TOMOROW, IT WILL BE YOU
www.nairaland.com/2462086/soberreflections-tomorrow-it

Generally in life, we tend to make the sign of the cross, thank God for our good luck and move on, when we see our friends or neighbours suffering one mishap or the other,
We go on saying things like, "thank God say no be me oo" "that is his own cup of tea" "i better mind my business " and others.

A typical instance of this could be found not far off. In Oron where i stay, we were always celebrating the Militants when they were busy attacking the Foreign workers, Up north, we all saw how most of the muslims were acting all "tank God its not us " when boko haram began its insurgence. And it could be traced back in history how the non-jews were saying "thank God am not a jew" when hitler began his madnes.

But the fact remains, that when the enemy is done with our neighbors, it would most definitely turn on us. Yes because, when the Militants were done attacking expatriates they turned on the traders using the sees,.when boko haram was done destroying most churches in the north, it turned on the Mosques and the Muslims praying therein, when Hitler was done killing the jews, he turned on non-jews and thereafter the whole world.

Therefore, the truth remains, that your neigbour may be unlucky that he is robbed today, but know that when thieve is done with the money, and in need for another, he would turn on you. Do nt think your neigbour's daughter is a LovePeddler, hence her being raped, because Tomorow, the rapist might be on high libido and your 14year old daughter is all that is left around to calm him,

So therefore, it is left for us to see any attack on our friend, as an attack on us, any attack on our neighbours daughter as a likely attack on our sweet daughter, tomorrow, hence we are to walk together to end this,
because if we wait for it to come on us tomorrow, before we act, then we would be alone, and defenceless against it, as against us standing with our friends and or neighbour to fight against it today.

So when next a lecturer victimises your mate, join force with your mate to get him disciplined, when a bully is there picking on the litle guy, stand with the guy, and stand up to him, when the right of a fellow citizen is to be trampled on, join voice with his and cry out, because if we waite for it to get to us before we act, the thing would have garnered enough confidence from ridding crushing neighbour 1,2,3.. unabated, and worst we would be alone and too weak to stand against it

When a fowl is eating your friend’s grain, drive it away, for someday it will eat yours.

All through life we have been taught that there is always another side to every story, thus it is a rule of natural justice equity and good conscience that no one should be condemned unheard( Audi alteram patem), even our constitution has given prominence to this hallowed principle in Section 36 that provides, for the right to fair hearing.

Thus after, writing #GEJwhileyouwereaway part1, that mostly dealt with the negative happenings that plagued this Nation, while Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, was away on break, this write up would concentrate on the #PositiveChanges that have swept this Nation while GEJ was away.

#GEJwhileyouwereaway. The PHCN changed from their no light/cigerate voltage current, to the too much/ too high voltage policy.

#GEJwhileyouwereaway. PYO, was able to tour the boko haram hideout in Borno, threaten them into their hiding place in Yola, and he also traveled to the East, west, and commissioned the newly recruited arm forces in a single day, is ex-vice president sambo reading this with you ?

#GEJwhileyouwereaway. The FEC said that you, withdrew $20billion dollar from the excess crude Account(ECA) without their permission.

So what did you think were the positive things that happened, while GEJ was away, please share by posting them

https://letdemknow./2015/07/10/gej-while-you-were-away-part2/

With the growing level of unending drama at the National scene and the continuous slow pace of the present administration, and with the Messianic “turn Nigeria to dubai degree of miracle” that is expected of this administration as a result of its mouth watering promises, the current increase in the spate of attacks by the boko haram sect coupled with the depreciation of the naira from #225 as of the last admin, to #230.

There has been a resultant clamour for action, hence when, the ex President of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, returned, twitter was broken by the #GEJwhileyouwereaway trend, some of the complaint made to GEJ on this present administrations were.

#GEJwhileyouwereaway. Boko Haram started trowing IED’s fireworks in almost every street corners.

Grand rite

So what were the deplorable things that escalated around the country when our dady GEJ went on break Add yours.

tuffgongjo:
Guerrero of Peru was wonderful also.

Guereroo is a complete striker, the guy was jus there, clinical finisher

Jeffboi:
Vagas

hie did I miss Dat /?/ Vargas was also wonderful all through

yha Sanchez was good, Argentina were lucky not to be playing one goal down.

The Balance
The match was balanced for the most part of it, but the Chileans had a little more control of the ball than their Argentine counterparts.

Argentina
Argentina having lost Di Maria who was mostly wonder for the most part of the tournament almost more effective than the magician, having netted a brace in the last game, with the loss of Di Maria, as he hitherto played  wonderful in connecting the midfield with the attackers, with his amazing runs and feeder passes often leave the opponents wanting as the concentration of the defenders on messi often left him a wonderful space to perform his footworks, with these loss, there was no connection, between the mid-fielders as the attackers had to go back to get their balls, and Messi for the most part of the game was mostly over swamped by the Chilean defenders and strikers.
I wouldn't know why on earth the coach had to substitute Aguero for Higuain, because Aguero was a challenge to the defenders while the latter was just not on form for the evening.

Chile: the Chileans were just good, they controlled the ball all through most of the game, Vidal was out of this world, he was out for blood with his fierceness, you could see that the guy wanted to win, and gave his all to achieve, to the extent of limping back to the pitch when he got injured. Sanchez was awesome with the runs he was making, he almost had a goal to his name, if not for some miscalculated steps, but then, nearly can never kill a bird, in all, all the Chileans were out to make their country proud and the gave in their all to achieve it.

Penalties.
Shaaa, penalty is no once brother except for Pirlo, he's the father(lol). The Chileans netted all their spot kicks, while at the other end it was only Messiah that saw his ball going through the goal keeper.
but then ask, the last time the Argentine went for penalty they were mostly taking goal kicks there except for Messi and tevez, Why is it that they didn't correct on their mistakes and had to take the same goal kicks again ? and the worst is that Higuain who was substituted for Aguero was the one that began the loosing streak..
Sanchez's Penalty was so Pirlo_wish in Nature, every body in the room saf back down through the celebrations just to watch the replay of it. tell you what, Arsenal have got a talent.

Take home:
God the fans were woawww, they were all of them waving their country colours from the beginning of match all through 120mins +penalty.. any time the camera turned on the stands it was Red wit strips of black flags waving.. at some point a fellow sitting nearby complained " Which levels, una nor d tire to d wave wave flag from beginning of match to end ?" for my money I suggest Knaan should have shot Dat his "<em><strong>waving flag</strong></em>" video in Chile.
The love those guys have for their country is mad. Playing Knaan's waving flag and waving my Nigerian and an hand drawn Chilean flag. The best team won

Nice piece u got

#But i think moses buhari needs 2 be working with aaron osibanjo or joshua osibanjo

Good talk, I go need Flash Pastor Adeboye make dem quikenly arrange some kind change of name Baptism Sharpenly..... I go give Osibanjo Aaron na either the SSG or AG whr go be Joshua depending on who moral high pass... Lollz

cactuscee:
Lovely piece, very hilarious.
But may I ask how you knew that Moses is not as tall as Buhari . Abi dem born you in 345BC ?

Moses bin dey get high frequency dey Chat wit baba God direct since 345bc. Hw me no go fit folow beg to use one of those heavenly I.T centres the view the recordings of those time....get dia pix do measurement Lolzz

Fact is.... In the Land of Egypt, the isrealites still enjoyed some high level of comforts and luxuries, they only had to work in the pyramids by day and in the nite they could go flexing around eating cucumbers and carrots.....
Hence when Moses saw one of them suffering and solicited to help in defending him, as a kinsman, he got handsomely rewarded by being Demoted from the Palace to the wilderness.. Talk bout change of environment....

Shaa letta on, while enjoying some free time crusing round his new abode, he had some hi-tech clasified communication with God, through the frequency of the burning bush..and thereafter went back to those ungratefull guys to save them...

Though Buhari is probably taller than Moses, speaks hausa while the oda greek, has cow while the other tended sheeps and goats.
In my small mind, i think both share lot of things/trials togeda...

Moses once had to rise to the chalange whrin he earned the wrath of both his people and their Opressors.... Buhari once came into the scene to salvage us and ended up being pursued away both by the people he came to save and their corrupt oppresors.

The thing Is that after the short break Moses came back to complete what he started, buhari also came to complete his own..

Moses's inner-circle comprised of gansters and enemies of the state, even his very own sista, shaa they all had to pay dearly in the end,
Buhari suffers same Predicament here, hence u wud be hearin stufs like same theives, and stufs like "I trust buhari, but not his friends"

U wana know anoda one.....
Moses was not the messiahh.... No, not at all, he was only a leader that arose to shepherd the isrealites to some safe ground while the awaited the messiahh

Buhari is not the messiah, no now, he may hv dat flat tummy Jesus and all, but then with his height, cuttin a cross for him might cause deforestation....
Yess, Jesus his not, but a Leader he is, and he has emerged when we are in dire need to be shepherd frm corruption and its pangs, To lead us to some safe ground while we await the messiahh...

Tragically, Moses neva made it to the promised land, wit buhari's health and all it that too seems feasible, but then there's always an exception to every General rule...
And yes while moses was a bloody civilian fighter... Buhari is a gallant Soldier.... And you know what they say.... "Old Solja Neva Dies" lollz

God bless the FRN
God Bless President Moses Buhari
May he lead us through corruption to our promised land...AMEN

What do you think Folks.

Sumarry

Oron town which happens to be one of the main producer of oil, is strategically located near the in the continental shelf,,it shares border with the both the Atlantic ocean and cameroon,

As a border town its main preoccupation is importing and exporting of commodities between both countries.

Millitants have been harasing traders on the high seas for almost 4 years now, traders all once paid their way to the capital, and there protested in front of the government house for him to end their plight, Godswil promised to do same, but when they leftn their matter left with them

After staying for some more years suffering, they appealed to the fed government, they were guaranteed that the problem would be sorted out, but then when they left, the issue left with them

After coming back to suffer the excesses of the militants amounting to seizing of shiploads of commodities, seizing of boat and boat engine, robbing of passengers etc.

Youths in the region came together and brought out some of their strongest and most courageous to go fight for them since the state and federal govt had left them to suffer and die.

The youths then prepared and left, however, words of their impending exploits was leaked to the the militants who prepared for them.
They fought with their all, however being betrayed, like the 300spartans they had nothing else but to fight to the end which they all knew then might have been inevitable, ensnared and outnumbered they wwre all killed and beheaded.

Nonetheless, the Militants reing continues,

This is an outcry for all well meaning nigerians to join voice to calling the government to look into the matter, let their BLood not be in vain

#SCRIBBLING_WITH_THE_BLOOD_OF_T
HE_SLAIN.
#OrO_NATION_WEEPS as more than 25 able
bodied Youths fall to the sword of #MiliTAnTs


In Esuk Afang (Afang beach) in Esuk Ndek Iyak (fresh fish beach) in Udua Usen Ubok( morning Market) in the streeets, in the whole Oron Nation, one can hear nothing but nonstop wailing, even in the Crack/weed joint, the silence is deafening, one cannot but here the silent defeaning mourning muffed up cries, as the youths mourn their comrades, the Mothers are crying for their sons, the fathers silently mourning their inheritors, and the Youths are left hearbroken, These Blood will never stop wailing, Noooo, it won't.

Oron town a region of Akwa ibom state, because of its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean ranks with its oil rich land, ranks as one of the greatest contributers to the NAtional revenue, as a border town (Nigeria and Cameroon) its citizens wadle to and fro cameroon via the boundless atlantic Ocean, in search of their daily bread.

however, it was only the bad roads and the hike in transportation cost that traders had to contend with, but 3, 4 years ago the Militants left the terrorising of expatriates at the creeks, and came to terrorise the poor petty traders who risk the boundless length of the Atlantic, not for wealth acquisition but just enough to feed self and family.
At first, they robed whole ship of the assortments of imports amounting to millions, there after because of being unable to sell off, the took to robbing the traders of the money meant for procurement of their commodity, ( because of the strigent requirement for opening accounts in cameroon, traders couldn't travel light) there after they Militants had a shortie on land which every ship had to pay #150,000 before it could trade on the water..

This eventually led to the traders sending emissaries to the Governors Office to come to their aid, like always the Govt promised to look into it, by probably setting a committee to the effect, The militant however, got whim of the appeal and increased their toll to 200k, but yet the government did nothing. And appeal to the president reportedly suffered the same fate.

However after suffering under the hands of this militant for years unending, some able bodied youth, youth with valour, youth with fearles courage, came together, reportedly more than 30 of them, came to try their best in alleviatinng the plight of their suffering parent.. Since the Government has left us to suffer and die in the hands of this militants, we. Could as well die fighting, rather than suffer and die in silence.


They all left together, scarcely armed to confront the Militants, the monstrosity, that have been pillaging the Economy of their home for long, bringing it almost to a stand still, they left barely Armed, barely prepared... The left and sojourned into the sea, into the Atlantic to confront the krackan, to confront the Leviathan monster in its lair.....

However, unknown to these Gallant youths, Unknown to these men of pure valor, a judas had gone off to tell on them to the jews, unknown to them, Ephialtes Had told of their Leonidas hearted Oronian led 25 to the Persian(militants).
Hence, the militant ensnared and trapped them, and Since its the open Ocean we are talking about here, no road to run, no hill or mountain to lie concealed, no bush to hide.
The Oro Men of valor fought bravely to the bitter end.
Their decapitated mutilated bodies, were there after brought to land, to the cries and wails of the whole Oro Nation, ,to this moment, the town mourns on.the were the Bravest, they were the strongest, and they were all men of valor,

I may not have the gun, nor the ammunition nor the jazz, but I have my #quil and my #ink_bottle.. And I will mount my battle from here... The Govt left us to fight, if we can't win against these insurgence, we are so going to be turning back to them... Only this time, the have the blood of this time, we are writing to them with the blood of our fallen heroes... And we would fight to the end.. #ORo_Afang_ki #Oro_Liberatio_Front #stop_the_Marginalization

this article was tailored, to with the #sayNotoRape campaign by the LASU Lady,

The thing was that I sort to join my voice to hers in campaigning in churches were the Rapist and the Raped go to worship each sunday, I wanted to take my own campaing to Nollywood where they continually tell us that when a lady says no she means yes,
I wanted to take my own campaign against rape to the court rooms where the opposing counsel would always use the cross examination as a tool of making the girls private life a public cenema,

And finaly I wanted to take my campaign to the girls dressing room where they were cloths that seem to be pinning Targets on their back to all Rapist,

And yess, so long we rose together against Ebola and we conquered it, I believe in #ThePowerOFNigeria that if we rise up collectivly against this monstrosity, its rising Prevalence would be greatly reduced, and our daughters, sisters, cousins would be free to walk our street without having to look behind their backs after each 2 steps #sayNOtoRAPE

Cc Lalasticala fp pls

[quote author=Raymondenyi post=34041824]My brother in as much as i understand the enormity of rape on the female psych, i think it is very crude, and uncouth for you, to come here and justify a lady hiding in her shelf and not giving relevant information to the authorities to put those monsters in the he'll hole they should be...... have u ever heard of "court sittings in camera" ? You should under no circumstance admonish a woman to hide and swallow cases of rape because of irrelevant public opinions , that is an impropriety that knows no bounds....


You got me wrong, I was only trying to paint the picture of what it takes to get some1 to be convicted of rape, am only advocating that we as a society rise up together against it, rather than leaving it to the victim and the court to bear.

And also my reference to the strenouus court procedure was to advocate for a situation where the victim could be shielded by the court from answering some questiions....

Rape by itself is the highest disecration a human person can experience, I know for guys the picture is hard to comprehend, but with the current prevalence of Homo sexuality, just imagine being overpowered by a fellow stronger man, and feeling ‪#‎ TotallyHelpless ‬while he desecrates you, and you would just get a glimpse of what it feels like for our ladies.

And you know what's ‪#‎ worst‬
Its the fact that after that felling of totall helplessness, after having cried your heart out while he took away your clothes, while he took away your power, while he took away your virginity. ‪#‎ You_cant_do_any thing‬, because the strigent process laid down in Sectio 357 of the Criminal code makes the prove of actual penetration and lack of consent so onerous since being a criminal charge the burden is beyond reasonable doubt.

And you know what's ‪#‎ Worser‬(diction) than the #Worst Its the cross examination, and by God I won't for anything, like any of my relative to Undergo the rigours of a Cross examination, for the offence of rape, because, not only would the opposing cousel be imputing your consent based on the most frivolous of fact(like because you answered his heloo); your ‪#‎ Private_life‬, your ‪#‎ sexual_life‬and ‪#‎ your_entire_lif e‬would all be brought to the fore, for the entire world to see, you have to see the victim crying while begging the judge that she needs not answer that to understand.

You only need to see how psychologically, emotionally, and spiritually damaged the victims of this act feel, most of them keep it as a secret which they carry to their grave, most of them get married but since they can't bring themselves to tell their husband, feel guilty for the rest of their married life, the worst hit are the prior Emotionally weak victim, the thing eats them up from within they get depressed, hate life, distrust people and most end up destroying themselves, either to drugs, or in some cases walking the plank.

Hence, As Pastors in Churches, we all have to reduce the Prosperity talk and go back to hammering on the importance of controlling lust, as Priest we should take a break from the tithe talk and tell our ladies to Dress well, as musician we should stop telling these ‪#‎ stories_for_the _gods‬ and start singing about how to win a girls heart, as movie directors we should please cut down on the level of buttocks jiggling in the music videos, we need not copy everything Americans do, as ladies please if you don't like a guy please let him know before he spends his time or dime on you, and as men, ‪#‎ Lets_control_Ou rselves‬. And yes we can

It could be you, it could be your sister, it could be your daughter. Let's all come together and ‪#‎ sayNOtoRAPE‬

Share this around to all social media,share to ur friends, your Pastors, share it on our musicians and celebrities wall.

The only crime he commited was that he was a foreigner

THE BURNING MAN

Nhamuave, who was 35 years old, is known as the "burning man" and photographs of his agonising death brought the horror of South Africa's xenophobic violence to the world.
In all, 62 people were killed in little more than two weeks.
Police closed his case, after concluding that there were no witnesses and no suspects.
A single sheet of paper summarises detective Sipho Ndybane's progress. "Suspects still unknown and no witnesses," he wrote.

Yet when the Sunday Times visited Ramaphosa, they we tracked down an eyewitness who pointed out two of the main suspects in the crime.

The woman sees the killers at least once a week. Her recounting of details surrounding Nhamuave's death has remained consistent for nearly seven years, when she first revealed details of the murder.

At the time she was willing to speak to police. "But the police never came here. Now, I don't trust the police here," she said.

This week, we followed Sipho*, one of the men pointed out by the witness, as he sauntered about Ramaphosa, dressed in a black T-shirt, drinking casually from a water bottle. Twice he passed the spot where Nhamuave was killed, never breaking his stride.

Sipho was part of a mob intent on chasing foreigners out of the settlement. That afternoon the crowd caught two men carrying blankets and clothing with them and attacked them.

"Sipho's the one who stabbed him. He stood over him when he was down and stabbed him, like this," said the witness, motioning downward with a two-handed grip.

The mob then wrapped their victim in his own blankets and tried to set him alight. They failed.
 
Bheki*, another attacker, walked to the traffic circle, where a fire was burning, and returned with a flaming piece of wood, which was placed under the man.
"Then it worked. He was on fire," the witness said.

A doctor at Tambo Memorial Hospital said that Nhamuave would have died from fire scorching his lungs.
'South Africans burnt him alive'

The spot where Nhamuave was killed is now a bustling taxi rank with new paving. Across the road, less than 10m away, Bheki sells knick-knacks to the locals.

"I see them almost every day and I remember what they did to that man. NOBODY WANT TO SAY ANYTHING, but I can never forget," said the witness.

When Nhamuave's three children ask about their father, their mother replies: "South Africans BURNT HIM ALIFE."

" its only in South Africa where you will find an Illiterate villager thinks a qualified medical doctor from another African country stole his job"
