Arrewa:FIrstly, your submissions above has nothing to do with your being a "born again" christian...whatever that means! Secondly, the constitution does not stop communities from protecting herself! Why do people build fences around thier houses, inside an estate that is already fenced round and very secure? Like Park View in Lagos, VGC, Omole estate, Pinnock etc. Why? Protection. Every state has the right to devise a means to protect herself especially when the "federal security architecture" seems to fail or is failing. Ofcourse, one may frown at the fact that federalism does not allow regional autonomy et al, but when fundamental human rights are involved, that is second place.-right to life and protection of your property is a fundamental human right even acknowledged by several UN charters and conventions. If my government cannot guarantee that right per time, are you saying I should fold my hands until "they" come and kill me? Like the "Fulani herdsmen" were alledged to assasinate the daughter of an APC chieftain in the west along Benin Akure road? How can that happen under community policing? Are you aware that in every community they know who is legitimate and who is not? Even in the area you live, are you saying you can't tell who has questionable character and who is straight forward? Armed robbers have wives and kids, their kids live among us, some are known but people are afraid to tell the police hence reprisals from their gangs. How do you think the Police do their jobs? From credible intelligence. Or "informants" as widely known. What Amotekun is, is intelligence gathering for the security agencies. It is what Hisbah Police is. Take a look... Kano- Hisbah Police, Katsina-Hisbah Police, Kaduna-Vigilante Service, Nasarawa-Hisbah Police, Zamfara-Yankasa, Taraba- Taraba Mashals,Sokoto- Yambanga, Ebony- Ebonyi neigbourhood watch group, Rivers- Rivers government neigbourhood safety corps, Benue- Benue livestock guards, and you are complaining of Amotekun? Where was the AGF when these mushrooms security outfit sprang up? Why are they afraid? That means they had plans...plans that they can invade these communities in the west at anytime and carry out their nefarious activities. Do you understand that some men cheat? Even some married men at that cheat, yet they may threaten to kill someone if they found out that their wives cheated on them. Look at it objectively and hollistcally if you like, is it fair? You cheat yet you frown when I cheat. If indeed cheating isn't good then lets not cheat, but if it i, then let us all cheat equally, simple. I deliberately brought in the cheating analogy to drive home my point. That said, I do not and would never subscribe to that way of life, but truth must be told. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. The blame is also on the Federal government! How? By allowing sectarian ideologies to gestate in the first place. 1. Introduction of Sharia in most Northen states. 2. Introduction of Community policing like Hisbah etc. 3. No clear framework on the modus operandi of these privately funded but public agencies. 4. Failure of the Police to "adequately" secure lives and properties. The list is not exhaustive. Speaking about which? Are you aware that Hisbah police can come to your shop and cart away alcoholic beverages? Even though you may be a christian? Where is the right to live anywhere in the country and practice your faith as enshrined in the constitution? The west is saying, okay let us also set up a similar agency like Hisbah and protect our communities, difference is that they didn't do it discretly but with pomp and pageantry....but you should know that Yorubas generally are "show men", they like showmanship and there is nothing wrong with that. I am even planning to go to Akwa Ibom and encourage my folks there to also set up a network of community Policing with Cross River, Abia, Rivers and Bayelsa in tow. That way we can all the "protected" or atleast have a false sense of protection. Lastly, i am a christian. I will never rejoice when anyone is murdered or killed irrespective of his religion. When Jesus walked the earth, he went to the house of Zaccheaus a famous tax collector and a "sinner"- tax collectors then were known to cheat and extort people. Some of the Jews especially the Pharises frown at such association.....take a listen to what Jesus replied.... "Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost." (Luke 19:9-10) I rest my case. |
Shibaraba:ofcoure, four fools woudn't suspect a thing. Smart girls will. |
olasaad:Not a very good thing to say. I'd rather wish them well. Or what did you think? |
You have to wait for her to return and summon you. If she doesn't then she probably have decided to let it go. If she does, you just apologise. Personally, I see no offense there. Pictures are posted for memories and compliments. It does not really matter who compliments us. All this divisions and sub divisions in life is a human creation. I'm this I'm that. He is not in my class etc. God created them male and female. Before you claim to be anything, firstly, you must remember you are human. Either Male or Female. Nothing more......or maybe something inbetween like Bob Risky. |
Beckysexy:He sure does look like him. So what number of bf are you on now? 7th? |
Shiver99:They are still Ugly though |

yarimo:I swear, OP must be ugly to call ugly men handsome |
seunmsg:You are wrong sir. The attorney general has the locus standi to direct state governors to do the right thing. The constitutional provisions are very clear. Every minister is representing Mr President. It is called Delegated Legislation. "The intricacies and complexities of modern government have proved beyond doubt that the delegation of legislative powers to administrative agencies is a compulsive necessity. In no democratic society committed to the establishment of a welfare state, the legislature monopolizes the legislative power. It will be futile for the legislature to solve the ever increasing social and economic problems, unless it shares some of its powers with the executive and other administrative organs of the state." What the attorney gemeral just did is federal government that is doing it. That is not just mere rhetoric but a policy statement. If a man can discontinue a court case (Nolle prosequi) and no one can ask questions what is more? Afterall, the supreme court had ruled inter alia that the state governors cannot dissolve elected council officials. |
BiafraforTrump:When a prophecy was given about Jesus it came several years before Christ was born! Even the name was known before he was born. Let Mbaka tell us now in 2019 who will be president after Buhari. Let him say it now that no one has declared to run. Waiting. |
Awol1:What of Mbaka's prophecy that said Chimaroke Nnamadi former Enugu state governor will loose? The man did a second term. Yesterday a friend predicted Liverpool 2, Man United 0, and it came to pass. Is that one also prophecy? We know as e dey go! After them don inform him wetin dem plan do, they made him prophecy it so as to give it some "validity"..who is fooling who? |
otijah:What is a Zoo? C'mon mechonu for there? Aba and Zoo wetin be the difference? Market road...very dirty. Faulks road same dirty. Agbor hilll, slaughter all dirty. No be Zoo be that? Better wake up and smell the coffee. |
Is it the same Yoruba man who shouts and barks during an ordinary about-to-fight but will not throw any blow....and be expecting people to hold him? ..When did they start being brave? Wow! this is new gist!! ![]() |
jiggaz:To be born in a virgin and begin again....Lol, loads of people feel the coming of the messiah will be like it was before. They'll be so disappointed. |
Venerable612:NO. You are wrong in Youruba Amotekun means..............................................................see me running away o. But seriously whether Cat, Leopard,Tiger, Cheetah, Jaguar, Puma, all join! How will OPERATION AMOTEKUN survive to protect the west from security challenges? This is the real issue not just the meaning of the name. Thanks though for enlightening us. |

I just pray DSS or NA no carry am o. Remember, the last time his lawyer accused Nigeria Army of Abducting him until news filtered he was spotted abroad. It never rains it pours is about to come to pass......Watching. |

Get out of my store!!! Sorry office. That your office looks like a store in Alaba market. All these Marlians sef na their way. "Igbo" ani na "Loud" can cause trouble sha. ![]() |
PapaNnamdi:Is it CIA that fired down the plane or Iran? This your opinion no hold water o. |
CotenantNIG:I have watched this video like 4 times. I dont really know why he should be so arrogant with the traditional rulers. Eve the "uthman dan Fodio" he said is a small boy....I feel it was unneccessary. You can make a general point without calling any of them out. That was very disrespectful. It this kind of insult happen in my state Akwa Ibom hmmm that governor go hear am from them. On the flip side though, I dont know how potent the Akwa Ibom traditional institution is now o. but when I was there it was. My point is a governor should show respect to traditional rulers, whether the occupant is young or old. |
I suspected there was something tricky about this Imo election. But did the Supreme court not rule that Uche Nwosu is the authentic candidate of APC? But he had double nomination hence disqualified? I don't understand again. See as father Mbaka market wan sell. |

After which the chicken will lay eggs after a period of time.
