Hello abujaniv,


I scheduled for an appointment tomorrow and my Sevis fee is still being processed. Can I go to the embassy with a copy of the Cheque I have sent to SEVIS office. Can I be asked to come and show a proof of the sevis payment later?

Thanks

Flatinogenesis ( Noun ): The origin and formation of drug business by a certain race and cultural sect. Example; SE Nigeria is historically believed to be the zone of flatinogenesis.

My thought is dat, some folks r still looking for him, he disguised by hiding his name, nd e tatoo is e address of where his brother will get the full map of e prison

Hmmm, there is a lot of sense in what you just said now!

Again

Jokerman:
He hasn't lost his memory... he recognised both Lincoln and C-note...

Moreover I think he was the one sending those pics and notes to T-bag

The tatoo on his palm means something. i think he is trying to pass a message.

The EFCC guy/gal has got no chill at all!

Give me any photo and I will edit the date created and modified.

It has proven nothing and still same old trick.

I don't need you to believe me. However, if you care then you should do some reflection.

I will do a reflection on the outcome of the matter in court. Thanks

EgunMogaji:
I still do not understand why this is not a simple civil case.

The OPs write up makes me sad to be a Nigerian.

He writes fluently but he's no better than those that support jungle justice. Because frankly this is what this is.

Jungle just.. what? Was tire placed around her neck? Was she burnt alive? Was she lynched? If the answer is yes, then I believe you.

I stopped reading at the point were the op said the said pastor is first a Nigerian. I personally think it's wrong. every Christian ought to see himself first as a Christian before considering his nationality. yes! the blogger woman went beyond her boundaries by miles but the question is, 'what would Jesus have done if it were Him in the pastor's place?'.....this ought to form the basis upon which a Christian should take decisions in critical matters as this. this is my personal opinion though.

He would have chosen to allow blood of goats and pigeons to continue to atone for our sins.He would have allowed satan and its agents to continue to oppress human nature because of forgiveness. See why Jesus chose to make a one-time sacrifice so that such wouldn't replay itself. The pastor simply made a one time sacrifice that will ensure Olunloyo wont do it for other people both inside and outside of the Christedom.

Ayantoyeopeyem:
We all, at d initial stage agreed to her arrest.
We all said she must be purnished for publishing what she's nt sure of.
What ppl r sayin nw is for d Pastor to show mercy. YES, MERCY!
What an ordinary man can do, a Pastor is nt allowed 2 do so as they are suppose 2 b a gd example, as dia fflowers r lookin up to them.
Remember what happen wen JESUS disciples got angry on earing their master is abt 2 b arrested?
Our Lord still showed mercy 2 d guy his ear was cut off.
Christians a bound 2 FORGIVE at all tym.
REVENGE IS FOR THE LORD!

Show mercy, is he God? That can only apply to the Judge handling the case.

babablogger:
Op we know she defamed his character but we believe he being a pastor he should overlook it
Since he didn't he should be called a fake Man of God
Cause as a man of God you should learn to forgive no matter the atrocities committed against you but no he is a yahoo yahoo pastor only interested in the tithes of his followers

Wouldn't it be better to try to win her soul instead of try to condemn her to jail
Sorry o but anybodybwey dey go this man church ehn well make i shut up

The best way to win her soul is to allow the law to take its cause. When Paul's soul was about to be won, he was first blinded. Different strokes for different folks.

hopefulLandlord:
I'm for real, unlike your imaginary friend

I'm doing "other things" with my life, its no use saying those things on Nairaland

but you, you claimed a Jew that was killed in a small Israeli village died for your misdemeanors

Take a look at a map. You're in a small country off the coast of west africa. Try to locate Israel on that map and estimate the distance between you and Israel. Think about the number of cultures, governments, people, histories and stories that you'd journey through if you were to trek to Israel by foot. So someone who was killed in one small village there was dying for your sins? I pity you.

and oh! the Jews themselves who lived during Jesus time didn't even believe Jesus was the Messiah, that's why THERE ARE MORE MUSLIMS IN ISRAEL THAN THERE ARE CHRISTIANS

The religious affiliation of the Israeli population
as of 2011 was 75.4% Judaism , 16.9%
Muslim , 2.1% Christian


but a Nigerian read from a book and quickly believes the Jews were wrong; a book written by anonymous authors



Nigerians need to free themselves from all these nonsense

People with the same thinking as yours in civilized world are promoting societal development with their unbelief but the only job I see you so here is to purposely destroy another mans grand work. If you have problem with the solutions provided from a religious perspective, why not humbly and simply create an alternative platform where people who are atheist and religiously unaffiliated can benefit from. There u can seek solution to problems associated with different perspectives of couples, not all this juvenile approach. It wont do you and your community any better except you don't care. Thanks

Nothing in what I said, suggested that Christians cannot defend themselves when hauled before a Judge or that it is unchrist like to do so.

Jesus went before Pilate, he defended himself and as Christians, we must defend ourselves.

My point is, Jesus, Paul, Peter, Silas, etc never hauled their accusers before a Judge, if you find a scripture reference that contridicts that, please let me know.

You are correct at the fact that, the people you mentioned didn't take their accusers before the judge but historically speaking, there was no media trial in their days, but you will agree with me here that in this present day there is media trial. And the public have already nailed you before any argument can be proven in your favour. From research, fake news spreads like fire with the help of social media. Since his trial started the day he was accused the first line of defense is the authority.

Joavid:
The purpose of this thread is a lost cause.

cos Nigerians will defend that pastor till death.


I look around me, and the people that carry church for head like gala have the worst characters.

So I'm not surprised.

Most Nigerian christians are hypocrites.

Not everybody is in the busiess of 'carrying church on the head'. I am a realistic theorist and my opinions are usually laced with experience and what is reasonably acceptable in a modern society. You should also be able to state your own opinion about the matter and not conclusively assert that Most Nigerian christians are hypocrite when you have not done any better in terms of contribution on the same issue. If it is about hypocrisy, you and the people you are referring to have that in common. They are defending the pastor to death and you are condemning them to death. Same of the same!

Men, you spoke like someone who is alien to the Christian faith and not grounded in the Bible.

Do you know how many unbelievers blasphemed against Christ? How many did he take to court? The Bible commands us to be Christ-like, Pastors have to be christians first, forgive others their sins, so the Heavenly Father will forgive you your sins, so said the Bible.

Secondly, you are totally wrong that Pastors or Preachers convert souls, we are only admonished to preach the gospel, it is the Holly Spirit that convert souls.

Saul Persecuted Peter and the early Apostles even unto death, non took him to court, none even prayed curse on him, they blessed him and shown him love until God touched Saul.

These Pastors are doing more damages to the Christian faith by these actions. Vegence is mine said God.

Jesus said, he that is without sin, should cast the first stone. We are all sinners, including these Pastors and cannot cast any stone at someone for what they have done.

What happened to turning the other cheek, when you are slapped or forgiving 7x77 times a day, when you are offended.

There is no yardstick in the Bible by which you can measure these and concluded that these Pastos are Christians i.e. Christ-Like period!

To the bolded, When the same Paul was also accused and being tried, he did defend himself in the court and followed the roman costitutional authority. By your analogy, one would have thought that Paul will not waste time in prolonging the trial, he would simply have turned himself in and accept the whole accusation and afterward forgive them. But he subjected himself to the constitution even though he believes there is a better Jugde which is God. The pastor is also subjected to the constitution and he is using it. If it favours him or not is a separate case entirely.

alBHAGDADI:
Your response shows you didn't read my post where I said that he's suppose to save her as a Christian Should, not have her arrested. Christ had the ability to destroy his killers, but he didn't. If pastor Ibiyeomie calls himself a follower of Christ, he ought to have emulated that.
Do you know that amount of souls that were won and are still being won an a result of Christ not retaliating against his persecutors?

Again the pastor did nothing wrong. I remember there is a passage in the bible where Christ advised his followers to settle matters with their adversaries before they get to court or else they will spend all their savings in to get a desired judgment. But the person accusing refused to let this matter go, what would you expect the accuser do? The court is the best place in that instance. So always read your bible and do an entire exposition not this selective work you have done
All the examples you cited where places where the people involved took or were willing to take laws into there hands. He simply reported to the authority. But this case he is not the judge and cannot therefore be said to have done nothing wrong.

Because the poll was created by a zombie?

PDP twitter handle decided to conduct a poll on how Nigerians are fairing compared to the immediate past administration. Seems the result is not what they would have expected with over 7000 voters already.

The poll result so far

Whoever wrote the letter, the hand writing is fine.

What do you expect before? Aside the fact that the seating was unnecessary, I didn't expect the VC of ABU to work against the senate. As clearly evidenced by how fast the senate was quick to invite him and the speed at which responded.


Let the lies continue

And you see countless number of likes and judgmental comments on a man who has approached the bench for justice. OP and the rest, you need to take some developmental classes. Thanks

realmey:
well said brother bt he has sons.

He does not appreciate calls,he does not also believe in once in a while visits.

For instance when i call,it is said that i don't come around,when i come around,it is said i don't come often.

Its simple! He believes your human relationship needs managment. If you understand this, it is either he is correct or wrong. If he is correct, make calling + visiting him and some few people you have maintained distance from a project. A project that will see u improve your human relationship management. If he is wrong, make him a case study and treat him specially with a red zone called 'no control'.

Dropped by how many billion dollars ??

Please sensible human being, help me ask them oo.

The group admin should discipline her by first telling her what she did wrong from the biblical perspective, discipline her by banning her from posting anything for a certain period.

I am only saying when price of commodities especially locally produced food items start coming down, that's when the common man can feel the change in the economy. Ask yourself since naira started appreciating, have there been any reduction in price of locally produced food items?

I like that! The simple answer is in two parts, 1. We are our own problem, because our wickedness is unquantifiable. And remember that in the first place, the rise in prices of commodities as we witnessed in the last one year is particularly driven by the unreliable forex. And most locally produced items witnessed forced increase in prices due to increase in foreign food items. I have asked local producers that same question. There answers, we bought our raw materials in January and we are still selling old stocks. A grocery owner once told me that local food vendors sell cheap because imported goods are cheaper. Why did the prices go up in the first place? Why cant it go down? Simply wickedness.

Igbonoid:
Well said my brother.. What has the poor man got to do with dollar whether high or low. Some have never seen or touched it in real life self.

That is true, the exchange rate can decide to skyrocket to N1000, it doesn't affect us. Whether the dollar goes up or down rice will still be costly, palm oil will still be sold high, petrol will still be N145, diesel will still be sold for N280 and BRT will still be N300. I duff my cap for your rare trait of intelligence. Keep it!!

sinistermind:
What some people don't understand is that even if Dollar goes down to 150naira, it doesn't concern the ordinary Nigerian man, unless price simple food items go back to normal. So as long as everything is still on the high side, Nigeria is still in recession to these ordinary Nigerians.

By extension, if the naira keeps going up even up to N1000, it doesn't affect the common man. Think!!

Please pray that God will help you through this trying time. My prayers are with you.
