Christianity EtcRe: Enough Of The 'Let's Go Fishing', Why Not 'Let's Go Problem Solving'? by mpowa(m):
The Problem I have is that many of you people who have these wonderful ideas rarely do anything to add to the value of the society. It is not the responsibilities of certain people to solve all society ills. People solve problems based on how they understand to solve them. Jesus cannot be a scientist and at the same time be a religious leader, neither can pastor Adeboye. He will do what works for him.

Now you who have all these great problem solving ideas, why don't you start doing something about it. Or did they tell you that the LETS-GO-A-FISHING Program can't co-exist together with all the wonderful problem solving items you listed above?

God has given everyone a DRIVE, If you're passionate about all these things, start them, and the RIPPLE EFFECT will spread.

But I noticed that the real problem solvers rarely makes noise. I belong to an ANDELA group and all we want to achieve is to raise the number of PROGRAMMERS and SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS in Nigeria, and it's moving FAST

Start your own CRUSADE, stop condemning those who are doing their own.

and he's giving his state what Buhari fails to give Nigeria which is security against murderous herdsmen
my friend go and read your history well against fela and obj ok?

believe it or not Fayose is the Morden fela while you see Buhari as your saviour probably because he's apc he sees him for the murderous monster he is.
Where did you see me making Bulgari my savior? Have you been reading my comments? I'm not a zombie and I'm not a youth that supports his political sentiments blindly. Correct youths are those who can analyze things and apportion blames to whoever is at fault. In this same post I've supported Fayose's comment, we need a president with presence. But sentimental youths only support their sentiments even if it's at the detriment of Nigeria as a whole, they are why we're here.

otunnei:
hmmmm who told you

fela was called all sorts of bad names by his own people and some sponsored government blackmail and torture
nobody was ready to speak for him even when Obj killed his mother.

same thing is happening to Fayose tomorrow your children will accuse my children for re-writing history that yoruba so much love Fayose.

see am from the east but I'll love to have a governor with 40% of Fayose guts and liver because what we have over here are some bunch of useless cowards ready to sell their people because of money.

without Fayose by now fulani herdsmen would have built an "obudu cattle ranch" in your back yard and slaughter you if talk nonsense.

Fayose alone opened the eyes of other governors to see that you can pass a law against grazing in your state assembly without fear.

he personally formed a militia to protect his people (which is the most important work of CSO chief security officer he is)

with this alone he should at least earn the respect of his people but instead they always side with those that neglected them and placed more importance on cattle than human lives.


I ask again what's the crime of Peter Ayodele Fayose that makes you guys hate him this much?
stop distorting the truth and stop mingling Fela and Fayose together. Yoruba did not side Obj against Fela. Fela was not popular among some Yoruba in the area of his lifestyle, it has nothing to do with politics, It was a major cultural shock to them considering Fela's reckless lifestyle, smoking india hemp, and his womanizing habits, but many still respect him for his boldness and the truth he speaks about government. They don't support OBJ's attack on his property - Go and listen to Fela's song UNKNOWN SOLDIER where he talked about everyone questionig "what did fela do" why d attack. all these happened in Lagos, those who support him are large his Yoruba tribe, Yoruba lawyers and activists.

Stop mingle Fayose, everything Fayose does is for himself and his political survival, every attack on Buhari is not because he loves Nigeria, it's to rack up a base of support from Buhari haters, stop mixing things together - How can a pot be calling Kettle black, if you're so good in governance why don't you start from your state? I will listen to him, if he's not in government.

that's how they treated fela bad just to please Obj even when they know that he's right they called him mad man, etc criticising the messenger instead of digesting the message.
today they now see what fela saw those days.
the earlier they realise that this is Nigeria where tribe comes first before Nigeria the better for them.
only Hausa people understand this that's why they keep retaining power
All you people always trying to re-write history, I don't understand. where did anybody leave Fela and where supporting OBJ. OBJ only got little acceptance from some Yoruba when he came back to presidency, especially in his second term 2003. Yorubas don't like OBJ because he blocked Awolowo from becoming a president thou he won the election. Pls stop writting your own Super-Story to history.
PoliticsRe: Where Is President Buhari? – Fayose by mpowa(m): 10:34pm On Apr 20, 2017
As much as I'm a Big critic of Fayose and his Amala politics, I will agree that these are salient points. I don't like this country, the desperation for power is too much. If Buhari is not Okay, he should go and treat himself, the country will run, we have a capable VP. And if he's not able to continue at all, he should hand over. The same thing keep repeating itself in this country, some unknown faces will just gather round the president and will begin to push their own agenda. I'm tired of naija...

They Don't. Yes their Ages are correct. Also check the longevity of their footballing career. Most of them stay at the topflight for 15 to 20 yrs, Nigerian best players rarely stay up to 5yrs. Ronaldo entered United has a teenager, and with would be obvious from videos that he's a kid, So they don't lie like us. 'Little Messi' Old pass the real Messi!
SportsRe: Rohr: "Nigerian Players Lie About Their Age, That's Why I Hardly Invite Them" by mpowa(m): 11:05pm On Apr 14, 2017
This man should look for another excuse, so the foreign based ones don't lie about their age? The only Nigeria players who don't lie about their age are the ones born in Europe or America.

The league might not be the best but there's no way you won't find at least 2 or 3 very quality players @ least to be tested for friendlies. Steven Ode is a good example. He scores almost every week. Do you need him to join a 3rd division club in Afghanistan before you recognize him?

Well the results are still coming for you so no problem, you can do what you like.

Please which song is tuface biggest hit till today... The fact that African Queen is the song that changed the game for him cannot be overemphasized but it's a pity he stole it from his own guy. Look at it from blackface angle too and stop acting as if tuface is innocent.
You were there na, when he stole it...I don't understand how some of us reason, we go just enter a case, sit at the judgement seat and pass judgement after listening to a side.

After African queen, tuface has produced hits upon hits upon hits...this broke-as* person never find im bearing. even if tuface only sing African queen, the world would have forgotten him by now, and his African queen will just be a flash in the pan. Even if this one sing African queen, shey the song go make sense?

Ookay! it's getting more interesting, it seems you her even personally involved in the matter, you know insider story. Okay this is what I would advise, If the said member have evidence, concrete one, then she should help miss Kemi by providing her those undeniable evidences, It will justify her and it will bring the pastor to justice. Truth be told, even if the pastor is as guilty as charged, you still don't have right to run a story without evidence, that is only allowed in a banana republic. Let those making accusations come up with their undeniable evidence, people wont just believe your story because you said it sound so true or the person is an inner caucus, anybody can form inner caucus.Make your accusation with clear evidence, that the person accused will be helpless. The case of Apostle Suleiman is an example, Otobo is providing many clear evidence of pictures and bank statements etc. I'm not saying that the incident is true or false, but it is more believable. Nobody is against Kemi because they love the pastor or they hate her, it's just that she has antecedents of fabricating Huge, Terrible lies on people, her stories her always unbelievable, she should provide evidence in court and we'll believe her if they're concrete.

Who magnified it? If Kemi didn't take up the story, it would have been a dead story, because the supposed member doesn't have the influence to broadcast it. Now if she's an investigative journalist like she calls herself, she'll prove the story beyond doubt before coming to town with it.

But from her antecedents I'm sure there's even no member anywhere, our aunt just went mental as usual.

The mumu pastor will not know now that he is automatically ruin his own life. He think that he has the judgement now, it only God Almighty who have supreme control over all of us. Even at that can the pastor completly come out and said he is saint, i don't think so.
Some of you just hate pastors for no reason, it has nothing to do with what they do or don't do. If pastor do nothing now, Na you people go still come out and say, 'guilty as charged', 'silence is consent'. Maybe it's the tithe and offering many people are jealous of I no know. It's easy, if you want their money, go and start your own church, let see how far you can go without God's calling on you.

If GEJ as former President were to toil this path, then a good number of Nigerians should be behind the bar. GEJ and his wife were ridiculed, cursed. He was even tagged the most verbally abused President in the world. Yet, not an eyelid was raised.

Well, life is a learning journey.
The case of a politician is different, they accuse and counter accuse themselves. And nobody expect any politician to be of above board moral. There's no politician who doesn't face relentless insults and attacks, it comes with the job. Gej is not the only one who faced, PMB has been facing it pre election and he's at the Centre of it now, Obasanjo, Tinumbu Atiku all where accused rightly or wrongly so many times, they do the same to others. So politics is a dirty game. Everyone in it are ready to be dirty
Christianity EtcRe: Kemi Olunloyo: Pastor Ibiyeomie Has Acted Unchrist-like by mpowa(m): 12:55pm On Apr 02, 2017
It's easier said than done. How do you expect a pastor to be quiet when all is works is based on His character, if his character is questioned, the ministry is over. The worst is that this accusation was made when Apostle Johnson and Otobo's issue were red hot.

If I'm the one, I don't know what I will do, but I think I will take action, except the Holy Spirit says no.

Don't worry, my message is not for you. You probably haven't experienced freedom of expression in your life. You probably think it is right for a military officer to slap you on the road for no reason. You probably believe a rape victim deserve being raped because she dressed indecently, and you probably also believe that no one should say something bad about a pastor even if we are not sure if he is guilty or not. So you can do me a big favour by ignoring my post
Let's put things in perspective

In my own opinion, I don't think she should still be in detention, not because the Law wasn't followed, but because it's a pastor involved, he should try and temper justice with mercy. But I think she deserves to be punished... She desperately need someone to stop her. You guys should stop all these freedom of expression nonsense, people can't just open their mouth and destroy others because they want to either be famous or make money from other people's misfortunes. Freedoms of speech should be that you're spreading True_speech, if it's false speech, there should be a kind of punishment if this society will remain sane. People are crazy here, someone will just wake up in the morning, eat hot eba and that conjuring trash on people...it need to be stopped, because many people don't take advantage of the law against it doesn't mean it should continue... Even in saner clime that we're copying the freedom of speech from takes defamation serious. Some people say a speech is an armless expression. Do you know what they call a good-name? The Holy book says it's more precious than gold and silver. Someone will just destroy that, that you've built over the years in a single day.

It's simple, if you're coming out with any information, be ready to prove it beyond any reasonable doubt, if not, be ready to go take watery beans for a while.

They dragged her out to be used for their propaganda. Yet, his supporters will consider this a good move. Nigerians need to run away from religion en masse.

For the sake of God almighty, and his creations like Aragbe, ooni, our good Yoruba brother and sisters, we in the north refused to retaliate. You know what we can do. Don't take this for cowardice, those guys are now wiser and you won't take them unaware again.


Remember, northerners are usually first beaten, but come back more deadly.
So they'll kill all the Yoruba people? Abi what kind of nonsense talk is this one. Yoruba will be the last to kill, because they value lives, but we know how hausa/fulani are, life is like cows to them. They would've bitten more than they could chew. Fulani herds men attacked two people in oyo now.If Yoruba retaliate, they'll start shouting again.
