And some of you are still asking why it is on the front-page. if you are not interested in a particular topic,move on!!! cos some others are apparently interested.
So you think people actually viewed it because they believe its important? Curiosity friend, not that the caption has anything to add to our intellect just like someone taking a stroll and hears some people shouting and decides to look in that direction so my point still remains that we need something more important and valuable on the front page. Simple.

Greed is my greatest problem while fear is the problem for the starters.

This is why i have developed an expert advisor to do the trading for me and presently testing it.

Unfortunately fx trading does not give the profits many people dream of. If you are expecting a cumulative profit of 50/100% returns in a year then fx can work for you but if you are the type who wants 60/100% in a month then look elsewhere.

PoliticsRe: Reps Cut Short Holiday Over Bribery Scandal by Toks2008(m): 8:38pm On Jun 13, 2012
In an exclusive interview with THISDAY, chairman, Zenon Petroleum & Gas Ltd, Mr. Femi Otedola, who hitherto was suspected of being behind the $3 million bribery scandal, blew the lid on what transpired and how chairman of the ad-hoc committee, Hon. Farouk Lawan, and the secretary of the committee, Mr. Boniface Emenalo, had collected $620,000 from him in a sting operation masterminded by the security agencies.

The amount was part payment for the $3 million, which he alleged Lawan had demanded from him to exonerate Zenon Oil from the ad-hoc committee's report.

As the scandal unfolds, it was learnt that operatives of the State Security Services have sent a video recording of the incident to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for further scrutiny and action.

Otedola, who was opening up on the issue for the first time, narrated how Lawan at the outset of the probe had approached him to get some insight into the workings of the downstream oil and gas sector.

Otedola said he obliged him and ensured that his managing directors of Forte Oil Plc and Zenon Oil appeared at the subsidy probe during its public hearing after both companies had been invited by the committee.

During the probe, he said the committee was informed in no uncertain terms that Zenon does not and has never made claims for subsidy payments from the federal government, as the company was engaged solely in the importation of diesel, a product that is not subsidised.

Zenon's managing director, Mr. Kanmi Kareem Otaru, during the probe had denied that the company had anything to do with the subsidy regime. He told the committee, "For the avoidance of doubt Zenon never participated or benefited from the subsidy scheme or Petroleum Support Fund (PSF)."

According to him, going by the Act which established the PSF scheme, "Zenon couldn't participate in it because we don't have a network of PMS retail outlets which was one of the key criteria beneficiaries must meet and as such we are not qualified to participate to draw from subsidy payments on PMS. So we never collected as records will show."

Irrespective of the clarification made at the hearing, Otedola said Lawan still approached him a few days before the report was to be tabled on April 18, 2012 before the House of Representatives, demanding money so that Zenon's name will be kept out of the report.

"When this happened, I was very angry and reminded him that Zenon has never participated in the subsidy scheme and that it would be criminal to rope in the company for something it did not do.

"But Lawan responded, stating that several other marketers were playing ball and had offered the members of the committee large sums of money to ensure that their companies' names were not published in the report," he added.

Otedola, said initially he balked at Lawan's attempt to extort money from him and told the legislator that he would not pay up, as Zenon had not committed any crime.

"Then a day before the report was to be submitted, Lawan called again, informing me that Zenon's name had been included in the report.

"I, of course, was very angry and asked him to desist from his course of action, but Lawan insisted that I must pay up as other oil marketers had done before me."

Otedola said he could not believe his eyes the next day when the report came out and Zenon's name had been listed under the category of companies that had bought foreign exchange from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) but had not imported petrol.

The amount ascribed to Zenon in the report was $232,975,385.13. The report had recommended that Zenon and 14 other marketers that had bought the foreign exchange be referred to the anti-corruption agencies to determine what they used the monies for.

Otedola said at this point he again called Lawan demanding that Zenon's name be removed from the list, as there was no way his company could have bought that volume of foreign exchange without importing products.

"I reminded him that the amount ascribed to Zenon was wrong as what the company bought was over $400 million for importation of products through the banks – Zenith, UBA and GTB – and that under Sanusi (CBN governor) there was no way anyone could have bought that quantity of foreign exchange and not imported the products having filled the Form M.

"Sanusi will simply clamp down on anyone who tries to pull that kind of stunt," he said.

In spite of this, Otedola said Lawan still demanded that the members of the committee be given money in exchange for removing Zenon's name from the report before it is considered in plenary by the entire House.

Otedola said he then asked how much would be required to make the committee happy, to which Lawan responded $3 million.

"I screamed at him, demanding to know why he was doing this to me. All he said was other marketers were paying up to keep their names out of the report so I should do likewise," he said.

Otedola revealed that it was this point he decided to involve the security agencies to catch Lawan and his committee with their hands in the till.

According to him, "As a law-abiding citizen, I decided to involve the security agencies and they advised me to play along, which prompted me to offer to pay part of the money with the promise that I would pay the balance when my company's name had been removed from the report."

The security agencies, he disclosed, gave him serialised dollar bills for the sting job and there are call logs, video and audio recordings in the possession of the agencies to confirm all that had transpired between himself and Lawan.

He said on April 21, the Saturday before the plenary, Lawan came in person to his residence and collected $250,000 in cash, as the first instalment, "then the next Monday night he came and collected another $250,000.

"On Tuesday, at 9am, just before the House commenced seating, Boniface came and collected another $120,000."

Otedola confirmed that during the sting, Lawan and Boniface collected a total of $620,000 in three instalments as part of the $3 million demanded from him.

He added that with the $620,000 that had been extorted by Lawan and the committee, during the plenary, Zenon's name was removed from the list of companies that had bought foreign exchange but did not import products.

Otedola continued: "He (Lawan) now asked for the balance of $2.5 million, but when I told him that I had no money now that the money was in Lagos, he suggested that I should charter a plane to fly the money from Lagos to Abuja."

Otedola stressed that his decision to get the law enforcement and security agencies involved stemmed from the fact that he had not broken any law, maintaining that as a law-abiding citizen, he was saddened by the fact that he was being blackmailed by of all people, members of the legislature.

"If you have information that an armed robber is come to raid your home, won't you notify the police? So, that was the purpose of the sting operation.

"Besides, my integrity is paramount to me. I started selling petroleum products 14 years ago in drums and somebody who has never run a petrol station is trying to blackmail and extort money from me.

"If others (marketers) have paid money, maybe they are guilty. But I did not do anything wrong, so why should they extort money from me? As a law-abiding citizen, I had to involve the security agencies. Indeed, I'm very disappointed because I have worked hard to build my business."

Insisting that he had nothing to hide or fear over what had happened, Otedola maintained if he was in the wrong he would not have involved the security agencies in the first instance.

In a reference to the strong denials made by Lawan since the scandal became public, Otedola stated, "When he (Lawan) demanded the bribe, I called the agencies. That is because I had nothing to hide. When the bribe was paid, why did he not call and report it to the agencies if he had nothing to."

Meanwhile, THISDAY gathered that the videotape of the illicit transaction had been sent to the EFCC to investigate the incident.

Quote from Toks2008
''Some of us see self-service as improper and dirty but Which Bible passages or chapters speak about it being bad to self-service? It doesn't have to use the word, just imply self-servicing. I am trying to find all I can that is Biblical on the subject. Thank you!''


@Toks2008
 Please read 1 Corinthians 6:9, 1 Timothy 1:10 & Romans 1:27
 These verses talk about the sex perversion acts which include self-service, homosexualism, lesbianism, MouthAction and backdoor.
 In 1 Corinthians 6:9, one of the sins listed is 'abusers of themselves with mankind'' and self-service comes under this. In my Dake's Reference Bible, it is described as un-natural offences i.e. deriving intimate pleasure outside marital sex
I am not advocating that self service is no sin but i am avery objective person and never dogmatic. But Unfortunately these bible passages you quoted have nothing to do with masturbating.

Text of 1 Timothy 1:9-10:
The King James Version (KJV) of the Bible translates verse 9 and 10 as:

"Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine."

Romans 1:27

In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

1 Corinthians 6:9

Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
Christianity EtcRe: self-service Controversy: Pastors Blast Oyakhilome by Toks2008(m): 12:49pm On Feb 28, 2012
Some of us see self-service as improper and dirty but Which Bible passages or chapters speak about it being bad to self-service? It doesn't have to use the word, just imply self-servicing. I am trying to find all I can that is Biblical on the subject. Thank you!

Please don't tell me what God thinks about it, SHOW me with Bible Passages. I am aware that the majority of people think God despises it, but I want to know where they got the idea. was it from the Bible or from their Pastors and Priests?

The Scripture is strangely silent about this universal issue, while not shy about all sorts of other intimate situations and perversions,  in great detail concerning sex with animals, etc. Yet the Bible says nothing about self-service. This is odd, don't you think?

Some, mistakenly, cite Onan in Gen 38:9 as suggesting that self-service is a sin. In fact, "onanism" has become a synonym for self-service. But this is obviously an error, and a rather daft one at that. We know what Onan did, for it is spelled out for us in lurid detail; and we know why it was a sin: he was maliciously using and cheating Tamar in way that was wrong. In any case, what Onan was doing was certainly not self-servicing, and you have to be pretty dimwitted to miss this.

In fact, there is no place in scripture where self-service is even mentioned, much less forbidden. This is a very odd situation since it is so common a human experience, and given that scripture speaks of other intimate sins (some fairly perverse and rare) without any shyness at all.

Since scripture does not forbid self-service directly, neither should Christians in general. "Nothing beyond what is written" in terms of how we should help lead others to the Lord is the rule. But since this case has been so controvercial, as the case may be, lets take a look at best answer we can using what we do know from scripture as our guide. We should stick to emphasizing the things God has told us are important, and not be teaching things that the Lord has never expressed His opinion on.

Mas-turbation; self-stimulation of the Cores for intimate pleasure.

Why did God made the intimate urge in the first place when he knows it's a sin?

Would you also say wet dreams are sinful?

Which is better, a rapi.st, fornicator or someone that masturba.tes?

Throughout the New-testament, it wasn't mentioned nor condemned.

Someone quoted an Old-testament scripture that says 'God forbids the fluid touching the ground'. So does that means the use of condoms is sinful? (remember we throw away used condoms with our Fluid away)[/quote]Nice one my brother. Honestly it baffles me when i see people react in a dogmatic manner rather than being objextive.

PoliticsRe: Do You Know The Meaning Of Nigeria? by Toks2008(m): 9:17pm On Feb 17, 2012
The name 'Nigeria' (meaning Niger Area) was first suggested by the girlfriend of Lord Fredrick Lugard, the former British Governor-general of the colony in 1914

The name comes from a combination of the words "Niger" (the country's longest river) and "Area". Its adjective form is Nigerian, which should not be confused with Nigerien for Niger.

The origin of the name Niger is unknown. It is often assumed that it derives from the Latin word for "black", niger, but there is no evidence for this, and it would have been more likely for Portuguese explorers to have used their own word, negro, or preto as they did elsewhere in the world; in any case the Niger is not a blackwater river. The name is thus thought to be indigenous, but no convincing origin has been found among the 30 languages of the Niger delta and lower reaches of the river. One hypothesis is that it comes from the Tuareg phrase gher n gheren "river of rivers" (shortened to ngher), originating in the middle reaches of the river around Timbuktu.
