Rubbish. I hope senators from benue and kogi were not part of that meeting. If Almost 100 years after amalgamation, an issue like this comes up, then we have no business being together. lugard made a terrible mistake.

odum desmond: My problem with ur likes is that u cry more than the bereaved, has any person who gives tithes and offering ever come to u to complain about ur perceived exploitation? Surely those of us who "s*tupidly" give tithes and offering and also "st*upidly" get blessed in giving don't complain at all, infact I ve emptied my pocket several times for God and ve never failed to get double fold blessings in return, there is a mystery many pple re not aware of, it works for us and we can't just stop giving because ur type re crying out. My papa Bishop Oyedepo started out morethan 30 years back from a thatched roof church in a remote village, he was a graduate with prospects in a Nigeria of that time when employers would come to plead with u on the day of ur graduation to work for them, with huge tempting offers of salary, accommodation and even car; but he chose God, he chose to become a preacher than work , he was rejected by his dominantly Muslim family, he was mocked at, his parents felt they had lost a son, but he held on to what he believed in. Today, after all his suffering, he has in turn become raised by God and people are talkin, where were u wen he was goin thru all these for God, life teaches that there is no limit to which a man can get if he remains dedicated, committed and upright, he chose these and he is not only blessed but has become a blessing to thousands employed in several businesses he has. He doesn't ve to earn from church offering or tithe, he also has interest in businesses and has access to the best brains to work for him. Let me even ask, a church that has more than a million memeber world wide, shud owing private jet be too much? Have u read about Kenneth Copeland, his church has as at 3 years back given away about 25 jets as gifts to other ministries world wide. Is jet too big for God's work? Would we rather have a man who would teach decency, love, morals, fear of God, etc to fly on private jet just to meet preaching schedules world wide than give same private jet a Hollywood porn star/ artiste who only needs it to fly all over the world to promote nudity and immorality? The place we call Cannan land at Ota before Oyedepo came was a thick forest, the church has turned it to the best city in Nigeria, nobody is commending him and the church, Adeboye lived at Redeemed camp ground alone when it was a jungle with only him and his wife, surrounded by bush, no electricity, pipe borne water etc their kids refused living, with them there, today it has become a city like none in Nigeria in terms of organisation and facilities, a fit no Govt with billions of oil money in Nigeria has accomplished , yet for them to fly on small 10 passenger private jet is causing uproar in Nigeria. God is watching us all. I believe that a man who has paid so much that many other re unwilling to pay should enjoy what others are not entitled to, all pastors can't be on same level.

completely brainwashed. May God deliver you.

ujchief: Few years back, Pastor Bimbo Odukoya 'of single and married' lost her precious life on the sosoliso plane crash.
Another pastor (name forgoten) lost his life on the Dana plane crash.
It seems u guys are more interested in seeing people die daily on ur ill-managed and non-regulated airplanes than seeing men of God prosper beyond ur myopic imagination. If not for the poor state of the nation, how much does a private jet cost?
I would have been enjoying pastor bimbo's programs till date if she had her own jet to fly her around.
Ride on pastors, u guys give me hope and help re-affirm my faith that the word of God really works!

completely brainwashed. May God help you to see your folly. By the way, are you a man of satan?

completely brainwashed. spend more time studying the bible instead of listening to empty messages from the so called men of God. By the way, are you a man of satan?

Iolo: @op,

Most of the Northern states are Sharia states where public sale of Alcohol is banned. Alcohol is not even advertised in their NTA stations over there(they scramble out such when hooked to the general NTA broadcast).

Besides, there's very few places in the North with any part of rain forest besides Plateau. The rest states are desert and semi-desert terrain. Very harsh even for the boldest.

I don't think any of the Northern states would welcome them cef as it would be against their Sharia laws.

so benue and kogi are also desert states. Na wa for your geography teacher oh. Abi na u no pay attention for class?

Abujabir24: @op i can see you mentioned Plateau state here. is dat not in the north? by the way, last time i checked, gulder is alcohol, so we muslims are prohibited to do any thing related to alcohol. weather buy or do business with their companies. so its not a welcomed idea. even the companies know it. Plateau is north but the christians are in control of it. By the way, pls is alcohol not forbidden in christianity?

how many of the forbidden items have you been able to avoid as a muslim? Keep deceiving your self..

ROSSIKE: Another Useless, worthless, garbage report.

Who was the source of the claim? The Guardian (UK) does not state. For all we know it was the Guardian reporter himself inventing the claim using his 'unnamed source' as buffer. Don't trust these UK reporters past where you can see them.

It really would help if Nigerians start to read these dodgy foreign reports with their brains, and discard them accordingly. Was it not this same British media that gave all the credit for ECOMOG ie Nigeria's removal of the rebels in Sierra Leone to Tony Blair? If you were in the UK at the time like I was, you would think it was the UK military that brought the conflict to an end, such was the completely biased and false reporting of the conflict! Not a whiff about Nigeria and the huge, pivotal role she played in the conflict.

Now today they issue this wild and baseless report about Nigerian troops and some of you just gobble it up without thinking? Pathetic.

don't mind NIgerians. Very glad to read negative reports about the country without verifying the authenticity or otherwise of the report... The story is very far from the truth about the Nigerian army. But let us first deal with our own internal problem first before thinking of any malian problem.

rufflychux: It does NOT matter who wins. USA is in ALOT of debt and they will continue being drowned in debt upon debt if they don't pull their troops out of the Midle East. 9/11 was a FALSE flag perpetrated by the Bush administration.
Romney, like Obama, supports the indefinite occupation of the middle east countries.
Here is a picture of USA debt as of 2012

9/11 was the biggest false flag in the history of the world.

keep quite if you have nothing to say.

freecocoa: I don't like anything from the sea and the smell of fish makes me wanna puke.
I can only manage to eat fish, if it is thoroughly fried.
So Meat it is for me minus snail, periwinkle and many others.
Goat, cow, chicken and turkey are about the only types of meat i eat.

like you, I am allergic to all forms of sea food. Perceiving the aroma of fish in any meal is enough to make me throw up. I avoid fish like a plaque.

tchidi: I beg to differ... A pastor selling books he wrote, isn't wrong and isn't exploitation.
Olive oils are bought outside and brought in for prayers...not the pastors selling them.
Pictures are not sold by the pastors either!! Someone snaps a pastor, makes an enlargement and puts ut up for sale..another believes it can do miracle, buys it n puts it at home..how is that the pastors doing?
That's my simple opinion, but then, maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm not.

what steps did the pastor take to discourage this exploitation? If nothing then he is as guilty as the people that engage in this practice. God de see them sha

malele: Seriously I don't know how else to talk to my igbo brodas.
How can we go outside ur house and feel comfortable in someone else house with the current structure on ground in 9ja.
Go to north , southwest (lekki) you see them building all sort of mansion while dey have nothing at home.
Seriously we have to start thinking o

there must be something wrong at the home front that makes them prefer to build mansions outside while having nothing at home... Identify what this something is and address it first.

Nonsense talk. Bankers out there, be wise. Invest on things that have value not women. When down sizing catch you, women go run away.

Forget the money and move on with your life.

Yeye talk. Rushdie author of satanic verses could not be killed despite the huge price placed on his head. With this pronouncement, expect more of such films

mumu

Nigerians, pls dont loose sleep over this boko haram impasse. Just like the political sharia spearheaded by the then zamfara governor, it will die naturally. All we need do is to call on God.

look   elsewhere   for   another   lady.   JW   is   a   cult group.   Members   who   get   married   outside   the   group   get   ostracized.   This  lady   if   a   strong   member   will   not   risk   this.   I   know   a   lady   who   along   with   his   only   sister   were   thrown   out   by   their   father   for   dumping  the  group.   Her   current   condition   is   pathetic.
