Nothing new, one seminary got his long time girlfriend pregnant and was dismissed from the school. He came back, rested for a few years and reapplied.

He will become a priest very soon.

Okowa's Advert Celebrating A Convicted Ibori


It's save to say Nigeria has no good future with the caliber of leaders we have especially in the SS/SE. I can only imagine what barrage of condemnation will trail this act of wasteful and immoral display if the governor was from Lagos or any of the Northern states.

Progressive01:
I'd skip the pleasantries and get right to the point of this.

Nigeria is indeed a country of boundless absurdities, most of which were "invented" and found their way to the fore just after the exit of PDP which "ruled" the country for sixteen years uninterrupted.

The oddity in the attitude of the average political commentator we see today, especially from those who pitched their tent with PDP in the last election, stem more from the fact they are predominantly Christians and can't seem to stomach the thought of being led by a Muslim.

Their party leadership spared no expense in sowing the seed of religious intolerance in the hearts of Nigerians, through their dogged sponsorship of inflammable propaganda, the fruits of which we are reaping today in no small measure.

Yesterday, it was reported the Central Bank will be subsidising the dollar for intending Hajj pilgrims, and as expected, mixed, mostly negative, reactions have trailed the announcement and as expected, those people who've sworn to ensure the president is seen by all as a religious bigot have seized the opportunity to spread their propaganda throughout print and electronic media.

Time and again, we have seen that no sooner do they launch the attacks than history comes to the rescue of Mr President.

One could fault the President on a whole lot of fronts, why not. He's a mare mortal and as such must have his own imperfections. But one thing you certainly can't call the president is "religious bigot".

Here are but a few events in the past that shed light on exactly who the religious bigot is between mr President and his accusers:

1. FG Earmarks $11million for Christian pilgrims.

This was done less than a year ago. An interesting part is that the maximum amount entitled to each pilgrim is the same as what we have today- $1000 and at a lower rate of N160/dollar since the naira had more value then as opposed of N197/dollar today!!

The economy wasn't really faring any better then.

Pray tell, where were the voices of these later day activists/economists when this happened??!!

2. Buhari Cancels Govt Delegation to Hajj

Again, to show his "extreme love for Muslims and his disdain for Christians", mr President shelved plans to send a FG delegation to Hajj 2015. We didn't see "Christians" take over cyberspace to "condemn" this extreme demonstration of bigotry by the president.

Today, he's done for Muslims what he did for Christians and social media has literally been set on fire!!

3. FG Approves 65% Tax Waiver For Christian Pilgrims.

This was done earlier this year under this grim economic atmosphere, yet we never heard as much as a whistle from nobody!!

These and many more instances where the FG under President M. Buhari intervened to make things a lot easier for Christian pilgrims never became major talking points- but as soon as anything is done by the president that seem to favour Muslims, who are no less citizens of this country than Christians, it becomes a huge problem- no thanks to religious bigots who think themselves Christians!

I have been going to church since I was 3 and been listening to pastors, reverend, bishops, etc, preach the word- never a day have I heard any of them extol hate or bigotry as a virtue! Nowhere in the Bible have I read such (not that I always read the bible anyway).

Where then did these Nigerian "christians" propagating this brand of "christianity" where Muslims MUST be hated get their doctrine- PDP constitution??

Myself and many other well meaning Nigerians have been advocating that government completely hands of sponsorship of pilgrimage. Man's relationship with God is their private business and must be treated as such. If one chooses to visit Mecca or Jerusalem or the Bohemian Groove or Okija Shrine to commune with their God, let them sort their expenses out themselves!! If they can't bear the cost, they should sit asses at home and pray- God is omnipresent and can hear them from wherever whenever.

PDP "apologised" for their toxic brand of politics the other day- it would do Nigeria a whole lot of good if the party called her members and supporters to order as that "apology" appears not to have registered on their minds. Heating up the polity with religion does no one no good, certainly not a party that seeks to return to the center in 3years time.

Had the constituent units of the current governing party conducted themselves in this manner when they were the major opposition parties, imagine what the country would have looked like today.

When you set the entire country ablaze, when then would be left to rule over afterwards, her ashes??

Let a word be enough for the wise.

Thank you.

I have watched with keen interest the battle between Senator Dino and Bola Tinubu and i can see that majority of those hailing Dino are ibos. Why is this so, do their culture condone women battery, or they are just pained Tinubu spearheaded the failure of their Son
Battery is something that should be condemned estpecially towards the female folks so you can imagine my surprise when i see sane (not sure though) individuals hailing dino's action. Unless you dont have a mother or sister will you see one idiot threatening the female folks and you will feel comfortable or its either you are a wife-beater yourself.

divinecode101:
My problem with Igbos is that they are never ready to stand for anything
They are not ready to take a stand for anything
Igbos are not ready to take responsibility for anything
All they do: Blame others for their irresponsibilities and failures
Blame Yorubas for their governors forging tax documents
Blame PMB
Blame APC
After this, they now associate with the loosing party and claim election was forged
Igbos, use your heads na!

Businessideas:
Thank God he didn't say he was being witch-hunted! He suddenly forgot that the indebtedness of irresponsible borrowers like him made Union Bank to sack more than 1000 workers greater number than the number of people he claims he is employing,as if the jobs of his workers is more important than that of people who got fired by union bank because of the mess he caused.
Thank God we are not in GEJ 's era, AMCON would never have gotten shishi from this cunning fox. Since last Friday that the court ruled on the AMCON takeover, he waited till almost a week before acting thereby disrupting the business of his tenants in Galleria. He should get ready to be sued and pay compensation to his tenants who pay a lot as rent and service charges. His irresponsible attitude cause them to lose money and business,imagine those eateries in the galleria and how most of their food would have been spoilt.

This is what change of govt can bring if Gej was there, it can't happen.
