wen i said pursue i didnt mean chase dem away like dat..look at it dis way(wat wil Jesus do) am sure Jesus wil preach against dis fools jst like he did d pharesees and saducee but we giv dem front see and bless dem y d masses which dey are chosen to lead suffer...all am sayin is as a church we av our roles to play in nation and society building

You shud ve cleared d ambiguity in ur statement. Moreso wen u said "money tinz". There's a limit to what pastors can do in politics. They are not activists. If I were a pastor, I wl only talk to politicians who respect me as a pastor and whom I knw will heed my advice. I won't jst be blowing trumpet to deaf ears. Most of pastors talking abt politicians in d media, it is jst to fulfill all righteousness and to ve an appearance to d public. We shud learn from Bakare, Oritsejafor, and T.B. Joshua's experiences. Anything a pastor says will be used both for him and against him by people. U cnt satisfy everybody.

My brother, you're intelligent. I'd like to work with you.

I'm flattered. Thanks tho. It's just d truth. We shud be careful to remove d log in our eyes b4 seeing the peck in others'.

If Nigeria is ever going to get it right, If Nigeria is ever going to be good and if She is ever going to emerge as a great nation, now is the time.

APC has assembled the best team for the Federal level such as never been seen before.

The rest depend on the electorates.

There are thousands of Nigeria youths languishing in prison abroad and many more in slavery. Talk less of millions suffering in abject poverty on Nigeria soil.

Things need to change and things has to change.

Buhari/ Osinbajo to me are simply the best that Nigerians need at this crucial time.

Thy have got good track records.

They are people we can trust. They are capable of making Nigeria the Dubai of Africa.

My fellòw Nigerians, if you missed the opportunity of voting in this team come 2015, it's going to be a costly mistake.

We have waited long enough for a deliverer. Its now left to you whether you are going to crucify them or vote them in as your leaders.

If you fail to seize this opportunity, the horse whip of PDP will continue to beat you real hard.

We definitely need a change come 2015.

Thanks for ur speech. For me, the demon I know is better than a strange angel, esp wen he has a predictable strategy. Tinubu has a vp ambition and wen he wasn't chosen, his choice(Osinbajo) was chosen. Wen elected, they will most likely get rid of Osinbajo and Tinubu bcom d vp. Tinubu according to a news I saw said he wants to be d vp so dat after Buhari's first term, he may take over and contest for presidency or in case Buhari dies, he'll take over as president. What do u make of that?

But RCCG could pray openly for GEJ in 2011 during a crusade within campaign period, when he was not the only christian candidate in the race.

Now that a redeem pastor and politician (Osibanjo) is against GEJ, the church policy has changed, abi?

Truly, redeem church no dey meddle with politics, they only meddle and lobby with politicians.

In case u did not know, GEJ went to d redemption camp on dat day and the church prayed for him as the president of the country. Remember that he completed Yar'Adua's tenure. The church didn't pray for him to be re'elected. I was in that service. U guys shud go and see d video and not jst draw wrong inferences frm pictures.
You shud also know that church is a place for everybody. Saints, thieves, demons, imams, alhajas, judaists...the list is inexhaustible. So don't expect anyone to be turned out of church just because he wants to worship. Jesus Christ asked us to preach the gospel to every creature.

its overhyped........i think the explanation is the post

I guess that ur 'overhyped' or 'overrated' now means their quality is not as high as portrayed. Is dat what u mean?

manutdadex:
i like dis! Churches need to distant itself frm this thieves...next na to pursue dem for holyghost congress! But i dont think dat wil happen! Money tinz!

It is shallowmindedness to think dat the reason why the mission will want many pple to attend programmes is because of money. U nid to know dat:
1. Many ppl go to church and do not pay any money as offering, even so now dat churches use envelopes. Na to jst drop ur envelope, empty or not.
2. Church is not a place for discrimination. It is where salvation is preached even to the wayward and infidels. So u shud not expect that ANYONE be barred from service.
3. The fact that Jesus ate with and moved with tax collectors and sinners suggests that d gospel is for everyone. U guys shud therefore stop saying pastors allow politicians in church because of dr money.

Op. Please, what is d meaning of 'overated'.

My most memorable visit to a father Christmas was about a decade and half ago @ the OGTV xmas grotto, Ake Palace Abeokuta. We had fun and the fee was #20.
Can u tell me urs? Maybe ur first visit or ur most memorable and how much u paid. I hear children pay as much as 1k dis days.

O ga!!!

You don't necessarily need the frown. Just being calm and articulate enough can solve your problem, even when it escalates. Keeping your emotions in check will help you resist any of their attempts to trick you into trouble. Just don't give them the leeway.

In a more civil environment, just maintaining your right to remain silent by saying it can help put their actions in check especially when you know you are innocent. The Miranda principle is incorporated into the Nigerian legal system by section 35(2) of our Constitution: Any person who is arrested or detained shall have the right to remain silent or avoid answering any question until after consultation with a legal practitioner or any other person of his own choice. If the police continue to question you after you have asserted your right to remain silent, they have violated Miranda. As a result, anything you say after that point and any evidence gleaned from that conversation will not be admissible at your trial.

Hmmm. I think I nid to go and start cramming the constitution sef. Thanks.

So what help do u nid

9inches:
Yes, on more than 4 different occasions. Reason is the Nigerian police would always try every avenue to have their way on you, so they frighten you with different ploys and threats.. arrest is one of them.
I am the most cool headed guy you can ever meet, but I don't run from problems, I chose to chest them when they come.

Nice one. Thanks 4 dat. I've neva been arrested but I always imagine how I will frown @ dem whenever I am arrested by dem. Someone told me too dat I cld be arrested for carrying my laptop without a receipt. Well, I dnt walk @ nyt sha. Only on rare occasions.

9inches:
I have been arrested a coupla times while not found guilty of any offence and always come out without no bail.

What do you expect when majority of Nigerians are either ignorant of the law or too afraid to exercise the power the constitution bestowed on them?
The useless police officers will keep intimidating the vulnerable masses knowing that there is a great chance they will go scot-free. The schools should do something about this. Enlightenment programmes are also broadcasted on the media but our people would rather opt to watch an uninspiring and IQ-reducing home movie. We as the masses are to blamed sometimes for some our lapses.

did u say a couple of tyms? Sounds lyk u don't stay away frm troubled zones. U shud do somtin abt dat. Then do u mean u NEVER @ any of dos tyms paid for bail.

The APC dudes are just power hungry. That's all I see in this.

seankafor:
Wait wait wait. Is uncle seun broke? Fp wit only 3 comments

the post made fp without any comment @ all. All dos comments came afta it made fp. I believe something is wrong somewhere. And it seems Mr Seun is not responding to dissome users posts ve been autonatically and instantly making fp with or without any comments. It is more pronounced in dis two users: therealmrst.an and lalasticla.la (I intentionally put d '.' It is not in dr monickers). Mr Seun! Say somtin.

They are simply insane. Just like politicians,
They portray themselves as doing work wen all they do is meaningless accussation and exploitation. Who says bail is free?
