WHERE ARE THE AMAECHI FRIENDS, LOYALISTS
AND SUPPORTERS? BETRAYAL OF TRUST...
When the chips are down then you’ll realise
whom your TRUE friends and supporters
really are, this is just the case with my
Governor (Gov.CRA) of RIVERS STATE. When I
took on him with my innocuous comments
amidst love, his goons, the busybodies and
sycophants misconstrued me. They called me
all sorts of names and painted me in bad light
before their “Oga at the top”, now where are
they in this heat? Are they suffering his fate
or, he’s carrying the cross all by himself?
Politicians should think…
First, it is good to fight. Even the Holy BOOK
(the BIBLE) agreed to believers being “angry”
if they’re badly bruised but the CONDITIONAL
clause is; “Do not let the sun go down in your
anger”. I call this, the break-up and make-up
model. Similarly, that same BIBLE said there is
time for everything; this is where one needs
to apply the “uncommon common sense”,
indeed common sense is NOT common, it is
the ‘sixth sense” but, hard to find. It is
expedient to fight and disobey when
necessary but know when to cease-fire; no
man has the monopoly of insults, disrespects,
witch-hunt, etc. It is gainful to know when to
leave a fight especially, when the ovation is
still loud for you. I guess my Governor missed
all these here, he was ill advised, perhaps.
However, he may have his salient reasons for
putting up a fight bigger than him. Although,
some lowlives were busy fanning the embers
for their self-aggrandize ment unknown to
him. Now, where are the advisers beating the
drums of WAR for him them? Guess they’re
having their cool.
When elders chastise, they do so with love.
Often times, they beat with the right hand
and receive you back with the left hand. Yes, I
know incorporation back into a fold after a
betrayal depends on; the willingness to
forgive and the willingness to accept you
were wrong, I also guess neither my
Governor nor his antagonisers would have
taken this path correctly. It is either one party
sought for PEACE initially and the other turned
down the hand of fellowship, or both parties
have decided to play dirty at the detriment of
the common man. Too often my people have
misconstrued POWER to be a tool to usurp
authority and flex muscles, too bad. Yes,
Governor Amaechi missed it ab initio but
forgive.
Thing is, my political leaders from the Niger
Delta are yet to understand what “divide and
rule” means in Nigeria. Our unity is
tantamount to doom for some so called elites
from the ‘greedy and born-to-rule-re gion’,
they will do everything humanly possible to
stymie our unity and dismember our political
common-fronts. Too bad my political leaders
prefers dissipating their energies and flexing
their ill gotten political muscles ONLY within
the region, they prefer to be used by others
against their brothers. Truth is, if it were in
other regions; their political leaders would
concertedly work in a common-front for the
common good of their people. Instead of
doing this, rather my people would prefer to
play the “stinking saint” of self-delusion;
they’ll want to appear to be Countrymen.
They’ll appear to be statesmen even when
they’re not, they want to ‘impress’ others at
the detriment of our people, how has that
helped our region and people?
Now, some born-to-rule bigots whose
interest is to make this Country ungovernable
have succeeded in planting the seed of
discord between the political rank and file in
the Niger Delta whilst, their region remains
unitedly conceited. I wonder when my South-
South leaders would learn to stop presenting
themselves to be used as the laboratory
animals (political animals) against each other
at alter of political greed that benefits their
instigators? When two South-South political
bigwigs fight, a non-Southerner benefits from
being the brain behind it. As we speak, the
heavens are telling and falling on Amaechi,
even the gods are angry. Poco a poco, the
Governors supporting my Governor are all
hiding their heads, why? After noising
everywhere and supporting him, they’re now
hiding and denying him already.
Nonetheless, RIVERS people are at the
receiving end in this directionless, shameless
and greedy fight of showmanship. I reiterate,
what is our collective interest in this fight?
Heed to wise counsel; “END THE WAR IN
RIVERS STATE”, make PEACE now that you still
had the chance. Sheath your swords, make
peace with all men, apologise where
necessary and move on. I’ll be direct and open
here, my Governor should retrace his steps
and make peace before water pass garri.
Where are the elders that gave you their
support initially, where are your counterparts
(fellow Governors) that appeared to be
supporting you? Particularly, where’s
Kwankwaso, Babaingida Aliyu, Uduaghan,
Chime, Lamido, Oshomole, Shettima, Fashiola
etc? Where are they? Are they on holidays or,
they’ve used and dumped you? Please sir, for
your own good, make peace and move,
there’s no trophy to be won.
This is my senseless sense again, harken.
Always,
MAOBUYE NANGI OBU

Jose Mourinho has signed a deal to become
the new Chelsea manager, according to a
report in the Sun newspaper.
- Hasselbaink: Jose is best option
Mourinho and Chelsea have appeared
destined to reunite for some time, with the
Portuguese repeatedly dropping heavy hints
about his future. The speculation was fuelled
when it was confirmed Mourinho would be
leaving Real Madrid, since when he has gone
somewhat quiet.
Mourinho was seen at Wembley watching the
Championship play-off final between Crystal
Palace and Watford on Monday and The Sun is
claiming that, during that visit to London, he
signed a contract to take charge of the Blues.
The report claims Mourinho has put his name
to a four-year contract worth £40 million,
with 'a senior Blues source' quoted as saying:
"It's official. Jose is a Chelsea man again!
Everyone is delighted he's coming back - the
club, the players and the fans. We are already
looking forward to next season; we are sure
it's going to be very exciting."
It is being claimed that Chelsea will unveil
Mourinho as their new manager next week,
following Madrid's final game of the season
against Osasuna this weekend.
Mourinho won six trophies when taking
charge of Chelsea between 2004 and 2007.

MAY DEVOTION
Day 29, Wednesday - The Luminous Mysteries
(In Thanksgiving)
The Transfiguration
Connecting to Jesus' glory
To set the scene for this mystery, we see
Jesus inviting Peter, James and John to
withdraw with him from the busy plain of
everyday life and come to a place apart—to a
high mountaintop. Pope John Paul II calls the
Transfiguration "the mystery of light par
excellence," presumably because during this
exalted event, the glory of Jesus' divine nature
glowed brilliantly through his humanity,
totally transfiguring Jesus: "[H]is face shone
like the sun and his clothes became white as
light" (Matthew 17:2).
The event dramatically reminds us that Jesus
is truly divine as well as human. The glory of
Jesus' divine nature is usually hidden by his
humanity. But now God's voice from the cloud
proclaims the full meaning of Christ: "This is
my beloved Son, with whom I am well
pleased; listen to him" (Matthew 17:5).
Writing about the Transfiguration in his
apostolic exhortation, The Consecrated Life,
Pope John Paul II offers this reflection: "The
Transfiguration is not only the revelation of
Christ's glory but also a preparation for facing
Christ's cross. It involves both 'going up the
mountain' and 'coming down the mountain.'
"The disciples who have enjoyed this intimacy
with the Master—surround ed by the
splendor of the Trinitarian life and of the
communion of saints and, as it were, caught
up on the horizon of eternity—are
immediately brought back to daily reality,
where they see 'Jesus only,' in the lowliness
of his human nature. And we are invited to
return to the valley, to share with him the toil
of God's plan and to set off courageously on
the way of the cross" (#14).
Application to my life today. Even if we feel
crushed, oppressed or dehumanized, it's
consoling to know that nothing can really
separate us from God's glory. By clinging to
God in trust and prayer, we, the branches,
remain one with the Vine (John 15:5), sharing
in the divine life.

in naija no dull moment.... 9ja sweet die

Orikinla: Thank you poster. May the power of the Day of the Pentecost manifest the infinite glory of God in your life and family. May the Holy Spirit guide and guard you 24/7 in Jesus Christ. Amen.

and with your spirit sir.... Thank u v. Vmch

TEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT PENTECOST.

1. Pentecost Sunday marks the day when the
Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles.
2. Pentecost Sunday occurs 50 days after
Easter.
3. The Bible records the Pentecost in Acts
2:1-13.
4. Pentecost comes 10 days after the
Ascension of Jesus Christ.
5. Pentecost is also known as "the birthday
of the Church".

6. Pentecost fulfills Jesus' promise to send
the "Counselor" and "Spirit of Truth" in John
16-5-15.
7. Pentecost launches the large-scale
spreading of the Gospel after Jesus'
ascension. Acts 2:41 records that after Peter
spoke to the crowd after receiving the Holy
Spirit, some 3,000 people were baptized.
8. The Pentecostal movement derives its
name from the New Testament event in Acts
2.
9. Jews also celebrate Pentecost, but not for
the same reason as Christians. The
celebration by Jews of Pentecost is to
observe God giving the Ten Commandments
on Mount Sinai 50 days after the Exodus.
The Pentecost in Jewish tradition takes place
50 days after Passover.
10. In Western Churches, Pentecost is usually
represented with the color red, which
symbolizes the fire of the Holy Spirit.

There was this man back in the eighties, he is from england on a fateful day he came out in the public and started abusing GOD.
After he has finished abusing God do you know what this man said as his concluding part
.

He said thank God..
What do you call such people
the bible in Psalm 14.1 said the fool said there is no God.

SEX, LOVE & FAMILY LIFE
Morally speaking, sex is an intimate
expression where its culmination reaches the
celebration of love, affection, and admiration
between two consenting spouses.
Sex in the moral sense includes: spiritual
implications, natural conjugal behavior and
the commitment to the implicit responsibility
of proper function within their own family
life.
Again, to love is to value. Two people express
and further celebrate their greatest value,
their love of one another through their
volitional act of conjugal copulation. Through
this act the two are open to life. They invite
new life into the world as their own.
Abortion is a visceral attack on both the
expression, the celebration of their love as
well as the commitment to the proper
function of family life.

Segeggs: Must they bow/kneel before something?

it is a sign of adoration and humility

The canonization
of the 800 martyrs of Otranto seals off
a 500 year process. On August 13,
1480, when Ottoman soldiers invaded
Otranto, the commander ordered them
to renounce their faith and convert to
Islam. The 800 men, led by Antonio
Primaldo, said they preferred one
thousand times over, to die, rather than
renounce Jesus, the Son of God. They
were executed.
Their beheaded and decapitated
bodies remained unburied for about a
year, until the Ottomans were expelled
from Otranto. Since them, they'e
venerated as martyrs.
After several historical searches that
confirmed the story, in 2001 the
Vatican recognized a miracle attributed
to the martyrs, the healing of a
consecrated woman who suffered
from metastatic cancer. The miracle
which paved the way for their
canonization.

Moral of the story ?

The Kano State Government is bent on
converting the scene of the bus station
bomb blast into an Islamic school. Governor
Rabiu Kwakwanso had earlier told the Igbo
traders and transporters who built and
developed the park to relocate to another
place to give way to another Islamic school
in the place. The governor, to buttress the
seriousness of his threat, had earlier
blocked the back gate of the luxury bus park
towards the New Road/ Ibo Road junction
and commenced clearing of the site and
building of sections of the Islamic school.
A day before the bus station blast which
killed over 65 Igbo travelers, the governor
sent some thugs and state security outfit to
the place to warn the traders and bus
owners to vacate the place immediately or
face bloody consequences. The Igbo
communities were preparing to send a
delegation to beg the governor to change
his mind on the day the bomb exploded.
Governor Kwakwanso is yet to either visit or
send any top government official to condole
the Igbos who lost lives and properties
including five luxurious buses in the inferno
but had visited Borno State and donated
N100 million naira to victims of Baga
incidence.
The Igbo leaders noted that on the day the
blast occured, none of the Muslim
indigenous workers at the site of the Islamic
school and other sites around the bus
station reported for work, fueling suspicion
that the locals were pre-informed about the
bomb blast . There is an allegation that
Governor Kwakwanso told aides that the
blast was Allah’s way of driving away his
enemies and paving way for the Islamic
school.
This was contained in a secret report the
Ohaneze follow up team to Kano set up after
the earlier visit of the Ohaneze leadership
sent to select Igbo leadership . The follow
up team discovered that there was no single
security at the luxury bus park as at the time
of their arrival and were worried that
another blast could easily take off in the
place. The team also discovered that
Association of Luxury Bus Owners( ALBON),
Kano State Branch, had already taken the
Kano State Government to court over the
park but the Governor defied the court and
went on with his intentions.
The Igbo leaders in Kano lamented that the
collateral casualty at the bus station could
have been less had the governor not earlier
ordered the closure of the back exit gate
which connected the New Road to Ibo Road
and as such when the blast occurred, there
was no way for the other buses loaded with
passengers to escape. The only exit being
the Tudun Wada Road which connected the
Airport road . The controversial bus park
was an empty land sold to Anglican church
fifty years ago and the church leased it to
the luxury bus owners who developed the
bus station to ensure greater security for
non-indigenous travelers in the religious
volatile state. The bus station is located in
Sabon Gari, an area mapped out for
strangers and non-indigenes . Therefore,
the attempt by the State Government to
forcibly convert the bus park to Islamic
school is unfair as there are other empty
lands all over Kano metropolis they can use
for Islamic school.
Earlier on the Emir of Kano, Ado Bayero was
under fire by elements within Kano State
Government and some notable contenders
for the Emir-ship throne for providing
palace guards to secure Ohaneze leaders
when they visited Kano two weeks before
the follow up team came. They derided the
Emir for providing security for the Ohaneze
chieftains, alluding that they should have
procured their President Jonathan to secure
them. The Emir equally sent his first son to
condole with the Igbos after the bloody bus
blast .
The follow up team reported their findings
to appropriate security agencies and sent a
report to the leadership of Ohaneze and
select Igbo leaders. The Igbos in Kano
lamented that in one year over 63 persons
have been secretly executed by Boko Haram
agents either in their shops, offices or
homes and if the number of those who died
through bombings is included, about three
hundred lives have so far been lost. They
called on the Igbo leadership to come to
their rescue or else they will bear heavy
arms for self protection.
It is expected that the Ime Obi Ohaneze will
deliberate on the matter in consultation
with Igbo leaders and if possible take the
matter up with the Kano State Government
and the presidency. The Igbo leadership
have asked the Ohaneze leader in Kano to
ensure that Igbos do not take laws into
their hands until the issue is resolved with
the appropriate authority. How quick the
Igbo leaders will act on this sensitive issue is
another kettle altogether.

It was perfect combination. Jose
Mourinho leading his special pack of
players to a tenth Champions League
triumph but it has been anything from
perfect for the Special One at Madrid.
Rumours of a split dressing room were
among the negative vibes from Mourinho
time at Madrid.
Madrid were so close to a Wembley final but
yet so far. An admirable 2-0 victory over
Borussia Dortmund was not enough to stop
the Germans from the second Champions
League final in their history.
With rumours that he will leave this
summer, Mourinho’s three year reign at the
helm of Madrid seems to have come to a
disappointing finish. Despite thrusting
millions into a squad full of world class
players, Mourinho couldn’t inspire Los
Blancos to that illusive tenth Champions
League success.
“Maybe not. I like to be where I’m liked,” is
what he said when questioned about his
future with Madrid. It seems as if Mourinho
has had enough of Madrid and Madrid
enough of him. Mourinho seemed to have
given up on trying to build a team from this
group of individuals.
This Madrid team has let him down. The
players have offered him a lack of support,
which is nothing like his time with Porto,
Chelsea and Inter Milan where he shared a
special relationship with the players. This
Madrid team and even their fans seemed to
struggle to adapt to the Mourinho way.
Mourinho’s time has been successful to an
extent. One La Liga title, a Supercopa and a
Copa del Rey and with a final against
Atletico Madrid to come, there is a chance
Mourinho will add to his trophy collection.
However, Mourinho will leave Madrid on the
back of his third successive semi-final
elimination. He has failed to deliver what he
was appointed for. The Special One’s time at
Madrid was ordinary at best. Three years on
from his appointment it seems little
progress has been made.

Rehnoy: Abeg bros them no fit. They can win, but turning the tide is definitely beyond them now. They should av scored like 2. But sha nothing is impossible.

kinda agree wit u ma broda
