Mummy stop ranting

Attend to the issue we raised

Which issues?

Buhari goes to Kaduna to unveil locomotive trains and a open yard with cranes and you call that an achievement?

If GEJ had not conceived and completed the Kaduna-Abuja rail, will there be a port project commissioning or a locomotive unveiling?

You zombies like celebrating the most mudane form of mediocrity

sarrki:
That shows how PDP is paying you guys

We thank God baba had to stop all those looting

You that is online worshippping Buhari day and night?

We are here to clear the misinformation you spew so that gullible idiots wont take it as facts.

It is a service that we must do for posterity sake.

This is our own patriotic contribution

Blue3k:
You point is dumb. Lagos doesn't receive revenue from port the federal government does. The point of dry port is reduce business cost by speeding up clearing times. Business benefit by being able to clear good closer to them. You should research before boring me with nonsense.

Lagos gets a slice of port revenues through vat payments and port facility charges.

Just put your house in order! The evil man in aso rock is going. Even his prophet Mbaka has told him so.

I will saving part of my 30k BMC stipend if I were you.

He has to be online 24/7 creating zombie threads and posts becuase his new contract is not on a flat 30k per month anymore, but pay-as-you post.

The going rate is about 10 naira per post and 100 nair per thread created.

Man must feed.

frankyychiji:
Some youth corpers served in their states. Because he was not absorbed into the system by suswan was the beginning of his nightmare.
Omenkalives currently resides in Lagos where he shares toilet facilities with 12 other tenants.

Nobody deginerates his own state of origin.

Even Ebiras from Okene - one of the worst towns in Nigeria in what is arguably the worst state in Nigeria , Kogi will never ever castigate their state or town.

Omenka was and is still a role playing shill.

He has since stopped playing the benue clown since after the elections.

Blue3k:
Yawn excuses excuses. He's been given his credit for rails. He simply failed in dry ports just like he failed with the Second Niger Bridge. Your saying Jonathan delivered world class rail infrastructure by reviving old rails. APC is trying to follow up with bigger and better. Coastal rail project and the other routes.

And what is the logic for dry ports ? All the goods are coming through Lagos port.

So that means goods will be shipped to the north where they will be cleared and guess what you compound mumu, Lagos will be denied the rightful revenue as they will claim the goods where cleared at Kaduna.

sarrki:
Keep quiet

PDP I mean pdp will never rule this country again

I know that's what is giving you and your likes heartache

There wont be a PDP nor an APC or a country callled Nijeriya at this rate.

keep wasting your life online for crumbs

Walelavender:
So issues of national development doesn't border us anymore but what someone decides to do with his money!

Stop talking trash!

Take your national disgrace issues to Buhari and your fake Pastors.

What is stopping Adeboye and co in speaking up? Oh I forgot, they are waiting for 2019 so that they can ordain Buhari as God's anointed king in return for money.

Blue3k:
Succeeding where he failed isn't enough? I would say reducing Boko Haram to minimum and I'll count Manbilla power project. Then the anchor borrowing program, school feeding, and rescuing some of the Chibok girls. The other rail projects are currently ongoing.

Since the colonial era, it was only GEJ that revamped and expended the existing railway lines.

The deal he struck with the Chinese is what your Buhari is following up on.

In terms of solid economic/financial policies and infrastructural projects, GEJ remains world class.

If those projects and policies where not sound, why is your APC still following up on his legacy projects?

sarrki:
The dynamics in Benue State is complex and complicated unlike ekiti and bayelsa that are doing well with the enacted grazing laws in the states. Benue State has also enacted a grazing law that came into effect in November 2017, unfortunately it is even citizens of the state that are encouraging the herdsmen to be defiant and disobey the law. .

You no get sense at all

sarrki:
We will never retreat or surrender

He destroyed and damaged our economy

The GEJ bashing helped get your messiah in office.

Dont you think is about stale you found another villan to bash?

People are getting sick and tired of your cheap propaganda lies.

frankyychiji:
No you are wrong brother! I know him down to his roots. Believe me.

I have gone through his posts and found a post he made where he castigated Benue state stating his experience in Makurdi as a Youth Corper.

He is a typical Yoruba Muslim from Kwara.

I did a thread on this but it was pulled down for only God knows why.

Before the 2015 elections there were so many role playing shills who assumed Niger Deltan, Igbo and middle Belt identities.

All where fake just like that transgendered Ngene or whatever.

cassidy1996:
we need another Moses to lead us across this plenty waters.

No more Moses for you.

You children of perdition will remain in Egypt as the slaves you were born to be.

frankyychiji:
My brother Omenka, please how is the situation in Benue state currently? Once again, accept my sincere condolences for the needless loss of life of your innocent kith and kin at the hands of APC led govt agencies.

Life is so precious. No amount of dry sea port can bring back the dead. No amount of dry sea port can take away the fear fully established in the hearts of the remnants still living.

The dead will not rest in peace until their killers are brought to book.

Omenka is NOT from Benue.

He did his youth service there.

He is from Kwara

Blue3k:
can say he succeed somewhere Jonathan failed good failed. Nice blast from the past. Anyway Buhari should establish the 6 he has planned.

At least Buhari is following up on GEJ's solid legacy.

Which one of Buhari's promises and campaign pledges has he delivered?

That dry port wont have been successful without the rail network GEJ revived.

pauljumbo:
My own is to pay tithe and not to monitor where my tithe goes

Its obvious you don't pay tithe why crying for what you don't practice

Their are more pressing issues in the country like insecurities and the rest use your e experience energy on it.

Tithe is a personal religious practice

The sooner you realize that you are NOT serving God or the church in anyway by greasing the palms of these modern day Annanias the better Christian you will become.

pauljumbo:
Use your energy on the evil in the land like the killing that is going in benue state

Tithe is a religious and personal matter

People who pay tithes don't complain

And what of your Daddy GO? Why can't he talk?

The reason why Christians are facing a jihad is because the church is dead - led by crooks like Adeboye who are only interested in your money and NOT your salvation.

Ilorin was, in population, still an Oyo town - probably over 95% Oyo in population. And Ilorin was never conquered or even invaded by any Fulani army. Those influential Oyo men who made Alimi and his son the rulers of Ilorin did so out of fervour for their Islamic faith.

When the news of the happenings in Ilorin spread all over the Oyo country, people were shocked to hear that Ilorin people had made the family of an obscure Fulani charm peddler their rulers. Therefore, people formed armies to go and subdue Ilorin and flush out the Fulani impostors. None of these invasions of Ilorin succeeded. The invading armies were poorly organized, and, moreover, the old Afonja army defending Ilorin was just too powerful. In fact, in the end, the Ilorin people, in order to ensure perfect protection for their fervently Muslim town, decided to go out and conquer most of Yorubaland (all the way to the sea coast), and make all of it a Muslim empire ruled from Ilorin.

Their army marched out in about 1838, conquering town after town towards the south, and causing mammoth streams of refugees. Till today, most Yoruba people still call this Ilorin invasion a Fulani invasion of Yorubaland. But it was not a Fulani invasion at all; it was an attempt by the predominantly Yoruba Muslim people of Ilorin to conquer and Islamize the rest of Yorubaland.

The victorious Ilorin march southwards ended suddenly in 1840. The refugees who had gathered in the Egba village of Ibadan had quickly become a large town. Their army marched out and met the Ilorin army in Oshogbo in 1840, and totally destroyed them, capturing many of their commanders. From then on, the power of Ilorin was more or less over, and Ilorin never dared again to face the Ibadan army in battle.

In the following years, Ibadan became the most powerful state in Yorubaland, and established control over the Oshun valley, Ife, Ijesa, Ekiti, Akoko, Igbomina and parts of Iyagba. Ilorin continued to be ambitious to control some territory in its immediate neighbourhood – in nearby Igbomina and Ibolo (especially Offa); but they feared Ibadan. In 1877, the Ekiti, Ijesa, Igbomina and Akoko revolted against Ibadan’s rule, and the Kiriji War started, keeping all these peoples and Ibadan busy until 1893. Ilorin took advantage of this and established some feeble control over parts of Igbomina and Ibolo.

However, at home in Ilorin itself, a proper Emirate could not develop. The powerful Yoruba war chiefs wanted to re-establish the traditional Yoruba political system whereby the chiefs in a kingdom select their king. The Emirs resisted. By 1895, the chiefs were winning the contest grandly – a situation which forced the Emir Momoh to commit suicide after setting his palace on fire. The victorious chiefs then installed Sulaiman as Emir. This was the situation when the forces of the British Royal Niger Company came and conquered Ilorin in 1897.

In the years that followed, it was the British that established Ilorin as a full-fledged emirate, making the Ilorin Emir like the Emirs of Hausaland. The Emir then took advantage of that to establish all sorts of Emirate-type control over Ibolo and northern Igbomina.

In short, Ilorin was never conquered (was never even invaded) by the Fulani. Ilorin is more than 90% Yoruba in population. The Igbomina, Ibolo, and Ekiti of Kwara, because they have hated the imposture of the Ilorin Emirs since the beginning of British rule, tend to be usually cool towards Ilorin. But, now, with the National Conference, all of that will, hopefully, change.

I need to add this note: The question about Ilorin is very likely to become a major bone of contention between the Yoruba and the North at the National Conference. We need to educate our people in preparation for this. I find, therefore, that this article on the subject has to be somewhat longer than the usual 1120 words, and I should be grateful if you would accommodate it together as one continuous piece.

First a little history....

Ilorin was a small town in the Oyo Empire by the beginning of the 19th century. Afonja, Baale of Ilorin, who also held the title of Are Ona Kakanfo of the Oyo Empire, rebelled against his king, the Alafin of Oyo, in 1817. (There is no space here for the reasons for his rebellion). In order to sustain his rebellion, he was desperate to build a large and powerful army. To that end, he did a number of desperate things.

First, he invited the people of nearby villages to move to Ilorin and turn Ilorin into a large town. Many people so moved, but most refused.

Secondly, he reached out to many prominent friends all over the Oyo country, and invited them to come and live in Ilorin. Some accepted his invitation and came. Among these was a rich trader named Solagberu from Kuwo. Another was a man named Alimi, a Fulani man who had long lived in the Oyo country peddling charms from town to town. Afonja employed Alimi to make charms for him and his army.

Thirdly, Afonja decided to exploit a religious situation that was causing trouble in the country at the time. A Jihad movement had started in Hausaland in the north in 1804, generating wars and stormy Islamic evangelism there. It was started and led by an immigrant people called Fulani. The Fulani immigrants were few among the large Hausa nation, but very many of the Hausa who were already Muslims sided with the Fulani – and thus made it possible for the Fulani to defeat the ancient Hausa kings and make themselves rulers over Hausaland.

Some of the violent Jihadist preachers trickled south into the Oyo country. Everywhere they came, they were causing a lot of commotion by preaching violent and disrespectful sermons against the Oyo kings and chiefs, and against Yoruba culture in general. Yoruba people, with their tradition of religious tolerance, were alarmed; and angry crowds began to attack the preachers. Afonja decided to exploit the situation by issuing a general invitation to the Muslims to flee to him in Ilorin, promising to give them protection there. Thousands of frightened Muslims fled to Ilorin, and Afonja trained many of them for his army. (Afonja himself did not intend to convert to Islam, and he never did).

Fourthly, most rich Oyo families had Hausa, Nupe and Fulani slaves - used mostly in farming, trading, livestock rearing, etc. Most were Muslims.

Afonja decided to exploit this also. He issued a proclamation saying that if any slaves ran away from their owners and came to him in Ilorin, he would give them freedom and protection there. Large numbers of slaves, mostly Hausa, fled to Afonja, and he trained some of them for his army.

Afonja thus had his large town and large army. Most of his army’s commanders and soldiers were Oyo Muslims. A few of the soldiers were Muslim Hausa – all slaves recently set free by Afonja. But many of his Hausa soldiers were unruly. He warned or threatened them repeatedly, but with no result. When he at last decided to discipline them, they mutinied. Afonja was killed in the mutiny - in 1823.

Meanwhile, while Alimi had been making charms for the army, he had become a friend to many of the Oyo commanders who were Muslims, and these hadmade him Imam (Islamic teacher and preacher) for the Muslim community in the army. After Afonja›s death, the same friends gradually made their Imam the ruler of Ilorin. They also created some officers among the Hausa soldiers - for instance, Balogun Gambari. The powerful men doing all these things were Oyo.

That then is how Oyo people made a Fulani man the ruler of Ilorin. When Alimi died, his elder son, Abdulsalam, was elevated to his father’s position by his father›s powerful Oyo Muslim friends. Adulsalam had lived in the Jihad in Hausaland and had only recently come to live with his father in Ilorin. He knew that the Jihad had made the Fulani the rulers of Ilorin - with a Fulani Sultanate based in Sokoto and quasi-independent Fulani Emirs in the separate Hausa kingdoms. So, after he was made ruler of Ilorin, he sent to Hausaland to announce that he had established an Emirate in Ilorin and to ask that his Emirate should be accepted as part of the Fulani Sultanate.

In this way, Ilorin became a Fulani Emirate, ruled by a Fulani family.

You can insult others but can't take a little insult

Hypocrite!

Veritasafrique:
Criminals around him surely are forcing him to sit tight for them to continue to use his name to loot

You first blamed GEJ and 16yrs of PDP as why your messiah can't deliver

You then claimed the Senate was to be blamed regarding the Budget padding

You then sided with him when he said Nigerians are corrupt

From there you even concurred with him when he said Nigerians are tad too impatient

Now you come with this bullsh1t claiming his own appointees are to be blamed.

You remind me of someone who is being scammed by a scammer and who makes up excuses for his scammer

I have restained myself from this tithe bruohaha for a long while. However, I realise that ignorance will keep people deceiving others for what they do not know. For many years I served as a freelance Treasuer at RCCG. Tithe is not given to GO, rather the Parishes retain a greater %, Area Hq, Regional HQ and Provincial HQ share the rest. The same applies to offering and first fruit. I observe that lot of comments are made sarcastically by those who are ignorant of what obtains in Christendom. I cannot speak for other churches but OP and his co-travellers should be advised that GO of RCCG Pastor EA Adeboye was not the first GO and neither does he claim to own RCCG. Anytime he retires or he is called to glory, a new GO will emerge, who may not necessarily be a family member.
On tithe and other givings in church, noone is forced to do these. If your faith is not able to carry it, you are free to attend church as a "goatie" rather than be a "sheepie". Let the goats live and let the sheep also flock. God knows His own.

By the way, am not a pastor not church leader, but a simple brother and follower of Jesus.

What is the age of retirement for Daddy Go?

If he doesnt own the church then why is his tenure so long and not abiding with corporate regulations which Redeem falls under?

Did Jesus order Peter to build churches or buy private Jets to ease his envagelism?

You will rot in the deepest corner of hell for supporting these rogues claiming to be Christians

Maybe you are currently aspiring to be a Pastor in Redeem so you can get paid as well from the lucre tithe

Veritasafrique:
It is now very clear to Nigerians that the present president of the country Muhamed Buhari is no longer himself.

If only you niggers will pick up a book once in a while and read up on your history.

This is 100% Buhari!

Stop blaming others for the old fool's foolishness

Continue blabbing.

Your day of reckoning is here.

You inconsequential fly !

Who are you threatening?

Mr Death you screwed this assignment and got the wrong Duara

Don't be silly.

Can you swear you are not on the payroll of some political outfit?

You think I'm not unto the games you Fayose and Wike employees play on this forum?

Stop that nonsense you people do or you would find me play dirty .

Accusing others of what they are doing is a hallmark of APC hypocrites.

You think everyone is a paid on-line shill working for a politician?

This is how your muslim buddies up north where blaming GEJ for BH when we all knew it was them behind it.

This is a hallmark of the so-called progressive luciferians from Obama to Buhari
