The politicians have almost looted treasury dry. They must be probed without delay

Seeing all Nairalanders on here. Na so they too border for a certificate?

RYANAYO:
there was no broadcast of the certificate matter on channelstv i was watch from 8 to 9 and till now still nothing on it and it's to 10.

why troubling ursef? Why some would go for nepa bill, some for sachet water nylon as replacement for a certificate.

You too are still watching for a certificate? When the news doing the round is, certificate or no certificate, or if it is a Nepa bill, all is well and people are good to govern.

Why are you troubling yourself now? Graduates are graduates in as much as they can tender a certificate, even if it is F9 parallel

sescop:
Goodbye Jona

with the collaboration of retired, non tired but fraudulent Generals and other politicians. May God save Nigeria.

Matters arising... everyone should be careful .. What he or she believes and the direction being faced

Dewze:
Is the Al Mustapha's confession a recent one? Pls, help with a link or the name of the dailies. Thanks.

https://www.nairaland.com/2100122/how-sani-abacha-died...al-mustapha

Understand roles of the cabal and how power changes hands, whether the process respects the rights of all or not.

pacifique:
Not new

papiforreal:
I am Hausa, but i know this for sure.

bokohalal:
Sheik Gumi should also tell us what,or why they are fighting Nigeria.

I like courageous and truthful people who can stand for truth. God bless you people for being truthful. I myself had stated this times without number, but many wouldn't want to believe in the truth.

Boko haram was started for Islamist struggle and got fuelled as a result of desperation for power of these Northern bloc and tribes. Al Mustapha confession in the dailies is enough to tell what Nigeria really is and where it is heading to. If care is not taking the next version of boko haram would be a battle for freedom everyone will have to fight.

WHEN THE PDP = APC and to any other thing in a matter of time. We are watching them as they lie and change identities. The best we could do now is to vote for politicians we can trust irrespective of their parties. many politicians are vultures looking for where to get fresh meat.

PDP is about power.
APC is more about power getting back to the North than "Change" people are shouting in the South.

Tranquill:
What I noticed is that all the names of the players and people involved are northerners and that is the scenerio they want to bring back to the seat of government using APC. I also believe that what actually worked against Jeremiah Useni is that is not a Muslim and a 'core' northerner.

angelsing:
This tribal and religion card u are trying to play will not get u anywhere...Vote for GEJ and stop trying to deceive others just because u don't like GMB...Show me a man who wants to vote GEJ base on achievement and not tribe or religion and I will show u a keke napep that can fly

You mean GeJ has no meaningful projects? Don't be ungrateful now, and don't celebrate lies because of hatred for someone because he is not one of your own.

So... awon eniyan yi dan mewa wo ni aso rock...hmmm. so ibb intervention resulted in the peaceful resolution and transfer of power to the most senior officer then...that's good of him... Alas this country has celebrated injustice since the time immemorial... the most senior officer then was side tracked and denied the privilege of becoming the next head of state after Abacha's death, probably he was of little or no benefits to certain people that made themselves powerful cabal in the administration of this country.

From Al Mustapha stories about demise of his formal boss and the other version of the story most people are aware of, Abacha's death will ever remain a mystery. But that of MKO was obvious, his death was well planned and executed. Those who know about it will never tell the truth. Who knew before that Mustafa and his colleagues in Aso Rock went to that extent. one junior officer commanded and directed the seniors the way he wanted.

The Flood
The story of flood is just a reminder of God's judgement of evil on earth. It calls our attention to judgement that awaits everyone who chooses to walk in sinful way. The loving and merciful God has provided us with right information on how to live for him and receive his favour whenever he judges the wicked. This lesson gives the warning and shows dangers associated with sinful lifestyle. 2 Peter 2:5 - God spear not the old world, but saved Noah, the eight person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly. We have the followings for discussion: Wickedness brings destruction; God offers Mercy amid Judgement; Divine Promise and Restoration.

Wickedness brings Destruction: Sin makes God sorrowful. Sinfulness of people grieved God at the heart during the time of Noah to the extent that he destroyed the old world with water (Gen 6:5-7). Wickedness of mankind brought about destruction that didn't spear other creatures. This shows that the wicked do not bring destruction on themselves only when they are judged; the innocent will also be affected. God will not overlook sin because He is just, holy and righteous.

People must not think they can sin and do away with it. Sin results in judgment (Genesis 6:11-13,17). It is committed when people make poor moral choice that affects their relationships with others and God.

God offers Mercy amid Judgement: Before God judges wicked He will provide the way by which the righteous can be saved. He gave Noah warning concerning his coming judgement. Noah passed the warning across but people ignored it until destruction came upon them (Genesis 6:8-10,14). People can't bear the consequences of taking God's grace for granted. Noah didn't just receive God's favour among numerous people during his time, he met the necessary condition; he was a righteous, faithful and perfect man. His daily activities showed that he walked with God.

God's offer requires response of man. The response is an act of obedience to instructions that come up with the offer. He told Noah to make an ark with the given dimensions. He also told him to enter the ark with his family and bring other creatures inside (Genesis: 6:8; 7:. He obeyed God and did as instructed. He saved his family by his obedience to God's offer of salvation. During the time of Noah the ark stood as the offer of salvation, but presently Christ is God's offer of salvation.

Divine Promise and Restoration. God fulfilled His promise of saving Noah and his family from the destruction of his time. Noah wasn't ungrateful to the great deliverance he had received. He made sacrifices of Thanksgiving to God. Likewise we must see reason to give thanks to God for his goodness, saving grace and mercy he makes available to us daily. Christians daily offerings of thanksgiving to God should express their faithfulness and sincere worship of Him.

God makes covenant of salvation with people that obey his command and walk daily with him. He made covenant with Noah that he would never destroy the earth with flood in judgement again. He gave a sign (rainbow) as reminder of the covenant (Genesis 9:8-17). He has kept the promise since that time. This shows that God is faithful to His promise. Just as he made provision to save people from destruction during the time of Noah, He has made the most convenient and easiest way for all people to be saved through Christ. Those who receive Christ into their lives and find spiritual and eternal life in him are the ones walking in the way. To God be the glory. Lesson Texts: Genesis 6: 1 through 9:17

The Fall
As a result of disobedience and fall of one man (Adam) mankind was cursed and made to fall, but due to obedience of another man (Christ) people are given the grace to rise again, receive God's blessing and salvation. Adam's sin might be considered as little disobedience to God's command, the consequence was just too enormous for all generations. It became the burden everybody must bear, while the way out was attached with a price no person can afford to pay. People should understand that they can't pay the price of yielding to temptation and choosing to sin against God. Romans 5:8 - But commanded his love toward us, in thst, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. We have the followings for discussion: Yielding to Temptation; God Confronts Sinners and Far-Reaching Consequences of Sin

Yielding to Temptation: Eve was deceived by the devil who appeared to her and talk to her in trickery manner to ignore God's warning. Temptation comes in a subtle way with the devil trying all possible means to confuse and allure his victim to believe his lies (Genesis 3:1-3). Satan didn't force Eve to disobey God, but he managed to plant doubt in her heart, so that she would question God's character and disobey his command. Eventually Eve yielded to the temptation and caused her husband to disobey and sin against God

God cared so much for man at the creation. He settled Adam and Eve in the best place on earth and made provision for their comfort, likewise he warned them not to touch something that was potentially dangerous for their life. But the devil came around and deceived them to satisfy desires of the flesh (Genesis 3:4-6). We should understand Satan's tricks and guard against possibility of yielding to temptation

God Confront Sinners: Sin makes people to develop sense of guilt and find way to hide from God (Genesis 3:7-8 ), but nothing is hidden from Him. He is Spirit and sees everywhere, even the dept of the heart. After Adam and Even had sinned shame replaced their innocence before God. Instead of desiring to hear from God they chose to hide from him. Believers begin to hide from God when behaviours that weaken faith and reduce strong desire to serve God begin to manifest in their lives

People may derive pleasure in sin, but such pleasure will hold for a moment. There will be consequences that might result in shame, pain and death. Despite Adam and Eve attempt to hide from God, He still called out to them. He didn't abandon them to destruction they brought to themselves. This shows God doesn't give up on a sinner and leave him to face the terrible consequences. He seeks sinners to deliver from shameful lifestyle and eternal destruction (Genesis 9:1-13). Confessing one's sin to God is necessary to receive forgiveness and be restored (1John 1:9; Proverbs 28:13).

Far-Reaching Consequences of Sin: Sin alters life (Genesis 3:14-24). God's original plan for Adam and Eve was to make them enjoy fullness of life in the garden of Eden. But the moment they sinned and tried to cover their sins they were driven out and cursed to suffer and experience death. The serpent or the devil was cursed to crawl on the ground. This means its humiliation and defeat. God also pronounced hostility between Eve's offsprings and serpent's offsprings. This shows hostility and battle between good and evil that will continue throughout human history.

However God promised final defeat of the devil by the seed of Eve; He spoke to the devil, "I will put enmity btw thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shall bruise his heel" (Genesis 3:15). This shows obvious reference to Christ. The devil would inflict temporary injury on him while he (Christ) would inflict fatal injury that will result in final defeat and end of Satan.

The tree of life in the garden indicated God's provision for Adam and Eve to live forever, but they were driven from the garden and prohibited from returning to the paradise in which they once lived. Despite the fall of Adam and Eve God promised to defeat Satan and bring victory over sin to world through sacrificial death of Christ. Sin makes people naked before God, but sacrificial blood of Christ cleanses sin and replaces the covering of shame by the covering of righteousness and glory (Ephesians 1:7; Romans 5:18&19). To God be the glory. Lesson texts: Genesis 3:1-24).

ChinemeOkpan:
This President is just clueless. He cannot even get his figures right.

How can you claim to have spent more than the budget of the project? A PhD holder?

Dr Jonathan swore that the project will be completed by 2015 (this year)

Now he claims that the project will take another 48 months= 4 years. If we factor in usual project delays and the Nigerian factor, it will take another 8-9 years. The PDP will repeat this same line in 2019 if they are voted in just to emotionally bribe the Igbos.

This administration does not intend completing this project until kingdom come.

Vote for change.

Jonathan has tried sha with his various developmental programs: those he has completed and the ongoing ones. Just like you and any other person he has his shortcomings

When next you express your thought on a leader that has imparted lives positively, learn to be reasonable. Criticise constructively.

people have often referred to various completed and ongoing projects and scam associated with them.

GBTYO:
Muslim clerics the world over are justifying the killings. In Pakistan a Muslim cleric demanded that the cartoonists be hanged and there was a protest in the Pakistani parliament.

This is valid proof that Muslims sided and defended the acts of the gunmen.


'Hang the cartoonists!' Pakistani Muslims demand death sentence for Charlie Hebdo staff for committing 'worst act of terrorism' by drawing the Prophet Mohammed.

Religious group rallies in Lahore with banners: 'Down with Charlie Hebdo'.

Pakistani lawmakers pass resolution condemning image of the prophet.
 
Turkish PM denounces the cartoon as an 'open provocation' to Muslims.

Prosecutors probe Turkish paper that published extracts of Charlie Hebdo.

Muslims call front cover image of Prophet renewed insult to their religion

instead of doing all this and creating more tension globally, thus making religion look like a threat to lives of many people, I think they better leave the matter for God. If God is really involved he has the power to uphold his creation and prevent its destruction by human beings.

If they should continue reacting this way to media resources for describing someone who lived many years ago, I wonder the number of people they will be attacking at once, now that access to internet is like having a bottle of water bedside you. Children and adults are better being informed than ever before.

true2god:
@ OP, I think you should advise all your lazy Islamist who are migrating to the west (or have migrated to the west) to go back to their Islamic hell holes. The same muslims who are fleeing their countries, in millions, to europe wants to dictate how the host countries should feel about Islam and 'profet' mohammed. Thats ridiculous!

If muslims cant stand their prophet being ridiculed, drawn in a cartoon, offended, they should remain in muslim countries where it is a capital offense of insult islam or mohammed.
Muslims are the highest hypocrites known to mankind, they will be demanding for respect, demanding to build mosques (from where they daily cursed the christian and Jews and instigate violence) in europe and america but will not allow churches built in arab countries. Thats nonsense!

If muslims are not happy that their pedophilee profet is insulted in europe, they should leave europe and move back to morroco, somalia, pakistan, saudi arabia, sudan, yemen, qatar, libya where they are religiosly killing each others daily.

You mean Christianity/Churches are not allowed to spring up in the arab countries the way Islam/Mosques are allowed in the West and American?

Thank God for the cooperation of surrounding countries on fighting the terrorists and their willingness to flush them out of the communities of peace loving people. By God's grace 2014 marked tge end of boko haram advances in Nigeria. This year 2015 marks their final destruction and eradication from from shores of countries they have troubled. This years will make the end of the deadly terrorist group in Nigeria.

good warning from the pastor. Christianity, Islam or whatsoever should be taking out of Nigerian politics. Politics makes its drivers bloody liars.

PStacks:
I understood that christains think Buhari could possibly be God's enemy but God can use him.


Pastor Adeboye sef has endorsed Buhari.

What are we waiting for?

Sai Buhari.

or the third visitor, the one that promised fridge and television for farm animals... a liar that shouldn't be trusted?

either or both of the two?

Pray for better Nigeria and thst woever plans evil for the country shall God bring down on or before the elections, or assumtion of officers.

Brethren,
This is a desperate and urgent call from the throne of Grace that the brethren in Christ are about to make the greatest error of their lives by selling off their kingly heritage for a mess of pottage called "change". Change into what? Change into what happened to Egypt , Sudan, Lybia, Algeria and Turkey which were once flourishing Christian countries but because the brethren there also sold their souls on the premise of "it does not matter" they became the last set of Christians in those countries! Remember Turkey! It was the beautiful Christian country called Constantinople! Today it is history! The foundation of the planned islamisation of Nigeria was taken in 1989 in Abuja by OIC. Since then they have not looked back! Our Government gave them a contribution of 21 billion dollars then! Wonder then where the funding of boko Haram is coming from? They have painfully now infiltrated one of the biggest denominations in Nigeria and offered one of their best Pastors -a Professor,a Vice presidential Slot! Now a larger community of that denomination now promotes this "change"! They did it in Constantinople ! Remember brethren, that the biggest denomination of Christians in the North - the EYN has been wiped off! All their churches burnt. You may say that it is the North it can't get here! They said the same thing in Sudan, Libya, Algeria and Constantinople! How come the brethren have become so dulled in the Spirit that they no longer are sensitive?
We may be the last Christians in Nigeria if this grave error the brethren is about to commit is not averted! Our Lord Jesus is greatly miffed by our irresponsibility as His Followers! How come we no longer hear Him! The Great shepherd of the Sheep! How come that Christians have forgotten that this country was made ungovernable by these same people and Christians are holding the wrong person responsible? How come? The signs of the eventual Islamization of Nigeria are awash in the 1999 constitution where Islam, Sharia are mentioned more than 100 times.! Not a single mention of Christ or Christianity! You say it does not matter. Now, mark it you cannot amend the constitution without a bitter progrom!
Brethren, the night is here! We must contend for the faith and our heritage which was handed once and for all to us by our maker!
Don't relent, sound this trumpet by forwarding same to all your contacts! We will not be the last Christians in Nigeria! Amen.

It's like I am reading this for the first time. Without mincing words the warnings are noted. I think Christians should bookmark this and adopt it as an article of decision making while contributing to matters of the pressing concerns on religious matters. This piece can't be passed by without investigation and confirmation.
Truly? Really? History must be there in the shelves of Google.
Final note. Beware! "Christ's warning"

ollah1:
“What’s God’s perfect will? That if the fellow, who is going to come to power is going to be God’s enemy, it will be part of His perfect will. Because occasionally when God wants to move you to where He wants you to be, He may need to use an enemy. Joseph would never have
fulfilled his destiny if his brother had loved him,” .... Pastor Adeboye.


The Dumb, the Dumber and the Followers wouldn't understand the above quote

jokingly, seriously or divinely.. The most hated candidate will emerge as the best president.

God will use enemies of Jonathan to place him where he should be. And God will use enemies of Buhari to place him where he should be. Oh this is done!

ollah1:
so he should shut up because he is a pastor.

Pastor must not lie to his congregation. He must not say what Holy Spirit doesn't tell him. Any pastor that makes God a lair will not only humiliate himself, but he will also sin against God and such sin may not be forgiven.

Rev Mbaka has much to learn from Pastor Adeboye and other men of God who don't make fun of Holy Spirit; those who don't say what God hasn't told them.

Rev mbaka should pls read and learn how to address political issues among his congregation without offending any one.

Baba is a good and exemplary leader. He has spoken and we have understood. God can arise and cause his enemies to be scattered. Likewise he can accomplish his purpose through his perceived enemy. Thank you Sir, you make us realize the need to seek God's wisdom, vote and not to make enemies. No politician is good, just vote and make sure you don't vote for a wrong candidate.

kreamidiva:
How old is Buhari sef?

Probably 43 years of experience! If so he might be younger than Jim.

Really? If so why now Ibb. Did you ever know he would be in need of it in a situation like this? Pls can you release your friend's certificate, he is now to old to pursue fresh certificate again.

knightsTempler:
Dare to be a Nigerian

If you support PDP, you are paid to do so and apparently a thief;

But if you support APC, you are a patriot who is fighting for Nigeria.

If an APC governor award a km of road for N1.2billion, he is prudent and God sent;

If a PDP governor award same km of road for N500million, he is a thief.

If Fani Kayode joins PDP, he is bastard;

If Atiku joins APC, he is a democrat.

If Jonathan spends N7billion for his office par year, he is a criminal;

If Fashola spend same amount in a year, he is a saint.

If Akpabio approves N200Million as pension, he must be stoned;

If Fashola approved N300million for Tinubu he is a change agent.

If you cancelled toll gate as PDP government, you are an enemy of progress;

But if you build a road in Lagos, with tax payers money and toll the road, you are genius.

If you increase school feed as PDP government, you must be crucified;

If you do same as APC government, there must be a reason, cuz Education is not cheap anywhere in the world.

If you share Okada to the poor as PDP, you are poor peoples enemy;

If you ban Okada after election as an APC government, you are only helping the poor to stay alive, so you mean well.

If you single handedly make your daughter a market woman leader in APC state, it is for the progress of the people;

But if your wife is made a permanent secretary in your state by your state government of PDP, you are a greedy fellow.

If you spend N16billion on electricity without power and then support APC, you a navigator;

If you raise N500million through unbundling of same power, you are clueless.

If you fail to pay your workers for a month, but in APC, it is not your fault but someone up there;

But if you failed to pay your worker for a month and still in PDP, you are wicked human being.

If you force your family, in-law and girlfriends as senators and lawmakers on the rest of the party members, you a progressive leader;

But if you act like you don't care in PDP, you are dullard

If you tried to get a third term fraudulently by bribing the legislatures but failed, then support APC, you are democrat and the father of the nation;


If you try to get a constitutional second term in PDP, without their blessings, you an ingrate and stupid.

In their time we had Halliburton scandal, ID card scandal, Siemens scandal, we have subsidy scam scandal, we have national stadium contract scandal, we have health budget financial scam, aviation sector scam, we had power sector scandal. How many people did he jail to prove he fought corruption? Rather EFCC was his big stick against his perceived enemies.

In their time we had a sitting governor kidnapped by a thug working for the president. We had a whole region of the country rigged in favor of his party. Morris Ibekwe, a wanted international fraud star won election under PDP.

Those who stole Nigerians blind under PDP; Atiku, Obasanjo, Baraje, Saraki, Wammako, Kwankwaso, Amaechi, Oyinlola, Segun Oni, Okorocha, Ngige, Adeleke, El Rufai, etc, are today the same people financing APC and calling for "CHANGE".

Flashback to 1999, who were these people? Billionaires ? They where nobody. Today, they spend billions and no one dare to ask a question. If you do you are enemy of progress.

They started with "New PDP" when that didn't fly, they joined a cult group called ACN to become APC. Same character with different name.

Sometimes it is better not to be a Nigerian than to be a confused and ignorant one.

Great compilation reflecting hypocrisy of our politicians. They are so good in twisting minds and confusing unsuspecting electorates.

pdp =apc =pdp. Birds of the same feathers.

Alezy:
SDP is not a new party, i think Abiola used it b4 and its fast becomin popular.

Probably the best platform to immortalize MKO

Newkidoo:
SDP Is social democratic party!! The New party that was created to frustrate Amosun's effort in ogun state!! But My God won't give them chance!!

neocortex:
Yoruba people are very sophisticated when it comes to politics , they don't follow like sheep, they make their own independent decisions that will improve their future.

That's what they call beauty of democracy. It is good to have many parties. Voting pattern this time around in SW is not meant to favour a party, but good and capable candidates. Parties are just like a vehicle conveying people of known and unknown intentions; it's individuals we know that we can trust. Or can you agree that apc was formed to frustrate pdp? It's YES and NO. It's time people must be themselves and prove to others what they can deliver.

That development is very good for our democracy. No party is good or bad. They might all end up achieving the same goal. See, you people of South are clamouring for "Change". The key players over there are after "Power". Elections haven't come the big parties have started destroying properties of each other in the North. Is that the kind of change you are sweating for? If they can't be trusted they can be rejected. In my State now other parties could give apc very difficult time or even send the party parking. When it is obvious that only a microscopic few monopolized power; and just a minority benefited at all times at the expense of majority of people.

Biggty:
Buhari has a beautiful family

Buhari beautiful family is enjoying the best of life in high places of honour, peace and tranquility. WOW! The stubborn jihadists/terrorists are languishing in forests and living dangerous and hopeless life.

Rubbish and you call this a university, this is nothing but a glorified secondary school. A first generation FGC school has beta facilities than this thrash

somebody thought what he has seen or has is one of the best in the country, and you just rubbished his observation. Though the University has a longer way to go in order to be one of the best indeed there shouldn't be crime in bringing bad and good features to limelight.
