Jesus the shepherd

As a Christian I don't understand where his hatred for herders comes from

nairavsdollars:
Where are all the online keyboard warriors who are saying Yoruba nation activist Sunday Igboho is now in Germany and abusing those saying he is still in detention in Benin Republic?

midolian:

Democracy, due process and what have you doesn't work here. Black man is cursed. The only language he understands is koboko

Igboho turn cat enter Benin Republic without following due process.

midolian:
With which preek?

Weyrey!

midolian:
Hey kid, go get some sense before you mention people like us next time. Not every thing is herdsmen, this is the point we are trying to make. Even obvious communal clashes are blamed at herdsmen. You no get sense to see this? Nobody is denying there are no killings here and there..but let it be reported as it is.. Recently, the face behind the evil gunmen killing people in Benue was unmasked and it was discovered that they are tiv people..this is one out of many..

midolian:

Says the lawyer of each and every criminal has stolen from Nigeria national treasury.

rosinkkit:
It is A Wicked LIE That Bandits Are Not Being Apprehended.

A lie calculated to embarrass his Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR.

So we see silly stuff written, such as ''They arrested Kanu. Why can't they arrest bandits?''

''They arrested Sunday Igboho, Why can't they arrest bandits?''

WELL I DID SOME RESEARCH.

GOOGLE is such a useful tool for dismantling lies and propaganda.

Here's what I found on just the first page of Google:

Gunrunner for notorious bandits arrested with N3.5M, 2 motorcycles
https://dailypost.ng/2021/06/25/gunrunner-for-notorious-bandits-arrested-with-n3-5m-2-motorcycles/

This was just the FIRST PAGE of Google. Many more such arrests and apprehensions in subsequent pages.

Many bandits are rotting in jail as we speak.

They are not big names, so the media ignores them.

Now, arresting one man like Kanu or Igboho is a lot easier and more straightforward than arresting ALL the bandits in a 210 million strong country like Nigeria. There are thousands of them. So it is a longer effort.

Thank you.

vedaxcool:
Don't tell me you live under a rock. No negotiation with bandits just their demise.

KillIgbohoNOW:
Sunday Igboho is in Benue state!
I repeat, Sunday Igboho is in Benue state!!!

Apprehend the terrorist immediately! Is this how Oduduwa nation will operate?

KillIgbohoNOW:
It is a shame that the most powerful Afonja man & Commander in Chief of all Oduduwa armed forces, criminal fugitive terrorist Sunday Igboho is still hiding from a woman.

Haba

So Oduduwa nations's most powerful warrior is afraid of a woman that he has abandoned his wife and family and nation because he cannot face a woman??

They told us he has bulletproof vests sent down by Sango himself.

Wonders shall never end!

appishani1:
You guys will just sit in your south and be talking trash.
Is it not this guy that many girls say he rape them.
Am a Christian and am in the north.
Come to zamfara and Katsina or borno and yobe and see.
Every day soldiers and police are battling this bandits, I swear every blessing day.
Is either they kill security personnel or bandits everyday.
Do you know that in bama alone, a mere local government in borno state has more than 1000 soldiers?
When ever you want to talk get the facts first.

presidency:
It is unfortunate, and disappointing, for citizens of Nigeria to bear witness to one of their Churchmen castigating their country in front of representatives of a foreign parliament.

We are all too familiar with these overseas political tours that opposition politicians take - visiting foreign leaders and legislators in the United States, United Kingdom and Europe. So, the argument goes, if they are heard seriously abroad, then Nigerian citizens back home should surely listen to them too.

But in order to be heard at all, and to maximise media coverage back home for their activities, inevitably these visits involve painting the worst possible picture of our country before their chosen foreign audience.

Soon enough we inescapably hear an identical list of racist tropes against northerners, how one religion dominates governance above all others, how the government is doing nothing to address herder-farmer disturbances, and how the government spends money on infrastructure to benefit everyone but the group and religion of the speaker. Of course, in order not to disappoint their western audience, regardless of fact, the list is always the same-and always slanted for whoever wishes to cross-check.

Nigerians expect this from their unimaginative opposition - but it is troubling when a so-called man of the Church copies the worst excesses of those seeking personal advancement in public office.

Only this government has put forward the first and singular plan in nearly a century to address herder-farmer challenges - a fact recognised by international NGOs, including the International Crisis Group. To declare to a foreign audience that this government does nothing is an incredible falsehood.

To suggest that investment in infrastructure between Nigeria and Niger is wasteful and biased – when a similar infrastructure project between Lagos and Benin has revolutionised the two neighbouring economies to the advantage of both our countries - is quite disturbing.

There is no bias in this government when the president is northern and Muslim, the vice president southern and Christian, and the cabinet equally balanced between the two religions. But neither is there anything in our Constitution to state that political posts must be apportioned according to ethnicity or faith. It takes a warped frame of mind for a critic to believe ethnicity is of primary importance in public appointments. It is yet more troubling to hear a Churchman isolating one group for criticism purely on ethnic lines.

With due respect to the esteemed position he holds, the Bishop’s assertion that only Christian schools are being targeted by bandits or terrorists is not supported by the facts on the ground. It is sad to say but also true that victims of crime, kidnapping, banditry and terrorism cut across all strata of the society. Sad but true that Kankara students in Katsina State were stolen by bandits of the same Islamic faith as those they took away. The same may be true of those who are still holding the 134 students of the Islamic School at Tegina in Niger State. The nation witnessed the sad incident of the female students abducted by bandits at Jangebe in Zamfara State and the over 100 predominantly Muslim students of the Federal Government Girls College Birnin Yauri in Kebbi State who are currently in captivity- and the nation’s security agencies are hard at work to release them unharmed.

The attack on Christian students is sad and unacceptable; so also is the abduction of students of other faiths. The claim that only Christian schools are being targeted is totally untrue.

As a nation and a people, we must together define evil as evil. We must not allow our religious differences to divide us. No one gains but the evil doers when we divide our ranks according to ethnicity and religion in confronting them. The bandit, kidnapper and terrorist are the enemies of the people who should be confronted in unison.

To be clear, The Bible is definitive on matters of ethnicity and racialism: In Romans 2:9-10, it says: “There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; but glory, honour and peace for everyone who does good”; And in Galatians 3:28: “There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” Whether Christian or Muslim, we stand by these beliefs and are steadfastly committed to them in governance.

There is no place in mainstream civil discourse for those who actively, negatively, and publicly label an individual ethnic group, especially before a foreign audience. These are not the views expressed or opinions held by the vast majority of the citizens of Nigeria. For all our challenges as a nation, nearly all of us seek to live together in harmony, celebrating differences, and finding common ground as Nigerians above all. But people like Kukah are doing their best to sow discord and strife among Nigerians.

More than any other set of people, leaders - in politics or religion who preach respect for truth have a duty to practice it. It is a moral and practical responsibility.

Going by the history of the Church as is well known, it will stand up publicly for the truth.

It is time others did the same.

It shall never be well with those who brought this evil upon Nigeria

nyiamfrank:
Mr. Reno, can you link the fruitfulness of a tree to human attributes?
Is the pastor not bearing children?

Church growth? Financially or in population?

When some people left Jesus as he was preaching, did he drag them back? He even turned to the disciples and asked why they remained with him!

Winners must not mention money in that letter. Be fair, man.

InaNla:
Let him go and meet your new GO (Freezer) to employ him.

When you all campaigned against paying of tithe & offering, where do you expect his salary and cost of living paid by the church to come from?

Or better still he should go and meet APC & Buari to provide him one of the promised jobs.

“May he find grace for a new beginning. Peace.”

post=103824923:
Is that all they are going to say concerning the killings?


Why is this Adisa sounding so lame and nonchalant about this crime?
Look at the way he is sugar-coating things.
All the people involved in this should be made to face the music.
Every life matters.
All the perpetrators must face the consequences of their brutal actions.
