We are on total lock down here in Ado Ekiti. No movement at all.

Which is why I love my state governor, Ayodele Fayoose. He pays compensation before demolition. Yet some people will still call him names.

Our brothers from the East do not believe in refund of money once it enters their hand or account. They will rather die than give up any amount. Why it is so, I do not know. Were Metuh to be a Yoruba man he would have refunded this money long ago and let trouble go its way.

Has he refunded the money? Until he does, he does not enjoy my sympathy.

The true Christian church is never afraid of persecution. It's the nominal Christians who are. Persecution makes the church grow, leads to wider spread of the gospel. Read the Acts of Apostles and you will see that but for persecution, Christianity would not have reached us in Africa. So real Christians will not pray against persecution but will ask for grace to go through it without denying the faith.

Am I saying the church in Kaduna is being persecuted? No. Just to say that even if it comes to that, the church will not only survive, it will grow stronger.

I am a Christian, a preacher of the gospel and do not see what is wrong with this. I own and run my own school in Ekiti State. Before the beginning of this term, I had discovered this term will be two weeks short if 2nd term must end with Easter. For me a standard school term should run for a minimum of 13 weeks and a maximum of 14. So I called a meeting of my parents and informed them that the term will extend beyond Easter. The attached is a copy of the Academic calendar that was proposed for the term. I think later in the term, the State Ministry of Education also realized this shortfall and has since ordered all schools to remain open until after Easter. There is no hidden agenda in what Kaduna State Government did. Easter has no fixed date unlike Christmas. Sometimes, Easter comes early (this year is an example) while at other times it comes late (sometimes as late as April ending). No Act of Parliament says second term must end with Easter.

As for Christians who are crying foul, I think there is a misconception that observing a particular holiday makes us more religious. Easter is not about holiday. It is about the cross of Christ. What has that cross done in your life. If you are not born again, spending a month to celebrate Easter will not help you. Besides, what about civil servants who year in year out return to work the nect day after Easter Monday. Why have they not shouted religions marginalization all these years?

Finally, I think those who will hate this development most are school proprietors who would have been calculating the money they will save on running school buses, running hostels , staff salaries (for those who do not pay during holidays) etc. Most of these proprietors are Christians and pastors too.

Let us have 13 weeks 2nd term, Easter or no Easter, I rest my case.

adeaks:
When did it become a crime for someone to bury charm in front of his church. This is about individual religious beliefs. If you believe the pastor is occultic, then avoid his church while warning others to do likewise.

Now that he has been arrested, what crime will he be charged for and under which law?

ILLEGALLY CONVERTING THE FRONT OF HIS CHURCH, WHICH HAPPENS TO BE A PUBLIC PLACE TO A BURIAL GROUND!!!

Xposer:
This fatal accident happened today along Adekunle Fajuyi street, GRA, Ikeja, Lagos, involving a family which embarked on an early morning journey in their Toyota Land Cruiser jeep. According to sources, the SUV vehicle veered off the road and rammed into a perimeter fence of an estate -destroying two electric pole in the process. Hopefully no one died in the crash....

It is grammatically wrong to describe an accident as fatal if no one died in it. The correct word is 'ghastly'. Op and others, please take note.

Babaji111:
The man is gradually turning into something else. Let him concentrate on his job as there are a lot of challenges to be addressed for the good people of Ekiti state.

Has it ever occurred to you that this could be an inter-denomiational service? It does not appear to me as pictures from different services. I do know that on such occasions, the governor is often given the microphone to say something. And a humble governor will ask for more prayers from the people. Fayoose has never hidden the fact that he became governor second time by the grace of God. he has always asked that citizens of the state pray for him and we in Ekiti State have not stopped praying. After all isn't that what the Bible enjoins believers to do?

kITATITA:
I like the female officer in white uniform. She no send anybody. She seems to be wondering what she's doing there; in the midst of all the pretensions.

Point of correction. She's not an officer. She is a church official. That.s the way they dress in their church.

VIPERVENOM:
he has done this he has done dat. It's only in ekiti we hear about so called "good governance" but no evidence.......OK......kontunu.......nothing concern me wit una sef

What other evidence do you need? I said he has constructed the road in my area, I mentioned the place and he has approved a public primary school for the community. Have you been there to check and found my claims false? I think you are suffering from FAYOOSEPHOBIA.

VIPERVENOM:
still looking for one single meaninful thing fayose has done for ekiti

https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/x/young-man-reading-newspaper-25158152.jpg

You are probably looking from outside Ekiti State. If you care to travel down to Ekiti State you will see. I live in Ado Ekiti precisely in Onala Community, Off Afao Road, Ado Ekiti. While Fayemi was governor for four years, the community benefited nothing. There was no motorable road, no government primary or secondary school, no government health centre, no public water supply, not even a bore hole etc. Then Fayose was inaugurated in October last year. Now the community can boast of a world class road linking it with Iworoko road via Car wash bus stop. In addition a public primary school has been approved for the community, all in the space of 12 months. This is waht I call good governance. What Fayose has done in Onala, he has done in several communities around the state. Unfortunately most of his critics live outside Ekiti State. God will surely forgive them. And before you think I am a jobless bootlicker, I advise you check my previous posts to know who I am. While Fayose is not God, the truth is that any attempt to remove him through the back door will lead to unimaginable crisis comparable to the 1965 crisis in the old Western Region which ultimately consumed the first republic. APC should learn from history and allow peace resign. They should go enjoy their victory and not insist on having all states under their control.

Thanks Balogun. Please keep my items. I have two more items on the way.

Khd95:
Ok,

now what do uu intend to do wit it

Learn from it. Nigeria can become great if we return to the land and stop depending on oil.

Jolllyjoy:
And how is this others business



Goodness!!what exactly is your aim of putting this up in this first place self

To encourage those of you wasting your time in the cities searching for the ever elusive jobs to return to your villages to till the land. Our economic revival depends largely on agriculture. Hope you now understand why I put this here. That single bunch can provide a healthy breakfast for a family of 4 for 10 solid days!. Now this comes from the little space at the back of my house. can you imagine how much more can be realised from cultivating an acre or hectare of land? Use your brain, my dear.

I harvested this Plantain bunch from the back of my house yesterday. It has exactly 40 big fingers on it. It's about the 15th that I've harvested this year. With things like this, I wonder why Nigeria has to import food. Our land is fertile and can feed us and provide forex via export if only we can farm it. What do you think?

artisticallyart:
Ah!!!!! Xtfield......wetin happen? You be dey give accommodation that year abi, promo/bonaza period don finish.......chai!!!!!!....... In avicky's voice oga di nma.

We've done that for two years now. The area has opened up and any teacher joining us now has great opportunity of making big extra money besides the salary. We believe such teachers should be able to take care of their accommodation.

Redomi:
Do you give accommodation?

No. You rent your own place. Accommodation can be easily secured a few meters away from the school. A room costs like N18k p.a. Lots of opportunity to make extra money through private home lessons for pupils and students.

The events that have taken place in Kogi state gives credence to the rot and capriciousness that characterizes the Nigerian political space! In the words of the great Chinua Achebe, there was indeed a country!

Permit me again, to express my condolence to the Audu family, even though I give him and owe him no eulogies for the begger status he brought Kogi citizens into while he governed. His most notable acheivement for the much I remember is owning a house next to that of Michael Jordan. Haven said that, I find it preproterous that the APC in Kogi state intends installing a younger Audu to be the candidate. This simply shows the following:

1. The reason for a deputy governor or vice president, is mainly to have someone capable of governing affairs of a state or nation in the absence of the principal. The fact that Faleke is not seen fit to take over that mantle, shows that he was only taken by Audu to be his stooge while the looting continues. Why take someone as a deputy governor that you have no confidence in?

2. The APC in Kogi state has no constitutional right to install another replacement. According to law, they are either to conduct another primary or let Faleke be the front runnter. I understand the constitution in this matter is very murky and there is nothing spelt out in the 1999 constitution to guide the actions of the APC. Nevertheless, the people of Kogi must resist the younger Audu and the hegemony that is about to be imposed on them.

3. The Nigerian police should look into the accusation of rape by the Audu's and recover the N11 billion alleged to have been looted by the old Audu. We either have laws or we don't have a country. PMB must lend his voice to this mess.

4. I hope the 17 year old girl (wife) that has been taken advantage of act as a good step mother to the 43 year old Audu and advice him to sheet his swords and step down. Regardless, except the Kogi people are foolish - they must resist such blatant arrogance and hegemonic tendencies by the Audus, and make their state great again!

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria

I agree with you that Faleke should be allowed to step in but it will be suicidal for APC. They will most likely lose the supplementary election as the deciding votes will come from Igalaland. In politics, morality is often sacrificed for expediency. This happens not only in Nigeria. PDP lost the 2015 Presidential election because they did not learn this early enough. If PDP had sacrificed Jonathan for a Northern candidate, they would have defeated APC, forget all those talk about corruption and the like. So the options for APC are simple. Present Faleke and lose or sacrifice Faleke and pick the younger Audu so they can win sympathy vote to drive a final knell into the coffin of PDP in Kogi State.

So what do we learn from all these? I think we should begin to beam our searchlights on the process of selecting a running mate. As it is now, not much attention is given to this all important office. No one thinks about what will happen if the principal (governor) is incapacitated thus paving way for the deputy to become the governor. Maybe the electoral act should be ammended so whoever comes second in the primary automatically becomes the running mate. As it is now, the deputy was not subjected to popularity test within the party, so how can he command the respect of other party members when he was Audu's candidate. I don't know if I've made any sense at all but these are my views. thank you

MTN just awarded me N6000 (2000 monthly for 3 months)

I do not agree with your conclusion that INEC declared the results inconclusive to prevent his ruinning mate from taking over. Audu's death was not made public until much later so even if INEC knew, it is not within the terms of reference for INEC to announce his death or stop the collation of results because of a 'rumoured' death of a contestant. I think it will be best if we stop reading mischievous meanings to every action.

This is to confirm receipt of my batch of items which include:
1. 3 digital cameras
2. 1 mini-DV Camcorder
3. 1 laptop motherboard.
Items were sent to me in Ekiti through a driver. Thanks so much, balogunsam.

balogunsam:
Sorry sir. I got married on Saturday so I've been quite busy.

Haba! You got married without inviting me? Not fair at all. Congratulations and thisis wishing you a happy married life.

Well done and more crease to your elbows.

Received 3 camcorders: 2 Sony and 1 JVC as well as a motherboard through a driver sent by Balogunsam yesterday 20/10/15. See pix of camcorders below. Board has been given to my engineer before pix were taken. I just enjoy doing business with this man. God bless you blogunsam.

"Green Horn" Shipper indeed. I bet the green horn shipper has returned the items to him which is why he is now flying the same items to Nigeria. The truth the way I see it is this, Lagtech started well by helping to pick items from craigslist and buying for people on ebay. Those orders were placed at different times and at no time did he have a large sum of money with him. When he urged us to use sea shipping, the money came in hundreds of dollars and it became a source of temptation to him. Unfortunately, he fell by using the money to meet his own presaging needs while lying to us that he had shipped the items. He must have reckoned that he would be able to raise fresh funds to eventually send those items. The thought did not materialize and so we are where we are today. Those itrems are in Lagtech's house gathering dust.
@ Dominique
Please ask Lagtech what happened to the items he claimed to have shipped in JULY 2014. This is the crux of the matter.

ceasare:
i got a box of clothing yesterday,sat 3rd Oct kind of air mail box even though it was suppose to be sea shipped since July last year.its appreciated.
my outstanding items remains:
#15,000
a box of clothes already with chinosxl(pls sort it out with him let me hv my stuff on time )
4 laptops(these are the koko not the clothing lagtech sent)

maybe God help all of us lagtech inclusive!

This further confirms my assertion that Lagtech did not ship anything by sea in July 2014. He merely collected shipping fees running into thousands of dollars and converted same to personal use. I first raised this issue when he sent me a laptop (supposedly shipped by sea) by air several months after he claimed to have shipped it by sea! Yet this man will want people to believe that he is not a scammer. My items are heavy books and trophies plus 5 laptops. The only way to get them here (exceptg for the laptops) is by sea.
