For the record there no record this church is 100,000 capacity, infact if you look at that building it can't take more than 40,000 people

Are you trying to say this is 3 times akwa ibom stadium ...plus calabar stadium as jara?

Don't tell me people sit on the floor and they don't sit on the floor of the stadium, let's say the the ground is 2.5 times the size of a football pitch... That's around 25,000 square meters at best, the maximum this can sit with chairs is not up to 30,000 people, the gallery can't sit 10,000 people that I can say for sure... OK let's that it 15,000 around size of calabar stadium into one and half


Come on, church goers are dumb we know!!!! Don't bring your brain washing to the public

While it might seem difficult to believe, it appears to be possible.

From what i can see, the pitch can can take approximately 60k ppl. If you look at the pictures in the link below, you will notice that the sitting arrangement is partitioned into what appears to be between 300 and 500 per partition. Then the gallery.

Looking at it from the drone view, how many partitions do you think they have there.

Not confirming anything though, but may just be possible.

abdulaz:

Yen Yen Yen.

Are you not an African? Do something about it.

If every Nigerian took their jobs as seriously as the Pastors take their own job, we won't be in the mess we are in as a country.

Don't blame the church for Africa's backwardness. I tell you, if the churches were not here, we would have been in a lot more mess.

I don't remember discussing with you employment figures.


Were jobs lost based when Atiku sold off NITEL and others and did he pay their pensions or not? Yes or No?


Counter what I said and not what I did not say.



Is there a criminal case and FBI affidavit against Atiku in the USA? Yes or no?

The sale if Nitel caused job losses for many Nitel staff. But it and the sale of other government run companies showed government's interest in having a private sector driven economy. This gave rise to massive investments by foriegn companies in the telecom sector and thereby creating a real telecom industry which has created millions of jobs ( and many of the defunct nitel staff were reemployed) as well as entrepreneurs.

If Atiku has a case with the FBI, they should lock him up when he gets to America. Until then, its just an allegation.

If Nitel staff were not paid there pensions, they should be in court as we speak. And in dye course, they'll get their entitlements.

idealogical:
This is according to FBI agents and affidavit.

The deal was to let the American company establish a high-speed internet company using Nigerian telecom company Nitel's lines. Atiku eventually sold Nitel to another company, possibly to himself and cronies for $900 million, but didn't bother to pay the sacked Nigerians and their pensions, the PDP governments after did not bother to pay them either, but luckily for the same Nigerians, PMB paid every kobo owed.

Selling Nitel was a deception, the main target was Nitel's real estate assets all over Nigeria from the Nitel building itself to office buildings, guest houses in Ikoyi, VI , 500 real estate component scattered all over the country with a value running into billions of naira including NITEL's buildings such as staff quarters, schools, clinics and so on.

Atiku destroyed and eliminated thousands of jobs while enriching himself, they did not bother to pay their pensions, but he's posing to gulling Nigerians with amnesia as a job creator when in fact he's crook and job destroyer.

Give us the figures of unemployment pre 99 and 2007.

I am saying this because i got a good job in 2017 as well as over 90% of my course mates in school.

So on what basis are you saying that jobs were lost then?

Provide the stats or shut that orifice you call a mouth.

Nbote:
But why is d govt and APC interested in whether d US issues him visa or not? I thought dey dared him to go to America so if Atiku is seeking visa from d US how is it d APCs business? Instead of focusing on Issue based campaigns, dey'll rather indulge in smear campaign and calumny...

They are a useless bunch that's why.

Deepthoughts:
But with deep reflection about this,is this not a proof that the dullard buhari is never truly in control neither is he really respected!,if Nigerians don't vote out Apc/buhari in 2019,then we are fools.

Look believe it or not most Nigerians are fools. Illiterates and literates alike.

There are many of such fools on nairaland even among the mods, jumping from one thread to the other saying buhari is Nigeria's messiah.

I have said it earlier that buhari winning in 2023 will be a witness to the fact that we are a nation not destined to make progress.

SocialJustice:
At all at all, APC will implode before election. Buhari will just follow up to fulfill righteousness. Power has left APC.

Some South westerners are ready to shed their blood to see to it that buhari is reelected, all in a bid to have power in 2023. Yet those ones are the ones who call others tribalists.

Imagine a respected elite like Fashola telling people to vote buhari for the sole purpose of having power return to SW.

Its a shame.

tendingNews:
Here is the moment angry Governor Abdulaziz Yari of Zamfara state sounded a serious warning to Adams Oshiomhole, the APC national Chairman.


Yari says: "I'm saying that the committee sent by Oshiomhole to come and do their dirty job should never dare come to Zamfara state. And we are ready, including myself to be taken to the grave yard tomorrow. If he knows that his mother and father born him, he should send those people to see and it's fight to finish."

Watch the video
HERE

Governor is angry!

These are the idiots and touts telling Nigerians they they will take them to the next level, and some lunatics believe them.

In the 19 years of PDP existence, we have not seen such in house war.

Imaging a sitting governor threatening to kill his party chairman and his committee, and the party has a leader in the person of that sitting president, yet nothing will happen.

Any Nigerian voting for this party to be in charge of this nation, is an unfortunate being.

Even if you don't like PDP or atiku, vote someone else.

As far as I am concerned voting buhari for another for years is like treason.

vanbonattel:
You made sense.

You see people like the unfortunate individual who created this thread are unable to decipher that we have a serious problem as a country. He is still caught up in the battle of which tribe is better than the other and who leads in different indices.

We are talking about a country where a greater percentage of it's citizens are destitute. Where many across the nation are dying because they can't afford N5000 hospital bills, young boys are killing there mates for money, youths in their 10s of millions are either unemployed or grossly underemployed and the list of woes go on while the leaders controlling the so called IGR and FAAC are carting away the money for themselves and children.

The dense OP does not know what awaits him when he leaves home today, if he will have an accident because of badly maintained roads in Ogun State or be a victim of armed robbers , kidnappers or ritualists that have taken that route due to hardship in the land or looking for sacrifices for the forth coming elections, or be on the receiving end of a trigger happy SARs officer.

Those are not his considerations. He is more concerned that he is Yoruba and they are doing better than igbos. That's all. as if it is a match between Chelsea and Manchester United.

vanbonattel:
No, let's compare browns

There is no need for all this comparisons. Its too childish abeg.

You getting into this comparison would make you look as stupid as the man who created the thread. Just forget it.

Facts don't lie. The stats are there. Ogun does make more money than all the 5 eastern States.

But what about it? The life of an average Nigerian, be you from Ogun, Kano, Lagos, Enugu or Rivers is the same - A Mess. So of what benefit is the IGR to the people?

@OP if you had a less messed up life than the average Nigerian, you would not have had the mentality to create such a useless thread.

solveprob:
The only person that made sensible comment so far. Nobody asks where such huge funds go to.

You just took those words outta my mouth.

Of course tinubu legally steals over 10% of that amount to keep his political machinery functioning. And the governor knowing this, will certainly help himself very significantly to that tune or more.

Beyond this, what has been declared is significantly less than the actual figures.

If the guys in power in Lagos are kind enough to steal only 10% of the actual amount being generated, Lagos should be in a much more developed state than it is.

Mursz:
This dude will be arrested and court martialed pretty soon.

When a man has nothing to lose, fear runs away.

He could have been as dead as his colleagues, you think he cares?

Vote buying in full gear and in broad day light, yet legal.

Pennywise:
Addressing all Nairaland odehs, this is an undercover operation. He can stroll in in singlet and pant self

You know most Nigerians are plain silly.

Why he wear pam? Why no bullet proof vest? Why e dey take photo? Why this, why DAT?

Wetin consign una?

As if they have been the ones helping the guy to do the good job he's been doing all this while.

We've not had a cop as efficient as this guy for as long as I can remember.

Please allow the guy enjoy his job jare.

Ndi ogbenye na Amosu

omoowo8888:
Boko haram were operating in more than 6 states before Buhari came on board, but now they only operate in 3 states( mostly in Borno).....so, don't tell me about rejuvenated boko haram....they even threatened to attack Lagos when GEJ was in power.

Mention the six states and the last time those locations were attacked.

omoowo8888:
His party was in power when boko haram started....so, his party failed Nigerians, we are not going back to Egypt by the grace of God.

Was that not why they were voted out? Sai barbarians said we had a new sheriff in town who would lead from the front and crush BHT in 3 months. Its been 3 years plus and what do we have? A Rejuvenated boko haram, whose aim is to first of all decimate the NA, before they start taking over territories again. Yet you still have the temerity to mention PDP.

You and your likes should bury your heads in shame.

And if you claim PDP rule can be compared to the biblical Egypt where the Israelites where enslaved, then be sure that we are presently under Babylonian captivity under Nebuchadnezzar or the Nazi concentration camps under Hitler. Ask the Israelites which one they prefered.

baliyubla:
If the service chiefs are not changed after this meeting, then that man is Jubrin. EOD.

Don't give yourself unnecessary stress. Nobody will be changed.

Buhari no fit.

Firefire:
Useless meeting of rogues

As in useless raised to the power of infinity.

Hopeless set of people. Hopeless president.

zeezzy:
Book haram has just killed almost 50 soldiers and Amnesty whatever is releasing this?They are nothing but book haram sympathizers.This is the time to deal with BH without sympathy,like never before.
Releasing this is like,don't sympathize the the Nigeria Army,they are rapist.Send your children, brothers,family members to the war.Let them get killed and let the pple they are protecting turn back and call them rapist........Sick Amnesty international

This is all you can say after watching the videos ba?

You need help.

TONYE001:
Even if at the end of the day, the head should take the blame, I must say that your submission is very correct and valid. Because of some cheap political gains, people jump the hierarchies to heap the blame on the president who may not be aware of the minute-to-minute events at the fronts.

We have a sad situation in the country today. In the face of all these killings, there's an APC-PDP war going on. When one thing happens, the opposition uses it to score points (as the APC did in the last administration). They no longer care to pretend they have the interest of the populace at heart. It's all for their greedy gains and guess what? An average Nigerian youth who should be bothered about his future has allowed himself to be used as a tool in this shameful act.

I'm still patiently waiting for the time our senses would be restored.

A serious minded CEO identifies recruitment errors and continues to rejig his team until he gets competent people that can deliver on the job.

The problem us that buhari has continued to work with recruitment errors all through his 3+ years of being the president and has refused to do a thing about it.

You keep hearing of meetings with service chiefs and nothing but more deaths come out if it.

How will one not blame buhari for it?

Xda59:
In that case Buhari should just be sworn in for a second term let us save the money budgeted for the election because 99.9% of the north is SAI BABA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you say so. I'm north from the north so I can't tell. But if that's the situation, then unfortunately buhari wins it.

Pidginwhisper:
You're a brainless buffoon. What has what he said got to do with him being Igbo. You guys engaging in ethic bigotry are just dimwitted idiots who feels every truthful opinions back up with actual facts being put to you has to be from a particular tribe. Is your father,son,sibling or friend of your is the Military? I guess not. I had colleagues,friends among the casualties of the last killing and I myself could be among those to be deploy to the Northeast anytime from now after being redeployed earlier this yr,Do i have any choice? No! I knew what i signed for, Do i know if I'd be alive to tell the tales tomorrow, No, as am not even sure about tmorrow But you idiots like you who can't stand a crack from a Knockout will be @ the comfort of your home typing nonsense. Idiot

May the good lord protect you as you do this work.

I want to ask: is a soldier permitted to leave the army at will?

Stalwert:
Its that simple, they want to be rehired then why do we have an army

Our army is certainly not doing a good enough job, that's the problem.

Just listen to those boys who made that video that has gone viral. The moral level is too low. I dare to say that if they suffer such attack again, a lot of them may end up throwing in the towel. What will be the fate of those in Bornu state!

We need help. Even if the government don't want this particular guys, they could engage other mercenaries. But continuing like this is definitely a no no.

I don't know how many core easterners have commented thus far. But note this: even if all the S.E governors come out and openly declare support for Buhari, they will only help to increase his vote in that region to max 20%.

Illiteracy in the east is not too high, as well as sheepish followership. So all of you hoping that buhari will get anything from the SE, you are on a long thing. SE/ SS is on lockdown.

Having said that, the battle for Atiku should be focused in the north, thats the region that will make the winner.

tuniski:
Hehehehehe delusion! Oh I thought Pdp had zero supporters in Buhari's north.

Exactly my thoughts as well.

How come PDP had as much as 500k members? So how many were they?

Imbeciles everywhere.

MajorJeffery:
Sadly, that can't happen without severe consequences. Enlisting in the military is like signing a suicide note, no retreat and no surrender until the contract ends. Problem with Nigeria military is too much politics and corruption. I remember working with some of them on few occasions and how they were novices to some of the gadgets my men and I had. Truth is that they were good but only lacked proper training and gadgets to be gallant. I weep for my home country Nigeria.

So a soldier cannot resign?

Anyone willing to bet? Ayogu Eze cannot win his polling station. I am not talking about ward or LGA, ordinary polling station.

Gburu just de waste our money dey campaign. Without a single poster, he will defeat ayogu Eze 99:1.

FarahAideed:
It's sad that you had to die for such a useless commander in chief ...May God give your young family fortitude it shall be well ... I remember when Buhari won and we were both happy thinking better days had come for both civilians and troopers but we were so so wrong... Your passing on pain me ooooo

Is the guy really dead?

Did that guy in the video just say they killed 200 and something soldiers in one week?

GlorifiedTunde:
Didn't you hear the soldier clearly stating that the FG continues to release money buy it's not being properly used?

Buhari should better wake up and overhaul the military, starting by dismissing and investigating all service chiefs angry angry

Buhari cannot wake up. The man was already tired in his 40s, making idiagbon the real head of government at the time. How do you expect him to be awake in his late 70s, how? People get weaker as they age, they don't get stronger.

If you want to see gross incompetence, just wait for another 4years of Buhari

mimimiles93:
https://qz.com/africa/553028/nigeria-will-arrest-its-ex-security-chief-for-2-billion-arms-fraud-while-boko-haram-ran-riot/

Rubbish. The entire money dasuki was alleged to have shared is still much below 100b yet they claim he stole $2b. For the last three years, this admin is yet to make publics arms they have bought. Who bought the arms the military has been fighting with all these years.

The soldiers are complaining their weaponry is low, and you are still calling Jonathan.

mimimiles93:
Jona and his gang stole the money meant for buying weapons to fight these Boko boys

You must seriously suck for making that statement.

Where did you get your info from? You just open your mouth and spill trash.
