This is what Gen Buhari would have achieved for his beloved country had he accepted to mediate on Bokoharam behalf in Saudi Arabia when they nominated him.

We have lost unaccountable innocent Nigerians and properties worth billions of dollars including the defence budget wasted in the fight against these monsters, only for the selfish Buhari to borrow money to contest for president of a country he refused to sacrifice a little for its citizens.

Say no to Buhari, he is too selfish.

but why is all this on buhari alone? I won't like to be myopic in my reasoning! This is terrorism, remember?

MurderX:
So you really think the Chibok girls are still in one piece? They must have been terribly violated so we must judge these animals with jungle justice, no place for civility or negotiations. If we can recover some of the girls then fine but these guys must be exterminated.

even if they are not, to catch a monkey, u have to behave like one! To fight terrorism isn't as easy as you think o. U are talking from ur own angered point of view but u've gat to understand the fact that we all are angry at these idiots but the question here is; how has our anger been able to assist in saving the captives since over 6 months ago? This is the more reason the negotiation is necessary, not for any other thing.

sirjohnson:
Do not negotiate. Find another way abeg

suggest naa! I know if ur sister was among them you won't go against negotiation. Even the great USA comes to negotiation terms with terrorists to free their captured soldiers so why sud Great Nigeria not follow suit? Or do you think there is any other way to free those girls alive without negotiation? Well! That is if there are any so-called "Chibok girls" in boko haram captivity cos I never for once believed all these film script right from d onset!!!!

Yeeee!!! Gbese!!!! Na double wahala be dat 4 him dead body o!!!

This op is high on cheap weed even yabatech get beta buildings gaan

OP is not limiting is judgement to the buildings alone. Check out the planning and arrangement of the buildings naa. Moreover, I have being to most of these universities and polytechniques you all are mentioning and also to this Covenant, I can bet none can stand covenant in terms of structure. In schools like OAU and UI, there are lots and lots of old buildings that are just being renovated but in CU, all na ultramordern blocks o, even to the student's hostel buildings.

Na God catch am. Its a lesson for others

Annie! Mind no1 abeg! Its your time jaren fire on! I de feel u die. You know them naa, they must always talk

Ramanto:
sharia is not all about cutting of hands and stonning to dead as majority thinks.it's not such a bad system of government;it's a curruption-free and fair system of government.God prescribed this system of government in the scriptures unlike the baseless,flawed human made democracy and its likes

not all about but included! Rubbish!!!

Continuation
Even if God really did announce his name to be "I am" as in Exodus, chapter 3, verse 15, this still does not prove that Jesus applied the name "I am" to himself. Jesus never said his name is "I am". He is quoted as saying “Before Abraham was, I am" (John 8:58). If "I am" is Jesus name, then we should be able to replace the "I am" in this passage with "Jesus," since these are both names of Jesus. The passage would then read as follows: "Before Abraham was, Jesus." This, of course, makes no sense because the idea that Jesus called himself "I am" is not there in the text, but it is someone's own interpretation forced into the text. Notice that we would have no difficulty replacing the "I am" in Exodus 3:15 with either "God" or "Yahweh", as follows: This is what you are to say to the Israelites. "God has sent me to you" (Exod 3:15). This is what you are to say to the Israelites. "Yahweh has sent me to you" (Exod 3: 15).
Another point worth paying attention to is this: the writer of the fourth gospel never believed Jesus to be God. This proves that Jesus never said he is God. Otherwise, how could it be possible that the author of the fourth gospel never knew it? He believed that the Father is the only true God, and that Jesus is the Christ and messenger of God (see John 17:3).
Furthermore, a distinction which is present in the Greek version of the Bible is lost from the English versions. In the Septuagint Greek version of the Old Testament, the phrase translated "I am" is "ho on "in the Greek. If the author of the fourth Gospel wanted to show his readers that Jesus repeated the phrase, he would no doubt have quoted Jesus as saying, "Before Abraham was, ho on." But he did not. Instead, he quoted Jesus as saying, "Before Abraham was, ego eimi." Readers of his Greek manuscript, then, would have seen that Jesus' statement in John 8:58 is different from God's statement in Exodus 3: 15. And this, of course, is what the author ofthe fourth Gospel intended.
Furthermore, the Syriac Peshitta version ofthe Bible, one of the old versions of the Bible, reads in John8:58, "Before Abraham was, I was. " Was this changed from what the author wrote? How can we know? Suppose this was the original phrase, then those who rest their case on the common rendering will be disappointed on the Day of Judgment. Why not rest our case on a much more plain verse of the Bible - one in which Jesus clearly differentiates between himself and God? Take this one for example, where Jesus says to his enemies: You are determined to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God" (John 8:40). Who is Jesus then? A man who told the truth which he heard from God. In other words, he was a messenger of God. When a clear statement like this is issued from the lips of Jesus, why wrangle with the passages that are not so clear, and try to twist them to mean the opposite of what Jesus has been saying in other clear verses all along?
Anyone who wishes to convince himself/herself that Jesus is God should look for clear evidence in the Bible to show that Jesus is God. But the clear evidence is to the contrary. The Bible teaches again and again that Jesus is not God, but a Servant of God (e.g. Matthew 12:18).
In the very next chapter of John, chapter 9, v.35, Jesus declares that he is the son of man (RSV). And anyone who knows the Bible as the Israelites to whom Jesus spoke will know that a son of man cannot be God. The Bible declares that God is neither a man nor a son of man (Numbers 23: 19). How can he be called clean that is born of a woman? Behold even the moon , and it shineth not: yea, the stars are not pure in his sight . How much is man, that is a worm? and the son of man , which is a worm? Gob 25:4-6)

The Qur’an mentions Chapter 3 verse 45"Behold! The angels said: O Mary! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a Word from Him: his name will be Christ Jesus. The son of Mary, held in honour in this world and the Hereafter and of (the company of) those Nearest to Allah.
Jesus (pbuh) is referred in the Qur’an as a word from Allah and not as ‘the word of Allah’.
"A word" of Allah means a message of Allah. If a person is referred to as "a word" from Allah, it means that he is a Messenger or a Prophet of Allah.

its so painful to know tjat most followers of this man called mohammed are block headed! How many people can come out openly in the biblical or quranic history to claim that he existed before abraham? Isn't that enough to show the divinity of such a person? Even your Mohammed cant!!! I know u are an english language scholar! I don c u!!!!! But next tym, think before typing!!!

there is a comprehensive reply on this by Dr Zakir Naik. even though this issue has been trashed severally but for the sake of new nlanders and guests, i would address this again

THE TITLE OF A PROPHET (PBUH) DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT EXCLUSIVELY BELONGS TO THAT PROPHET (PBUH)
Different titles are given to different prophets (pbut). Whenever a title is given to a prophet (pbuh), it does not necessarily mean that the other prophets do not have the same characteristic or quality. For e.g. Prophet Abraham (pbuh) is referred to in the Qur’an as Khaleelullah, a friend of Allah. This does not indicate that all the other Prophets (pbuh) were not the friends of Allah. Prophet Moses (pbuh) is referred to in the Qur’an as Kaleemullah, indicating that God spoke to him. This does not mean that God did not speak to others. Similarly when Jesus (pbuh) is referred to in the Qur’an as Kalimatullah, "a word from Allah", it does not mean that the other Prophets were not "the word," of Allah.

3.
JOHN THE BAPTIST (PBUH) IS ALSO CALLED "A WORD" OF ALLAH
Yahya (pbuh) i.e. John the Baptist (pbuh) is also referred to in the Qur’an as Kalimatullah i.e. a word of Allah in Surah Ali ‘Imran, Chapter 3, verses 38-39
"There did Zakariya Pray to his Lord, saying: "O my Lord! Grant unto me from Thee a progeny that is pure: for Thou art He that heareth prayer!
While he was standing in prayer in the chamber, the angels called unto him: "Allah doth give thee glad tidings of Yahya, witnessing the truth of a Word from Allah, and (be besides) noble, chaste, and a Prophet – of the (goodly) company of the righteous." [Al-Qur’an 3:39]

4.
JESUS (PBUH) REFERRED AS RUHULLAH – A SPIRIT OF ALLAH
Jesus (pbuh) also never referred to as Ruhullah "a spirit of Allah" but as a spirit from Allah in Surah Nisa Chapter 4 verse 171 "O People of the Book! Commit no excesses in your religion: nor say of Allah aught but the truth. Jesus Christ the son of Mary was (no more than) a Messenger of Allah, And His Word, which He bestowed on Mary, and a Spirit proceeding from Him: so believe in Allah and His Messengers. Say not ‘Trinity’: desist: it will be better for you: for Allah is One God: glory be to Him: (Far Exalted is He) above having a son. To Him belong all things in the heavens and on earth. And enough is Allah as a Disposer of affairs." [Al-Qur’an 4:171]

5.
SPIRIT OF ALLAH IS BREATHED IN EVERY HUMAN BEING
A spirit from Allah does not indicate that Jesus (pbuh) is God. The Qur’an mentions in several places that Allah breathed into the human beings "His Spirit" in Surah Al-Hijr, chapter 15 verse 29 in Surah Sajdah, chapter 32 verse 9
"When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him." [Al-Qur’an 15:29]
"But He fashioned him in due proportion, and breathed into him something of His spirit. And He gave you (the faculties of) hearing and sight and feeling (and understanding): little thanks do ye give!"
[Al-Qur’an 32:9]

STORY STORY!!! ONCE UPON A TIME!!! TIME TIME!!!

Moreover! Who's is saying that Jesus is the son of God! I don't have the tym to proove that to you now, all I said in my post was that JESUS himsef is LORD going by the quranic and biblical decription of him as the word of God from where I infered that God created the world by the word and Jesus being the word is authomatically the creator AKA God!!! Get that first into your block head b4 any further explanation!

Abdusamlam40! Are u suffering from cataract? What other way do you want to use in translating this;THE WORD OF GOD (Kalimatullah)

    Jesus is also called "His word" in Surah 4:171, meaning the Word of God. In Surah 3:45 we also read that the angels said to Mary "Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a word from Him, whose name is the Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary". More than once in the Qur'an, therefore, Jesus is called God's Word. Or , was mohammed sleeping when he documented this?

Abdusalam20! What are you trying to say? Dat am wrong? Didn't the holy quran call Jesus the word? Go back and read my former post and study your quran! After this, come back and talk.

You muslims should stop argueing a clear point! Jesus is clearly God! Your quran clearly acknowledged him as the word of God. How then did God create the world? Its through his word! The question now is ; is d word a creation or a creator! The word is the CREATOR ! Meaning: Jesus is the creator and obviously the LORD of all! Chikena!!!!

Yeeeeeeeeeeee! Dis is coooooool! I love this stadium die! I just hope the first official match of d super eagles there will be victory 4 us!!! Correct!!!!
