owukpa: No fewer than 3,500 strong members and supporters of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) have denounced their membership and joined the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Benue State, IDOMA VOICE is reporting.
The mass defection, which was celebrated at the weekend in Otukpa, the headquarters of Ogbadibo Local Government of the state, was not unconnected to the grievances expressed by the people of Benue, over what they described as "federal government's poor handling of the incessant attacks and killings of the people by herdsmen".
Saturday's defection was one of the confirmations of the rumours making rounds that there was a grand plan by the state governor, Samuel Ortom and ppeople of the state to dish the ruling party, to register their grievances to the federal government controlled APC.
Speaking on behalf of the defectors in Otukpa at the weekend, former House of Assembly aspirant under the APC, Hon. Ben Joseph Ebije, said the people had decided to support the PDP in the coming general elections, so as to save lives of innocent farmers, market women and children.
Ebije who is a strong political ally of former deputy Governor of Benue State, Chief Steven Lawani, also accused the APC of "jettisoning internal democracy with reckless impunity".
He said no serious minded person in Benue would drop ballot for the APC come 2019, urging others "who haven't seen the light to quickly queue behind the PDP as better alternative".
Receiving the decampees onbehalf of the state chairman, the PDP Chairman of Ogbadibo chapter, Hon. Vincent Amuche, said more people were already consulting to dump the broom party in Benue.
Amuche said great tsunami would hit the APC in the coming days as the pillar of the party at the state level was set to lead his flock into the umbrella party.
Though it was not established whether Chief Lawani, who crossed to the APC in 2016 after his tenure as deputy Governor would return to his former party soon, but those who spoke to our Correspondent said, the defection of Ebije, a strong associate of his, would cause earthquake in the political dynasty of Lawani.
Others were of the thought that, Ebije and his group may have been acting as an advanced party to the former Deputy Governor as both of them are from the same council ward and family and that it would be matter of days before the "August visitor" would be welcome.
am begging to believe in propaganda.even the beer and malt vs pure water doesn't reach 50 pieces. This might be a traditional marriage gathering in idomah
Chochovini: . Do they have an anti-Gospel Lions there? Even if there are, remember what happened to the Lions with Daniel in their den. That same God that saved Daniel from the Lions is still very much alive and shall ever be forever and ever.

Europeman: The president and founder of Omega Fire Ministries Worldwide, Apostle(Prof) Johnson Suleman is set to hold an apostolic crusade in Saudi Arabia, China, Singapore, Thailand, Russia, India etc. That of Saudi Arabia is what is baffling me considering the fact that Saudi Arabia is Islamic stronghold and professing Christ there is even a risk.
According to him, God said it is time to take the gospel to the corridors of Asian countries. He would be having over 40 crusades this year, in five continents of the world.
The boldness, confidence and bravado of the preacher is matchless.
olawalepopoola: Politicians know the weak point of Nigerians and they use it with dexterity. How will Nigerians repay him when he becomes the president. They shall repay him from our Commonwealth purse. Yes from the reserves meant for us and our children and children's children
no. Pretence is the only problem. Most of my best dates normally hits me the first date. And I tell you it last longer than those that pretended on the first date .
davibid: This man sef na all the banks for Nigeria dey owe then na which money e dey take run him business
This your comment makes you greatest fool. Go to your bank and borrow.do think it is easy? Before bank can give you loan you must have worth the loan multiple 5 times.and collateral.

bidv: Nairalander I bring greetings from the other side,
I have this lady I'm currently in relationship with for 2 years now, early last year I proposed to her and she said "YES" following that I introduced her to my family and the both families got to know each other, December we Did a mini introduction (Knocking at the door), my plans is for us to get married this April. My overall budget is 2M for everything (I don't want to spend too much for wedding). Now the problem is, my fiancée is asking for 500K to buy her personal needs for the wedding that's excluding her family lists. She said without the 500K she's not interested in the wedding. I believe she's asking because she knows I have it. I really love her and I don't want to loose her, should I give her or I should let go? Please I need a good advice of what to do.
. Give her 1 million dollar. , who it concernedd.irrelevant
Someone asked me today to advice him how best he could deal with a particular debtor who has been owing him an amount of money for the past 3 month but keeps postponing and he has a feeling that he won't pay him the money....but as a gentleman i am(plus I've never been in that situation before)i couldn't come up with a good plan
so I'm asking my fellow NLanders who might have been in the same shoe one way or the other how you handled the issue then or how you're planning to deal with such person
Esseite: Its obvious she cannot account for contract cashbacks given to her, she should either forfeit the $11m or fight in court.. Meanwhile... $28m/N10bn was brazenly stolen with a caption "F*uk the Minister" by the DG of NHIS, funds meant for healthcare of civil servants, notwithstanding the N900m he was accused off, was suspended but finally re-instated by corruption himself...
"The world belong to 2 classes of people. Those that went through the door and those that went through the window, also those that put the ropes in their necks and those that do the shooting of the rope"
dainformant: Different reactions are trailing the pictures of a man with his Mannequin partner dressed in a wedding garment. According to reports, the man "married" the mannequin whom he labelled as his sex doll in Lagos - with the poster urging no one to put them asunder.
Whether this is for an upcoming skit (joke) or for real, some online users have reacted harshly to this after the photos were shared on Facebook. See below;

DonteMec: Hello Fellow Nairalanders, I have been a nairalander for years but this would be my first post. I have a very serious problem and I need your wonderful suggestions to guide me along. I have been married for like Ten years with kids. My wife is a very good, faithful and wonderful lady. I traveled out of the country for 2 years and just came back this last December. However since then I have this rather strange problem, which has never happened prior to this period. My wife is frigid. She really doesn't like sex. I hate that aspect of her. I have a high sex drive while she has little to zero sex drive. This has of course brought all sorts quarrel over the years. I have since learnt to manage her that way and bear that as my cross, since that is her only weak point. But its not easy. I made love to my wife the first day I came back. It was all good. But subsequent attempts to make love to her, my penis simply refuses to stand erect. Try everything in the book still it will not stand. It's like the penis is scared of my wife, because even a thought of her makes an erect penis go flat immediately. If I strive to put it in with lots and lots of efforts, hoping it will thicken inside, it will stay for 35 seconds, less than a minute and ejaculate. I have had to go for tests and it shows no sickness nor venereal disease. But I have gone for an intensive treatment for all kinds of powerful venereal disease, known and unknown for 3 weeks just to leave nothing to chance. After that, the penis started getting up again. I made love to my wife very powerfully again after the treatment. I lasted for 45 minutes or there about for a round which is my usual style. I was happy that everything is back to normal. However 2 days later we tried to make love again, the penis starts being shy of my wife again. It has been several days since then we have kept on trying, no headway at all. Am confused. The penis simply refuses to stand erect - Jeez this is scary ... I want to take my wife for a test of her own though she has no symptoms of any illness as I also didn't have prior to all these. However I want to know: Is there any venereal disease that is strong enough to paralyze a penis just one day after enjoying it? Could this be as a result of some other reason or factor which I don't know nor understand? Note: My wife is a very faithful one and I trust her. However I just want to explore every possibility. Also note that prior to this I could go for 3 to 5 rounds in a single night, with each round lasting for 45 minutes or there about. Am 41 if you care to know. (Well with my wife its always 1 round of like 1 hour duration) I love good sex and this is frustrating the hell out of me. Please every kind of advice would be considered, even the weird ones lol
Sapiosexuality: Baby science. The technology behind the drone is too simple, too crass that trying to project it as something extraordinary smacks of high level retardation. There's nothing significant in constructing a drone. It's baby science. I'm saying this because of some mummified minds who'd consider it a giant stride and the tribalists who think it's an edge. This is baby science.
and you have been waiting so long to contribute your own knowledge quota in the progress of the Nation. Give honor to whom it is due. Loll
