Very sad bro! Thank God you maintained your peace.
What can we do? That's where we found ourselves. Civility is dead in this country especially from the Nigerian Police. The country needs to be reformatted so we can start on a clean slate

Wao! What an interesting move by the CJN, it serves us all well.
By the time those who feels they loves Nigeria more than some tribes will open their eyes, it will be too late for them to rescue themselves.

Great legend then and most valuable player during that tournament.

May his soul rest in peace. Eternal rest grant unto him oh Lord and may perpetual light shine on him - Amen

When will Nigerians in government learn to resign from the position as a show of integrity and disapproval to certain acts of their employer or citizens outcry

Are you saying you've never done something wrong against someone you later regret? You can't forgive Sowore because he once supported bubu, you can't forgive Falana because he was against GEJ, you can't forgive UK because they merged us with unlike minds Haba, take it easy ogbeni

I neither hold any grudge against Sowore nor Falana. My humble wish is a working Nigeria which is good for all of us and Africa in general. This has always been my sincere wish which is possible but some persons or groups don't want it. Our national policy implementations is not encouraging one united Nigeria.

Am only disappointed with the present youths of this country because their future is less than blink. Those at the helm of affairs of this country today have been there once, 30 years or more ago. Even those that fought for our independence did that while they were in their late 20s, their 30s and at most 40s.

Have you asked yourself why the youths have not been able to participate more in the governance of this country. Most unfortunately, the youths have been made redundant, impoverished and misguided into ethnicity warriors by the same people that should guide them aright. Right thinking and united youths can't allow so many happenings that takes place in this country stand an inch in their country.

So it was Theresa May that officiated our wedding shey, try and take away hatred from your heart or else you will never be at peace with anyone....Something of 1914 that all of them in that era arse already underground, all is well.

Maybe you do not know, it was that same mission before 1914 that's being safe guarded and implemented today. My eyes are open and I don't hate humanity but I hate oppression, selfishness and tyranny

UK what? Rubbish!
It's because of their selfish interest that this incompatible marriage is being forced to exist.

All I know, the masses will win at last. Then and after then, everyone that has contributed in one way or the other in supporting and enthroned this junta regime will be treated as an outcast in the new Nigeria

blueAgent:
How does this verse prove that she should be worshipped?
Does this Bible verse luke 1:26-49 make Mary equal with God, hence making her worthy of receiving God's praise?

Who told you that she is being worshipped? Please concern yourself with what profits you and your neighbours to the glory of God. Thanks

Catholic this! Catholic that! Remove Catholic faithfuls from the face of the world and have a perfect world you dream, maybe that'll make you happy. People always attacking what they don't understand.
I blame those Catholics that doesn't understand their faith and live it.
I will leave you with this Scripture passages but first; Do you have original Scripture to read from, secondly; Can you get honest interpretation?
Please Read Gospel of Saint Luke 1 vs 26 - 49. May the Lord blesses you as you read and may the Holy Ghost Minister unto you.
I may not have time for open discussion, thanks.

If you are a Judiciary who have collected bribes and is complicit in the whole matter, there is little you can do.

That is why it seems they have no balls, they have sold their rights completely.

Dear, the whole situation puts us on the crossroad and begging for direction

If I were the Judiciary, I will suspend indefinitely, entertaining any court case involving the DSS. Let them keep their guests forever, and we'll see how it will all play out.
Unfortunately, the Judiciary now seems to be co-arm of the Executive.
It's only the citizens that can salvage this country. As long as the masses keeps folded arms, we can't get a country of our dreams.

purest21:
Until Nigerians quit fighting back from the comfort of their homes behind keypads, the government can never be enlightened that power belongs solely to its citizens. And only then can the masses realize how much power they wield as things play out.

Now take a look at the massive protests going on in South America for over 2 months now. South Americans who happened to find themselves under the same shackles of poor leadership as Africans, but have fiercely refused and rebuked it consistently over the decades.

The recent protests started in their most developed country - Chile since October, over inequality, lack of opportunities and government's inability to distribute wealth and social services. The protest had only began for 1 week, the president already panicked, sacked his ministers, reshuffled cabinets. The citizens demanded a new constitution and his resignation. Out of fear, a committee was immediately set up and they're seriously working on the new constitution to at least get the over 1.8 million people off the streets of the capital who have caused a total city shut down for over 6 weeks. And maybe calm them enough with the new constitution that gives them equal rights to participate in the economy so they might reconsider his resignation. That's a man who's scared cos he has been brought to light on the powers the citizens possess.

Bolivians followed suite in protests just about same time. Why? Because they believed their president rigged the election to re-elect himself. (Does it occur to anyone that these are the same damn things we experience but would just murmur about them over keypads for few days and it slowly dies off) Now the Bolivian President has resigned and fled to Mexico to seek asylum, CHASED OFF BY HIS OWN CITIZENS! And now they're planning on their new election. MASSES = RESULTS

Peruvians and Ecuadorians are also at it. While Peru came out in numbers to support their President in closing down a corrupt Congress, Ecuador citizens came out in numbers to pressure their President over removal of gasoline subsidy. And as expected, they're all getting results and not backing down until all requests are fulfilled.

Moral lesson:
No matter how authoritarian or totalitarian a government thinks it is, fact remains that no government on earth can cope with a total shut down with millions of citizens on the streets making serious demands in one voice.

I share your idea but it can't happen in Nigeria for many reasons;
We are afraid to die but how many can they kill if we all come out in our numbers?
We are in a forced unity, and hence can't unite to fight common enemy, as there will be equal or greater opposition against those fighting for perceived common enemy.
Weapon of poverty also used on the masses that an offer of a plate of pottage will make them forfeit their birthright, and many more

I stopped reading the post immediately I saw the word OSU

From the write up above, if NLNG do not have a facility to deliver LPG to Port Harcourt, Warri and other coastal areas within these axis, then it's something worse than shame to the politicians within these zones.
Need to confirm if such facility is not in Onne, a town of less than two hours sail by vessel from NLNG Bonny terminal.
I have always said it, what the citizens of this country stomach as government policies, can't be taken by other country nationals

freeze001:
There's usually a date on tweets.

Yes, seen already that the tweet came out earlier today. The question we are asking is whether Mr President assented to the bill in London or back home. He is on 2 weeks vacation.

MelesZenawi:
He assented to it in London?

Or his chief of staff did?

This cabals are deadly

The question I have in mind. Maybe he assented to the bill before he travelled to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
The news should state the date of Mr President's assent to the bill, else it will remain in the present tense if posted tomorrow or next year even

Very disappointed on our continuous online presence and rantings (very sorry for the use of that word). The truth is that what we stomach and look the other way in this country, 1/10th of such actions and policies of public officials from other nations will not be taken lightly by citizens of those nation.
We should stop complaining and take real actions against our common enemy. We don't need violence to achieve positive results in governance. There are many examples to learn from.

We need to conduct drug and alcohol test on the person or persons seeing the evil spirits. If the test result is negative, then I can comment on this statement

Rubbish agenda, will not sell. Just tell all those Abuja politicians that we are not interested in that.

Happy birthday cute baby Favour. May you continue to grow in grace and strength to the glory of God

Nigerians are not angry rather, they are happy and comfortable with what they have.
Check nations whose citizens are angry, and you will see what they have done or are currently doing.

Inasmuch as I agree that the northern boarders are not strictly guarded for full compliance against smuggling like the western and eastern ones, the picture posted has been used as at October 2018.
This current boarder closure is not related to the picture above

Please say something else and save us the stress of Ajeokuta. You better keep it offline

Supnaija:
Of course God or whatever name anyone chooses to refer him as definitely exist.
Because the sun rises in the east and sets in the west for the past million years and no one can explain how that ball of fire is the center of our Galaxy.
Natgeo wild reveals creatures that have behavioral patterns that we humans cannot fathom.
Yes there is a great architect of the whole universe. My only problem is that he is not exactly how religion depicts him or her.
It's a confused world down here and nothing is helping us understand him better and how he should be worshipped and he himself is not helping matters by giving us answers.
Sometimes it feels like he is an alien who created the earth and went on to more important matters in another realm.

Thanks so very much, I like this comment and your questions. Especially the fact that there exist an entity, the architect of the universe. Down here, Africa and specifically Nigeria, failure in political developments (bad governance) has made people to fall victim of religious deceit, as many of these religious movements are catching in on this political failures to exploit the people
Religion or mode of worship towards this great architect of the universe is indeed very beneficial to man, and must not be underestimated. Hence, it's necessary and one must use one's head in order not to be manipulated by the several prayer houses we have today.
Being privileged to have studied astronomy (Physics and Astronomy - UNN), let me share a little of our universe; the sun with its planets known as the solar system, is one of many such systems making up our own galaxy - Milky way Galaxy. (Mind you, the sun, which is it's name, is just like one of those stars we see in the night sky. Their small sizes is as result of their very far distance to us. Some of them are by far bigger and hotter than our very sun)
So dear, our universe as a unit comprises of collection of different Galaxies, each moving farther away from the other.
Sorry dear let me stop here. It's a wide field and may not be able to give all.

My summary point is, there is God, the great architect of the universe. How we worship him is now the problem of humanity. Hence, let open our minds and use our heads. Nigerians are being deceived a lot in the name of religion.

aalangel:
You took that Scripture right out of my month...

You are welcome dear. Many do not believe that the words of the Scripture are real and words of wisdom, meant to teach and guide.

Supnaija:
So what you are saying is that. Satan is a creation of God, which means God created Satan gave him freedom of movement to cause disaster and problems in people's lives.
So does that not mean it is God's fault that there is so much trouble in the world? If Satan can simply be vanquished or his freedom restricted.
Please explain I really want to learn

I guess where you are going, maybe as a free thinker. First do you believe there's a God, from whom everything else emanated? This will determine whether we'll go further. Thanks

Supnaija:
So what was Satan looking for in the midst of a holy gathering. I thought God and Satan are enemies.

Or Satan just came uninvited and when the angels saw him they told him welcome to our meeting jare abeg let's play baba ijebu with Job's life.

I don't understand please explain

God did not restrict any of His creatures freedom of movement including Satan. Please read book of Job chapter 2:1ff. You will see the interesting dialogue between God and Satan

Shame be unto the Igbo man that will be used for such unity begging. What an insult of a statement.

Have we forgotten that when the children of God gathered (in the book of Job), that devil also was spotted there.
For those who queries the warning and also surprised that such things as theft could happen inside the church, it's a subtle reminder to be aware of the devil's advocate.

degamemaster:
Pls don't mind the OP, he's just being mischievous. The house is perfectly in good shape and would last as long as other buildings lasts. Just look very closely, you will see that it is triangular in shape hence, has a balanced grip on the ground. Nothing is wrong with unconventional building shapes of foursquares.

I thought as much anyway

Please is this real? Structural and civil engineers should quickly locate that building and assess its stability or otherwise.
Action should be taken immediately.
