Nawa oh.

Wonders they say shall never end. This Obodo Naija where we dey, one needs to be EXTRA CAREFUL AND PRAYERFUL TO GOD for protection and guidance. So many insane people on he loose.

That Policeman should be prosecuted as a matter of urgency.

I pray that the woman recovers quickly and is blessed with another fruit of the womb In Jesus name.

At times, it pays if rumours are peddled about an individual, especially false ones like this one. It helps to show those who wish you well, those who are paying lip service and those who wish you bad.

Many more years of Health and Safety to you Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

Nawa oh.

Really?

A responsible government should first provide proper hospitals and maternity homes to help curb the high rate of infant mortality in pregnant women.

Also create jobs for the people so they don't have to depend on such meagre largesse.

1 tin of milk.. how many hours would it last a baby?

After e finish, dem go see another one again? Or they have to wait until Ma Fayose feels like acting for the camera.

I have lived in countries where responsible governance is practiced and I have never witnessed this level of fuckery before.

Thanks..

Oga, we are on the same page jare. I just summarized the English. All these things they are doing is just drama. They all really need to get to serious work with sustainable projects.

As they say, Half bread is better than puff puff shaa.

By the way, I strongly think you are okijajuju. Have watched you keenly for years now

Nice Job. This is the kind of thing any responsible government is expected to provide for the citizenry.

By the way, it shouldn't be news. It should be the entitlement of every pregnant Nigerian woman.

This Minister Amaechi's new dressing style, Hmmm.. It's quite interesting.
And I like the statement; "which was attended by Minister of Transport Chibuike Amaechi and his stomach,

HBD to Madam Basorge.

This thread is a Big Lie . If he had died at 5am, He would have been buried on Sunday before sunset according to muslim rites.

Pls let all this propaganda and "sensationalization" of events stop. Ahn! Ahn!!

Somebody Shout Halleluyah!!

Chai!! the guy has very good taste oh. Hmm.. who no like better thing?

I received the same SMS yesterday, and it has not been funny because I had my F & F numbers configured to numbers I call almost on a daily basis. This fight between NCC and MTN..

For Every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

When two elephants fight, the grass suffers...

In the long long, it is the subscribers that would pay the fine, directly or indirectly.
Porting things on my mind, or I use My MTN sim for receiving of calls only.

Gej did an excellent job.

Only the Nigerians that believed in all the lies APC heaped upon him with Yoruba newspapers think otherwise.

Good job, Yes!! Excellent, No. Mind you Excellent is A1 in any examination.

We could grace him Very Good even, but not excellent. I believe He could have done so much better than he did if only he was more decisive as I stated above.

Also you are right about the media propaganda, but it still boils down to that decisiveness because he was the C-in-C. The government could have floated equally vibrant media houses to sing his praises.

Anyway, I'm still a GEJ lover
Cheers.

happney65:
But he wasnt..He made himself used for Propaganda..I noticed that good people are always taken granted of,But after so time,the truth is revealed..

Yeah, you have a point, but being good doesn't mean a person should open himself to all sorts, even The Bible admonishes that we should be wise as serpents, yet gentle as doves. That serpent part was lacking in his administration or was used wrongly. All in all, I think he wanted to please everybody.

And that was his undoing. A GOOD LEADER CANNOT PLEASE EVERYONE. He must step on toes.

Every one has both good and bad parts of life. Former President Jonathan is not an exception. He was not perfect, but he is not the monster this present administration is painting him to be.
I only wish he was more firm and decisive during his tenure.

Burger01:
Madam, I don't have to lead the way jare. In saner clime, our corrupt polithievians would be languishing in jail by now.

Ahn! AHN!! There is God oh!! So live dey sweet you like this . Hmm...

Burger01:
When are we going to start stoning and beating up polithievians Such treatment, even worse, should be extended to our thieving politicians and corrupt entities in the government

No job, no incentives, no palliatives, people suffer and smile (even wail) every day...yet our corrupt and thieving basterds called politicians go scot-free and unchallenged. Few ones that were challenged and trialed for stealing billions upon billions of our collective wealth still find soft landing one way or the other. Nigeria is a failed system (no thanks to Jonathan )... I hate to admit this, though things can only get better soon

Leave Jonathan out of it!! This stories of woes have always been there since independence. About stoning politician, PLS LEAD THE WAY.WE WILL FOLLOW YOU.

I wish him speedy recovery. Life is very important PLEASE. Goods are replaceable, but life once lost CANNOT be recovered. FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

By the way, I hope those doctors gave him a good pain killer, that wound is really gaping. Are those things glasses or what?

Hmmm... Until a sustainable means of legal income is provided for the restive youths in and around Lagos island, the occurrence will continue.

Before treating an Ailment, doctors have to conduct tests to know what caused it in the first place.

The Lagos state govt and the Federal govt should as a matter of urgency creat job opportunities for the SCHOOLED and UNSCHOOLED to reduce this menace to the barest minimum.

My 2 cents.

In this age and time, one needs to be very careful when leaving the house everyday. Pray very well and cover yourself with the Blood of Jesus Christ. Frustrate any plan of the enemies.

Just think about it, what if the Indian man was innocent? Now he is suffering for what he doesn't know

Also, what if the Indian man is guilty, The okadaman's spirit was not strong enough to resist the evil from his oppressor...

Either way, it is better to be ready at all times spiritually.

sweetboiy:
Very informative post..thanks for sharing.

PART 2.

... I heard a voice clear and precise; " this is a one chance vehicle".

I was shocked, and looked around me to know where the voice was coming from. I didn't see anyone. Then I knew it was coming from my spirit. I looked at the people in the vehicle, the driver, the female passenger and the male passenger beside me. They looked normal and innocent, minding their business.

But I just couldn't ignore that voice because it was so clear like nothing I had ever heard before.

I knew it was the HolySpirit, So I started praying in my mind. I said, Nothing will happen to me in Jesus name. Then I realised that that was a wrong prayer because in every situation, something must happen to someone either good or bad.

I immediately changed my prayer point to; "This situation will lead to a big testimony for me In Jesus name".

I kept calm but because very observant. Soon the driver told me that my fare was #150, I immediately shouted at him that he should drop me, that what I was paying was #100 naira. He turned and looked at me in a puzzled manner because he didn't expect that kind of voice from someone like me (I have a gentle face with a fair complexion ). He said Ok, but turned the the other female passenger and told her that her fare was #150 because he had picked her up before me, and she came with a bag which was in the booth.

She started arguing and refused to pay that amount, so the driver stopped the car, and asked her to alight while he went to the booth to bring out her "ghana-must-go" bag. I was thinking to myself that (so these people want to drop this woman and carry only me to go and dupe me ehn? hmmm.. If she drops, I will jump down with her as well).
The Woman then told the driver to come back into the car, that she would pay the stipulated fare.

He came back inside the car, looked at her and asked her what she was carrying inside the bag. She said it was Indomie noodles. He asked her why she was lying, that she wanted to put him into trouble. That she was carrying a "ghana must go" of Money.

She started denying and trying to explain things to the driver, but at this juncture I had had enough, because my premonition was proving to be true. I immediately demanded that the woman opened the door of the car.

"open this car Now". I said.

The Male passenger who was sitting beside me and had been silent throughout the whole exchange looked at me and said; "Nwanne, Obwasahan gi, don't worry". (My sister it doesn't concern you..).

I never told them I was an Igbo person, neither had I spoken any language apart from english with them.

I shouted at him; "Keep Quiet! Open this door I say!!"

Inside of me, my heart was beating very fast, but I appeared bold and confident to them. When they saw how determined I was, the driver stopped, the woman alighted, (remember that the car has only two doors at the front) and I quickly got down.

Hardly had I alighted, that they zoomed off at an alarming speed.

Then I realized that they were all in the game. The driver, The Woman and The male passenger.

Had I fallen mugu, or been less spiritually conscious, I wold have been drawn into the money conversation, been asked to follow them to a supposed shrine to wash or cleanse the money in the bag which they would claim was charmed, hypnotised and asked to withdraw whatever money I had in my bank account or at home, stripped of whatever valuable I had etc.

After I alighted, I stood along the express road looking at them zoom away, lifted up my eyes to the sky and smiled to My God who is always faithful. I just thanked HIM and walked to a bustop to wait for a MARKED YELLOW COLOURED LAGOS DANFO BUS.

Since then... I have been wise by God's grace.

Some months later, as I was crossing the Oshodi express way to pick a bus at that same spot, A car stopped for me to cross, and lo and behold it was those same thieves. I stood at their window and shouted; "419!!". They looked at me, sneered at me and said; "your Papa na 419", and quickly zoomed away.

Another time, I was already in a bus, on that same road (charity bustop ) when I saw them in the same format scouting for who to scam. This time they were calling Ketu, Ojota. My bus was was behind them because there was traffic and we were picking up passengers along the road.

There were lots of passengers waiting on the road, but those thieves would always stop beside any female passenger standing alone waiting for bus. They asked one, she declined, they ignored the many people trying to enter, moved forward, and asked another stand-alone female until one boarded. I tried frantically to give her a sign but she didn't see me. I felt so sorry for her and hoped she would be able to escape their scam.

So, what is their Modus Operandus?

1. They are usually in a car, a male driver, a female passenger at the front and a male passenger at the back.
2. They usually target ladies in the bustop who seem to be traveling alone
3. If they see you are going with a colleague or a friend, they would not stop to pick you up
4. They are everywhere, even in neighborhoods

So please everyone, let us be careful and PRAYERFUL. I don't know where I'd be if not for the Holyspirit in me who spoke to me immediately and also gave me boldness to confront them and caused them to obey me.

Whenever we are in trouble, Irrespective of how bad it may be, let's learn to call upon Jesus Christ, He is always there to protect and give us wisdom and a way out.

God bless Us.

So this morning, I woke up as usual to get to work. Because of the morning rain, I couldn't board a bike to the usual location where I would them take a bus to Oshodi, So I stood at the bustop waiting for a tricycle "Keke NAPEP". None was forth coming, and the few passing by were already filled up due to the rain. As i stood impatiently hoping to get one, A car stopped in front of me, with a smiling driver, a female front passenger and a male passenger at the back. The "smiling Driver" asked me to come in, which I promptly did, thinking he was someone I knew because of the smile and of course I was still in my neighborhood, just a stones throw from my house.

Hardly had we moved, when the guy beside me at the back seat gave the driver his fare and the driver immediately told the female passenger at the front that she was to pay him #100 naira (for a journey of #30 naira) which she promptly refused. Curiously, the woman covered her face with her head gear, such that I couldn't see her face. As they started arguing, I told them to stop the vehicle, that I had forgotten something. I alighted, looked at them and told them to repent. They immediately started raining abuses, and quickly drove off.

I happily walked back and later got a bus which took me to my destination.

How did I get recognize that they were scammers?

Because I had already encountered them times without number before and as well heard stories of their modus operandus which I would be sharing with you today, so that people may know and learn.

The first encounter I had with them was 3 years ago on my way to work at Charity bustop on Oshodi express way. I had waited for almost 30 minutes for a bus going to the island to no avail. People in the bustop had become desperate and were flagging down private vehicles who would take you to the island at the same fare with buses.

As I stood there with a fat female fellow passenger, a car stopped in front of me with a smiling driver, a female front passenger and a male passenger at the back and beckoned us to enter.

The car only had doors at the front so the female front passenger had to alight for me to get in. As my fat female fellow passenger was about to get in with me, they stopped her. The front sit passenger just jumped back in, shut the door and the driver promptly moved away, muttering that his shock absorber was bad and the fat woman trying to come in was too fat. I didn't suspect anything..

But as I was about to relax and enjoy the journey, I heard a voice clear and precise;"..

...TO BE CONTINUED.

Very bad policy. Why can't they consult experts before doing this. People are already complaining that there are no jobs, the local rice industry that is trying to survive, you decide to cripple it.
Hmmm.. These people have not told us what their hidden agenda for this Nation is Oh!!

Anyway, one thing I know; "THERE IS GOD"!

I hope he has a good 'koboko' to use in whipping out every Whippable in the Senate. No time to dillydally.

I think things are beginning to take shape
