Oga you cannot use Bible to say you own a woman now. The command is to love her, as Christ loves his church. Not own her.

Marriage cant be all about sex, we're married for life. I might not even want to have sex with my wife on wedding night. But if we've waited and built up dza libido, I'm sure we'll all be looking forward to it and it'll be blissful.

All those who have been smashing their "wives" before the wedding I greet una!

A friend applied for a job at a Port Harcourt based company called "Sweet Maids" now she's feeling a bit suspicious and would like to ascertain the legitimacy of the company. Please fellow nairalanders, help me verify if such a company exists. The address they gave her is "Plot 105, Admod Crescent, GRA, Phase 2"
Thank you.

Politics / Vicious Attack On Hon Terhemen Tarzoor During Grand Reception In Guma Lga by TimbuktuScribe(m): 7:23pm On Mar 22, 2015
VICIOUS ATTACK ON HON TERHEMEN TARZOOR DURING GRAND RECEPTION IN GUMA LGA

The PDP gubernatorial candidate Rt Hon Terhemen Tarzoor today attended a church service at St. Thomas Catholic Church, Makurdi after which he proceeded to another service at St. Michael's Parish, Agasha Guma LGA organized by Nongov Rescue Group. After the church service, he took time out to speak to the youths and people of the community. The crowd cheered as he spoke with confidence and an in depth knowledge of the Benue terrain.

It was while the crowd was enjoying the well versed Monetary Economist relay his position on issues affecting  Benue and how well to tackle it that suspected APC yoots attacked and disrupted the assembly. They shot at the crowd and in the air to disperse supporters, others flung stones to the stage where Nongov sons were with the aspirant and his team, they maimed, assaulted innocent indigenes and injured several people.

The thugs were brutal, carrying guns, machetes, daggers and other lethal weapons, which they used on anyone they came close to without regard for their innocence. Women with babies on their backs runnung and screamjng for help didnt deter the attackers and a pregnant woman was stabbed during the turmoil. She was among the first to be rushed to the hospital along with others who sustained critical injuries.

The attack was vile representing exactly what the PDP candidate has always preached against and was doing at the very moment. Despite being shot at, stoned and attacked for no reason. Hon Tarzoor maintained his resolve to rid Benue politics of callousness and violence; he left his supporters with a strong word not to retaliate but to win more people over with peaceful conduct and work harder to ensure victory at the polls come April 11th.

Meanwhile this is the second of such attacks, Hon Terhemen Tarzoor has experienced in Guma LGA of Benue State, the hometown of supposed APC gubernatorial candidate Dr Samuel Ortom.

The attacks have all failed to dampen Hon Tarzoor's spirit nor has it shaken his commitment to organize campaigns in a manner that is peaceful and respectful to the good people of Benue.

As at the time of this report, only one of the hoodlums had been arrested by a civil defense officer pictured with a machete in hand.

Politics / There Are Only Two Religions In Nigeria : The Haves And The Have-nots by TimbuktuScribe(m): 12:35am On Mar 20, 2015
IN NIGERIA THERE ARE ONLY TWO RELIGIONS: THE HAVES AND THE HAVE-NOTS

Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, Babatunde Fashola, Diezani Madueke and Aminu Tambuwal belong to one religion, whether we see it so or not doesn’t change the fact that it is true. Law Mefor often ascribes the generality of the Nigerian conundrum to the attitude of the political elite and rightly so. This demographic; the political elite make up 100% of the members of the religions of the haves. Their god is very different from the one that governs the rest of us and he is more benevolent. Suspending and enacting laws of the land at whim, encouraging corrupt individuals and leaving them to God whenever they wish to as was the case between the Nigerian Senate and Abdulrasheed Maina.

The haves are not affected by fuel scarcity, economic downturn, unemployment, and so on. Their “faith” has completely warded them off limits from such incursions. It is strange to see their children in these ASUU infested universities and they cannot attend the same failing educational institutions the rest of us attend.

Their worship places are state houses and legislative chambers where the decision to pass laws accruing millions of naira as wages and pensions for themselves occurs in record breaking time and every other law that benefits the have-nots takes at least 365 days. Yet the latest statistics by the religious council AKA the World Bank puts the ratio of haves to have-nots in Nigeria as 20:80.

As a rule, the haves must treat the have-nots condescendingly 90% of the time. The have-nots treated as such must also receive such inglorious handling with delight. How else do you think a General in the army can order the torture of an innocent civilian and the civilian will thank God in church the next Sunday for being alive without any lawyer getting paid.

Rules are rules until a have breaks it. They have all sorts of technicalities that form the core of every victory at election tribunals. They are not arrested for crimes of defalcation or theft no matter the magnitude, a simple plea bargain will suffice, yet the have-nots have been handed down harsh sentences for petty theft of mobile phones. A case of sentencing to death for a similar offence was even reported three years ago.

The have-nots are not entirely devoid of blame. They are lazy and see the haves as gods in themselves. The have-nots often worship the haves when their paths cross, be it in Christian, Muslim or traditional worship centers. They sing ballads in which the haves are depicted as “Herculean descendants” and the entire community saved by the magnanimity of their huge pockets. The source of such pocket protuberance is inconsequential. The have can be in charge of the pension of a have-not and the have-not will extend profound thanks to the have if and when such a pension is received regardless of countless months spent in the rain, not to mention over three decades spent serving the nation.

In fact even when a have-not has been blessed with an oil well or juicy contract or political appointment to help swell his/her pockets which is the main road to salvation in the have faith, such a former have-not is most likely to frown upon his former flock. New haves are sometimes worse, days spent in the sweltering desert of not having tends to tamper with their mental capabilities. They seem to have this compelling need to cover up on years of unruly behavior they missed while yet “sinners”.

It is truly a sad time to live in Nigeria and although things are picking up, the middle class growing, (those attending catechism classes (Islamic school) pending when they will be accepted into the fold of the haves), the gap within the rich and the poor will continue to rise if all things remain as “equal” as they are. *pun intended*.

My dear brothers and sisters, we have been deceived for quite a long time. Our political elite do not wish us to now they are united in greed. When they gather and share our collective common wealth amongst a few, dishing out over priced contracts and ministerial appointments to undeserving citizens they do not do so based on Christianity or Islam it is based on have and have-not. While the have-nots are busy divided on virtual fault lines of religion, killing one another, the haves are united in greed to rid our nation of its breath.

I doubt if any other religious divide is as capable of splitting the Nigerian nation as much as the rift between the haves and the have-nots although the rift is currently non-existent. It is my earnest prayer that more will be baptized into the haves faith and they will hold better opinions towards the have-nots, before Nigeria descends into the “Black-Spring”, from which recovery is as tough as ascending the Everest. If in doubt see Libya, Egypt and Syria.

Education / Re: How Unilorin Students Write Exam by TimbuktuScribe(m): 7:01am On Feb 07, 2015
I could've sworn that the hall in the above picture is the multipurpose hall of the university of Jos. Even if it isn't ALL my exams, and i mean ALL were written like that. You people should leave me with your stereotypes and generalizations. After you'll meet a Uni Ilorin graduate with second class upper or first class that isn't in the least employable. I met a few in my NYSC days

Politics / Re: Violence At Pdp Rally In Gbajimba, Guma Lga Benue State by TimbuktuScribe(m): 6:18am On Feb 07, 2015

PDP is a party of criminals and touts

So are you saying their campaign team deserved to be attacked? That innocent supporter who might not have benefitted anything tangible from any political party deserves to get his head broken?
Politics / Violence At Pdp Rally In Gbajimba, Guma Lga Benue State by TimbuktuScribe(m): 3:01pm On Feb 06, 2015
The ruling party in Benue State yesterday had its last local government campaign rally in the state which held at Gbajimba in Guma Local Government Area of the State. Despite all other rallies been peaceful, this trend was brought to an abrupt end yesterday. Tha rally which incidentally held in the hometown of Former Minister who left the PDP several weeks ago and joined the APC to vie for the post of Governor of the State. On arrival, supposed APC youths and supporters crowded the access road to the rally venue and used their brooms to swipe across vehicles making their way to rally. On the insistence of the PDP gubernatorial aspirant, no one on his entourage reacted and everything seemed to be moving swiftly till an unknown youth with a broom in hand and a cutlass in another attacked the music truck demanding their quiet entry into the town.
Numerous gun shots were heard and people scampered all over to take cover. Although no fatalities were recorded, several people sustained some minor injuries including a young man in his thirties, who sustained a head injury and was bleeding.
The reason for the attack is yet to be verified, and those behind it unknown. Yet some have said "there are no coincidences" as such blame the friction between the two political parties in the state.

Find attached a pictures of the injured man and another of him been apologised to by the Deputy Governor of the State.
