Why did he respond immediately the allegation was raised against him then? Try to be objective for a while.
If he didn't respond immediately problem if he did problem. I wonder how you accusing a man of responding too quickly to an allegation against his person is being objective.

The realistic view. cool
Some people can't do without taking hard drugs should we stop teaching against it? Some are kleptomaniacs should we also not bother to talk it? Because my little boy will always want to watch TV 247 I should allow him and not caution him since he will always choose TV over most other things?
If you don't believe in God your view will definitely be different from those that do so why bother? Your realistic view may not be another realistic view.

OLAADEGBU:
can you explain why abstinence is the right thing to do?
Is it realistic because a lot of people are practising it or because you have other reasons for doing so?
Do you want a religious view or social view? They are two different views which clashes at times. So which exactly do you want?

"Is abstinence before marriage a realistic message?" Most people are going to have sex anyway, so why bother even teaching abstinence?

Many in the modern culture have declared that sexual morality is dead, that abstinence isn't realistic, but it is instead old-fashioned and outdated. Is abstinence before marriage even reasonable in today's "hook-up culture"?
Where and where is this message taught?

EXACTLY!

Good works does not save, or keep one saved, but the FAITH one has in the punishment of sin that Jesus took at the cross ON HIS OWN BEHALF. That's the saving faith.

The bible tells us that we are being KEPT by the FAITH we have IN THE SAVING FINISHED WORK OF CHRIST that was done ON OUR BEHALF. And at the same time we are being saved by that faith alone..

Eph 2:8-9:"8 For by grace are ye saved THROUGH FAITH(alone); and that NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD.
9 NOT OF WORKS, lest any man should boast."

1peter 1:4-5;4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
5 WHO ARE KEPT BY THE POWER OF GOF THROUGH FAITH(alone) unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time."
You keep on saying alone. I wish I know what you're really driving at. I was waiting for you to quote the verse that says faith without works is dead.
By the way you saying as long as I have faith and faith alone it's OK I fornicate, steal, and do all sorts of?

What I mean by grace of God is Jesus and his finished work.

Simply put, the grace of God is Jesus PERSONIFIED and the finished work PROVEN.

John 1:14:"14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of GRACE and TRUTH"

Everything about Jesus is GRACE.

I know most people say that grace is an empowerment for right living, and they even go further a times to say that for example, grace for good health is different from grace for exam success. Which I have never seen in my bible, unless you can show me any, if you believe such.

Now, the grace of God is not an empowerment for this and that rather the grace of God is Jesus and his finished work which PRODUCES empowerment for one thing or the other in one's life. When the bible says that we are justified by grace, I don't think that it is saying that it empowers us to live 100% perfectly as God before we can be justified, which is still pointing to works of righteousness.

Rather I believe it is saying that we are justified by what Jesus did on our behalf at the cross, thus; the finished work. We are justified because our whole sins were inputted, judged, convicted and condemned on christ. And by this, our sins are no more inputted on us.

Don't you view it as a crime of double jeopardy for God to input, judge, convict and condemn us for the sins he inputted, judged, convicted and condemned on christ ON OUR BEHALF?
What do you say about Rom 6:1? Are we to abide in sin that grace may abound?
What about Rom 6:23?
If I get you correctly you don't believe our works has any part whatsoever to play in saving Christians and that it's only through faith. Well I don't see how you can claim to have faith and you will not act it.

I go by relying TOTAL 100% grace and relying on 0% law.

Romans 11:6;"6 And if by grace, then is it NO MORE of works: otherwise GRACE IS NO MORE GRACE. But if it be of works, then IS IT NO MORE GRACE: otherwise work is no more work."
Works same as law?

What exactly are you driving at? What do you exactly mean by relying on GRACE and not LAW?

A plaintiff who files a suit during the court’s vacation is expected to file an ex parte motion to prove to the judge that his or her suit is a matter of urgency which its hearing should not be delayed.

So budget padding, intent to defraud Nigeria, conspiracy to commit theft of public funds is not enough to be a matter of urgency but PDP convention is?

Man Utd knew what they were getting involved in when they signed the "Useless one" I maintain my stance, he's here to waste our money and time.

Rashford is the only True No 9 because I see Martial deployed on the wings a lot, so it's not that bad if we get one more.
You contradicting yourself here. In the same sentence you saying mourinho is wasting money then admitting to needing another striker which by the way is nonsense. Calm your tits down bro mourinho wouldn't sign Balloteli unless he needs him

What you don't know is that you have a lot of work to do in schools that pay that big. Just forget about having a social life. Even on holidays you will be asked to report in school

NameChecker:
I am talking from the view of Staff & Income
Government school possess qualified teachers that justifies their high salaries.
An O'level student can teach in a private school because the owner who is seeking
profit will minimize cost
A school that has that kind of structure and pays its teachers peanut is plain wicked or in erecting such beautiful structures to attract parents, they have incurred enormous debt that they are trying to offset. It's not always as it seems until you move close before you really understand what's happening.
And so you know government is still subsidizing education for citizens. The revenue generated by public schools for a term is not even close enough to run the school for a month but how else does a private man run his school when there is no free money?

Waste of time
1. Once you open the app it shows you're online to everyone that views you
2. You won't be able to see others too. You won't know if your messages have been read just like they won't know if theirs have been read too.
3. You won't be able to view other people pictures just as they can't view yours.
So what's the essence?

He has documents, he has submitted them, evidences plus key witness/witnesses nails a case. Especially, if Jibrin's case is hinged on co-conspiracy, where Jibrin gets off on a lighter punishment.

Jibrin as a witness is different from a situation where an outsider is testifying against you.

The same way crime lords are busted, get someone within the family to testify against you. Same reason Saraki and Ekweremadu are very aware of the precarious situation they are in with members of the senate testifying against them.

The courts will decide though, but I would never want to be in such situation.
I will have to go search for those evidences because i gather Jibrin posted some of them online so I can see for myself. The key word is intent here. Intent to defraud the Nigerian community. The case is not about padding of budget or addition of extra projects or inflating cost of projects as submitted by the executive but the intent to divert funds meant for public use. Am sure Jibrin has proof that they were truly padded but the intent to divert funds is the key here. I am afraid it will be difficult without a confession of any sort.

That is why Jibrin is key!

He can prove conspiracy.
How? It will merely be his words against Dogara's. Unless there is a clear video or audio recording implicating Dogara
