Bombolistic:
I'm not surprised, women don't have a say in their religion. So sad....I rear my case

Women don't have a say in any religion - all the major religious texts were written by men.

All of the major religions were founded by men.

Most of them explicitly forbid women from being a part of the hierarchy

I'm glad that these people are putting their dysfunction on display for the world to see.

What is a 31 year-old woman doing with a 64 year-old man in the first place?

Ashawo business is dangerous.

zuma4k:
Please enlighten me on how a monarch will generate revenue for his office...

The same way that legitimate governments do.

wallex1983:
The last time I checked, there is scarcity of dollar....... So Toyota has has started selling cars in naira?

Whilst I don't like any of this Toyota have been selling vehicles in naira for decades.

There are numerous Toyota dealers in Nigeria who price their cars in naira.

Why does Nigeria have so many useless 'monarchs' who provide no services whatsoever and can't even generate enough revenue to support the office that many of them have manufactured for themselves?

caprock:
So what is difference between the Emir and boko haram. Boko haram kidnaps young chibok girls and Emir kidnaps young christian girl. they are all terrorists.

There's no difference - they've been raised on the same destructive fairy tales and have the same barbaric goals.

You cannot make an environment 'corruption free' just as you cannot make an environment crime free.

Science aims to satiate man's curiosity with unfettered discovery.

Religion tells man that almost everything about life is wrong - especially curiosity, doubt and discovery.

The only thing that is right is appealing to the fragile egos of the gods.

Anne Graham Lotz, seen here in a 2007 file photo, claims God allows terror attacks “to show us that we need hm.”

Terror attacks such as 9/11 and the mass shooting in San Bernardino were allowed by God because of the gay rights movement and the acceptance of evolution, evangelist Anne Graham Lotz said.

“Our nation seems to be shaking its fist in God’s face and telling him to get out of our politics, get out of our schools, get out of our businesses, get out of our marketplace, get off the streets,” Lotz told conservative radio host Steve Deace, according to audio posted online by Right Wing Watch. “It’s just stunning to me the way we are basically abandoning God as a culture and as a nation.”

When that happens, “God abandons us and he backs away and takes his hand of favor, blessings, His hand of protection away from us and he abandons us,” she said.

“We’re struggling with our own pride or self-sufficiency. I think that’s why God allows bad things to happen. I think that’s why he would allow 9/11 to happen, or the dreadful attack in San Bernardino, or some of these other places, to show us that we need him. We’re desperate without him.”

Lotz, the daughter of famed evangelist Billy Graham and leader of AnGeL Ministries in North Carolina, also complained about HB2, the state’s transphobic law which bars transgender people from using the public restrooms that match the gender they identify with.

“There’s silliness. There’s craziness. There’s most illogical rulings,” she said. “The Justice Department is suing us for something that is just common sense. It’s ludicrous, and to me it’s evidence that God has backed away.”

Lotz then claimed that God would protect Americans from everything, including terrorists and hurricanes, if they repent and pray. Conveniently, she’s hawking a new book, “The Daniel Prayer,” which claims to have a prayer that can “move heaven and change nations.”

If people pray, she said, God will “begin to reveal the plots of our enemies and terrorists before they are carried out. Even the weather patterns, he can even control the weather patterns and protect us from the violent storms that are taking human life.”

But Lotz also issued a dire warning, implying that God could send more terror — or something worse.

“If 9/11 didn’t turn us to prayer like that, if San Bernardino doesn’t, it almost frightens me to think what would it take to make us so desperate that we’ll cry out to God and we’ll get on our face and repent,” she said.

Clearly the all-knowing, all-powerful super being wished for millions of Africans to perish and reside in hell for an eternity.

Likewise Chinese, Indigenous Australians and the peoples native to the Americas and the West Indies.

tonytony208:
Public health should not be publicised, but public health should be jeopardised, abi? Your comment is senseless.

Where did I say that public health should be jeopardized?

InyinyaAgbaOku:
And to think some social urchins were supporting the dirt accumulation.

A beg, relocation or no relocation, should the govt allow dirt to accumulate in a city? If a tourist enters your state, do you have to start explaining why there is dirt somewhere?

I think okorocha and his supporters are too myopic. Are they even humans?

Public health shouldn't be politicized.

They've been saying the same nonsense for almost two years.

Classic projection.

Unless Niger Deltans are making claims on the dustbowls of Sokoto, Katsina et. al. then Buhari's statement makes no sense.

How is it a good idea to introduce a child into such an unstable environment?

fiizznation:
Buhari is currently the best president Nigeria have ever produced. Keep up the good work Mr president. And may God continue to be with you.

The worst economic collapse in decades; investors running for the hills; contradictory advice vis-a-vis the security situation in the North East and yet somehow you claim that he's the best that Nigeria has ever had?

tollytexy:
Let them start with Indonesia & Malaysia first..

Or their favorite trading partners - China, USA and Saudi Arabia.

Prostitution is an economic decision.

Unless you are providing them with an alternative means of survival this whole scheme is a waste of time.

This is one of the many reasons why religion is an epic waste of time.

Rather than identify the best candidate for the positions in questions people are wasting time on trying maintain a dishonest religious balance.

donhils:
Look, He didn't kill the tree, the tree died because Jesus talked. It's just like in these days, u went to your Mango tree to pluck some and u didn't find anything, out of 'frustration' u said na wa for this mango oh...and left. That's how to explain it, but because He is Jesus Christ, fig tree components said abeg oh b4 we offend the master let us kukuma die.

Look, He didn't kill the tree, the tree died because Jesus talked.

He killed the tree but it was manslaughter and not murder?

The all singing, all dancing man/deity didn't appreciate his own power?

donhils:
Jesus didn't curse the tree per say. He just said what he said in passing and He wasn't looking at it when they were coming back the next day. You didn't say Jesus's response after Peter reminded him that the tree had died. He said have faith in God.
What Jesus tried to teach His disciples was the of you have faith, whatever you say shall come to pass because the bible says the power of life and death is in the tongue.
In conclusion, He wasn't showing off; He demonstrated His faith in God.

He demonstrated faith in himself by killing a defenceless tree?

Pay your tithes to me.

I will make better use of that money and any pastor.

colossus2:
What happens in church?

Dancing, singing and money rituals better known as tithes and offerings.

The Infancy Gospel of Thomas:
The only book that deals with young Jesus, it indicates that Jesus was a strong-willed child who one historian describes as "Dennis the Menace as God." The book reveals that at age five, Jesus may have killed a boy by pushing push him off a roof and then resurrected him. Perhaps too disturbing for inclusion in the Bible, this book seems to contain traditions, also known to the Koran.

I'm surprised that more women don't use this BS excuse.

If over a billion people profess to believe that their lord and savior was born of a virgin then why should history not repeat itself?

Melodramatic.

What of the Yorubas who have always questioned Tinubu, his motives and tactics?

How is it an attack on them when he has never represented their interests or desires?

Northmall:
This is sad, likely over-speeding. RIP man

That and possible drunk driving.

A lot of people get behind the wheel after a night of drinking.

Most of these diplomats are thoroughly useless people.

This blatant abuse of diplomatic immunity is a global issue.

Let him stay in Germany for good.

Nigeria doesn't need him or his useless ideas.

aaccountable1:
do u agree sir that there is a difference btw permitting( or not preventing) something and being the cause or doer of the thing?

There is no difference if the being in question is supposed to be the all powerful creator of all things.

If god has pre ordained all things then his omissions are intentional and a considered part of the plan.

timeman:
Turkish govt is biting more than they can chew.how could you ask that Nigeria shut down privatel owned turkish schools in Nig, Without no known Proof(s) that they funded the gulenist movement. Those turkish schools are addicted to islamic education that's a choice i have to respect anyways
Obey the truth!

The Turkish government has asked that schools belonging to those behind the coup be closed in Nigeria, as well as other foreign nations.
