cleric: I know of someone who was born on 26 February, 1979 . A day where there was a total eclipse of the sun.

That is the Anti-Christ. Total Eclipse of the Sun? Ha! He doesn't like light; he loves darkness.

teeboss: But March 2, 1942 is a Monday Sir

You see, this is the kind of person an MOG does not like; a person that goes around to verify facts. Who asked you to check which day it was? You need to mind your business. By the way, your post seems to be the first I have ever "liked" on Nairaland.

Now, let me help my Christian brethren find the usual escape route when they find themselves in this kind of corner: muddle up the puddle!

It was Sunday/Monday! The mother went into labor overnight Sunday and delivered on Monday!

So, what was el Rufai's motive for painting Anambra in the borrowed robes of poverty? There are those who feel that he saw the NBS figures and decided it offered the opportunity to "retaliate" on former Central Bank Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo's assertion that poverty is "a northern phenomenon", as justified not just by the NBS's figures alone. He probably used Anambra to "fight back" but unfortunately for him, he failed to make his point stick, as his conclusions flew in the face of real life evidence.

Some even say el Rufai decided to call Anambra dirty names because his party, the CPC, failed woefully not just in Anambra State but also the entire South East, South-South, North Central and most parts of the upper north.

Poverty is everywhere in Nigeria, Anambra and the South East inclusive. But for el Rufai to go on a binge about poverty in Anambra State when his own part of the country is the dirt poorest amounts to pointing to a speck in someone's eye while ignoring the log of wood in his. The altruism of motive was not convincing. And for me, the charge of "misplaced priorities" fell flat.

That's all I could pick from the article: it was nothing but an attack or refutation of el Rufai's claim. No single stat was provided; just a long ramble against el Rufai. Is this all you have?

babyosisi: Same Naija stats.pick your choose


From the poverty guru himself

Where are the stats? What was the sample size? I just see a jumble of words. Not a single figure.

Aussie: I can never and will never deviate from the way i was brought up; The God-fearing way.

Good for you. Now put your weapon where your mouth is and mount a Holy War. I assure you of my support. FULL support.

By the way I appreciate why your infection (from the zombie bite) is still fresh; if we trace your genealogy, the first Christian in your family can't be beyond the 4th or 5th generation. Those who got bitten over 1000 years ago are already cured as the infection got weaker and weaker. Most of them are completely cured now. Go to Europe and see for yourself.

[quote author=Switness .A.]Wat happens to states like, kogi, benue, enugu...e.t.c[/quote]They didn't make the cut of states; they've been relegated to satellite states.

plaetton: Zombie Africans and their curses. the European kidnapped and enslaved about 20 million of your kin for profit. God forgot to curse them. The same Europeans murdered 10 miilion jews(god's chosen people) in the early part of the last century. God still forgot to curse them .
And now, I stand to be cursed by your god for shouting "Thief thief" to a thief.

Na wa for your moral schizophrenia.

Haba, but God blessed Europeans for bringing salvation to our land; and zombifying the entire populace. Speaking of curses, I don't know which is a bigger curse: to get attacked by these zombies, or to be a zombie.

dayokanu: In terms of Poverty Lagos, Osun and Ondo have Poverty under 50%

But dude, those poverty rates across board tell an alarming story (which of course we are aware of as a result of anecdotal evidence such as high crime rates and poor people we see around, beggars etc). The US or Europe would've collapsed with an average poverty rate of 30%. I bet ya.

[quote author=c.fours]the funniest thing is how ibo states seem to be most dependent on FG.
this is the case where reality doesn't match words.
most of them will be first to create threads upon threads on how they are being "ignored" by the FG. so that is their strategy hehn. they really hide it wellthough. who would have thought.
the yoruba states that are least dependent on FG. hausa states seem to lean toward independence as well.[/quote]Oh, maybe that's why they keep hoping to have an Igbo President. Hopefully he will bring the Magic Wand that will turn all Igbos into millionaires.

kacheezy: A tiger in the midst of sheep...what manner of shepherd is this charlatan?

ROTF. Iyen ni pe, sheep don r'ogo! (Translation in pidgin: na im be say, sheep don enter one chance).

Aussie: Posts that spites religion, whether Islam or Christianity shuld never have made it to the front page. Three people are incuring curses here, the OP, the Moderator and founder of this site. This shuld be discouraged in its entirety. But i hope and pray the Lord forgives and saves the OP.

How about you mount a Holy War (Jihad or Crusade)? I will be right behind you in support.

femi2131: Be careful with the way you talk to man of GOD..I believe you are not a christian Ãήϑ show me any of your imam dat is worth to clean pastor adeboye's shoe..no one of them..don't let us turn this thread to religion battle field..try to think like human...bokohamic mind

Question is, why do you think the OP is a MUSLIM? Are you still in Primary School (with 3 religions: Christianity, Islam and Paganism)?

plaetton: Excellent.
This is part of what the post tried to highlight: The narcisistic and despotic tendencies that are the natural outcomes of, and flows with, corruptly acquired affluence.

Every known despot tries, at one time or another to deify themselves by adding mystery and miracle to the circumstances of their birth or early childhood.
This particular despot and imperial ruler of the break-away civilisation known as redeemers, a.ka. the land of MORONICA, is just borrowing a leaf from other despots and bogey men before him.

Hmm. Reminiscent of Hitler.

[quote author=#80million]*speechless*

Yet another thread again to spite a globally respected Clergy man and Christians.

OP,i don't know what your motives are,and i don't care. But you need to get a life. He told his story,how is that ur headache?

In this life and in ur next life,u can never match the impact this Adeboye man has achieved. Do u knw how many lives he has touched,and how many souls he has blessed.

U need to be careful and prayerful to give ur life a meaning and DO NOT incur God's wrath on ur generation yet unborn.

I am proud to be a Christian,and to be a saved by Grace.

#80million.[/quote]80 million demons or what? No be 1000 dem call Legion? Wetin dem go come call una? Maybe that's why you are always speechless before you suddenly recover and spew the kind of balderdash above.

FreeGlobe: by the way, yes, they say a one eyed man is king in the land of the blind and so with this gutter stats, the almajiris in Niger State are rich by Nigerian standards. don't shift the goal post next time

I actually laughed when I read this rambling with the "cool" emoticon at the end. It's like a mad-man wearing sunshades.

Engineer96: It is absurd that the north after ruling the country for over four decades still rate highest in poverty level in Nigeria.

Maybe that's for you to realize that simply because the president comes from your zone doesn't necessarily translate into wealth suddenly jumping into that zone.

FreeGlobe: the almajiris are extremely rich

So "poverty rate of 33.8 per cent" implies almajiris are rich where you come from? No wonder you got banned. I bet you spend long spells in jail because you'll just do stu.pid things that will get you jailed. You are too stu.pid.

FreeGlobe: am already stressing my brain trying to figure it out.

Say no more, and stress no more. Just donate your brain right away for surgeons to study what a m0ron's brain looks like.

all4naija: I don't get it!

Ain't you the one arguing about IQ some months back? I actually thought you were smarter. The only way Niger State Government being the poorest in Nigeria can imply that Niger residents are also the poorest is if the residents go to the Government House to line up to get paid. Niger State Government is like a person on its own and has its own purse. So when a state is called "poor", it is the purse of the state we refer to; not the people living in it. Mexico is a poor nation (here referring to the purse of the Mexican government and not the citizens); yet had the richest man in the world at one time. Will you say because the richest man in the world lived in Mexico, then Mexico was the richest country in the world? Please if you still don't get it, you will never get it.

babyosisi: According to the same man o
Niger state was the poorest in feb 2012 and by The end of 2012 they had become the least poor.

How does one educate an ignoramus like this one?

OK, Niger State is the poorest IS NOT the same as Niger State residents are the poorest. There is such a thing as the Niger State Government. When they say Niger State is poor, they refer to the government, not the people living in Niger State. When they say Niger State has the lowest poverty rate, they refer to the residents of Niger State; not the Niger State Government. Dummy.

babyosisi: Niger Osun and Ondo with the least poverty rate also happen to be unhealthy states money wise according to the same Nigeria o
Kai
I love my country

Are you educated at all? Do states disburse money to their indigenes or what has the economy of a state got to do with the economy of individuals within the state? Once again, do states share money; tell us if that what your own state does o.

vizboy: and with all that did he win the cL. Am not a chealsea fan but i feel drogba will be better off with that award

Well, Drogba wasn't even in the final 3! I wanted Drogba too, but hey, definitely Messi any day ahead of C Ronaldo.

futoprince: This means that more than 40 percent of the employed also live in poverty. This is ridiculous to say the list.

Um, so the millions being paid less than 10,000 a month, do you consider them above the poverty line? What is your definition of "poverty"?

dayokanu: I am getting feelers only extreme ignoramuses support La liga

EPL you mean.

dayokanu: Schuster and Capello already truncated the barca dominance. When they both denied Barca the league. So why would they need to do that again

The funny thing is, neither of those guys would have given a thought to coaching a club in the English League before or shortly after it became EPL. It's only recently circa (2000) that the league actually caught the fancy of who-is-who in European football.

dayokanu: You mean TERRY BUTCHER?

Yeah, it's him. Check this:

Just four minutes after the ''Hand of God'' goal, however, came ''The Goal of the Century'', so called because it is often claimed to be the greatest individual goal of all time. Héctor Enrique passed the ball to Maradona some ten metres inside his own half. Maradona then began his 60-metre, 10-second dash towards the English goal, passing four English outfield players – Peter Beardsley, Peter Reid, Terry Butcher (twice) and Terry Fenwick. Maradona finished the move by dribbling round Peter Shilton and slotting into the net to make the score 2–0 to Argentina.

dayokanu: You mean TERRY BUTCHER?

Lol. Must be him. See name sef: Butcher. You go fear nah! Still na Maradona butcher am. English players (and the EPL) are overhyped.

chic2pimp: What crappy head to head are u on about?
You call 3 vs 1 head to head?
Check out his performances in the opening game vs spain to see that was indeed a bad performance ina single game

Lol. You blame the 3 for being in the same team? That's the whole point. Also mind you, Pirlo is an attacking midfielder; so he could only be contending with Iniesta.

dopeJemi: Even if man city or PSG gives Messi a cheque of 300milLion dolLars, He won't Go cuz He knows where He wilL shine(La Liga)


AlL dose mumu La Liga defenders wen dey do ajebutter 4 fieLd


Make Messi Meet peopLe Like Barton,Richards,Parker,shawcross,coLoccini etc

He go know say epL no be bread n butter

I remember when Maradona came up against England in 86 WC. Then England had the "best defender in the world"; I forgot his name. He was expected to stop Maradona; only for him to be left for dead TWICE in the slalom leading to the best world cup goal in history. All those you mentioned would just allow Messi to score the best goal in EPL history. Messi has faced harder defenders like Pepe and Sergio Ramos and left them eating grass.

dopeJemi: , dey r d ones creating passes 4 Messi

Can you tell us how many assists Xavi & Iniesta (or anybody for that matter) created for Messi last year? Just admit you never watch Barca games. They just tell you what happened.

deeplow: When u watch La liga matches(as someone with a lil football talent),u tend to think football is easy and you can do what these players are doing.if u'd be honest,u'd agree with me that la liga can't compare with the Epl in terms of defending.As someone had earler written,it is quite true that most Epl teams don't put too much energy into the europa league.the other "big" la liga teams know the europa league is the only available silverware for them,dats why they tend to perform better.

Did you see how that foolish theory was refuted? It's not true English clubs don't put much energy when they play in the Europa league. Just read the refutations yourself. I don't need to list them here.

chic2pimp: What rubbish are you spewing here. So pirlo underperforming in the finals means he did not have a better season overall than at least 2 of those midfielders yes?

Let me take u back to 2010 for a second. Did Messi's atrocious performance in the quarterfinals against a much inferior German team stop him from landing the ballon dor?

Lastly lest we 4get the huge difference in quality of the two mid fields on display that evening.

You are the one spewing rubbish here. There's something they call head to head and it's a good way of knowing who's better. When Pirlo went head to head against his rivals he was silent while they performed. This was not about a bad performance in a single game.
