PoliticalUpdate: I saw this morning on Track news the dates fixed for the hearing of the Election tribunal cases slated on the 11th,12th and 13th of May, 2023. Please I want Nairalanders to verify the authenticity of this news. If it is true, then God's hand is at work. Because a prophet prophesied the date for the hearing to be 13th of May, and he spoke about who won the Election case - this was in the first week of March.
No human being alive has any power of prophesy. The prophets are long dead
Its a business stunt. You want to make Nigerians think you care so as to divert air traffic towards your airline. Its no wonder you started flights to Maiduguri of all places. Anyway its all for good
sonature1: Obi was planning to run an all-inclusive government based on competence, professionalism, bankability and expertise. Nobody was going to be relegated.
Is that what the both of you discussed? You talk as though you're his political advisor
SSFeedsNigeria: I doubt if you will ever make sense on nairaland. Always talking rubbish all the time. Tueh!
The worst thing that happened to Nigeria is Buhari and his bandits that ruined this country. The useless man even want to hand over to another worthless criminal.
Would you rather he hand over to the Pandora criminal?
Very true. She immediately rushed to the media to accept a fraudulent declaration by the state REC and she even had the audacity to go to court! I hate politicians who try to bamboozle their way into office based on technicalities and court injunctions just like what Peter Obi and Atiku are doing. Majority vote must always count.
Congratulations to Fintiri Congratulations to Tinubu and Shame on Binani
President Tinubu should not get us sucked into the politics of that war. If he's to visit Ukraine then he should make a point of visiting Russia as well. We Africans have no business in the affairs of European powers
traihit: Don't mind the real mumu who doesn't know that citizenship is more dependent on resident than origin.
Am I supposed to be more at home in the city where my great grandfather's were born or in the city where I was born, bred and educated up until adulthood?
Politicians just sensationalise those things to keep people backward.
You can be at home anywhere. Just don't dream of taking up a state of origin other than that of your ancestors
sixtuso: If so as you just said why not regional government? Everybody controls what there state can offer. Controls there God given resources. Where you can fly in your region to and fro from the rest of the world.
The regions no longer exist and besides, they only favour the 3 dominant ethnic groups in the country. Why aren't you satisfied with your state of origin? why do you want to make claims on another man's land?
This policy only benefits Ibos. No ethnic group in Nigeria live outside their tribal homelands more than the Ibos. Such a policy needs to be put on hold for now
Splendid235: [b]OP why not lead a campaign for Nigeria to dissolve [/b]so that the Igbo you hated so much to seize being part of this God forsaken country?
You hate Igbo but you still beg to be in the same country with them.Nobi juju be that?
An average Igbo person is disenchanted with your rubbish one Nigeria yet you are against their building a country of theirs but will open multiple threads to show your ignorance.
I want to let you know that it is not just hatred you have for Igbo but pure jealousy and envy.Continue hating while the Igbo continue progressing
And how is this supposed to be his responsibility?
Jesus died so that humans could have their sins forgiven and receive endless life. (Romans 6:23; Ephesians 1:7) Jesus’ death also proved that a human can remain loyal to God even when faced with the severest of tests.—Hebrews 4:15.
Consider how the death of one man could accomplish so much.
Jesus died for “the forgiveness of our sins.”—Colossians 1:14.
The first human, Adam, was created perfect, without sin. However, he chose to disobey God. Adam’s disobedience, or sin, profoundly affected all his descendants. “Through the disobedience of the one man,” the Bible explains, “many were made sinners.”—Romans 5:19.
Jesus was also perfect, but he never sinned. Therefore, he could be “an atoning sacrifice for our sins.” (1 John 2:2) Just as Adam’s disobedience contaminated the human family with sin, so Jesus’ death removed the stain of sin from all who exercise faith in him.
In a sense, Adam sold the human race into sin. Jesus, by willingly dying in our behalf, repurchased humankind as his own. As a result, “if anyone does commit a sin, we have a helper with the Father, Jesus Christ, a righteous one.”—1 John 2:1.
Jesus died “so that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life.”—John 3:16.
Although Adam was created to live forever, his sin brought upon him the penalty of death. Through Adam, “sin entered into the world and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because they had all sinned.”—Romans 5:12.
In contrast, Jesus’ death not only removed the blemish of sin but also canceled the death sentence for all who exercise faith in him. The Bible sums up matters this way: “Just as sin ruled as king with death, so also undeserved kindness might rule as king through righteousness leading to everlasting life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”—Romans 5:21.
Of course, humans today still have a limited life span. However, God promises that he will grant righteous humans everlasting life and resurrect the dead so that they too can benefit from Jesus’ sacrificial death.—Psalm 37:29; 1 Corinthians 15:22.
Jesus “became obedient to the point of death,” thus proving that a human could be faithful to God under any test or trial.—Philippians 2:8.
Despite having a perfect mind and body, Adam disobeyed God because he selfishly desired something that did not belong to him. (Genesis 2:16, 17; 3:6)
Later, God’s chief enemy, Satan, suggested that no human would unselfishly obey God, especially if his life were on the line. (Job 2:4) Yet, the perfect man Jesus obeyed God and remained loyal to him, even undergoing a disgraceful and painful death. (Hebrews 7:26) This completely settled the matter: A human can remain faithful to God under whatever test or trial may be brought upon him.
Questions about Jesus’ death
Why did Jesus have to suffer and die to redeem humans? Why didn’t God just cancel the death sentence?
God’s law states that “the wages sin pays is death.” (Romans 6:23) Rather than hide this law from Adam, God told him that the penalty for disobedience would be death. (Genesis 3:3) When Adam sinned, God, “who cannot lie,” kept his word. (Titus 1:2) Adam passed on to his descendants not only sin but also the wages of sin—death.
Although sinful humans deserve the penalty of death, God extended to them “the riches of his undeserved kindness.” (Ephesians 1:7) His provision to redeem mankind—sending Jesus as a perfect sacrifice—was both profoundly just and supremely merciful.
When did Jesus die?
Jesus died at “the ninth hour” from sunrise, or at about three o’clock in the afternoon of the Jewish Passover. (Mark 15:33-37) That date corresponds to Friday, April 1, 33 C.E., according to modern calendars.
Where did Jesus die?
Jesus was executed at “the so-called Skull Place, which is called Golʹgo·tha in Hebrew.” (John 19:17, 18) This site was “outside the city gate” of Jerusalem in Jesus’ day. (Hebrews 13:12) It may have been on a hill, since the Bible says that some observed Jesus’ execution “from a distance.” (Mark 15:40) However, the present location of Golgotha cannot be determined with certainty.
How did Jesus die?
Although many believe that Jesus was crucified—executed on a cross—the Bible reports: “His own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree.” (1 Peter 2:24, King James Version) Bible writers used two Greek words to refer to the instrument of Jesus’ execution—stau·rosʹ and xyʹlon. Many scholars have concluded that these words refer to a beam or an upright stake made of one piece of wood.
How should Jesus’ death be remembered?
On the night of the annual Jewish Passover, Jesus instituted a simple procedure with his followers and commanded them: “Keep doing this in remembrance of me.” (1 Corinthians 11:24) Hours later, Jesus was put to death.
Bible writers compared Jesus to the lamb sacrificed at the Passover. (1 Corinthians 5:7) Just as the Passover celebration reminded the Israelites that they had been freed from slavery, so the Memorial of Jesus Christ’s death reminds Christians that they have been freed from sin and death. The Passover, held on Nisan 14 according to the lunar calendar, was a yearly celebration; the early Christians likewise observed the Memorial once each year.
Annually, on the date corresponding to Nisan 14, millions of people worldwide commemorate Jesus’ death.
Is this what the white man told you? Who wrote those gospels and why should we identify with it's message?
Enemyofpeace: Dear Nigerian Northern brothers, I hope this message meets you well and that you receive it well.
I have been meeting people here in Canada 🇨🇦. Fellow Africans, including one young boy from Cote D’Ivorie 🇨🇮 I just met.
Everyone who knows I’m from Nigeria 🇳🇬 tells me he knows Igbos and Yorubas in his country. None has mentioned Hausa, Fulani or Hausa Fulani or even Kanuri. They don’t know you. You guys don’t leave Nigeria 🇳🇬 to go and hustle outside and get us “Diaspora remittances”.
You just stay in Nigeria 🇳🇬 looking for Govt work as “Govt pikins”. Every Government meeting I see on local Nigerian 📺 stations, I see plenty of Hausa caps and Babariga. You guys have occupied everywhere, DG this, DG that, is you! Dollars and “Diaspora remittances” don’t fall like “manna from heaven” ooo🧏🏽🧏🏿♂️
People hustle overseas to make and repatriate dollars. Even when you people school overseas, you rush back to Nigeria to come and share “national cake” that has almost finished in any case🤷🏽♂️
You’re fasting now. Soon, you’ll fly off for Hajj. CBN will give dollars at a discretionary rate.
Where will those dollars come from?🤔 From heaven?🤔
You guys move it oooo. Nigeria 🇳🇬 belongs to everyone, and all hands must be on deck🧏🏿♂️🧏🏽
Sincerely yours The Diasporan
We can't all join you in washing the white man's toilets na
BombAttack: No formal conviction If he was not convicted of the crimes, why did he forfeited his $460,000😅😂🤣😜😆🤪
Why is Dieziane forfeiting properties to Nigerian government 😅😂🤣😜😆🤪
There's no formal conviction for any crime in a court of law. This case was brought against Tinubu over 20 years ago and was thrown out. It won't be different this time around
From what I gather about this whole Tinubu drug saga is that he wasn't actually involved in the drug running himself, but he most likely helped the drug dealers launder their funds using his personal accounts. That makes him a drug lord but since there was no formal conviction from a court of law, Peter Obi's case against him is dead on arrival.
SeeItSayIt: No evil mind like yours can be truthful. Briefly remind us with the event that led to the declaration & what AGF did after the declaration.
Or, better still, study them online for yourself to avoid blind arguments in the public.
Nothing like events or non events so just shut it
IPOB was legally declared a terror organisation, Court rules By Evelyn Okakwu January 18, 2018 Reading Time: 1 min read 36 An Abuja Division of the Federal High Court has refused an application by members of the Indigenous People Of Biafra seeking the nullification of the proscription order made against the group on September 20.
Members of IPOB had approached the court after it made an order proscribing the group as a terror organisation last September.
IPOB had through its lawyers, led by Ifeanyi Ejiofor, alleged a violation of its fundamental rights to fair hearing and freedom of assembly by the federal government in its (governments) motion brought ex parte.
An ex parte motion is one that does not require the participation of all sides before a decision can be taken by the court.
In his ruling, Justice Abdul Kafarati said the basic instrument in the particular ex parte motion was the approval of the Nigerian president which was stated to have been given in the application brought by the Attorney General of the Federation.
Consequently, the court said it was of the view that: “the application brought by the Honourable Attorney General of the Federation ex-parte was properly brought”.
He added that the rights of the IPOB members were not abused as alleged by their lawyers and ordered N500,000 as damages to be paid by the applicant.
The proscription order made by the court in September, came days after the IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, went missing from his home in Abia State.Mr. Kanu who is facing trial with other defendants on alleged terrorism and other related offences has not been seen since last September.
