Welcome back home baba

Nightmare if the wailers

Aside from his family and close friends, Isn't it funny that you are celebrating the return of the President after being away from the country for almost 4 months ?

It doesn't strike you how low this country has sunk under this government?

OK.
Now, I can wager that he will return back to his London base in the next 30 days.

Healthwise, his conditions are chronic: Meaning that he is not expected to fully healthy again, healthy enough for physical and mental demands of being the President of Nigeria. That is fact. No hail Marys or Allah Akbars about that.

After spending $30m of our Commonwealth to extend Buhari's life for 4months or more , The path of honour beckons Buhari to bow out and ler others carry the mantle.
He has never been up to the task, intellectually or physically.
Why not now bow out with a little bit of grace and honor ?

$30 million can build at least 15 modern community hospitals spread out in different parts of Nigeria, that would extend the lives of hundreds of thousands of Nigerians year after year.

Stupidity is thinking that all black skinned people in the world must be corralled into your straitjacket view of how a black man should think and act. You posted a barefaced lie about Donald trump and I challenged you about it and you think you can engage in emotional blackmail by pointing out the colour of my skin? Look who's talking of stupidity!! Sorry for all of you blacks with a herd mentality. I can think for myself, I don't need any crowd (black or white) to think for me and I definitely don't need people whose stock in trade is telling lies to dictate to me how I should think or act

All black people in the world, at the barest minimum, must be aware of the history of racism, slavery, the civil rights struggles, the KLu Klux Klan, White supremacists and NEO-nazis.
Short of that, that black human being is a useless fool.

Donald is a racist.
He is a lifelong peddler of racial stereotypes and hate.
Pls Read his resume.
Read his rather emotional attachment to the Obama presidency, his obsession with the legitimacy of Obama's citizenship and presidency.
Read his continued obsession with destroying all things Obama, whether good or bad.

If you do not see Donald trump tacitly supporting and legitimizing the hateful activities of Hate groups, whose activities led to the death of 3 people last weakend , then I am completely ashamed , and out of words as what to say to you.
I really have no business, even dialogue with creatures like you.

peterphd:
Uncle plaetton, you're still on this issue playing the 'Donald trump is a racist' card when you've folded long ago? Cmon is it too much to ask that illegal immigrants whether black or brown stay in their own countries? Is it too much to be gutsy and politically incorrect when necessary? Cmon plaetton, being an atheist doesn't mean you should do too much of that liberal juice.

C'mon, stop that crap.

First of all, Donald TRUMP is not a conservative by any stretch.
I guess all the republican conservatives who are disgusted and condemning Donald Trump are drinking the Liberal Juice too ?
Pls don't insult me by playing that Liberal/conservative nonsense.


Donald Trump has a long history of racism. It is very clear in his resume.
Donald Trump campaigned and came to power by Harvesting festering racism that he knew existed in the lower rungs of the American psyche. Nothing more.

Politics aside, religion aside, liberal/conservative differences aside, Donald Trump, the individual, Donald Trump the president of all citizens of the United States, daily by his utterances and acts, is a bona fide scoundrel , an immoral character whose sanity is being highly questioned by all concerned and sane people all over the world.

The United States became the strongest and perhaps greatest nation in world by building , maintaining and improving strong institutions of governance , not by propping up demagogues who defecate on the institutions that made America great , and all things decent and just.

In this particular case, he has tacitly showed his support for the Racists and Neo-nazis . No questions about that.
Unless, you are see something that most Americans, most senior republicans, the CEOs of major corporations are not seeing in this drama.

His family members are embarrassed, his aides are embarrassed, but here you are, ready to defend this repugnant scoundrel, trying to make it a liberal vs conservative issue.

I don't get it.
I really don't.

coluka:
See them, they have come with their lies as usual. Trump condemned all parties in the violence in Charlottesville including the neo Nazis and KKK. You guys should stop with your bullshit lies

mexxmoney:
And where did Donald Trump declare his love for fascism or Nazism? You alt left maniacs thrive on manufacturing fake news just like the mainstream media. If you want to oppose trump, at least do it with facts and stop with all these disgraceful lies

Right on top of Black skinned people who worship a white god introduced to them by their slavers, I now think the greatest mystery in the universe is black skinned people, Africans for that matter who support and attempt to defend the dumb, childish, racist, im-becile scoundrel called Donald Trump.
It would take a tremendous magnitude of stuuuuuuuuuuPIDITY to be a black human being , and still show support for Donald Trump.

Now that Donald Trump has fully declared his secret love for Fascism and Neo-Nazism, I think it's time to revisit this thread , hopefully with greater objectivity.

Yeah.
We get the message.

deji17:
It is not a stale song that Nigeria earned more from oil Under Jona, with not much to show for it. You claim he paid some salary, yes he paid some and left some unpaid leaving the debts and other debts owed contractors, pensioners etc to be paid by a Govt earning less from oil.
You claim he spent some of the windfall on infrastructure, our reality is that our infrastructure is in deep rot, contractors are owed etc.
What baffles many is that how can you earn so much, deplete the reserve, and increased debt and not much to show for it.
That is a massive failure.
Again, this is what happened under Jona:
1. Earned more money from oil
2. Deplete the country savings - foreign reserve, ECA etc, that he inherited from his predecessor
3. Increased the country's debt from what he inherited from his predecessor

Again look at all the evidence in Dieziani's gate, Dasuki's gate etc. Read up Dieziani's testimony at her involvement in money laundering in US Court etc.
Massive looting happened under the IB hero, whether you are honest enough to admit it is another thing. And once we all settle ourselves to the fact that massive looting happened under Jonaloot, then we can all agree that there is implication for that on every Nigerian, more so when the country earnings is reduced.

Aside all the constantly regurgitated nonsense above( the periodic feeding tube and dinner buffet for Zombies) , let me just ask you, once again, what fxxing depleted reserves are YOU talking about ?
You call $30b depleted reserves ?

You Zombies keeping repeating the same senseless lies to yourselves over and over again, an in your little imbecilic mind, it becomes true.

Nigerians, even kindergarten children , are tired of these silly lies from empty Zombie heads.

Try and justify the existence of this government by actually moving Nigeria forward.

A country, a laughing stock country that Buhari has turned Nigeria into, is now on guiness records as the only country in the world being ruled by a physically and mentally incapacitated president, from another nation's capital, for 100 days, all at the expense of Nigerians , most of whom can no longer look forward to 3 square meals.

Big big Shame on you and like your likes, who wake up every day to feed the population with propaganda, instead of pro-agenda.

BlueAngel444:
You don't believe in God so how do you define your existence

And how do u discover your purpose

Lol.

How about you discover the exciting world of science, and perhaps philosophy.
Try it.

Oil Earnings under Jonathan Vs Earnings under Buhari
Despite low oil earnings, Buhari administration has bailed out states 4 times, paid backlog of debs owed contractors, oil marketers, JV cash call settled, Improved power, road and infrastructure development ongoing, Diversification effort all going, etc.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DHOQFvEXgAA0jsi.jpg:large

Here we go again with One-sided thinking and propaganda.
A fair and objective critic would have also included expenditures, statutory disbursements to states and local governments during the same period.

It is very very idiotic and extremely dishonest to keep playing the stale old song that Nigeria earned more from oil sales during the last administration, without also mentioning that Nigeria also spent more on all three arms of government, education, health, agriculture, infrastructure, defence, security, and statutory allocations to states and local governments.

It's time for pro-agenda.
Enough of the propaganda.

JMAN05:
That's not the meaning of my words. But let's go along with what you make of it. Assuming someone stops worshipping you or another person, does that make you or that one wither and die?

Why would anyone worship me ?

Secondly, for someone to admire me , have reverence for me or worship me ,the person has to have had seen me, interacted with me or directly influenced by me, and be assured that I exist, not conveniently invisible and living in the sky or some imaginary place.
In other words, I have an identity that is not in doubt. I have flesh and blood. I have a family, friends, etc. I am not self-begotten. I am not a mystery. Therefore, anyone foolish enough to worship me as a god suffers the same delusions that the worshippers of middle east gods suffer.

deji17:
They are. . Power is also improving in Nigeria. Join us in moving Nigeria forward. What might not be available is awoof money from looted funds. The future looks great and we are loving it.

I have been dreaming of better Nigeria since I was 15yr old.
I welcome anyone who can make possible.

But , we have to be realistic about who can and how.

It ain't Buhari.
Lets accept that and move on.

deji17:
Since you have now abandoned your argument on Hausa Fulani, mental slavery, axx, dxx... etc. We will discuss Buhari. On Buhari, you never liked the guy and that is fine. You did not support him to win the Presidency, but God in his infinite mercy used Nigerians to install him as our President and some of us are grateful for that. We thank God for using Buhari to save Nigeria from falling over the cliff that the IB hero and others in PDP pushed the country into. We know and understand the rot his Govt inherited. We know that despite huge oil windfall, Nigeria was already borrowing to pay Salary. We know that the forex reserve was depleted, debt skyrocketed, unemployment was high, we were marked as dumping ground for all foreign junks including tooth pick. Our infrastructure was in total collapse.Lagos - Ibadan deteriorated, Enugu- Onitsha, Enugu - Aba - PH, second Niger bridge remains a mirage despite singing the song every 4 yrs of election. All this while we have oil windfall.
But thank God our story is changing for GOOD.We are gradually leaving the club of most corrupt country in the world. Money looted by Jonathan cronies are being recovered and used in funding the budget. Contractors that has not been paid since 2012 are now getting paid and moving back to site. For the first time in the history of Nigeria, FG created a social net to employ 200,000 youth in the N-Power programme, 300,000 more to follow shortly, conditional cash transfer and feeding of school children. By the end of 2018, Nigeria will be rice sufficient with no more importation, and by 2019, there will be no more importation of petroleum products something that was last witnessed about 30 years ago. All this within 2 years. The future looks glorious and it gladdens our hearts. You may hate him, but we don't. We respect your opinion, try and respect ours.

Lol.
Yeah, quite a lot of Unicorn Meat you have there.

We can all see that Nigerians are really feasting on this APC Unicorn meat.

deji17:
Typical deluded chap. He has jumped from Hausa Fulani oligarchy to Buhari is now the Problem. He does not like PDP but their 16yrs is the glorious years for Nigeria. Just read all the jargons and the contradictions that you put here. When will you start using your head or are you the Reno Omokri using other gullible people's head? 16 years of glorious nonsense, yet your kleptomaniac hero was already borrowing to pay salary in 2014, even when oil was selling for $80 per barrel? 16 wasted years of looting and killing of innocent Nigerians. Wendel Smilin, I understand you are now carrying Atikus bag upandan as hunger don dey wire you. Shameless looter

There are no contradictions in my posts. That I can criticize when necessary, and praise when necessary shows my honesty and objectivity in addressing national issues. I am not a ZOMBIE.

The essence of plural democracy is that you have strong and virile opposition to checkmate the excesses of the party IN POWER. ACN was such virile opposition party.

I have most times been critical of Obasanjo, but I cannot hide my admiration for his boldness and his result-oriented management style ,and the positive effects it had on our national life.
I was also very critical of GEJ and the lackeys he surrounded himself with. But I cannot hide my admiration for his simplicity, honesty, integrity, patriotism and his dogged efforts to do what seemed right for Nigeria at all times.

Now, as for Buhari, there is absolutely nothing in his resume that is worth admiring; from the time he was petroleum minister, to the time he committed treason against the democratically elected government of Shehu Shagari, to his shameful acceptance of gratuity from Sani Abacha's PTF, his nepotism and mismanagement at PTF, his lack of personal integrity to concede defeat after 3 consecutive electoral losses, his tacit support for Boko Haram at the beginning, his continued nepotism and divisiveness, his gross imcompetence, and of course, his lack of patriotism and personal integrity by putting his lust for power first before the general interest of Nigeria by not resigning when he is clearly physically and mentally incapacitated to rule.

One does not have to be PDP or PDP sympathiser to see this, only common sense and objectivity.

Stop being a ZOMBIE, Deji17.
Common sense beckons you.

deji17:
You are a brainwashed mugu. Hausa Fulani slavery because Buhari si the President today> Since 1999, 18 years ago, the south has produced the president of this country 14 out of that 18 years. Even right now ,if you discount Osinbajo's Ag Prseident, the North has about 3 years . What is wrong with you PDP.igs that has nothing to offer Nigerians apart from division and lies, so that you can continue to loot.
Now in 2019, you want to present the same Hausa Fulani Gambari as your Presidential candidate. Then, you will change your story. You are evil and you know it. When did you learn to remove hausa dxxk from your axx? Was it after Azikiwe, Achebe, Ekwereforgery, Alex Ekwueme etc were bleeped? All this your childish shenanigans only makes sense to drop outs like Cownu and his followers.

I have Biafla passport to sell to you, but you must pay in Nigerian currency. Mugu

Well, I am neither a PDP member, nor holding brief for PDP.
And for your information, I actually admired the former ACN when they were in the opposition party as much as I loathed PDP and their arrogance during their reign.

But, it is on record that Nigeria recorded it's Golden Era of economic growth, prosperity and political and social stability during the 16yrs of PDP rule. That is history that no one can rewrite.

Now, when Nigerians gave their vote for Buhari, they expected more, or at the very least, a continuation of the growth trajectory.
Nigerians were delusional.
It is IMPOSSIBLE for a Buhari to do anything beneficial for the generality of Nigerians. Mark my words.

BUHARI is perhaps the most unpatriotic man we have had the misfortune of having as president.Everything he has done or not done over the last 2 yrs, no, last 16yrs, no, since 1983 clearly demonstrate that.

Put on your thinking cap and call a spade a spade.

Shameless PDP looters. Which record has your sister in crime, Dieziani broken? Hopeless kleptomaniac

As President Buhari Sets a New Guinness World Record

By Reno Omokri

President Muhammadu Buhari must be congratulated because he has set a new Guinness World Record: President Buhari has become the first elected president of a country to become resident of another nation while still in power! Shame on all those haters who say President Buhari has not achieved anything in over two years of being in office. Is this not an achievement?
And where are all those shameless critics who keep comparing President Trump to President Buhari? The two of them are not mates at all.

Not only is President Muhammadu Buhari older than President Donald Trump, in a comparison between them on an elementary matter like jobs, we find that according to the latest US job report from the United States Department of Labour, the US economy has added 1,074,000 under President Trump while according to the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics, the Nigerian economy lost 4.58 million jobs in President Buhari’s first year!

This is no mean task! It is easy to do what Trump did and make jobs appear, but it is much harder to do what President Buhari has done and make jobs that someone produced disappear!

And as President Muhammadu Buhari continues to make London Nigeria’s new Federal Capital Territory, his rapidly shrinking horde of supporters want us to feel sorry for him by selling the narrative that what is happening to him could happen to anyone.

That is true enough, but make no mistake, President Buhari does not deserve our sympathy. When the shoe was on the other foot, he called on the Executive Council of the Federation to declare the late President Yar’adua incapacitated and failing that, for the Senate to impeach him.
His exact words on March 9, 2009 were, “If the Executive Council of the Federation had acted in accordance with the constitution, by invoking the necessary sections to declare the President incapacitated, we would not have found ourselves in this present situation.”

Again, when he thought he could be sanctimonious without proving his sainthood, he decried the practice of government officials going abroad at public expense for medical treatment.
His exact words on April 27, 2016 were, “While this administration will not deny anyone of his or her fundamental human rights, we will certainly not encourage expending Nigerian hard-earned resources on any government official seeking medical care abroad.”

Today he is spending his 96th day in London and “expending Nigerian hard-earned resources” on himself. If these are not prima facie evidence of hypocrisy, then I am as old as Robert Mugabe!

And I must say that I was not really surprised that the Buhari administration brutalised popular musician, Charly Boy and his #ResumeorResign group who were beaten, tear-gassed and slapped at the Unity Fountain on Tuesday the 8th of August, 2017.

What less can one expect from an administration that killed 347 shiite men, women, children and infants in cold blood on December 15, 2015?

The incident at the Unity Fountain involving Charly Boy and others only proves that dictators may grow old, but they do not grow into democrats!

And the Senate lost a chance to side with Nigerians when it described the Charly Boy-led group as “unreasonable”.

If Charly Boy’s group is unreasonable for demanding that President Muhammadu Buhari #ResumeOrResign, was President Buhari also unreasonable when he demanded that the late President Yar’adua resume or be impeached on March 9, 2010?

President Muhammadu Buhari himself, his side kick, Nasir El-Rufai, and other top shots of the present All Progressives Congress-led government protested against the Jonathan administration but were never tear-gassed or harassed!

In the case of El-Rufai, woe betide you if you dare hold a press conference in Kaduna. You may end up being treated worse than Senator Shehu Sani and his guests!
I mean, we are not allowed to see President Muhammadu Buhari. We are not allowed to hear from President Buhari. We are not allowed to protest against President Buhari. Yet President Buhari’s government wants us to pray for President Buhari’s health!
And the most ridiculous part of the saga is that the Presidency has the guts to tell Nigerians that it is disrespectful to ask after the President’s health status and that he is entitled to his privacy as a ‘private citizen’.
Is the Presidency not ashamed to call President Muhammadu Buhari ‘a private citizen’? He is staying at ‘Abuja House’ not ‘Buhari’s House and we the citizens of Nigeria are paying for his treatment. He is NOT a private citizen. Yesterday, he released a statement condemning the Ozubulu massacre and assuring us of our safety. Which private citizen does that?

Nigeria is tired of a part-time President. Nigeria is tired of a freelance President. Nigeria is tired of a private-citizen President!

In fact, I suddenly feel inspired to write a book titled, How To Identify A Dictator: He uses your tax money to pay for his medical treatment, yet you are not entitled to know his medical condition. When it suits him, he is a public official. When it does not, he transforms to a private citizen. Yet, his government instructs you to pray for him. No, I am not talking of Kim Jong-Un here!
That President Muhammadu Buhari’s Anambra statement assuring Nigerians of their safety though! How can a private citizen in London assure other private citizens in Nigeria of their safety? And what is the point in having an acting President in charge when the London-based private-citizen President is issuing statements? Has he resumed from London? Nigeria is getting mixed signals from the Presidency. Has the President resumed from London or is the acting President still acting?

President Muhammadu Buhari wrote to the National Assembly to make Professor Yemi Osinbajo acting President, yet he is still releasing statements as Nigeria’s President. Is he a freelance President? Osinbajo is either in charge until President Buhari returns or he is not in charge at all. In fact, I don’t know why people still pay to watch Game of Thrones on Cable TV when they can watch it for free at Aso Rock.
And a week after it became public knowledge that an anti-Igbo hate song is circulating in parts of Nigeria, we have radio silence from the Presidency. Vacationing President Muhammadu Buhari, who condemned the Ozubulu killings in a statement, has nothing to say about the anti-Igbo hate song. How won’t the anti-Igbo hate song take root when the Arewa Youths who gave the Igbo quit notice are walking around freely in public? In the wake of the anti-Igbo song, I remind the Buhari administration that we have not forgotten the speed of their one-sided arrest during the Ife Yoruba/ Hausa clash!

Obviously, this administration is very quick to go after real or imagined enemies of the Buhari administration but is slow to act against Nigeria’s enemies, if at all they even act.

Look at the difference in the way they treated the Charly Boy group and the Arewa Quit Notice group. Look at the speed at which they arrested the Buhari dog man. But what have they done against Fulani herdsmen?
According to The PUNCH Newspaper, half of Nigeria’s 71 million hectares of arable farmland is not being cultivated because farmers have abandoned their farms due to the activities of herdsmen. In Benue State alone, the governor says 1800 farmers have been killed by herdsmen in the last three years (no wonder he says we are all sick because of Buhari’s sickness). According to the Global Hunger Index, the Jonathan administration reduced hunger in Nigeria from 16.3 in 2005 to 15 points in 2013 (please Google it).

But guess what? Under the Buhari administration according to the latest Global Hunger Index, 32.9 per cent of Nigerian children under the age of five suffered stunted growth due to hunger and malnutrition. By halting attacks by herdsmen, the Buhari administration can immediately and dramatically increase the amount of food grown in Nigeria and push prices down. Yet what is this administration doing to halt the herdsmen crisis? I do not know. If you do, maybe you can tell me!

What more can be said?

Karma is biaach!

Buhari is the worst thing to have happened to Nigeria.

It amazes me how people forget that it was Buhari's treachery against the Democratic government of Shehu Shagari that catapulted Nigeria into a trajectory of never-ending woes.

On his second Mission-LESS journey into Nigeria's polity, again we see Nigeria being thrust into a trajectory of never-ending woes.

If that is not a curse, I don't know what is.

StOla:
I don't need to double down, you are the one trying to distract me with matters I already ignored from the onset.

I have focussed on my concern on the false and self awarded city status boasts, a bubble that Forbes has helped to burst.

Your BAD BELLE is even deeper than previously thought.
The joke is on you.

StOla:
Dude the article is about wealth, which I have not challenged in anyway.

Rather, I have underscored the apt description given to a town many on this forum have vehemently argued is a city only to be called a small town by Forbes.

My argument and revelation is straight forward, and anyone bitter about the content of my argument is only angry that lies previously boasted about have fallen flat and prostrated to the truth.

The bitter reaction is called deflated ego.

And doubling down on your knee-jerk BAD BELLE is simply called DOUBLE BAD BELLE.

StOla:
I don't even contest that there are mercantile rich men in Nnewi or from Nnewi.

My singular argument is that a town many wanted to force down our throats as a city in past discussions about Anambra, has now been duly assessed as a small town by Forbes.

It's either you are being deliberately mischievous or you are stricken with complex ignorance, the very worst form of ignorance.

In Nigeria, in fact, in the world, there are a lot of towns, both big and small, that have evolved and grown into cities over the last several decades.

Take Abuja, for good example. Has Abuja always been a city ?
Is Umuahia a town or a city?
Is Asaba today a town or a city ?

Nnewi, A town , just to use that word, that is today home to the greatest concentration (per capita) of both the middle class and super rich, with the indigenous Industrial capacity surpassing or tied to Nigeria's commercial hub, Lagos, can hardly be described today as a town.

However, for you to use this innocuous bit by a foreign writer to downplay the import or significance of the article is nothing but 'Sour Grapes' or in local parlance, BAD BELLE.

MayorofLagos:
This is the foundation for the article. Everything here is embellished and spawn in falsehood.

The first Nigerian billiionaire was a shipping magnate by name Henry Fajemirokun. The first to own RollsRoyce was Kano Emirate, followed by Fajemirokun. Sir Ojukwu never had a Rolls.

And , we are to take just your word on this ?

maclatunji:
LOL, of all the people in Nigeria, only the Igbos have the tendency to self-destruct.

That is why we take the time to educate you lot before you enter your second past time, incessant whining over self-inflicted pain.

Self destruct?

Again, You're deaf and dumb to the self-destructive tendencies of your terrorists infested Boko Haram regions.

Igbos are builders, and because of our self-confidence , we are the least prone to violence and genocidal impulses as a means to achieving ends.

A philosophy, a religious philosophy or worldview such as yours, where cold blooded murder and mass killings are promoted as tickets to paradise to molest underage girls is the greatest perversion of the human spirit.
Yet , here you are , a self-appointed adviser and arbitrator on Igbo affairs, a people of whom you have a debilitating inferiority complex.

maclatunji:
The events of the last 2 years have shown one fact- the elders in Igboland have lost their way and as a result the youths have lost their sense of direction.

How else would one explain the emergence of Radio Biafra as led by Nnamdi Kanu to incite hate and forment trouble in Nigeria?

The Biafran agitation post-civil war is not new. The Ralph Uwazurike led Movement for the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) has been agitating for a long time prior to the emergence of Nnamdi Kanu's Independent People of Biafra (IPOB). There were protests, arrests and releases. Other regions too have different groups claiming they want Independence from Nigeria -the Oodua People’s Congress (APC) and the Arewa People’s Congress (APC) in the North.

However, these groups had not employed hate speech as a tool until Nnamdi Kanu came along. His offensive broadcasts created resentment and agitation across ethnic lines and when he arrogantly entered Nigeria despite his subversive activities was promptly arrested. His being charged to court and eventual release on bail dragged for months due to the government's strategy of stretching the legal process to its limits obviously for security reasons.

Many have argued that this has made Nnamdi Kanu popular. For decent people, this need to be a problem, one just needs to look at the following that some Nigerian musicians have to understand that popularity can be achieved without becoming a national security threat.

But not so for Nnamdi Kanu, he has continued to verbally instigate people he perceives to be his opponents within and outside Igboland even bragging that 'elections will not hold'.

Instead of abiding by his bail conditions, he is flouting them.

I ask: where the leaders of Igboland in all of these?

The problem with being obnoxious is that there is no monopoly of it. Now, a coalition of Arewa Youth groups have followed in Kanu's path and threatened Igbos with violence on October 1 if they do not leave the North. As crazy and terrible this is, we have to trace it back to Nnamdi Kanu, leaders and youths of the Southeast who failed to call him to order.

The solution to this dire situation is for the people of the Southeast to curb their recalcitrant son to create a cordial atmosphere. This will also help calm the recalcitrant youths in the North and elsewhere. While true leaders across different parts of the country work together to build a better country for all.

Failure to do this would create huge problems for everybody and that would be unfortunate indeed because it would take Nigeria back many years and put the Igbos in particular in a dire situation.

Funny, Maclatunji, this Islamic extremist, has been deaf and dumb for the past several years as his Islamic brethren in Boko Haram slaughtered thousands, devastated many parts of Nigeria, created insecurity everywhere and rolled Nigeria many decades back.

Now, like the typical hypocritical Coward that he is, Nnamdi Kanu, an Igbo man peacefully but assertively exercising his Constitutionally guaranteed rights, gives Maclatunji and his fellow hypocrites nightmares upon nightmares.
What gives ?

The old dude is a scam... Prophecy is just calculated event that may likely happen.. Just like statistics. Africans think being intelligent is having a retentive memory but being intelligent is being able to be self dependent and ask questions when no one dare. TB Joshua, Apostle Sule, Oyedepo and Adeboye are all scammers.. And come to think of it, why is religion the most important thing in Africa where other continents are pushing innovation and ideas.. We sit here waiting for God to pick our calls... Smh

All scammers.
The greatest scammers that the world has ever seen.

What sort of senseless argument is this? Lectures on the subject is less valid than the anecdotal evidence u have of people seeing God? U are giving me an example of what u claim people saw. And I just gaveu other examples of what other people claim people saw but somehow u think your example is more valid?

I am not even going to waste my time fishing for those sources anymore. Keep wallowing in ur illogical sense of superiority. Cheers.

It just shows you how the religious brain is wired .

hopefulLandlord:
this guy just proved his imaginary friend is real

Funny logic, isn't it.
It is ungodly to argue or disapprove the existence of God.
Can you just imagine the level of cognitive dissonance involved in this logic
This is what I meant that the promoters of these dying myths grafted a built-in self-preservation mechanism to checkmate the inevitable fallouts from the use of Common sense.

waldigit:
Yes that exactly what I am trying to say God does not exist because that's a fact you have chosen to believe but that's not necessarily the truth. The truth is independent of your belief system. But it is your responsibility to find out the truth, if you choose otherwise the consequence is better imagine than experienced. Best of luck.

If you make a proposition that god or something exists, then you are the one saddled with the responsibility to prove it. You can't tell me to accept it first before it becomes true or apparent.
My own is to reject any ridiculous proposition that lacks proof.
For example, I cannot ask you to prove that the Sun exists because everything in our immediate solar system experiences the effects of sunlight or lack of it.
But this god you talk of, is created in your mind accordingly with the mental and intellectual configuration of your mind( the reason that there many religions and many gods).

waldigit:
.Without faith you, your spirit man is dead. Faith is what can make you experience God. I connects you with revelation which brings knowledge via experiences. As you what is living you is soul and body. That the state the devil want to put you so you will not the truth. Remember the truth is not a function of what you believe. What you believe is your choice.

Again, let me put it to you.
Can belief and faith in Santa Claus or the ToothFairy make me experience either of these two supernatural entities ?
Is it the devil that is making you not see the truth of Santa or the ToothFairy ?

Is it also the lack of faith or the devil that robbed the former worshippers of Zeus , Ra , Apollo, etc, and made these supernatural entities wither away and die ?

Does having faith in something make that thing real ?
If so, what happened to all the dead and forgotten gods of history ? Lack of faith in them killed them ?

Do you now see how you have unwittingly made my argument for me ? That faith and belief sustains God, and without it, god is dead ( non-existent) ?

**Sigh** Not all of them sees God. Some see light. Some see their family members. Some see their own gods. I am sure if we go back some centuries, some will have seen Zeus or Odin.

The problem is paucity of information from non-western sources. I will find some very intriguing ones and post it later

Thank you.

What do African pagans have visions and spiritual experiences about ?
Of course, their ancestral gods.

What do Hindus have visions and spiritual experiences about ?
Of course, Hindu Gods.

What do Christians have their visions and spiritual experiences about ?
Of course, Angels , Jesus and God in shining bright light.

It's really that simple.

Knowing that a great many of them were unbelievers and non-Christians when they had NDEs and OBEs. Not everyone who has an OBE or NDE sees heaven or hell or God or angels or demons. Ernest Hemmingway is one of such examples.

That said, please give me one or two names of faithless people who died for many hours with proof like the ones I mentioned above and came back to life to testify to the reality of a being or nothing other than God. I await your response.

You still don't get it.

A Christian person who has an OBE would undoubtedly attribute the experience to an angelic or Jesus experience.
A moslem who has an OBE would also attribute the experience to his particular religious belief.
Likewise, a pagan who has an OBE would also attribute the experience to his ancestral spirits or gods.
Your god is created in your mind, and fits perfectly into whatever mold your mind builds to house him/her/it.
This is the point that continues to elude you.

I have had many lucid dreams and OBEs. Yes. And I am an atheist.
And such experiences did nothing to point out that there is an invisible skydaddy up there.

I have established that there's life after death through this scientifically inexplicable but verifiable happenings. As regards your question, you may need to hear Dean Braxton's testimony if you want to know more. Faith does not make something abstract a reality neither does the lack of it obliterate the existence of reality.

Like I said, give me examples of similar testimonies of witnesses to the existence of Allah or Zeus. How many peeps have had experiences of speaking with them? Who has spoken to Allah or seen him? Zeus? Krishna? ToothFairy? Now you see why their experiences cannot be proof of the existence of mythic gods, gods that remain only in the pages of the books where they were spoken of unlike the Christian God.

The bullshyte is strong with this one.

No, sir, you have not established that there is life after death. You are just caught up in one of the many delusions of a religiously infested mind.
People waking up after being declared dead is common occurrence, and there are many many explanations. The most common one is that many people, even doctors mistake coma for death. And yes, there instances where people die and for one biological reason or another, self-rescucitate.
It is also scientifically known that people who go through such experiences have Hallucinations of different kinds, the most common, being centered on religious feelings.
We all know that deprivation of oxygen to the brain causes hallucinations.
Even surgery patients coming out of general anaesthesia tend to hallucinate and speak of all sorts of experiences.

Ignorance is bliss.
If you want similar testimonies of people speaking with Zeus, Allah, Krishna or the Toothfairy, then may I suggest that read the religious books of these religions . They contain volumes and volumes of tales of people interacting with and receiving instructions from these gods.

plaetton , is atheism the rejection of the deification of an entity or the denial of the existence of an entity because it is deified ?

The last time I checked the existence of the mind behind the existence of everything isn't what atheists reject , the deification is what atheists reject .

Take your time , this will sink in .

You have your definition of everything. You tend to define things to suit yourself or your beliefs.

Firstly, I don't believe in anything deified, except of course, the Toothfairy.

I also know that there is absolutely ZERO evidence of a MIND(?) behind the existence of everything.
At most, the existence of such a mind is nothing but speculative.

JMAN05:
I stopped believing in plaetton, you wither and die. What is he saying??

When did you start worshipping me as a god ?
