Official price of dollar is 197-199. It is silly for anyone to think CBN sells dollars to anyone at N185 in 2016. Unfortunately, the handler of the pdp account knows most Nigerians obailalas are empty skulls.
Stop spewing trash, anything is possible with political backroom deals.
Don't pretend to be ignorant of such.

President Buhari does not need your pity, you are the one who must refrain from being gullible to watery and unfounded allegations that have no substance. Why is no one speaking on behalf of the PDP if there are no sinister motives especially on this matter? Nigerians will never regret kicking outvtge gang of looters from having hold on the nation's treasury. Little wonder that their fortunes have not changed one bit after months of being in opposition. A party built on silly propaganda is doomed to go into extinction.

Politics › Glasgow Mosque Imam Praises Extremist Killer by neocortex(op): 1:14pm On Mar 25, 2016
The imam said he "could not hide his pain" over the execution of Mumtaz Qadri
The religious leader at Scotland's biggest mosque has praised an extremist who was executed for committing murder in Pakistan, the BBC can reveal.

Imam Maulana Habib Ur Rehman of Glasgow Central Mosque used the messaging platform WhatsApp to show his support for Mumtaz Qadri.
Qadri was hanged in February after murdering a local politician who opposed strict blasphemy laws.


In messages seen by the BBC, Imam Maulana Habib Ur Rehman says that he is "disturbed" and "upset" at the news of Qadri's execution, before writing "rahmatullahi alai", a religious blessing usually given to devout Muslims and meaning may God's mercy be upon him.
In another, he says: "I cannot hide my pain today. A true Muslim was punished for doing which [sic] the collective will of the nation failed to carry out."


Religious guidance

Maulana Habib Ur Rehman is the most senior imam at Glasgow Central Mosque, a role which involves leading prayers and giving religious guidance and teachings.

The BBC has confirmed with members of the group that the messages come from the imam.


Qadri was employed as a bodyguard for the governor of Punjab province in Pakistan, Salman Taseer, before turning on him in 2011 and shooting him 28 times.

After the shooting Qadri reportedly told journalists that he was "proud" and that he had killed a "blasphemer".
Who was Qadri?

Mumtaz Qadri said he was proud of what he had done

Trained as an elite police commando and assigned as Salman Taseer's bodyguard
Shot Salman Taseer 28 times at an Islamabad market in January 2011 and was sentenced to death later that year

He claimed it was his religious duty to kill the minister
Qadri was lauded by religious conservatives, and in his first court appearance was showered with rose petals by supporters. He never expressed any regret for the killing

How Punjab governor's killer became a hero
Pakistan has some of the strictest blasphemy laws in the world, which can carry a potential death sentence for those judged to have insulted the majority religion of Islam.

Human rights campaigners and liberal politicians, including Taseer, have criticised the laws as draconian and believe that they are abused to target minority groups.

The laws do, however, have mainstream support in the country and an estimated crowd of more than 30,000 people attended Qadri's funeral earlier this month.

Imam Maulana Habib Ur Rehman told the BBC: "The assassination of Salman Taseer is widely condemned.
"Whether I agree or disagree with the views he expressed, as an Imam and as a human being I express abhorrence at the manner in which he was executed.
"The execution was not in accordance with Islamic teachings and principles."

'Grotesque'
Lawyer Aamer Anwar has called for reform at Glasgow Central Mosque.
He told the BBC: "To describe a convicted terrorist as a true Muslim is grotesque.
"Let's be clear: Mumtaz Qadri was a terrorist. He was no national hero and he was no martyr.
"These views expressed are grotesque and whether done privately or publicly they should be condemned unequivocally.
"There's real concern within the community that if this is an imam expressing such views, then what is he expressing to our children."


Salman Taseer had angered some people in Pakistan by calling for reform of the country's blasphemy laws
In further messages, the Imam refers to Qadri as "brother" and says that, by killing his employer whom he was paid to protect, he was "carrying out the collective responsibility of the ummat," or Muslims as a whole.
His execution, he says, "is a collective failure of Pakistani Muslims".
Imam Maulana Habib Ur Rehman is challenged by others in the group who question why he is speaking about a convicted murderer in such glowing terms.


'Nazi' comparison
The Imam also likens Qadri's actions to those fighting Nazi occupation during World War Two.
"Just when France was occupied by Nazies [sic], French did all they had to in order to protect their nation," he writes.

"They were national heroes. Hanging Mumtaz Qadri has raised serious questions about Pakistan's independence."
To describe a convicted terrorist as a true Muslim is grotesque


Aamer Anwar, Lawyer
And he links his execution to the issue of Pakistani nationhood.
"The issue is not of an individual. The issue is of national identity and Islamic spirit."


The WhatsApp messages are the latest controversy at Glasgow Central Mosque, which is the largest place of worship of any religion in Scotland.
The mosque was plunged into turmoil last month when seven members of its executive committee resigned amid claims of intimidation by more conservative figures at the mosque.
The allegations were denied by those accused.

Glasgow Central Mosque
There is said to be a long-running contest at the mosque between more traditionalist figures and those, including the seven who resigned, who would like it to be more inclusive of women and non-Pakistani Muslims.
In January, The Herald reported that Glasgow Central Mosque had donated money to the orthodox group Tablighi Jamaat, which some argue promotes an extreme brand of Islam.


Mr Anwar said: "There needs to be diversity, there needs to be equality and they need to open it up.
"We're not living in Pakistan, we're living in Scotland, and we need to see the values and ideas of the people of Scotland [at the mosque]."

Glasgow Central Mosque did not respond to requests for comment.

I agree with you that he can't be said to be innocent or guilty, but
you must know that so many crimes are being swept under the carpet
in Nigeria.

It is even more worrisome that law enforcement agencies usually will not do
their job until complains are aired on social media.

I see social media as a toll that forces authority to carry out investigation,
if nobody talks, no one will act.

Even before the school released it official statement, past students on social media attested that the man is a good teacher.
Whenever rape or molestation cases arises, the men are always the first victim. I am just happy he is vindicated now. I still push for sanity on social media. Let there be capital punishment for libel cases such as this.

will prevent any snitch from speaking at this particular point.

@ neocortex u were being sarcastic d oda tym come n see dis
The story is not yet over, in fact it is unfortunate that other students will be defending
the man even though him being investigated is for their own protection.

Mind you being an excellent teacher does not preclude him of being guilty.

This case reminds me of catholic priests abuse scandals where people know it
is happening but would rather keep quiet or even defend the abusers all in a bid
to save the church.

Until proper investigation is done, the man can't be said to be innocent.

martyns303:
From my observation of society, whenever a rape/sexual assault issue is brought up, the guy is immediately taken to be guilty.

The person who is first to report a matter is always deemed innocent until the second party counters. I am not here to defend the man, but at least lets give him the benefit of doubt else we are no better than people who set someone ablaze when we hear screams of "theif theif"

1. The man had said he doesn't stay in the school, contrary to what was reported, and if he doesn't stay in the school what were the chances of him seeing the girl at late hours?

2. According to the report he was drunk, the man says he doesn't drink.

3. Even more interesting is the fact that he doesn't teach junior secondary.

The question now is, why then would a kid lie against him or accuse him of sexual assault. What is her motive or gain? Did she actually say she was sexually assaulted or that the mom is misinterpreting things? Isn't that why we have police and courts?
I don't know what you gain from defending pervert, are you also a teacher in the school
to know exactly who the man is, because he says he is innocent, he must be innocent.
This is the most ridiculous defence I have ever read.

In as much as I stand against rape n sexual involvement of underage, I must say we shud be careful wit such accusations, teenage girls in puberty, usually tell lies. N i av seen cases were all d evidence of rape/ child molestation looks glaringly tru but d fact is dat de were lies just to gain attention n satisfy selfish motives.

It's gud d teacher has come out to rebuke dia allegations, at the end of dis case, if d teacher is found wanting, he shud be sentenced, but if he is innocent, d girl shud be sent to a juvenile jail n d father made to forfeit all his property/ wealth.

I hate rape/ child molestation
I also hate lies/ blackmail.
There is no point adding the bold lines,
just say it the way you feel it, the man
is innocent and the kid must be jailed.

So because it just random criminal rpe that happens oftenly, it shouldn't attract much media attention and condemnation like ese's case?....
I have not seen anyone defending rapists except you and your likes,
someone abduct a minor , sexually abused and refused to release her
with the support of his religious leaders and you expect everyone to keep quiet.

As I have told others, kidnapping and rape is a crime, if you don't want
to be condemned don't engage in crime.

I still don't get why someone will be justifying rape by claiming other people
commit worse crime.

Would you have been happy if the media and everyone kept quiet on ese's case
so that she never got released ?

The difference is that no one will defend this man, if it were to be

1. They do it too in the south
2. There are worse criminals in the south.

Why not condemn the criminal act instead of pointing fingers ?

love each other.

We all know that criminals are everywhere but it is unfortunate
that some people will write a long epistle to exonerate the criminal
