It is the job of the poor and the jobless to create myths about one succesful person fighting each other.

OBJ and IBB will exchange banters and help one another - but the poor will continue to have an illusion that the two dont see eye to eye.

Just as they have created an impression that Tinubu and PMB dont see eye to eye.

Ronaldo will hug Messi and move on. They are both super rich. Yet some fellow will tell you how they dot see eye to eye.

Poverty of the mind is as bad as poverty itself.

I reject poverty of the mind. I reject poverty.

Redeemed people. Jesus people. Coming tops. Congrats.

They obviously had no time for MMM and similar stuff.

Lagos should stop deceiving itself. Anyone travelling on the roads of Lagos today would have seen loads of local governments touts harrassing motorists openly....and those shameless black and white dressed pot-belied men as well, who cant stop harrassing motorists. Which tourist will come visit where this happens?

Please sir, we like your strides...help put a stop to harrassments on the roads. before you travel 10 minutes Road Safety, VIO, Police and LG would have stopped you asking for road worthiness on a 2 year old car!

APC - the new PDP.

The sponsors of BH cannot be small boys. Where are they and why have they not been named?

She is a VICTIM of BH too!

Is there not a way to detonate the bombs? Shooting them is possibly what BH will be happy with. These girls and boys (7 year olds) are innocent.

The Imam should just have minded his business.

Wrong place. CBN does not sell dollars at 500 to the dollar! They do not even have their facts!

Kind of dry joke - for kids!

Neddstark:
I will only commend PMB when he chooses to tax churches who are meant to be charities and Non-Profit Organizations but they sell books at Bookshop prices. They Establish private universities that are expensive to enroll in. They implore churchgoers to pay their 10% of their income to the church. They also collect offerings and building funds too. These ministries are making a whole lot of money and they are good in showing off in a way that makes atheists proud of their decisions.
Lets face it one of the best churches the world ever had is the Catholic church. These guys went all around the world, risked their health and lives for the gospel. Wherever they were they built schools, orphanages, hospitals, etc. That is charity. That is what Christianity is all about. Love to God and your fellow men.
Even if I am neither a catholic nor in favor of some of their doctrines, I am motivated to give to their church. For the record, I also like the way they transfered Mbaka who wanted to wield influence like the pentecostal pastors. My question on the recent Adeboye handover was why did he handover RCCG Nigeria to one of the church's FINANCIAL CONTROLLERS?

#bringbacktruechristianity

Do a proper check. Businesses owned by churches are often taxed. The only exemption are clergymen, which is the practice world over.

The reporter will soon be reported!

Since we expect the auditor to be audited!

Round pegs in round holes.

Kudos.

About time.

Was he qualified for the job in the first place? What was the board thinking? They all chose to embarras the FG!

Financial Reporting Council is a place you needed a strong technocrat that can wisely probe financial recklessness of profit making organizations.

Rather than focus on those, they chose to start attacking churches and NGOs.

The supervising Minister wrote asking them to withold their actions but they refused. Where in the entire Civil Service do you hear of such?

When you are in government it is easy to preach compliance and raise brimstone and fire. When you are out.....let us see how much compliance they can comply!

They all very grossly embarrased the government they were serving! Shows lack of craft and competence.

Senseless Talk.

Now I know that being able to make noise does not mean that you are intelligent!

Ask people who were at the meeting - The man never said he was retiring. He only said that an overseer was being appointed for Nigeria, while he will continue his role looking after the churches in all 192 countries where RCCG has churches.

Some people jumped to the press without hearing the man out and the church swiftly corrected the mis-information spread by those people.

It is silliy to compare this to Gambia.

Pastor Obayemi has assumed his new role as Overseer for Nigeria (as announced) and Pastor Adeboye continues with his leadership of the church globally (as announced).

Stop the bullying. Stop mis-informing people.

The church is marching on!

A wise government would leave the church alone and face its own challenges.

The new laws amount to gross infringement, but certainly, the church will march on.

It is just so sad that a non-compliant government will be spending so much energy preaching compliance!

What is the role of government in society? To provide security and work for the welfare of her citizens. How well have they compied with that?

If we go by the reports we read, govrenment has been taking care of itself only. Even pensioners are owed arrears of 77 months in some places!

Leave the church alone.

You see Police asking a driver of a new BMW car to present the car's 'road worthiness' certificate, whereas 9 out of 10 Police vehicles are hardly road worthy!

This is the case of government agencies preaching COMPLIANCE! There is no compliance anywhere in government. Where is NNPC's P&L statement? Who knows what CBN spends? Where are the budgets of Senate and House of Reps? Does the FG really follow budget? How much of 2016 budget was achieved?

It is also similar to Nogeria's Senate spending months and months vetting the FG budget, whereas no one has ever seen the budget of the Senate!

What on earth is the business of FRCN number of years spent as GO? It is a road that leads to nowhere.

Government should leave churches alone. It is sad to know that the law was passed under GEJ!

PIB law that is said to be beneficial to the nation's economy has been lying fallow for more than 10 years. Thay they wont pass into law.

Their cups will soon be full.

At the meeting Pastor Adeboye held with pastors he never at one moment said he had resigned or retired. he only announced an overseer for nigeria.

In a country where a 7 year old boy is lynched for stealing garri (less than N100 Naira) and where patients die in Emergency wards for not being able to cough out N1,000, only a deranged person will be clapping for people named in this saga.

The amount mentioned here can fix the roads in the entire ND area, yet some people applaud the thieves who can only think of using stolen funds to buy mansions in Milan, Dubai, Atlanta, Greece and London!

Same time as price of diesel climbs to N265 per litre - Vicious cycle per excellence.

Jammeh read a book about June 12 and MKO saga perhaps!

Africa will rise one day.

Sleekyshuga:
Mr Seun, please, this news isn't true.. The lady in the picture was a course mate, not on MMM neither is she getting married any soon or to one who provided her with help or whatever..

It's already causing her emotional torture as virtually all bloggers have this on their site without full verification.. Lord!! I will be glad if news are verified before posting on front page as this can chase away future suitors or harm her psychologically..

P.S: The young stoopid man (Valentine Onu) who is a cousin to her guardian in Port Harcourt actually took that photo with her during a wedding last year.. Why he used it to promote MMM on Facebook which has gone viral is what we don't know..

Please, this news isn't TRUE!!!

I thought as much. The lady looked too decent for the fellow in that picture!

AWhat did he call it? 'Wedding rigging'......RIGGING indeed. A seeemingly desperate lady meets an unserious fellow and they immediately agree to wed! Why dont they do the RIGGED wedding on 14th January?

Sunnynwa:
You end up displaying your ignorance. Do you even know who Ekwueme was before he ventured into politics? Ekwueme could afford to send his children to any school in the world he deemed fit before he became VP.

I hope you know that he donated one million naira to NPN before he was chosen as VP candidate in 1979 at a time when one naira was more than $2 and brand new cars were going for around N5000. In today's money, that money should be well above one billion naira if I may say.

Here is a man who owned real estate in all parts of Nigeria, owning hotels in every state capital of the then 19 states.

Always get you facts right before you speak in public so as not to make a fool of yourself bro.

Happy new year to you.

Good comment.

Nigeria has a time bomb. Two out of three young people you meet are filled with hatred for everything. Its quite sad. You also notice that we are far behind on education. People go to school these days, somehow pass exams, but remain uneducated. That you were able to send your children to Switzerland - how does that make you a thief?

I know people who have never taken a single government job or project and have worked hard enough to send all their kids abroad to school. That a man is rich does not mean he has stolen - Too many youths are filled with hatred. Yet, many are intellectually lazy and would STEAL a lot if they ever get to government.

They met on MMM.

She went all the way to Enugu to meet a stranger!

They spent LITTLE time together!!

He quickly proposed to her based on the little time!!!

The girl accepted!

I kind of feel she had 'accepted' before they even met.

This situation calls for prayers. I just dont want to be pessimistic.

What do you call this?

PMB may not be doing fine on the economy but the efforts to curb corruption must be encouraged. Our government people are truly FANTASTICALLY corrupt. Nigeria' kind of corruption, if not curbed, could kill Nigeria!

bunmit:
Is the so called pastor not a Nigerian, what right do you have that he doesnt have or not entitled to?

Abi o.

APC just lost it!

giftedheart1:
I just begin to wonder when this generation will rise up and learn... Now the poor girl has been disgraced right? While the stupid and foolish men we voluntarily and sheepishly voted for are stealing our billions that can buy more than 5 chickens each for every Nigerian. It is well! Though I'm not in support of what the girl did, but it is not in anyway FAIR for them to naked her... This can affect her psychologically..
naija youths... Pls let's wake up and rise up to what belong to us!

The same people are screaming Atiku 2019.

Welcome back, 'great Ibori'!

Diezani, our woman......


There is such a great scarcity of common sense in Africa. Even the common sense senator has stoped speaking now....is that because there is too much to chop?

To contest he will have to get a state pardon from the United Kingdom. Is that possible? BH Shekau probably stand a better chance!

Young Nigerians would rather believe MMM than take to a warning prophecy (not a promise) by a servant of God.

Just read about Zika and understand that it was indeed sexually transmitted!

Zika may have been known before to scientists, but it only became widespread in 2016!

Another prophecy misquoted - It would get worse before it gets better in Nigeria. That was the prophecy. The man of God only asked that we should pray that it would get better faster than expected. And indeed we still pray that things get better under this regime. It is possible.

Obvious he still has loads of money, and still has accidental friends!

Someone should advise him to keep some silence at least for a while.
