Yes oh, blood for blood we Edo people must resist buhari and his dogs


I wish I'm in Edo now
Of course you cannot be in Edo because you are not from Edo, yet you can hide your faceless cowardice and stoke fire in another man land.
If that is what you are doing, you may not escape similar fate.

Edo people, count your teeth with your tongue. Not all those urging you on loves you!!!

PoliticsRe: Buhari’s Economic Reforms Are Bold – Obama by cyprex: 5:05pm On Sep 21, 2016
NgeneUkwenu:
If Okonjo Iweala, a woman that had seen it all could come out to say at an American conference that the SEED OF THIS RECESSION WAS PLANTED DURING THE JONATHAN REGIME DUE TO OUR LACK OF FINANCIAL DISCIPLINE, INABILITY AND LACK OF POLITICAL WILL TO SAVE. Then Those Harshly Criticizing Buhari, Should In All Honesty, Do A Retrospective Search On Their Conscience...

Obasanjo's administration earned # 17trn [/b]from crude oil sales within eight years and left behind 45bn dollars external reserves and 3.348bn dollars external debt.

Yaradua grew the reserves to [b]64bn dollars
within just one year and the administration was able to finance 15 months of imports despite the 2008/2009 world economic meltdown. Hence, Nigeria survived the melt down because of the political will by the administration to save(a great achievement by Yaradua which most Nigerians are not aware of). Despite the tough economic reality at that time, Yaradua left 47.7bn dollars in reserves and an external debt of 3.94bn dollars. Meanwhile, the administration earned only # 9trn from crude oil sales within that short period.

Now, Jonathan administration witnessed an oil boom when Brent crude sold for over 100 dollars/barrel, with the regime earning # 51trn within a period of 5years. But because of corruption, the administration did not only squander the oil revenue but even depleted the reserves left by Yaradua, leaving just 32bn dollars and a huge external debt of 63bn dollars for Buhari. The same Brent crude sold for as low as 35 dollars/barrel at a point shortly after Buhari took over power and had only managed to climb to about 48 dollars just recently.

These are facts that can be verified. So, it's amazing hearing people criticize Buhari for the hunger in the land.

According to Fashola, Buhari's administration inherited 206 uncompleted road projects and contract arrears worth #2.1trn from Jonathan; and for about 2 to 3 years the contractors where not paid. This slowed down the economic activities, with most of the companies laying off their staff. This was when the seed of recession was sowed.

It's obvious that Buhari came in to rescue Nigeria, because if Jonathan had continued in power, the nation's economic crisis would have been worse, perhaps even the Federal government wouldn't have been able to pay salaries of civil servants by now.

According to Okonjo Iweala, Nigeria started borrowing money to pay salaries since October, 2014; but today Nigeria now borrow money for investment in capital projects.

Those who blame Buhari for the current hardship do so either out of mischief (hatred) or ignorance. So, we shouldn't join the bandwagon in criticising him. [b]He may not have done much to save the situation, considering that he is not a perfect human being but he means well for the country and can only succeed with our prayers[/b].

[size=15pt]May Almighty God continue to guide Baba Buhari.
[/size]
AMEN, AMEN and AMEN.

Baba should however stop lamenting Jonathan's woes and embrace God's direction. We shall surely get out of this recession with the support of the Holy Trinity.

While I believe that this government will eventually get us out of the woods. I think this blame of the previous government is becoming a sing song. The president should stop using every opportunity he has to talk about the failures and corruption of the past administration, we already know. He should heed the advise of the revered Bishop, roll his sleeve and go to work.

It seems you choose your religion because of what you may likely gain over others and not because you believe and submit to a higher being- God. if you submit to God you will obey him even when His instruction seem adverse.

ifenes:
So what is it then? You agree the husband is the woman's master?
You got it wrong, the Husband is not master to the woman, neither is the man master to the woman.
The simple teaching is that "A husband is master to the wife" not woman. There are many men who are not husbands so also are there many women who are not wives.

you can be a woman without being a wife, but so long as you want to be "wife" you MUST accept your Husband as master".
Christianity EtcRe: Ishaq Akintola Cautions CAN, Uses TB Joshua As Example by cyprex: 1:52pm On Sep 07, 2016
Will we ever learn our lessons?
Our utterances are gradually preparing the ground for the mother of all genocides.
Be you Christian or Muslim leader, you seem not to know the seed you are sowing or are you intentionally leading us in this war part?

One wonders where the issues confronting us are coming from.
Every action taken is interpreted along religious line.

our Muslim Brothers should watch their actions in order not to be seen as promoting violence or dominating others.

Some of these issues need not attract the undue attention they attracted, including:-
a. Hijab issue in Osun.
b. Alleged subsidy on Haj fares through CBN.
c. visit of John Kerry to Sultan.
d. Now the issue of Sultan fixing public Holiday.

As we try to adjust our mind set back to normal after one hate generating issue, another will be popped out. Can we be allowed to love ourselves again?

I am a Catholic Christian but I doubt if CAN is right by raising dust over all these. How negatively would it affect our practice of Christianity if the opinion of the Sultan is sought before fixing an Islamic public holiday which is based on Islamic calendar?
We may choose to disagree with John Kerry but he may not be entirely wrong to praise the Sultan over his peaceful overtures. (@John Kerry, please schedule a visit to a Christian leader in Nigeria and praise him for promoting peace because in Nigeria, you must balance everything)

May be most Christian are apprehensive and interpret these developments with a pinch of salt especially in the light of Boko Haram and Herdsman incidents and events in other parts of the world. However, the leadership of CAN should know better.

Christ preached peace all through and even prevented Peter from fighting for him but I doubt if the actions & utterances of these CAN leaders over these issues represents what Christ would have done or said.

While Christianity is immutable, the principles of CAN seem to be changing depending on who is in office. CAN's principle MUST be based on 'HOW WOULD CHRIST HAVE DONE IT'

Our Muslim brothers on the other hand should desist from acts of violence except if the enjoy to associate Islam with violence.

CrimeRe: Bricklayer Rapes Sex Worker In Lagos by cyprex: 4:02pm On Sep 01, 2016
I take the whole of this story with a pinch of salt.
I doubt the possibility of police establishing rape and robbery in this case.
where did he rape her, inside the taxi, on the road, or on the floor of the bush? it is obviously not inside the house as he merely pointed at it.
How did he throw her into the gutter, dead or alive?

The story did not say whether the call girl reported the matter to the police immediately the incident happened with fresh evidence.
It is notorious fact that sex workers usually allege rape once there is argument about price.

The alleged crimes cannot be proven by simply alleging them. They require proof beyond reasonable doubt.

I however suspect that the sex worker have a highly placed police man as boy friend and has paid in kind for this job.

It is expected that the police should have done thorough investigation and not just charge a citizen punitively.
Except if they have more evidence than this as what it is stated here is simply story about the cock and the bull.

PoliticsRe: Oyegun Receives 3000 Of Their Supporters In Edo Into The APC, Says PDP Is Dead by cyprex: 12:17pm On Sep 01, 2016
The dead of a political party does not imply dead of individual members.

The difference in political parties is the ideology and not the membership.

Get it into your head, it is not the people but the institution.
The members of the political parties are citizens who ordinarily desire the best. However, the lack of ideology and basic tenets of democracy distort their priorities.
the same set of people working with the right ideology provided within an institution, will act differently.

We practice party democracy.

Christianity EtcRe: 30 Girls Rescued From Pastor’s Sex Camp In Lagos by cyprex: 10:28am On Sep 01, 2016
This statement do not have sufficient details to show that the Pastor actually committed the crime alleged.
That mere fact of housing some girls or making love to some two girls is not conclusive evidence of 'sex camping' or rape. we therefore await outcome of police investigation.

Though, fornication remains a sin before God.

However, any person that chooses to be identified as 'PASTOR' must not only keep away from evil but also avoid all occasions such evil.

I make bold to say that never in the history have Nigerians voted based on reason and deep considerations than they did in the last election.
It was very clear and Nigerians judged rightly too that the country was floundering under GEJ. Security, corruption, impunity and total lack of will power to address issues were synonymous with the last administration.

We didn't vote PMB expecting a miracle, but we were sure that security will be restored, corruption reduced and impunity tackled. We also expected sincere direction on the part to economic recovery (not by fictitious re-base).

PMB has not met my expectations 100% but he is indeed walking in the right part.
He will get Nigeria back on the right track within reasonable time.
