He said to stabilize the market, that is already done or being done. He said it on a channelstv interview with Seun on politics today. The context was clearly about the disparities and several fluctuations in pump price i
.e FG changing/increasing fuel prices indiscriminately, fuel selling at different and above stated price in different parts of the country. i suppose you sit somewhere in one state and are not aware of this. Things have changed and improved greatly. We now buy petrol at it's stated price of 87 naira. Diesel and kerosene have also been affected. Subsidy money has also felt the change. We thank the Lord for our leader Buhari.

Summary, the list has just 19 countries, and we were included in 2013. No worries.

It doesn't matter if He was even green, what matters is that He died for me, and you.

Don't BOTHER to be good duh, there's none good but God.

@OP
Because we have to live in the Spirit to follow Christ, meanwhile we're usually fleshly.

OLAADEGBU:
But some churches use this as an excuse to support communism. What could be their reason?

Bro, the Bible can be used as excuse to support virtually anything. It is important we are students of the Word,studying to show ourselves approved to God. Or we should at least be followers and sheep to those/such students. All been said and done, we need to HOLD ON to the Head,Christ. Not swayed by philosophies, opinions and silly studies that take people no where important.

Sarassin:
I take your point. Clearly it must be a misunderstanding if the OP is claiming the gospel authors of Mathew, Luke et al were eyewitnesses to the accounts they wrote.

Maybe a combination of the factors. Misunderstandings by humans, imperfections in comprehension and expression.

Well, serious people give deadlines. Also, they don't say never. The Presidency gave a mandate to the army to do it's job by the end of the year. A disciplined army(zombie) says YES SIR. That's military for you, it's not politics, they work with order or command. Even in establishment, when the CEO, HOD, manager or oga gives deadline or target, the employees struggle to achieve and even surpass it. There's something that links success with goalsetting, winners understand this. Mediocres and wailers don't.

Sarassin:
Well, what about the community at Qumran who wrote the dead sea scrolls (the Essenes), all property was shared in common, they had all meals together, and worshipped together all on the same commune and shunned the outside world. It sounds to me they were probably the forerunner of what we now know as "Communists" Jesus undoubtedly knew of them many of his practises were straight from the Essene group.

John 8:38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

Jesus didn't shun the world.

Sarassin:
hahaha....,

I am not sure what you mean by misunderstandings, by whom ? I would say there are more than a few contradictions in the bible that cannot simply be "rationalised away"

Misunderstandings by humans, imperfections in comprehension and expression.

The wailing wailers.

OLAADEGBU:
There is a passage in Acts 2 which some have used to support ‪Communism. Is it a valid reading? Which leads to the question of the OP: "Does the Bible support Communism"? Was the early church, as recorded in the Acts of Apostles communist?

No, that's not Communism. Communism involves ELIMINATION of private property. Many believers had private property after Acts2. Also, this wasn't a mandated practice, neither was it done everywhere.

Sarassin:
Yup, that certainly clears up all those contradictions, insertions and alterations.

hehehehehehehehehe, funniest quote of the day. BTW, i see no contradictions in all the Bible though, maybe misunderstandings.

mentorandfriend:
P

Nice article, nice thread.

Shehu Shagari was banned from participation in politics for life. Na so we go ban former president Jonathan and him goons. Amen.

OBSEQUIOUS:
When Buhari gave the famous speech at eagle square that military command center will be moved to battle area everyone clapped for a general and commander in chief ready to lead his army.
Yes! We need a general to quash boko haram according to APC propaganda, and yes! We got THE GENERAL.

Usually, i do not comment or discuss hearsay/rumour. i'm yet to find any tangible proof showing or stating that Buhari plans to be minister(petroluem) as your thread title suggests. Nonetheless, it is a very welcome development if it is so. Anyways, tomorrow is not too far away. Over to your thread, everyone did not clap for Buhari's speech. Wailers made noise about why command center should not be at the battle front, its dangers, how things are done in US and Iraq etc.

(1). Has general Buhari been to the command center since he moved them their? Or he simply sent a civilian Osinbajo with no "military experience" like Jonathan?.

He doesn't need to be there to do his job. He put them there to do their job. Even if he lives there, he can only boost their morale which is already done, he won't carry gun or whatever you imagine he should do instead.

(2). Has general Buhari visited any of the explosion sites like the "weak" Jonathan did?.

The former president was 'clueless', we didn't vote Buhari to follow his steps.

(3). Has there not been more bombings in 3 months under the general than it was in 3 years under "the civilian" Jonathan?

No. We have lost over 20,000 lives to boko haram insurgency officially. Of that over 20,000, Buhari's administration is not officially up to 1,500. Take note. Also, bombings increased due to desperation and change of strategy on the part of the insurgents. That was their only option left. In the former government, they festered, grew, captured towns and local governments, pillaged barracks and police stations, kidnapped women and children in their hundreds. All that is stopped, so the bombing desperation is expected and will be stopped soon by God's grace.

(4). They say Jonathan celebrated independence day inside Aso rock because of fear of boko haram, now the GENERAL who made gallant statement at eagle square and ordered the military chiefs to defeat boko haram in 3 months hide himself and the legion of guards in same Aso rock this year as boko haram were relentlessly bombarded Abuja.

The current government spent/approved just 70million for Independence Day celebration compared to the billions that was the usual style of the past administration. You don't need a very great IQ to see that the celebration was low key.

(5). How come there is this criminal silence on the almost daily killings and raiding and bombings going on in the north by both boko haram and Fulani cowboys killing and destroying towns and villages and even adding kidnapping now (ask Pa Olu Falae) despite us having a general as president?, oh! I get it, if the people know and are adequately informed about the cases, then it will deflate the "we have conquered boko haram" lies.
(6). THE REAL DANGER IS NO LONGER IN THE ATTACKS BUT IN THE DELIBERATE CONCEALING OF TRUTH ABOUT THE ATTACKS JUST TO MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THE WAR IS OVER.

i'm guessing you are hearing your own news straight from heaven or angels or through visions? The activities of boko haram are in the news, they are on NTA, channelstv, saharareporters, premiumtimes, dailytrust, punchng etc. They are referred to on social media too, are you on this planet? Actually, the news was muffled in the previous administration, not this current administration. So many hundreds of kidnaps and killings and the former Presidency were very silent about it, dancing around Kano, first ladies disgracing the nation, DSS and co denying news reports, etc. If not for small girl Malala that came to tell GEJ about Chibok girls openly before the government accepted, and so many more. If you dop not know, we know and we have not forgotten sir.

(7). They keep showing us how many boko haram fuel depot and foodstuffs they discovered all over the place and YET no discovery of the CHIBOUK GIRLS upon whose (abduction??) they based one of their strongest propaganda against Jonathan.

It is the victories gotten that can be shown. If they find the Chibok girls, i'm sure they will not hide them. At least, they have been showing hundreds of others that were rescued and those that have been arrested. If you know where the Chibok girls are or have suggestions, you can tell us. The government is seriously looking for them. Jonathan lost because his government failed, not just because or evewn chiefly because of Chibok girls. Its BBOG group that were shouting about about Chibok girls and they are still doing that daily and weekly in different states.

(. Bombs does not discriminate, it doesn't know if you are APC, PDP, APGA or of any political party or religious background, so it is something that must be roundly condemned by all well meaning Nigerian, BUT WHEN POLITICIANS USE A BAD SITUATION LIKE THE BOKO HARAM THING AS PROPAGANDA TO WIN ELECTION ONLY FOR THEM TO START LOOKING FOR EXCUSES FOR FAILING TO STOP IT, THEN WE SHOULD BE SERIOUSLY WORRIED FOR OUR DEAR NATION.
If Buhari has anything "GENERAL" in him, let him take the Defence ministry (that is where Nigeria need him now)and not the petroleum ministry.

Nobody is looking for excuses, you are the one looking for excuses. The government maintains that they are committed to ending boko haram problems before the end of the year. Do your part in helping that cause if you can, or keep quiet and engage in things that you understand better. We need Buhari in the Petroluem ministry because that is where over 90% of our revenue comes from. That is the base and major of our economy. If it fails or goes wrong, it is him they will blame. That is where the biggest corruption is. That is where he needs to monitor and make sure that nothing is covered or brushed under the carpet in ongoing investigations and audits of those who have stolen our commonwealth. The fight against corruption, and the economy is right there.

We shall continue to pray that God expose those behind the killing of innocent Nigerians.
LET BUHARI TAKE MINISTRY OF DEFENCE AS "THE GENERAL" HE IS, THEN WE CAN TAKE HIM SERIOUSLY.

It's better you pray than all these needless and senseless complaints. We do not need you to take Buhari seriously. He has lived thuis far without you taking him seriously, and God will grant him more life, success and 8years as Nigeria's president without you taking him seriously. Thanks.

A state government that cannot generate revenue to pay salaries wants to build airport? This is madness. Ekiti state is among the three poorest states in Nigeria, they don't need an airport for the next 10years,seeing that they lack a leader that can change that status. He's just doing it for selfish reasons, so that if Ekiti ever ever have an airport even if it's 50years time, they'll say he started it or something, or name it after him. But such glory being achieved at the detriment of the state is unfair and devilish.

If this is what Mr Adesina said, he's very wrong and that's an irresponsible thing to say. He cannot be too busy to address the nation for 10-15mins once in a while. That's inferiority complex from the media team of the Presidency.

sledjama:
Nice shot, but we need to start discussing how the US military can loan us K9 trainers to help train tens of german sherpherds which they should have gotten by now, to help sniff out these bastards moving around cities with IEDs.
Each 8 month old should cost less than $5000 each

better still, there are companies who render such services, lets end these bastards called boko harams.

Nice one.

chuna1985:
So d evidence of Christ is "u saying so" lmfao, u failed to answer my question...Are u that stupidd

The evidence that the truth has given me Jesus the Christ is you hearing me say so,don't get it twisted. Immaturity seems to be a challenge for you, i guess you're a kid, I've answered all your questions. What is the truth and what has it done for you?

Waiting for the female bombers to surrender. These men have been useless and ineffective for long.

Hehehehehehehehehehe, celebration in our nation. Congratulation and jubilation.

theVoice, passingshot, omenka, modath,midolian,tonyebarcanista, make una come see oh.

Chizzled06:
The one that thought you to think you are better than anyone else who doesn't believe? No thank you.

Some dude named Jesus probably lived a few thousand years ago. He has some revolutionary teachings attributed to his nane which aren't too bad, but following a fundamental flaw of being brought up in Judaism, he was deluded in religion, just as you are. The civil unrest he caused led to his crucifixion by the Romans. And he ceased to exist, just like you will after you die.

PS. "Believe in me (blindly) and worship me and I will give you eternal life" is a rather narcissistic principle don't you think?

You miss the vital point, you have no point. Remember, you say you are not better, and you have nothing better to offer. ALWAYS remember that.

Chizzled06:
Okay. Which Jesus? Biblical Jesus or Historical Jesus?

Who cares? The One that gave eternal life for believing in Him, the One that died for you and of course, me. i see you have nothing better.

chuna1985:
lol,how do I know it has given u Jesus

By hearing me say so, how else?

chuna1985:
U mean the lying bible that has single, double n triple prophesies...Lol

You failed to answer my question, are you that foolish?

Chizzled06:
What exactly do you have that you are demanding better of? Nothing.

Jesus, i have Jesus.

chuna1985:
What has the one u have been carrying done for u

It has given me Jesus. You seem to lack ideas or simply don't know. Stop throwing my questions back to me, simply answer them. What is the truth and what has it done for you?

chuna1985:
How do I know urs

Don't be boring. By reading the Bible, so how do you know that God has no son, that only men do?

MizJanet:
Dont worry, You will go to heaven tonight .

And you'll go to hell when you die if you don't repent. Take note.

Chizzled06:
I don't feel I'm 'better' than any other human. It's an aspect of moral humility that I've learnt to possess.
Your concept of being 'better' than others is a fundamental flaw of the dogma and doctrines that have been drilled down your throat.

You're not saying anything. i don't need your so called option if you are not better and have nothing better to offer.
