Throut my life of reading and lovin d newspaper, this yr was d first time i will seeing buhari wife and dat was because of d death of his daughter.
D comparison was a bit unfair.

dare2think: Indeed, but how do you explain to little children that their mother is not the lady in the beautiful white dress standing next to their father on such a beautiful day.

How do you say those things without breaking their mild hearts. Its better that they are not there, it creates confusion in their little minds.

A complicated world we live in.

A complicated world indeed, hw will u explain to dem when they hear or see their fada on newspaper or tv that he is married to anoda woamn.

PoliticsRe: Obasanjo Once Beat-up Okupe For Dishonesty - Junaid Mohamed by yam: 12:12pm On Mar 17, 2013
Billyonaire: OBJ has always been a bully, Okupe's intelligence is 100 times that of OBJ. Isnt it ironic that OBJ had the muscle power coupled with drunkenness of power to bully Okupe then, now the pendulum has turned and OBJ is resting in his farm house while Okupe works with the Presidency and have the capacity to pounce OBJ now but will not do so, cos he is actually mentally powerful than OBJ. OBJ has done enough for Nigeria and at 75yrs he should not be dragged into politics anymore, he should be researching on what God is, What death is, how his Will should be structured and how he intends to die. He is a great man, a great ex-President, he single-handed sent the military to the barracks for ever but he has many flaws one of which is bullying. He nearly finished Mike Adenuga and Bola Tinubu! So good and so bad a man, he is not perfect, I love him just the way he is.

Christianity EtcRe: Driver Preaching On The Steering by yam: 12:52pm On Jan 27, 2013
FXKing2012: Truth of the matter is the OP is possessed for the following reasons:
1)She was so uncomfotable as the preaching started.
2) She started shouting at the man because the demon in her could not stand the preaching.
3) The demon in her wanted to use her to deter others from hearing the Word.

The cab driver is a true MOG for the following reasons:
1) He was ready for God's work anywhere and anytime and in the presence of anybody.
2) When the devil tried using the OP to stop him from preaching, the Spirit in him fought back by preaching even louder.
3) The devil wanted to use the accident to disrupt the preaching because the devil knew the man was preaching the truth capable of saving souls.

@OP, what you are unaware of is that probably you were supposed to die that day but the strong MOG (cab driver) saved you because you entered his cab. The devil attempted to take your life that morning but the presence of the man actually saved you.

Repent of your sins OP, ask for forgiveness, give your life to Christ and preach the Word to others.

Stay blessed!
u are very wrong.her mind was nt very settle before she enter the cab hence her action.she was just tensed wit situation around her.

If it was a fellow passenger that preached she wont do that.y cant the driver just share a Tract .

[quote author=sucrecandy]So, it was the early hours of a monday morning, the usual boisterous noise of people rushing to work, horns blaring here and there, i had woken up a little bit late than usual, in the mad rush, [/b]i ruled out the possibility of taking the BRT bus to save time, [b]i was still shock-stranded at abule egba bus stop thinking of how to get to the lagos island and arrive in the office not later than 8:15 fully aware that any minute i dangle after that would send a cold query flying into my email from my mean, insatiable boss.

I was still making my mental journey when this private taxi cab stopped infront of me,

First and foremost, u are a good writer.
1.the bold statement above is the main reason why u are acted that way.Lagos makes a good person seems bad.
2.if it is nt because of bold statement above u probably must ve beign composed like some of the passengers in the cab
3.you probably did nt pray before u left the house dat day.next time opportunity like dat, i use it for prayers in my mind and tots(i will probably be preparing to get to the office before ur oga.)

Lastly,Preaching is a very powerful weapon, if he was talkin abt a futbool match or political incident, u probably must ve joined in or remain composed regardless to bold statement above

shagaman: This is part of the reason the country keeps going backwards,must you preach in a bus or cab,This not happen abroad,preaching in the bus,in the office,remember i worked in a company in Naija then,the MD made it mandatory for all staffs for prayers every monday,yet the idiot embezzled over 140 million to send most of us out of job then,the ministries are filled so many crooks disguising as men who are religious...Religion is the opium of the people...

take dat: Thank you! I asked those questions to bring us to a conclusion which is, the rapid spread of the Islamists and the need to contain them. Ap[b]art from other sinister interests at stake for these world powers, there is also the "terrorist threat" that needs to be contain and since the regional powers have not been able to find an African solution to the terrorist threats and the spread of radical jihadists, no one should fault the intervention of the West[/b].

Foreign AffairsRe: The Facts And Fallacies Of The War In Mali by yam: 7:42pm On Jan 26, 2013
kalokalo: The Hypocrisy of the West riles my stomach. They armed, trained and financed racist salafists that overran Libya, calling them pro-democracy activists only to start to claim to fight them when they killed the US ambassador. Benghazi has now been turned to a terror fiefdom exporting terror to Mali, Algeria, Tunisia, Northern Nigeria and Syria. This is the very Benghazi that the Western Press told us was the epicenter of the "pro-democracy" yearnings in Libya. They are currently backing Al-Qaeda terrorists tearing Syria apart while supposedly fighting them in Afghanistan, Iraq and now Mali. The utter hypocrisy!! And their so called "free press" consistently omits these critical information from the folks who believe the trash they report as news.

Who doesn't know that Western intervention in sovereign states is dictated by corporate and geo-political resource interests? All their huffing and puffing of democracy and freedom are all hogwash. Here we have France fighting to protect a military dictatorship in Mali while they claimed they bombed Libya to protect the people from another dictator. Who doesn't know that the previous elected government in Mali was overthrown in a coup with support from France so as to get a pliant regime that will allow uranium exploitation in the country?


I pity the simpletons who are sent to their graves to die fighting terrorists that were created, armed, trained and financed by western intelligence agencies in their geo-political chess games. Read the reports of corporate funded think tanks like CFR, Chatham House and you would see reports of the very things happening before our eyes years in advance.
But the fact is dese nobody can go to war without having any interest.
i also think the case of mali and libya is very different.
Foreign AffairsRe: The Facts And Fallacies Of The War In Mali by yam: 7:24pm On Jan 26, 2013
Negro_Ntns: on the scale of population and resource, when you compare the two conutries our military have indeed failed. our military are operating in a zone under emergency declaration and yet have failed to contain cross-border attacks from one state to the other. the failure is highlighted by the event in which a military command zone that houses many generals was attacked.

the fact that boko has remained in north and not crossed southward is by their own choice and has nothing to do with military efectiveness in containing their spread and blocking a southbound assault. if boko chooses to head south we cannot rely on our military to give us safety and security, we must depend on our various regional vigilantes to provide security.......in fact, so far, the fear of a bloody encounter with the vigilantes has been a more successful deterrent than is the fear of the military.


u correct.
Foreign AffairsRe: The Facts And Fallacies Of The War In Mali by yam: 7:15pm On Jan 26, 2013
take dat: The BH experience in Nigeria cannot be compared to the Islamist insurgency in Mali because the Malian military is almost completely overwhelmed that the government in Bamako had to plead for foreign intervention. However much we may detest neo-colonialism or foreign militarism in Africa, f[b]or as long as we find it difficult to manage our affairs successfully, these foreign countries with interests in Africa will continue interfering.[/b]
The notion that the intervention in Mali is due to mineral rights or neocolonialism ignores the realities on ground there[/b]

The difference between Mali and Nigeria is political stability and our military might in containing the insurgents.
u said my mind again

Is france just realising there is mineral resources in mali?

Foreign AffairsRe: The Facts And Fallacies Of The War In Mali by yam: 5:57pm On Jan 26, 2013
take dat: Interesting Read! Though it is difficult to disprove allegations of imperialist motivations in French foreign policy and the use of its military base in Africa to strengthen its role in the inter-imperialist competition and to serve the interest of its monopoly groups plundering our resources but Hollande seems to have been reluctant to intervene in the crisis initially but chose to assist the Malian military with financial and logistic supports. The question is, with the imminent collapse of the Malian military to the Islamists, should France then reject the intervention by invitation offer extended to it by the Malian government to help intervene? should France abstain from intervening in a country where its economic interests is at stake?

The war in Mali is primarily a direct consequence of state failure due to factors caused by Malians themselves. Economic interest, Western meddling and religion are secondary.
just my mind

I think the reason why u think is ok is that u are looking at the distance

30hrs to get to Kano for 1,900 is annoying(minus stations they will likely stop at)
the lesser the distance the higher the price,the farther the distance the lower the price.

FG has for many yrs ignore this basic neccessitty,all the money that has beign stolen in yrs back to bring revive these sectors cannot be acounted for.Why should the masses pay up to that for something that is meant to be free.
