nerodenero: I think the announcement of Lagos being the location for keeping these extremists is a diversion.The government can be so stupid to announce such a location when we all know the lapses in our security system.Maybe the location is elsewhere.

You make an excellent point. Someone at DSS/SSS may have intentionally leaked the story to the press. LAGOS may be just a cover story while the actual facility maybe somewhere else like deep in the jungles of another state. Or a safe house owned by DSS/SSS somewhere else.

The conspiracy theorists here really make me laugh. Is LAGOS not a Nigerian state? If the FG decides to open a secret detention facility there for those dogs, then so be it. Personally, I think the choice of LAGOS is an excellent idea. There are multiple secured facilities owned the intelligence services and the armed forces. And security in LAGOS is top notch compared to most states. You guys need to relax and stop pissing in your pants.

An assertive lady for a GF: nope. For a wife: HELL NO.

[quote author=Kilode?!]They need to add SSS and that silly Council Of State to that list.

SSS milling around every State House in Nigeria is an aberration for a federal system. Guard the president and stay with him. States don't need SSS operatives hanging around Government houses, we are not at war.

Stupid military creations like the SSS and Council of State should have been scrapped or reorganized a long time ago.[/quote]Are you for real? The SSS is tasked with the responsibility of protecting the President, too govt officials, and their families. How the hell do you expect them to protect these people if they're not stationed at these places.

I guess the US are at war with the Secret Service permanently stationed at the White House, the British with Police Special Branch at 10 Downing Street, or maybe the Russians with the FSO at the Kremlin. Dude, get real.

[quote author=Mrs.Chima]Some of the threads opened about looking for wives didn't mention any age. However, there are single men complaining about not being married for whatever reasons.

My last comment still stands.[/quote]Uhmm..that will be a first. 'cos I'm yet to find any thread of men complaining about not getting married.

mexxy1: Personally, I think the US has taken this too far. This is the height of desperation from them. Why wasn't the nutrition appointment given to Kim, the US candidate and 'a Public Health expert'?
NOI is an economist and Kim, a Health expert. Why give a job to tackle malnutrition to an economist when there is a health expert available?
.......... I rest my case.

Agreed.

Lovely lady. I pray she gets the job.

kingoflag: Nah, seeing folks like Ocelot, I'd say "completely" finished.

Lemme get this straight..so Nigeria is finished cos I demanded for evidence? Wow...just wow..

Demdem: Moronn, no one is saying that the retardeen isnt the president. we will live with that till 2015 at least so there is no big deal about that. We all saw the fisherman misyawn on NTA and u are now asking us to pick up the clip from NTA? is that possible? are u this daft? Ode buruku.
av said it before, the kai-kai drinking president doesnt know how to talk and its definitely hunting him now. Must the sttupid man talk at all? Abati himself didnt even deny the retardeen's comment on NTA, why didnt Abati qoute the fisherman Verbatim as was said on NTA? instead he prefers to tell us what the retardeen meant. who are u to be asking us likewise? u av decided to be fooled by Abati so remain being the foool. Iddiota

Boy you must be high in the stupids. Did I specifically ask you to go to NTA's office? And even if I did, are you not supposed to back up your accusations with proof? And last I checked, the printed media would've had quotes of the president's speech.

So whine all you want, but it isn't going to move a hanging pant, talkless of bringing down the president. Feel free to jump of a cliff while you're at it.

Bloody fool.

Demdem: Pls shut it. Did u watch the programme live on TV? It was aired on TV, i heard it and a number of people from this thread did also hear it, so what else do u want. No one has said he heard the president on TV and he didnt say what we claimed, So u expect us to go to NTA and request for the tape or what. my friend, u have no point.
because Abati recently released a statement u think that one will hold sway compared to what the retardeen said himself.

No, you shut the Bleep up and read your post. You guys are the ones that accused the president of wrongdoing, and the burden's on you to provide solid evidence. But you've not done jack.

So keep ranting till infinity, but GEJ will still remain the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. You don't like that? Then go give a NEPA transformer a lap dance.

Demented monkey.

"Liability" indeed. Anyway, feel free to post your petitions or so. I'm sure the EFCC and co will file them in the appropriate cabinet: the dustbin.

maclatunji: In all your wisdom, you did not see that the likes of Beaf and Reuben Abati have resorted to name calling and refused to address the President's comment at the opening of the church. I guess the Likes of ThisDay, Prof. Itse Sagay, Femi Falana, The Guardian are reporting this story because it is false and it is YOU Ocelot that knows better.

Dude, where in the president's speech did he admit to requesting/demanding for the renovation, 'cos I sure as hell haven't seen any. And I did read the Guardian's report. Apparently, they were not present when the president made the request, and their report came from an unknown source and sure looks like hearsay. Oh btw, as renowned as the people you mentioned may be, they're also prone to make mistakes.

Again, this is a non-issue that shouldn't be given any attention. The lame accusation against GEJ won't win the ACN and their coke-sniffing godfather the presidency, cos they sure look very stupid now.

kingoflag: My friend the point is not if Gitto built a church or a billion churches or 10 Billion Mosques. Its not even if they built it in Karachi, Aba, Lagos, or Sokoto. The Point is THE PRESIDENT ADMITTED TO SOLICITING A GIFT FROM A COMPANY THAT DOES BUSINESS WITH HIS GOVERNMENT. This is against the constitution.

Now, go pick up a dictionary and find out the meaning of CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

Care to explain when the President confessed to soliciting for the church, wiseguy? 'Cos the statement from the president's office, and speeches made say otherwise.

So, unless you have actual proof, you have absolutely nothing against the president.

texazzpete: Why is the Church delving into politics? Why is this Anglican loudmouth expressing 'support for the GEJ administration'?

The Church in Nigeria is a BIG dissapointment, from the CAN president to this fellow.

The issue at stake has to do with conflict of interest and the impartiality of a leader being potentially compromised. This 'satanic' talk is really foolish.

And how's the church delving into politics? Gitto made a donation to a community, yet some idiot from the CAN calls for the president's impeachment just because he comes from there? The clergy have every right to defend the president on this one.

And seriously, would YOU have even raised an eyebrow if the same Gitto built a massive cathedral somewhere else?

alstacs: Ask Mr Presi
dent himself, or are you on planet Mars? His speech was live and he was proud he said so.

Mkay....and can you highlight ANY part of the speech were the President actually requested/demanded for the donation? Pls do feel free to post it and prove me wrong, earthling.

Gentlemen, I do not condone corruption in anyway. But, if you're going to accuse any man of wrongdoing, you MUST be ready to provide evidence that is SOLID and VERIFIABLE. Not some half-ass cheap unconfirmed accusation(s).

Oh well, I'm off.

[quote author=Omo_Tier1]Simply wow! Thats my reaction to some of the comments in here. In any sane society,serious investigation would have begun to establish whether the President have abused his office by soliciting directly or indirectly a gift from a company that have in most recent times won huge contracts from the government.

For those of you that see nothing wrong in this just 'cos others are doing it, I feel so ashamed that your kind abound in Nigeria. No wonder the country is retrogressing in every aspect!

Of all the needs of the people of Bayelsa, a 2,500 church is now a priority? How about a decent community center where both spiritual and physical learning can be undertaken? As a christian, I find highly disturbing that not even the leaders of the Angelican communion saw this act as inappropriate![/quote]Do you have definitive proof that the president requested for the donation? If yes, please post it, else the president has absolutely NO case to answer. No one at Aso Rock is going to lose any sleep over this lame and laughable allegation. But hey, feel free to send more petitions and type out more editorials/essays about this non-issue. Whatever makes you happy dude.

WORD!

olayinka1987: Then they should also embrace humility. If you come onto a Nigerian website and attack Nigerians I will attack you back. Why should Nigerians bend over and take it in the ass? I'm tired of bottom sniffing "Nigerians" that will defend every other African country before they defend Nigeria. Is Nigeria the only country that has fraudsters and drug dealers? Is the rest of Africa a bed of roses like certain people try too make out? Why is it okay for others to bad mouth Nigerians but when we do the same, we're automatically in the wrong? South Africans and Ghanaians were saying negative things about Nigerians so I replied . Does that make me arrogant for telling a few home truths? Am I the bad guy for that? No way.


I'm not one too chest beat but I tell it like it is. Nigeria IS the powerhouse of West Africa. If not us, who would it be? Ghana? Please!!! Ghana is doing well for herself at the moment but rich Nigerians living Ghana contribute greatly to their economy, this cannot be overlooked. Ghana is a small co
untry with a small population. There is almost as much money in the city of Lagos than there is in the entire country of Ghana. Now is that me hating or am I telling the truth? You only have too look it up on Google. Numbers don't lie. Who else is the powerhouse in West Africa if not us? Ivory Coast, Gambia, Liberia? not a chance. It's Nigeria. The only problem is we suffer from a disease called the Government. They're the ones stealing all the money. Nigeria has helped many countries in West Africa. Imagine all the money we have given Ghana over the years. When countries need help in West Africa they come too Nigeria. Fact. Call me arrogant all you want. I'm simply stating facts.

I'm humble but I'm not a doormat. Respect me and I will respect you. It's that simple.

Bastiger: Ehenn if dem dash church nko wetin happen?is the church named GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN ANGLICAN CHURCH?what kind of stupid thing is this,should this even make a headline in any of the dailies?there are many other salient issues which i feel should be dwelled upon instead of wasting time,energy and much ado on such a thing.okay,if he had declined the gift,would the construction company have dismantled the church?why didnt they even build the church in his father's compound make i see whether heaven go fall...nonsense.

Bros, well said

maclatunji: Read this http://www.peoplesdaily-online.com/news/national-news/33586-jonathan-under-fire-over-church-gift

Just clicked on the link. All I saw was a headline, no content, and zero comments. Care to explain?

dayokanu: Just look at your statement.. You dont have to produce anything? Imagine.

The president has been reported to make the error once again of speaking without engaging his brains like he normally does


And you are here throwing hissy fits

Dude are you sure it's not the other way round? Jeez, read your post again. You said the President requested for the renovation, then posted a report from a source (the Guardian) that posts another report from an unknown source, proof that the former wasn't even there when the president made the so called "request". Mehn, just give it up. This has got to be the cheapest and lamest smear campaign I've seen.

Dude, I don't have to post any source. Yours, and the response from the president's office, says it all. There are no ACTUAL QUOTES from the president, just a flimsy allegation and s report gotten from an unkown source that can't be verified. Until you provide SOLID proof(s), your allegation of wrong doing against the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria holds no water.

dayokanu: Can you post your own version cos this is what i see from Guardian


http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=82166:jonathan-gitto-long-walk-to-church-gift-&catid=1:national&Itemid=559

@ Dayokanu, plead the above post of yours again. The phrase "WAS REPORTED" is being used. That means the Guardian reporters were not even present when the president "made" the request, if at all he made any. So here's the question: can you post the president's ACTUAL STATEMENT, and the source?
You just shot yourself in the foot my friend.


Oh, while you're on that, here's a few more questions:
1) is the president the owner of the church?
2) is the president a member of the church's clergy?
3) do you have definitive proof from a reliable source that the president requested for the renovation from Gitto.

dayokanu: The president himself said he REQUESTED for a church from the company. Or are you saying he doesnt know what he is saying again?

That violates the constitution Simple.

If you have any case or facts against Tinubu bring it out and not hearsay

Oh pleeease, I've gone through the President's statement, and there absolutely NO mention of the president's demand/request for the church. Just admit it, you guys have absolutely nothing to hold against the president in this case.

Seriously, when did CSR become a bribe? This allegation is simply laughable.

This "case", if there's any, is SO straightforward. So it's kinda suprising that a number of posters on this thread are making a mountain out of this. if you want a case, here's one: why don't they investigate the donations made by governors for their Godfather/drug pusher-sniffer extraordinaire, Tinubu, for his birthday?

ACN's allegation against the President reeks of sheer stupidity. Does GEJ own the church? Nope. Was it given to him as a gift? Nope. Was the renovated church project part of Gitto's CSR? Hell yeah (and a good one). The president has ABSOLUTELY NO case to answer.

As for ACN, I strongly suggest they do a little more reading about Corporate Social Responsibility.

Well, 'got to work on an outdoor BTS at a remote site up here in the north. 'had to endure a back-breaking drive (no roads, just a bush track like one from National Geographic). 'turns out that the site's a nest for snakes. Even the locals avoid it at night. Well, at least I wasn't bitten. That would've sucked.

God forbid.

BTW @ noiseless de "genius" aka mumuye, what are these "evil intentions" or plans you accuse me of? 'just curious cos I'm reeally lost here

noiseless: Your tactics using fake "akpan, uche2005,igbo2011 and many more have failed so is this one, while you are going back to kwara state make an effort to take your fulani trouble loving neighbours go with you out of cross river state ok? whether you admit or not your intentions are even worse than one can ever imagine and there is no hiding place for you, not anymore the more you try to hide is the more your evil intentions get exposed.Your tactics using fake "akpan, uche2005,igbo2011 and many more have failed so is this one, while you are going back to kwara state make an effort to take your fulani trouble loving neighbours go with you out of cross river state ok? whether you admit or not your intentions are even worse than one can ever imagine and there is no hiding place for you, not anymore the more you try to hide is the more your evil intentions get exposed.

Son, your allegations are the lamest I've seen on this forum. First you accuse me of having multiple IDs, and then accuse me of being an indigene of a state (Kwara) I've never even been to? Seriously are you high on the stupids?

If you have an issue with Uche2005 and co, go meet them and get off my posts. Don't forget to take schitzo medications. Thanks.
