The Op's mentality is one of the most devastating of our citizens. When they say Nigerians embolden and encourage her political elite to fleece them, this is exactly what that means. Here's someone insulting the General because, according to him, the General occupied such positions that would have made him one of the wealthiest in the country, yet is no where near the 10,000th richest man in the country. It has become a shameful thing and perhaps a crime not to be corrupt and enrich oneself through corrupt means in Nigeria!!

I can't imagine what dangerous children our generation would be raising as we approach the point where we assume leadership positions in this country. Imagine giving the op a position of leadership tomorrow, that organisation would be done for!!

Smh.

What happened to all the salaries he was paid when he occupied these offices?
what of the allowances? The emoluments, the severance packages?
what of his salary till date as a former head of state?

Does it mean He couldn't Invest any?
He couldn't set up streams of Income that will generate millions for him?

ogaofficer:
HE JUST WROTE THE FACT UP THERE, INCASE YOU DONT KNOW.

I am quite certain you didn't read the post. Its too long for you!
If not, you would have distinguished between facts and emotional outburst.

please read the write up!

WANTEDD:
so far he has good intentions for this country
so far he is not clueless
so far he's ready to fight corruption


being broke doesn't make it a reason he shouldn't be voted for. so. that post is pointless

Good Intention?
How do you judge a man's Intention?
How was the economy during his regime?
Did he have respect for the rule of law?

penny01502:
smoething like this can't make front page, its just a trash from a brainless human seeking for attention

Is this your own contribution?
So sad!

Gbawe:
Another "buhari took a loan to buy declaration form" thread. I must say I am shocked by the spectacular lack of intelligence you TANdroids and Jonathanians are displaying. Is it not obvious what you are doing in your desperation to blacken Buhari? You mumuish olodos do not even know your own Country and people !!!

What got GEJ into Aso Rock in 2011 if not the "boy with no shoes" ruse Nigerians bought hook, line and sinker in their millions? Many Nigerians voted for GEJ because they connected with the idea he is a modest and ordinary man, just like them, who would be able to identify with and fight for the average Nigeria.

Now you cretins are actually sabotaging your corrupti messiah (GEJ) and giving GMB free "boy with no shoes" publicity through your obsession with attacking him over taking a loan to pay for his nomination form. Nigerians, even better than the "boy with no shoes" ruse, will simply see GMB as "man with no money". They know that Buhari, LIke OBJ, IBB Abacha, Danjuma, Atiku and GEJ, was in a position to steal massively plus build hilltop mansion and bank billions of dollars. Yet Buhari had to struggle to pay an amount that local government chairmen in Nigeria give their mistresses to go shopping in London. Now, desperate olodo Jonathanians, tell me how this will resonate with Nigerians? TANmumu jokers, all this garbage you are writing is for the bitter, educated Jonathanains like yourself. The average Nigerians on the ground will love that Buhari struggled to pay, for his form, an amount virtually all your leaders carry in the glove box of their cars to settle the praise singers they come across daily

English please!

Nigeria Doesn't Need A Broke Man As President: Muhammadu Buhari Lacks Financial Management Skill

To the Buharists, the only reason why Buhari "borrowed money" and purchased his presidential form is because he has no money. Why? Because he didn't loot public fund as a former Head of State unlike others.

This opinion held by the Buharists shows how gullible and myopic they are. One doesn't need to be corrupt or loot public fund so as to be able to vie for elective positions or be very rich. All it requires for one to have streams of income are shrewdness, business acumen and financial management skill.

These are what Buhari lacks. Or how can one explain why a man that have held many important positions, served in different capacities as listed below, collected salaries for several years and pensions till date, yet he had to borrow money to buy form for his election?

For the records:

1. Buhari was listed in the army in 1962 and was retired in 1985;
2. Chairman Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC (June 1978 – July 1978)
3. Federal Commissioner for Petroleum and Natural Resources (March 1976 – June 1978)
4. Governor of North-Eastern State of Nigeria (August 1975 – March 1976)
5. 7th Head of State of Nigeria (December 31, 1983 – August 27, 1985)
6. PTF Head (1994-1998) under Abacha's regime

In all sincerity, can anyone hold these positions as Buhari did, and still maintains that he is broke? Maybe, the person is reckless spender. If Buhari is this broke, then how will he repay the loan? How will he fund his campaign if he had to borrow money for form? How many banks has Buhari ruined with unhealthy loans in his endless quest for power since 2003?

Buhari is not ashamed of himself. He has lost three times for the same position and now, he wants to borrow money to contest against a man that was just 26 years when he was in power.

It was a mistake (Military Rule) that made a man like Buhari to rule Nigeria. He can never rule Nigeria again because from all indications, he can't manage himself. How can he then manage Nigeria! Or must one loot public fund to be rich?

Nigeria doesn't need a broke man as President.

Say NO to this supporter of APC!

What has sending Pm got to do with being sandy?
Inordinate attention seeker!

I have read with indifference the comments of those criticizing Pastor Chris and I have observed one thing.

1: check every other post where a pastor was talked about, these are the same people that will always come out and speak ill of that pastor.
They are on the prowl, attacking men of God, seeking their downfall and rejoicing in any "perceived mishap". Amazingly these guys are suppose to be christians- they rejoice in the downfall of one another.

How did the church get to this point of wickedness?
That suppose Christians rejoice in the fall of one another.
How did this witchcraft spirit enter in the church?
Its terrible and sickening.

Look at David, when a man came and reported that he killed his enemy Saul, David wept and cried.
He asked the man a question "how come you were not afraid to slay the Lord's anointed?"

My submission:
This is not the first attack on the church and won't be the last. If you ever think that Christ Embassy will go down because of all these, think again.
There are buildings on sand and there are those on rock, the church is solidly built on a rock- no going down.

Czechrep: Hi Nairalanders, my hubby is emotionally mean

We had an issue 2 days to my birthday, i apologised, but he ignored me, my birthday came, from beginning to end, he never uttered " Happy birthday"

You can imagine how i felt, people all over were calling me to wish me, but he didnt, even cancelled the dinner we were supposed to have, i feel so heart broken!!!

One would think i did something so atrocious , meanwhile i didnt,marriage is so difficult

dayuuummm !!!

you need to grow up, you and your husband.
what do u expect us to do or say? that u should leave ur husband?
go and manage ur home and allow people with real issues discuss things.

naijaboiy: what kind of a man is that
He's taking things too far

have you heard the man's side of the story?
saint naijaboiy

jayseehe: what about unreasonable demands made by Nigerian Christian schools; were going to church is compulsory

my friend, your argument is baseless.
You called it a christian school, should they be going to mosque then?
Have you seen any Islamic school that has a church?
The boy was suspended in a public school for reading a material that is not seditious or inciting.

Safari29: Yeah a friend doctor told me about ivs. or something to know the baby genotype before delivery though he said its expensive. but I don't care. This girl saved my ass in so many situations I can't afford to loose her

.

This is the problem with some people. If someone helps you, you don't pay the person back with marriage, you say "thank you".
Marriage is not a reward for a job welldone. its a commitment.
If you make the mistake of marrying that lady and you later give birth to SS, you will hate yourself eternally.

@ Highyo. With all due respect, SHUT UP YOUR MOUTH YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY.
Did you choose them? Did you call them into ministry?
Did God send you to warn them? Who told you that those people sending all those warnings are of God?

PLSSS, SHUT UP YOUR MOUTH.If

Christ is my life.

1cor.10:16; The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ?

Paul called the communion "the cup of blessing". The word 'cup' is the Greek word 'poterion' meaning a vessel of drinking.

The cup of wine for communion is called a vessel of blessing. When we take that cup, the bible says we drink blessing into our lives.
Its not just a religious ceremony.

In Acts of the Apostle, the bible showed us how they went from house to house breaking bread. It was a regular thing.

What is so important about the communion?
Let us look the first place communion was given.

In Genesis, when Abraham returned from the slaughter of kings, melchizedek met him and gave him BREAD AND WINE. He blessed Abraham and said "Abraham of the most high, possessor of heaven and earth".

That blessing became the Abrahamic blessing. Abraham transferred this blessing to his son Isaac, who in turn, transferred to his son and so on until Jesus came.

Galatians said, if ye be Christ then are ye Abraham's seed. That blessing is in the communion which melchizedek, a type of Christ gave to Abraham.

Everytime we break bread, we are establishing that Abrahamic blessing on our lives.
The bible said the gospel was first preached to Abraham. Gal 3:8;
How and when?

When melchizedek gave him BREAD AND WINE, signifying the body and blood of Jesus - the gospel was preached to him.
Jesus said as often as you do this.

How often is your often? Once a month? Once a year? Everyday?
Acts 2 : 46-47; they broke bread,...praised God and had favour with all men.

Have u broken bread today?
Have u showed the Lord's death today?
Have u taken the cup of blessing today?

I was watching the news just now on channels tv and they showed a story of a demolished building in Abia State by security operatives. The said building was used as a "baby factory" (babies were sold there).
To say that I was shocked and perplexed is an understatement.
Why would they demolish the building? What offence did the building commit?
In as much as I strongly condemn illegal sales of babies, I Do Not under any circumstance support the demolishing of a building.
Why couldn't the government take over the building? Why didn't the government give it out as a low cost housing to public servants?
This is a complete waste of infrasture.
Condemn the offence, punish the offender but Pls don't demolish the building.
Thanks

the bible said blessed are u among women not blessed are u above women.
The bible said blessed are u among WOMEN not blessed are u among women and men. read ur bibles well.
The only two people that eulogised Mary in the bible are Elizabeth (a woman) and Angel Gabriel (a messenger).
Angels are not higher than a Christian at all. the church is the body of Christ, if angels are higher than the church than they are higher than Jesus Christ.

When men don't know the scriptures, they start believing lies!
Men who believe "so-called visions" rather than the bible!
Heaven is not a reward but a place of origin!
This is pure hallucination or acute malaria!

History has it that a man called "Jesus" walked on this earth, He performed miracles that no man ever did before his time; He raised the dead, unstopped deaf ears, opened blind eyes, etc.

History also has it that He was crucified and that on his crucifixion day, there was darkness all over the world at that time.

Some said that he didnt die, that he was just unconcious, some said his disciples stole his body, others said the Roman soilders took his body;

(1) How can u put a spear thru a man's heart, hang him on a tree for that long, and put him inside an embalmer and he would still be alive?

(2) If the disciples stole his body, dats a miracle!!! How can eleven defenceless men still a body amidst the best trained solders(ROMAN SOLDIERS) at that time, who neither sleep nor slumber during a watch?

(3) If the romans took his body, they shld bring it out and end this "claim" by christians that Jesus is alive.

Based on History, Jesus is alife; Based on the bible, Jesus is alife....

WE WIN!!!!!

"... and what is the exceedin greatness of his power to-usward who believe, accordin to the workin of his mighty power, which he wrought in christ when he raised him from the dead..."(Ephesians 1vs19-20).

This is a "shouting scripture"!.

God has made available to us the same power that raised up Jesus from the dead, He wants that power to operate thru us.

WOW!!! No wonder Paul called it "EXCEEDING POWER"! meaning that it exceeds ordinary human power.

This is the power of the Holy Ghost, this is the glory of the Father!! If this power can raise Jesus from the dead, it can destroy heart disease, HIV, cancer;

it can cause untold wealth to come to you; it is the same power that made Joshua to command the sun to stand still (thereby stoppin d rotation of earth for hours);

When we meditate and walk in the consciousness of this scripture, there is no tellin wat we can do...

"Trinity"; God the father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit;

This is the God-Head. This is the highest decision making body in the whole heaven, earth and the universe.

They made a decision about Sodom and it was settled, they made a decision about the world during Noah's time and it was settled, they made a decision about Nebuchadnezer and it was settled.

"This matter is by the decree of the watchers and the demand of the Holy ones..."(Daniel 4vs17). It was not one person that took that decision but several.

Then who are these watchers? "....the Lord said, shall i hide from Abraham that thing which i do...?"(Gen 18vs17) God had to tell Abraham wat He was about to do and Abraham interceded.

Who are these watchers? God said i have set you as a watchman. These watchers have become an intergral part of the Godhead!!! "...ye might be partakers of his divine nature,..."(2Pet1vs4).

The christian is part of the TRINITY. GOD- the bible says ye are gods; the Son- Jesus is the head and we are his body, u cant have a head without a body.
So if the head is part of the trinity, the body is part of it too; the Spirit- he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit with the Lord.

We are one Spirit with the Lord. We are now part of the highest decision-making body on earth, in heaven and in hell.

Therefore nothing shld happen without ur permission! Dont allow anybody to die without ur permission!! Get on your knees and cause some changes now from the throne room!!! You are a watcher!!!!

"...And hath raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus" (Eph. 2vs6).

As believers, we have the authority over the devil and his cohorts. Just think of that traffic warder who is directing cars on the road; he may be short, look weak, inconsequential, infact he may have even lied to before coming to that duty post BUT as long as he is the traffic guy incharge, you cannot disobey him.

You may not like his face, but u cannot disobey him. because though he may look weak, he has authority backin him up.

Brothers and sisters, when you are born again, u have authority over the devil, dont allow him to set up his office in ur life; ur bizness, ur school, ur
finances, ur health.

If you have been experiencing ups and downs in ur life, its tym to cast dat devil responsible away.

Just say "you devil, in the name of Jesus, get out of my home/bizness/finances/academics etc. and he will flee.

You are the king's kid, the devil may not like ur face, he may think u r weak but he cant do anytn about it.

"They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength...". What does it mean to wait upon the Lord? Many christians think u wait upon the Lord when u fast and u are waitin for him to do sumtn, nothn can be further from the truth than dat.

Think of a waitress in a resturant, wat if she comes to u and says "pls i am waitin for you to do sumtn for me?" What will be ur reaction? U will just assume that she doesnt know her responsibility.

"To wait upon the Lord" is to ask Him what He wants, it is to serve the Lord. It is to take His orders, it is not to ask Him for anything but to lavish your time and love upon him in worship and listening to hear what He wants.

When you do this, you will see your strength being renewed daily, u will live in constant victory and replenishment.

@ Op.
U have just taught the WORD! Respect!

Is death compulsory? Must christians die?

This is one topic that wld probably attract criticism both from christians/none christians alike.

Let me attempt to provide an answer.

When Adam sinned, what was the effect of his disobedience? Physical death, spiritual death, sickness, poverty etc.

If we say that Jesus paid the full penalty of Adam's sin, if we say that everytn is finished; it then means that the effect of Adam's sin has been taken care of.

It means that sickness shld no longer have dominion on the christian, it means that poverty shld no longer control a christian, it means that PHYSICAL DEATH HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF. IF DEATH ENTERED INTO THE WORLD because OF ADAM'S SIN THEN PHYSICAL DEATH HAS BEEN ABOLISHED because OF JESUS' DISOBEDIENCE. do not be afraid of death, it has been defeated.

Jesus has brought life and immortality to light thru the gospel. This is the gospel; that man can live forever!!!

Psalm 91 vs 16; "...With long life will i satisfy thee...", What does this mean?
God is not just saying "I will give u long life". When you give a man food, how would u know wen he is satisfied? Are u the one that will tell him that he is satisfied or he will tell u when he is satisfied?

Its the man that will tell u wen he is satisfied. God is saying "I will give you life untill you say 'God i am ok', i have had enough". God's long life to you is ur choice, how long u want to live is ur choice!

A lot of pple will say but "many have died who ddnt say they have had enuf". The question is "what was their confession?"

When you say "ur joke is killing me", "u r tickling me to death", what do u think u are saying? If u want to live long, honour ur parents and refrain ur tongue from speaking death or sickness.

Learn Word confession not just positive confession. Inundate ur being with the speaking and meditation of God's word.

God does not lie and cannot lie not because he is bound by our idea of morality or our idea of right and wrong but because He is God.
What He says becomes. His words are truth, not just true only but truth.

If u present a "white" material to God and ask him the color, if he says it is "red", then by the tym u look at the material again, it will be red. That is my God.

The devil is a native liar, he is the father of all lies. When he speaks, he speaks lies. U dnt judge the words of the devil with circumstances but with the word of God.

If the devil comes to u in d morning and says "gudmorning", dnt go out to check if he is saying the truth, just know he is lieing.

When God says "u r rich", dnt start checking ur pocket. Just say "yes sir and i am whom u say i am.

The bible talks about the "arrows that flieth in the day...", what are these arrows?

We must understand spiritual warfare. It is not shouting "Holy ghost fire" and "back to sender", but in understanding.

Firstly, how do spirits make war? Through words. Have u ever seen a dumb native doctor before? Never. Why?
because no matter the charms they prepare if they dnt speak words, it will be meaningless. Words are the tools of spirits. Negative words are always going forth against us from pple around us, far or near.

These are spiritual warfares. The devil brings his attack on us thru negative words that came as a result of negative thinking.

How do we combat this attacks and strategems? Thru WORDS. When u hear negative words or thoughts, u combat them thru words.

What then do u say? Say "i am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus". " i am a winner". I am rich, i am a success, i am a victor, i am going upward and forward only.

Speak these words and make warfare, stay in the secret place of the most high by "saying". I will say, He is my fotress and my refuge.
Hahahaaahahaha!!!

God loves you, yes you!
Do u know the intensity of God's love for u?
Dat love made Him to give His only begotten son- Jesus to die for you.


If u were the only person on the face of the earth, Jesus wld have still died for u. He ddnt die for u because we were many but because He loved us.
This is the love that tells a condemned criminal "...today, u shall be with me in paradise".

This love prays for murderers "father forgive them for they do not know what they do"
This love says to an adulterer " ...neither do i condemn u, go and sin no more".

This love says " I will, be thou cleansed".
You are equal to ur purchasing power.
What was paid to purchase you? You are equal and worth the blood of Jesus.

The question is, what can this blood purchase? It can buy everytn and anytn. It can snatch men from hell. It can save to the utmost. That is ur worth. You are WORTH THE BLOOD OF JESUS.
This is LOVE!

God ddnt just save u but also gave u the same glory that Jesus had. (John 17 vs 22)
He loves you the same way He loves Jesus. ( John 17 vs 23).

God loves you so much, you are d apple of his eyes. He is not condemning you. If He gave u Jesus, He can give u anytn and all things.
