SportsLiesss!!!!!! I Was Not Sacked – Keshi Opens Up by Marksule(op): 8:44pm On Oct 20, 2014
Ex-Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi has said he was not
sacked by the Nigeria Football Federation. In his first official to
his sacking by the NFF, he argued that his contract with the
NFF ended with the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, saying it would
be inappropriate for anybody to say he was sacked.
Keshi spoke on Saturday at the Kwara State stadium during the
final of the 28th edition of All Financial Institutions Football
competition.
“I was never sacked by the NFF. It’s if you have an
existing contract that you would be sacked. Super Eagles
can still qualify for the 2015 AFCON. They have the
chance, because the group is still open. They only need to
work harder.
“We need a lot of encouragement from Nigerians for the
players to go ahead and qualify. I think we can qualify for
the 2015 AFCON,” he said.
Keshi also said that the Eagles can still qualify for the African
Cup of Nations, adding that the team only needed to work hard.
He urged Nigerians to encourage the team.
Nigeria is currently in the third position of Group A with four
points, trailing Congo with seven points and South Africa
leading the group with eight points while Sudan is the last in
the group having three points.
Nigeria will play away with Congo on November 14, and at
home with South Africa on November 19.
The NFF had announced Keshi’s sacking on Thursday with
Shaibu Amodu as his replacement.

PoliticsHouse Of Repesentative Removes Immunity For President, Governors by Marksule(op): 6:23am On Oct 17, 2014
The final process in the amendment of the constitution started
in the House of Representatives yesterday.
The House approved 71 amendments to the Constitution after
an executive session.
The mandatory two-thirds required (240 of the 360-member
House) for the amendment to pass was met as 252 of the 261
members that voted were in favour of the amendments. Eight
voted against and one abstained.
The lawmakers have placed the National Security Agencies, the
office of the Auditor-General of the Federation, the Police,
Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission, on a
first-line charge from Nigeria’s Consolidated Revenue Account.
The President or Deputy President of Senate and Speaker or
Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives are to receive
pension for life as approved by the lawmakers.
The President will mandatorily address a joint meeting of the
National Assembly once a year, if the amendments get the
Senate’s concurrence and are approved by two thirds of the 36
state Houses of Assembly.
But the review suffered a setback in the Senate.
Though the consideration of the report of the conference
committee on the review of the Constitution of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (further amendment) Bill 2014 was
listed in the Order Paper, the consideration could not hold due
to lack of quorum.
The Senate Committee on Rules and Business listed in the
Order Paper: “That the Senate do consider and approve the
report of the Conference Committee on the Review of the
Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (Further
Amendment) Bill, 2014.”
It was listed against the name of the Deputy Senate President
Ike Ekweremadu, who is also chairman, Senate Committee on
Review of the 1999 Constitution.
It was gathered that the Senate leadership decided that
because the required quorum for the consideration of the
report of the conference committee was not formed, the
consideration of the report would be taken on another
legislative day.
Our correspondents also gathered that the Senate leadership
did not want to play into the hands of those who might accuse
it of sidelining some senators in the consideration of the report.
It was not clear if the report would be considered today.
While considering the 108-page report, the House approved
“independent candidacy” to participate in general elections as
well “life pension for President, Vice President, Senate
President, Deputy Senate President, as well as Speaker and
deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives”.
This is contingent on if the occupant was not impeached from
office.
Members also approved Section 7(1a) which prohibits
appointment of caretaker committee by governors while 7(1b)
provides for four-year term to democratically elected council.
Subsection 7(1c) grant financial autonomy to local
governments.
They approved the immunity clause, Section 4(7a), which
states that “in the course of exercising the foregoing legislative
powers, no civil or criminal proceedings shall be instituted
against a member of a legislative House in respect of words
spoken or written before the House or a committee thereof.”
These were part of the recommendations of the harmonised
report of the Ad-hoc Committee on Constitution review adopted
by the lawmakers at the Committee of the Whole.
Other amendments approved include state creation,
indigeneship and citizenship, budgetary process and role for
traditional Rulers, among others.
An alteration of Section 241, which inserts a new subsection
(2A), bars Nigerian courts or tribunals from staying any
proceeding on account of an interlocutory appeal.
They also voted to include in the concurrent legislative list
seven items which include railways, agriculture and pensions.
Federal lawmakers also backed adoption of referendum for
state creation.
They, however, rejected the amendment of Section 9 to allow
for a referendum in determining the fate of the National
Conference recommendations.
An alteration of Section 7, among others, stops revenue
allocation from the federation account to local governments
that are not democratically elected. Local government
administrations also stand dissolved at the expiration of four
years, commencing from the date the members of Council were
sworn in.
An alteration of Section 59 allows the National Assembly to
bypass the president should he fail to sign a Bill presented to
him within 30 days.
It states: “Within seven days, the President of the Senate shall
convene a joint sitting of the National Assembly to reconsider
the Bill and if passed by two-thirds majority of members of
both houses at such joint sitting, the Bill shall become law and
the assent of the President shall not be required,” the alteration
reads.
The action is the most far-reaching amendment made to the
constitution.
It was learnt that the closed- door session was to allow
members agree on the modalities for the voting on the
amendments.
The leadership was said to have impressed it on members that
there was need to pass the amendments without bickering due
to its importance to democracy and the need to conclude it
expeditiously.
The report will be transmitted to the 36 Houses of Assembly for
concurrence, after the Senate’s concurrence.
Chairman, Ad-Committee on Constitution Review, Emeka
Ihedioha, said exhaustive deliberations with the Senate on the
areas of differences was done with due regard to the wishes of
the people,
“At this stage, we also urge you to reach out to your respective
House of Assembly members whom Section 9 of the
Constitution have made critical and distinctive partners, to
support the realisation of the recommendations of the
Committee here attached, which we believe is another
milestone towards repositioning our fundamental legal
framework for public good,” he said.

LIFE INVOLVES RISKS

Memorise: Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. James 4:14

Read: James 4:13-16

13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: 14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. 15 For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that. 16 But now ye rejoice in your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.

Message

When God calls you, it sometimes might appear like a demotion. This was my experience. When God called me into full-time ministry, I struggled with it because I had experienced poverty from childhood which I thought I had finally been delivered from when I became a university lecturer. I received the call of God when the church was in a humble state financially. I recall the day a young man gave me a 50 kobo note; I received it and blessed him. I told him I would spend the money on myself so that my heartfelt blessing will have an impact on him. That night, I thought over it and wept. I ruminated on how I went from being the Head of the Mathematics Department of a University to being a full-timer who receives a 50 kobo gift. God is the one that specialises in taking a man from down below and lifts him up. Those who see how far the Lord has taken me and are unhappy about it have need of God’s mercy. Is God calling you into full-time ministry? Is the Lord asking for more of your involvement in the things of His Kingdom at the expense of personal and family plans? Fear not! He is a better planner than you and what He has in store for His faithful ones will definitely beat your imagination.

Life is full of risks and virtually everything we do in life involves one form of risk or the other, however, God’s call is a risk of life worth taking. Marriage involves risk because some people get married to spouses who fast-track their death. Staying single also is risky because the inability to perpetually remain chaste may make the fellow end up in hell. Staying hungry has its risks while eating food also involves risk. Some people who were not sick died while eating or while trying to swallow food. If you are asked to come and work with the richest man in the world who also has a reputation of uncommon generosity, many would jump without even asking God about it. Yet, even that involves a measure of risk. Some may take up that job and trigger their worst nightmares. When God calls you, there is an element of risk involved but it is the safest, surest and best risk you can ever take. If He calls you into full-time ministry, it means He is ready to take you up as His pet project.

Key Point: Placing your life and total cares in God’s hands is a risk worth taking.
