PoliticsFew Out Of The Many Sins Of Gen Buhari On Nigerians During His Military Regime by Emelcee(op): 7:08am On Aug 06, 2014
I read Buhari’s comment and I almost laughed.
He said ..
”Our country has gone through several rough patches, but never before have I seen a Nigerian President declare war on his own country as we are seeing now.”
Grandpa Buhari, you can lie ooo, do u think that Nigerians have forgotten? What about the wars you declared on innocent Nigerians as a military ruler… Your tolerance for opposition was superb then I assume, so holistic that you jailed so many people without fair trial.As an oligarch and military ruler, you didn’t believe in equality before the law.
Just to mention a few of the things you did that I am sure GEJ hasn’t even scratched the surface…
1. You jailed Lateef Jakande, Jim Nwobodo, Ambrose Ali, Pa Adekunle Ajasin, Chief Ayo Ojewumi on cases that had no foundation… That one is not war on Nigeria and Nigerians right?
2. You protected Awwal Ibrahim, the then Niger State governor, who was arrested in Heathrow Airport in London with 14 million pounds sterling and several millions of Naira and dollars by putting him under house arrest. I wonder why you frown at GEJ for protecting Ijaw?
3. You placed Shehu Kangiwa, Sokoto State Governor who conducted and supervised the famous Bakolori Massacre of poor peasant farmers whose land were appropriated without compensation under house arrest instead of the guillotine like you always do with people that did nothing.
4. Ayo Ojewumi and Prof. Ambrose Alli came out of your prison camps blind as a result of imprisonment on false charges… Even Mandela still had his eyes after decades of imprisonment, what did you inject in their system… Love abi?
5. You publicly executed three innocent Nigerians by enacting an overnight law that made legality illegal for your own good pleasure. Lawal Ojuolape (30), Bernard Ogedengbe (29) and Bartholomew Owoh (26). were killed because you upgraded the law to suit your blood thirst.
6. You jailed Ndukar Irabor and Tunde Thompson of the Guardian on stories that were true under Decree 4. You told Nigerian journalists then that “it did not matter whether the story reported was true or not, if my regime did not like it, the writer would go to jail.”
7. You Jailed Pa Adekunle Ajasin… you might want to tell us why?
8. You created emergency rule just because you wanted to jail Fela Anikulapo -Kuti (Abami Eda) out of your way on trumped up charges. The judge later confessed you ordered him to do so..with an apology to Abami Eda. If Fela were alive today, he will win you in any election with or without rigging, you should bury your head in shame and stop calling yourself “elder statesman” you are nothing near a statesman.. you be “enemy of state”.
9. You publicly said ” I decided to deal with this Fela problem once and for all.” was Fela Kuti the voice of truth and freedom a problem? You were and still a problem.. hundreds of thousands are dead in your name..
10. As a smuggler, you supervised the smuggling of 53 suitcases filled with cash through the MMA against the protests of General Tunde Idiagbon and ironically, Abubakar Atiku, the then Director General of the Customs. Your chief smuggler then was your ADC, Col. Mustapha Jokolo.
11. Buhari, the unholy mallam, you placed President Shagari under house arrest inside a palatial mansion in Ikoyi while you locked up Shagari’s Vice, Alex Ekwueme in Kirikiri Prison… so much for being a true Nigerian with no ethnic inclination… Sir Ahmadu Bello will be very proud of you for upholding the dumb Bottom Dan Fodio estate.
12. Worst of it all, you subverted the will of the people that night in 1983 when you disbanded democracy with force… I’ve heard the lame claim of bloodless coup, but you’ve shed more blood in public view than any ruler Nigeria has seen..more than even the stone-hearted Abacha, you are simply a lying, heartless, northern dictator.

PoliticsLetter From An Angry NGO To All Students, parents As Well As The Government. by Emelcee(op):
Pardon my grammatical error pls.
You should read this if you’re still
schooling. "Perhaps you saw headlines like "FUTA 1st class graduate arrested for defrauding people of up to N5 million" every day. Five boys were involved ithis particular case. Three out of them used to sit next to each other in the lecture hall because they were close friends. The first-class graduate caught was and still is, a brilliant student, a genius in class. I always imagined him working with the oil and gas company. The rest of us had to do with whatever results we could accumulate although we were all striving hard. But hear this, a couple of years on, this incredible brain was rotting in his parent’s home. No job, no source of livelihood. He has to survive. What choice do you leave him?. I am not in any way supporting his misdeeds of duping people by setting up a
website for people to buy a fake scholarship for N2500. But i never knew our nation could go this bad and wrong. The best graduating student in my faculty has no job, scholarship or social support. I can only imagine what is happening to majority of my other colleagues. He is guilty of fraud. But we owe him an apology. We told him to go to
school and succeed. He did that exceptionally well. Now the part of the agreement that is ours to fulfill, we failed him. Not only him, but also many outstanding Nigeria students. Imagine the genius he would have become in a more sane society. Now we’ve lost him.. Same way we lost Shekau, the best project management and logistics brain this nation has ever produced: try abducting and keeping one person hostage undetected for over 100 days to prove what I am saying. My advice is for the Students, youths, unemployed graduates If you have any talent at all, don’t shove it aside because of some-so called "academic commitments". That’s a
gravemistake you should never make in Nigeria. Rap, sing,dance,draw, do your graphic design, write, act, go for shows, continue with your comedy performances. Exploit that talent to the maximum, don’t put all your hope in the degree "they" want to give you. Trust me, your talent is worth a million times more than academics. This is Nigeria. This is what we have become. "The sooner children as well as our parents begin to realize that "A man’s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men" (Proverbs 18:16), the sooner we will all learn to encourage our wards in whatever talent they have been blessed with rather than shove books down their throats and say they must graduate with a first class degree. However, we also got other kind of messages –positive and encouraging young people of Nigeria to take matters in their hands, never give up and become the leaders of tomorrow.Whose side are you on and what kind of necessary changes in the way the Government treats our youths would you suggest?

While everyone was touching the Pastor’s head, shoes and shoulder; this woman, a bishop of same congregation decided to hold the pastor’s priv’ates for healing.

The Pastor asked why she hold his priv’ates and the woman said, “her husband pen1s is not working anymore so she believes when she hold the Pastor’s pen1s, her husband’s would be healed.” Then the pastor shouted, hallelujah somebody. Can you blame the lady, wasn’t she obeying simple instruction?

SportsHilarious Comments Made By The Commentators Of Brazil 1 Germany 7 Match by Emelcee(op): 4:17pm On Jul 09, 2014
The commentators kept me laughing through out the entire match with his
hilarious and wicked comments....just a few I remember though,
1. The Germans don't have d swagger of d Spainards, neither do they have d
understated panache of the Netherlands.. What they do have tho is a cold ruthless efficiency.
2. The Brazilians can't wait to return to the dressing room which will be their
sanctuary for now
3. This is the kind of score line that can make grey hair turn white
4. Felipe Scolari is looking 4 somewhere to hide.
5. Brazil have Neymar. Argentina have Messi. Portugal have Ronaldo. Germany have a team.
6. Brazil used up all its energy singing their national anthem.
7. I have never seen a goal less celebrated in my life.
8. Its 30mins of play, Brazil nil Germany 5, I repeat.
9. I'm absolutely sure that most of the television sets in Brazil would have been switched off by now.
10. If your name begins with a 'K', you are likely to get a goal today.
11. At ''0-7'' the commentator said ''this has simply turned into a training exercise''..
12. Commentator @ 7th GoaL: - “Now Jim I think someone else has Brasil's controller. They'd better hand it back to Scolari before I quit!”
13. "Dante has just collected a yellow card to complete his day".
14. " the referee is considering not giving any extra time, to save Brazil from further humiliation "
15. ''I can't remember the last time the Brazilians had a shot on target " he said
that on the first half.
16. 20mins into the 2nd half, he said "Brazil has not conceded a world cup goal since 39mins ago"
17. "Germany are getting goals and the Brazilians are getting confused."
18. "Can 70,000 fans be silenced?" well they are now, brasil are stunned"
This morning Scolari's wife poked him and said: "wake up it's 8!" he jumped up and shouted, "WHAT!!! ?? THEY SCORED AGAIN?"...nairalanders add what you heard yesterday, dont spoil that yesterday's drama.
Politics15 Cheapest European Cities To Visit july 6, 2014 posted By: Emelcee by Emelcee(op): 11:48am On Jul 06, 2014
Paris, London and Rome are some of the most popular cities visited in Europe, but also happen to be the priciest. There is no need for Nigerians to skip out on a European holiday though. There are alternative cities that present their own signature style of uniqueness without costing a fortune.
The currency used in Europe is the Euro (EUR). As of 22nd May 2014 the exchange rate is 1 EUR = 221.272 NGN
Here is a brief rundown on the 15 cheapest European cities to visit and consider for your next holiday from Nigeria. We measured each by cheap airfares from Lagos and comparison over 50 other European cities, as well as captivating attractions that make these cities tops.

Although most of Germany is pricy, you will be pleased to know that Berlin cuts the cost in half when compared to other German cities.

Jokes EtcSuper Eagles Players Disguised After Their Return From Brazil by Emelcee(op): 12:06pm On Jul 02, 2014
After their return from Brazil World cup, the Super Eagles were so
ashamed of their defeat that they decided to disguise themselves so
as not to be recognized.
Mikel disguised himself as a monk and was walking on the street
when suddenly an old lady walked up to him and said "Mikel how far
na?". Mikel was so surprised that he ran away annoyed that the old
woman could recognize him despite his disguise. Disappointed, he
went home and dressed as a pregnant woman, again he bumped into
the same old lady and she said, "Mikel how far na, see as you just run
the other day". Confused and frustrated Mikel asked "but mama how
do you keep recognizing me despite my disguises"?
The old lady replied: "Hahaha, Mikel na wa for you oh, look me well
na, It's me Yobo".
What do you think of these guys?
PoliticsGovernor God'swill Akpabio Declared Wanted By Olumba Olumba Obu ~ by Emelcee(op): 11:20pm On Jul 01, 2014
LAST Tuesday a suspense filled atmosphere was created at the gate of the Akwa Ibom State Government House when a messenger dressed in a Brotherhood of the Cross and Star all white garment who introduced himself as a prophet of Olumba Olumba Obu stormed the place and asked to see the Governor as he has a message for the State Chief Executive from the sole Spiritual head of the Universe.
The messenger did not disclosed whether it was the Roland Obu faction or the sister to Roland Ibum Olumba Obu faction that sent him on the errand but he acknowledged that the Governor is being wanted by Obu at the headquarters of the Church located along Ambo Way in Calabar, the Cross River State Capital. He is said to have arrived in the early hours of the evening after the close of work. He was dressed in all white and carried a stick painted in the white and green colours as pictured and refused to mention his name when he was accosted by Security men attached to the Wellington Bassey Way end of the Government House. He responded to questions asked him using the Efik/Ibibio Vernacular.
The Prophet when asked what message he has for the Governor said, the sole Spiritual head of the Universe, Olumba Olumba Obu had asked him to inform Governor Godswill Akpabio that he should report immediately to the headquarters of the church for his interest. When he was denied entry by the Security personnel, the Olumba Olumba emissary informed that for the mere fact that he was there at the gate but denied entry that the Governor has already gotten the message. He said the Governor knows what to do and that he should come to Ambo headquarters of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star to answer certain questions.
Suspecting that the unusual visit has a lot to do with the 2015 gubernatorial election in the state, the Olumba Olumba Obu emissary was asked who is behind the message to Akpabio apart from the Ambo headquarters but he declined response. When asked if he knows Bishop Akpan, the emissary retorted that Bishop Akpan is a common name and that there are many people that go by the name. To further press on, he was asked if he knows Bishop Sam Akpan. In his response he said, Bishop Akpan is someone whom he does not know for now and went political in his responses and reaffirmed his earlier position that the Governor Godswill Akpabio knows he is already there.
Sources are however of the opinion that Akpabio may have gone into a pact with OOO and is likely going to renege on that pact and as a result of that Olumba had to send him a reminder. Another source who interacted with our reporter on that matter informed that Akpabio in his quest for power must have patronized the services of the spiritual head and that with the recent, message sent to him and acknowledged that he is aware, chances are that the Governor will visit the Ambo capital seat of the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star sooner than later to sort himself out of whatever agreement he had with Olumba Olumba Obu.
It could be recalled that Governor Akpabio was once described as a very strong and active member of Olumba Olumba Obu only for the Governor to openly identify with the Catholic Church. But however what many are watching to see is the outcome of the emissaries sent to the Governor allegedly from the Brotherhood of the Cross and Star.

Stories For The Heart
A Very Touching Story....
A poor boy was in love with a rich man's daughter….One day the boy proposed to her and the girl said…”Hey! Listen, your monthly salary is my daily hand expenses..How can I be involved with you..?
How could you have thought of that? I can never love you, so forget about me and get engaged to someone else at your level” But somehow the boy could not forget her so easily…..Some time 10 years later they stumbled into each other in a shopping mall.
The lady again said….,”Hey.. ! You! How are you? Now I’m married and do you know how much my husband’s salary is..? $15,700 per month! Can you beat that?
And he is also very smart” The guy’s eyes got wet with tears on hearing those words from the same lady…
A few seconds later, her husband came around but before the lady could say a word her husband seeing the guy, said……“Sir you’re here and you’ve met my wife..”
Then he said to his wife,”This is my boss, I’m also one of those working on his $100 million project! And do you know a fact my dear? My boss loved a lady but he couldn’t win her heart….
That’s why he has remained unmarried since.
How lucky would that lady have been, if she had married this my boss now?
These days, who would love someone that much?"
He said all these to his wife.The lady looked in total shock but couldn’t utter a word….
————— ————— ————— ——-
Life is so short and it’s just like a mirror.
You can only see as much as it reflects. So don’t be too arrogant or proud by looking down on others because of their current situations.
Things get changed with time just like the weather..! Don’t under estimate anyone because everyone has a great future!
Where you have been rejected before, you will be celebrated soon in Jesus name... Goodmorning dear. @emelcee8
