congratz @eazymoh!
where they upto 100 names on the HOR list u saw ?or wat numeric range were on the list?

Thanks but I haven't done the so called documentation as well.
the names I saw won't be up to 30. and I don't think any of them attended the interview.

gali2014:
can they still bring anoda list from d committee

I don't know, why not ask ur HOR member?

gali2014:
DO U V IDEA IF THEY WILL STIL RELEASE NAME

Nobody is releasing any list publicaly.
If you are lucky to have your contact on the list they'd contact you directly. Otherwise you have to go (or send someone) to check your name on the list.
They'd allow you check.

selebobo10:
Is this ur info authentic and true??

lol! Better believe it!
I held the list in hands and was asked to look for my name when I told her a HOR member sent me to do the documentation. However my name wasn't on the house committee list and she told me the rest were put on hold.
As I said earlier unless they decide to get on with preparing and issuing the APL of those who documented earlier, you are in on a long wait because this list came out on Monday and there are people from many states probably from the HOR committee members' states.

I was at FCSC on Tuesday, the secretary in my commissioner's office blatantly told me that documentation for those interviewed has been put on hold. But they have a fresh list from a National Assembly Committee and they only entertain documentation of those candidates.
So don't hold your breath for APL anytime soon, unless they decide to issue them in batches. Because I was told to come back for my documentation next week!

This is very possible.

There are so many benefits especially if you're based in that city .....


Speak Hausa to an Hausa and he/she will surely be happy with you and sell things very cheap for you even dash you things join

As an Igbo chic, speak Igbo to an Igbo guy who's based in the North or elsewhere then you don enter one chance be that....he will cut your throat with price

Speak Yoruba to a Yoruba person , the gist will take a new turn with plenty more gist to follow yet you will still buy at the actual price. No reduction even with all the gist and time

#MyLittleFindings

Wow that's an eye opener.
I never knew how other tribes treat people that can speak their language, but as an Hausa man, I concur with what you said.
When I was in the south vendors would just package whatever they are selling and give us just for hearing us talking in Hausa.

bolinjkezzy:
I so much agree with your general blessings but your exclusively reserved blessing is a no no
1.God loves everybody, he created us right? then he has no reason to hate his creations
2.explain to me how dying a Muslim is a blessing? being a Muslim is a just you born to a Muslim family, by that you have a higher chance of dying a Muslim
3.I can't comment on that...cause I believe you can't sin god you only sin your fellow humans
4.Being a guidance to others is a just a natural thing to some and some its their work(guidance and counseling is a course in some university remember) how is that a blessing?
5.I don't believe in the after life
NOTE....am an ex Muslim but certainly not an atheist

Well my post is only meant to correct the OP flawed insinuation that Islam/Muslims have such world views as Christians.
Those blessings I listed as exclusive reserve for believers they are as simply believed by Muslims.
All vanity is useless if you don't use it to make paradise.
And if you paid attention when you were a Muslim you must have come across verses in the Quran where Allah declared that he does not love those who disbelieve and that he loves those who believe are pure and they seek forgiveness.
Basically God loves all His creations, but when they disobey he hates them. At the end even punishes them.
You don't have to believe what I have listed as blessings, but this is what Muslims believe. As I mentioned earlier, this thread is claiming to buttress what Muslims and Christians alike believe in terms of those blessings.
Good luck with your faith) or lack thereof) you are fully responsible for your actions.

bolinjkezzy:
list 5 types of blessing exclusively reserve for believes and 5 for all irrespective of believes....let's start from there

OK
General blessings
1. Wealth
2. Health
3. Knowledge
4. offsprings
5. leadership/power
Blessings Only meant for believers
1. Being loved by God
2. Dying a Muslim
3. Being forgiven
4. Being a source of guidance to the right path for others
5. Admittance to paradise

Wrong
All those points are applicable only to Christianity but not Islam.
In Islam there two types of blessings;
one that God can give to anyone irrespective of their believes, and blessings exclusively reserved for those who believe.
All world blessings in terms of wealth, good health, knowledge power and whatever can be gifted to even the worst unbelievers.
The oxygen everyone breathes alone would be denied to nonbelievers if not for the infinite mercy of the creator.
However the blessing reserved for true believers who did righteous deeds and which is the most important blessing, is the reward they get in after life.
Every temporary blessing will end, and it's even very short and small.You can't live more than 200yeaes and even if you are Bill Gates when you die that's the end of that enjoyment.

alBHAGDADI:
Wow!

I feel honoured to be called a crusader. It must mean that my work against Islam on nairaland is really bearing fruits.

As for your talk of me not attending to certain topics, note that I can't be everywhere. I only do the best I can, but certainly I can't let an Islamic deception walk pass freely. Never



No, prophets were sent to the children of Israel ONLY. They were the only ones that knew the true God. Other nations were pagans and under the full control of Satan.


Jesus' statement of being sent to the lost sheep of Israel is something you have to examine carefully otherwise you will continue to believe it to mean what you thinking does.

He was sent to the Israelites who were the only ones on earth with a relationship with God and also were expecting his coming. It won't have made sense if he had travelled down to Egypt of Malaysia to preach to people who knew nothing about his coming nor God. It was after his death and resurrection that he assigned his disciples to go and preach to the rest of the world by using his death and resurrection as evidence. If he came to earth for the Israelites alone, he won't have made the below statements.


Mathew 28:19

Therefore go and make disciples of all NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

Mathew 16:15

And he said unto them, Go ye into all the WORLD, and preach the gospel to EVERY CREATURE.

Lies!

Abraham and his people worshipped Yahweh and not in any Kaaba or mecca. The word God gave him was not corrupted cos he passed it on to Isaac his son who in turn passed it to Jacob whom God himself named ISRAEL. All the children of Israel have been the ones producing prophets who were sent to them alone. Never did they make mention of Kaaba. They never worshipped there.

We all know Islam is a religion that aims to insult the Living God. In this case, it insults God by calling Him a forgetful Being for not telling the Israelites about the Kaaba. But God cannot be mocked. If none of the prophets of the Bible ever talked about the Kaaba, then it means it was never God's plan and has nothing to do with Him. That's why it took a non-israelite to proclaim that the Kaaba is of God. That alone proves that it is a lie.

The place that God cherished is the Mount where Abraham wanted to sacrifice Isaac. That same Mount is where Solomon built God's temple. Guess what? The liar, killer and their that destroys has built a pagan shrine on it called Al aqsa mosque. That is the spirit Islam operates with. It lies and steals what doesn't belong to it. But it's only for a while.


Islam hates Apostle Paul cos he judged Islam even before Mohammad's fore fathers were born. Islam will do anything to discredit Paul, but the truth will always win.

Liar!

Can you mention one of those he sent to different people in different corners of the globe in those days? You can't cos they never existed. Israel was the only nation that knew God. Others were under Satan's control. It was through Jesus Christ that salvation started spreading to the rest of the world when he sent his disciples.


It is highly important that we have references linking Abraham to Kaaba otherwise the talk of him building it wont be different from the lie that it is. If nothing in the bible or old texts ever mentioned he stayed in mecca or built the Kaaba, then it is silly to believe such.

If there is no proof, then it means the Islamic faith is based on falsehood or uncertainties.


Abraham did existed and the proof lies in the children of Israel who are his offspring

So much hatred for Paul just cos he words are so powerful that it exposed the coming deception of Mohammad's Islam centuries before he was born.
.It is only normal to Greenwich power.

Chai you really have time on hands!
Anyway calling you a Christian crusader isn't a compliment, calling you Shekau or the Albhagdadi (as you chose) could have been more charitable.
Crusaders were known to have destroyed many cities Jerusalem inclusive killing the inhabitants, men, women children and even infants. In some cases roasting their flesh and feasting like beasts. And they were on orders from the pope.
................
The rest of your argument I don't even know what to tell you.
I tell you a point based on reference from the Quran when I mentioned Ibrahim (AS) built Ka'aba you said I was lying.
I mentioned Jesus said he was sent only to Israelites you said I was lying even though it's in the Bible.
I never said God FORGOT to mention Makkah to Jesus and Moses, I simply said He just decided not mention it and no one can question God.
In the Quran Allah said there are many prophets he sent to a people of different places at different times.
I can't see why God would ignore the whole world population and focus on only Israelites, while he let Satan be incharge of the rest of the world as pagans. Islam has made it clear there are no people in history that God did not send a messenger to deliver His message and that message is simply worship the one true God alone and never associate a partner to Him, for that God is a jealous God! And do good to each other.
This is the right path, and this is Islam.
Take it or leave it.
Good night.

Chosen59:
If Jesus was sent to the lost sheep of Israel,.though not true as he later commanded his disciples to preach to all nations, why were prophets and Israelites before Jesus not going to Mecca?

God told Moses and he declared it to the Israelites that a prophet was coming in Deuteronomy 18:18:

"I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him".

Even though the Muslims interpret it to mean Muhammad, the truth is Muhammad was not a brother of the Jews whom Moses spoke to. The word "brethren" is the plural of "brother". The brother of the Jews must be a Jew. A brother is another male child from the same.mother. The Arabs and the Jews are not from the same mother, therefore Muhammad could not be a brother to the Jews.

Lol! The same argument you are using to discredit the foretold coming of Prophet Muhammad in the Bible is the same used to discredit the coming of Jesus and majority of the Jews then (and now) still don't consider Jesus the true Messiah. So why don't you worry about that.
Jews accepted Moses and rejected Jesus
Christians accepted Moses and Jesus but rejected Muhammad
Muslims accepted Moses, Jesus and Muhammad.
As the final prophet sent to the whole world to correct the misguidance and ignorance of mankind till the end of the world.
Whoever wishes among you shall believe, Indeed there is a day we will all be held responsible for our actions.
May the Almighty God in his infinite mercy guide us to the right path.
Peace

tdayof:
Great Wall of China is 8,000km+ and Benin is 16,000km. So it's not 4 times the length of great wall of China.

Am not even understanding from Lagos to Kano is 1000km, how long is perimeter of the whole southern Nigeria?

And the confusion continues....

Your question looks reasonable.

lol the Christian Crusader Albhagdadi is already on the scene to answer a question directed to Muslims.
You never see him on Christian threads looking for answers like that article on FP about old and new covenant.
Anyway OP to answer your question, It is very simple before Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) Prophets were sent to a particular people or community.
So other prophet's that came after Ibrahim (As) but before Muhammad were sent to a particular people Isah (AS) inclusive. That is why he made it cle9ar that he was sent "ONLY to the lost sheep of Israel!"
You don't expect someone that made such a clear declaration to travel to Mecca and preach to pagan Arabs.
Throughout history of religions people corrupt the clear message God sent to mankind through his prophets. This was what happened to Moses people when he traveled and they started worshiping a golden calf. Exactly after Ibrahim and his followers were no more, with people corrupted and abandoned the true religion he put them on in Makkah, and the result was the Ka'aba shrine turning to idol worship and paganism center.
This is also the same situation after Jesus was gone, somebody now came and corrupted his teachings, bringing entirely new ideologies and practices of which Jesus never did/said/commanded and will definitely never approve of!
Due to nature and limitations of that time, different messengers (there are millions of them that God knows them, the people he sent them to and what happened to them) were sent by God to different people in different corners of the globe, they may not necessarily know or mention each other, but the bottom line is the message must be the same if it were truly from the same God! That message is simply to worship the ONE and ONLY through GOD, who creates and sustains everything and everyone.
It's inconsequential whether Jesus or Moses mentioned Abraham's stay in Makkah or whether he built the Ka'aba. As there is hardly any scientific proof Judaism, Christianity or Islam can provide to even prove that Abraham actually existed outside their respective holy books. These are stories one just has to accept based on faith, and if you don't believe them that's your choice.
I'd advice you rather concentrate on the message all of them preached. Aside today's version of Paul's Christianity which blasphemingly elevated Jesus to God/son of God status, basically revolve around the ten commandments.
Nowhere God ever mentioned to Moses or anyone before that he had a begotten son we would later sacrifice to save all the sinners

Zane2point4:
I took my time to look at the pics posted here, they only set of people that never changed both in dress sense and environment is the NORTH, Nothing changed atall.
They aint agents of change, they prefer there primitive selfs.

I knew I will see an ignorant comment like this.
If it isn't broken why fix it?
Northerners had schools, courts with learned judges, dressing and culture. A well established economy built on trade and manufacturing. Goods produced in northern Nigeria were exported to different parts of the world.
In contrast your ancestors were barbecuing each other if any individual strayed out of their village domain. Killing twins and wearing very little to cover up.
So no! the north don't have to change everything to imitate your white masters you so much look up to in every aspect despite what they did to you.
You copy their religion, dressing, food, behavior and then turn around and view anybody who doesn't do same as primitive?
It's pathetic!

Let the defenders of corruption from a particular part of the country come and adopt this looters and claim it's witch-hunt at the same time.

NwaAmaikpe:


This is a disgrace.

I was taught that when you are in Rome, you act like the Romans.

When Sanusi is in Kano, he can dress like a masquerade but he shouldn't dress so barbaric or like a scarecrow when he is with our colonial masters.


He should learn to drop this nonsense regalia for a jean and shirt, or an English suit if he is leaving Nigeria.

When Tony Blair came to Kaduba did he dress like Emir of Zazzau?

Whatsapp is grossly overrated what's there to cost 19bil?
I feel it's just a stunt between those guys to hype their company and themselves.

What do these people really want? Upon all the support PMB is giving to PYO you still have to denigrate the president's ethnic group and his people to pass a point.
If Hausas and Fulanis among which PMB is president their most powerful influential and rallying point had anything against the acting president he (PYO) wouldn't be the acting president today. He'd have been sidelined like Yaraduas did to GEJ and nothing and no one can do anything about it.
Bottom line is among those so called corrupt cabal there are virtually a member from every corner of the country. So blaming it only on Hausas and Fulanis is tantamount to chasing shadows.

senatordave1:
Census figures are manipulated everywhere in the country,i believe we southerners may be more guilty of that.during the 2006 census,my village which has less than 1000 people recorded over 4000 courtesy of my uncle who was incharge due to the belief that higher population begets higher government attention,revenue and patronage and amenities.this inflation is what is only obtainable during elections and with inec registers.a peep at the national voters register between 1979 to 1993 would reveal a lot of discrepancies.i believe that nigeria is less than 100million.
About who is more populous between the north and south,i believe that the north is clearly more populous.they have a higher birth rate due to their religion and lifestyle.the only place we have such birth rates in the south is among the yoruba muslims and the akwa ibomites.the birth rate of ibo women has dropped due,i noticed this during my service in anambra.many households are not more than 6 there.here in crossriver state where i am,i see a lot of northerners around.there are even rivalling the ibos in population of non indigenes.i also observed this in rivers and akwa ibom states.the south has more population density but when compared with the large landmass of the north,the north comes top.in the interim,maybe the united nations should come and conduct our census

Exactly it's the population density versus landmass relationship that people don't seem to understand

joyandfaith:
wrong. Just like saying US should have higher population than China because of land mass. China as well as India has small land mass but larger population than US.

If you don't understand something just ask for explanation.
