Interesting times. This is democracy.

HeWrites:
General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, has announced the kidnap of five pastors of the church.

Adeboye disclosed this on Friday during a talk at the Redeemed Camp along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

The pastors were on their way to attend the church’s ministers’ conference in Lagos.

Adeboye said the abduction took place on Thursday along the Ijebu-Ode axis.

He charged the congregation to pray for the release of the abductees, saying it was the first time such incident was happening.

“As a father, how do you think I should feel to hear that five of my children have been kidnapped while on their way to attend the Ministers Conference?” he asked.

Not getting funnier at all. Security MUST be taken seriously by all.
Interesting times ahead.

Sad

this only happens to lower level priests who trust the blood of a Jew to protect them

The higher ups know no blood of someone who supposedly died 2000 years ago can protect them so they take their protection seriously by hiring bodyguards while selling stickers with words like "No weapon fashioned against me shall prosper" at exorbitant prices to the sheeples so they can raise more money to afford more and/or better bodyguards

Look at the Pope. the oga @ the top of this man that died

This pastor died because he didn't have the blood of Jesus protecting him unlike the pastors above

Members should keep paying for stickers and reflective jackets to protect them just like the above pastors are using stickers and jackets

Interesting. Not all like it seems though.

I swear. That word sight struck a chord in me.

gwarotango:
Empty threats all over again. Nobody is going anywhere

Those killer herdsmen threats to lives of their victims is no joke!
It's mischievious trying to debase what is known to be a real problem, to give room to further bloodshed.
Southerners should just wise up as the herdsmen issue keeps spreading into the south, while govt willfully to do nothing tangible to nip it in the bud.

PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari is expected to inaugurate the 43 ministerial nominees recently screened by the Senate after an Induction Retreat slated for August 15-16 in Abuja.

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Mr. Boss Gida Mustapha, in a statement on Friday said that following confirmation by the Senate, all Ministers designate are to note that relevant documents for their study and guidance, preparatory to the inauguration of the Cabinet shall be available for collection at the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (OSGF) (Cabinet Affairs Office) from 10.00am on Tuesday August 6, 2019.

According to Mustapha, Ministers designate are also requested to bring along and submit to the OSGF, their updated CV in soft and hard copies as well as any valid identification document.

“I am pleased to inform you that, in view of the need to allow Ministers designate enough time to study the documents (Status Report on Policies, Programmes and Projects; the 2019-2023 Road Map, and FEC Handbook among others) and considering the upcoming Sallah break, Mr. President has approved an Induction Retreat for Ministers Designate to be held at the State House Banquet Hall, Abuja from August 15-16, 2019,” he said.

He also urged those concerned to contact the Permanent Secretary, Cabinet Affairs Office (CAO), OSGF, for further clarification.

While all the ministers designate were cleared by the Senate, none of them has been assigned portfolios and it is expected that they will be assigned portfolios after the August 16 retreat or during their inauguration.

He can do even do that by Aug 16th, 2022 if he so wishes.
How does having them "on time" change the lots of the impoverished masses?
Next base jare.

Let them face firing squad. They are Highway Robbers, probably Buraitai re-integrated Bokoharam into the Society.

If that for them, what then for Bokoharam and the likes?

The more you try to defend stupidity, the more stupid you'll sound. Even students who were expelled in the first year of school will still have official pictures of them and their classmates

What a bombshell!

SpaceTour:
It doesn't happen by magic wand. It starts now if you wanna achieve it in 50yrs from now. But chasing shadows and leaving the basics cannot take anyone anywhere.

Ebonyi should focus more on education, human capital development, etc. If you have educated and rich population then you are good to go. These are the population that will patronize your airport. Uneducated poor gala hawkers doesn't use airports.

Couldn't agree less. Nigerian leaders seem bent on bogus projects that have little or no impact on the commoners.
Funny enough many of his people who are victims of this are excited by it.

Levant:
Nothing new.

When Sunni dictators cannot handle dissent, they resort to labelling people "terrorist". Wahhabi Saudi Arabia that Bubu and his fellow Sunnis look up to, did this:

Saudi Arabia declares all atheists are terrorists in new law to crack down on political dissidents
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/saudi-arabia-declares-all-atheists-are-terrorists-in-new-law-to-crack-down-on-political-dissidents-9228389.html

The FG is declaring Nigerians as " terrorists" for protesting and holding a different religious doctrine. The court of law they are going to, in fact the the supreme court, has told the FG to release Zakzaky and compensate him. The FG is making a mockery out of the law and court rulings.

Meanwhile it is the Wahhabis that are the real terrorists, from alqaeda to boko haram to Isis to alshabab etc. They will not ban herdsmen causing trouble with ammunitions. They will ban those walking on the streets chanting songs.

Interesting times ahead. Wisdom is key to managing these issues.

Hmm. Try it in Nigeria and see how much they value your life, if your ever make it out of there alive.

Anyone expecting anything spectacular from a government that takes pride in failure, must be daydreaming. Another 4 years of fairy tales and no substantial achievement is here with us. The best might just be to watch and see if a miracle might just happen.

Israeljones:
Will u just 4king shutup....
It was ur kind that was asking for pictures of the slained police men....Now that u have it, U making up silly reasons asif you were there when it happened...
Who are these set of people we live with in this world God!
How can you be so callous with ur thinking....If that man lying lifeless was ur father would you have said this same rubbish?
If those people you are defending had added civility in their approach to get their leader released would this have happened...
Make una dey think nahh....Dont come on social media like this only to come and disgrace ur family heritage all because of likes, thinking you are making a smart comment but only to sound rudiculously stupid

Unfortunately, same sort of civility law enforcement agents are notoriously known to lack in their everyday way of doing things. If it starts from those in authority, it can easily trickle down to the masses.

matify83:
You don't retreat from a mob with your back turned against them. This is one of the tenets of crowd control for law enforcement agencies.

This man was definitely killed by friendly fire until proven otherwise.

The entry (occipital) and exit (temporal) wounds speaks volumes!!!!!

Yet, don't be dismayed, authorities can still go ahead to peddle whatever story they choose to, as the true account of what happened. Believe the official report at your own peril.

EricBloodAxe:
Like seriously do we still have enough men left in the Nigerian armed forces? Hope the government knows that the more it delays to curb this bokoharam menace in it's entirety the more human and financial resources keep getting depleted. I mean how long do they think they can keep funding this war that doesn't seem to end? I really pity the north.

What do we expect from an old man of 70 plus. There shouldn't be any blame for him if he fails to perform after all, it's him we prefer.

”Radio is useless, it is irrelevant” ”There is Internet radio now” yen yen!
Get to a remote area without internet network and tell me how you will access Internet Radio.

Una wey dey even use the Internet Radio, how many places for Naija get good network?

As old as the technology behind radio is, it is still one of the most relevant means of passing information around the world, especially developing countries like ours.

Even for the internet radio, most local stations still no even dey online.

Dam5reey:
Those are not features you find in flagship, yet they are still called flagship, Where are those features on OnePlus 7 pro??

I can say a phone without 3.5mm and radio can be likened to a flagship

Hmm. Na deal breakers them be o.
I guess all can now sheath their sword. Some breath of fresh air needed.

RuddyFusion:
Thanks everyone for your INPUTS......will go for the phone and update US......I believe there's an option to get additional slot for the memory and use the inbuilt two slots for my sim cards

If you buy 128gb ROM variant, need for memory card is almost taken care of. You can't have two SIMs and memory card installed at the same time except you use a dual SIM adapter which will be an untidy arrangement.

RuddyFusion:
Please Nairalanders help me make a final decision on Redmi Note 7. I have planned getting this phone waited until they launched in Nigeria, then family issue came up and i shifted the purchase.

Now I'm ready again and want to buy the 4gb ram and the 128gb space one but i'm dithering about to cough out 75K and i'm wondering if it worth the noise or if we have something better of the same spec?

Biko help a brother decide..

Thanks

There is no hype my friend. If you have done your homework, personal research well you will know you are doing yourself a favour getting the device.
Needless hyping it, after all nobody is paid for doing so. Except if you are okay with just anything thrown at you for same price range.

Am here to solicit for fund for my sick dad, who has been in hospital for a couple of weeks, he is suffering from CANCER OF THE BLADDER. We have been running round lagos, to make sure we conduct the required test and start treatment. It hasn't been easy as fund was an issue, i run out of funds within days and had to rely on friends and God. The doctor noticed this evening he is having uraemia and dialysis is required, we were given referal letter to GBAGADA GENERAL HOSPITAL. I need to take him to gbagada and make sure dialysis start as soon as possible, or else nobody knows what will happen to him.
Am pleading with you all to help me out financially, so that he can get dialysis, run the remaining test and start a treatment plan... All of which, are quite expensive....
Sorry for my not so coherent write up.. Feel free to ask me any question.

Thanks but it seems they don't function anymore and moreover, they have mentioned some of them here...

No wahala bro. Please don't fail to hand it to God in prayer. I believe in miracles.
I honestly do have very good idea what it entails being in your situation with the sort of poor medical care we have in Nigeria. Please do not underestimate the effect of divine intervention in issues like.
Will keep in touch.

Hi dear, did you get in touch with the Nairaland TEHN Group and what are they saying?

judgementyard:
Do all that is necessary to safeguard lives and prosperities that was intrusted to you.
Don't wait for the police,they too get their orders from you know who!

Whatever you do may more or less amount to nothing if your rivals weapons are far superior to yours. It is what it is.

Obj remains one of the many failed ex-presidents Nigeria has ever had. Yet he summons the courage to speak truths sometimes when it matters most.
Such warnings from a highly placed person like him should not be taken lightly. There is nothing to gain in treating such serious national issues as security with levity.

"... I dey look I no talk... "

genq:
I don't mean to gloat over your son's misfortune but this is what happens when a mother leaves the raising of her children to outsiders. Let me guess your wife is too busy to take care of the kids right? Because shes a "modern working class woman".

Go and ask women abroad how they manage to work full time and still raise their own children without househelp. Unlike these ones in Nigeria who after just one child, they can't do chores again. House helps are then put in place to assume the duties of a wife and mother.

Your son is one of many children out there suffering the consequences of these lifestyle choices.

Please could you share the ideas, it will go a long way.
