Nonsense! Are kings really special after death or immortal?. In first Samuel 28. Saul too consulted the witch to call Prophet Samuels's spirit, so does that make the person whose spirit is being summoned immortal? No and Nonsense.


Let them summon all the dead northern emir's spirits and ask for where oil is to save us expensive exploration cost. Same thing also for minerals.

Nonsense.

Straight to the point. Some might see this ranting but honest truth need to be stated the way it!

There has not been any deafening noise or protest against the economic lockdown we are experiencing due to the current lockdown imposed by the presidency over the Covid-19 pandemic mainly because the millions of civil servants across the federal, states and local government areas are getting paid for staying at home doing nothing for past two months or so.

You know why there has been no protest by them? Because whether you like it or not, the government at all levels are paying them salaries for not working for those period of time and so all other non civil service workers can go to hell

Imagine what would happened if the government had declared 'a no work, no pay' conditions due to the pandemic? Trust our civil servants to draw the sympathy of fellow Nigerian against the government at all level to resume work with immediate alacricity. There would have been protest across the length and breath of this country. That's when too much grammar that are not inside oxford dictionary supporting 'life must continue' stand of them

The truth is that a lot of Nigerians are selfish to the bones. Some don't value the economical welfare of fellow Nigerians. Just because you and your family are very comfortable doesn't mean every other person is!

Been in touch with some of my friends who are civil servants and a lot of them don't feel like getting back to work for meantime because to them, 'everywhere is still not safe due to the Corona pandemic as seen in daily figures released everyday by NCDC'

Imagine this very selfish, reckless and distasteful statement coming from some people because they are getting paid for not working or still have enough reserve to feed them and families but don't have any form of empathy for those whose livelihoods depend on daily income they get!

Is it not same America that has been the center of the Corona virus epidemic that has killed over 100,000 people now having their lockdown totally relaxed? Is it not same USA that we now have millions of people protesting on the street against racism with most of them not even bothering to wear facemask?

Compare that to our dear country where the wuruwuru livescore of Covid 19 figures are been dished out on a daily basis. Then you understand the selfishness of some people

Oh, you don't still know that we have been on technical lockdown since May 6th that Presidency announced partial ease?

Lets break it down

- Millions of students across primary, secondary, tertiary and even nursery/creche are totally on lockdown
- Airports that service millions of people on monthly basis is grounded
- Millions of legal related porfrssionals like lawyers, paralegal etc are grounded
- Millions of civil servants are grounded and so virtually no contacts to execute
- Interstate travels that supports millions are virtually grounded except those who are using strong head to do so

So in essence, the economy is on technical lockdown!

Don't get me wrong on the following
- Corona is real.
- Its important to keep safe.
- The lockdown was imposed by the Presidency
- Lockdown was necessitated to ensure the containment of the spread
- we don't have a strong healthcare system in Nigeria which was damaged by successive including the present one

The grouse here is the hypocrisy that stinks to heaven of our dear civil servants if they are not been paid for doing nothing for over two of stay at home.

And before you conclude whether it is hunger that makes me to write this 'ranting',

"The Minister claimed when the government asked ASUU to come forward with a payment system it (ASUU) claimed was better than IPPIS, the university teachers petered out."

If ASUU as association of intellectuals cannot rally round and develop an alternative payment sofware that captures peculiarities of university system as demanded by Federal Government then should stay on IPPIS until they shake off their intellectual laziness and provide better alternative. Simple!

landmark86:
Am foreseeing another lockdown in Lagos, Kano, Borno & Fct.

lemme ask you a question, how old do you think fani kayode senior( Femi's dad) would have been by now, had he still been alive? Abba kyari worked in Fani Kayode's Law firm when he came back from his scholarship-backed studies in the UK. Femi fani kayode, said he had known abba kyari for 40 years....same man is said to be in his 60s? Common.

Abba Kyari, the late chief of staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, was 67 years old when he died last night, PREMIUM TIMES can now authoritatively report.

Mr Kyari was born on September 23, 1952, according to official records obtained by PREMIUM TIMES. The records have not been publicly disclosed until now.

Mr Kyari died on Friday night in Lagos, becoming the most senior Nigerian government official and public figure to fall victim to coronavirus. The presidency announced his death shortly after midnight on Saturday.

His body was moved to Abuja on Saturday morning and subsequently interred at the military cemetery in the Gudu neighbourhood of the capital.

Although he had served as the chief of staff since 2015, and widely believed to be the president’s most powerful aide, little was known about his age and date of birth.

That led many media outlets to estimate his age, putting it at between 60s and 70s, and even 80s. While PREMIUM TIMES indicated in its first reporting of his death that Mr Kyari’s age was unknown, Reuters said he was in his 70s.

Some local broadcast stations like the AIT said Mr Kyari was born in 1938, an estimate that echoed the Wikipedia’s entry that said he was 81.

The social media was also locked in fierce arguments about Mr Kyari’s age.

But information obtained by PREMIUM TIMES from multiple records showed that Mr Kyari was born on September 23, 1952, a Tuesday.

He had his early and secondary education in Nigeria and obtained at least two degrees in England. First, he obtained a Bachelor’s degree at the University of Warwick in early 1980s before proceeding to the University of Cambridge for his Master’s degree in law. He was called to the Nigerian bar in the mid-1980s.


Indeed, throughout his five-year streak as Mr Buhari’s chief of staff, Mr Kyari did not receive birthday wishes that inundate administrative officials and politicians of his status.

Also, the press statements announcing his appointment in 2015 and his reappointment in 2019 did not also indicate his date of birth or age.

Tpharell:
I beg to differ completely here. The only reason why this is so is that we are not testing enough, period! Infact, compared to what Spain and Italy did at the fourth week we are not testing at all.

CoronaVirusRelo:
Smh

Seems Sanwoolu does not know the gravity of what's coming.

Ground Lagos, it's a trigger point. Ground activities.

If it comes full blast with this light precautionary measures, it's going to be disastrous.

I repeat, Sanwo should ground the state.

Our infrastructures and social welfare fascilities will sporadically escalate issues as it's not evenly distributed, equiped and over utilized, which will be a catalyst of the pandemic.

A stitch in time, ......

Since we are on the laws of the bible

Deuteronomy 21:18–21.

If any man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey his father or his mother, and when they chastise him, he will not even listen to them, then his father and mother shall seize him, and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gateway of his home town. And they shall say to the elders of his city, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey us, he is a glutton and a drunkard.” Then all the men of his city shall stone him to death; so you shall remove the evil from your midst, and all Israel shall hear of it and fear.




Sure i pray and hope that you will allow your stubborn son to be stoned to death. That would be nice see.
