What is the price? and location please

OP, i have been tryying to call your number. it's not going through

for the record Bishop Oyedepo apologised a day after the incident. He said he went too far but was

Bliss4Lyfe:
OBJ deserves award from NDA and not Akpabio. Nothin one no go here from this fascist party, the tribalist call ACN.SHM

Actually OBJ deserves the award, As a soldier.
Akpabio does not, this has nothing to do with tribes so don't make it so

All these folks saying T.A liberated and T.A is doing a good job obviously don't know what they are saying.
Am from Abia and can confidently say that T.A Orji is unarguably the worst governor in Nigeria. He has done almost nothing from his first term till now except change parties and blame his political benefactor,

violation no matter how it is done is very criminal, that said, if the violators can be found using their voices and legs from the video as soo many people have said here, then it should be easier to find the gal or people who know her, as her face can be seen in the video. btw, i hv not seen d video and don't think i want to.
some people have allegedly been caught (maybe by reason of the video), why is it that finding the identity of the gal is proving sooo difficult??

Abia state has fallen into the hands of touts and area boys. There is a total lack of control.  Every tom, dick and harry does as he pleases. There are soooo many task forces in Aba and Umuahia, each collecting all sorts of ridiculous levies.The Governor lacks the ability lead the state. The government he heads looks so visionless. It is appalling.

the man has not done anything in Abia. He lacks ideas on what to do and his cabinet is full of recycled politicains.

my gosh!!! can't believe some of these posts. whats wrong with Fashola expressing hes opinions on presidential debates? @beaf, what exactly is your problem? you keep making references to akpabio and amaechi. have u ever been to akwa ibom or u just listen to the glossy adverts and documentaries sponsored by akpabio himself?
If these presidential aspirants know they are worth their onions, let them subject themselves to debates simple.
let all these folks leave fashola alone

most of the folks here are actually missing the point. for a serving president to call other "leaders" in his country rascals because they are not members of his party, then he must have a huge problem.
GEJ should focus on developing Nigeria. Fashola has a right to protect his party as long as it is by legal means. I guess the debate is legal.

for those throwing akpabio's name around ,they had better shut their mouths because they probably don't know what they are saying. he most definitely is not in the league of fashola, chime or amaechi.

kedukc:
The Dunce: T. A. Orji(Abia gov), the state has become a laughing stock under his watch, sub-zero industrial production, unemployment, intimidation of political opponents, decay of virtually every social service in the state, need i add that educated young people have turned to kidnapping etc. just to boost their cv?
It's pathetic, coming from a state that used to boast of Manufacturing, Breweries, Media outfits, an oil-producing state, fabrication base of the defunct biafra, where tanks were built as far back as '67, PATHETIC.

you hit the nail on the head. T.A Orji is unarguably a catastrophic failure. there's no atom of change in Abia state in his 3+ years as governor. All he does is give very flimsy excuses and reasons for his failure.
he ranks high on my list of villains in the year 2010. others include SLS for his nonsensical policies, most of our senators and reps, NFA

heroes include, peter obi, sullivan chime, rotimi amaechi, fashola and some more

El Rufai is back and so what?Why all the noise? Nigerians never cease to amaze me. The man is s facing corruption charges and ran away because of it.Then he says he is being persecuted.Others do it and we say they are guilty. If he is as innocent as you all say he is then prove it.

i think analyticals post is straight to the point. it's actually like the best i've seen so far.

@david i don't support one sided teachings be it prosperity,the holy spirit or others.We should take the gospel as a whole.
In zechariah 1.17,God says thru prosperity shall my kingdom be spread abroad.
We as christians,ought to be well rounded financially,physically,spiritually and all others.
Your concept about time is interesting. Why do you use the internet to spread d gospel?Christ didn't use it so you shouldn't use it also.Thats wat you are saying.
I believe christianity is timeless truth but timely methods

@david, i get what you are saying. In our walk with God ,He doesn't promise us problem free lives,true.What i meant when i said 'happy' is indeed joy. I think you're just trying to use english to make your point. True happiness stems from joy.
2) let me say that i have been to many churches at one point or the other.Even in the so-called prosperity churches,i've listened to messages that portray God as a consuming fire so many times. They do not only preach prosperity.
3)your third point misses the target very widely.Yes,i believe having a better spiritual life means serving God better.How can it not mean that?Paul had a good spiritual life and was working towards improving it daily so as to serve God better. Having a God spiritual life doesn't mean you won't suffer. You point is rather moot.
Let me also say that prosperity is very essential in propagating the gospel in these times.
We as christians should stop debating issues like this and work towards buildin the body of christ.

JeSoul:
Because I only see them on sundays? its not possible for me to know 1000+ people intimately. I haven't even finished knowing my own big family well self, talk less of others.
  My brother, you're mixing several things here.

-Church is not for the unsaved. The scriptures are so clear about this. Church is for believers to come together in fellowship and build each other up. It is the modernization of church that has turned it into an all-purpose social gathering for all kinds of people.

-Outside of church, I have zero problem associating with whomever. We are afterall to live like Jesus and be a friend to the destitute and hopeless. We are called to make disciples of all men. And after they are saved - this is when they should be going to church.
  Okay I think I know where you're refering to now. He said that in response to an article of a church that meets at a movie theater and all they were talking about was "God loves us and wants us to have a good, comfortable life etc etc" the typical prosperity gospel type of mentality. And David was simply trying to show the other side of God - that He is also a consuming fire. Hope that makes sense? thanks!

you don't have to know all the folks in ur church,what of the few who may be around you at times?They may live around you,work around or do other stuff around.That they come to church only on sundays don't matter.You can encourage to grow their christian life,invite them to bible study,and stuff. Who knows you might be the person who they need. IMO
true church isn't for the sinners because it's supposed to be d body of christ.But if a sinner happens to be in church,it is our duty to help lead him to christ.
There have always been sinners in and around the church even in d time of paul.
It is not because of modernization that unbelievers are in church,it is because we the church are not doing what we ought to do.
I do agree that small fellowships are necessary,but i also believe that larger gatherings are also good and the bible doesn't say anything against it.

JeSoul:
Because I do not know them personally. People that claim to be christians are plenty everywhere. I'm not going to someone's house just because they have claimed to be a christian.

  You're absolutely right "atittude" matters but if you've read through the thread, you must've seen that it is the size of churches these days that brews a lot of the problems we have. Again I have continually challenged people to show me from the bible how large churches are profitable - when infact we see just the exact opposite.

---

 I don't think David insinuated anywhere we should be living miserable lives as christians. What he is speaking against is the "prosperity movement" and "word of faith" crowd that preach blessing blessing blessing and no sacrifice. Yes we serve the Most High God, but nowhere are we promised we will live a fairy tale life - infact just the opposite again, we are told we should die to ourselves and pick up our cross.

@jesoul,my question is why you don't know them personally?We are talking of true christianity here,right?Jesus went to the house of publicans,tax collectors and other 'wrong' people.did he know them personally?Yes there are many sinners in church today,but what makes you think the other person is an unbeliever when you've made no move to know them?
Maybe i misjudged what david said,but correct me if am wrong,he seemingly down played God being a loving God when talking about God being a consuming fire.(think it was somewhere about the cinema church)

@davidylan, reading thru some of your posts,i think that you make God seem like a God who doesn't want us to be happy. Our goal as christians is to serve God with all we are.That includes all we have. I believe that having a better spiritual life as a christian means that we are serving the most high. God is a consuming fire but also a very loving God who wants the best for us all.
@Jesoul,you say you don't go to houses of strangers.Why is someone in your church a stranger?I take it that after service in church,you pick your bible,look for your friends,chat with them and off you go. If everyone in church does that,then we all remain strangers in the house of God. The problem is not the size of the church,it is the attitude of people in the church.
The bible does not in anyway condemn large congregations. We should stop trying to twist scriptures to fit our own ideologies.

Beats me the way most nigerians think. Don't see any big deal about GJ meeting obama.
Some bloke says it gives him legitimacy.Funniest thing i've read today. Wasn't it the same rigged elections that made him VP? Very twisted way of reasoning.
I'll only support GJ if he can deliver.

the real stumbling blocks to Nigeria's change are not our corrupt leaders but 'cowards' like amarilo and the rest. the people who prefer the status quo to positive change, those are the real problems of Nigeria. people who prefer what they have now to the strains of change.
we can't listen to them anymore because its high time Nigeria changes.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

so are so many other young Nigerians. if that was the criteria for becoming a chief then so many others should have been made chiefs. i always thought that people who were honoured with chieftaincy titles were those who had in one way or the other contributed to the community. this is just one case of money changing hands

jokers we have as traditional rulers!!!! what has he done to get a become a titled chief? can't these traditional rulers do something useful and stop throwing titles around?

D'banj a chief? mchewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!

(b)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if Nigerians keep thinking like this, we won't move forward. these so-called religious leaders are just bent on holding us back. if it will take a woman to turn the tide's of kwara and Nigeria for good, then let her rule.
Nigeria is a secular state so what the heck are these folks talking about?

for the man who talked about a female governor spelling doom for the state, that is very hilarious, the man should go check himself. when they have no useful thing to say the start talking about doom.

i think this is a wrong decision made by the CBN governor. whatever the man's reasons are, the decision just doesn't make sense.
i've got a few questions:
does the CBN have the power to do this?
how will this sanitize the banking industry?
what positive effect will it have on the banking sector?
does it affect banks that are not in the stock market i.e. private banks like ETB?

Theblessed:
[b]B a l o n e y!

If Nigerian men are not cowards what are they, then? Siddon dey look, hey? Siddon dey look for the Ethiopians or the Egyptians or who to do the dirty job for them? Or for we women to carry Klashnikoff to Abuja while they watch, eh? I wonder who's on the throne at Abuja, na woman?

You came here to educate us about the meaning of the word coward when you do not understand the meaning, yourself.

Yes, it means lacking in courage and, what is courage? The ability to do something - or ability to do something that frightens one. Oh, did I hear frightens? It also, means lacking the strength to do something in the face of pain and grief. Obviously, pain and grief are frightening experiences, ain't they?

So, what are you talking about?

Now, tell me (aside, those already in the Military because, they are conditioned to do so!) how many Nigerian men would volunteer to go to high hills and mountains in order to strengthen our Country? Count them? I mean, going to Abuja to challenge the powers that be - certainly, that would be a frightening nightmare for most of them!!!!

Until you are able to answer these questions then, you'd know who should be doing the dirty job! Let them show the initiative and see whether Nigerian women would support them or not, before you start defending the indefensible, as such acts can only promulgate and have promulgated stagnation in every aspect of our lives in this Country.

Please, help build Nigeria by criticizing the evil in it - that way you contribute in your own small ways to change in our blessed Country. The problem with some of you is that, you worry about your image and how other people would perceive you on here but, that has a lot to do with confidence, I understand! To that I say, don't worry about receiving negative remarks about your views because, that's what Democracy is all about. If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen!

People will always criticise you, good or bad and they don't have to like you, do they? Or do you like everyone on here on N/L, yourself?? Obviously, not - so don't expect everyone to like you then, because, it's natural for people to dislike/hate. Please, chew on this and help make a change with your fingers and vocals if you can because, you are a human being and you must be heard.[/b]

welcome back . was actually wondering where u have been.
you made some good points here but i do not totally agree with them.
in the first bolded part, i take it that u are referring to taking up arms or dieing for your country. all over the world, several revolutions have taken place, but first a breaking point has to be reached. it took hundreds of years before the masses actually reached breaking point. the nigerian case must not be bloody. we don't have to take up arms to turn this nation around.
come to think of it, how many 'oyibo' men will agree to go to the high hills for the sake of their countries?

second bolded part, u have always been talking about gender inequality, why do u have to wait for the men to start it first? i believe we are equals, so it won't matter who starts, will it?

for the last bolded part, there is too much of talk going on about the evils of Nigeria and that will not solve the problem. It won't even reduce it.

otukpo:
i have always said it that Ohakim is a confirmed thief.

He is just seeking relevance unjustly.

When we talk of performing governors, his name shld be at the bottom, next to Alao akala.

He is just a mistake in that govt house.

well i don't think he is worse than the governor of Abia state.maybe he should be above T.A Orji

Kobojunkie:
OK! Let us go with your NOT believing women are inferior, but don't you agree that you are in the minority, when it comes to Africa, and Nigeria in general? I mean there is no need for us to feign ignorance of this problem, even at this time. Women are generally considered inferior in our society and the womenfolk are still fighting that to a greater extent than their european and western counterparts.

About who a real man is, I still believe society creates these ideologies and society can best answer that question.

I may actually be in the minority as u say, but women are also culprits in believing that they are inferior. Maybe they are taught to think like that.
if you think yourself to be lower than someone, that person will consciously or unconciously treat u as a lower being. i think that is what happens in most cases.


for instance, when theblessed is talking about real mean standing for something, i believe that since she is shouting for equality, real women should also be involved. so both men and women are to blame. so when u say there are no real men. it also means that there no real women! (logically).

who makes up the society? its you and me, people, so these ideologies are made by humans so they have to be defined by humans. so the society that should define real men is us.

Theface200:
The reason why the igbo want the niger delta is that, they igbos want the oil .

another ceap talker! who fills ur heads with all these? we should be thinking of better things

Theface200:
if an igbo owns a company, what is the percentage of the non igbos in it less than 4%. that why the film sector is the way it is.

what do u actually mean? you are not making sense

interesting,

ladej:
my brother, what is wrong is wrong. Nigeria is a sovereign state and although huge cracks are evident in the socio-political system amongst other things, IT IS STILL A SOVEREIGN STATE. it is pertinent to note here that according to the US authorities the flight was from amsterdam NOT lagos and that is a fact. 2 flights were taken, one from lagos to schiphol, the other from schiphol to detroit. my point is there was nothing a US marshal could have done in the flight from lagos to amsterdam anyway[as the plan was to detonate the bomb on the final descent. why not install US marshalls on ALL direct flights to the US, if they are serious about the threat. only ARIK air currently fly directly to the US from naija, all other flights are connecting flights. what is wrong is wrong, even if it seems right.

well spoken!
