atbu1983:
Any form of reduction of corruption either by selective trial,hypocracy, vendetta, witch hunt, politically motivated or personal interest is welcome as long as the person is guilty and judicial process is followed. We should all support any reduction in corruption possible.

Corruption is a greater national problem than any of selective trial,hypocracy, vendetta, witch hunt, politically motivated or personal interest.
Corruption destroy the nation with 170 million people. selective trial,hypocracy, vendetta, witch hunt, politically motivated or personal interest only affect few who are guilty. When you have 100 thieves, it is better to catch 5 thieves even if the remaining 95 go free than allowing the whole 100 thieves to go free.

When people shout about not trying Amaechi , fashola and tinubu as the basis to completely ignore other corrupt people, such call is not for the progress of Nigeria. Such call is not realistic. People making such calls are hypocrite and insincere.

" A leader who destroys those who are devoted to him does not inspire devotion". Buhari knows this. That is why he would not go after Amaechi, fashola or tinubu. That is why the bible told us despite all the attrocities of David, God still called David the man after his own heart. Because david is devoted to him. If God can do that, who is ordinary imperfect human being like Buhari to do otherwise. However should amaechi, fashola etc continue in thier old way, then Buhari can jail them. Saraki deserve to be jailed because he wants to continue in the old ways.

You can only forgive a repentant thief or someone who believe in your course. In the bible, two thieves were lucky to be crucified at the same time with Jesus Christ. Only one of them Identify with righteousness of Jesus Christ. It was only that one that Jesus forgave. Is Jesus christ unjust by doing that? Saraki is an unrepentant thief like the second thief who was crucified with Jesus who refuse to change his path from darkness to light.

We must all support Buhari in the fight against corruption. It is for our own good.


#Buhari_Reduce_Corruption_by_all_Means
I so disagree with u points there, and u are even more wrong with the biblical allusion, sounds like u don't understand d David - God relationship.
D reason there is so much corruption in Nigeria is because politicians know they will get away with it as long as they dance to the tune of the power that be. This kinda mentality is d reason this country will remain under developed

Our mothers are the first person to caress us
once we are, but what if the first touch or
first kiss that a mother gave to his new born
baby is the reason why the baby would have
sickness and pass away? How painful would
it be if the one who gave life to the baby
would also be the reason why the innocent
baby’s life would be in danger?
11-day-Old Innocent Baby Passed Away After
Being Kissed By Her Mom.
Ruth Schofield gave birth to her adorable and
healthy baby girl, but after 11 days, she was
also the reason why her little angel passed
away.
The life of the baby Jennifer was put in
risked when the mother, Ruth had been
constantly kissing her baby on the lips.
Jennifer got a virus from her mother’s lips.
The mother transferred the virus, Herpes
Simplex Virus after kissing the baby on the
lips.
The sad mother said, ‘The day she died it
was a total shock. I just could not believe
it.’It was only afterwards we discovered she
had contracted HSV. Apparently it was in all
her organs – brain, liver, kidneys –
everything. On the last day her tiny body just
shut down.’
The doctors did not know that the baby
already claimed the disease so they weren’t
able to give the baby the treatment that she
needed before she gave her last breath.

FamilyRe: Lessons From My Marriage by folks4luv(f): 1:07pm On Sep 20, 2015
bisifoundation:
I lived a very religious life in campus, and was not in any relationship at all. After school , I met this young handsome guy in 2006. Sincerely, I felt I didn’t not merit him because he is very handsome, while I am on the average beauty wise. The only thing that attracted me to him was the look. He was an hustler and lived a low income life. Throughout our courtship of 18months, He never gave me a dime. I came from a financially buoyant famiy, I therefore saw no need in asking him for anything, rather I was feeding him with three square meal. We got wedded in the year 2007, and I gave him the flower of my womanhood (virginity) but I was not really excited for just no reason.

My husband is a caring man, but nags a lot. He nags about the way I handle bathing soap, the way you arrange plates in kitchen, virtually everything. I most often skip for fear each time he wants to talk because I believe he wants to complain again.

I got a job before he did, but one thing I discover is that my husband spends his money without thinking about tomorrow and always depend on my salary to survive the family. In 2008, I gave birth to a set of triplet, and had to quit work to nurse my angels. He was very supportive then. He provided for all our needs and life was good. In 2012, my husband lost his job, I had to take over the family expenses again. I was running a masters degree program, doing many businesses, and still raising kids. I travelled every week in a bid to keep the family running. Each time, I complain about the stress I was passing through, he tells me I am lazy, that many women do more to sustain their families.

This is 2015, my husband prefers to allow me or my dad to pay the children tuition fee than for him to hustle. I am 100% responsible for the family upkeep. Every biz you introduce to my husband is downgrading to him. I am currently on my PHd degree, I am nursing a set of triplet, and still work hard to survive my family.

It is now that I realize that I married my husband because of his handsomeness, and that he is mentally very shallow. My husband thinks like a child and has virtually no plan for his family.

My simple advice for intending wives is this, looks (handsomeness or beauty) alone is not enough to choose a husband, marry a man that has great vision for his life, not the one that you will keep on dragging up.

Secondly, I believe my husband puts all the family responsibility on me because I was the one feeding him when we were dating. Please, let your guy know from day one that you need to be adored and taken care of like a beautiful flower.

To married men and women there, did you make some mistakes when choosing? Pls share with intending husbands and wives to help them make informed decision.
This is so touching. Permission to share pls?

The guy submitted that form more than 10 years ago, but he is being hounded now that he is in d black book of some people. So what happens if tomorrow he decide to settle with Tinubu and Co?

I don't think the two situations are d same, those Pastors are stealing money outta anyone pocket, I have been in meetings where offerings were raised and I didn't give. My point is, am not saying those men are right, I don't feel they are, but let's take our attention away from them and put it on us
Christianity EtcOn Our Pastors Acquiring Jets by folks4luv(op): 4:06pm On Sep 16, 2015
After reading people's opinions about our Men of God and material possessions, I began to rethink my stand on the issue. Before I continue, I think I should first describe what my stand was. Each time I hear or read a report about Men of God acquiring material possessions, most especially with the bashing they receive from Christians and non Christians alike, I believed they should be left alone to do what seems good to them at that moment, because at the end of the day, they are not accountable to any man, but to God. So as a Christian, I try to pay my tithe and offering and I am always careful not to do it because someone persuade me to, but because it comes from my heart and because I believe God instructed me to, that way I do not get bothered about how the money is spent because it is my duty to pay and the pastor's to use and each person will account for his role. So I think I can say I am quite neutral.
But recently, I began to have a rethink, a rethink because I began to ask questions and thereafter, I started feeling am too passive about this issue, maybe those bashing those Pastors are right, maybe the men most of us so revered are indeed extravagant. Come to think of it, the denomination I grew up in have a university it runs, but I had to stay at home for four years seeking for admission into a government owned University for the obvious reasons. We see the poor in the church, but I felt we are not seeing much succour, mostly all man for himself.
The recent report of Sahara report on Pastor T. B Joshua joining the league of men of God with private jet, followed by another report from the same source about Pastor Adebayo acquiring a new jet brought the questions back to my mind, to worsen my 'case', I read a post by a public activist condemning Pastor Adeboye's move. Though the post raised some salient issues, I considered it rude and filled with hate, perhaps it was this salient points that raised another question in my mind.
One of the points raised is the issue of poverty in the church. But then I asked myself a question, how many people will take the money they have being saving to buy a car to an orphanage to feed those poor kids? I bet you will agree feeding those kids is more important than getting you a car.
I can remember that my small tecno phone cost 14,000 naira, and i was telling a friend some days ago that I am tired of it already, now, I need another android that costs 33,000 or even more, but remember there are poor people around who need that money more than I do, but I don't feel guilty am thinking of buying a phone not giving to the poor, and it will interest you to know that I am not working yet. But this is my question, can I give up my desire to buy a new phone so that someone can eat? Now, I love to get a better phone and I know I need it, but no matter how much I need it, someone needs to eat and cloth, and you will agree that is more important. But the question is, will I be able to give up my desire for a better phone to feed the hungry?
There are many poor people in the church today, but there are many rich people too, when I say rich, I don't mean Dangote type of rich, but I mean rich enough to have surplus, no matter how little, but we know we will rather save up all the money we can lay our hands upon than give someone who can't feed well.
In the old testament, the Priest doesn't give the people what to eat, tithes are paid to the priests and Levites had there share, but the Levites still had to pay tithe to the Priest. The priest and Levites had no inheritance like other tribes, God said He is their inheritance, as a result of this, no matter how much a Levite want to, he can't pursue his ambition like others, he has being totally sold out to God, a priest can't even marry any woman like other men in Israel, he have rules guiding his choice.
Now, should the Pastors render helps to the poor, yes, of course they should, but each man according to proportion of faith he has received.
Check through the law of Moses, you will see the Lord instructed the israelites not to pick their field the second time, any grain that fall belong to the poor and the foreigners, but in our present generation, we don't just go back to pick the second time, we make sure we sweep all, so much that nothing is left for the poor. We spend more than 100k a times on a mobile phone though we know a neighbour that can't afford a small chinko phone.
Either you are a Muslim, a Christian, Traditionalist, or an Atheist, just before you throw the first stone, look around you, how many needs have you met? How many times have you inconvenient yourself so that someone will be better off, can u drive a smaller car though you can afford a bigger one, all so that someone may eat a more decent meal? You may say you aren't rich yet, but the little in your hand can make someone smile. Remember the cliché "don't ask what Nigeria will do for you, rather ask what you can do for Nigeria", my point is, let's stop looking without and look within, let's stop looking up there and start looking down, the fact is those men can never be perfect, we will always disagree with some things they do, but while we disagree, let's be our brother's keeper too.
Am not saying our dear Pastors are right, but if they are wrong, most of us aren't right either. We no holy pass.

CrimeBaby’s Cry Exposes Suspected Kidnappers - The Nation by folks4luv(op):
But for the ceaseless crying of a four-month-
old baby yesterday, three children may have
ended up in a kidnappers’ den.
The cry of the baby, carried by Eno, the
suspected kidnapper, who was accompanied
by a teenager, inside an Iddo, Lagos-bound
Bus Rapid Transport (BRT) vehicle, attracted
other passengers.
With the woman and the teenager, a girl, were
two other children—Happiness Effiong (four)
and her sister, Patience (two). They claimed
that all three were Eno’s children.
Worried by the baby’s cry, other women inside
the bus asked Eno to breastfeed her.
But she refused. She was also unable to pet
the baby to stop crying.
Suspecting her, the passengers were said to
have alerted men of Iddo Police Station,
Railway Terminus, who promptly arrested her
and her accomplice.
At the police station, Eno again refused all
entreaties to breastfeed the baby. Instead, she
brought out a feeding bottle containing an
orange-colour watery substance, which the
baby refused to take.
Eno, who initially told the police that she lives
at Iyana-Oba, Majidun in Ikorodu, later said
she stays at Igando.
Asked for her husband’s phone number, she
claimed she does not know it, adding that she
does not have a phone.
The teenager, who she claimed to be her
sister, was asked to use her own phone to call
any of their family members to confirm Eno’s
statement.
The unsatisfactory response from their
supposed brother, who she called, prompted
the police to detain them.
Although the suspects insisted Eno is the
children’s mother, Happiness denied knowing
either of them.
Happiness said she lives at the Air Force Base,
Ikeja and gave her father’s name as Effiong.
She said they were taken from their home by
the woman.
“That woman is not my mother. My name is
Happiness. This is my sister Patience. My
daddy’s name is Effiong. He is at the Air Force
Base.
“My mother and daddy are in the house. I do
not know her (Eno); she is not my mother.
And I do not know her,” she said while
responding to questions.
Eno again changed her story, saying the
children’s father is one Effiong who works as
a cleaner at the Air Force Base.
She claimed Happiness rejected her because
she was arrested by the Task Force on
Environment few months after she gave birth
to her, adding that the girl doesn’t really know
her.
“They are my children, I am their mother. If
you think I am lying, let us go to the Air Force
Base and meet their father.
“I was arrested by former Lagos State
Governor Babatunde Fashola when she
(Happiness) was like this baby I am carrying
now. Their father signed the paper for Fashola
to take me away.
“It was while I was with Fashola that I gave
birth to this one (Patience) and this one I’m
carrying now is four months old. I have five
children, two with another man and these
three with Effiong,” she claimed.
