Ubenedictus:
the last time i heard such a delay was in benin city when ekpu was arch bishop i think that on was less that 5yrs but 19 and 15yrs is very long and maybe even discouraging esp when these issues are usually caused by just one bad letter! Anyway i thank God with them and hail their perseverance, e no easy at all, may God grant them many useful yrs in his service

amen bro

amen ooo

To God be the glory

The divine Mercy Sunday, April 3, will continue to stand tall in the annals of Nsukka
diocese as Rev. Lambert Ejionueme and Rev. Michael Nwabueze who had been
ordained Deacons for 19 and 15 years respectively were ordained Priests by the
Catholic Bishop of Nsukka diocese, Most Rev. Godfrey Onah at the St. Theresa's
Cathedral, Nsukka.
Although the ordination took place on Divine Mercy Sunday which perhaps made it
impossible for many catholic faithful across the diocese to attend, it recorded an
overwhelming attendance as the Cathedral premises was flooded by people and
vehicles to the extent of causing traffic along Enugu road.
In his homily at the ordination mass, Bishop Onah remarked that God, through these
people's ordination, wants us to learn that God's ways are not our ways and God's time
is the best, adding that whatever happened today is an act of God's love first of all, to
the Church in Nsukka diocese, then to the Bishop and then to the Priests of Nsukka
diocese and also to these candidates and finally to the entire people of God. He said
that, rather than look for whom to congratulate, we should thank God today for
remembering us after such a long time in the lives of our brothers whom he had wanted
to be part of his project.
To those who may want to mistake the two candidates for the ordination as “hardened
criminals” who just received executive pardon from the church and therefore were
ordained, the Bishop explained that when a person is ordained a Deacon, and along the
line, the person is found unworthy of being ordained a priest, the Church demands that
such a person, with the consent of the pope, be dismissed, but in the case of these
two candidates, they were asked to wait; not dismissed.
He attributed the cause of the Deacons delay to the Church, saying “before you would
want to install the new Bishop as a big man and pass your judgment on the former
Bishop, it has nothing to do with Bishops - it is has to do with the way the Church does
her things because, had it been the Bishop who asked them to wait dismissed them,
they wouldn't be here today.
Lambert and Michael, if you have any idea on why you were asked to wait, it is no
longer relevant. What is relevant today is that Christ came back on the 8th day
because of two of you. Your classmates had received this power long ago and you
were not there and he has come for you…God's ways are not our ways, there is no
need looking for Culprits and Heroes”, he said.
The Fr. Bishop enjoined the candidates for the ordination not to be disturbed by those
who may want to malign them and attribute any action they take to the reason why
they were asked to wait, noting that their position from the human point of view is not
enviable because some of those they may want to correct, as well as, some of those
congratulating them today will turn around to malign them and be the very first to say
it would have been better they were not ordained Priests. “But that shouldn't worry you,
concentrate on him on the cross - it is his judgment that you should be afraid of,” he
advised.
The Chief Shepherd urged the Priests of the Diocese to remain united with the Church
as that is the only way they can retain their powers. According to him, “we are earthen
vessels bearing precious gifts. Christ trusts us and commissions us in spite of
ourselves but for you to be effective, you have to be as he is, for you to be effective,
you have to be united with the Father; you have to be united with Christ in his Church.”
He, however, expressed dissatisfaction with how some of the Priests deviate from the
Church's teaching, preferring to do things their own way rather than the Church's way,
adding that when any priest, through his disobedience or any conduct cuts the bond
that ties him to his Bishop and the church, all his powers would be gone, “because,
very soon some of us when we get those powers, we begin to exercise them as if they
were our own and people will begin to worship us and we bask in the fame of that self
worship.
“I am not God: God can read your intentions; I can only judge your actions. If that
action or those actions are not in keeping with the actions of people commissioned and
sent by the Church (I am not God.) God may forgive you but I will do what the Church
asks me to do” he submitted.
While urging the lay faithful to always pray for the Priests and advise them whenever
they go wrong rather than criticizing them, the Bishop condemned the spate of
kidnapping in the country, especially in Nsukka warning the youths who engage in this
act to desist from it. He charged Nsukka people to wake up to the threat by disclosing
the identity, activities and whereabouts of the perpetrators to help fish them out.
In a chat with one of the newest Priests, Fr. Lambert Ejionueme said that in spite of
those 19 long years as a Deacon, he was confident that one day he will be ordained a
Priest, denying ever having the thought of backing out of the Catholic Church or being
dismissed from the journey to the Priesthood. He advised anybody who might face
such fate to always have faith in God as that is one of the things that kept him going in
those 19 years.
In a similar account, Fr. Michael Nwabueze said it was the grace of God that kept him
going in those 15 long years, adding that he was optimistic that one day his priestly
ordination will come to pass but even at that, he was determined to serve God as a
Deacon for the rest of his life if it be the will of God. He expressed optimism that
nobody will suffer their kind of fate again in the Diocese, however, if it happens to
anybody, the person should exercise patience and see it as the will of God because
“my guiding principle is that nothing can happen to anybody without being known to
God. Only God can permit that to happen, but I don't pray for that to happen again.”

Bro.... Let not deceive ourselves, we wont have a world class league in the country in a decade if we are developing at this pace. Though I must confess LMC has done well considering the rot left by the predecessors but this is the fourth season of LMC in administration, the pace of development should be much faster than this.


Nothing much has improved this season when compared to the last. Facilities remain the same or even worse than before. Attendance hasn't really grown, Rangers has seen massive increase in attendance when playing at night while Shooting Stars attendance has dropped drastically. About 15 teams cant still generate 1000 fans on matchdays.


Bro, the world isn't stagnant, we need to keep moving as fast as we can. We can change the tide of the NPFL in just 6 months. Our economy is shrinking, we need to revive it.

yeah u are right but not in a decade's time. The league improve this season in the area of sponsorship cos LMC has made it know that 6 new sponsors will be named during the season.
Shooting stars attendance reduced this season because of sentiments on the part of the club management. Other venues has improved attendance compare to last season.
To believe that there is improvement in naija plz like this page on facebook. League management company.

[size=28pt]warri wolve playing in the east In enugu, port harcourt, uyo etc.. picture.. empty stadium.

bro please LMC is using football to unite the country don't use your lies to disunite the nation. When nassarawa utd came (a non eastern team) to Enugu was the stadium not filled? Ok to prove it https://www.nairaland.com/3064089/rangers-int-2-vs-nasarawa. If you want to see a rangers eastern empty Derby i will show it to you

Yeah you are right but going by the performance of the LMC in the couple of seasons and now i believe that in no distant time the Nigerian entertainment industry won't be able to match the followership, sponsorship and all the matmattaz. Just relax

If the scripts given to his son says he should insult and slap his father, will he do it?

If I were Enugu rangers official, with the full house recorded at night against Nasarawa and heartland i would just make sure rangers plays most of his home matches at night even without supersport coverage but make adequate enlightenment to the fans about violence so that their daring team wont suffer cos of violent and make sure there is alot of security both on and off the pitch.
With this crowd they can make up to 100m on gate fees only and they can easily sell the club to the people and coperate bodies.

ALAYORMII:
This is surprisingly impressive


We are coming up.


About my comment on the other Giwa FC. thread


I take it back



Am sorry if I have offended anybody by my statement

accepted. Remember i challenged u on that Giwa thread?

Temptee101:
Its so funny you call that growth. I won't give you audience again, not again until you check up the meaning of the word "growing" in the dictionary

ok if its not growth. From my understanding of 'growth' lets compare nigeria league of 2005 season to 2016.
Price money
2005 winner got 3m with no other pay. 2015 winner got 30m with over 50m incentives.
Apperance fee
2005 non, 2015 15m each clubs
Tv coverage
2005 non, 2015 yes supersport
Stadium attraction
2005 very bad, 2015 perfect (every body can testify to that)
Salary structure
2005 minimum amount per player 15k , 2015 per player over 150k
Tell me is that not growth?

Temptee101:
This is exactly why Nigeria as a country can never move forward. Nigerian football is a total mess just like every other thing in Nigeria. A league where the referees can be beaten up right in front of security operatives at will, a league where a single person not up to 20years can interrupt a match without interference, a league at hardly records an away win, a league where players are signed by a mere telephone conversation no paper work whatsoever, a league where a goat runs into the field during match, a league where a club owner beats up players from the opponent side, a league where players are owed 2years salaries, league run by politicians etc... I can go on and on. How do you expect sane people to waste their time on a league as this?

tell us the match where the refree was beaten. Ifeanyiubah arased ebele obi and Ifeanyiubah was penalised (which Means there is sanity in the league) to confirm it http://dailypost.ng/2016/04/01/lmc-slam-10-match-ban-on-chief-ifeanyi-ubah/. About players been owed please name the clubs with fact. About document of contract ask the players themselves and you will know who is at fault. To make you understand players like victor ezeji, fredick oboamate, mfon Udoh just to name a few never complained instead they blame their fellow players. Why? Oga ask us questions about the league that you don't understand with a free mind and you will get a convincing answer instead of saying this trash.

ALAYORMII:
How many teams win their away matches in the league?



How many times dem don beat referee for the league?


Una go come online come dey form
ITK


Ogbeni fuc..k off

since you know the answer to your questions i will answer the ones that i know then you will correct me with the ones that i don't know. This season pillars lost at home to enyimba 1-2, 3sc lost at home to warri wolves 1-2, Sunshine 1-2 kano pillars, Giwa 0-1 mfm i beg the list is endless.
Now your second question, I don't know of any but since you also watch maybe you can tell us the refree that has been beaten this season

Temptee101:
Who dey watch naija football. Am not that stupid. Its just as epileptic as every other thing in this country; be it power, welfare, education, roads, etc. The entire NPFL should be expelled

ignorance is bad! What you don't know u can't know. No one is forcing you to follow nigeria league. Just know that the rate at which the league is growing it will be more popular than the Nigerian music Industry. You may disagree, but if you were old enough in the 80s and 90s no one wanted to hear nigeria songs from djs in the clubs to radio and television but now the reverse is the case. So no worry u go come here come dey say shooting stars for live and even lie that you have been following the club since when you were a baby.

Fabrolistic:
wicked boy. Later una go dey criticize herdsmen, when you are no different either.

Just take look at how you brutally murdered someone's child.
Jungle justice of highest order.

nairalanders una no go kill me with laugh... Lol... I no do am anything na. Why him go dey talk anyhow about watin him no know. Sha the question hard? Ok help me ask am this simply one. Tell us 10 clubs nickname

groundnutoil:
Enyimba 4 life which club u d support sef

The blood is BLUEEEEEEE since 99

groundnutoil:
no mind dm na u get time d answer to dia ignorance.i have tried but d forever remain mumus

i tire ooooo

redvektor:
thanks bro do i have to pay any fee to reg?

yeah with CAC i think about 70k should do, while nff will require some basic things to run a club like home ground, sponsor, management structure and other charges.

redvektor:
gud morning bros with ur high level of understanding of the nigeria premier league i fink i should ask dis how can i register a team in the nigeria league what do i need to present to the board to be a registed team either in the 3division or first?

thanks for asking this question. The First thing is if you are not buying any existing club then the First thing is to register with CAC as a non profit organisation (meet your lawyer or chartered accountant) for CAC then go to nff office to register your club in the state fa affiliated to the nff.

ucheHapers:
Bros u get hot temper o....anyway na true u talk

my bro i no get Hot temper ooooo. E dey pain me say me wey don put my sweat, money passion for nigeria league since 90s somebody wey never know any stadium for nigeria league talkless of going to watch league matches go come dey talk rubbish about the league. I don't know anything about europe league but even with the hype the European league have their are still some flop so why can't we respect our own? Afterall no body has forced anyone to watch the league

Mekurexx:
Ehyah!. So how would they replace them now? The league has begun already

it Means 3 teams will now be relegated as against 4, every teams that have collected points from Giwa FC and scored against Giwa FC will lose it. So instead of the league to have 20 teams format it will be 19 teams

MilesLamar:
Na wa o e far jo

yeah even if e far that will discorage the team from misbehaving.

yinkus204:
And they want us to watch 9ja league abi

no body is forcing you to watch the league. What you see in nigeria league has happened and will continue to happen in europe. example of teams that have been ban in europe is real madrid ban from copa del real. Imagine if nigeria club was ban from the league for fielding unregistered player you would have said said Rubbish about nigeria league but what will you say about spanish league as per this real madrid case? Does it Mean the spanish fa don't have record of their players? Plz be objective when u criticize the league.
Note no one is forcing you to watch the league

MilesLamar:
Why didn't they move their venue to Lafia or fct?? Why Ilorin Na wa o

The Rules says when a team is pushed away from his home ground the club is taken to any approved stadium in the geo political zone. Ilorin is in the same political zone with (Giwa FC) Jos.

nymphomaniac:
Can anything good come out of the Nigerian League? Happy weekend all Gunners.

tell us what u know about the Nigerian league. To accuse naija league u most know things about the league just as you know about ur "glorified 'premier league. If you can name 10 nigeria league coaches this season, 10 stadia use this season, 20 players in the league then you are fit to insult the league but if you can't just SHUT UP and play with your toys.

Daily novena prayer. Day 21

Today, the 21st day of May, we're praying for Empredboy.

O God, infinite beauty. Wretched as we are, we approach in humility your throne, with thanksgiving and petition. Thanksgiving for the numerous mercies received from you, and petition for the many needs that weigh heavily on us. Look kindly upon our prayers, especially that of Empredboy who we pray for today and of mine(you may add yours) through the merits of the passion of your son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Pray for us dearest mother Mary, as we offer you this ten roses of hail Mary, with eyes filled with hope and filial love. Amen.

10 Hail Marys.

Psalm 138
I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; before the angels I will sing your praise.
I will bow down toward your holy temple and will praise your name for your unfailing love and your faithfulness,for you have so exalted your solemn decree that it surpasses your fame.
When I called, you answered me; you greatly emboldened me.
May all the kings of the earth praise you, Lord,when they hear what you have decreed.
May they sing of the ways of the Lord, for the glory of the Lord is great.
Though the Lord is exalted, he looks kindly on the lowly; though lofty, he sees them from afar.
Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life.
You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand you save me.
The Lord will vindicate me; your love, Lord, endures forever—
do not abandon the works of your hands.


Special Psalm: Psalm 121

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

amen thanks sir
