I really want that man removed without further delay. But the problem is that the lower house may succeed in doing that today because the democrats have the majority there. But in the Senate, it will be a very tall order because the Republicans are the majority. So when it gets to their turn by January, they may upturn whatever that is happening today.

As for your statement, you are correct, it's actually by simple majority.

Correct, the Senate will acquit him of all the charges, because they need 2/3rd majority in the Senate to convict him.

But, the truth is; Trump does not want to be impeached. During the campaign he insulted Bill Clinton for been impeached, now he will enter into the history books as the third US President to be impeached and just like Clinton, whenever his impeachment comes up, people remember his affair with moniker despite his denial....

So with Trump, he will be known as the US President that was impeached for soliciting foreign help in US Election, all other counter arguments will not survive the test of history, hence he is seriously angry about the impeachment.

"Are the majority of Americans is support this government? 2020 will tell."

The above is what I wrote initially. To think I would explain this simple statement to you TWICE is really worrying.

2016, Trump was just a candidate and had no government for the people to support.

2020 will be a referendum on his government, and if he wins it, it means majority of the Americans support him, despite the charade impeachment.

Trump does not need popular votes concocted by CNN to win, he needs the majority of the electoral college. Would he also loved to win the popular votes? From what I've read and watched about him, yes he would. But he planned his elections, and went for swing states. He even won historically democratic states.

And to think you even opined that I was a kid! I'm no longer angry so I'm more civil this time around.

Yes, electors vote for the President, but you are wrong to equate that as majority of Americans.

In 2016, Trump won the electoral college vote, but majority of Americans voted against him.

Agreed, he might rewin again in 2020; but if you look at the mid term elections that historically favor Republicans, the Democrats won lots of districts carried by Trump. If the turn out in 2020 is big and in steps with the mid term 2020 elections, Trump will lose.... but he have the power of the incumbency and historically, it is very difficult to defeat an incumbent US President.

Blindersoff:
As votes are being taken today to see if Donald Trump would be impeached or not, It is looking very intriguing.

Incidentally America overwhelmingly voted for a Democratically controlled House in 2018. To be a check on Trump was one of the reasons. So as it stands there are more democrats in the house than Republicans.

So far 182 democrats have voted in support of Trumps impeachment while 158 republicans have voted Nay with less than 7 minutes to the end of the votes.

OP....

That is not the vote for impeachment, the impeachment debates are still going on, the vote will come later.

That vote you were referring to, was the vote to adopt the rules guiding the impeachment...that vote passed.

ghettokid1:
Only 2/3 members can impeach him. God is answering prayers so far

Not true, you only need a simple majority to impeach.

I Googled Mercedes GLA 2021 yesterday, but still riding my Toyota, 2012.
I think its normal, to learn about your dreams, before you get it.

Agreed, but it is also important to cut your clothe according to your size and be realistic....as in, you would have searched for Toyota 2013 to 2015 as that was a more realistic goal and you would have learned more valuable insights that would help in your next upgrade.

Since you have search for your dream car Mercedes GLA 2021, what next? Are you now going to search for Mercedes GLA 2022 next year to keep the dream alive?

Sometimes, most us thinks that Church is a social gathering where we do all nonsense because we want to trend. Hard it been that the guy did it quietly before the alter of God or before the pastor, the pastor will not object but trying that nonsense in someone's weeding because of publicity, call for concern if the pastor don't want the church to turn to a playground

The bride and groom were in the know and did not object; in fact the bride is a senior sister to the girl that was proposed to....naturally, I think she will be over joy that her younger sister got proposed to on her wedding day, rather than getting mad that someone is stealing her show.

Lastly, church wedding is also a publicity and a trending thing.....my point is, both fall short if you measure them with the same yardstick and am not oppose to either one and does not see anything sinful in either.

lexy2014:
4u to say that I am a "hypocrite" and "that I don't no my Bible", is more or less an emotional outburst cos I don't see how that comment is relevant to d discussion. This is a harmless conversation about a very simple matter but I am surprised at ur unprovoked personal attack & use of foul language even in a so called biblical conversation.

If u didn't agree with what I said, it wouldn't cost u anything to point out d errors in my comment without resorting to personal attacks. Ur use of d type of language u use doesn't in anyway validate what u said. What validates what u said are ur facts.

In relation to my comment, if u noticed, I picked out d point u made about Eli. That point was erroneous & I did justice (without calling u names) by telling u that his docility wasn't a virtue according to scriptures. So I fail to see how that warrants u spilling ur emotions.

You must have taken it personal, but my reference to 'hypocrite' was made in the third person and also conditional depending on that individual beliefs. I see where it might have offended you, and for that I render my apologies.

Back to the substance....I do not think, your reference to Eli as docile as accurate. The bible records stated that, when he heard of the evils that his sons were doing, he called them and rebuked them and they did not listen to him.

Remember that, the bible said, his sons were evil and wicked, so it appear that Eli would not had succeeded. Plus at this time, the bible indicated that, Eli was old and frail.

soulpeppersoup:
The church is not a place for such there are one thousand and one places he should have done that.

What do you think will be the news if the break up tomorrow?

The church should be wise now that there are constantly under attack.

This is pure wisdom from the man of God. Tomorrow no one will drag the name of the church in the mud should they choose to misbehave.

Kudos to the pastor.

When you say, "The church is not a place for such....." what do you mean?

Are you aware that proposing to your intended bride is biblical? Right from the old testament to the New Testament; Jews and then Christians proposed to their bride...even Joseph proposed to Mary; so we have biblical example, backing and practice of proposal...but there is no single example, scriptural backing or practice about church wedding.

As Christians, are you saying that since we now know that, not only that there is nothing wrong or sinful about proposing to one's bride but there are scriptural backings for it, it is wrong to do it in the Church?

I can't believe you cited a possible 'break up' of the courtship as one of your reasons; what about marriages? Don't they break up? The truth is, a marriage break up is more of a source of embarrassment to a church compare to a courtship breakup.

snowblaq:
You mean the same Eli that didn't check what his sons were doing in the house of God and God punished him seriously for their stupidity?

The Bible said, Hophni and Phinehas were wicked and stubborn, if you read the Bible again, when El heard of what they were doing, he called them and rebuked them, also note that at this time, Eli was old and fray.

It is not true to assume that, Eli condoled what his sons were doing, so turned a blind eye; the Bible account states he acted....but his sons did not listen to him because they were evil and wicked.

anochuko01:
So it's proposing in church that now has scriptural backing or examples?

What has happened to modesty and moderation?

The guy isn't a good example of a wise husband. Na the girl i just pity....

What's the wisdom that can be gotten from public proposal asides the show off?

He's there claiming to propose in the presence of God. But the truth is that No true "spiritual" person would perform that nonsense he did. No!

Na carnality dey worry am.
He simply doesn't regard authority, elders and the shepherd God has placed over that assembly, and it can be deciphered from this his reaction.

That was how a "brother" organized birthday in the fellowship Secretariat back in school without informing the excos. Even the number one of a cult group was there drinking alcohol. Inside fellowship Lodge o....I was on my way to inform DSA before some people pleaded.

No sane leader would permit anyhow habit in his circle.

Carry your nonsense outside or seek permission. That's how you show regards to elders and organizations.

So you thing the guy that did the Church wedding is a good example of a wise husband, since you have adjudged the other guy unwise, what is your baseline and barometer?

There is nothing spiritual about wedding, they are all for the publicity...the sparkling immaculate white dress, the diamond ring, the suite, the shinning shoes, the flowers, etc. I will equally say, no spiritual person will do a church wedding, if you think church proposal is carnal.

I thought the church belong to God and Jesus comes for even sinners; why do you think he must seek the permission of the elders before entering the house of the Lord and propose in His presence? Unless you think the mere act of proposing to a lady is sinful, you are the one projecting carnality into it and it is surprising you do not see carnality in the Church wedding, which have carnality in full display.

lexy2014:
Eli didn't poke his nose in anybody's business including that of his sons who were desecrating d temple of God by sleeping with women in d temple. He paid dearly for it

If you are a scriptural based christian and judges things based on the scriptural examples and principles; am hard pressed to see how you will view proposing to a lady in the Church desecrating the temple of God, whereas wedding a lady in the Church is not?

Both practices are foreign to Christianity and was never practiced by early believers; as much as I do not condemn Church wedding, I think you are an hypocrite or does not know your Bible too well, if you approve of Church wedding and call proposing in the Church something evil.

Xano:
Be careful what you say or type. Weddings were done in Synagogue(a place of worship).

Can you please provide, a chapter and a verse that indicated that Jesus or his disciples or early Christians went to Synagogue to attend or perform a single wedding?

FYI: The wedding in Cana, Galilee was a traditional wedding....am waiting! .....still waiting!! .....ok, let me give you time to finish searching the Bible.

So no remedy brother?

The only remedy is brute force.

Use the principal of the guilty conscience always fears against him and the fact that, he has switched off his phone and probably on the run is a good sign in your favor, innocent people don’t fold up and run in the face of accusation of wrong doing.

Depending on your location; arm yourself with between 10-30k, approach the nearest police state and lodge the complaint against him.

Once they fetch him out and lock him up and with some brute force applied, he will confess....but that does not mean you will see any kobo, but it is a better situation. However, if he is a hardcore criminal, he may not fess up; but at least you tried.

atiku4President:
It will be a waste of time to respond to your life of emptiness.

It takes one experiencing an empty life to project their emptiness and assume that, every other person is as empty and shallow as they are feeling & experiencing.

Enjoy your empty rhetorics void of any scriptural backings or examples.

atiku4President:
That's insubordination if either you or your would- be wife is a member of the Church. Even if none of you are, you think the house of God is a place to do a thing like that without the consent of the man overseeing the affairs of the Church. What kind of a generation are we and how do human beings reason these days? How do you see it that you are engaging a sister in a Church where the pastor is not aware of the relationship? You think a Church is a social gathering? Tomorrow if anything happens to the relationship/marriage (but God forbid) social media will say you even got engaged before the Pastor. My friend, humble yourself and appreciate the pastor saved the image of the Church.

Much ado about nothing!

Keep blowing empty air!

There is no scriptural backing or example to the nonsense you just spoil out there, that the Pastor must be in the know!

In fact, there is no scriptural backing or example for church wedding; the Bible only supports traditional wedding & parental consents and guy stated that, the girl’s parents are aware, which is inline with the scriptures.

The Pastor should have removed his over blown ego from the matter, if that was truly a Church, it therefore means that, it belongs to God and not the Pastor and the guy is permitted to do his engagement before God....Eli in the Bible did not poke nose into Samuel’s affairs with God.

In the world today many are carrying sex on their head, some will even go as far as sleeping with hundred's of men or women, why the world have made sex as a second food that nourishes the body as many claims and there are those who don't even care about those things, i hate some things but the one i hate most is to see men's sexual organ it irritates me more than any other thing in world, not to talk of coming close to touch me with it, left for me i have no reason why i should have sex with a man if not for child birth.

Na lie!

You too like preeq, that is why you are having sex, forget all these internet forming.

Because, you don’t need a man to have a baby; go to the nearest sperm donor clinic, you will get a vial full of sperms to inject yourself with in their bathroom or yours at home...and if your timing is right, you will make a baby!

My Sister, na wao for you oh!

It appear that, you are desperate and the only reason you are with him is because, he is the only single guy with no kids, who is showing interest in you or who you have noticed.

The truth is, you should be prepare for more insults, beatings, public embarrassment....forget that ‘he is changing’; a leopard does not change his skin.

He has not paid your bride price, the guy don dey nack you heavy knock wey dey cause headache; wait and see; after him finish paying your bride price, na hammer him go use take to dey knock you.

More so, since Grace want him for herself you better grant her wish. No how no how, if una marry and quarrel, na Grace the guy go take quench him sexual hunger, that is if they are not already into it.

Save yourself the headache, cut loose and run and thank God. What you have seen on a plater of gold, before marriage is what many miserable married women today; fasted, prayed go to vigil paid tithe, first fruit offering, etc for...so, they could see before getting married and they didn’t see.

MrHistorian:
Are Nigerians deliberately dumb or is it just the twitter users?

Being a feminist basically means being an advocate for the belief that women should have the same rights and opportunities as men.

How does the above stop the woman in question from engaging in sexual relationship with men?

The trolling is justified if she's a proven man-hater (misandrist). Even at that, you can't be too sure if the pregnancy wasn't a product of artificial insemination.

But then. . .what do I know!?

I was about writing something exactly like this, until I saw your piece.

Only that, I have to add....even if she is a man-hater, that does not mean she hate preeq or can’t be pregnant for a man. There are men all over who hate women, hit women, etc but still love that stuff underneath their legs & still goes on to impregnate women.

In fact, this part fully back her feminist advocacy, in that...if men can hate women and still love their pvssy and still impregnate them, women also have the right to hate men, but still love their preeq and get pregnant for men.

The only premise when the troll is justified is if; she been an advocate for ‘marriage before pregnancy’ or chastity or if she is against pregnancy completely...then they have a point.

stupid judge, you cannot give inec 48 hrs to issue certificate and issue 48hrs to national assembly to swear him in. what if Inec issues the certificate and 47 hrs 59 minutes?

The order to the Senate is base on INEC having satisfy her obligation and begins after INEC have acted.

INEC can decide not to act and appeal.

When they initially came up with the requirements of BVN, they didn't know that the requirements were hard to meet for many Nigerians

Am confused, what are the ‘hard to meet requirements’ for getting a BVN?

I still can’t outline any, unless maybe access to a Centre to register, but if that is the case; how are they going to register people fir the so-called BVN-Lite?....and wouldn’t they have used the same method to do BVN?

My opinion is, I doubt there is anyone in Nigeria who wants to participate in the banking sector today that the only reason for not doing it is because of their inability to obtain BVN; except off course for fraudulent individuals and those into illegal business.

MycroftHolmes:
Nothing really wrong, since the girl in question is his daughter.

In my opinion, he actually deserves to know about the relationship from its budding stages.

The lady is not his daughter.

He is the Pastor and as you know how things goes in 9ja, they call their Pastors ‘Daddy’ and he calls them my ‘daughter’, ‘son’, etc.

Some Pastors can be overbearing.

You clearly know that, he is not the biological father of the lady.....but, what do you expect, when guys call them ‘Daddy’ & ‘Mommy’; they will enter your life and that controlling it whichever way they choose.

SimpleLuxuries:
We don't need a national database. The government simply needs to upgrade VIOs platform so the systems can talk to each other as against operatingin silos. They also need to do something about the corrupt officers who bypass due process and issue out fake documents.

So, what made you think that, what you have described is not a National database?

National database does not mean that, there will be a database instance in Abuja; you mentioned VIOs, which is a Federal agency and database design these days are distributed and they can be in each regional or State VIO offices or can exist in the cloud or multiple cloud virtual machines; but it is definitely not going to be a single database residing in Abuja or somewhere, that is old design that does not scale, have a single point of failure and have many bottlenecks.

I do not know if you know how DNS database works, they are distributed and are in hierarchy and operates on write once, read many principle; this can made to function like that; the whole essence of it been National is such that; each point of a read operation be it a state, local VIO office, officer or any agency to have access to records of all vehicles in the Nation.

Blue3k:
I dont think this true. The USA doesn't have a national vehicle registration yet this isnt an issue. A car thief would have to provide ownership information before registering car in snother state anyway. Lastly you would check the vin number to see if car stolen.

Not totally true though.

In the US, each state have a vehicle database; and one state can pull the database of the other, making it essentially a complete database of vehicle ownership in the US, which is the same as a national database.

These vehicle ownership documents can be forged to perfection in Nigeria or a database that is not limited within each state is needed.

Finally, your last statement even negate your entire argument; if there is no national database where will one check the VIN for ownership information across state boundaries?

See the question one of our so called leaders of tomorrow woke up to ask.

I blame you, who assumed that every Tom, Dick & Harry is a leader. If everyone is a leader, who then will be led?

If everyone is rich, successful & intelligent; then these attributes will loss their values and become worthless, because there will be no baseline for measurement, evaluation & standardization.
