It is getting clearer now why many houses in abuja, Lekki, vi and ikoyi are forever empty.

To all of you licking your lips and rubbing your palms in glee as the emir lampoons and lambastes his tribe and kinsmen . . .while we all agree with him, I need to remind you guys that it may be the turn of your region, tribe and/or religion very soon.

Sanusi takes no prisoners when he feels strongly about an issue. This man stood up to gej and refused to resign when requested to. His passport was forcefully taken off him and then he was subsequently suspended.

This is the same man who ridiculed and maligned the whole Yoruba race without mincing words. . .calling them names I'd rather not bother to remember.

Sanusi currently doesn't see eye to eye with Mr president. There are articles and speeches of him telling Mr president and his govt off.

When the emir of kano decides to visit the sins of your best tribe, region and religion I hope you guys would be gracious enough to welcome him, his regalia and everything that comes with it.

In the meantime, oga Sanusi continue firing your people

I stopped reading the moment I saw 10giga watts of electricity.

Dogara cannot unanimously carry out this exercise. His Oga, saraki, the chairman of NASS would have to sign off on it. But we know too well, that saraki is not about to tell us that his court fees are taken care off by the national assembly. Or that he actually signed off and paid for the bullet proof SUV

I refuse to be carried away by this man's rhetorics even though they are right on the money. Having said that, leaders in the north haven't helped the masses. In fact, they have contributed to the abject poverty and ignorance ravishing the land.

A state governor would rather give contracts to build mosques in every local govr rather build classrooms and hospitals. Pathetic!

If all these defections doesn't bring about Igbo presidency come 2019, then all these SE politicians who are defecting should hang their heads in shame.

If I were in the PDP hierachy, this is the time to be transparent, honest and pragmatic. anyone vying for an elective position must go through the process. Play the age card. Sound the loyalty and fair weather trumpets real loud.

Start with chidoka for anambra. See where it takes you.

Buhari should hang his head in shame. He has continually put the cart before the horse. And usual, has continually called on Osinbajo to clear His mess.

You can't accuse people of any offence and then ask them to prove their innocence. It is not done anywhere. He who accuses must prove.

Upnepaa:
Why is Deli Alli not getting the necessary Media hype from the English media


The boy is good abeg...


Barkley and wilshere doesn't muster half of his performance before being hailed to high heaven

is it bcus he is black

I hope you know Barkley is part black. Nigerian to be precise.

Guys, make una read na.

Read the article and ignore the headline.

Cmon

I hope you guys know the court hasn't given judgement yet? It only said it will no longer proceed with further counting.

Buhari don turn monitoring spirit

With the current judgements and the new electronic voting system that has been passed into law, anyone thinking of running for any political office should give it a long and hard thought because E no sure again.

If technology no catch you. Supreme court go catch you.

N/B Na that Abia state governor dem go first remove. The dye is cast

Lmao.
Even me sef dey Shame for her. The look is cringe worthy.

Despite the leaky heavens/skies water levels are still low?

Militants have gone quiet of late so I wonder what the gas constraints are this time.

I honestly do not believe this report. It is either a lie from the lake of abyss or somebody is clueless.

This is nonsense.

These guys should break the monopoly. Strengthen star times by opening/breaking the sports package. In the UK, football and other sports packages are split between Sky, BT and sometimes ITV. This way, no one entity will laud it over the other

Daboomb:
Just listen to yourself....

So, if you worked hard and bought a house(s) (of which there are records everywhere .. revenue, local councils, e.t.c)...... your name being included in the list of House owners is now "lubbish" or a crime?

why are you panicking since you legitimate worked for your money?
Who did you lie to?

Well, "the Guilty are ALWAYS afraid..... even when nothing is chasing them".

I dont give a damn whether they publish my name or not, anyone can come and challenge me.... my source of income is legitimate and provable.
Even Google is enough to help them.
"Criminals and Secrecy, is like 5 & 6"

Your argument falls flat on tbw face of common sense and logic

Some people abhor the frenzy that goes with the public knowing what they own and and what they don't own.

Let me state here and now and if I might add, categorically, that this will be an exercise in futility.

The pettiness of this govt is mind boggling.

So Nigerians who worked hard doing legitimate businesses and bought houses will be lumped in the same rubbish of an exercise all in a bid to fight corruption?

Utter tosh!

Databoy247 your attention is needed abeg.

Good afternoon guys.

This thread had gone quiet.

Guys, I need your assistance. Can anyone please educate me on the process of obtaining a DPR permit. Cost, procedure, duration will be very helpful.

I await your input guys.

At this point, I will strongly suggest that sowore relocate to the US.

Dude is beginning to step on toes of people who'd do anything to shut him up

Interesting exposé.

Lmao@buhari

I would've loved to the see the face of prof Anwuka who represented Mr president as he addressed the audience.

⬆ was why Abraham was chosen. Isaac was also considered based on this. Esau feel afoul of it by marrying Hittites who even his parents knew won't help the cause, hence the way his parents pleaded with Jacob not to follow his brother's footsteps

Sorry, I'm mobile. So I'm unable to highlight and quote texts properly.

I disagree with the text above.
I thought we agreed neither Esau or Jacob knew of the prophecy or God's grand plan.

So how could Esau's wife's tribe be an issue? Or are you suggesting the parents tried to correct/change/thwart Esau's ways? Albeit, not forcefully. When they failed Rebekah turned to Jacob?

I am being pushed to further saying neither of their parents had an inkling God's plan until the prophecy came. But even at that they still weren't exactly sure what was going to happen.

This reportage is all shades of crap. There's nothing here at all. Absolutely nothing.

Their difference is no big deal.

Infact, I believe their difference will accelerate ambode's plan to give Lagos 24hours power supply.

madukovich:
Esau wasn't poor, he even got blessed by his father to the extent that he couldn't be poor, besides he inherited his father's wealth as the first son, such that by the time Jacob was leaving Laban his father in-law, ESAU'S sons were already dukes in their own right.


But the essence of the blessing from Abraham, Isaac and then to Jacob wasn't earthly riches, but YAHWEH building and raising a select group of people, a chosen people, a kingdom of priests. It involved an eternal covenant, a reason why we have Israel today, perpetually through the ages, and Edom (descendants of Esau) disappeared along the line, even if it's in name only.


I'm sure if you'd asked Esau if he preferred the name and fame and wealth of his early days to perpetuation in eternity, he'd prefer the latter, that was the essence of the blessing Esau was willing to kill for when it was denied him.


It just showed a character trait of Jacob that is admirable in him settling his differences with Esau, and definitely couldn't have affected his destiny. YAHWEH had even promised him, after that wrestling with an angel, before he made amends with his brother.

Then I must ask why was Jacob chosen? Why not Esau? Clearly Esau did nothing wrong to be overlooked or for the prophecy to be in favour of Jacob. Could it have been God's grand design? If yes, then there has to be a change in the way preachers malign Esau.

Good! Fine!
We agree that Esau treated his birthright with levity. . . .PORRIDGE!

Esau still went on to become a great man. Up and until Jacob ran away from Laban and begged Esau, Jacob was still struggling to make ends meet. Is it safe to say he would've continued in the same path had he not begged Esau and fought the angel? Both actions/deeds had to be done for him gain some sort of reprieve/salvation?

The prophecy came before both were born. But I'm wondering if anything could've been done to change that prophecy.

Esau was the hard working and morally upright guy. Nevermind he sold himself short for a bowl of porridge. While Jacob was a conniving manipulative guy. And as such suffered most of his life for it.

Surely Surely surely , this was predetermined to happen since time immemorial. But the question remains, assuming Esau was aware of the prophecy, could he have done anything to change the course of it? This also applies to us today? Can the course of a prophecy be thwarted/changed?

There's so much to unravel in this story. I tend to go back to this story quite often to see what new thing I can pick from it.

Having said that, I have heard from a number of preachers who have castigated and maligned Esau for what happened to him.

My question is thus: can prophecy be reversed or changed? Jacob's case was clearly prophetic. But why do some preacher's cast aspersion on Esau?

Some people have said Esau loved blindly. Others said he was too trusting etc etc. But could he have done anything to change the prophecy?

Lmao. This guy is active on twitter.

He no wan hear say you shoot bird, the mama fly

id911:
stop misinforming the public, the Oba of Lagos is not recognized anywhere let alone being a first class king! It is just the name Lagos added to his title that gives him insignificant recognition.

Even in yorubaland when big obas are having meeting he may not be invited, when he is lucky to be invited, he can't open his mouth to talk until he's permitted

Thanks for the clarification.

I thought he was a force to reckon with.

sarrki:
so he's not entitled to talk?

Ambo is doing well

This will be the last this time I will engage you.

For a 'king' he ought to talk less. He should borrow a leaf from a more senior and more recognised royalty, the oni of ife.

This man has spoken about obj, atiku, igbos, ambode, jimi agbaje, PDP, gej. . .

For a so called first class king, this guy talks way too much and dabbles into politics as though it is some sort of domestic affairs
