Kwara, Kogi, Plateau and Benue. Going by this Nassarawa and Niger will never be against the Core North. Kogi to me is inclined to Core North coz the state is predominantly a Muslim populated state. Of all the state here it only Benue and Plateau can align themselves with us. Kwara is a Muslim state, which have a strong bond connection with the core north. So, people just wake up and see in the middle it only in Plateau and Benue that christians have strong presence. It hurt me to say Nigerian muslims are more united than us the christians. Let's hear ur view pls

Am glad u noticed that too

Hello My Christian family, I want to ask somethings, lets reason with each other. Why do Christian go to Pilgrim in Israel?
Did Jesus ask us to do that? or are we just copying the Muslims?
The most annoying part is most people go to Israel without knowing the importance.
Lets compare us and the Muslim
The Muslims said that Pilgrim is part of their fundamental aspect of their religion, every year 3.5millions from all over the world combine in Saudi Arabia to Perform Pilgrim, while us the Christians have no such thing like, no Christians from around the can combine in that kind of figure in one country. Lets stop wasting our money going to Israel for pointless pilgrim, we are just copying the Muslims thats all.
However, in Israel, Christians are not the majority, The percentage are Jews 75%, Muslims 20% Non religious 3% and Christians 2%. Going to a country to Pilgrim where are the most minority, is that logical? Check Saudi Arabia over 96% are Muslims, Check Tibet over 97% are Buddhist, Check Varanasi City in India with 99% Hindu. Why are Christians different?
For those of us , that have visit Israel during this fake Pilgrim, will see some weird things. Like Nigerians are the only ones there no any other National unlike the Muslim Pilgrim.
And for those of us, who have enter the Dome of Rock, which was a formerly a Christian Holy site. Most perform ablution just like how Muslims does before praying, to be honest am confuse. Why do Have to do that in Israel. Please pass this message across, going to Israel is not a religious duty but copying other Religion.

Stop wasting ur time! And come out from ur hidden place. There is not wrong with being Gay.

Enough of the debate. Both Muhammad and Jesus are great Humans.
They founder the World largest religions.
But to Muhammad is greater than Jesus.
Muhammad is the only Human founder of Islam, while Jesus is part of the Founders of Christianity.
In the Koran it was said the Muhammad have complete his mission and choose Islam as ur religion and the followers of the religion are called Muslim, while there is non in the Bible.
Muslim Arabs spread Islam across the Border of the new Islamic Empire, while Pagan Roma who kill Christ in the Firsth place spread Christianity, aint that a bullshit people that killed Jesus to come and spread his religion?
Islamic Religion cut across every aspect of life; Family laws, Marriage, Business, Banking, Political System, Diplomacy, Miltary affairs, taxs, and many more. How about Christianity? We claim only Moral teach of Christ. Muslim can established an Islamic state with Qur'an as their only Constitution. Can Christians establised a Christian state with Bible as their only Constitution without borrowing Man made laws?
No wonder, During the time of colonialism the North is under a Sultanate system of Government.
ISLAM REMAIN THE BEST, Christianity is fast declining. And I cant be a Muslim or a Christian. Secularism till I die

What do expect from a Pedophile? The POPE is a pedophile, and Catholic are sex freak hidden under Priesthood manner. To be honest with u, I've no heard any Sex case in any Muslim Community, why from our christian community?

Nine members of a militant Christian group in the US Midwest were charged yesterday with plotting to kill law enforcement officials.

A federal grand jury in Detroit made the charges against five men and a woman from Michigan, two men from Ohio and one from Indiana who were members of the Hutaree, which views law enforcement officers as its enemies and was "preparing to engage them in armed conflict", the indictment said.

Eight of the suspects were arrested in raids over the weekend. Officials said one suspect, the 21-year-old son of the group's leader, was a fugitive and asked for help in apprehending him.

Andrew Arena, the Federal Bureau of Investigation's special agent in charge, said: "This is an example of radical and extremist fringe groups which can be found throughout our society.

"The FBI takes such extremist groups seriously."

Janet Napolitano, the US homeland security secretary, gave warning last month that the threat of "homegrown" terrorism had increased since Barack Obama had become president and said increasing numbers of Americans were "becoming radicalised to the point of violence".

Ms Napolitano told a meeting of the National Governors Association last month that the US lacked a co-ordinated plan to stop militancy from spreading. She said: "We really don't have a very good handle on how you prevent someone from becoming a violent extremist."

Federal officials said the Hutaree were planning to kill an unidentified local law enforcement officer and then attack colleagues who would gather in Michigan for the funeral.

The group planned to attack vehicles using improvised devices with "explosively formed projectiles", which, according to the indictment, constitute weapons of mass destruction.

Barbara McQuade, US attorney for the eastern district of Michigan, said: "Because the Hutaree had planned a covert reconnaissance operation for April which had the potential of placing an unsuspecting member of the public at risk, the safety of the public and of the law enforcement community demanded intervention at this time."

Kano, the ancient Northern city popular for its groundnut pyramids in the First Republic, is about to offer its landscape to a N252 billion international trade centre. OKWY IROEGBU reports.

CONSTRUCTION has begun on a $2 billion (about N252 billion) project, touted as Africa’s biggest trade city.

The project, to be built on a 121.2-hectare plot in Dangauro Village, on the outskirts of the city, is the brainchild of Integrated Development and Investment Services Limited (IDIS) and the Kano State Government.

Its aim is to create a trade hub capable of redefining the business environment in Northern Nigeria, by providing an attractive environment for investors, tourists and traders, and subsequently transforming the domestic, regional and international economic landscape.

It straddles the intersection of the dual interstate highways running north-south from Kaduna, and east-west towards Maiduguri.

The architectural design, handled by A. T. Onajide Architects Limited, speaks volumes about values. The site is relatively uneven and provides an added advantage in playing with levels with a seasonal stream running across the lower end of the site (east-west). The complex, including its materials selection, symbolises dynamism, innovation and future.

Contract for the first phase was awarded a fortnight ago to Dys Trocca Valsesia & Company Limited, popularly known as DTV, a company with extensive track record of high profile and customised construction.

Sleek, sophisticated and visually-commanding, yet incredibly warm and exotic, Kano Economic City was thoughtfully designed with expansive outdoor entertainment areas to optimise the use of its vast space.

The land use distribution is based on acceptable international and local standards for such facilities, including multi-use (ancillary) buildings, retail and informal buildings, warehouses, roads, parking facilities, landscaping/footpaths, drainage and other infrastructure.

The facility, on completion, would provide ease of circulation and maneuverability for vehicular and human traffic, adequate parking facilities, maximum possibility for interaction among market users, provision and full utilisation of support facilities, efficient goods handling, energy efficiency and ease of maintenance and minimum development standards for health, safety and environmental standards.

Essentially, the city, being financed by a consortium of local and foreign banks led by Oceanic Bank International Plc, will accommodate a five-star hotel, residential and industrial estates, an all-encompassing shopping mall, a World Trade Centre, a retail market, warehouses of several sizes, two large cinema halls, social and recreational facilities, conference facilities, rail terminus, fuel and fire stations, banks, clinics, post offices and a maintenance building.

Some of its major landmarks include a superstructure which will house a five-star hotel with escalators and modern facilities designed to redefine hospitality in the West African sub-region.

The promoters said style, class and panache would be lavishly displayed for businessmen and leisure seekers who go for nothing but the best.

In developing the layout of the recreational facility, three distinct blocks, linked by a semi-basement car park and landscaped courtyard, are created with a parking space for 400 cars, the minimum number required for a facility of such magnitude.

A World Trade Centre is also incorporated in the design. It will house big corporations’ offices in a business-like environment. In developing the office layout, the designers set out to create three distinct blocks linked by a gallery with atriums to let in.

The phases two and three of the project will encompass residential and industrial estates expected to radically transform the real estate and economic landscape of Kano.

Other infrastructural provisions include two huge cinema halls, conference halls and theatres for performing artistes.

The Economic City will also have the biggest shopping mall in Africa. The promoters said the mall will make shopping a very exciting experience. According to them, the facility will be fitted with the latest technology in shopping comparable with that obtained in Mall of Emirates in Dubai. It is expected that when completed, there would be no need for Nigerians and West Africans to travel abroad for shopping as the world’s best designers would be adequately represented.

To adequately cater for the storage of goods and equipment, the Economic City has provision for large, medium and small warehouses where goods and equipment can be stored in perfect conditions, irrespective of the nature of the products.

On the maintenance of the edifice, the promoters said generous provisions have been made for a maintenance building which would house generators, workshops for electrical, plumbing and other support services.

Besides, a reputable international consultancy firm is said to be working on advertising windows with sophisticated and latest technology in advertising delivery for brand promotion and exposure at the city.

The windows include scrolling board, ultra waves, LCD screens, creative wall drapes, high resolution multi advert display board, street flags.

The advert windows have reportedly been pre-designed to accommodate the aesthetic architectural designs to forestall defacing and unprofessional exposure

No Abuses Pls! Only Intellectual reply

Hey! I want to share a story with u! Pls note that all abusive comments are not welcome. I need an intellectual reply, it going to serve as mini project to me. Pls help.
The Story goes like this, ! It happens I've a female friend from Northern Nigerian, she is from an elite home. I went to their house in Kano State to spend sometime with her. I notice something very disturbing about their way of life.
I start seeing it on the first morning, I wake up. She is a faithful Muslim she wakes up early to say her morning prayers. Then when the day break, she turn on her TV to watch news only on Aljazeera news TV. In their house they dont have any Nigerian channel, they dont watch to National news on NTA. She reads newspaper like Daily Trust, and a Kano Based Triumph. She cares less about what going on in Nigeria. All what she cares is Kano and the Arab world.
In the afternoon, we went to see her friends about 4 of them. The situation is all the same, no Nigerian channel on their Sat. Her Friends are Born in Nigeria and School in Nigeria. To my greatest suprise they cant speak English. They speak Hausa and Arabic only. They did their secondary school in the heart of Kano and got Admission in Saudi Arabia to study medicine. I asked on of them to recite the National Anthem, she cant!!! She told me that!!??
Back at my friend home in the evening, I was chatting with her brother, I asked him to recite the national anthem, he did it half way and shut up. I then asked him to recite the National anthem of Saudi arabiya, he did it without any mistake.
I went back to my friend and ask her some few Nigerian Leaders, mostly current Governors from the South East and Niger-Delta. She dont even know one of them. But she can name all the Governors in United Arab Emirate, including Syria, Yemen, Oman, and off course Saudi Arabia. I became totally speechless.
In their house they have 4 Saudi Arabia's flag and non Nigerian flag.
I've chatted with more 50 young people in Kano the condition remain the same. Generally Speaking Kano have very strong tie with the Arab world, than Nigeria States nothing can change this. No wonder many Arabs indigenize in Kano and can run for elections and win!!!.
Many Kano Boys want to marry Arab woman, they like them 100% more Nigerian girls. Most Younger generation of Kano have Arab roots. So pls Nigerian what can u say about this

The percentage of self-identified Christians has fallen 10 points in the past two decades. How that statistic explains who we are now—and what, as a nation, in USA they have choose to be realist not idealist. Fairy tales of Bible will soon be over, And we shall celebrate the fall of christianity. The religion of lies and confusion. We choose Democracy, freedom over Crazy ass Christian religion. No wonder America is the best place to visit in the world.

@ ElRazur

ElRazur:
It smacks of irony if you condemn one religion when it appears you have little knowledge of yours. I will take what you say with a pinch of salt. Your religion is a "celebrity religion" and it was founded by a former Science fiction writer. I dare you to explain your religion to anyone here. If nobody thinks your religion is ridiculous then I will rest my case.

Scientology teaches that people are immortal spiritual beings who have forgotten their true nature. Scientology's means for spiritual rehabilitation is a type of counseling called "auditing
Scientology promotional campaigns. They include moral guidelines expressed in a brochure called The Way to Happiness, the Narconon anti-drug program, the Criminon prison rehabilitation program, the Study Tech education methodology, a volunteer organization and a business management method.
Leave a crime and mind cooling life.

All my life, I leaved in a depressed life in a christian Nigerian family home in Abuja and U.S., Until recently I left my parent devilish religion of christianity, to join a mind cooling and true religion of scientology, today I concerned myself as a democractic scientologist. And the US Constitution is my holy book, and L. Ron Hubbard as my savior.
I read one news online the really kept me smiling and happy that CAN is lobbying in NASS to pass gun law in Nigeria. The truth is gradually coming to light, I've told my of friends that CAN is not but a terrorist organization. I've seen CAN led churches keeping Guns in church, which is suppose to be a "worship place", now turn into a Terrorist storage facilities. What will the gun law benefit CAN? because it's a terrorist organization who seek to use gun in the street of Nigeria cities. Campaigning and collecting our money in churches to buy guns right? I knw Church is nothing but a business centre, and sex centre many evidence has been shown to public. What has CAN achieve in Nigeria? Creating confusion about the 2000 christian sect in Nigeria. For ur own information the Full meaning of CAN is (Collection Anti Nigeria). That why many CAN hidden agenda fail because u worship Blue eye status of Jesus and Mary. U kneel and bow to Fake ass Jesus status and thinking u worship God. How can Human kill GOD As u think dat Jesus was kill for ur own Sins Pls come out of fairy tales and face the reallity no country outside believe in Jesus like u did. That why U keep terrorist organization like CAN to lead, Niger-Delta Terrorism full supported by CAN, Economic melt down, Lack of power supply and many other are as result of CAN, Blue Eyed Status of Jesus and fake ass Bible.[b][/b]

The truth is gradually coming to light, I knw right from beginnin CAN is a terrorist organization. I have seen CAN led churches keeping guns in the so called place of Worship. I am an ex christian. Now I chose to be a democratic scientologist as my religion. Because Biblie is a false book. The Full naming of CAN is collection Anti Nigeria. What do u knw with gun laws Only terrorist believe in using Gun. U are a disgrace, Bleep CAN, if u wanna be down with CAN Bleep u and fucking momma, I make sure all ur offspring do not grow, Bitch out punks!
