The Bible didn't tell us how many they were. It said, 'wise men from the east'. I am sure they were many and difficult to state the exact number. They only brought three kind of gifts.

It means they are not really trading or they lost big in their last trade. They should be investigated. They should make public their trading history showing profit and lost.

There is one thing i deduce from this interview and that is "There is no such thing as bandits". It is the usual farmers and herders clash. It seems the governments in that region are sympathetic to the armed herders cause.

See the way Fulani names are popping up, here and there. Can we say banditry is exclusive to Fulani's alone.

There is no such thing as the fulani herdsmen and farmers clash. It is a terrorist attacks on farmers by the fulani herdsmen. Let's call a spade a spade.

The competent service Chiefs will soon swing into action and secure their release without payment of any ransom. Hahaha.

He is not a Pastor. He is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Our leaders don't care because it doesn't affect them. Even if it sells for 1,000 naira, they will still buy it with stolen money. They don't care about you

I am not going to fall for your propaganda. I doubt you are even a Christian sef.

We pray all those kidnapped are rescued.

Unfortunately you are so gullible that I do don't even know how to give you direction.
May peace not trouble you, lie in your folly.

Even a fellow APC member said that the bandits are sponsored by some APC Governors in North West. What else do you want to believe?

There is a demon in her. Demons have supernatural strength. If the demon is cast out, she will have her normal strength.

wellmax:
Did you see video of when they were kidnapped. Hater of goodnews

What's the goodness there? Why couldn't they through the same process negotiate the release of Leah? Haters of Christianity. God will judge you all. The bandits are sponsored by the same people who negotiated the release. They are just scamming gullible souls like you.

wellmax:
But you believed the kidnap immediately.

NA has rescued the children and I am happy for them and their families.

We need proof. Were is the video?

I hope it's not fake news. Kidnappers don't let their captives go just like that.

The south generates the wealth, the north squanders it and bring in troubles.

He is an idiot. They should also set him on fire and it should be done publicly to act as a deterrent to others who are tempted to do the same. Crime rate is high because criminals are hardly punished for the crime they commit.

The IG of police should be sacked. He is the one that gave the order. A more responsible and rational person should replace him. The police is not yet reformed. Rather they are informed on how they can kill more.

Nobody is happy over the decision even the Governor, but my brother to be sincere, the attitude of all traders around that Rumuokoro area is so unbearable...now let me prove my point, go to Omachi Junction, where they are currently doing their business now, and see how dirty that place is, this was what they were doing until Julus Berger wrote to the Governor to help them.
The question I want to ask you is, is it only in Rumuokoro that flyover is currently being constructed, so why always Rumuokoro?, This is to tell you that people in that area has something substantially wrong with their attitude towards the construction company and their work.
I stay around this area, and I know how we were virtually finding it difficult to move by foot, not to talk of driving because of the activities of these traders, so we have to all endure it while it last.
Mind you nobody is happy....I treck to my church every Sunday because of this action, but what do we do?, Instead of the construction equipments will fall on people let's endure, because when a diseaster will occur there now, they will say the govt has used people for rituals.

I know what you are saying. The people suffering it are owners of shop who didn't cause the problem. This is my point. Now the people who caused it are still going on with their businesses but those who are innocent are the ones being punished.

They should just map out restricted areas around the construction site and arrest those violating the order.

Besides, what is happening is failure of government. The government is supposed to build new markets and expand existing ones as trading is one sure way jobless Nigerians can earn a living.

They are not creating jobs and the only way most of these jobless Nigerians can survive is trading. Some of them are graduates. So, the government still take the bulk of the blame.

Population is growing daily but the industry is not growing. Rather, existing ones are folding up.

Generally, our present set of leaders lack ideas that will move this nation forward. They are just after their belly.

No pain,no glory.

So, you are in support of what he did.

dictator wike, will not listen to your plead

How do families who depends on their businesses feed if their shops are closed.

The people affected are in thousands. Even when their shops were opened, meeting up with daily challenges were not easy.

I commend the numerous projects embarked by Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state especially the fly over construction going on. One is completed and four more is still under construction. The one in Rumuokoro is near completion.

Few weeks ago, the Governor announced a curfew in the Rumuokoro area apparently to allow the completion of the fly over construction going on there even though he said it was because of cult activities.

For a few weeks now, shops around that area are locked up. Traders who depend on it as a means of their livelihood are no longer able to do their businesses.

Besides, it is in festive period like this that traders make good sales and meet up with their responsibilities.

It is true that street traders made it difficult for the construction workers to complete their work but it is not enough reason to punish those who have shops and doing their businesses legitimately.

What the Governor should have done and can still do is to guard the construction area with security personnel and ensure all street traders do not sell close to it.

How does he expect families whose only source of income is in that lock up shop to feed, pay their rent and meet other obligations? The petty street traders who caused it will simply move their goods elsewhere to sell. But shop owners who didn't do anything are the ones suffering.

Please Governor Wike, let those who have shops do their businesses. They have families to feed. The hardship in the country is already unbearable and you have made it worse.

Remember, you were voted in to make lives better and not bitter for Rivers people.

Even the Oil mill market which has been shut down should be opened.

Well meaning Rivers State people should please add their voices to this plea. I don't have any shop there. I am not a trader but I feel the pains countless thousands of traders are going through right now in that area.

When all those involve in this senseless borrowing are out of office, their assets should be liquidated to pay back part of the loan.

They all know what they are doing. We are watching.

It will be worse if they allow APC to govern the state. My surprise is that some foolish Edo people will still pledge allegiance to this evil party.

Premier League this season has been the most unpredictable in the history of football. Football betting outfits will make so much money this season. I hope heart attack will not kill some football fans?

Why are they protesting? I thought they were against us during the endsars protest? Now is their turn. They should enjoy the change. Buhari till 2050.

They should get ready to face the International criminal court.

Oh God, just end this deceptive government built on a foundation of falsehood. Uproot them all. All they have brought is hardship, sorrows and deaths.

APC destroyed our refineries. They were working during Jonathan's government. Useless party. Fix our refineries.

The Buhari I know will appear. This one is not Buhari. They should keep deceiving themselves.

If he comes, he will just act a written script. They should just impeach the impostor. Enough of the deceit.

The Boko Haram fight is just used for ethnic cleansing in the army. Over 90% of soldiers dying are either from the south or are Christians. They deplete the number of Christians in the army and recruit more northerners. It will get to a point that the personnel in the army will be predominantly Muslims. At that point, they can successfully carry out their long planned Jihad with least opposition.

In addition, they are making money from the soldiers killed. The Ogas divert the millions paid for the family to themselves. So, the more deaths, the more money they make.

He has calculated all the monies they will make and must ensure that the fight continues till he dies. But God will disappoint them. It will end within six months of a sensible government and all those sponsoring them will be arrested and prosecuted.

Great. Let him get to 1,000 goals.

Yenefer:
Maga don pay They will thief the money.

In as much as I like it, it will be nice if they convert it to equipment, I mean weaponry

I agree with you. If the money is sent in cash, over 90% will disappear into private pockets. Let them send the equipment and they should be transparent. The list should be given and it should be closely monitored.
