Politics › Re: Obasanjo Will Not Be Missed In PDP, Says Anenih by MAYOWAAK: 6:48pm On Feb 16, 2015

Family › AGONY OF Monogamy-chief Tola Adeniyi, A Former MD Of Daily Times. by MAYOWAAK(op): 8:51am On Feb 16, 2015
It was at the Church service for the 90th birthday of the legendary Matriarch of the Awo dynasty Chief Dr Hannah Dideolu Awolowo in Ikenne that the thoughts that prompted this article began.
Some well known highly placed gentlemen and their wives were called upon to partake in the wine sipping, bread breaking ritual called Holy Communion. As soon as these respectable ladies and gentlemen, all of them past age 70, and amongst whom were renowned professors, high court judges, legal luminaries and business moguls, finished their spiritual blessing and were returning to their seats, they caught a pitiable sight in their over-flowing garb of hypocrisy.
They wore forlorn mien plastered with furrowed frowned faces like some one afflicted with putrid smell of heavy dose of fart. They looked as if they were mourning a three-year-old boy mistakenly killed by his own father, or the passing of a poor woman who has just succumbed to excruciatingly painful cancer.
They clung to their wives as if they were newly wedded. I temporarily forgot that I was in a holy Church, the spiritual enclave of Christians.
I almost laughed my head off because I knew each of the ‘holy’ ‘monogamous’ men intimately and by Jove, I knew of their second, third or fourth wives/liaisons/mistresses with whom they had sired several children.
To the whole world they were champions of monogamy, but to their hearts and conscience they were celebrated polygamists, or at best, serial monogamists. Pshaw!
I saw pain written all over them, the agony of living a lie, the unease of hypocrisy, and the shame of going through life pretending to be what you are not.
This is the sort of agony a lot of the so-called monogamists go through all their lives. The series of lies they sell to their wives, and the double life they present to their pastors and church leaders, most of whom are actually equally guilty of hypocrisy and double life living.
This piece is not set out to condemn or criticize monogamy. Monogamy is perfect for those who believe in its concept and can genuinely keep to it. I too have been married to one lovely woman for almost 45 years and it has been like a marriage made in heaven. I happen also to be the promoter along with some friends the 35-year-old Family Club of Nigeria which is dedicated to the upliftment and celebration of marriage and family values.
The article is designed to expose the hypocrisy and pain associated with embracing false notions which are really not observed by any culture in the world, and to advise those who erroneously sentence themselves to a life of sadness and emptiness because they were deceived to believe that there is some utopia somewhere called monogamy.
I am very much aware that this article will generate a lot of controversy most especially from those who live holier-than-thou life and have continued to deceive the world that they are upholders of a doctrine that is not supported by true and enlightened interpretation of any religious doctrine. The white men, I am yet to see any human being whose skin colour is like that of chalk, came and told the unfortunate lands they invaded that the cherished cultures, traditions and religions of such lands were rubbish, and instead indoctrinated them with values which they themselves never believed in or truly practiced. We know of King Henry Vlll, and several major historical figures in ‘Christian’Europe who had more than one wife in addition of a string of wives who their ‘laws’ forbade them to address as wives but who nonetheless perform all the functions of wife minus name.
God bless President Mitterrand who openly confessed to having two women in his life, with the one in the other house with whom he fathered an 18-year-old daughter at the time he passed on.
I have schooled, worked and lived virtually in all the continents of the world and I make bold to say with all emphasis at my disposal that no culture on planet earth truly practices monogamy.
My Greek, Italian, Russian, British, American and other Caucasians routinely visit their other wives [called by other names] with whom they have children. But back in the homes shared with the one carrying the ring, they are monogamists!
If God had wanted humanity to be monogamous He or She would not have made the pigeon the only monogamous creature. The cultures that practice polygamy had always known that at any given time, the number of available marriageable women far out number available men plus the fact that an 80-year-old man, if he has money, is still very much in the market whereas a 60-year-old woman may not be that lucky. The biological limitation to a woman’s productive age is also a factor. Why should a woman therefore remain on the shelf till age 45 when she could jolly well get married as second or sixth wife to a man who can afford to share life’s responsibilities with her? Why should a woman leave a man with whom she is No 1, simply because he took a second wife and end up being numberless in the hands of several men with whom she naturally shares bed just because of some doctrine she hardly understands?
All the women who should go and marry but are saying they do not want to share their man with another woman in a polygamous setting, are sharing current boyfriends with several other women. Where is the logic?
The argument that children in a polygamous house are always at each other’s throat does not hold water. Many siblings of monogamous families are known to have had worse and irresolvable, irreconcilable squabble, with dirty bitterness over inheritance than children from different mothers.
The agony suffered by both men and women in the hand of unnatural laws and doctrines is too stifling for comfort. In 2002, five hundred and two Reverend mothers were reported to have died while procuring abortion in Rome. Nigerian Tribune wrote an editorial on the unfortunate incident. And stories of Reverend fathers having children and sodomising young men in their care are legion! Why the hypocrisy? Why should the world continue to live the life of Ostrich?
A well known Nigerian journalist hid his other wives from his wife because his religion would not permit of it and his wife, living in monogamy should not hear of it. At his funeral, 9 Funeral Service programmes by his 9 wives surfaced and the woman parading the ring collapsed. It was the grace of God that prevented double interment that day!
The Western world which had not learnt the art of living amicably with more than one partner under the same roof has indulged in multiple serial marriages, divorcing innocent wives under flimsy excuses so that another woman can move in should not be measure of standard for the world. Thank God Mrs Hillary Clinton in the US and Mrs Cook in England were very much wiser. They refused to allow some indiscretion on the part of their husbands to ruin their marriages.
There was a well known American actor who passed on about a decade ago and all his 11 ex-wives with their numerous children attended his funeral. To ridicule the lie of their hypocritical existence, all the women were recognized and addressed as wives. As far as records show, the man had 11 wives!
Society must rethink this issue of pretentious monogamy vis-à-vis polygamy so that in the not-too-distant future we do not end up with millions of unmarried women whose life style would be worse than prostitutes’ and millions of children whose fathers would be nowhere to be found
Politics › Buhari Can't Win Presidential Election,I Support Jonathan Says Shehu Shagari by MAYOWAAK(op): 11:57pm On Feb 14, 2015
By Simon Ateba/Lagos‎

Muhammadu Buhari, the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress is using diabolical powers to get elected into office, said Shehu Shagari, the man he overthrew on 31 December 1983.‎

Shagari, ‎the Turakin Sakkwato in the Sokoto Caliphate,‎ who was President of Nigeria’s Second Republic between ‎1979 and 1983 before Buhari overthrew him in a coup d’etat warned in a letter that after truncating democracy in 1983, Buhari is using all available means, including diabolical powers to get elected president of Nigeria.

‎”You said you do not want democracy in Nigeria.. (now) the same democracy you truncated, you are fighting hard to get with desperation and diabolical power,” Shagari a northern Fulani nan said in a letter.
‎
Shagari became president after the handover of power by General ‎Olusegun Obasanjo‘s military government.‎


Shagari warned that although has entered into “unholy alliance with some known elements of disunity in the south”, he ‎will “suffer hard in the hands of Tinubu and his political merchants who will use and dump you as they did to Nuhu.”‎
‎‎
‎
‎FULL TEXT OF LETTER FROM ALHAJI SHEHU SHAGARI TO BUHARI
‎

My brother, you have contested the Presidential elections 3 times in this country and in all these times,you have never asked me or my people at Shagari village to support your bid. It is very obvious why you can’t do that. You don’t have the courage after what you did to me.

‎
You truncated democracy with a dastardly coup and took away power from me. You humiliated me and made me to suffer, and you took away my opportunity to RULE Nigeria.

You said you do not want democracy in Nigeria.. The same democracy you truncated, you are fighting hard to get with desperation and diabolical power.

You have entered into unholy alliance with some known elements of disunity in the south but let me warn you.

‎
You will suffer hard in the hands of Tinubu and his political merchants who will use and dump you as they did to Nuhu.

In 2011, you cried publicly when you lost election, and you made provocative and inciting statements that plunged this country into untoward unrest.

You provoked our hot-blooded youths with war cries which erupted into post election violence, that brought Boko Haram into existence, over 500 innocent Nigerians died instantly, most of them youth corpers deployed from one of the unifying agencies of this country.

Personally, I do not have a problem with your ambition.

It is your arrogance that bothers me. If you cannot summon the courage to ask me and my family to vote for you because you know we would not, why do you think Nigerians would look kindly on your past record of destroying a progressing democratic institutions painfully put in place by some respected fathers of this nations like Awolowo and Azikiwe.

No my brother. It is time to wake up from your delusion and do the needful if you still have some conscience.
I am not writing this to you with vengeance intention. I am a practicing Muslim and we leave matters of vengeance to Allah. I write to you as a Nigerian, your brother and a statesman who is deeply concerned. Quit the presidential race now and save this country from the dangling sword of Damocles being menacingly wield by the crooks who surround you. This elections is not about you or President Goodluck Jonathan. It is about the unity of Nigeria which can only be assured by being fair. By this I mean, being fair to the people of Niger Delta.
We can only do this by either re-electing Goodluck or substitute him with any of his kinsmen from the South-south as that can only count fair for a people who are entitled to 8 years in the office of the President. For the elders council in the north, we have come to the conclusion to work towards realizing that fairness. 4 years more is not eternity. It is not too much of a concession for us to make to move Nigeria forward as one indivisible and united country under one God.
May Allah open your mind to see reason.
God bless Nigeria.

Alhaji Shehu Shagari (GCFR)‎

Letter culled from Village Square and shared by PDP Chairman.

Romance › Re: I RATHER DIE SINGLE THAN GET MARRIED by MAYOWAAK: 9:24am On Feb 12, 2015
"If a man had sex with me, he's stupid to think he has used and dumped me. We simply had sex with each other. He enjoyed it, I enjoyed it - I most likely enjoyed it even more than he did. Yet he was the one who took me out, spent his money, again and again, to make me happy; bought me things, drove me to my workplace for weeks, in his car he fueled with his own money, just to get me to do something I'd like to do anyway. Still the stupid man goes about bleating he has used and dumped me. Fool! I used him rather!" - J.O
Politics › Going To Secondary School Without Sitting For Exam Is Enough To Contest-san by MAYOWAAK(op): 12:27pm On Feb 11, 2015
The controversy generated by the discovery that the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari, did not attach copies of his credentials to his forms is yet to settle. The argument is endless. But in this interview with Joseph Onyekwere, an eminent law teacher and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Professor Taiwo Osipitan, insists that the law allows Buhari to exclude copies of his credentials. He also spoke on other topical issues.

WHAT are the qualifications with regards to running for any public office in Nigeria?

The relevant provisions provide for the minimum requirement of the school certificates but unlike the school certificate which you and I know of, section 318 of the constitution has defined school certificate in a very elastic and accommodating manner. Paragraph (d) of 318 (1) makes it elastic as to include any other qualification acceptable to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). So you don’t have to go to the secondary school, to be able to contest election. It may very well be that you may be asking that the law be reformed in this area, but as it stands today, any qualification acceptable to INEC is enough to make you contest election.

Even if it is a first school leaving certificate?

If it is a first school leaving certificate, then you must have had experience in public sector for a minimum of ten years plus attending courses in institutions acceptable to INEC for a total period of one year. Otherwise, you can combine all the courses together. Once you have shown that they are up to one year, it is okay. Then finally under the same provision, INEC must certify that you have the ability to read and to write. So, it is as low as those three, namely, school certificate, first school leaving certificate and attendance of courses in addition to the ability to read and write English Language. You also have school certificate being defined as meaning you being educated to secondary school level. You may get to form five and may not sit for examination; you are educated to that level. You may sit for examination and fail; you are educated to that level. The final one is the one that talks about school certificate result. So, any of those qualifies you to contest election, not only for the office of president, but any other position such as deputy governor, Vice President, senate, House of Representatives and others so long as you have the prescribed age requirement plus school certificate, which I said includes any qualification acceptable to INEC. Just going to school without sitting for exam is enough.

Politics › Re: Sad Day For Obasanjo - Bolanle Bolawole (Nigerian Tribune) by MAYOWAAK: 11:49am On Feb 11, 2015
For the life of me, I will never understand how former President Olusegun Obasanjo does it. When you think he is done, he has just begun. I have watched in utter amusement how he has, yet again, wangled his way into the front page of newspapers on a daily basis. I don’t know of any other former head of state elsewhere who has turned himself into the subject and object of national attention long after he has left power. Obasanjo is always there, always scheming, always screaming. It is his luck, I must say, but, as a mere mortal, I often wonder why some guys have all the luck.

Obasanjo, amazingly, has become a god or a saint to many Nigerians. Many politicians, commentators, journalists, activists and youths who used to criticise him are now celebrating him as our moral compass. The people he has brutalised before — such as Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi — go to Abeokuta to genuflect to him. Even Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, of all people, goes to Obasanjo's house to pay homage. And President Goodluck Jonathan goes to Abeokuta to kowtow to him, with two respected pastors in tow.

How does Obasanjo do it? Can anyone help me out? He has a word on every issue. He expresses his opinion so forcefully, so eloquently and so mischievously that you just cannot ignore him. He loves to criticise what he is patently guilty of. He loves to vilify anyone who does not worship at his temple. There is no accusation Obasanjo throws at anyone that he himself is not double guilty of. He has launched ferocious media attacks against most of his successors — President Shehu Shagari, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua and Jonathan. Only Gen. Sani Abacha pre-empted him by throwing him into jail before he could open his mouth.

Obasanjo complains about corruption and Nigerians hail him. What's his moral high ground? Can someone tell me? Has anybody never heard about the Halliburton and Siemens scandals? The damning reports are there in the attorney-general's office. Does the name Dr. Julius Makanjuola ring a bell? Under Obasanjo, he was the permanent secretary of the ministry of defence implicated in a N421 million scandal. Mysteriously, the case was abruptly closed with Nolle Prosequi (no further prosecution) — the first in Nigeria's history.

Well, Obasanjo went on to set up the anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), headed by Malam Nuhu Ribadu, which — in fairness — did kick the backsides of many politicians. But EFCC could not tackle Obasanjo's own corruption: from the obscene fundraiser for his private library to his shareholding in Transcorp — a company that was getting juicy stuff from a government superintended by Obasanjo. Have we all forgotten the scandalous waivers granted to all kinds of human beings, officially defrauding our treasury billions of dollars?

Does anybody remember that Obasanjo was in power for eight years and we kept importing fuel, with PDP financiers getting the contracts through local and foreign fronts? Forgotten so easily? Does anybody remember how much we spent on repairing refineries that kept "knocking" for the eight years that Obasanjo was in power? Does anybody still remember Obasanjo saying on national TV that he did not know the price of kerosene and it was "unacceptable" that it was more expensive than petrol? How does Obasanjo get away with hoodwinking Nigerians?

Do we still remember that Obasanjo did not resolve the electricity problem for eight years? Do we still remember the "$16 billion spent on power without results" for which Obasanjo arrogantly refused to appear before the House probe panel? Is it that we have forgotten that the damning report was killed? Do we still remember that Obasanjo did not add one coach to the railways throughout his tenure despite spending billions of dollars? Does anybody still remember how many federal highways were in terrible state for the eight years that Obasanjo spent in power? Have we forgotten the Benin-Shagamu road saga? Just like that?

When Obasanjo discusses insecurity, I cringe. From every available evidence, Boko Haram started right under his nose. If he had aborted the foetus, maybe we wouldn't be engaged in fire-fighting today. I have heard many Nigerians say, perhaps innocently, that if Obasanjo had been in power he would have crushed Boko Haram by now. Really? How well did he crush the less complex militancy in the Niger Delta? Was it not under Obasanjo that the militancy started in 2004 and flourished?

To the best of my knowledge, militants were bombing oil installations and kidnapping oil workers with ease under Obasanjo. At a stage, daily crude oil production fell to about 900,000 barrels — from the height of 2.5m. In fact, we were later told that why Obasanjo picked Jonathan as the running mate to Yar'Adua was to appease the Niger Delta. Of course, nobody was appeased. The attacks continued until Yar'Adau offered an amnesty deal. How these facts conveniently escape us is beyond my understanding.

Insecurity? Abacha's regime aside, more Nigerians were assassinated under Obasanjo's watch than at any time in our history. The abridged roll-call: Chief Bola Ige, a serving minister; Chief Marshall Harry, co-ordinator of the Buhari presidential campaign in 2003; Chief AK Dikibo, PDP chieftain and ally of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar; Chief Uche Ogbonnaya (OGB), an ANPP senatorial candidate in Imo State in 2003; and Mr. Barnabas Igwe and his wife, Amaka, in Onitsha. The assassins were never unmasked. What is insecurity?

How did Obasanjo become our moral compass? How did he become such a highly sought-after role model? Has anybody ever managed to read the affidavit Obasanjo's own son, Gbenga, filed while seeking a divorce from his wife on the ground of incest and adultery? It doesn't matter? Has anybody ever taken time to read the letter Iyabo wrote to her father, giving graphic details of his megalomania and duplicity? It doesn't matter? Has anybody ever done a recap of the blatant rigging of elections under the "saint"? It doesn't matter?

Obasanjo pontificates on impunity and we hail him. What happened to us? Dr. Chris Ngige, as governor of Anambra State, was abducted by Obasanjo's associates. Have we forgotten the illegal impeachment of Alhaji Rashidi Ladoja as governor of Oyo State? What about the impeachment of Chief Joshua Dariye as governor of Plateau by eight out of 24 lawmakers? For three years, Obasanjo unconstitutionally withheld Lagos council allocations because of political differences. It took Yar'Adua only a few days in power to undo the impunity.

They say, "Oh, Obasanjo is a patriot. He has the best interest of Nigeria at heart." Really? Can Obasanjo look up to heavens and say, solemnly, that he had the best interest of Nigeria at heart when he was picking his successor? Such a character cannot be my own moral compass. With a moral compass like Obasanjo, though, Nigeria is doomed and damned.

Who is a MAN
A man is the most responsible part of God's creation who starts compromising from his very tender age by giving, giving , giving and hardly take.
He sacrifices his chocolates.. for his sister.
He sacrifices his dreams ..for just a smile on his parents face.
He spends his entire pocket money on buyng gifts for the lady .. he loves.. just to see her smiling
He sacrifices his full youth for his wife and children.. by working late at night without any complain.
He builds ..their future by taking loans from banks and repaying them for lifetime.
He struggles a lot and still has to bear scolding from his mother, wife and boss.
His wife use him to secure the future of her children and hers.
His life finally ends up only by compromising for others' happiness.
If he raises hands on a woman, then he's cruel.
If he gets hit by a woman, then he's a sissy.
If he picks up a fight seeing his girl with another guy, then he's jealous and insecure.
If he remains silent, then he's a coward.
If he goes out, then he's careless.
If he stays at home, then he's lazy.
If he scolds children, then he's a monster.
If he doesn't scold, then he's an irresponsible guy.
If he stops wife from working, then he's an insecure guy.
If he doesn't stop wife from working, then he's somebody who lives on wife's earnings.
If he listens to mom, then he's mama's boy.
If he listens to wife, he's wife's slave.
Respect every male in your life. You will never know what he has sacrificed for you.

We can never be sure Boko Haram would be routed in the next six weeks — or even before May 29. After all, in 2001, US President George W. Bush declared the war in Afghanistan a success after just 10 days of bombardment — but this is 2015 and the war is far from over. It is impossible to put a timescale on warfare. Fighting Boko Haram intensively for the next six weeks does not come with a stamp of guaranteed victory. So what happens in six weeks if the war is still raging? Are we going to move the elections again? What happens if, after rooting out Boko Haram, the Niger Delta militants resume operations? Are we going to move the elections again?

My understanding of the dynamics of this election is that most people have already made up their minds who they want to vote for. I don't see Jonathan benefitting significantly from any shift in dates. Those who have decided to vote against Jonathan are not likely to change their minds even if Abubakar Shekau is captured alive and the Chibok schoolgirls are rescued. And those who will never vote for Buhari will not change their minds even if Jonathan is unable to end Boko Haram. I may be wrong, of course, but that is the conclusion I have come to after debating intensely with pro-Buhari and pro-Jonathan camps in the last six weeks. Minds are decidedly made up.

"SIX WEEKS....SIX EVENTS.... It's no news that the elections have been postponed by six(6) week. What is somewhat lost on Nigerians and which will probably unfold in those six(6) weeks are what I want to go public with.

Here is a list of such events:

1. They will probably get an injuction from a court of competence jurisdiction disqualifying Gen. Muhammadu Buhari for the next elections. Their suit will be given an accelerated hearing at the High Court, but appeal against such judgment won't be given the same priority at the Appeal Court. It will surely not get to the Supreme Court before the new election date.

2. To justify the threat of insecurity some states like Kaduna, Bauchi, Katsina, might be hit by the "sleeper cells" of Boko Haram in those states. Rivers will probably witness a violent clash between supporters of the APC and the PDP. Also a violent clash between LASTMA officials and the FERMA/SURE-P Task Force is envisaged. This is to see the imposition of curfew in those states or some of it.

3. There can also be an attempt on the life of Prof. Jega, or the Presidency might come up with some "indicting" document to either force his resignation or sack.

4. INEC record or data centre might be gutted by fire..

5. Chad will surely rid Nigeria of the insurgents and probably get some part of Borno and Yobe ceded to them which is rich with minerals and oil deposit.

6. The "snipers", DSS and the DMI will move against some civilians and miltary personnel for coup plotting, treason, and complicity in the insurgency plaguing the nation...

After going through this, some might see it as "wild conjecture", my imagination running wide and wild, and it might just turn out to be the events which will unfold in the next six weeks.... It might just be a case of Six weeks, six events..."

And what are you talking about? you don't know who a Man Of God is? Or u're just as ignorant as your master Buhari?
Your knowledge of the scriptures is both shallow and hollow.You need to enrol in a theological school for lessons in the rudiments of Christianity.You have erroneously assumed that the pulpit ministry is "sole beneficiary" of the appellation known as MOG.A born again christian whether at work,home,school,market e.t.c must always demonstrate godliness. irrespective of the fact that he/she is not behind a pulpit.

If there is any leader who has consistently manipulated the religious space to derive political gains, it is President Goodluck Jonathan.
