Fresh Plot To Kill Amaechi, Others Exposed By Assembly Speaker

The crisis rocking Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) assumed a new dimension as the House of Assembly Speaker – Hon. Otelemaba Dan Amachree yesterday raised the alarm over an alleged plot to assassinate Governor Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi and other officials.
He did not reveal the identities of those behind the plot.
In an open letter to President Goodluck Jonathan, the Speaker said the plan includes the withdrawal of security personnel attached to the governor, the House, ministries and local government councils.
The Speaker said the plot was hatched at “nocturnal meetings held in a neighboring state and Abuja”.
The Speaker traced the current atmosphere of uncertainty in the state to the Abuja High Court judgement of April 15 which upturned the election of the pro-Amaechi state Executive Committee of the PDP, led by Chief G. U. Ake.
He alleged that “a test run” of the plot to expose the officers to the assassin’s bullet “has been executed, with the withdrawal of police from the Okirika Local Government Council.”
According to him, the situation is made worse by an alleged plan to free 18 notable robbery and kidnap kingpins from detention.
The detainees, he said, would be freed “to carry out this planned mayhem on the government officials, innocent citizens and residents of the state”.

Amachree wrote: “Mr. President Sir, we had on 30 April, 2013 alerted the people of the wanton cunning collapse of security apparatus in the state, intended to orchestrate breakdown of law and order, with the aim of bolstering a State of Emergency, by a group of persons …
“On 3 May, 2013, first stage of their plan had commenced with the sealing off and besieging of the Obio/Akpor Local Government council secretariat and the clampdown on the offices of the council by the Commissioner of Police, Rivers State, Mr. Mbu Joseph Mbu through the instrumentality of the Divisional Police Officer, Rumuokoro Police Station, without any valid instrument of law and without any security breach or semblance of same.
“On 6 May, 2013, the Rivers State House of Assembly complex, which is directly adjacent to the Police Headquarters on Moscow Road, witnessed a violent and disruptive takeover by 300 hoodlums under the watchful eyes of the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Mbu Joseph Mbu.
“Your Excellency Sir, we fear for the survival of our democratic structures and the freedom to carry out our legitimate legislative duties have been greatly hindered and interrupted.
“We make bold to say that we now live in uncertain times; security of lives and properties can no longer be guaranteed in Rivers State as a result of these chronicled events in a state that has just regained its peaceful status from the recent past from being the hotbed of cultism and kidnapping.
“Silence over this planned and calculated destabilization of security apparatus in Rivers State is an ‘evil wind’ that will blow no one no good and is capable of contributing to fostering anarchy on the Nigeria Stateline, especially when those charged with upholding the law, ignore and conspire to undermine it, unmindful of the implications.
“Consequently sir, we are left with no other option but to restate our avowed resolve to call for the redeployment of the Commissioner of Police Mr. Mbu Joseph Mbu.
“We equally call on Mr. President to intervene in the ongoing imbroglio that is about destroying the very fabrics that hold the society (our state) together.”

Supporting Jonathan In 2011 Was A Stupid Mistake That Mustn’t Be Repeated – Northern Elders

Professor Ango Abdullahi has emphatically declared that voting for President Goodluck Jonathan in 2011 was a political blunder that must not be repeated by the North in 2015.
The former Vice-Chancellor of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria made his stance known on Tuesday in Maiduguri when prominent northern elders under the aegis of the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), visited Borno State over the recent Baga military/insurgents clash.
Prof. Abdullahi, who who led a delegation of Northern elders to the state said their forum would soon drag President Goodluck Jonathan before the International Court of Justice over the recent killings in Baga in which the death of 185 civilians were blamed on Nigerian troops in the Multinational Joint Task Force in Baga Town.
Speaking on behalf of the forum’s leader, Alhaji Maitama Sule who could not make the trip, Prof. Abdullahi warned that “the north must not repeat the stupid mistake they made in 2011 by voting President Jonathan against their own interest.”
“The north has serious challenges ahead of it, and this may be what will determine the stake of the north, particularly in the political year nearer to us – the 2015. And we in the forum believe that any discussion that will not lead us in bringing power to the north in 2015 is not of interest for us. We will not be wasting our time on anything other than recouping what we have thrown away in 2015. It was sad that northerners threw away what is correctly their own.
“We know where the lapses are, and we are going to tackle you the governors on that. We know that what happened to us was a connivance which can be squarely put on the tables of the governors of the northern states,” he said,
Going down memory lane on his time as one of the 10 Nigerians that started the PDP but had to leave when the party began to derail some ten years ago, the bespectacled don said: “I was a founding member of the PDP before I left; and I can tell you convincingly that we are sure of victory because we have the population, we have the delegates and everything that will ensure that the right of the north is respected in an arrangement that was very clear.

“I was part of those that agreed that the presidency be zoned to the south; and I was part of those who determined where it should start. And that was part of my crime for which I kept on asking God for forgiveness and apology for the people of the north. That was how we allowed Obasanjo, who came and decided to deal with us; and he dealt with us very well. For us to get our right turn back, it is going to take a huge effort, which remains the challenge before us and all the state governors,” he added.
He further noted that the northern leaders have not decided on which party or candidate to support for 2015 election.
“The NEF at the moment has no party; the only candidate we have are the northern people and the only party for now are the northern states. Everybody should forget his party and join us in this struggle. Once we all sit down and make a pronouncement that this is who is going to represent us as the president of this country – so be it. We have the numbers behind us and politics is about numbers. We have the delegates – though the PDP are very good at stealing votes,” he said.
“We have over the years learnt our lessons from other regions of this country; the South West and South-South have succeeded in getting the president and have sealed up their area now; you can’t reach there without their consent. So why can’t we do the same here.”
On the Baga killings, the renowned agronomist said his Forum had commissioned a consortium of legal experts to visit the town and get first hand information that would enable them file a water-tight legal case against President Jonathan at the Hague.
“We had wanted to go to Baga to see things by our self but due to some circumstances beyond us, we are now sending a team of lawyers who are to prepare a case for us to file at the International Court of Justice,” he said.
Governor Kashim Shettima, who could not hide his appreciation and showered praises on the elders for the visit, assured them of his unalloyed support on the northern agenda, even as he noted that the region is still a force to reckon with in terms of land mass, human, and even natural resources.

Family › Are You Ready For Kids? by ekeroyal(op): 5:25pm On May 13, 2013

Are you a newly married couple? Or you just want a baby?

Here is a 'think twice' therapy

A simple tests to determine your preparedness for
children: MESS TEST:
Smear peanut butter on the sofa and curtains. Now
rub your hands in the cat's litter box, then on the
walls. Cover the stains with a coating of crayon. Place
a fish stick behind the couch and leave it there all
summer. TOY TEST:
Obtain a 55-gallon box of Legos (you may substitute
roofing tacks or broken bottles). Have a friend
spread them all over the house. Put on a blindfold.
Try to walk to the bathroom or kitchen. Do not shout
expletives as this could wake a sleeping child. GROCERY STORE TEST:
Borrow one or two small animals (goats are best)
and take them with you to the grocery store. Keep
them in sight and pay for anything they eat or
damage. DRESSING TEST:
Obtain one unhappy, live octopus. Wake it up early
and try to stuff it into a small net bag. Don't forget the
mittens. FEEDING TEST:
Obtain a large plastic jug. Fill halfway with milk.
Suspend the jug from the ceiling and start the jug
swinging. Try to insert spoonfuls of applesauce into
the mouth of the jug while pretending to be an
airplane. Once you've succeeded, dump the contents of the jug on the floor. NIGHT TEST:
Fill a small cloth bag with 10 pounds of sand. Soak it
thoroughly in water. At 8 p.m. begin to waltz and
hum with the bag. At 9 p.m., lay down your bag and
set your alarm for 10 p.m. Get up, pick up your bag,
waltz and sing every song you have ever heard until 1 a.m. Repeat between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m. Set alarm for
5 a.m. Get up and make breakfast. Keep this up for
three years. Remain cheerful. PHYSICAL TEST:
Obtain a large beanbag chair and attach it to your
midsection. Leave it there for nine months, then
remove 10% of the beans. FISCAL TEST:
Go to the nearest drug store. Set your wallet on the
counter. Leave it there. Now proceed to the nearest
grocery store and arrange for your paycheck to be
directly deposited into their account. FINAL ASSIGNMENT:
Find a couple who already has a small child. Lecture
them on how they can improve on both their
disciplinary practices and their exercise of patience.
Feel confident that you have all the answers. Take
note of their expressions. Now run -- fast.

And to all who are shouting 'I want a baby' and the likes. You think it's fun? Go ahead, I can assure of one thing, the cuteness of the baby is directly proportional to the stress therein or is it inversely proportional? Anyway, whatever, all am saying is, having babies or a baby could be fun but taking care definitely isn't. If you doubt ask you parents.

Christianity Etc › Every Pastor Who Collects Tithes Is A Thief by ekeroyal(op): 3:48pm On May 05, 2013

That scripture says: “‘Bring all the tithes into the
storehouse, that there may be food in my
house, and try me now in this,’ says the LORD
of hosts, ‘If I will not open for you the
windows of heaven and pour out for you such
blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it.’” (Malachi 3:10). This scripture is drummed repeatedly into
Christians on Sundays. However, the only time
Jesus mentioned tithing in scripture, he
pointed out that it was not a weighty matter of
the law. (Matthew 23:23). Hebrews says people
only receive tithes “according to the law.” (Hebrews 7:5). It then insists tithing (and
everything else under the law) has been
annulled: “The former regulation is set aside
because it was weak and useless.” (Hebrews
7:18-19). Nevertheless, mercenary pastors
continue to insist on the payment of tithes. Latter-day Pharisees Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for keeping part
instead of the whole law. (Matthew 23:23).
That is what tithe-collecting pastors do today.
If we insist our congregants must pay tithes,
we must also insist that they keep the rest of
the law. James says: “Whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is
guilty of all.” (James 2:10). Therefore, if we
insist on tithing, we should also refrain from
eating pork. We should stone adulterers,
execute homosexuals, kill Sabbath violators
and restore blood-sacrifices. Tithe-collecting pastors counter this by
maintaining the payment of tithes pre-dated
the law. Here Abraham is cited as the cardinal
example of someone who paid tithes before
the promulgation of the Law of Moses, as did
Jacob, his grandson. However, such arguments are disingenuous. Before the law, tithing was at best an example
but not a commandment. Moreover, pastors fail
to mention that Abraham only tithed once in
his lifetime. When he did, he did not even tithe
his own money: he tithed the spoils of war. He
gave ten percent of the plunder he took when he rescued Lot to Melchisedec, king of Salem.
But then he did not even keep the rest but
returned it (all ninety percent) to the king of
Sodom. For his part, Jacob also tithed only once. He did
this in a “let’s make a deal” arrangement he
offered to God: “Jacob made a vow, saying, ‘If
God will be with me, and keep me in this way
that I am going, and give me bread to eat and
clothing to put on, so that I come back to my father’s house in peace, then the LORD shall be
my God. And this stone which I have set as a
pillar shall be God’s house, and of all that you
give me I will surely give a tenth to
you.’” (Genesis 28:20-22). This kind of deal
about accepting God only under certain self- serving conditions should certainly not be a
term of reference for any serious believer. Lies upon lies The first lie pastors tell Christians is what some
have referred to as “the eleventh
commandment:” “Thou shalt pay thy tithes to
thy local church.” But the bible says no such
thing. The storehouse of Malachi was not a
church. It was a place where food was kept. Pastors hide from church-members the fact
that money was not acceptable as tithe. The
tithe was a tenth of the seed and fruit of the
land and of the animals which ate of the land.
(Leviticus 27:30-32). That is why God says:
“Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be FOOD in my house.” (Malachi
3:10). He does not say “that there may be
MONEY in my house.” The food was used to
feed the Levites, the poor, widows, orphans
and strangers. Pastors also conveniently fail to teach the
biblical tithe. The principles of tithing were not
laid down by Malachi. They were laid down by
Moses. The study of Moses’ guidelines quickly
reveals that the biblical tithe has no application
whatsoever to Christians and is mischievously violated by tithe-collecting pastors today. According to the Law of Moses, the tithe was
divided into three allocations. The first year, it
was given to the Levite. The second year, it was
given to widows, orphans and the poor. The
third year, it was eaten in the company of the
faithful before the Lord as thanksgiving for his faithfulness. (Deuteronomy 14:22-28). In the
seventh year, there was no planting and no
reaping and therefore no tithing. So the next time your pastor asks you to pay
tithe, ask him about the seventh-year reprieve.
Also ask him if you can give your tithe to the
orphanage, or bring it as food items to be
eaten in church. Believe me; he will not agree
with you because it is your money he is after. Inapplicability of tithes Tithing was only applicable to Jews and to the
land of Israel. When large populations of Jews
lived in Babylon, Ammon, Moab, Egypt, and
Syria, these lands became tithe-able lands.
However, tithes were not acceptable from
strictly Gentile lands. So you need to ask your pastor how come he is collecting tithes in
Nigeria. Servants or slaves who worked on the land did
not tithe because the land did not belong to
them. Since only agricultural and animal
resources were included, a fisherman gave no
tithe of his fisheries. Neither did a miner or a
carpenter pay tithes, nor anyone from the various professional occupations. So if you are
not a farmer or a keeper of livestock, tell your
419 pastor tithing is biblically inapplicable to
you. Moreover, the only people authorised to
receive tithes were the Levites. (Hebrews 7:5).
So if your Pastor is a “tithe-collector,” ask him if
he happens to be a Jew. Remind him that, even
though a Jew, Jesus could not receive the tithe
because he was not from the tribe of Levi but from that of Judah. The trick, of course, is for pastors today to
claim we are “Levites.” If your pastor is one
such dissembler, ask him if he lives as a Levite.
Remind him that Levites had no land and did
not have private property. Ask him also how
he knows he is from the tribe of Levi, which happens to be one of the lost tribes of Israel.
Point out to him that even Jewish rabbis don’t
claim to be Levites today because all Jewish
genealogical records were lost with the
destruction of the Temple in AD 70, ensuring
that it is no longer possible to ascertain the true identity of Levites. Therefore, if Jews no longer tithe because the
Levites are a lost tribe, how can Christian
pastors collect tithes when we are not even
Jewish, how much more Levites? If Jewish
rabbis, whose terms of reference remain the
Old Testament no longer collect tithes, then pastors who insist Christians are under a New
Testament have no business doing so. The conclusion then is inescapable. Every
pastor who collects tithes is nothing but “a
thief and a robber.” (John 10:1).

Shine your eyes and stop being deceived. God won't forgive you for being stupid after this uplifting sermon.

A Letter from your mama...
Dear Son:
I'm writing this letter slow because I know you can't
read fast. We don't live where we did when you left
home. Your dad read in the newspaper that most
accidents happen within 20 miles from your home, so we moved. I won't be able to send you the
address because the last North Kumasi family that
lived here took the house numbers when they
moved so that they wouldn't have to change their
address. This place is really nice. It even has a
washing machine. I'm not sure it works so well though: last week I put a load in and pulled the chain
and haven't seen them since. The weather isn't bad
here. It only rained twice last week; the first time for
three days and the second time for four days. About
that coat you wanted me to send you, your Uncle
Stanley said it would be to heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on, so we cut them off and put them
in the pockets. John locked his keys in the car
yesterday. We were really worried because it took
him two hours to get me and your father out. Your
sister had a baby this morning; but I haven't found
out what it is yet so I don't know if you're an aunt or an uncle. The baby looks just like your brother....
Uncle Tom fell in a whiskey vat last week. Some men
tried to pull him out, but he fought them off playfully
and drowned. We had him cremated and he burned
for three days. Three of your friends went off a
bridge in a pickup truck. D1ck was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. Your other
two friends were in back.
They drowned because they couldn't get the tailgate
down. There isn't much more news at this time.
Nothing much has happened. Love, Mom P.S. I was going to send you some money but the
envelope was already sealed. -Your mama (mama BG)

On the first day God created the cow. God said, “You must go to the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer I will give you a life span of sixty years.” The cow said, “That’s a kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years.
Let me have twenty years and I’ll give back the other forty.” And God agreed. On the second day, God created the dog. God said, “Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. I will give you a life span of twenty years.” The dog said, “That’s too long to be barking. Give me ten years and I’ll give back the other ten.” So God agreed (sigh). On the third day God created the monkey. God said, “Entertain people, do monkey tricks, make them laugh. I’ll give you a twenty year lifespan.” The monkey said, “How boring, monkey tricks for twenty years? I don’t think so. Dog gave you back ten, so that’s what I’ll do too, okay?” And God agreed again. On the fourth day God created man. God said, “Eat, sleep, play. Do nothing, just enjoy, enjoy. I’ll give you twenty
years.” Man said, “What? Only twenty years? No way! Tell you what, I’ll take my twenty,
and the forty cow gave back, and the
ten dog gave back and the ten monkey
gave back. That makes eighty, okay?” “Okay,” said God. “You’ve got a deal.” So this is why for the first twenty years we eat, sleep, play, enjoy, and do nothing; for the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family; then for next ten years we do monkey
tricks to entertain our grandchildren; and for the last ten years we sit in front of the house and bark at everybody.

Am not very good at writing or observing, but I have tried to look beyond the fun of the blunder and see if we can really learn from it. I have itemized a few points we can consider together, am open to constructive criticism and correction as well.

1. Lack of Good English & Grammar Skills
As I listened to the interview severally, I was ashamed that a man of his age in addition to his office (don’t know his rank), is lacking in the basics of English language. Besides, he lacks grammatical know-how to be a government official. I wonder if he ever attended secondary school. No wonder Nigerians seeking admissions for tertiary education abroad are asked to write IELTS, TOEFL when some countries like Zambia, India, Pakistan, just to name a few are allowed to apply without any such thing. This also points to the fact that our educational system is in total decay. It’s either something is done now or our children will really find it difficult to compete with their mates from other parts of the world.

2. The height of corruption
If such a man could be employed and sent to represent his office on a TV station that could be viewed worldwide, then our corruption level is never going down anytime soon. The right person is never given the job, because of corruption.

3. Computer illiteracy
I don’t know exactly how many Nigerians are computer literate but the fact is, only a very few percentage of Nigerians are computer literate. I mean those who understand the basics of computing, the internet and how to perform simple operations with the help of a computer. Am sure some so called graduates of Nigerian Universities don’t even know what a website is, many others who may claim to know will always look for who’ll lead them to check their mails.

4. The reason many are unemployed
Experts say for one to be employed, he needs to be employable. Many Nigerians are not employable that’s one reason they can’t be employed. I sincerely agree that the government isn’t doing enough to create jobs and job opportunities, but the question is how many job interviews have you attended? Why did you not get the job? You need to prepare yourself for the task ahead if you must get something doing. Think out of the box and find the solution to a lingering problem. Be employable!

5. Criticizing other is always fun
I guess you all will agree with me on this one except you’re at the receiving end of it. While criticism is good the question is, if you were the man in question are you sure you wouldn’t have done worse? While we continue to criticize others, put yourself in their shoes and deep down inside of you ask yourself “Am I really better than this person?”

6. Lack of sincerity and transparency
When we don’t know it, we should Endeavour to be sincere, it saves lots of headache. Using a lie to cover up ignorance sometimes may save us but it’s only temporal. Try to do things in such a way that you don’t start thinking about how to cover up for your earlier mess. It takes more energy and mental exercise to tell lies than to say the truth. Putting so much unnecessary strain on your brain could lead to psychiatric problems.

So while, you’re having fun, briefly ponder over the above and let’s see how much we can contribute to the growth of our great country. Let’s see if you and I can really do the simple things in a better way to improve our immediate surroundings.
