When people say things like this, they need to be very careful and equally prayerful. I've heard and seen a lot of people (especially during this Buhari campaign) say a lot of nonsense about the end of a man's life. They act like they are God who knows the beginning and the end. Even me when nor too like politics, i shut up for that matter. A strong man can be walking across the street and a car knocks him and he is gone. While the old man people are making jokes about and talking all manner of nonsense, its only God that knows the end of his days. MAKE UNA DEY CAREFUL OH
You are the only person reading death into that post. The guy was clear. The end question was to lose the election at the end of all those travails. Stop being holier than the pope

bro. my reference to probono is in situation of those that are innocent but are incarcerated or killed because they cannot afford lawyers to plead their case.
Oh ok. Human right law firms do that a lot. Some go to the cells to look up such people and negotiate bails for them. Even courts have been known to appoint vounsel in court to take over defence in criminal matters of people not defended.

Continued from https://www.nairaland.com/2134385/whats-advice-mom-detention

I have good news today!! My mom has been released so thank God with me. Just like I narrated the last time about all I knew about the case, I want to let u all know the latest development and full details of what happened. I told you the last time that I only said the least I know and one of you advised me to leave Lagos and go down and see her and also know if there is more to the case.

I travelled home on Wednesday (3 days back) after getting permission from my workplace.

My mom was released on that Wednesday around 6pm one full week from the Wednesday she was arrested. In fact 20 minutes after my younger brother brought her in, I entered the compound. I'm really happy and sad too because of her condition of health, of course you guys will understand me. She looked very horrible, lean, frightened, vulnerable and weak. Dark circles all over her eyes, suddenly she looked older than a 47 years old woman. Well, it's well. I lack words to tell you all about her situation because it brings dark clouds to my heart.

First signs she was exhibiting was over consciousness of her environment, at any door sound or loud voice, she seem to jump out of her skin and terror fills her eyes and she will start shaking, we managed to make her feel at home but it wasn't working, she wasn't able to eat yet. The truth is that my mom has this childish part of her life that still amazes us till now. We, her six children 3 boys and 3 girls all out of university believe that it was her early marriage at 15 that made her that way. She cries if you don't call her on phone for one week and pouts a lot. She is also a very strong mother, I don't know how to make you understand that my parents can never defraud anyone with the kind of hearts they have.

She ate only twice there so she lost all will to eat and till today, she still drinks only malt and water. But she is been taken care of by the family doctor, she will be fine. I have two phases of details to tell you people, 1: how she was released and 2: the full details of the case. Tnx for your patience on this.

THE FULL DETAILS:
I called my dad to narrate exactly what's up because I really don't know everything in details and this is how it happened; for those that knows main market Onitsha, you will understand this, my dad among other traders was among the people that bought over shop allocations then in one of the locations where shops building projects was going on then, a certain politician then, a woman though can't remember her name was involved in the project. They were building those shops and by then everywhere had been bought over even before the completion and all of them has their ownership and validity documents at the LGA. My dad said that the project later entered into political whatever and they halted the project, meanwhile , that was the documents that was used for the collateral. He banks with Union Bank over the years and funny enough, they have issued loans on 3 different occasions to him without collateral based on trust and it was later paid back. So on this issue, the bank contacted these property evaluation office to go and evaluate the property then. This may sound odd and unbelievable but that's the truth. The woman contacted by name "Naomi " (not real name just to call her that )went to our head office in Bright Street where my mom stays and met her on that fateful day and narrated why she came, my mom welcomed and gave a seat. She had to wait for my dad to come so they can both go the property for her job.

My mom said that after some time while they were just talking about business and stuff, she got up to go complaining that she is too busy and the weather was hot, mom urged her to wait but she left and few minutes later she came back and told mom that there is nothing really much on why she came that its just a procedure, that she will just take a picture of our shop and complete her work that its nothing though since they will repay the loan, she brought out her work camera and took snapshots of our shop and then left and that was the last time she came. Forwarded to this year now that the bank came, mom showed me photocopy of the letter she wrote to the bank concerning how she can be able to pay up that money and even the time frame was included, so they can grant her request. She is yet to receive a feedback from the bank before this thing happened.

They asked for collateral this time because of the setback on my parent's business, if you know No. 7 Bright street main market, u will know what happened there few years ago.
I found out as i got home that It was not even the Bank Manager that arrested my mom though I don't know if he has a hand in it from the background.

The bank went to the LGA for confirmation and then went to the property but found it not active and non existing, they summoned Naomi based on her evaluation evidence not been what they see now, she later called my dad to impose accusation on him that the day she came that he shouted her down and asked her to leave and that was the last thing I know my dad will do, my dad became very surprised and asked her if she can recognize him on sight, that was she not the one mom said that took pictures of our shop the day she came, she cut the phone. I heard she told the bank manager to give her few days to sort out the mix up that she wants to go to the LGA to clarify something, I don't know what happened but I think the bank found out what she did and then started having issues with her.

That was how SARS came and took my mom, it was at their office that we found out that her report says that my parents are frauds and she denied been the person that came for the evaluation on that day, she said it was the youth corper that served in her office then that came for it.

But the thing is that my mom heard of her name and knew that it was the same person that came to the shop that day. Well my friends, she was the one that called SARS for my parents, she instructed them to focus on my dad and that the family will hurriedly run around and pay the money. Even the day they came to the house, mom refused to allow them enter the house without a search warrant but they pushed her violently to the ground and one of them twisted her fingers. So concerning the shop I narrated on the other thread, it was an alternative shop of my parents but the bank refused it that it won't fetch that amount.

The actual amount loaned is 2.5 million and the interest is 6 million not 7 , my mistake. That's all. Another thing is that despite the fact that they have mom, they kept looking for my dad everywhere asking us to provide him. They were really hell bent on catching him courtesy the woman's request. She actually used SARS so that they will manipulate the situation so my dad can pay up the money and I don't see how it's her business for the money to be paid. Ok enough here.

HER BAIL:
I don't really understand the type of lawyer they had been using on this case, seems lawyers differ, his own was to file case to Federal court before mom comes out, very sluggish man though young and with family. Wednesday and she was still there, all the people my dad contacted were told by SARS boss that its fraud and they kept stretching the case. So my youngest sister contacted her friend in Abuja to talk to her dad, she mounted pressure on them that Wednesday, later a call came from State CID Awka to SARS that a person with a so so case at their custody should be brought to Awka with the case file that morning. They put my mom in the back of her Hilux and took her to Awka, they met the man and my mom told him everything as it happened, the man was shocked on hearing that she even stayed up to 48 hours in SARS custody not to talk of one full week hmm! He then asked for the complainant to report to Awka, they called her and she said she was at Asaba that she was coming, 3 hours later, she didn't arrive, they called and she said she was almost at Awka. 3.45pm she has not been seen and the man said he won't conclude on any decision until the woman comes, she stopped answering her calls and switched off her phone. Unknown to them, she went straight to SARS office to see her people, they put a call to Awka for my mom to be brought back! Meanwhile, the man in charge has gone out, I don't know what they call that his rank again, weda CPO abi IP whatever.

My mom noticed what was about happening and started begging an officer for his phone to make call, he dialed my sister's number, she already knew the source where the call came from through them. She told her what happened at Awka that they want to take her back to SARS, hmm!! My sis started her lamentation calls again and as God may have it, the man called and told them to wait for him, on arrival, he got to know that the woman never reported and went to SARS office, the man then made called to SARS department and gave some instructions and sent someone with them.

He told mom that she should not panic that whether the complainant surfaces or not, that he will send her home but she still has to make another statement, all these were done and they took mom back to SARS and bailed her with 50k, the woman has long left the office before they got there and nobody has heard from her since then till now. The lawyer asked for 300k to file the case, he was not even aware that my mom has come out, my brother called him that day and he said that all these TO and FRO movement is not yielding anything until he files the case, he was given half of the money so we can gather the rest. But that's for only filing the case fee, I don't understand him and he has not even come to the house to see mom and find out how she got bailed. They said she should report to SARS on Monday for their routine check.

My mom was actually in their cell 2 where other 27 women were, no space on the floor to lie down, she is actually suffering from the daily habit of them shooting young guys dead anyhow after which by midnight, they gather the bodies and go and dispose them, no one can avoid seeing those bodies and even hears shots when they were been killed, it's a small place so everything happens around them there. I even heard they sometimes uses this nylon bags to cover their heads before strangling them with iron chords, she is really more traumatized and frightened by what she had been seeing there than her condition.

She said the place is just like another world. Jungle justice. But all the same, thank God for my mom, she said that her greatest gift of all from God in this case is that her husband was never caught because if he was ever taken there hmm!! Who knows what the turn out of events would have been by now. So that it, I have told them to get another lawyer for this issue.

It's ok if you find these details lies or with some hidden informations, but thats everything there is to it. I understand most of you that called my dad names believing he is not man enough to face it, I agree but let my parents be complete and alive for us. Thanks everyone.

I remember reading this in the earlier post. I remember suggesting that a fundamental human right action should be filed. That is what the lawyer was doing even if he was not being as fast as you would expect.

Now you people should sue the woman and join the police for illegal detention. Your family can make good money on this. Your mum should not have been detained for more than 24 hours. Sue the IPO in hisnpersonal capacity together with the woman u called Naomi and then join the police. When you get a positive judgment you can levy execution on the womans estates and properties even if she continues to run.

Culture › Re: Oba Of Benin Is Alive -traditional Council by hardbody: 7:08pm On Feb 13, 2015
ammanison1:
The Oba of Benin, Oba Erediauwa, has dismissed the rumour that he had passed on.

The speculation on the monarch’s demise had gone viral on the Internet on Friday morning.

The rumour also intensified with the claim that the Oba did not personally receive President Goodluck Jonathan, during his February 4 presidential rally in Benin, the Edo State capital‎.

But the Benin Traditional Council, told our correspondent on Friday evening that it was a mere speculation, which had been on for over six months and lacked truth.

The Secretary to the council, Mr. Frank Irabor, explained that it was the responsibility of the council to issue a formal statement, if such a development did occur.

He said, “They have been peddling that rumour for more than a year now, because the Oba has not been coming out.

“If there is anything like that, there is usually a statement from the palace or from the Benin Traditional Council.”

Although the spokesperson did not specify whether or not the Oba was hale and hearty, he said that inability of the President Jonathan to see the monarch, when he visited the palace, did not give credence to his rumoured death.

“The fact that he has not been coming out, even when the President came last week, does not mean that there is anything like that‎.”

“I don’t bother about rumours. I believe in getting information from the authentic source. For more than six months, they have been carrying the rumour,” he added.

Politics › Re: Buhari’s Bribe Tears Northern Pastors Apart by hardbody: 7:04pm On Feb 13, 2015
KEVIND:
Actually, we were told that Gen. Buhari wanted to have an audience with us regarding his presidential aspiration. The idea was that it was going to be an interactive session. I believe this is a sponsored endorsement. Our patrons and leaders are too noble to bring us to this embarrassing situation this way.  There was no meeting or agreement that suggests that this organisation or all leaders of Christians in the North should come and endorse Gen. Buhari or any other presidential candidate…
 

The altar was desecrated yesterday as some clergymen from the North tricked their unsuspecting colleagues into a meeting in Abuja to endorse All Progressives Congress, APC presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari for the March 28 presidential election.
Signs that all was not well in the camp of the organisers started emerging at the venue of the meeting when some of the invited pastors complained that they were not told that the forum was called to endorse Buhari and his running mate, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.
A group, which identified itself as Northern Christian Leaders Eagle-Eye Forum, spearheaded the meeting at the International Conference Centre, Abuja, where Buhari and Osinbajo were in attendance.
Some of the Christian leaders who openly protested the action of the patrons of the group, alleged that they were deceived into attending the meeting.
They alleged that the organisers told them that the meeting was put in place to enable the clergymen take up Buhari on some topical issues but lamented that it “turned out to be total declaration of support for Buhari.”
While some of the aggrieved pastors stormed out of the meeting, others stayed till the end.
They were however shocked when contrary to the organisers’ promise to give each participant either N50,000 or N100,000 (depending on the locations from whence they came), the funds released by a governor who bankrolled the meeting, was between N3,000 and N5,000. Some of the pastors said that the money given to them was not bribe but welfare package and insisted on collecting it.
It was learnt that the governor, whose identity was not disclosed, bankrolled the meeting with N500million.
In his address at the occasion with the theme: “Declaring Total Support for General Muhammadu Buhari,” the chairman of the Forum, Pastor Habu Aminchi, promised that his group would not only work for Buhari but would deliver 85 percent Christian votes in the North for the APC candidate.
However, some members of the group staged a walkout of the hall when Pastor Aminchi declared in the course of his speech that the Forum has endorsed Buhari for the presidential election.
The angry pastors said that they were neither involved in any meeting where such a decision was reached, nor were they informed about such a position to suggest endorsement of any presidential candidate or party in the forthcoming general elections.

Meeting initiated by Ango Abdullahi
Pastor Aminchi stated that the group used to work for the ruling People’s Democratic Party, PDP, but that “what we are passing through today as a country made us to change our mind.”
According to him, the idea to convene the meeting came to him after Chairman of Northern Elders’ Forum, NEF, Prof. Ango Abdullahi, called him on phone and invited him for a chat.
Pastor Aminchi said that after his meeting with Prof. Abdullahi, he became convinced about the credibility of Buhari’s candidature against all the propaganda, an indication that all the negative media reports about him were all lies.
He described those who do not like the personality of Buhari as “attackers of destiny” who do not want him to succeed in his presidential bid to salvage the country from corruption, insecurity and declining economy.
Aminchi said he had since realised that all the propaganda against Buhari were false and were designed to smear his public image and make him an enemy of Christians in order to divide the political parties and the country along religious lines.
According to Pastor Aminchi, voting for Buhari means voting for Prof. Osibanjo, who is also a pastor. Buhari, according to him, is capable of restoring the country’s lost glory if he wins and reintroducing discipline and result-oriented anti-corruption campaign in the country, just like he did when he served as head of state.

The meeting is a fraud
However, several members of the Christian body alleged that Gen. Buhari and his party, APC, are sponsoring division among Christian communities in the North.
In an interview with Nigerian Pilot, Pastor Bitrus Yerima, the national president of Gospel Advancement Leadership Initiative and a member the Northern Christian Leaders Eagle-eyes Forum, said that most of the pastors, including himself, who attended the “endorsement meeting” had no prior knowledge of what was to happen at the event.
He said: “Actually, we were told that Gen. Buhari wanted to have an audience with us regarding his presidential aspiration. The idea was that it was going to be an interactive session. I believe this is a sponsored endorsement. Our patrons and leaders are too noble to bring us to this embarrassing situation this way.
“There was no meeting or agreement that suggests that this organisation or all leaders of Christians in the North should come and endorse Gen. Buhari or any other presidential candidates,” he said.
According to him, “whoever came up with this idea, I believe, is speaking his own mind and not that of Northern Christian leaders. What you just witnessed is a fraud. This Forum has no right to take such a decision the way it has taken. Our members comprise of people belonging to different political parties and it is our belief that our members are free to vote for any candidate of their choice,” he said.
Another pastor who sought anonymity told our correspondent that the agenda was dead on arrival.
“The fact is that we were taken unawares by this so-called endorsement. Some of us have invested our integrity in our spiritual assignment that we cannot sell ourselves so cheaply. There are going to be a lot of counter reactions to this embarrassing development after this moment.”
Outside the lobby of the ICC, pastors were sharply divided as they discussed the development and its implications on their integrity and sub-groups in the northern region. A group was overheard expressing its displeasure that they could be invited to such a “shameful programme.”
One of them told newsmen when he was approached that the endorsement was planned. “I am an insider and I know everything that is happening here.”
The cleric stated that he had been in Abuja since the beginning of the week for an important event before a friend who was one of the organisers of the event asked him to wait behind to attend the meeting.
“It was supposed to be an interactive discussion with Gen. Buhari by the pastors to hear from him the grievances of the clerics from the northern part of the country but dramatically, it turned out as an endorsement meeting. Of course, the pastors will collect their welfare packages and go back knowing full well that this is fake,” he said.
Another Jos-based clergyman lamented that he had been dribbled into what he described as a big scam by politicians in the forum who are working for APC.
“Some of us were promised N100,000 each if we come here (Abuja). Later, they said the money had been reduced to figure of N50,000.”
However, what aggravated the anger of the clerics was the way they said they were shabbily treated. “What is so annoying now is that they eventually gave those of us who came from Jos N5,000, and then doled out N3,000 to those within Abuja axis. It is regrettable to have come here at all,” he said.
When Pastor Aminchi was later asked by newsmen to react to the grievances of some of his members, he said that “all the members on our list were sponsored.”
Asked to clarify the contention that the issue of endorsement of Buhari or any other presidential candidate was never discussed in any of their previous meetings and if it was, did the executive council of the Forum send the resolutions to all members, Pastor Aminchi emphatically stated that, “the issue was well discussed and attended.
“We held meetings in Zaria and Kaduna last week. Anyone who has a dissenting voice against what we have just done is definitely not our member,” he said.
In an attempt to give the meeting a wider spread, some of the pastors registered their churches in the states of the North where they are not represented. They also included the names of churches whose leaders were invited but did not attend the meeting.
Among the northern Christian leaders in at the meeting included Pastor Paul Great of Methodist Church, Jos; Bishop Lawrence Awanorwo, New Creation School of Divinity, Niger State; Bishop Daniel Oboni, Christ Life Evangelistic Church, Bauchi State (instead of Jos); Bishop Musa Gomson, Unlimited Mercy and Glory Church, Gombe State (instead of Jos); Apostle (Dr.) Abraham Babe, World Christian Mission, Taraba State (operates in Jos); Paul Zumta, Alheri Baptist Church, Sokoto State; Rev. Sam Adejoh, Life Changer Christian Centre, Yobe (instead of Jos); Rev. Daniel D. Gonzuk, Amazing Grace, Benue State (operates in Jos); Rev. Emmanuel Edesiri, Destiny Path Assembly Int. Nasarawa State (instead of Jos), Rev. (Dr.) Sunday, Divine Latter Times, Borno State (instead of Jos) and others.
Beside Osinbajo, Buhari was accompanied to the meeting by former Chief of Army Staff and Director of Security Committee of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Gen. Abdulrahman Dambazau, Prof. Abdullahi and Gen. Paul Tarfa. Both Buhari and Osinbajo were presented copies of the Holy Bible at the meeting.

I’ll not promote one religion over another – Buhari
In his speech at the event, Buhari assured the Christian leaders that he would not promote one religion over another if elected president of Nigeria.
He said as a practicing Muslim, he never shared the views of any extremist group.
Buhari said: “I will not entertain, consider or promote the religious agenda of anyone. I will not condone any initiative that seeks to promote one religion over the other. Neither I, nor my party, or any member of my team has any desire or plan to Islamise or Christianise Nigeria or support anyone with such intention.
“Although I am a practicing Muslim, and I have been so all my life, I have never belonged to, nor shared the views of any extremist group. I am not even a cleric. I believe that religion is personal and private.
“Most of my bodyguards are Christians. If I have not Islamised these people who serve under me, how will I Islamise the likes of Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, Ogbonnaya Onu, Governor Rochas Okorocha,
Kayode Fayemi, Rotimi Amaechi or Prof. Yemi Osinbajo who is a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and a pastor?”
Buhari stressed that religion was never a factor with people he had worked with, saying what matters was that they were competent.
The APC candidate said Nigerians at all time should hold the unity, peace and progress of the country paramount and above all other considerations, especially politics.

Politics › Re: The Great Oba Of Benin Is Dead by hardbody: 6:13pm On Feb 13, 2015
martin123:
Breaking News: The Great Oba of Benin Reportedly joins his ancestors. His Royal Majesty Omo n’Oba n’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo Erediauwa, the monarch of Benin Kingdom has joined his ancestors. He was 92 years old.According to authoritative sources within and outside Edo State, the well-regarded king transited to the great beyond about two weeks ago.

His death is still being kept secret because by Benin tradition, the death of an Oba could only be officially announced 30 days after his transition.The Oba was said to have died in his palace. Immediately he was confirmed dead by his personal physician, a delegation of senior Benin chiefs went to the house of the heir apparent the throne, Prince Eheneden Erediauwa to inform him of the development.

Investigations by ionigeria news revealed that the Oba died about two days before the campaign rally of the Presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Major General Mohammadu Buhari in Benin City. Buhari had his rally in Benin City on Thursday, January 29, 2015. That is why the Monarch could not receive Major General Buhari.

Similarly, when President Goodluck Jonathan visited Benin City for his campaign rally, he was only received at the palace by a team of Benin chiefs led by the Iyase, Chief Sam Igbe. Oba Erediauwa was born in 1923, son of Oba Akenzua II.

Before being crowned he was known as Prince Solomon, Aiseokhuoba, Igbinoghodua Akenzua. He attended Edo College, Benin City, Government College, Ibadan then Yaba College, before going to King’s College, Cambridge to study Law and Administration. He joined the Eastern Nigeria Civil Service in 1957 as a District Officer, later moving to the Federal Civil Service where he retired as Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health in 1973.

For a short period he was the regional representative of Gulf Oil. In 1975 he was appointed Commissioner for Finance in Bendel State during the Military Administration of Major-General George Agbazika Innih.Ascending to the throne as the 38th Oba of Benin on 23 March 1979.

During this period, he several times acted as a peacemaker between politicians. For example, he intervened in a dispute between Abia State governor Orji Uzor Kalu and Tony Anenih, Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party Board of Trustees, and resolved another face-off involving Anenih and former Edo State Governor Lucky Igbinedion.

More recently, he tried to broker peace between the feuding members of Edo State House of Assembly.It would be recalled that his wife, Queen Esther died about a year ago. we made some calls to one or two family members, but they neither refuted nor confirm the story to be true or false.

We therefore believe this has a lot to do with the tradition of keeping quiet for 30 days. so we advise you handle this as speculation until the palace releases its official statement, so we do not offend the traditions of the great Bini kingdom.May his soul rest in perfect peace.

The VC must have attended the same secondary school as Buhari (if at all).

should science students not have some explanation on this phenomenon which at least must have some scientific reasons. It shows how crude our education system can be, when this is happening inside a citadel of learning. Elsewhere, the lab will be abuzz with students and lecturers trying to demystify that happening by taking the bark and roots of the tree to check out what has happened.

Reminds me of Dilibe Onyeama's book, 'Nigga at Eton' or is it 'S.e.Bleep is a Nigg's game' where he wrote that a white person that comes across a mountain or an unusual highland will start wondering what is on the other side and commence preparations on how to scale the mountain and determine for the sake of posterity what is to be learnt about the uneven surface. His contemporary black man sees a challenge and obstacles by the gods and immediately settles down to offer sacrifices to appease the gods and those whom the gods have used to barricade his way. Dark continent sworn to remaining dark for eternity.

Apply to our democracy. See GEJ and Buhari refusing to play clean on their silly elections where they are both dirty and criminally minded. the followers are only interested in the better of the two evils, knowing they are both evil. I weep for this country.

God owes me a personal explanation why he made me a Nigerian (now a Biafran) knowing my mentality and attitude to life. SMH

Valentine's day is around the corner. The hunting has began for all of them. This is a period where all of them are looking for those unfortunate boys and men to spend on them this period. What makes it interesting is that they will gladly open their maggot infested vaginas to the highest bidder this period. Guys be wise and don't fall prey to these girls whose vaginas have been bleeped by the entire community.
Do you have arrested development? Are you wallowing in penury? Don't you have any regard to the women folk? Do you have sisters at all or like me you have none? if the later be the case, were you not born of a woman? why do you degrade and call them names including saying that their viggies are maggor infested, are you ga.y? Who do date? fellow males?

It is valentine soon, whatever that means to you, but does it follow that you must spend if you do not have money? That day will come and go and life continues.

Well, why am i even typing all these, this might just be the rantings of a senior secondary school straddler.

falconey:
that is great!!!!........thank you keep helping us till BUHARI take over
They are not helping us, they are protecting their country and its sovereignty. For your information, if the BH does not get support from neighbouring countries such as chad, cameroun and Niger, they will not be able to sustain a fight as they will be no source of supply for them purely from Nigeria.

So all we need is for those neighbours to defend their territories solidly and we will route the BH at our own end. Where do you think they go to re-group and re-launch?

The music star posted a shocking message today on Ig stating that a teacher of his in high school said he was the most unlikely to suceed with a picture with two of his cars visible behind him.

He captioned the picture, ‘My French teacher in high school told me me I was the MOST UNLIKELY TO SUCCEED. JOKES ON HER!!’

She is still correct. You are successful in music not in french

You can't vote a northerner as president yet you lived in their land for 18years. There you gained your sustenance for those long years o.


I'm just so sick of people from other regions making the northerners look like the devil himself, meanwhile we commit as much as the same or even worst atrocities than them.

Talk about Soka forest in the west.
Baby factories in the east and even some parts of the west.
What of kidnapping?
The major prostitutes there are in the north are from the other sanctimonious regions, their people must have rejected them. They find a home in the north and 'pollute' it.
Not forgetting numerous child abuse and homicide cases we hear from all the sanctimonious regions.
These are just .0% of the atrocities from our own regions yet we dare call the northerners all sorts of name. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands.
You made sense to me. And i am from the Eastern axis.

akinsadeez:
The only problem I have with him is that his predictions are always couched in very vague and obscure language such that basically anything that happens will fit into the prophesy. The tines that he has gone on record with pretty definite prophecies it didn't happen. He was recorded on video saying that the Malaysian plane that vanished would be found imminently. Till now the plane has not been found and he did not release any video explaining why d prophesy didn't come to pass.

This man is fraud epitomized. I pity those that follow him and his teachings. Is he not the man that negligently killed people who came to sheepishly follow his lies and he turned round and said his building was remotely controlled. Buffoon.
