BBDelta: Hei don't get it twisted; when we said we saw Jesus, it has nothing to do with the real Jesus, the PICTURE OF JESUS CHRIST as shown in various media...Of course we all know there was no proven documented photograph... so don't we are idiots...attached picture is a sample of what you may see......
BB are you aware some people actually encountered Jesus in their visions, dreams and even physically, all these ones gave a graphical details of who they saw, that's how many pictures of 'Jesus' sprang up all over the world!!! JESUS IS REAL!!!

BBDelta: I saw the picture of the Jesus in a ball or something......But this is purely science.....optic rays.....reflection and defraction, expansion and contraction of your lens for 45 seconds.. and trying to go to normal for 5 seconds..after that...everything goes normal......you can program the picture you are looking at changing the dark and light portions to give you some other things...like a mountain, dog, house or anything..... Good one at poster

Andre Uweh: It's true, but it should have been Suleija or Lokoja instead of a barren land called Abuja.
I am not even saying carving a place for the FCT is wrong, all I am saying was that he was too 'in a hurry' that move favoured few of his cronies, and plunged Nigeria in to terrible debts!

Katsumoto: Nothing wrong with moving the capital to the geographical centre but its implementation and the reasons behind it were wrong.
I mean when he pen down that move at a time Lagos was still underpopulated and needing more attention that befits a City at that time. It was actually a move that cost the young country then tons and tons of funds, which were massively wasted trust me Katz that was the Genesis of Nigeria's debt problem. that guy (Murtala) would have made a mincemeat of this great country if he had stayed a little bit longer cool

Katsumoto: It is instructive to note that Gowon himself wasn't corrupt but he was weak to address it just as Balewa and Shagari were equally weak to address it. Heads of state had to give money to Gowon while in Kampala. Gowon worked in the student cafetaria while a student at Warwick. Murtala made the situation worse by the mass purging. That singular act created a situation where civil servants HAD to embezzle while in office because they KNEW there would be no pension if fired. The two individuals who attempted to correct it were ousted from office by the number one thief, IBB.
Right on point pal, but one thing is still discombobulating on the 'Federal capital Territory stuff' by Murtala in 1975, did you consider that move a wise one or a fooolish one?

Katsumoto: The quality of education, and standard of living in general, started decreasing after the British left as the desire to acquire wealth increased. So administrators started to pilfer budgets. People taught the corruption under Balewa was bad until corruption took a turn for the worst under Gowon. Then it got worse under Shagari before Babangida institutionalized corruption.

And like Tomakint stated, Nigeria still has many brilliant minds. Unfortunately, they are not being nurtured and many have to leave Nigeria to progress.
You are perfectly right especially on the Gowon issue, remember when he made the infamous comment of "The Problem with Nigeria is not money but how to spend it" Little wonderhe chose to establish an agreement with Eric M. Gairy, then Prime Minister of Grenada, on May 1975 to pay the salaries of the small Caribbean country’s civil servants ($2.5 million was loaned out by the Gowon led government) during the Commonwealth summit held in Jamaica (you can read this up on page 71, “Troubled Journey: Nigeria since the Civil War”, eds LN Nwachukwu and GN Uzoigwe, 2004 also “Nigerian Foreign Policy Under Military Rule 1966-1999″ by O Abegunrin, 2003, page 63). For that singular "Father Christmas blunder' from Gowon, Nigeria started nose-diving economically, also consider the unnecessary mass-purging of about 10,000 civil servants by Murtala that was another terrible blunder, no thanks to these two clowns!

[quote author=Godman_n]Yea, let Jonathan crush whoever he wants, but you forget that the Nigerian people have been crushing and will ever remain crushed so long as an incompetent and insincere fool like GEJ remain at the helm of affairs. You foolish Nigerians will never learn. You elected him as a fake messiah. The later said his is a tranformation agenda. Now we are back to square one.

We are back to a criminal election rigger; a criminal looter called Anenih; A know occultist; and you fool are here celebrating as if it takes only the criminals to rule us.

I accept that Atiku and co are evil. I accept that North have produced more of the criminal elements that destroyed our land than the South; but you cannot label the whole Northerners derogatory "Aboki". It shows how archaic, uncultured and uneducated you are.

Ken Nnamani stopped Obasanjo in his third term; yet you prefer a criminal called Anenih over him. Tell me how Nigeria will change if we continue to think like you. And most certainly by Sunday you will trip to church like all the fools and call yourself Christ-like. You are a fool for refusing to see the truth[/quote]There is no point venting your anger on anyone here, in your own wisdom, who do you think should fill that post? Just asking

shymexx: True... The CV of some of the major players in the first republic is quite scary... Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, LSE, Imperial College, MIT, Kings College, Warwick etc. and most of them graduated with 1st class degrees... If those people at that time in our history could be so brilliant(and they overachieved, to be honest) - how come this generation is so messed up?? angry angry
The truth is we still have many brilliant minds amidst us but the failure of our past leaders to discourage short cut to 'monetary gains' bastardized the whole show, now 'great minds' who ought to continue in their chosen path of the academics veer off the track to chase money, why? Money is the in-thing now no more 'the die-hard selfless services of those titans in those days'

Katsumoto: They introduced Catholicism in the 15th century but it didn't grow until the 19th century when missionaries made their way to Western Nigeria. The methodists (Wesleyans) also made their entry into Yorubaland in the 1840s.
....meaning Islam was generally accepted before Christianity? I thought I heard something different though huh
Christianity Etc › Apostle J. Ayo Babalola: The Most Used Picture In Nigerian Religious Cycle!!! by tomakint(op): 3:38pm On Nov 30, 2012
I have noticed that the Christ Apostolic Church Worldwide (C.A.C), a Southwestern-originated Church with a large Yoruba following, are fond of making use of the picture of the revered Clergy man in many of their signposts and in many of their programs, even new Churches that broke from the C.A.C also engage in these practices, it seems there are some celestial powers attached to the image of this great man of God who shook the Kingdom of darkness to its very foundation during his lifetime!

shymexx: Correct...

Uthman Dan Fodio brought Jihad to Nigeria, however, he never introduced Islam to any part of Nigeria... Nigeria had Muslims from way back at the heights of the Kingdoms of Songhay, Ghana, and Mali - and they traded with people from those kingdoms...
I mean who actually brought the religion to the northern part of this country? Any clue?
Politics › Re: Catalogues Of History Makers In Nigeria! by tomakint(op): 3:05pm On Nov 30, 2012
Andre Uweh: @ no 19, Usman dan Fodio did not introduce islam in Northern Nigeria. Islam was already rooted in the north even before the birth of Fodio. However, well done bro.
Really? I never knew that! But who introduced the religion then? Any clue?
