In power play, the shadow government is supreme.

bmaster2000:
Now, with all this rhetoric, you have come to pour lout on me...all I saw from.Your gibberish is the narrative that some people in certain circles want a gullible Nigeria to hear and listen to....


Allow me to come down to your level of comprehension....Consider an employee who was suspended by his or her boss for six months for misbehavior. Of course, many of such employee commitments will be jeopardized, and the good record he or she has built over the years he or she has worked in such an organization will be truncated.

Now, having explained my complicated points in a layman format for someone like you to understand...let me say that, contrary to what some of those who have a negative mindset like you, the issue

Natasha's concerns have not been wished away by anyone. As a matter of fact, the matter is subject to jurisdiction, which I would not want to dwell on further... also, no one from any quarters has restrained her from approaching an institution where her complaint or voice could be heard... as a matter of fact, she is pursuing all of this with a strong sense of responsibility....However, because some of you are detractors who see nothing positive in the existence of this country, you have come here with even more coloration than what the Senator is projecting in her case.

And if you read and understand my comments very well, what I push out in my comments was not what you responded or reacted to....go back and check my comments and compare with your reactions...this is two different comments....and whereas quoted me here.....also to simplify my comments to a layman and lowlife like you, I stated that Natasha could have handled this issue in a more mature way and still retain her job as a senator and still get justice instead of losing

And again, I saw all kinds of rhetoric you made about her achievements, such as buying tricycles for the people of her constituency, grinding pepper machines, and all kinds of charade achievements....if you think all these are political achievements in the 21st century, I am pretty sure you have not been to Kogi State....and you could say more about Natasha's achievement from your cubicle 4 by 4 rooms...what a shame!!!

That is why you are wrong. Akpabio is not Natashas boss or employer. So that assumption alone flaws your narrative.
Natasha employed Akpabio and not the other way round.

Again, Akpabio did not suspend Natasha. He has no such power. the committee on ethics recommended such and the house voted in support of the recommendation. They had to since Akpabio has the keys to the store house.

Now that Natasha has been suspended, she can not present her case before the house but before court of law. The accused has not filed any contempt against her on defamation. How charitable of him.

I still wonder how Natasha and Akpabio results to one not wanting the existence of his own country and I wonder how I'm the low here.

I believe that those items you saw her gift to some of her constituency members are her personal projects and not constituency projects.

Hope you know kogi is an oil producing state and received derivatives from government with an elected governor on seat. How is the poverty in the state her responsibility again?

I understand the bitterness in your response and use of derogatory terms over my personal opinion that has no economic or political value. It seems to have clashed with your job of defending someone that pays the bills.

bmaster2000:
But if it is the other way around, you will discover your own voice.......

Truth be told, the lady is unconcerned about those she represents. She is only concerned with his ego and self-interest in the House of Assembly...because six months is a long time to push a bill or inform the national assembly about what is lacking in his constituency...rather, she is gallivanting around senators, looking for positions...

I believe you listened to yourself before posting.
Why is her constituency recalling her. Was it because there is no benefit of her representation in the national Assembly or they are stimulated to embark on the process? Google has evidence of her personal projects in her constituency.

But for such a gathering, it must have been lead by village heads who are under government payroll influenced by paid organizations under government payroll.

Has she failed any accountability test.

She alleged that the Senate president made comments several times about giving her positions of interest that would benefit her constituency the more if she oblige him the favours she is accusing him of. Shouldn't that be an issue of concern for her constituency if they have not been stimulated to act this script.

Again, how can they initiate a recall for someone under suspension. If the recall is judged valid by inec, she would have to complete her suspension period before 90 days window for a replacement election to be conducted in her constituency.

Every action that is in play by the Senate is not aligning but this is Nigeria.

There was no explosion. It is all a game.
Lagos is taking over gradually.
Next is kano.

Lookmun:
Read the article. Dangote says when they receive naira-denominated crude, they will charge in Naira.

Your suggestion that we should take away Dangote’s refining license and enthrone importation is another way of saying we should continue to plummet the power of the Naira, continue to export value added services abroad, we should reinforce unemployment and high cost of living, high cost of doing business and reduce standard of living.

I haven’t come across a worse post on the Dangote-NNPCL fracas yet. You are asking to amputate your legs because you think they are not fine.

Because those that sells electronics and gadgets charge in dollars since they are imported in dollars. Does marketers that import fuel sell in dollars.
We expected the naira to gain value since dangote started exporting petroleum products but that has never happened because the dollar doesn't pass through the government but in dangotes coffers. How is that beneficial to the government.

Dangote is out to end Nigeria. Not to fix it.

Everything is coming out gradually.
Until NNPC step up their game and start true refining of petroleum products, dangote will keep dribbling them.

Dangote has no Care for anyone or the economy just like the government has no Care for the well-being of the masses. This government is the worst of it.

The government should as a matter of urgency suspend dangote refining and sales licenses while NNPC is given the government ahead to import petroleum products to mitigate any shortage in supply that could occur as a result of suspending dangote. It will be worth the sacrifice.

All dangote want is to spend the naira and keep the dollar. That can not benefit the economy. Importers and manufacturers doesn't charge Nigerians in dollars for their goods and services. Electronics and gadgets are not sold in dollars since dollar was expended to get them in. But dangote is issuing threats because government suspended the sale of it crude in naira temporarily so as to make use of it foreign exchange to stimulate the economy. How can such an individual support the economy.

It is always in the favour of the masses to align with the government but this government is proving everyone wrong by their selfish attitudes.

DMerciful:
Thats not possible because you exist

So zombies really have discussions. And discussions with non zombies. That must be a special kind of zombie. Not saying you are one though.

This statement is not complete. I don't believe you want us to complete it or field in the missing part of the statement.

DMerciful:
Zombiesm

Di you know that zombies doesn't really exist?

Jonathan is not complaining.

It is funny.
They want to recall someone who has been there for them over temporary one time gift from government.

There is no plans to allow him or the state assembly return to power even after 5 months.

President tinubu lost Abuja to wike. Abuja revenue is wikes to spend.

Now it's payback from Rivers state. Every revenue is going to Lagos.

Wike will understand soon.

Kobojunkie:
To those living in the land of Canaan at the time, faith applied equally to all— they were all required to trust and obey the Law of the land— the Law of Moses which was the National Constitution. Those of them who did enjoyed the benefits conferred on them by the Law.

From the write-up, it is not definite that the centurion was an Israelite; the passage spoke only of his faith which we also learn in the same Gospels that the Ishmaelite who was made whole after first being healed of leprosy and the Canaanite woman equally had.

Another benefit that was available to foreigners was access to food from the pantry in the land, i.e. the foods that were brought into the temple as well as the unharvested foods left on the fields by farming, were available to foreigners in the land— crumbs from the master's table as described by the Canaanite woman in Matthew 15.

2. Grafting has always been born of religious delusions and nothing else, more specifically the desire by many to usurp that which was never available to them.

The Canaanite woman who arguments has it that she was addressed as a dog by faith received healing for her troubled daughter from Jesus which was regarded as crumbs by scholars like yourself. Was it on record that she attained the status you mentioned above to enjoy benevolence from Jesus?
Again, you did not provide any references where Jesus said non Israelites who resides in Israel and keep the law shall enjoy the promised kingdom with Israel. Jesus of Israel did mention that people would no longer worship in Jerusalem again but in spirit and in truth. He mentioned that where two or three gather in his name, he would be in their midst. Does that mean the gathering must be in Israel and must they be Israelites.But Jesus did mention that non Israelites obtained what the prophets hoped for by faith.
Until you can explain the faith of the Canaanite woman or that of the centurion that gave them access to your imaginary crumbs, you are only assuming while hoping to be right.

Graphing is what you called religious delusion. But it was same Jesus of Israel that mentioned that.

Kobojunkie:
He was a foreigner living in the land of Canaan. If you understood anything from the details of the Law of Moses, you would know how faith — submission, and obedience to the Law of Moses which doubled as the Constitutional Law of the Nations created by God in the land of Canaan, in this case Judah— allowed even foreigners living among the Israelites to enjoy some of the benefits— breadcrumbs that fall from the master's table— promised those in the land by YHWH, God of Israel.

There are arguments that the centurion was an Israelite. But your mention of non Israelites enjoying the breadcrumbs implies you are not in favour that the centurion is an Israelite.
That means non Israelites can enjoy the kingdom of heaven if they keep the law of Moses and reside in Israel. Does that not break your claim of Jesus being sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.

You can I believe we have had arguments on grafting.

Non of the above have heard of the great faith of the centurion.

Matthew 8:5-13
5And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
6And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
7And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
8The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.
9For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
10When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
11And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
12But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

You mean spiritual wickedness.

Kobojunkie:
Again, was the meat on fire is my question.

Fresh from the fire. Remember I said Clay pot.

Kobojunkie:
Why is the food smoking?

Clay pot does a lot of things. It retains heat

Old men should eat less.

Didi2d:
She was suspended for violating senate rules, not became of her allegation against akpabio

Try and understand issue. We should stop spreading wrong information

Did you read where she was stripped of the senator title and security details, salaries and that of her aids, her office assigned to another department? Was that because she violated Senate rules. They had no plans to reinstate her status and details. See things as they are.
All that was done to make her back out and start pleading. But she proved to them that she can be as shameless as the this senate can be.

Theoretically, the only time she can represent her petition as a senator is when her suspension is lifted or outlived. I'm still wandering how the Senate wants to hear her petition that they have not accepted on the floor.

She is now a private citizen. Let the Senate regard hers as such and not play this media correctness because of possible sanctions from some select countries they might have interest in.

She should not dare do that unless her suspension is withdrawn and all her entitlement bestowed to her in full.

Why hear someone you already suspended without hearing her petition.

The matter should be settled in the judiciary.
Will akpabio risk that? He will be made to step aside pending the conclusion of the case if due process is respected as they claim against Natasha.

Until Akpabio institute a defamation suite against her, he is assumed guilty of allegation.

Prettychild:
Holding fake notes is a crime

Making fake note is a crime. They are two different things.

Visibly fake note.

People making it big in farming are people farming for others. They have this plots of land but can't farm it all because of capital. They invite you to come and join them. You pay for Labour fertilizer fuel for irrigation twice weekly and herbicides if needed on the farm. They use your labour to farm theirs, your fuel to irrigate theirs. They might buy fertilizer for themselves if the left overs from those they are farming for is not enough for their own plot. During harvest, you are invited so you won't feel cheated.
Smart.

That was only a response from previous quote.

Omoawoke:
That she has made a false accusation in the past is a solid reason to doubt her

What’s wrong with you people!
Maybe you will learn when someone put false allegations on your head someday

Imagine if Reno had no evidence to back it up, do you know what sexual allegations is?? So until they start calling him a sex offender for the rest of his life??

What she did to Reno is enough for her image to be tarnished forever because she almost succeeded in ruining an innocent man’s life

I would have asked if something is wrong with you for claiming that her past allegation involving Reno was a lie should mean that every other allegation involving another person is a lie too.
Reno provided proofs and he was paid compensation for defamation. The proofs were provided in a court of law. Shouldn't Akpabio provide proof if he is innocent of the allegation in a court of law or before the floor of the Senate and make Natasha to pay heavily should she be found lying.

Oh no. He can not risk becoming a floor member for a day to be questioned by his colleagues.

Unfortunately, she was suspended.

She has not received any subpoena from Akpabio bothering defamation over the sexual harassment allegation. That would have been his first action against her since she is temporarily no longer a member of the Senate pending the expiration of the six months suspension with possible resolution of the house to extend or dismiss her.

You really sounds stimulated and the stimulus seems to be in abundance.

kabillion:
As per the sitting arrangement, she wasn't the only one affected and it was a routine activity in the house. I hoped you watched her vituperation on the said day.

Have you also consider the angle that she could be the one making advances at the SP? Perhaps, the SP didn't want to have anything amorous with her hence she felt rejected and decided to whip up sentiments against the sp to force his pants down.

Natasha, because of her supposed beauty must have expected she would get preferential treatment which the SP might not be ready to accord her.

The thing tie wrapper my brother. If I am in my right sense, I shouldn't be bothering myself about them because whatever they do there never affected me positively.

You spoke conclusively like someone that has all the evidence. It is believed as claimed by other female senators that Natasha enjoys preferential treatment from Akpabio already. I don't see why she would be whipping sentiment to enjoy what she was already enjoying.

My words or yours can only keep us idling away and won't make any impact in the games they are playing. If you defend Akpabio without him answering some trivial questions, it makes you either a paid agent or a person of interest.

Unbiased is rare when interest is in it.

kabillion:
Explain

While we are keeping her claim to be alleged, it is possible that there has been tension between the two that the public are not aware of.
For her to claim that the seating rearrangement that affected her seating position was an attempt to silence her must have originated from possible disagreement outside the house. If she believes her repositioning was a deliberate vendetta against her. She has the right to be heard.
Again, the speedy suspension resolution makes it more obvious. Now,she can't be heard. Mission accomplished.

But this is just a theory.

The national Assembly has only focused on her actions and conduct about her seating position. They did not hear her petition and has not invited her to explain her actions.

If she has made mistakes on due process, she was to be corrected and she make amends and follow due process to pass her petition.

The power play is huge. She is outnumbered.

yommen:
Why wait till that time? It can easily be said that she is lying. Why didn't she mention it to even her husband when it happened? Remember she once laid similar allegations but it turned out to be lies.

She is an agent. an NPC AI. she can't act unless triggered. They walk with eyes closed. They see nothing, they hear nothing as long as they have what they want. You deny her that, you trigger something you don't know was there all along.
That she has made such allegations in the past that turned out to be false doesn't give anyone right to conclude on her case before it is even started. Let the appropriate body do the right thing. But unfortunately, the body that was supposed to hear her petition was the same that recommended her suspension without any hearing. So no justice expected.

badoh:
But can you substantiate the she was truly harassed by Akpabio? Were you physically present when the harassment happened between her and Akpabio?

Alleged. I am not the judge. I did not assume he did. She alleged he did.

olalat:
Na inside the senate chamber dem harassed her? You can't take personal issues to an official arena. It's misplaced.

AI can only respond if triggered by a prompt.
That is how women are.

If she suspects that the rearrangement of her seating position was because of something she has refused to oblige the Senate president, it will be in place for her to rant and express her frustration.

But when was a committee set up to investigate her uproar and did the department invite her for questioning before coming out with six months suspension?

Even after a court order, we still have the Senate proceed to suspend her. The fast pace of action to suppress her from expressing herself over the reasons for her actions is all suspicious.

No two ways about that.

What if the misconduct stem from the alleged harassment.
