fergie001: OK.....he is copying his boss.... Don't you think? Oshiomhole removed the roof, am I also ignorant of that?
Tit-for-tat they say....the only painful thing is that Edolites are suffering from their squabble.
When illegality births illegality, that's what happens.
oshiomole had a house with a lot of pdp members.
They made sure he couldn't do anything in the state.
I don't know if he remove the roof or if rain removed the roof but it seemed like a stroke of good luck because his adversaries refused to enter the government house. That allowed him to pass his budget.
But at no time did oshiomole refuse to inaugurate the house or do it in secret.
Mk12: Did anyone stopped them from presenting themselves to the honourable speaker for inauguration?
so you haven't been following the case.
Obaseki proclaimed the house in secret and only informed 7 lawmakers, he put the time at 9pm in the night even though house rules says house time has long ended.
Only his 7 senators were invited, then he invited two more lawmakers for dinner and bundled them into a bus and forced them to the inauguration so as to be able to get a quorum.
How do you want them to present themselves for inauguration when Obaseki proclaimed the house in secret?
How will they present themselves when the put the inauguration at 9 in the night and only invited 7 lawmakers out of 24?
How will you take it if the governor in your state, proclaimed the state house in secret and only invited his friends for inauguration? How would you feel if the lawmakers representing your entire axis where deliberately schemed out of making any contributions in the house? Meaning your own people aren't represented?
I am from Edo state and all the 4 lawmakers representing my area have been deliberately prevented from performing their elected duties.
Brightology2: my brother the thing self tire me. I strongly believe is power tussle.
See eh let me tell u something, when Obaseki was sworn in as a governor, he saw all the financial atrocities Oshiomole committed especially the billions he borrowed from world Bank few months to the end of his administration. Abi u wan talk about the Edo University Oshiomole built in his home town he (Obaseki) was really struggling to survive and revive the Edo state economy and doesn't want to to betray Oshiomole by opening the book of record. The party people wants to share the small one left in the state coffer.
did Ali not build in his home town, did igbenedion do much except the scanty stuff in Benin, why then are you crying that osho initiated a ppp in his Town.
His wahala didn't even come from Osho it was his Benin politicians kabaka and Co who started his case.
MechanicalEngr: Omo when Obaseki came into power people knew oshiomole was stealing massively from the government. Though he did well in first tenure, but second tenure was a disaster. You need to see what Obaseki is doing in Edo state. He is the best so far since 1999.
Obaseki was part and parcel of any stealing that happened. He was a member and head of oshomole financial team.
His second tenure was hardly a disaster, that is when he worked in esanland and in Afemai region, edo north and central, his first term was almost exclusively in Benin.
Benin isn't all of Edo state.
Obaseki has been doing the same thing concentrating in Benin
Adams Oshiomole and the 14 Gangster Lawmakers. He deserves the humiliation he's receiving from his own people. It is harder and most painful to take insult from home.
Richdad
osho is a hero at home. Seems you are not from edo state.
fergie001: If Obaseki remove the roof of that Assembly complex now and relocate their sitting to Government House, I hope democracy won't be under threat?
The members should return to carry out their primary responsibilities in Benin-City and not in Abuja. Your constituents are hoping you jettison another person's fight and provide laws that will better their lives.
After all this gra gra, you all will still go back or stay suspended. Only PMB can settle their fight but as usual à la Ambode, he will stay aloof and later when it degenerates, the fault will fall on Secondus.
they were not suspended at all.
It seems you are ignorant of what happened.
They didn't do anything, so no suspension.
Obaseki simply made sure they were not inaugurated, he only inaugurated his supported and kidnapped two other people to join them so as to make a quorum of 9.
They were not inaugurated, they can't go to the house complex it sit there. Obaseki has illegally made sure elected representatives can represent their people.
mastermaestro: You are a liar! Oshio could never have won without massive votes from Benin. Benin and Esan votes will comfortably cancel out whatever is coming from Edo North.
then you don't know how osho first election panned out. Benin didn't vote enmass for him, esan voted osunbor, akoko edo to owan voted him in.
Kundagarten: Touch our wake and see governor and APC is history in Edo state. Obaseki is more loved than the odious Oshiomhole. And I support Obaseki's probe of Oshiomhole's govt. How can you use state resources to build a university in your village.
Obaseki is doing himself, he is popular in Benin and Esan may vote him, but owan and etsako do not know him, what has he done outside Benin?
Nobody is even pursuing him, it is his fellow Benin people, kabaka and Co that want him gone, his problem is that Oshomole has been quiet about his issues.
Iyamho university is PPP, public, private partnership, the government provided part and private provided majority.
Besides, esan and Benin didn't vote enmass for osho first term and yet he won...
APOSTLECHUMA: GOD DOESNT WORK WITH JEWS AND GENTILES AT THESAME TIME AND WHEN GRACE WAS INTRODUCED,IT WAS TO ALLOW GENTILES TIME TO COME IN, WHILE JEWS WERE CUT OFF AND TILL DATE REMAIN IN SPIRITUAL BLINDNESS NOT BELIEVING IN CHRIST UNTIL THE TIME OF GRACE FOR GENTILES IS OVER. THE TIME OF GRACE FOR GENTILES HAS OVER 2000 YEARS WITH 7 DIFFERENT DISPENSATIONAL CHURCH AGES INSIDE IT. THE 7 CHURCHES REPRESENTED THE 7CHURCH AGES AND THEIR CONTENTS WERE WHAT HAPPENED IN EACH OF THE AGES. E.G IN THE 5TH CHURCH AGE ( SARDIS ) WAS WHEN CATHOLIC CHURCH BEGAN TO CHARGE FOR PRAYERS AND SELL INDULGENCE ETC AND IN THAT 5TH CHURCH AGE THEY WERE SAYING A MEASURE OF WHEAT FOR A PENNY AND 3 MEASURES OF BARLEY FOR A PENNY. NB: WHEAT IS USED IN MAKING BREAD AND BREAD IS A SYMBOL OF GOD'S WORD AND GOD'S WORD IS FREE BUT TILL TODAY CATHOLIC CHURCH STILL SELL INDULGENCE ETC EXPLOITING PEOPL AND IT BEGAN IN THE 5TH CHURCH AGE. PRESENTLY, WE ARE OVER 110 YEARS INTO THE LAST CHURCH AGE ( LAODECIA ) AND IT IS IN THIS AGE THAT CHRIST WILL COME AS IT IS THE LAST. LAODECIA IS AN AGE OF OVER EDUCATION AND INCREASED KNOWLEDGE AND WEALTH AND COMPETITION AMONG CHURCHES, WHERE EVERY BODY CLAIMS TO KNOW IT ALL AND TO BE RICH AS YOU SEE AMONG MODERN CRIMINALS CALLED MEN OF GOD TODAY BUT THEY ARE NAKED, BLIND AND MISERABLE AND DONT KNOW IT. IN REV 1-20, THE 7 STARS IN CHRIST'S HAND IN VERSE 14 WERE DESCRIBED AS 7 ANGELS OF THE 7CHURHES AND ANGELS ARE SIMPLY MESSENGERS. PAUL WAS THE IST FOLLOWED BY IRANEUS MARTIN COLUMA LUTHER WESLEY AND THE 7TH WHO THE WORLD REJECTED BECAUSE OF THE HARD MESSAGE HE CAME WITH LIKE EVERY TRUE MAN OF GOD. AM STOPPING HERE FOR NOW 07054142412 IS MY NUM. IT WAS IN THIS LAST CHURCH AGE ALSO THAT CHRIST WAS PUSHED OUT OF HIS CHURCH BY SO CALLED MEN OF GOD,DUE TO MATERIALISM. AS YOU CAN SEE,CHRIST WAS OUT SIDE THE CHURCH CALLING PEOPL OUT. THE HARD TRUTH TODAY IS THAT GOD IS NO MORE IN THE CHURCHES AND WHAT WE HAVE EVERY WHERE IS MEN BUILDING THE KINGDOMS INSIDE GOD'S KINGDOM,ESTABLISHING THEMSELVES LITTLE gods BEFORE PEOPLE. THATS WHY MANY ARE TIRED OF GOING BUT DONT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO BUT WE THANK GOD IN A SPECIAL WAY WHO DOESNT LEAVE HIS OWN IN DARKNESS BUT HAS GIVEN US A MESSAGE THAT BROUGHT US OUT OF LAODECIA MADNESS. WILL LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU IF YOU WILL LIKE TO COME OUT OF THE INSANITY CALLED CHURCHES OF TODAY. REMEMBER REV 18-4, IT SAYS COME OUT OF HER ( MYSTERY BABYLON-CATHOLIC CHURCH AND ALL HER DAUGHTER CHURCHES ) THAT CAME OUT OF HER. THEY ARE ALL NOW IN ECUMENISM AND INTERFAITHISM FOR THE MARK OF THE BEAST WITH POPE AS THE HEAD.
correction the Catholic Church never sold indulgence and still does not sell indulgence today.

HummeSage: Of course YES! The minimum requirement to form a state house of Assembly is 1/3 (one third) of the total number of legislators. That's what the Constitution says. It's only to impeach a speaker, that the Constitution demand for 2/3 (two third). It will be right to note that, even the almighty Oshiemole did same thing as a sitting governor too. #karma
were these deliberations held at the working hours of the house? We're the other members informed or were they purposely disenfranchised?
shevchenko: Too long of an article The person below me should summarize
We have a similar situation in Edo where in our own case we have 24/24 all of them APC but somebody wants a particular person as a Speaker, 19 out of 24 are opposed to this person.” We have a similar situation in Edo where in our own case we have 24/24 all of them APC but somebody wants a particular person as a Speaker, 19 out of 24 are opposed to this person.
They them decide to carry 6 members into the house who were willing why they invited the other ones as if for dinner only to arrive and be bundled into a vehicle, some of them in their nickers to be innauguared at 9.30pm.
That is the gist, mago Mago happened in bauchi and edo
I guess our argument is done here after u read this.
maybe you should read this

Nodogragra4me: Mr. The first time, according to the scripture, that the disciples were first called Christian was in Antioch. This is the historical account of the name as kept by the only recognized divine records. This you can find in Acts 11:26
From this same divine record, this was not a jeering occasion. It was not an occasion for jokes and jokers. I won't want to go over the account since I have done that before.
The second time the name was used in the divine record is in Acts Acts 26:28.... Agrippa used it... He was a believer but not of the Christian sect. Paul's defence of his believe so enamoured him that in response he said, you almost made me to become a Christian.
The third and last time you find the name in the scripture is in 1 Peter 4:16.... This I have also expounded here.
Then the footnote on Jesus statement or instruction in Matthew 28:19.... Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptising them in the name of the father, and the son, and of the Holy Ghost:..... The notes read thus : teach: or, make disciples, or Christian of all nation
If you are sure that you are a Bible believing Christian, point out from the records were you got your idea that it was a name given by pagans then sanctified by God for use amongst his people
I don't want anything to do with history if is not aligned to what is written in the divine record for God first speak to you through the written word. He says the books is complete for training in godliness, for correction and for righteousness
If is complete then every other idea must either align or be rejected
Lol,
Can't u read
The bible says
And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
They were called christians by who?
It didn't say at Antioch the disciples first called themselves Christians no! It say they were called Christians or better they got the name. Meaning others bestowed the name on them.
Maybe commentaries will help you.
MacLaren's Expositions Acts
A NICKNAME ACCEPTED
Acts 11:26.
Nations and parties, both political and religious, very often call themselves by one name, and are known to the outside world by another. These outside names are generally given in contempt; and yet they sometimes manage to hit the very centre of the characteristics of the people on whom they are bestowed, and so by degrees get to be adopted by them, and worn as an honour.
So it has been with the name ‘Christian.’ It was given at the first by the inhabitants of the Syrian city of Antioch, to a new sort of people that had sprung up amongst them, and whom they could not quite make out. They would not fit into any of their categories, and so they had to invent a new name for them. It is never used in the New Testament by Christians about themselves. It occurs here in this text; it occurs in Agrippa’s half-contemptuous exclamation: ‘You seem to think it is a very small matter to make me-me, a king!-a Christian, one of those despised people!’ And it occurs once more, where the Apostle Peter is specifying the charges brought against them: ‘If any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf {1 Peter 4:16}. That sounds like the beginning of the process which has gone on ever since, by which the nickname, flung by the sarcastic men of Antioch, has been turned into the designation by which, all over the world, the followers of Jesus Christ have been proud to call themselves.
Now in this text there are the outside name by which the world calls the followers of Jesus Christ, and one of the many interior names by which the Church called itself. I have thought it might be profitable now to put all the New Testament names for Christ’s followers together, and think about them.
Nodogragra4me: Before now, you and the other inches guy claimed that the scripture was written by your church. I states that that information wasn't true. And I gave many instances from the divine record to support my position; chief of them being that Jesus Christ himself quoted the old testament extensively when he expounded from ALL scripture ALL that was written concerning him by ALL the prophets.
I declared that every where you find it is written it means it is actually written not a manner of speaking, by those involved. I said the records shows that Timothy learnt the scripture at home from his mother and grandmother..... They couldn't have memorized it all. They have to have the scripture to teach it. I stated that Daniel read the book of Jeremiah while in captivity.
After all this, you or the other guy asked me about the new testament and I stated that they are actually personal notes, diary records and letters of the actual disciples of Jesus Christ... When you read the new testament you won't fail to notice that sometimes it becomes personal with phrases like, we then journeyed into.
As I stated then so am I restating now that everything about the scripture is in the scripture. It was written to defend it self for eternity against misrepresentation and misinformation.
If you translate the Bible as it is still happening today, from one language to another, it does not in any way make you the author. You only translated it into the English Language of that era to give it a wider reach, nothing more.
I will continue with the rest of your post as time permits
MiddleDimension: @ubenedictus @chukwudi et al, you will probably believe this guy as interesting when he started off with his father was a rosicrucian until he ''gave his life to christ''. i really wonder what you think now as he mentions your holy mary in a negative light.
I was not interested from the get go, not am I particularly impressed by private revelations that go against 2000 years of Christianity
mudiana: okay u actually read something different. There are two dramas that played. The first was the inauguration of 9 members of Edo state house of assembly and also the election of the speaker and deputy done by these 9 men which was supported by obaseki. This was done Monday night if I am not mistaken and we saw a lawmaker wearing short that day.
The second drama that played was the organization of the group left out to get their own speaker. And their plot was been planned at the hotel. Obaseki men got wind of it and stormed the place where they arrested oshiomole's brother and some others. These are the group loyal to oshiomole.
So where is the kidnapping you are talking about came from. Did obaseki kidnap his own group and got a speaker and deputy for himself? Or did he kidnap oshiomole's group and got a speaker and deputy for oshiomole?
I don't know wat u re reading... I live in Benin, I pass the government house every day to my place of hustle. Tell me what you know not the rubbish you read on naira land.
that first inauguration is the one where some of the lawmakers were kidnapped to make the Quorum because without that number the house cannot sit.
How many honorable do we have in the state? How come obaseki inaugurated only 9 , a minority at night and sidelined the majority?
Oshomoles brother is an elected member of the house, he was elected this year, he is there as an elected representative of his people to protest the fact that himself and his people were schemed out of the house by Obaseki,. He isn't there to represent Oshomole.
So I guess you are in support of Obaseki sidelining a majority of the legislature of the state, an independent arm of government and siting a minority?
Even his minority he had to kidnap some members just to make quorum.
agbonkamen: because you were among the people he kidnapped abi? I don't know why some Nigerians are short sighted.
You are long sighted that is why a governor refused to inaugurate the house at the right time until he was condemned at a press conference. That is why he took them to a forced swearing in at night
mudiana: did you just say kidnap? Hey u! Are you alright at all. Do you even live in Benin cos I do. The hotel where they went to catch some members of Edo state house of assembly plotting is not so far from my house. If you don't know what kidnap is, just shut up fast.
are they criminals that you will go and catch them? Were they planing to rob a bank?
You take people against their will, force and intimidate them...and make them do your will at midnight. That is kidnapping.
wink2015: OSHIOMOLE CONDEMN GODFATHERISM DURING THE INGLORIOUS PDP YEARS.
HE WAS AT THE FORE FRONT OF PEOPLE WHO FOUGHT THE THEN "MR FIX IT" LATE CHIEF ANTHONY ANINI WHO WAS THE EMPEROR OF GODFATHERISM.
BUT HE SEEMS TO HAVE FORGOTTEN HIS HISTORY BOOKS GOING BY THE WAY HE IS AT DAGGER DRAWN WITH GOVERNOR OBASEKI.
He wants to enjoy the same STATUS like ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU.
On the contrary Lagos state is different from Edo state.
I do not see how the TINUBU Toga that he is wearing will fit into his body in Edo state.
which dagger drawn.
It is party people fighting Obaseki not Osho. Osho is a parrot, if he has a problem with you he will insult you in public not go silent.
Obaseki has been stepping on toes, his party people has already reported him but Osho has decided to not Wade into the matter because he is now at the national not local politics.
Obaseki is now chasing shadows, he refused to inaugurate the house of assembly, when they complained in the press he kidnapped some them took them to the house complex and swore them in with threats at midnight, and got a funny quorum to elect his people as officers at midnight when many weren't present.
Adonko: And who is the one taking him to that doom ..my friend dear is no doom anywhere for him .when his predecessor was building a kind that was never seen mansion in his village and telling a widow to go and die he wasn't moving towards doom abi.
Oshio is finished.... In politics nobody reigns forever or you think this Ambode who has the knife and yam at his disposal and couldn't use it ..una nu know Edo people ..one man nu fit dey dictate for that state for years for wetin who born am.
this is how you justify Obaseki midnight fiasco with the house abi? Treating elected officials as houseboy.
This your support of illegality will come back to bite him. He will not remain there forever.
Aladdin1: what is the barrister waiting for?If truly he was abducted he should seek legal redress.cos no one is above the law.but methinks they all collected the money but are trying to save face in the sight of their master oshiomhole and to garner public sympathy
She was born deaf. This past May 11 shortly before 20:30 she took off her prosthesis and said to her mother: “I no longer need this. I hear now.” We’re talking about a little girl who was staying with her mother, her grandmother and her brother on pilgrimage in Lourdes. “The girl was born prematurely on December 25 of 2009. To save her, her doctors administered the drugs that damaged her hearing organs. In Gaslini Hospital of Genoa their own prostheses were used as hearing devices had no effect on her. With the help of speech therapy she learned in the course of time to read lips and speak with difficulty. Her story was told Giuseppe Secondi, the Unitalsi conductor of Milan West, who led the pilgrimage with the girl. Unitalsi is an ecclesial service, the Ambulance service operates at Lourdes and other international as well as Italian sanctuaries. As a gift to her family, the mother decided to make a thanksgiving pilgrimage to Our Lady at Lourdes with the children, which included her own mother. The pilgrimage took place in the usual way. Prayer, Holy Mass, dipping into the wells. On the evening of May 11, “we returned after the conclusion of the Eucharistic procession to the hotel,” said the mother. “I was playing a bit with the kids, then I wanted to go to the meeting of the pilgrims who are first time attendees on a pilgrimage to Lourdes. When I told my daughter that I would go away but be inevitably long, she suddenly said in a clear voice, as she had never spoken before, that I should stay.” During the meeting pilgrim pilgrimage conductor Secondi was called. He was told that the girl had taken her hearing prosthesis out and told the mother that she no longer need it, because she could now hear. “We stood in disbelief in front of her. From an adjoining room we called her several times with a soft voice and have found that she could really hear us. Above all, she now speaks very clearly, very different than before.” “I thank you, dear Mother, for what you have done to me” The next morning Secondi wanted to apply to the Bureau des Constatations Medicales to report the case. Previously, he had accompanied the girl to the grotto. While they were there, he said to the child: “Let’s go to my Madonna, mine has a crown on her head.” So we went to the great Lady of Lourdes, crowned statue of Our Lady. As we stood in front of her, the girl said to my astonishment: “I thank you, dear Mother, for what you have done to me.” Then we went to the Bureau des Constatations Medicales. In the waiting room there was a stylized representation of Marie. The girl said: “this is ugly.” When we came into the doctor’s room, a picture of the Blessed Mother crowned was hung: “This is the Madonna,” she said with satisfaction. The doctors examined her in detail, then the mother. They performed listening tests. Investigations have since continued in Italy and are still underway. Doctors in Genoa have presented to their astonishment, a cure of the hearing organs. There was also a change in character that took place. The previously very closed, introverted, girl has now become wholly different. In Lourdes one proceeds with caution and accurate investigations are necessary before a miracle is recognized. The surveys will therefore take some time to complete. The girl and the family are certainly happy and grateful.
Paris’ Notre Dame Cathedral experienced a devastating fire in April.
Two months later, priests, canons and construction workers in Paris celebrated the first Mass in the cathedral since the fire.
Paris Archbishop Michel Aupetit celebrated Mass in the Chapel of the Virgin behind the choir, with only 30 people present (for security reasons). Everyone also wore a hard hat as a safety precaution.
The Daily Mail reported that worshippers could not attend the Mass, but watched the live feed online.
Global News, YouTube “The annual Dedication Mass commemorated the cathedral’s consecration as a place of worship,” AP News reported.
“This cathedral is a place of worship, it is its very own and unique purpose,” Archbishop Aupetit said.
Another French priest said that the Cathedral’s Mass was “a true happiness, full of hope" “We will rebuild this cathedral. It will take time of course — a lot of money, lot of time, lot of work — but we will succeed,” Father Pierre Vivares said. “Today it’s a small but a true victory against the disaster we have had.”
According to Radio-Canada Information, Archbishop Aupetit said that “Notre-Dame was above all a place of faith, whereas the fire that ravaged the building on April 15 had raised a wave of emotion far beyond the only community of believers.
‘It’s a reminder that this cathedral is still alive and celebrating what it was built for.'”
Khaleell001: See, Ilike it when we tell each other the truth without being selective. How has the father in question lead his community as a priest? How has he affected his immediate environment? I can tell you that they are people who would question some of the things he does in that community that we are not seeing but yet most of them come out to bear their fangs
How has many of you criticising this government lead well in your various capacity? How has your work ethics helped in making others fall in line with their duties?
One thing I notice about most Nigerians is that we like pointing fingers while we look away form our short comings. Whereas in actual fact no one function in isolation. Don't get me wrong, I am not holding forth for the errors and decision of this administration, but when we criticise we must not criticise in isolation.
The fact remains, a government is as good as is people.
You can't have cheats liars, pilfers and all other vices around and we keep pretending we are not part of the problem.
I have a collegeaue in my work place popularly referred to as a pastor, but I found out that the same pastor is using a mobile network cheat; and this person will come. tomorrow and be busy criticising the government for corruption when he is in fact aiding and abetting corruption in his own domain.
the Bishop in question has an excellent record as a pastor and Bishop. If you have anything against him say it.
If not face the points he raised and stop the ad hominem
doctokwus: Shut up! Why did your type not speak up before the election? Even when Mbaka was making a fool of himself supporting Buhari's re-election publicly,why did this priest not come out to rebuke him and tell the world Buhari is not fit for governance? Now that the harm has been done,he opens his mouth to utter trash. What makes you a priest and man of God if you cannot look truth in the face and rulers in the eye and tell them they don't have the capacity to rule? Rubbish!!
Catholic bishops spoke but I am sure you didn't listen.
They told buhari to resign because of bad governance.
They didn't say anything during the elections because that will favour a certain party and the rule for bishops is to be apolitical during election period.
Even Mbaka was publicly cautioned for his stand by several bishops and his Bishop finally banned him from releasing political prophesies.
