The Senate President, David Mark, on Thursday in Abuja appealed to senators to fast for the Super Eagles, if it would ensure their victory over the Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire.
The national team will file out against their Cote d’Ivoire counterparts on Sunday in a quarter-final match of the ongoing 29th Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in South Africa.
Mark said, ``individually, you can fast if you think it will make them to win’’.
According to him, national pride is at stake and therefore, the Super Eagles must play their best to ensure victory.
He told the Deputy Leader of the Senate who, he said, was the contact person between the Senate and the Super Eagles, to inform them that the prayers of all Nigerians were with them.
``We will pray as hard as we can but they must play as hard as they can because our prayers alone cannot score goals,’’ Mark said.
The News Agency of Nigeria recalls that the Super Eagles defeated the Ethiopian national team, Walya Antelopes 2-0 on Tuesday to set the quarter-final game. (NAN)

J12: They have every right and reason to make that decision. OUK should respect himself and resuscitate his dead PPA instead trying to pitch his tent with a party he scorned and abused. Just like tinubu tryin to join the PDP

According to the PDP zonal chairman, they have reason to believe that chief Kalu is a paid agent of presidential aspirant whose mandate is to destabilize the party in the south East zone,

AjanleKoko: Maybe it's time for a regional army structure

thelastPope: I have learnt how to ignore childish and ignorant threads/people like these/you on NL. Threads put together by jobless disgruntled MAULAG sttudents just to feed their boredom. It is a waste of time. Anyone who still thinks the rain is responsible for increased power, with gas plants coming on stream every now and then, is not only ignorant but uninteligent. There is nothing to debate there. It is a fools journey and I aint interested, thank you!

hollandis: OLOSHIIII
SO ANY TOM DICK N HARRY THAT CRITICIZE GOVT WILL BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.....WAS IT NOT THE BASTARD EZEKWESILI THAT DESTROYED D EDUCATION SECTOR

“We urged the Federal Government to call Nasir El-Rufai to order and not to overlook the possibility that his joke was not only contrived but was actually calculated to create an even greater wedge between Christians and Muslims with the attendant consequences.

ABUJA—The Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Wednesday, described recent statement linked to former Federal Capital Territory Minister, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, on Jesus Christ, as not only reckless but also indicative of deep-seated moral bankcruptcy.
El-Rufai had tweeted on January 28, that “if Jesus criticises Jonathan’s government, Maku, Abati or Okupe will say that he slept with Mary Magdalene”.
Addressing newsmen on the issue, CAN warned El-Rufai that “if he persists in such matters and making such divisive commentaries, he must prepare himself for a very forceful and vigorous reaction from the Church and the Christian community in Nigeria”.
Speaking through its General Secretary, Rev. Musa Asake, CAN warned that the “maturity and dignified restraint of the Christian populace, in the face of inflammatory and provocative statements, should not be taken as licence for unbridled assault.
“We urge his religious leaders and political associates to advise him to be far more sobre and circumspect and put a padlock on his mouth before he lights the candle that sets ourcountry on fire.
Mallam El- Rufai
“On our part, we urge the Christian community and our Christian youths to continue to be restrained and always seek peace, love and harmony, in spite of the provocations that they are facing from the likes of Nasir El-Rufai and those he represents.
“We must not allow him to turn Nigeria into a cauldron of fire by his reckless, bigoted and twisted commentaries about our Lord or our faith and we must view him for exactly what he is, a failed, desperate, hate-filled and drowning politician, who is now stoking embers of religious division to create a political base for himself amongst his people.
“Nigeria has no place for a religious bigots who delight in insulting the Christian faith.
“We urged the Federal Government to call Nasir El-Rufai to order and not to overlook the possibility that his joke was not only contrived but was actually calculated to create an even greater wedge between Christians and Muslims with the attendant consequences.
“Had it not been for the maturity, fortitude, patience, decency, forgiving nature and deep sense of restraint that themajority of Christians have in our country, El-Rufai would not have been safe anywhere in Nigeria today after cracking suchan expensive joke.”

He therefore enjoined the former Minister to explain the source of her figures.

J12: Well, if the United States spent hundreds on billions of dollars on their war on terrorism, whats stops Nigeria from spending a paltry 40 million for the same cause?

bubadaniel13: [i][/i]OP get the issue right...Has GEJ joked with Prophet Mohammed (SAW) or Jesus Christ?wake up...

thelastPope: But you cannot say you believe in Jesus Christ and then support words that demean Jesus Christ and the man who said those words.

Wsdm: If a Muslim says the truth they call him boko haram , a Christian says the truth they call him anti Christ, a politician they call him opposition, a former president they call him confused man, another tribe they call him ethnic bigot and now an expert on who's eyes you squandered these unpatriotic money is talking and you think you can cover up as usual. 'Oya' fix a date for an intellectual display if you have any truth.

Bvercially: It doesn't matter who tweeted! He did d RT i do nt care bouh his intentions buh if it were to a Joke on d prophet Mohammed SAWS! Ina na ni lahi wa ina e lai ra ji un(prayer for d Dead) wuld av been d prayer offered for many christains lives

val_dee: You are the one that needs understanding slo/wpoke.

So the people that were killed all over the world made the inocence of muslim movie.
