Is Archbishop Adeboye their brain?Besides the man is very generous.I have seen his
philantropic works on tv.Did he not give over 40million naira to one university, bought
cars for many church members and killed over a thousand cows for his members?
People just want everything to be free without working for it.
Did not Samuel anoint King Saul,who later turned his back against GOD?It is left for GEJ to
fulfill his part as a chosen King,no fault of Adeboye.

Explanation:

Don’t kick people when they are down,
Nor bother them at inappropriate times:
Don’t start trouble by bothering people who are struggling to get by.

There is a limit to patience (not Madam Patience o).

Meanwhile, I hope we know the effects of shutting down all our facilities. Even nations at war still keep up production. If we shut down, oil prices will take a slight jump. USA, Europe, etc (who are very proactive and I can bet, already have a backup plan) will find alternatives. Saudi will open more valves and Angola will also smile to the bank.

Back here the story will be different. In a minute or 2, Power from gas turbines will be knocked off the grid (Gas is not stored for power supply). Within a week, refineries will shut down and most of us will not be able to move more than 10km from our homes. Telecom companies will run out of supply and Pinging shall cease. NL will be inhabited by all except Nigerians in Nigeria. Etc etc.
But guess who gains? The NIGER DELTA! The life span of her God-given resource will be elongated for a few days probably into the time when the resource will be better managed for their benefits or better still, when Niger Delta will manage ALL of her resources by herself!
Anyway, I don't see this happening anytime soon. But if it does, be ready for the worst!

It was just announced on the news on Channels television and this is as authoritative as it can be. Meeting has been moved to 5.30pm tomorrow and the strike has not been called off due to failure to agree. So says the Labour leader

I just call the devil to find out if IBB is in hell, to my greatest surprise I found out that Lucifer is no longer in charge of the affairs of hell. there has been a coup.

NLC Vs. FGN: First half ended goal-less. It was tension-soaked as both sides brought in different play formations - the referee NASS issued 2 red cards to FGN, 5 corner kicks & 1 penalty, but no goals recorded. FGN has exhausted its reserve players while NLC reserve bench is packed full with both foreign and home based players. We do not know how the second half will look like, but it seems FGN is relying on luck and praying that NLC will run out of players so that it can go for the kill while NLC head coach says his boys are playing according to instructions, but will likely make some few changes and bring in the hit-man PENGASSAN, an international striker. The second half looks good and we expect to see at least a goal scored. Meanwhile, we will take some commercials break and return for the second half soon

Why you non-Igbos are surprised about this is beyond me, the Igbos are by nature a greedy, avaricious lot who see in every situation an opportunity to make money even at the expense of their own flesh and blood (they are dying like flies in the North, yet their kin in Wuse Market were screaming that they like subsidy removal). The reasons being adduced for not joining the strike are so ridiculous, its beyond laughable.
    I assure you that even if a million Igbos die in the North, a million will take their place because the alternative is to go die slow, painful, poverty-stricken deaths in the landlocked sh**hole called Igbo land. The marketers who have been selling above 65 naira, are they not Igbo people?
   They think they will get the presidency in 2015 if they boot lick, bend over and know tow to GEJ, how pathetic. If GEJ doesn't contest in 2015, its going back to the North.
   They claim they are a "republican" or "egalitarian" society. The truth is it's a case of every man for himself. That is why they steal, cheat, connive and even murder so they can get enough money to marry many wives, build big mansions in the village, throw lavish parties and buy chieftaincy titles and knighthoods. Kidnapping, armed robbery, prostitution are 10x worse in the S/E than anywhere else in Nigeria, if in doubt do the following three things:
(1) Go to the East via night bus.
(2) Enter any big town especially Aba and Onitsha after 6pm.
(3) Visit Owerri in the evening on any given day especially weekends.
    Nigerian roads are bad generally but S/E roads are death traps, yet every Igbo man of means grades (and in some cases tars) only the road that leads to his own house. Their roads have been washed away by erosion, yet go to any village and you would be amazed at the types of empty mansions you see.
      The truth is their place is dead, look at all their traditional rulers, most of them stay in Lagos, Abuja, PH, Asaba, etc. Eze. Festus Odimegwu, the former Nigerian Breweries C.E.O is the traditional ruler of his community in Imo, yet he still stays full time in Parkview Estate, Ikoyi and runs his business, FE Group of Companies, all based in Lagos. Amb. Arthur Mbanefo is the Odu III of Onitsha, also still resides full time at Ikoyi. Same goes for Prof. Laz Ekwueme who is a traditional ruler in Oko, Anambra but still stays at Yaba. This is because they know that they are rulers over barren wastelands.
    The average Igbo farmer spends 3 times what other farmers across Nigeria spends on fertilizer yet the only thing that grows is cassava (and yellow garri is still cheaper in Lagos than anywhere else in Igboland). They think we in the Niger-Delta will go with them if they secede and dash them our oil, how I laugh at their stupidity!!!!!
   Has anyone ever wondered why successive bad governments use Igbos as mouthpieces? Its because they always have a price; Abacha had Daniel Kanu, Obj had Odimegwu leading The 3rd Term agenda as well as Frank Nweke Jnr., now GEJ has nitwits like Worgu, Okonjo-Iweala, Anyim and Co. Of course we all remember Arthur Nzeribe (A.B.N) and Uche Chukwumerije under IBB. Look at N.N.P.C, various Hausa, Yoruba and South-South boys have entered that place and cleaned out yet they all used and are still using Levi Ajuonuma as spokesperson.
  Have you ever wondered why in eight years of the senate's presidency under the S/E zone, they had Enwerem, Okadigbo, Wabara, Anyim and Nnamani. In five years under North-Central zone, only one: David Mark, Its because they have sold, are still selling and will always sell their own mothers for a plate of porridge.
  The whole of Imo has less than 3 functioning industries(government or private) yet they are always quick to shout marginalization. When one of their few shining stars: Alex Ekwueme stood to contest in 1998 and 2002, Igbo people like Orji Kalu, Achike Udenwa, Jim Nwobodo under cut him because he didn't share money.
   Abeg the Igbos or "Biafrans" as they call themselves should do and leave the rest of us alone, all they are good for is to act as middle men in the sale of fake Asian products (thank God all these foreign companies are already setting up shop in Naija) and supply girls as wives.

Why don't they buy Innoson buses? This can create many jobs.

slap1:
If we really have a working government, there won't be scarcity when the price is N65. The only thing I see is that the government is not sincere.
