Joshua

BULAWAYO (ZimEye) – POPULAR Nigerian preacher T.B Joshua has predicted random shooting by an American soldier near a barrack which will kill scores of innocent souls while an unnamed German top politician will soon fall into a comma.

In a televised Sunday service on Emmanuel TV, TB Joshua told thousands of prayers at the Synagogue Church of All Nations to pray for the United States because he saw a soldier with a gun randomly fatally shooting scores of people.

“I see near or in a barrack a member of the military whether it’s navy or what but he will shoot many people before he gets arrested,” he said.

The shooting will occur in the same way a blood thirsty man in Norway, last year, shot and killed innocent people. The man is still facing trial.

TB Joshua who is widely referred as the “Man of God” said he would give more details as days draw near before he added that he saw a former presidential candidate in German falling sick and getting into a comma.

He further defended his prophesies saying he was saying bad things because God wanted him to expose Satan. TB Joshua said the idea to expose the evils that will befall people was to urge Christians to pray against death or the accidents in a bid to shame the devil.

Misleading topic IMO. Allison is just the current minister, she isn't sitting atop a dynasty for Christs sake. Yesterday it was Ajumogobia and Lukman before, tomorrow it could be anybody surely she hasn't forgotten that. I read a similar report on todays Daily Trust and I couldn't help shaking my head at the foolishness of some folks. After all the noises made about this bill we finally receive it and we r focusing on personalities? Come on people, lets debate the merits of the bill or its weaknesses instead of focusing on issues that are ultimately divisive.

Abagworo: I think this thread is quite old and shouldn't crack your brain up. That was 3 years ago and I've learnt a lot between then and now.

Lollllzzzzzzzz , I never even bothered to look at the dates!

BetaThings: Sorry for derailing though

No need to apologise I wish you'd supplied a link or quoted your source above. In any case, what you can't deny is that there's a case in court and if you'd read my initial response on this Salami issue you wld have noticed the Attorney general expressed his disapproval of Judges for entertaining all manner of cases, he used the words "when our judiciary gets its acts together" showing he's just as baffled at events. What cannot be denied however is that GEJ's hands are tied it doesn't matter if Okoli denied the case, the matter is still in court it therefore would be very unfair to blame GEJ for not acting over a matter that's in court. If you can prove GEJ if you can prove GEJ has something to do with the case being in court then I can understand what you're trying to say.

Oh Lord, please have mercy. There's absolutely no way a topic like this can be discussed without conflict, we all have our interpretation of history that may not be universally accepted or even acceptable - lets never forget that. It behoves us as brothers(?) with a goal to unite rather than divide to choose our words carefully and not sound overbearing or domineering even in the most subtle way. I believe we've been here before and lessons should've been learnt - I know I have. Please I appeal, rid yourselves of the arrogance, we can discuss our various versions of history without sounding like enemies. I greet you all.

dkc: is tit-for-tat the solution?

No sir I'd rather we tried nyash for tat! The point is these things do happen, Sometimes here in Naija and most times in the so called civilized world but it should be put down to the particular individuals that failed as humans to allow their humanity and common sense prevail and it's very unfair to rub this on all Nigerians simply cos a Nigerian failed somehow.

Thanks Mods for doing a good woman a favour by moving the Arunma thread to the front page. A thousand more people knowing the truth and appreciating honesty can only mean well for our collective good. My sincere appreciation.

Kobojunkie: Thanks!!! I was getting ready to get into a karate fight with some of these mods today. It has been a while since we engaged in one of them duels on here. . . .

The level of paranoia some of you have been exhibiting lately is beginning to get out of hand. I hope you guys get to realize how much of a problem this could lead to or better still seek professional help. Na small small play play take dey turn to eat and go o!

dustydee: What are the administrative lapses? Where is the audit report? And when did PWC become EFCC or the police to know that no criminal offense was committed?

Dude, there's a branch of accounting called "Assurance Reporting" and its exactly what you need in this kind of situation. If anyone can tell you a financial crime was committed it has to be auditors, even the EFCC hires "Forensic Auditors" to investigate cases.

Hi Mods, don't mean to be telling anyone what to do but I think this thread - www.nairaland.com/994380/why-fg-reinstated-arunma-oteh - ought to be on the homepage. There's a lot of stuff flying around out there that have to be corrected with fact..I hope my recommendation will be considered. Thanks

blacksta: Nobody has a problem with people been reinstated after an investigation has given then clean of health but when it is selective it becomes an issue. When is Salami going to be reinstated.

Very good point but in trying to be an advocate of social justice and equity it's important that you know all the facts lest you sound terribly ignorant.

The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mohammed Adoke on Tuesday said that the Federal Government will not reinstate the suspended President of the court of appeal, Justice Ayo Salami.

The Minister disclosed this while responding to questions at a ministerial platform, a programme where cabinet ministers highlight their achievements in the last one year.

Mr Adoke, who recalled that the NJC had in last year August, forwarded a letter to President Goodluck Jonathan suspending Justice Salami at same time recommending his retirement, said that the Federal Government immediately approved his suspension and put on hold the issue of retirement since the suspended judge took the matter to court.

[b]He said the President could however not act on the resolution to recall the suspended judge because a court process on the matter was also served on the government the same day the NJC sent the letter to reinstate him.

“As it is today, the matter is subjudice,” the Justice Minister said.

“The matter is in court and no responsible government will try to overreach the court.”

“This government will do the right thing as soon as the judiciary puts its acts together.”

The truth/fact is always somewhere, you just have to put in an effort to locate it. So you were saying?

omamokta: Because she is beautiful and a free woman.

And whose fault is that?

Re: Why FG Reinstated Arunma Oteh by initiate: 12:04pm

@initiate, Its either you didn't bother reading both write ups or you never gave your brain a chance to digest what you read!

Permit me to reproduce here the - somewhat -inside account given by a fellow Nairalander:

Cherechy(f): 7:53pm On Jul 18
I served in SEC and can tell y'all what's happening there firsthand. This woman just wants to be frustrated out of office for nothing. It is mere politics. The past 2 DG's were hausa and brought in so many of their pple esp as jnr staff. Walk thru d corridor of SEC an d hear hausa as d lingua franca.
Madam came and sanitised SEC. The market didn't collapse during her tenure. They ran d place down and left it for her to come and fix. She has cut all d avenues where they eat money frm and dts why the staff hate her. Let me list a few of her reforms in SEC.
1. Foreign course for staff used to be for 2weeks. SEC will foot d bill and all. These courses don't last more than 3days. Staff use d remaining days to shop and stroll around europe and america, madam came in and cut short foreign training to 1week. If it were u, won't u hate her?
2. The dept in charge of processing visas for d foreign training nw started doing chuachua. To liase wit d course organisers, book flight, arrange visas etc were their duties. Madam came in and told each staff to process their travel docts themselves. Book their flights themselves and bring d schedule to Accounts for payment. If u were d one enjoying frm dt dept before won't you hate her?
3. During christmas it is d tradition at SEC to give all staff a bag of rice and groundnut oil. The pple collating d list usually inflate. They'll add names of ex-corpers and IT dt hv since left and amasse d good s for themselves. Last xmas, when madam saw d budget 4 rice alone, she instructed account dept to monetise everything and pay the money into individual staff accounts. She effectively cut off dt channel for corruption! Well, d folks at Admin hate her for that too.
4. Before she came to SEC, there used to be overtime. If u wrk anytime after 4'0 clock u'll be paid I think above a 1000naira, maybe 1500 or 2k. So staff will close by 4pm and sign 6pm or 7pm at d register. Corpers and IT were living large then. In addition to 25k salary, wen u add overtime it was almost amounting to 50k or more. Wen madam came in, she reduced overtime to 195naira daily. Suffice it to say dt everyone stopped working overtime!
Staff hate her becos she has cut off all their avenues of eating govt money. Before she signs anything involving money she scrutinises it, sometimes it takes months for her to sign budget for ordinary office supply. At a point A4 paper was like gold there cos d store was empty. Yes, she's that thorough.

If anyone shud hate her it shud be me! Cos I wasn't retained after service. Before her it was almost automatic to get employed after service at SEC. Half of d managers there today did NYSC there. But she has said she won't employ for employing sake. She wants relevant courses to what is being done at SEC. Law, Accounting, Economics, IT, etc. Someone dt read history has no business being in SEC. How won't d market collapse wen we have mediocres at the helm of affairs. She said it on TV that d staff aren't competent and its true. I worked wit these pple. The only thing keeping them there is the experience they've gotten over d years.
Call Oteh arrogant I'll agree, she doesn't carry staff along, good and fine but please that Lady is one fine anti-corruption Amazon. They want to frustrate her out of office so it will return to business as usual.

The so called SEC union is not even a month old. They haven't held elections yet, they just handpicked themselves and took posts. Now they're protesting. Previous DG's refused d formation of trade union at SEC, is it not under her tenure that they've now formed it?

My prayer is dt she's recalled to continue the goodwork she's started at the SEC. Evil triumph when good people do nothing. Half the comments here on NL are skewed cos d posters have half facts. Not everything u see in Newpaper is true!

The suspended Director General of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Ms. Arunma Oteh was Wednesday given a clean slate and reinstated to her position by the Federal Government.

Her exoneration from allegations of fraud was not however hitch free as she was slammed with the charge of administrative lapses on which she was cautioned.

Oteh bounced back to her coveted position after the SEC Board engaged the Price Water Coopers Limited, a renown audit firm, which investigated the allegations against her and reported that she did not commit any fraud or criminal breaches.

In a circular signed by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Sen. Anyim Pius Anyim, SGF.2/S.9/C.13/454 dated 17/ July, 2012, her recall follows the outcome of the findings of the external auditors.

The circular reads: "Please refer to the decision of the Board of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to send you on compulsory leave in order to enable SEC's external auditors-the Price Water Coopers Limited (PWC), to examine the records of the Commission's transactions covering SEC project 50 which you supervised.

"I am to note that Government has studied the report submitted by the external auditors and you are neither indicted for fraud nor criminal breach in any form. However, some administrative lapses were reported, particularly, in cases where administrative procedures were not thoroughly observed.

"The purpose of this letter is to recall you from your leave and to caution that you must henceforth endeavour to diligently observe all extant rules and administrative procedures in the conduct of all official transactions."

^^ It isn't just Lagos - Ibadan, the main contract still is Lagos Kano. That's why it was referred to as an "Addendum"

virtuoso01: How many times will they give the contract? I thought they gave it to someone during Obasanjos regime.?

"Labaran Maku, said council approved contracts including the implementation of Addendum No. 2 (2nd segment: Lagos-Ibadan to the main contract for the railway modernisation project (Phase 1; Lagos-Kano).

The Federal Government yesterday disclosed that it had signed a $1.49 billion contract with China for the construction of the Lagos-Ibadan Standard Gauge Rail Double Track.

The rail line with Double Formation under Addendum No. 2 (2nd segment) is for the modernisation of the Lagos-Kano railway project.

It also approved other contracts covering the transport, power and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

Briefing journalists in company of his colleagues after the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting in Abuja, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Bala Mohammed, Trade and Investment, Olusegun Aganga, Transport, Idris Umar, Power, Bart Nnaji, and Urban and Housing Development, Ama Pepple, the Minister of Information, Labaran Maku, said council approved contracts including the implementation of Addendum No. 2 (2nd segment: Lagos-Ibadan to the main contract for the railway modernisation project (Phase 1; Lagos-Kano).

Messrs China Civil Engineering Construction Company Nig Ltd which clinched the job, is expected to complete the project in 36 months.
The variation of the scope of work for the contract for design and construction of Abuja Rail Mass Transit Project (Lots 1&3) from the initial work span of 60.67km to 45.245km (Lots 1A &3) upped the amount payable from $841,645,898.00 to $823,540,545.87 payable at the prevailing exchange rate inclusive of 5 per cent VAT and 5 per cent variation on prices.

“The contract is in favour of Messrs China Civil Engineering and Construction Corporation (CCECC), with a completion period of 36 months”, Maku said.

On power: Council, in line with accepted best practices in the operation and maintenance of hydropower plants, approved the supply and installation of parts for the 2 x 140MW units 411G3 Generators at Shiroro Hydroelectric Plc, in favour of Messrs AsNDRITZ Hydro GmbH, in the sum of €2,075,754.00.

This is in addition to the N13,326340.68 to be retained by Shiroro Hydroelectric Plc to cover one per cent CISS fees and two per cent Port and Handling charges, with a completion period of eight months.

Council also approved the restoration of four Plant units and balance of plant at Omotosho Power Plc in favour of China Machinery and Engineering Corporation in the sum of USD 10,092,771.15 payable at the prevailing exchange rate at the time of payment, plus N78,753,893.30 for 5 per cent VAT with a completion period of 6 months.

On investment, Aganga said Nigeria has improved in the FDI attraction index to 23rd position making it a first quarter country for FDI attractiveness.

Nigeria is ranked first in the top five host economies for FDI in Africa at $8.91 billion in 2011 in comparision to $6.09billion in 2010, followed by South Africa with $5.9 billion in 2011 and Ghana with $3.2 billion.

Nigeria accounted for over one-sixth of flows into Africa as a whole. Only Nigeria, South Africa and Ghana attracted FDI inflows above $3 billion in 2011

You can clearly see that white man is a NURBS model, rendered using Mental Ray.

You are just very bitter and desperately looking for excuses to discredit our able-bodied PROGRESSIVE party ACN, which is also responsible for many game-changing PROGRESSIVE breakthroughs - most notably the air-conditioned bridge - our very own "environmental challenge project"; and of course, the one and only O-Mpanaka.

You are just another bitter 'Creek' thug, looking to discredit our great party.

Yes sir! Shame on all you bad belle pipooooo![/quote]Oh dear! And I thought it was just cheap photoshop, I wonder how many millions it took to complete this imaging and CGI effect in Hollywood!

^ Don't count me among your "many stalkers" I'm just doing my bit calling u out n exposing you, no matter what you say or how you try to make this look, it will make no difference so u might as well save your flailing breath. You don't like it? then take out a restraining order!

Gbawe: I bet the above sounds like Spanish to you olodos?

It isn't "Spanish" but "GIBBERISH" you mor0n! What has all that got to do with you broadcasting the write up of an eediot and presenting it as fact?

Gbawe: Ogbeni, go and sit down. At least wait for a genuine cue to launch your attacks that folks can now see is obviously led by an obsession with others. It is sad that Nairalanders will now only associate your ID with a b.iatch-like character obsessed only with following others around vacuously like a conquered clown.

The image comes to mind of a pathetic creature that sees "Gbawe" and frantically clicks the topic to see how he can be noticed. What, for example, have you contributed here other than show you are obsessed with getting the attention of others?

Be quiet will you and snap out of that self delusion you've got yourself locked in for a sec. Look around yourself you old hag and see what you really are - a discredited talkative Ol' man whose day job is to run down the effort of others just cos he's paid to do so. Nothing concerns you except it has got to do with Gej's perceived error or a flaw in governance, the delight with which you jump at bad news would make even undertakers cringe. Have you no shame old man? How do you sleep at night? When do you finally get to realize that its NEVER going to be worth it? When I ask you?

channel801: Checks revealed that the trip was put in place for them to learn how to assist their husbands on the job under the guise of a “Women of Caliber” programme.

This trip is coming just as their husbands were returning from a “working” visit to South Africa.

Defending the trip at the venue of the training, the Speaker Mrs Sunmonu said "everywhere in the world, leaders get paid from public funds, and that the only thing is to ensure that money is judiciously spent"

Women of timber and calibre, what nerve!

Gbawe: Another emasculated fool now turned obsessed stalker. An article is submitted ,with relevant links, and no opinion whatsoever from the OP and you launch a rabid attack against the thread starter like a scorned and conquered biatch. Who cannot guess, with your shameless conduct here, that you have groupie and stalking 'issues'? What is wrong with you?

Can you and others not simply get a life? The way you obsessively stalk certain posters just shows the depth of your despondency and insecurity. At least wait for me to comment and then you may be justified for attacking my character. All folks can see right now is a conquered biatch with unrequited issues. Shameless fool. Abeg, stop following me around. You are sounding and acting precisely like another fool who is now the perpetual dunce of the forum.

HAA OUR DADDY HAS LOST HIS COOL AGAIN! All it takes to rile the highly exalted bigot is to point out his foolishness. The intolerant eediot and miserable sychophant can't stand any criticism but hopelessly and endlessly dishes it out like a demented beeast. With amazing ease he resorts to the foulest of languages cos he's a natural born agbero masquerading as a God forsaken social critic, the stench of the hate and bitterness in you is pungent, the level of desperation you exude is shocking and it is obvious to all that to you there's a great deal at stake cos its your bread and butter you're fighting for. Well, I do this for fun and I'm not gonna stop pulling down your shokoto when I have the opportunity - I actually find it very amusing and your reaction? Absolutely priceless! So here's a newsflash; Roll over and die if you like but I ain't gonna stop!

Where's OYB when you need him? I bet the dude would prove it to us in a flash that these are photoshopped pics.

I honestly don't know who to feel more pity for, SR, the reporter that wrote this or the desperate ol' man that pasted this. This piece is a disgrace to literacy, I can understand SR having this on their newssite but I just can't imagine a rational person posting this on a public board, gosh! Such a disgrace.

The Executive Vice Chairman, Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) Mr Eugene Juwah, says the only telecommunications service provider making profit in the country is MTN.

Juwah made this known yesterday in Abuja at the commencement of a two-day public hearing by the Senate Committee on Communications on the deteriorating services by GSM service providers.

He told the committee that based on available records, only MTN was making profit, adding that “operators’ accounts are audited and it is on this basis that we take our decisions. Service providers don’t pay revenue to the NCC based on profit, they do so based on their revenue. We are just privileged as regulators to have their accounts.”


The representative of the Federal Inland Revenue Service, Mr Kabiru Mohammed, who told the committee that the service providers were paying taxes, said he could not comment on the quantum of the profit offhand.

Speaking on health hazard of base stations, Juwah said this was not true, since a research had proven that base stations did not constitute health problems to people.
