I blame her, she knows her country very well and still went ahead to break the law.

Two years jail term is too much, 3-6 months is enough.

Our own Tiwa savage sex tape went viral some months ago and nothing happened to her.

The sentence is a bit harsh true but this your analogy though.
Tiwa was a victim of blackmail. Totally different.

Phaantom22:
Enemies of progress, always reasoning from their shithole ��

He was making a lot of sense, until he spoke.

Massiveglory:
The hardship in the land has made the southerners become bold as the northerners.

Omisore is lucky this is not north. They would have beaten him to stupor.

What exactly has Omisore done wrong?

The onlybthing you said that makes sense is that the hardship in the country has made the youths bold.

But that you think Adeleke will make any difference reeks of naivity.

He is a politician pursuing his political ambitions. He didn't perform well as a Senator, and you think he'll perform as a Governor?

Aldasame congrats to Davido's family.
Hopefully he'll surprise Osun people and actually perform.

Supreme01:
Did wike say so or u r looking for some trash to talk? Was all the PDP Govenors present during the campaign?.What's wrong with som of u guyz self?

I was just wondering "werin 'consign' wike for Osun election again."
I understand Edo election but Osun Kwa?

Anyway, some people are not politically sound. While others are bloggers who just want to make sensational news.

Anyway, congrats to B-red, Davido, and uncle.

My father is a rich man and He has not bought a car for me. In fact I'm over 30 and I've never drove a car, not even my father's car. Even if he want to buy one for me, I will reject it. My father believes that his children should make their own money and use it to buy whatever they want, and I totally support it.
Sometime last year, I made enough money to have afford a car, but I didn't need it. I want to live a simple life. I noticed that some of my friends that got cars are no longer living simple lives and they no longer associate with simple people.
You see, Peter Obi lives a simple life and expects his son to live simple life like him so why should he buy a car for his son? Does his son even NEED a car? What the man did is a normal thing every rich man that live a simple life will do. I will do same to my children, and it doesn't make me a bad person.

You're still not getting the point.
If you're a rich and influential man and your children can't afford a car, then you're failed as a father. You failed to make them success-oriented.
Cos having a car in Nigeria is not a luxury but a basic necessity.

So if they couldn't afford a car, it's definitely not something to brag about, all in the name of being pious and disciplined.

While Mbaka might be biased about this issue, I realised PO might truly be stingy when he bragged that none of his children owned a car.

That makes him a failure as a father.
And he wants to be father of the nation?

gentlegenius:
Just because Peter Obi didn't sacrifice his money to him...
Nigerians Wake Up! It's time to #takebackourcountry.
OBI-dience is better than sacrifice.

Though Mbaka may be sentimental in this issue.
But PO is truly stingy even to his own children.

He even proudly said none of his children own a car as rich as he is.

There's a difference between prudence and clench-fisted.

Bobbyjay001:
I have never used a car in my life but planning to get one in the nearest future.

I have been planning to myself a Toyota car but the reviews I get on this wonderful brand is scary.

Check the pictures below and read reviews as per these cars' engine and give your honest opinions/reviews.

Honda and Toyota owners, o we to you.

I believe before you take any comment here seriously, you should bear in mind that buying a Nigerian used car is different from buying Toks and certainly much different from buying brand new.

So do your due diligence to know the category each commenter falls in before taking their opinion as valid.

shilenji:
Jerry was the good one to me o

This only expounds the importance of writers.

Naturally ad human beings, Tom should be our favorite. Why?

Tom is the cat that is meant to help you deal with your rat menace.

Imagine you are in a rat infested house, and all you have is the cat to help you over come your situation?

But some how the writers were able to convince us that the rat/mouse was the good guy anf the cat was the bad guy.

We go sha dey try deconstruct ourselves from this our manipulations.

jesusjnr2020:
Hmm...

One major reason is because God cannot commit to the church more than the church commits to Him.

It's the measure one uses that would be used to measure back to him.

Those in Bible committed everything, more or less, to God, hence God reciprocate the gesture and committed much to them.

But today it's very different as people in the churches, including the leaders, don't commit as much to God as they did in those days, hence God measures back sparingly to them.

God bless.

In the Bible God never needed everyone to commit to him before he performed miracles.
He only needed one person.

In the time of Moses, in fact Moses never committed to God, he even ran far away from Him but Gof had selected him by predestination to deliver Israel from Egypt. And through him the Bible mentions some of the greats miracles God performed.

During the time of Jesus, in fact they was more corruption in the church leadership in Israel than what we experience today, but that didn't stop Jesus from performing miracles.

Let's stop assuming God does not break his rules. In fact a miracle simply means God broke his own rules.
So he doesn't need commitment of everyone. He just needs a committed person/vessel some times, just a vessel (not even committed) at all, to petform miracles.

shilenji:
I don't even understand myself again o, all my life I have never fallen under anointing. Is it that I'm very stubborn? If you belong to this table please gather here let's know ourselves

If you've ever fallen under anointing,how does it happen?

I didn't use to.
Cos I expected to feel some thing spiritual and powerful.

But I noticed at some point I was always falling cos I wanted to feel anything at all.
And I realised I couldn't easily get myself back up once I fell. It felt like Sleep paralysis.

But I stopped falling when I didn't know what the significance was and no one could tell me cos I didn't feel any different after.

lalasticlala:
My wife and I welcomed our second child this morning, a baby boy. We thank God for safe delivery.

Oshey bornerboy. Owo meiji loke. Tuale!

donpapa:
Happy birthday Mr. Wellington. God bless your new year. Thank you for giving Wizkid a platform; dude remains a blessing to the world. We’re proud of y’all! Naija to the world

Well said.
I'm even happier for him that he met the wife that complements him.
Though I think his new found faith in Christ should not stop him from running his EME empire.
Cos Tunde Demuren and Toolz need him to get the business back in full gear.

There's a way you can find find salvation and they try to convince you not to have anything to do with the world/secularism.

But truth is, as long as you're alive in this world, you will deal with secularism. So it's in your best interest to know that salvation doesnt make you automatically an angel. Don't stop doing what God has blessed and gifted you to do. You can only augment it.

Even Kanye West and Justin Bieber are so blessed and prosperous after they found Christ cos they realised either by divine guidance or pastoral guidance that salvation isn't always meant to take away what you're blessed to do.
You simply need to fine-tune yourself.

Anyway, after my long epistle, I truly wish him a very jolly happy birthday.
Banky is one of my role models. He is truly blessed.

illicit:
U no get paid pass Wizkid sha

Maybe Davido because na him papa money him dey blow anyhow

Highest paid is different from Highest earning.
You can be highest paid and get only 5 gigs in a month say you charge 10m
That's 50m in a month.

While another artist charges 1m and gets 100 gigs in a month.
That's 100m in a month.

So you can do the math.

LeoDeKing:
I know it can only be Toyin Tofade.

We all know where these kind of names will appear on the international scene.

But when you talk about crime...

Table shaking is a hobby.lol

Nigerians especially Igbo and Yoruba are the ones painting the country good in the diaspora especially education, tech, entertainment and politics.

But unfortunately same yoruba and igbo are also painting the country in negative light for commiting various crimes in the diaspora.

But we all know this is because the hausas/fulanis who form the Cabal and rulers of Nigeria are the problem.

If the rulers can provide an enabling environment. Most Yotubas and Igbos won't have any reason to even travel out of Nigeria talk less of committing crimes.

Hausas/Fulani are the problem of Nigeria.

They know they have little to offer in terms of IGR and true leadership. But unfortunately the Westerns empowered them to rule Nigeria.

The very day power shifts from Hausa/Fulani to Yoruba or Igbo, Nigeria will experience the true meaning of Giant of Africa.

Pls this is not about who wins presidency but taking power from the Cabal.

In every organisation there are people called Stakeholders
In Nigeria as an entity, that position is mostly occupied by Hausa/Fulani because the Westerners played it so. They know the Northerners are the least threatening to them. Yorubas and Igbos are educated and progressive. But the northerners are the most uneducated and easy to manipulate.

What we have today is a system of British/US delegates manipulating Northerners.
And Nothtetners manipulating the rest of the country.

Ad long ad the Northerners are making money off it, they cannot see anything wrong.
The problem is in the long run.

While the Northerners are myopically seeing short tern effects. The westerners are seeing decades or century wide effects.

kponkedenge:
Scientific officers basically do research work. And it's weird you applied for a post and you don't even have an idea about the job itself.

How did you come to the conclusion that he has no idea about the job just cos he asked for likely interview questions and pointers?

You need Puma endorsement with the way you jump into conclusions.

mrphysics:
I like that H.E Soludo has a plan of how to get to the people. From ensuring touts do not harass people while government levies or taxes are collected to removing wastes from the street to visiting the correctional facilities. I am confident he will do something real during his first term.

He has 8 years to deliver.
Usually the first 4 years is for working. The next 4 years is for embezzling.

Let's hope his first 4 years prosper the hope people of Anambra.

The Tower of Babel

Most of us grew up with the story of how men decided to be a tower as high as the heavens.
And because man had one language then, they were about to achieve it.

elated177:
Not in all cases. However, in this case, it is.

Im sure you never knew it was referring to Peter dying by crucifixion.
If only you could learn to listen before jumping to conclusion, theres so much you just could learn.

elated177:
You should simply have accepted the simple and direct meaning of the statement, as stated in that portion of the Scripture.

Is the scripture always direct?

1. Have you ever been misquoted, misinterpreted?
2. Have you ever minsterpreted what some one told you or what you read?
3. Have you ever meant one thing but your expression was open to many other things?
4. Do you understand the basics of communication?

With the aforelisted questions, I believe we have all fallen into one or more or even all of these categories.

My intention for this post is simple, we all Have to build your comminication quotience.
We are presently in the Information age. For those who understand the various ages of man.

If you don't yet understand that there are various ages, then you have a lot of research to do.

There has been the stone age, iron age, bronze age, silver age, golden age, (platinum age) , jet age and presently information age.
This thread is essentially about the present information age.

Information is a factor of commutation.
Communication for those who understand is a 5 phase process;

Sender- encryptiing- interpreter- de-encrypting- receiver.

This forms the basis of all the issues, divorces, wars, ploutical and religiosity in the world.

I believe every one at this age should study and become an expert in communication simply because;

1. If not, you will fall for every miscommunication.
2. You will confuse fake news with reality.
3. You will continue to repost BCs without any reliable source.
4. You will believe no else is right except you. Not knowing that you're the victim of miscommunication.

PS: We have all been victims of miscommunication or been the one that miscommunicated to others.
Likewise we have been the ones who corrected others and salvaged other from being victims of miscommunication.
Do share your experiences for the benefit of us all.

Hismasterpiece:
Jesus was giving Peter a prophecy about the way he would die.

Exactly... being girded by another and taken where he wouldn't want to was referring to Peter's death by crucifixion.

elated177:
You should have just stuck with what is written in the Scriptures.

You should have passed basic English and understood the difference between reading and explanation.

elated177:
The answer to your question is already in the Scripture.

You could have simply shared the answer.

Most assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish.” This He spoke, signifying by what death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, “Follow Me.”

John 21:18-19

LordReed:
No.

You don't believe in dark powers- native doctors, ritualists, witchcraft?

I need you to think about it before replying. Discussions should not be just to defend your position but I ask to know if you've ever experienced something beyond the ordinary, either good or bad.

LordReed:
I would like to cut to the chase, please no rigmarole, just present your BEST evidence for the god you believe in.

Do you believe there's a devil?

Ujahson85:
Before going to the East for my marriage introduction, I was skeptic because of what people do say about marriage in the East(Igbo land). But to my surprise the list giving to me was far from what people do say. Their marriage also wasn't as expensive as some part of Benue state where I came from. I was giving 3 list to choose from one or the one that is best for me.

For Anambrans, don't worry their marriage isnt expensive, wait till it's time for burial ceremony. Pray make you no get high BP.

Ademola47:
Some animal (chicken precisely) rights activists are now in Ibadan.

See the billboard spotted at the front of State Veterinary Hospital, Mokola, Ibadan this afternoon...it clearly reads "STOP CHICKEN CRUELTY NOW"

What do you think?

All na format.
Him wan use this billboard collect better contract.

Even him dey chop chicken after posting the billboard.

obonujoker:
No child of God will engage in such...

Are Christian husbands and wives children of God?
And are husbands and wives not expected to engage in sex/love-making?

Then there are chances in this social media age they can video themselves in the act. Some times to spice up their marriage. Read Songs of Solomon for more details.

So this message is for everybody.
And I truly support this.
Cos you never can tell where what you recorded privately can end up publicly. Either by loss of the phone or by plane blackmail.

Righteousness2:
GOD'S Standard from the beginning remains One man one wife.
GOD'S Standard is HE hates Divorce.

Jacob, Solomon , Religion, Society or whoever are not the standard. The Word of GOD is the Standard .

Read Matthew 19: 4-9 to know GOD'S Standard!

And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them Male and Female .
(Not Male and Females or Vice versa)

And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his Wife(Not Wives): and they twain shall be one flesh?

Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?

He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.

And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

Anything apart from GOD'S Standard is SIN. It is Fornication, Adultery and Man/ woman Decieving themselves!

When David murdered Uriah just for his wife Bathsheba, this is what Prophet Nathan said God told him;

2 Samuel 12: 7-8
Then Nathan said to David, “You are the man! Thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.
I gave you your master’s house and your master’s wives into your keeping, and gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if that had been too little, I also would have given you much more!

First this tells us God is not against polygamy.
Second David is not perfect just like we aren't.
God is not looking for perfect people but people who love and worship him.

Also considering almost all the Fathers of Faith including Jacob were polygamous. In fact the 12 tribes of Israel were products of 4 different women from Jacob.

True, Gods original plan is for 1 man to marry 1 wife.
But God does not consider polygamy a sin.
Provided you're not a Bishop and you can manage your household. 1 Tim 3:2

UselessBuharist:
What the prison authorities did was a mockery on the family of Mr. Ataga… What a way not to die.

So they pronounced her the winner of the beauty pageant so that she can live comfortably in prison or was that to further justify why she is looking fresher whenever she is taken to court?

This is pure wickedness, the forces behind this girl is so powerful but their end hmmm

I understand your shock to the news.
But if you've ever visited the prison, you'll realise that the prison is a correctional/rehabilitation centre of sort.
The implication of which is that there are various programs and activities including education, church/mosque services, sports, entertainment eg Pagentry, etc designed to help those that can be reformed among the prisoners to be reformed.

This really has nothing to do with Chidinma and her Cabal.

Duke007:
I am not a yahoo guy and did not intent not to repay, it's life drama, don't judge a story you haven't experienced.

I have worked with an MFI and we know these signs.
When a client is collecting loans from multiple sources, it's a major red flag.
Cos you're simply collecting from Peter to pay Paul and eventually it usually explodes cos you get choked with the repayment overlapping.

Anyway, my advice is try to pay up and stick to one MFI.
Usually they have various loan products to suit your needs and are designed not to choke you if you stick to one MFI.

All the best.
