That LASU has been destroyed by the clueless, corrupt and arrogant Fashola

Horlufemi:
Need to drop this here.

The office of the prophet today is invalid.

We have the Holy Spirit that connects us to God directly.

The bible says "I those days I will pour my spirit on all flesh and your sons will prophesy". Why do we still need a prophet when we have the Holy Spirit. We don't need another prophet. Jesus has given us direct access to God. There is no need to go through another prophet, men at that. Men who gather people who themselves

We need God's Spirit and that does the job of giving us direct access to God.

All these so called prophets are false.
don't mention me I don't have time.

Foolish talk!
Jesus prophesied and said to the Pharisees ....'' I will send you prophets, some you will persecute, crucify, pursue out of the Synagogue'' etc
Stop quoting the Bible out of context

TB Joshua, a prophet of God in hiding? Only an ignorant person would think or believe such?
Why are you in a hurry to see a man that you attacked and condemned as being fake? Why don't you go find the other pastors/prophets that you believe to be real?

Take it or leave it, it will shock the world when God's prophet eventually comes out. Even in his absence from service, millions of people are trooping to the church everyday from all over the world. What does that tell you? The anointing in him cannot be intimidated. Haters and their ilk in Lagos state including the biased magistrate who are lying against TB Joshua will be dead shocked when the truth comes out.

MsNas:
He doesn't need to go and spend money paying for tuition in the UK when plenty schools in the U.S will admit him with tuition waiver and monthly stipend to boot! Very good programmes too. It depends on it undergraduate CGPA though

My reference to UK is just as an example of what I know. I am not recommending him to go there.

If you can afford it, go for a masters in Electrical & Electronics Engineering or Mechatronics at a very good university, e.g. abroad. I understand De Montfort University(DMU) in UK has a very good Mechatronics course at reasonable fee

Boss13:
I think you have a wrong idea of administration. Obj has said it. He is responsible for setting up the system and not dictating who to arrest or go after. A lot of distasteful things has been said about the man, but he still remains the best president Nigeria has had, till we begin to feel the real change of Buhari.

The best president my foot!
You must be dreaming to think that a clueless OBJ was better than Gowon.Go and find out. Gowon was the person that built most infrastructure we have, including Lagos and he fought a difficult war for 3 years without borrowing a Kobo.

OBJ is one of the people responsible for the backwardness and corruption in our nation.
Where did he get money for the university and the presidential library? Corruption and stealing.
Do you know under whose government N2.8billion disappeared as far back as the 70s?

Struggling for credibility after wasting 8 (or 11) years of our national life.
He was in power for 8 years....why did he not arecto Emeka Offor he was not his friend?
How and where did he get money to establish a university?

Corrupt and clueless man

If the military was ill-equipped and poorly motivated when it concerns Boko Haram, then what was the business of Nigerian army in sending troops to fight in Mali?

Oma89:
We like to dominate

That exactly is what causes trouble with your hosts, whether in Nigeria or Ghana, China, Malaysia etc

Take some time and build your career to a top notch in the US. That would enable you get a much bigger and better offer in Nigeria, then you can relocate if you so wish.

Your research project is very important and if successful can land you a much better deal in the US or anywhere in the world. I would not abandon it if I were you.
In any case, you are in the US legitimately, so there is no need to take desperate or panicky measures.
You also have to consider the fact that you may want to go back to the US if things do not go according to your expectations in Nigeria. Would be happy or ready or able to re-start your research in US or any other similar rigorous studies all over again at that time in the future?
My brother, there will always be job offers. The most important is to develop your capacity, experience. qualifications and specialist skills.......with UK/US qualifications and US citizenship, you are qualified to work anywhere in the world....and for big bucks

Emekamex:
More like paid foreigners

Just like you were also ''paid'' to make your thoughtless post here on NL

iwakolewa:
Sarkodie? You meant 'fuse odg' right?

None of them originated Azonto. Azonto actually originated from one of the ghettos in Accra as a street dance.
Sarkodie and Fuse ODG only used the dance in their songs and videos after it gained prominence in Ghana and everybody latched unto the acceptance and popularity of the dance and its rhythm.

A similar thing has happened in Nigeria.

In fact the coming of Azonto has helped to revive and change the Nigerian music scene for the better. All the guys that were pretending to be playing American R&B and hip-hop music have all abandoned that style and jumped unto the Ghanaian Azonto style and their danceable rap. Today, Nigerians have changed from rapping like Mode9, Ruggedman, Dagrin etc and they are all doing the Ghana style of rap which blends very well with fast tempo danceable beats....like Olamide did with ''first of all, bend down low''.
All the trending hits and beats (the so-called Afro-pop, Afro hip-hop, Afro-beat ) released by Nigerian musicians since 2011/12 have been using the Azonto beats and rhythm from Ghana. Virtually all the Nigeria musicians are now playing the hip-life/Azonto style of the Ghanaians....which is basically high their innovation of fast tempo highlife mixed with hip-hop. That is virtually what every young Nigerian musician is copying nowadays and the list is almost endless....Olamide, Wizkids, Iyanya, May-D, Davido, Timaya, D-Banj, P-Square, Mavis Group,....and so on

Compiled and written by Iamsynord

Azonto had gone viral and already making waves in dance clubs across Europe even before Wizkid sang about it. The Fuse ODG video/song that made it even more popular because the dance was well demonstrated and displayed in the video, unlike that of Wizkid which did not display the real style.

Alingo is nothing but just a stolen Azonto being given another name
In a desperate bid to make the dance their own idea, P-Square messed it up by making it too rigid and stressful. You can see that what they are dancing lacks originality and they were just struggling with the steps. Yet the original Azonto is the most fluid, creative and fun-filled dance you can have.

chukkystar:
Alingo was not a hit ooo, na only P Square sabi dance dat thing, it was too hard for peeps to learn

[b]OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE SYNAGOGUE, CHURCH OF ALL NATIONS IN RESPECT OF THE VERDICT GIVEN BY THE LAGOS CORONER’S COURT RELATING TO THE INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED ON SEPTEMBER 12TH 2014

The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) rejects the verdict of the coroner on the grounds that it is unreasonable, one-sided and biased. The church maintains its stand that the incident was as a result of sabotage.

From the verdict given today, we would like the public to take note of the following:

There was no finding that the church engaged the services of unqualified or incompetent professionals for the construction of the building.

There was no finding that the church procured substandard materials for the construction of the building, as confirmed by officials of the Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) who gave evidence at the coroner and certified the materials used were all approved and of good quality.

There was evidence that the church had started processing the relevant building approval before the incident, which had been approved and assessed for payment by the appropriate government bodies.

There was no finding that connected the incident with the lack of a building permit.

There was no finding that church members prevented the statutory responders from carrying out their rescue duties.

The church disagrees most vehemently with the finding that the incident was due to structural failure.

The church considers it strange that the coroner did not refer in its verdict to the evidence of the COREN-registered structural engineer and contractor used by the church nor did it evaluate the conflicting evidence given by civil and structural engineers as to whether or not the incident was as a result of structural failure.

It was a one-sided verdict which left many issues unaddressed and questions unanswered.

The church disagrees with the findings concerning the aircraft that hovered over the six-storey building because there was evidence before the court that the incident could have been brought about by external forces such as controlled demolition or an explosion.

The verdict did not even refer to the CCTV footage which showed the 6-storey building falling in less than 4 seconds – a manner consistent with controlled or externally induced demolition – nor did it refer to the interim report and investigation by the Nigerian police force which pointed to sabotage by external forces.

The church also disagrees with the finding that foundation failure was a remote cause because that is contrary to the overwhelming expert evidence of the structural engineers invited to the coroner who eliminated foundation failure as a possible cause.

The recommendation for the investigation and prosecution of the contractors and structural engineers used by the church for criminal negligence is premature because it gives the impression the coroner has found them guilty when a coroner is not allowed in law to make any finding of civil or criminal liability against anybody.

The recommendation for the investigation of The SCOAN for not possessing the relevant building permits is unwarranted because it did not take into account the evidence that the church had started processing the relevant building approval before the incident. As a matter of fact, the amount payable for the processing had already been assessed by the appropriate government agencies.

The recommendation that statutory responders should be adequately equipped was informed by the fact that the statutory responders who carried out rescue operations in this case were ill-equipped and ill-trained, and that it was the church that mobilised human and material resources to ensure a successful rescue operation.

Finally, the coroner recognised that the conduct of the investigation of the incident was compromised by the failure of the appropriate government agencies to take necessary steps to secure and preserve the scene of the incident, which calls into question the integrity and reliability of the entire investigation.

This is a statement from Barr. Olalekan Ojo, legal counsel to The SCOAN.

We repeat: No matter how long a lie is sustained, the truth will someday prevail!
[/b]

Very good rejection of a biased verdict from a compromised coroner.

Only a biased judge would summon a person to appear before him even when the court had not started sitting to hear the case and when there had been no allegations or judicial material submitted against that person!

mkoabiola:
Despite d outcry by d church members and celebrity,d coroner refused to b compromised

The coroner had been already compromised from day 1.
Why would a judge summon a person to appear before him on a case when the court had not even started sitting to hear the case?
That alone shows that he had made up his mind on who to indict.
His corrupted judgment was not a surprise to anyone that followed the proceedings in court

A biased and lying judge. He decided to rely on the CCTV footage to say that there was no panic when the aircraft flew around the church building! Why did he not use the same CCTV footage to determine the fact that the aircraft was hovering very close to the roof of the building? Why rely on the report of one agency (NCAA) and reject the other (Police)?. Does it mean that those who made submissions that indict TB Joshua were the only people that said the truth? Must everyone indict TB Joshua in order to be accepted by the judge as saying the truth?
The COREN report was based on assumptions, according to testimonies of the witness from COREN representative in court. Yet, that is the report that the magistrate relied on in his corrupted verdict. Pathetic!
The reports from COREN and Lagos State agencies all alleged that faulty foundations were the cause of the collapse, but they had to swallow their words when it was proved beyond doubt that the foundation was still solid and its integrity intact. Then they started cooking up other excuses. Now, the judge has abandoned the reason that was given by COREN and Lagos state agencies (faulty foundation), and now saying it was 'structural failure due to combination of designs and detailing errors" What are the exact design and detailing errors? He could not say! Liars!

Activa:
Why didn't he get an approval before building?

What about buildings with approved permits but also collapsed?

starlingslimnet:
Only a deluded,crazy, inverted, useless, ruthless,complicated seed of a thousand father can beat his wife.It's unjustifiable no matter how convincing the explanation are ..it's unacceptable and untenable...quite wild and incomprehensible. It still beats my imagination and my understanding why a sane man will raise his hands to beat his wife. Any man that does this is just a reta.rded bloody foolish castrated dumbfolded he goat.Encapsulated he is nitwit.

I don't support violence against women, whether wife or not.
But we should also be wary of what a woman or wife can do to make a man beat her.
If your wife gives your old, aged mother serious physical beating to the extent that your mother is bleeding, what would you do to such wife?

I have witnessed such incident and the man had no other choice than to beat the wife....and I supported him 100%

kromoto:
Good one.

I just like the speed with which these Governor's are attending to disaster or emergency.

Lets see if they can continue like this for 4years.

The evil man called Fashola would never have given this kind of help to these poor victims

donholy28:
and they blame Christians? unbelievable these people are stupid when churches wr bombed every Sunday some years ago did anyone burn mosques...these hoodlums should be caught and dealt with

I always shake my head in dismay when I hear some of these moslems saying that Islam preaches tolerance! Big shit.

Hundreds of churches had been bombed and burnt, yet no Christian retaliated on mosques. Now, after many years, a bomb goes off in a mosque and they are attacking churches.
They cannot even think deeply to realize that those bombs were probably kept by their fellow Islamic jihadist in preparation for another bombing mission elsewhere but went off accidently.

Thank God for Christianity and its virtues of patience and forgiveness......

Don't be deceived. To me, ''Visibility on the internet'' as a criterion for ranking schools casts some doubts on the credibility and integrity of the ranking.
What about the quality of teaching, facilities, students performance, teacher to student ratio, lecturers from foreign schools, number of lecturers on sabbatical, library facilities, studying and living conditions etc which are more important

The 'African Challenge'' competition organized by Zain a few years back is a clearer indication of the standards of education in Africa. Students from the best Nigerian universities e.g. UI, OAU etc were dusted and outclassed by students from very young universities from Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania etc

Awesome?
Go watch TB Joshua's 52 Birthday and see what is really ''awesome''

Lawprince:
I wonder what the millions of blind, deaf, dumb and crippled persons in Idi-Araba, Ajegunle, Ikotun and other axis in Lagos have done to God not to deserve His healing through TB Joshua. I don't eat such a poo at all. Stage play.

Foolish talk.
There were many blind and crippled people in the Bible during the time of Jesus's Christ, but only a few ones were healed by Him. There is nowhere in the Bible where God said a genuine prophet must heal every sick person in a nation.
You have the right to choose not to believe. God does not need the consent of your belief before He anoints a pastor to perform His miracles.

Jaymima:
The pastor has started it. Let him cure all the mad (wo)men roaming the streets of Lagos, after which he should proceed to either Yaba Left or Uselu Psychiatric

Can he start with the mad men and women you know and are closest to you, probably the ones amongst your family or siblings?!
I think that may convince you better.

Lesson for all the drug users,including those who smoke marijuana and deceive themselves by saying it is not a drug.
Majek started the same way

indiraserv:
Ha ! More Churches !! More Mosques !!!
Yet Cows,Goats and even Chicken lives seem to be worth more that Human lives in this country!

Counted 7 different churches on one street and I was forced to wonder if the Christ changes based on the Church,how is this related to the Topic

How can we be a people so religious and yet spiritually dead that rape,murder,incest,e.t.c hold sway in this country.......

SOMETHING IS DEFINATELY WRONG !!!

There are more smoking and drinking joints than the churches and mosques, in all parts of Nigeria.
Talk more about that.

smurfy:
And what is he today?

He is somebody that you now talk about

smurfy:
A friend of mine who knew well back then told me he was just a mechanic before he made a trip to India.

He came back and then became what he is today.

Why don't you become just a carpenter, mechanic, driver or whatever, then make a trip to India and then come back to be what he is today?

brize:
I dont think he went to school at all, always using poor English

That is what makes him more special, just like the prophets of old in the Bible. Good English is not anointing. Did Jesus speak any English grammar?
If you care to know, TB Joshua describes himself as a rustic boy with little or no education. He started from a humble background, like David who was staying with animals in the bush. Peter was an uneducated fisherman, but Jesus Christ used him as a pillar upon which He built His church.
In Christendom today. TB Joshua has become a global icon, despite all the campaigns of calumny, hatred, persecution, name calling that he suffered in the hands of the ''educated, Queen's English-speaking Pharisees Fellowship of Nigeria(PFN).

When I go to church, I look out for the divine anointing at work in the life, works and teachings of the pastor, not which pastor speaks best English.
If you care to know, the best English speaking people are in the universities and politics.
God has been using the man that speaks "poor English" to heal and deliver people from diseases and afflictions that have defied all the knowledge of the people speaking ''good English''. That is more important to me and any right thinking person!

Why wardrobe allowance in the first place?
Is the national assembly a fashion parade ground? Are the legislators in showbiz or television newscasters?
Can't they provide to buy clothes from their normal salaries?
How many workers in the civil service get paid ''wardrobe allowance"?
