MuttleyLaff: You asked for five, so I restricted myself to the limit. Do you see the magnanimity of the dividends of democracy from those five list enjoyed? Did you read what naptu2 posted about Alhaji Lateef Kayode Jakande being one of the best governors that Lagos has ever had (i.e. if not the best, but that's naptu2 not wanting to be truthful and committed. He was also conservative with LKJ's achievements)
Are you aware at all that the octogenarian Alhaji Lateef Kayode Jakande is still alive?
The thing about 989900, Ajibel, luvmijeje and others, is that you all are suffering from a Stockholm Syndrome situation and so have developed sympathy for the oppressors of Lagos State. Even in far way Ghana, Jerry John Rawlings, former Head of State and President of Ghana, just recently, has said that Nigerians are still in love with their "oppressors"
The Ethiopia-Djibouti railway line modernisation, was initiated in 2011 and completed in October 2016. China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) who was among the contractors for this project is also the company appointed as the contractor for the construction of the Lagos Rail Mass Transit Blue line. Now, the same China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) that was responsible for constructing the 339km railway from Mieso to Djibouti section of the Ethiopia-Djibouti heavy duty railway line modernisation, with a contract cost of $579m or 579 million USD is the same company contracted to build the 35km the Lagos Rail Mass Transit Blue line at $1.2bn. Started after Nigeria's own and finished it but the Lagos Rail Mass Transit Blue line is still crawling to completion, with the completion date kept kicked ahead in the tall grass cc Dantedasz
And I've asked you that if Gbadamosi gets there, won't he also steal? Won't he also inflate contract? Is there a politician who's a Saint? Are they not all thieves?
Until we have a system that can act as a check and balance, I trust no politicians.
Dantedasz: What is your point. I am aware of the flaws.Do you want ME to start listing Fasholas' flaws. Jakande had his flaws but you should learn that administration of government did not start when you were born. People sweated and set the foundation of the government of today.
People also sweated and set the foundation of Jakande's government. He didn't come in and met nothing.
THE ANCIENT GREEKS RECOGNIZED TWELVE TYPES OF LOVE: THE OYINBOS WHO TRANSLATED THE NEW TESTAMENT ONLY RECOGNIZED ONE.
Therefore, I am never impressed when someone tells me that they "love" me.

16. “Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. 17. "But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the Councils, and they will scourge you in their Synagogues; 18. "And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a Testimony against them and the Gentiles. 19. But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. 20.

THE SERVANT OF GOD CAN ONLY PREACH AND TEACH WHAT THE SPIRIT OF GOD GUIDES THEM AND COMMANDS THEM TO PREACH AND TEACH.
Never tell a Servant of God his job again.
As I said: THE DEFINITION OF "INSANITY IS:" REPEATING THE SAME THING THAT HAS NEVER WORKED IN THE PAST, EXPECTING IT TO WORK IN THE PRESENT.
When has telling your Teachers how to correct you worked out for you in the Past?
It has kept you weak and ignorant.
What could be more stupid?
What could be more rude?
What could be more arrogant?
If you don't know The Bible, of course you will be ignorant of how to have God respond positively to your prayers!
How can you love me, but HATE MY GOD?
Why should anyone care about you, and what you want?
If you want to go to HELL, you will not even succeed at that, because you lack the mental strength to survive the death of your body.
How dare you call THE WORD OF GOD "CRAP?"
How dare you call THE ADVICE OF AN ELDER "CRAP?"
Just who do you think you are, and how do you expect GOD to JUDGE you?
If I wanted God's Judgment to fall upon you, all I should have to do is say nothing.
But then, I would not be doing my job.
Do you fools think that you are the only people here?
Others will benefit from my Message, even if you never will.
Finally. I don't know you can communicate. I'm beginning to feel like you are a robot who have programmed Scriptures to be spitting out senselessly.
Sir, please do accept my apologies for being rude to you. I thought you were a robot. With this your emotional rant, I'm now sure you are human.
Ajibel: I'll help you ma with some links to back you up, so that the anti Fashola goons can go through.
I'm not ashamed to say that Fashola is the only politician dead or alive today that I admire. The Tinubu that is his political mentor is not and can never be my fan.
Dantedasz: ^^^ Thank you. It is so sad history is no longer taught in schools. Lateef Jakande built the foundation of Lagos state that every governor that came after him built on. Even Fashola dare not claim his administration was better than Jakandes regime. In fact if not for military usurpers who truncated civilian rule in 1983 Lagos would have had a metroline ages ago. What Fashola was building along Badagry express way that has descended into a quagmire and bottomless pit of corruption was taken from Jakandes manual for Lagos State transportation. It was Buhari as a military ruler that cancelled the signed agreement between the Lagos State government of Jakande and his foreign partners thus setting the Lagos State transport plan of Jakande back by decades. An error from which Lagos state has not recovered up to the present day. Just visit the Lagos Badagry express way axis.
You didn't finish reading it. Did you see the flaws that Naptu listed?
MuttleyLaff: You must be a millennial then 1/ Free education from primary to tertiary level 2/ The present day Lagos State Secretariat at Alausa was built by Jakande's government within four years 3/ Built Lagos State University 4/ Constructed the Victoria Island/Epe Road, that APC have not only over bloated the cost but have spent 19 years trying to upgrade it 5/ Built Lagos State Television & Lagos Radio
Really? If these is the best of his achievements, may Baba go sepe.
1. If I start listing all what Fashola commissioned during his administration, you will apologize to us his fans immediately. But let me list those I witnessed and what really inspire me to be his fan.
2. The ability to inspire.....Fashola is the first politician that will inspire me with his speech to believe in his programmes.
3. I've witnessed Fashola come to the general hospital to make an inspection without them knowing that he's coming.
4. Fashola is the first Politician that I'll see regularly checks up on going projects and not completed projects.
5. Under him, I got to see works being done on a major carnal during the dry season.
6. Under him, I got to see public transport drivers afraid to break traffic laws.
7. Under him, I got to see our emergency numbers working effectively.
8. Under him, I got to see State police patrolled during the darkest hours.
9. For the first time, I saw a leader who was passionate about leading.
10. For the first time, I saw a leader who understand the importance of communication.
For the numerous projects Fashola commissioned, please make use of Google and come back to apologize to us.
MuttleyLaff: I quoted sample of others agreeing that Fashola is overrated and that was to show, it's not just only me, to show it isnt an opinion but it is a fact that Fashola is overrated.
Where Alhaji Lateef Kayode Jakande stands, Fashola will be dwarfed. That inflated and over bloated Lagos Rail Mass Transit blue line was a vision initiated and conceived in 1983 by Jakande, only for Muhammadu Buhari to waltz in under the barrel of gun in 1985, truncated a democratically elected Jakande government. In the process, just like that, scrapped Jakande's Metroline project and so investments went down the drain, at a loss of over $78 million to Lagos State tax payers. cc luvmijeje
Time for confession..... I wasn't born in 1983 nor 1985. So I can't make an objective rebuttal.
But during my time on earth, Fashola was and still remains the best governor of my lifetime.
List five things that makes Lateef Jakande far better than Fashola and I'll list 10 things Fashola have done to revitalize Lagos State.
decuteGenius: Atheists do not like to be called by that name bcoz of the sentiments accompanying it and will not want to engage in a deep religious argument with just anyone bcoz you're all weirdos. Don't quote me for all atheists
BraveAtheist: A 21st century atheist movement founded by intellectuals such as Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett and Christopher Hitchens. Read more about it here:
Fashola raising a point of people having excess suits they can't put on and have excess lands they can't build on......... If they work for it, I have no issue with it. The issue should be those who are funding their excesses with the public fund.
There are some posts that weakens me when I finish reading it. This is one of them.
MrHandsome2013, your friend have gotten married.... So fucking what? Na your wife she marry? So everyone around you is making it.... So what? You are earning 10,000 naira......na here e tire me. As a guy what will you do with 10,000 naira? As a babe, I can barely survive on it. My first job I earned 4,000. then 8000 and 12,000.
Do you know what I've learnt from life. Life na phases o. Life na turn by turn. Within a minute, your life can change.
I want you to add home lessons or home tutorials or organize tutorials for your students to add to what you are doing. You can go online and advertise yourself. Just don't give up. And forgive your parents.
MuttleyLaff: You are not loving him enough. You dont love Lagos State enough, if you do, you wouldnt settle for anything and/or anyone less, based on just sheer sentiments. If you love this guy, then show with your thumb on March 2nd 2019 when the 2019 Lagos gubernatorial election will take place. Sensitise others in your circle and/or sphere of influence, tell and educate others about him within your network at work and home
In Yoruba colloquial, it is said "a single hand cannot lift up a full calabash to the head"
you want to kill me with laughter. So you are really this invested.
Let's see how the election goes. If APC wins the Presidential election in Lagos, I'll vote and campaign for him. If they win by a slim margin or lose, your guy won't survive to see the election.
MuttleyLaff: Did the Jakande of this world steal? We are not even talking of stealing, we are talking of who is most capable at providing dividends of democracy to Lagos State. Babatunde Olalere Gagbamosi has ran a virtual micro government in Ibeju-Lekki, providing security, 24/7 electricity, tarred roads with sidewalk and covered up drainage, waste management services, integrated CCTV and broadband internet for link with main gate and neighbors etcetera, without loans, oil block, tax reliefs from government etcetera. Governance is about serving, not stealing
MuttleyLaff, I also love this guy. Let's see how well he will do in the upcoming election.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_cVIykqqNE Gbadamosi there in the first two YouTube videos, talking in 2013, whilst still in PDP. No light then, light still no dey in 2019 I dont know why you, along with the elitists and the corrupted media outlets, that ought to know better, are always fond of making wrong and/or inappropriate choices with all the scammers
luvmijeje, if you must know, Fashola is family, but I dont mind who's ox is gored, I tell it, as it is. No blind loyalty anywhere. List me Fashola's legacies? Hmm? Nada! Disu, should ask Fashola about the overbloated cost of the Lagos Rail Mass Transit blue line raised by Gbadamosi. The Lagos rail project still crawling and the completion date kept kicked ahead in the long grass
Is there any politician that's a Saint? What's the assurance that if Gbadamosi gets there, he won't steal?
NO ONE WHO TALKS LIKE THAT ABOUT OUR CREATOR HAS THE RIGHT TO HAVE ANY PRAYER ANSWERED!
Actually, such a person has no right to even live.
Blasphemy is a capital Sin.

10. And the son of an Israelitish woman, whose father was an Egyptian, went out among the Children of Israel: and this son of the Israelitish woman and a Man of Israel strove together in the camp; 11. And the Israelitish woman's son blasphemed The Name of The LORD, and cursed. And they brought him unto Moses: [and his mother's name was Shelomith, the daughter of Dibri, of the tribe of Dan:] 12. And they put him in ward, that the Mind of The LORD might be shewed them. 13. And The LORD Spake unto Moses, Saying,
14. 'Bring forth him that hath cursed without the camp; and let all that heard him lay their hands upon his head, and let all the Congregation stone him. 15. "And thou shalt speak unto the Children of Israel, saying,
'WHOSOEVER CURSETH HIS GOD SHALL BEAR HIS SIN.'
16. "And he that blasphemeth The Name of The LORD, he shall surely be put to Death, and all the Congregation shall certainly stone him: as well the Stranger,. as he that is born in the land, when he blasphemeth The Name of The LORD, shall be put to Death."
YOU ARE A FOOL TO NEVER BENEFIT FROM FAITH AND TRUST IN GOD YOUR WHOLE LIFE, AND STILL FAST AND PRAY FOR SOMETHING- AND THEN BE DISAPPOINTED WHEN YOU FAILED TO GET THE SOMETHING.
The classic definition of "INSANITY" is: DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN, EXPECTING DIFFERENT RESULTS EACH TIME!"
Your Post has to be a LIE: no one can possibly be THAT stupid!

12 And on the morrow, when they had come from Bethany, he was hungry:
13 and seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he went to see if perhaps he might find any thing thereon: But when he came to it he found nothing but leaves; for the time for figs was not (yet).
14. And Jesus answered and Said unto it,
“Let no man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever.”
And His Disciples heard (it). 20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21. And Peter, calling to remembrance saith unto him,
“Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.” 22. And Jesus answering, Said unto them,
“Have Faith in God. 23. "For verily I Say unto you,

"Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no Reward of your Father Which is in Heaven. 2. "Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the Hypocrites do in the Synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I Say unto you,
'THEY HAVE THEIR REWARD.'
3. "But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: 4. "That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father Which Seeth in Secret Himself shall Reward thee openly." 5. "And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the Hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the Synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men.

'THEY HAVE THEIR REWARD.'
6. "But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father Which is in Secret; and thy Father Which Seeth in Secret shall Reward thee openly. 7. "But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the Heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8. "Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask Him. 9. "After this manner therefore pray ye:

WHATEVER SORT OF PRAYERS YOU PRAYED, THEY WERE ALL BULL(*Bleep!*).
That is why they have never yielded ANY results.
If you were not a FOOL, you would have LEARNED how to PRAY PRAYERS THAT YIELD RESULTS. But you ARE: therefore, you prayed the same way that YOU HAVE PROVEN did not work, for something important to you, and then DESPISED GOD, because you did not get it.

6. Now there came a day when The Sons of God came to present themselves before The LORD, and Satan came also among them. 7. And The LORD Said unto Satan,
"Whence comest thou?"
Then Satan answered The LORD, and said,
"From going to and fro in the Earth, and from walking up and down in It."
8. And The LORD Said unto Satan,
"Hast thou considered My Servant Job, that (there is) none like him in the Earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that Feareth God, and Escheweth Evil?"
9. Then Satan answered The LORD, and said,
"Doth Job Fear God for naught? 10. "Hath not Thou made an Hedge about him, and about his House, and about all that he hath on every side? Thou hast Blessed the Work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. 11. "But put forth Thine Hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse Thee to Thy Face."
12. And The LORD Said unto Satan,
"Behold, all that he hath (is) in thine Power, only upon himself put not thine hand."
So Satan went forth from The Presence of The LORD.

20. Then charged he his Disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus The Christ.
21. From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his Disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the Elders and Chief Priests and Scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day. 22. Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying,
"Be it far from thee, Lord: his shall not be unto thee."
23. But he turned, and said unto Peter,
"Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an Offence unto me: for thou savourest not The Things that be of God, but those that be of men."

"If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 25. "For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life or my sake shall find it. 26. "For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole World, and lose his own Soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his Soul? 27. "For The Son of Man shall come in The Glory of his Father with his Angels; and then he shall Reward every man according to his Works. 28.

The fools who traded their ETERNAL DESTINY for temporary riches will regret it later. They are supposed to regret it latef,- not now.
How they seem to prosper here and now is unimportant.
How they will suffer the loss of their SOULS is very important.

If it is not, your intelligence must be lower than I think it is,

Oga, have you noticed people rarely quote you? And I'll tell you why. How dare you quote a whole Bible passage in defense. If they want to read Bible, they won't come online. Who have the time to read crap. The one I'm quoting now, I didn't read it.
I love you and I know you think you are passing a message but you are not. Make your message short and precise.
they said to him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?” This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.” And once more he bent down and wrote on the ground
The Teaching Of Paul : Ist Timothy 1 : 8-10
Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully, understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers, the sexually immoral, men who practice homosexuality, enslavers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine
Christ was totally against the law of Moses but Paul promoted it. Christ recognize you can't be a man and not sin but Paul criminalize the act of sinning.
Originakalokalo: You said being born again is not a requirement in service to God... You simply throw away the words of Jesus...
Jesus told nichodemus... "except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God... "
Being born again is having one's life, regenerated..
This is the core essence of Jesus death on the cross.. you cannot serve God in your crude state... You need to be refined.
You said that Jesus didn't ask the 12 or 72 to baptise anyone... It was not stated there... Yes.
But in another verse Jesus said... "go yea into the world and preach.... Baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the Holy Spirit... "
You mentioned that you don't believe in the book of Paul I would have kicked greatly ......
....until I read the part where you said that the Bible is a teaching of men... So there is no point.
You have a twisted knowledge of Salvation and the word of God...
This is very dangerous and deadly... Isn't it better for you not to have read the Bible at all than for you to read and condemn it this much?
If you have not read it, you have a chance. .....
Now that you have read the Bible and you have condemn it, what chance do you have?
The Holy Spirit is the only one who can help you in this state...
I can't.
Another righteous fool.
As I earlier said, get ready for me to tear that book of man you called the Bible. And I'll do it without going out of the scripture.
Elsah: Ranchoddas, didn't understand me, I'm glad you do. There are somethings in my head i might never be able to dicuss with anyone, not even my life partner. Right now the person who wrote what I'm quoting rn, is the real 'luvmijeje', that's the real person no one can see.
The physical part of us that interacts with everyone on the outside, is just us wearing masks. Noone might actually get to know the real us until the day we die. Well, maybe except if ppl start learning how to read minds.
We are all fighting battles in our heads that nobody knows about and even if we talk to ppl about it, they might just give advice and leave, or even judge us in their own minds. They can't crawl into our head to help us. So, at the end of the day, it is up to us to choose to keep fighting those demons in our head or keep losing to them.
Nobody, i repeat, nobody can help us fight the internal battles in our minds. Well, except God who isn't a physical human being. We're all alone.
And you are just 21. You seems way older.
Anyway Elsah, I want you to keep fighting that war and to always follow your mind. The key to happiness is finding our true path in life. And you are never going discover that if you are afraid to fail.
We all fail Elsah. If we don't fail, we'll never get to grow or be strong. Don't be afraid to take that step.
