What I know for sure is that Nigeria will be worse than before if Buhari wins again, bookmark this. We all will be part and parcel of it.

BuyACar:
Wait how can Buhari & his zombie followers gather mind & say our present suffering made possible by Buhari is a sign of better future while his son is driving 48millon worth of bike (not even car yet).....& You say this man has our interest at heart.

Thunder that would fire your wicked hearts & your generations is still doing press up.

Send thugs to cause havoc in the name of APC.
Then go there to play the good guy.

a southerner that have oil afonjas and fulani herdsmerd would take our oil and send our son to jail

LiveByNight:
These people are senseless

How does saying someone has done something good mean one is campaigning for buhari ?

Even if he collects his own share of the campaign funds and prints posters it doesn't mean they will vote for buhari

Isn't that not what they did in 2015 to GEJ? I support anyone who campaigns for buhari if paid to do so, please earn your money collect your share but on that day vote for anyone else ..

After all we did the same thing to GEJ. Please do not stop anyone from making money from APC , but on that day the fact is everyone will vote someone else

Buhari is a thief so let us also steal from him

That's the best way.. collect his money come online shout SAI baba but on that day do the needful and vote him out

We did in in 2015 , I was part of a group we all wore GEJ t-shirts , we did all that was asked , we mobilized crowd at every stadium but we also all knew that we are voting him out

Abeg make your cash jare .

No one should reject money to work or campaign for buhari but on that day we all know what to do

Edodefender:
Buhari is a bastard for doing that

Imagine if this bastard win second term??!

On top our own oil again, sacking our people

If you want to know why some PDP Officials are defecting?

Then read and Atikulate.

These Political Jobbers expected Atiku to be throwing cash around.

They expected the Financial strict personality in person of Peter Obi to give them free money.

The SE PDP leaders supported Atiku initially expecting it to be business as usual bit, instead ATIKU went and picked OBI.

This action alone dampened their expectation 2 d point that they even want alliance with APC just to share our common wealth.

APC has become an ATM machine buying every tom nd jerry with Nigerian funds,



NNPC Baru has become APC CBN. Why did you think out fuel consumption increased to %50 during economic recession?

Where do you think the $1bn withdrawn from FG account but did not go to the Military?

Funny enough BUHARI has no iota of idea what's really happening.

He has become an object that the Cabals are now using to rule Nigeria in proxy.

If they realized u re a threat. They draw you closer and settle you.

Settled TINUBU with FIRS.
OSIBANJO with Pencom.

If we allow this people to succeed, they will buy the entire Nigeria Elites and destroy all opposition.

God forbid it happens cos ordinary Nigerians will gnash their teeth.

My Brothers and Sister's it either now (2019) or never.

Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the 2019 election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, and the PDP, yesterday, questioned the motive for the inclusion of two billionaire businessmen, Aliko Dangote and Femi Otedola in the All Progressives Congress, APC, Presidential Campaign Council. They described the move as an act of desperation on the part of the president and the APC.

Atiku spoke through one of the PDP Presidential Campaign image makers, Kassim Afegbua. Atiku said as businessmen, the President ought to have included the duo in his economic management team to avail him their wealth of knowledge on how to create jobs, adding that listing them as campaign members shows that President Buhari is out to blackmail the successful entrepreneurs. He said: “These people are businessmen, not politicians. These are the kind of people Nigerians expect to see in the economic management team because of what they have done for this country.

“He (Buhari) is simply out to blackmail them because by the time they fund his campaign, he will turn around and call them corrupt businessmen. “Nigerians can now see for themselves what we have been talking about all this while and we call on them to vote out this grossly incompetent administration, whose stock in trade is blackmail of perceived enemies.”

In a statement issued yesterday by Kola Ologbondiyan, Director, Media and Publicity of PPCO, the party said it was aware of the protests by some eminent Nigerians, including foremost businessmen (Aliko Dangote and Femi Otedola) who were named as members of the APC Campaign Council without their consent, in a desperate bid to showcase an impression that they are supporting Mr. President’s re-election bid.

“Our party also has it on good authority that this ignoble scheme of siphoning NDDC development fund to finance his campaign was the main reason President Buhari foisted an unpopular leadership at the management of the NDDC despite the protests by critical stakeholders in all the states of the Niger Delta.”

An excerpt of my full interview with the NIGERIAN TRIBUNE, on our campaign to lift 1000 Widows and their families out of poverty.

1) Who is Apostle Azemobor Gregory and what do you do for a living?

Azemobor Gregory is a messenger of Truth, a servant of God with a divine calling to preach the message of love to the world. By the grace of God, I am the Chief Servant of the Voice of Divine Truth International Outreach, a non-religious humanitarian organization propagating the virtue of love amongst humanity.
You see, there are two sides to the life of everyone: what you do to fulfill God's purpose for your life is your 'calling', while what you do to earn a living is your 'career'. And so, my understanding of the dual nature of our existence has guided me to create a perfect balance between my calling and my career.
I am the MD/CEO of Bethel Mendels Group. I started a marketing company in 2001, from a seed capital of N20,000 I borrowed from my mother. Over the years, our company Bethel Mendels Group has grown into a conglomerate with interest in local footwear manufacturing, Promotional printing, Landscaping, and interior decoration services.
It is important to emphasize here that your career (business) should fundamentally provide for your calling (purpose) that is why you see people like Bill Gate, Warren Buffet spending almost their entire riches supporting noble causes. Bill Gate has spent millions of dollars fighting polio and improving the quality of life of several poor Nigerians. I like most white people; they understand how to live a 'balanced life'. They are not religious like Nigerians, but very godly, godly in the sense that they are compassionate to the needs of others.

2) You said your organization is 'non-religious, can you explain?

Yes, we are non-religious, but we are believers and followers of Christ. May I say here that Jesus Christ is not the author of the 'Christian religion', He came with a message of God's kingdom to a world that has gone astray from God. His mission was to restore humanity back to the rulership of God on earth. The world today is not ruled by Godly principles, but by human ideologies and philosophies that have created an unstable world.
The Christian religion today, at best, is a perversion of the gospel of love and the kingdom of God that Christ came to preach. Look at most of the churches and those who called themselves 'Christians' Do they behave like Christ? Why have they abandoned the tenets of Christ teachings, which are love that could heal a sick world, to preaching prosperity (a euphemism for greed), miracle and healing? No wonder, the great soul, Mahatma Ghandi once submitted, “I like your Christ, but not your Christians, because your Christians are unlike your Christ".
Religion generally was invented by man, God is not the author of any religion and He does not belong to any of them. Look at how religion has divided humanity. Please don't tell me that I am different from you simply because I do not subscribe to your religion. God created us as a human family called humanity. All of us are one irrespective of our race, color, language, creed or religion. I think the time has come for us to push for the abolition of religion if we are serious about creating a peaceful world. If we don't kill religion, religion will kill humanity.

3) People see you as “Man of the Widows", why do they have this perception?

Well, the Widows empowerment Project, we launched in May this year, is one of our numerous social projects designed to improve the life of the poor and the less privilege around us, preaching the message of love in the process. The bigger vision of our Movement is to build a Charity City in Nigeria by the year 2025 that will be a place of hope and refuge for the poor. The activities of the charity city are intended to inspire global governments and especially religious organizations, to promote the cause of love and our shared humanity.
Essentially, The Charity City is going to be a microcosm of God's kingdom on earth. We are going to bring heaven down to Nigeria first, by 2025. Then we are going to replicate the Charity City Project in all Countries of the world.
The charity city will have the following facilities:
We are going to build a free 100,000 housing units for the poor that are homeless; we are also going to establish a free university, primary and secondary schools for indigent kids and youth. The Charity City will also have a massive warehouse that will provide free food and clothing items for the needy on a daily basis. A free food kitchen will also be built to feed about 200,000 people on a daily basis. Another facility in the City will be a state of the art hospital that will provide free medical services for millions of poor Nigerians.
The City will also have a rehabilitation center that will provide rehabilitation, training and skills empowerment for drug addicts, ex-convicts, prostitutes, street kids and many more. And lastly, we shall have an empowerment training Centre for widows, poor families, and unemployed youths.
Please, do not ask me how we are going to get funds for the Charity City Project. I believe strongly since this is God's vision, He is able to make provision for it.
For over ten years of our existence as a humanitarian Movement, we have done several life-touching projects that are basically a subset of our bigger vision. We regularly organize free Food kitchen events, distribution of free clothes and food items, free medical outreach, a compassionate visit to prisons and hospitals. For many years we have been involved in an advocacy for the welfare of indigent kids, through our Project-Help-a-Child Global Campaign. Many indigent kids with heart ailment got funding for free heart surgery and many more.

4) Why are you so committed to the course of widows?

The book of James 1:27, says ''True religion and undefiled before God the father is this: to visit the widows and the orphans in their moments of afflictions..." I see this project to support and empower poor widows as an act of true service to God. That informs our commitment to lift widows and their families out of poverty.
It is important for most of us religious folks to understand that the religion we practice is meaningless before God when we fail to help the poor and the needy around us. Nigeria is acclaimed to be a highly religious country, and yet, just recently we have infamously become the poverty capital of the world. How do you reconcile such contradictions?
Basically, we do not have the resources to help all the poor widows in Nigeria, but we believe that the little we are doing should inspire individuals and the government to come to the aid of poor widows.

5) Do you have any close relative who is a widow whose suffering moved you to go about touching widows lives?

Not really. I think the inspiration to economically empower poor widows came during the last Free Food Kitchen we organized at Saint Leo Catholic Church, Toyin Street, Ikeja, Lagos, in March this year, that was Easter period. And I noticed that about 50 percent of the over 1000 people that we fed were widows. Many of them had to trek long distances just to get a plate of food. I was really touched by that experience. So after the event, we had a chat with them and what they shared with us motivated us to lunch the widows empowerment project since May this year,2018. We realized that it is better to teach them how to fish (economic empowerment) rather than giving them fish all the time (surviving on charity).
Our target is to support a thousand (1000) widows with a free grant of N20,000 each to enable them to start or boost their petty businesses. We assess those already doing petty businesses and support them with the money to boost their trade. And those who do not have businesses are trained on petty business opportunities and given a seed capital of N20,000 to get started.
The goal of this project is to lift the beneficiary widows and their families out of poverty, but most importantly we are also using the project to draw the attention of government, individuals and religious organization to the plight of several widows in our society living in lack and abject poverty.

6) How do you raise funds for the project?

Like I said our target is to support 1000 widows with N20,000 each. That means, we need about N20 million to support the 1000 widows. So far so good, since May this year, we have been able to put smiles on the faces of at least a hundred (100) widows. The funds have come from the little we have from our few team members and my friends who see what we do on social media. We are yet to get any corporate organization that will partner with us to put smiles on the faces of poor widows around us. Frankly speaking, if we have any sponsorship, we can increase our target to ten thousand (10,000). Let me use this opportunity to appeal to the corporate organization to support this cause because this is a project that directly impacts the lives of the vulnerable.
But most importantly, we also want the Nigerian people to imbibe the core message of this campaign, which is showing love and support to indigent widows around us.
My special appreciation goes to the Management of Tribune Newspapers for this interview opportunity to pass this message across to the world. We would also appreciate enormous support from other media organizations to intensify this campaign to lift poor widows out of poverty.

7) Perhaps you are doing this because you are a rich man?

I do not know what you mean by being a 'rich man'. In the kingdom of God, being rich is not a function of your accumulated possessions on earth; you are not rich by what you have, you are rich by what you give to help others. I think the time has come for us to begin to redefine the worldly concept of riches. In our society, we celebrate greedy, self-centered, egoistic individuals on the basis of their 'net worth' instead of their 'net-giving'.
Would you say some of our politicians who looted our treasury in spite of their material wealth, are rich? No, they are not. They are suffering from the poverty of the soul. They are sick and their souls are afflicted by an ailment called greed.
Recently, we visited a poor community in Idimu area of Lagos, their makeshift shanty houses were surrounded by beautiful edifices, obviously owned by 'rich people'.
I do not need to have much money to help anybody, because I understand what true riches is all about. That is the message we preach to the world.

Since when did you start doing this?

Actually we have been involved in massive humanitarian activities as an organization since, 2006, but specifically, we started this widows empowerment project in May this year, 2018. It will last till June next year by the grace of God when we hope to have successfully lifted 1000 widows and their families out of poverty.

9) People are skeptical about the activities of some NGOs because some merely use the platform for self-enrichment, one wants to know if you are not one of them?

Let me correct a notion, we don't see our self as NGO (social enterprise), we are a spiritual Movement with a divine mandate to propagate the virtue of love amongst humanity. Back to your question, I agree with you totally that several NGOs have abused humanitarian activities, especially those owned by African. They are set up for self -enrichment and it is sad. And this is why the few of us that are genuinely involved in positively impacting society have to struggle with credibility crisis. This is the basic challenge that we face: When many people are suspicious and skeptical about your activities, this would obviously diminish the public support and goodwill to achieve your set goals
Let me advise, fraudulent NGOs and individuals making merchandise of the sufferings of the poor to desist from such a heinous crime against humanity, as it is a grievous offense that God would punish severely.

10) Are you into politics; perhaps you are doing this to ventilate your future political ambition?

I do not believe in worldly politics. I am a representative of the government of God on earth. I am an ambassador of heaven here on earth. I am here to promote God's government and His plans and purpose for humanity. I am a citizen of heaven sent to entrench the culture of heaven on earth.
The earthly government designed by human ideologies cannot, I repeat cannot deliver good governance and create a better society that would provide for the good of all. The great prophet and music icon, Fela of blessed memory aptly described our system of government, when he defined democracy as a 'demonstration of craze'.
Take, for instance, I do not know, how we can rationalize and justify that a country, tagged the poverty capital of the world spending about N143 billion on organizing just an election to select people into political offices. For goodness sake, Nigeria is about 200 million, if we share that N143 billion by empowering each poor Nigerian family with N100,000 each to do business, over 14 million Nigerians families will be lifted out of poverty. If each family has about 5 dependents, we are talking about lifting 70 million Nigerians out of poverty.
I interface with poor Nigerians daily because of the widows' empowerment projects, I know how much difference, the N20,000 we give to widows makes in their lives. So what are we saying? I am sure you are also aware that over 70% of Nigeria's budget is spent on the cost of governance. Does that make moral sense in a country where over 80 million people go to bed hungry? What I am saying, in essence, is that the N143 billion budgets for the 2019 election can stop about 70 million Nigerians from going to bed hungry.
What you call government in the world is a farce, which the political elites use to impoverish the poor, especially in Africa.

11) Unlike Nigeria, in other societies, widows and other vulnerable groups enjoy welfare packages. What message do you have for government in bridging the gap between those who have and those who don't have?

Yes, you are right. In saner climes, the government puts in place social welfare schemes to cater for the poor and the vulnerable. The aged are cared for. Parents are even paid stipends to cater for their children. You have a health system that provides free services for the poor; the widows have a welfare scheme, so on and so forth. Even, religious organizations like churches provide massive social support for the needy. But in Nigeria no such social scheme exists substantially, the few social interventions we see are driven to gain political mileage. It is so sad!
The Nigerian constitution expressly states that the 'welfare and the security of the Nigerian people shall be the primary responsibility of government'. But if you juxtapose this basic tenet of our constitution and the reality of governance since independence, one could be tempted to probe 'if our constitution is a' document of lies'? Because it does seem that the security and the welfare of the political elites have been the primary purpose of government in Nigeria since independence
My advice goes to our greedy politicians who run the affairs of our beloved country, "what will it profit you to gain the whole world (enrich yourself only, with our common patrimony) and lose your soul at the end of your life on earth?"
Let me also add that it is important for the government to enact laws to protect the rights of widows. Now, if we already have such laws, I think they should be enforced because many widows are traumatized and oppressed by the families of their late husbands. Many are falsely accused of being responsible for the death of their husbands. Many are dispossessed of their husband's estate and the children taken away from them. I think this barbaric, and the government must put a stop to it.

12) You are into helping helpless women, what is the attitude of your wife to this; does she feel threatened about it?

I have a very supporting wife, who understands that what I do is my life. She is an active member of my team. Even my kids at times follow us to some of our outreaches to distribute food and clothing items to the poor. I also thank God for my few team members who believe in this cause and are making sacrifices to support our activities. You know Nigeria is a funny place; many people are only motivated by what they can get before they do anything. Volunteering is not a culture here.

To be part of the team follow Azemobor Gregory on Instagram: @gazemobor.

Please remember to share till the mindsets of our government and her citizens are changed towards the plights of widows in our society.

Something is really wrong, why is Osinbajo campaigning alone? Where is Buhari?


Whether you like to believ it or not, something fishy is absolutely going on at the federal level which they don't want Nigerians to know?

How can Osinbajo be campaigning for an office he's not the one to occupy except for an account of death? Hope APC doesn't want to handle this sh...it like this? Have another person campaign and have another person as the flag bearer to occupy the seat..

The only disappointment is kwara. The margins in bauchi and katsina is a good sign for PDP. If that's the margin the presidential elections will have then its great.

As for saraki, the man fall hand seriously. You can't be rigged out of an election if you are much more popular than your opponent. He had better go and start begging kwara people if not, he should prepare to run out of Nigeria after the elections.

But how people still vote APC is a wonder to me. I just can't understand. I was hoping that we as a people have gotten to a stage where we can start changing leaders for non performance, but it seems some people have a different idea on their political decisions.

My own na if buhari win, the first question I will ask anyone who asks me for financial assistant is: who did you vote for? If its buhari, then my money no go enter your hand because you apparently signed a pact with hardship.

Crazy Nigerians.
