| Posted By: Omaba Posted On: Apr 10, 2012 Views: 845 | Oke osisi ngbologwu orji Nwanne okwu, u mean say even the computer system using by Christians & Muslims was a product of infidels & none believers? Unbelievers to Christian doctrine means a sinner who cannot smell the kingdom of God, the paradise (ala eze) ahahahah. Infidel to Muslim means a sinner too who has no virgin girl in heaven, who supposed to be killed if he or she resist not to become a Muslim. My question, why not rejecting the products of the sinners & infidels let them die with their products & parish in the hell? Clergy men & Sheik will used the products of sinners to carry out there religious functions & turned around & tell their followers that those intellectuals who initiated those equipments they are using are living in sin therefore have no place in the kingdom of God if they don't repent. Oboy something is wrong somewhere. I have a strong believe that there are many things this people are not telling us, although am a Catholic but i have to review some certain things. |

How does your forefathers pray to God before Usman Danfodio invaded them with the teaching of foreign religion Islam? What has the Islam contributed to man kind? electrical energy, car, train, air craft, ultramodern ships, GPS, computer, named but few, none of this things was discovered by an Islamic man. You should be ashamed of yourself to have abandoned your ancestral religion for Islam which does not have anything good to show. Please my people which Arab country has something new to change the face of the world for good if not terrorizing & bombing of innocent people? Scientists who made enough research & came up with meaningful discovery to easy things for mankind none of them believed in Jesus or Muhamed, Islam called them infidels & christian called them none believers, but Christians & Muslims who called them none believers & infidels are the highest patronizer of their products. Can someone ask that pastor or Iman making noise using horn speakers discovered & produced by none believer or infidel, that highest cell phone he is using is it a miracle? All this things was discovered by men who really wants to impart positively to mankind. Many of them don't read Koran or Bible before they will embarked or heavy research to change human life for good. Common men, how can a man in the name of Pastor or Imam will be preaching against somebody using his product as a tool of brainwashing people, who is fooling who? In terms of moral Christianity & Islam religion has failed woefully, look at how women are being treated in Arab countries, Muslims marry 4 wife's, if you wants to marry the 5 one you discard the oldest one, what a slave in a high heaven to women? women don't have their say no matter what. After taking an oath with Koran to uphold truth & justice in a public office that is when all sort of criminal activities will start. In the east every warehouse has turned in to church, many are going to the church half-naked, women don't no the cloths meant for them , many pastors are busy sleeping with them one after the other. The worst thing to do is to give a public office holder Bible to swear, is just an automatic key of stealing & killing innocent people any how. A woman will swear on the alter of the church with bible to be sincere to her husband,it serves as a license to be sleeping around & nothing happens. it baffles me when you get to the church you will see all those criminal politicians, when pastor started singing (Zogbuo ekwensu na ukwu) killed the satan with your foot, i cried when i saw all those criminal governors,reps, senates, etc jumping up & down matching on the ground to kill the satan. My people were do you see a satan if not that criminals seating in your front? An average brainwashed Nigerians believed that satan is the cause of epileptic power supply in Nigeria, is satan caused youths unemployment, satan no good road, satan no pipe burn water. The problem of Africa is that we abandoned our God & embrace foreign God then our God abandoned us. Ndigbo is time we go back to retrace our foot step, they way our forefathers did it, our forefathers live longer than we do today because they fear & respect ndi ichie to up hold justice & fairness. |

It was gathered that after the face-off with the accused, Hauwa allegedly packed her belongings and relocated to her parents’ residence, but Bege was said to have sneaked into the in-laws’ house when the ill-fated housewife was fast asleep in the night and allegedly slashed her throat. It was further gathered that before Bege could bolt away from the scene, some villagers got hold of him and handed him over to the village head, one Alhaji Usman, who formally complained to the police about the unfortunate incident. The accuse was, however, arraigned before the Chief Magistrate Court III, Minna, the Niger State capital, for culpable homicide on Monday, contrary to section 221 of penal code law. The presiding Chief Magistrate, Hajiya Bilkis Gambo Yusuf, read the charges to the accused and he pleaded guilty to the offence, saying, “I cut her with a knife.” Also, the police prosecutor, Esther Philip, prayed the court to remand the accused in the prison custody prior to the outcome of the advice of the state’s Director of Public Prosecution (DPP), after which the case would be assigned to the court that had jurisdiction to hear the case. The presiding magistrate, in her response, ordered that the accused be remanded in prison custody and adjourned the case to July 26, just as the court also awaits the DPP’s advice. |
| Posted By: Kehinde Oluyemi Posted On: Apr 10, 2012 Views: 715 | The Proper Understanding of Jesus's Life- By Marwa I want to start out by explaining that Muslims' belief must be grounded in the two essential sources of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Therefore, I cannot, for example, decide to believe something not included in the teachings of the Qur'an and our beloved Prophet because someone, no matter how knowledgeable, told me to do so. One of the beauties of Islam is that people are continually exhorted to search for the truth and ponder upon the many questions of existence in order to strengthen their faith. I tell you this because my answer regarding the story of Jesus is founded solely on the Qur'an and the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad, so I encourage you to think about the story and go read the Qur'an for yourself, in order to put your doubts to rest. In Islam, Jesus (`Isa in Arabic) is considered one of the greatest prophets sent byGod to mankind. In the Qur'an, Jesus is referred to as `Isa ibn Maryam, or Jesus son of Mary. The story of Mary and Jesus is best described in the Qur'an primarily in the surahs of Aal `Imran and Maryam. Mary, the mother of Jesus, is described in the Qur'an as being special. She is born into the pious household of Aal `Imran, and her childhood is marked by a unique piety that everyone around her could sense. The uniqueness of Mary was spelled out to her by the angels: *{Behold! The angels said: "O Mary! Allah hath chosen thee and purified thee — chosen thee above the women of all nations. O Mary! Worship thy Lord devoutly: Prostrate thyself, and bow down (in prayer) with those who bow down."}* (Aal `Imran 3:42-43) The Prophet Muhammad had also related in a hadith reported by Al- Bukhari that Mary was one of the best of the women Allah had created. The Birth of Jesus In relating the story of Jesus, the Qur'an describes how Mary, the mother of Jesus, was approached by an angel from God, bringing her tidings she had never imagined: that she would give birth to a son, a Messiah, who would be of the righteous and would be a prophet of God, calling the Children of Israel (the Israelites) to the straight path of God. *{(And remember) when the angels said: O Mary! Lo! Allah giveth thee glad tidings of a word from Him, whose name is the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, illustrious in the world and the Hereafter, and one of those brought near (unto Allah). He will speak unto mankind in his cradle and in his manhood, and he is of the righteous.}* (Aal `Imran 3:45-46) Naturally, for the chaste Mary, this news was both strange and seemingly impossible. *{She said: My Lord! How can I have a child when no mortal hath touched me? He said: So (it will be). Allah createth what He will. If He decreeth a thing, He saith unto it only: Be! and it is. And He will teach him the Scripture and wisdom, and the Torah and the Gospel.}* (Aal `Imran 3:47-48) The very nature of Jesus's birth is so special that God compares the uniqueness of his creation to that of the first man and prophet, Adam. *{Lo! The likeness of Jesus with Allah is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, then He said unto him: Be! and he is.}* (Aal `Imran 3:59) There is never any doubt in the Qur'an about Mary's chastity and the purity of the birth of Jesus. It is sad to hear you say that you were taught "that his birth was the result of a very human out-of-wedlock event." This teaching is in direct contradiction to the Qur'an itself, and was a malicious rumor that some people from the tribe of the Children of Israel in Mary's time tried to attack her with. However, we are told in the Qur'an of a miracle that Jesus performed when he was a baby. When Mary carried the baby Jesus to her people, they questioned her; and as a baby in her arms, Jesus gave them the answer. The Qur'an describes this scene in detail: *{He said: "I am indeed a servant of Allah: He hath given me revelation and made me a prophet; And He hath made me blessed wheresoever I be, and hath enjoined on me Prayer and Charity as long as I live; (He) hath made me kind to my mother, and not overbearing or miserable; So peace is on me the day I was born, the day that I die, and the day that I shall be raised up to life (again)!"}* (Maryam 19:26-33) And so the baby Jesus defended his mother from any accusations of adultery, and in a nutshell, explained who he was and why he was sent by God. Jesus and His Miracles Jesus was sent to the Children of Israel in order to confirm the teachings of his predecessor, the Prophet Moses. Jesus's birth was a miracle, and, like all prophets of God, he was granted several miracles. He approached his people, telling them — *{Lo! I come unto you with a sign from your Lord. Lo! I fashion for you out of clay the likeness of a bird, and I breathe into it and it is a bird, by Allah's leave. I heal him who was born blind, and the leper, and I raise the dead, by Allah's leave. And I announce unto you what ye eat and what ye store up in your houses. Lo! herein verily is a portent for you, if ye are to be believers. And (I come) confirming that which was before me of the Torah, and to make lawful some of that which was forbidden unto you. I come unto you with a sign from your Lord, so keep your duty to Allah and obey me. Lo! Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path.}* (Aal `Imran 3:49-51) In another incident, after which an entire surah of the Qur'an is named, the disciples of Jesus asked him for another miracle. *{Behold! the disciples, said: "O Jesus the son of Mary! can thy Lord send down to us a table set (with viands) from heaven?" Jesus said: "Fear Allah, if ye have faith." They said: "We only wish to eat thereof and satisfy our hearts, and to know that thou hast indeed told us the truth; and that we ourselves may be witnesses to the miracle." Jesus the son of Mary said: "O Allah our Lord! Send us from heaven a table set (with viands), that there may be for us — for the first and the last of us — a solemn festival and a sign from Thee; and provide for our sustenance, for Thou art the best Sustainer (of our needs)."}* (Al-Ma'idah 5:112-114) God sent them the table they had asked for, but not without a warning. *{Allah said: "I will send it down unto you: But if any of you after that resisteth faith, I will punish him with a penalty such as I have not inflicted on any one among all the peoples."}* (Al-Ma'idah 5:115) The End of the Story? The story of Jesus never really ends in the Qur'an, as we are told that Jesus was not killed, but that rather, God raised His beloved prophet up to Him. *{Behold! Allah said: "O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme; I will make those who follow thee superior to those who reject faith, to the Day of Resurrection: Then shall ye all return unto Me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein ye dispute.}* (Aal `Imran 3:53) The Qur'an also points out that Jesus was neither killed nor crucified. Speaking of the Children of Israel, Allah faults their accusations against Mary as well as their claim that they killed Jesus. *{That they rejected Faith; that they uttered against Mary a grave false charge; And because of their saying: We slew the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, Allah's messenger — they slew him not nor crucified him, but it appeared so unto them; and lo! Those who disagree concerning it are in doubt thereof; they have no knowledge thereof save pursuit of a conjecture; they slew him not for certain. Nay, Allah raised him up unto Himself; and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.}* (An-Nisaa' 4:156-158) The Qur'an confirms that Jesus was raised up by God, and the Prophet Muhammad reassured us that Jesus will be sent down to earth once again before the Day of Judgment in order to re-establish justice and the proper worship of the one Creator. In a hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah, the Prophet Muhammad said, "By the One in Whose hand is my soul, definitely the son of Maryam will soon descend among you as a just judge, and he will break the cross, kill the pig, and abolish the jizyah (tribute), and wealth will be so abundant that no one will accept it, until a single prostration will be better than the world and everything in it" (Al-Bukhari). |

How can people who are schooling under trees become contented? How can people hibernate under water creeks sleep with all kind of mosquitoes claimed to be contented if not alcohol? Anyway what do you expected of a man who loaded himself with ethanol to say under alcoholic influence? If those who discovered oil in the east are contented, then how will sapele water no what is oil well? Shameless people. |
| Posted By: mazi Posted On: Apr 10, 2012 Views: 693 | hopeless niger delta ppl should read this Where Is Our Money •Posted by News Updates on April 2, 2012 at 7:44am •View Blog Written by Tobs Agbaegbu Sunday, 01 April 2012 Three South Eastern States-Imo, Abia and Ebonyi say money due to them from Oil wells in their territory’s locked up in a secret account and want the federal government to speak out on it A letter written to President Goodluck Jonathan by an oil exploration specialist may have unwittingly gingered indigenes and governors of the South-East states of Imo, Abia and Ebonyi to ask more questions about revenue accruing from 95 oil wells newly returned to old Imo State. Johnny Maduafokwa, the specialist, alleged in a letter to President Jonathan, dated 16th September, 2010, that about eight trillion Naira from the oil wells, which ought to have been shared among the three states and himself, was being kept in a secret escrow account. He asked the federal government to give full account of the money. Since the controversial letter was made public, a cross section of the people and organisations from the three states have been reacting in support of the demand. Many who spoke to Newswatch expressed surprise that the present governors of the states, who are Rochas Okorocha, of Imo, Theodore Orji, Abia, and Martin Elechi, Ebonyi have not taken any concrete action to retrieve their people’s money. The general question coming from the people of the three states to President Jonathan now is: Where is our oil money? Maduafokwa, a senior partner in Macfredricks and O’neal Energy Limited, based in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, repeated his assertion and demand in a reminder letter he sent to the President last month. He also went a step further to even raise issues about the safety of the money.” I want the Federal Government to tell Nigerians what has happened to about eight trillion Naira which has accrued on 95 oil wells recovered from Rivers State, for the states in old Imo State. If the money which they claim is in an escrow account is still intact, let the government make official disclosure on the status of the account now,” he said in an interview with Newswatch In the letter which he titled: “Imo, Abia, Ebonyi Oil Matter: Status of the Escrow Account In Respect of 95 Oil Wells”, Maduafokwa gave details of how he was hired by Orji Uzor Kalu and Achike Udenwa, former governors of Abia and Imo states, respectively, to lead their states in a campaign that resulted in the return of the oil wells during the administration of President Olusegun Obasanjo. Maduafokwa recalled that prior to the year 2000, about 95 oil wells located between old Imo and Rivers states were erroneously classified as “disputed” or “undecided” by the federal government. He explained that the action of the federal government then, was sequel to the report of the then Justice Mamman Nasir Commission of 1976, on the delineation of state boundaries. On account of the report of the Nasir Commission, he said, “the Federal Government suspended (even till date), the payment of revenues accruing or accruable from the affected oil wells to any of the then Imo and Rivers states.” Maduafokwa further informed President Jonathan that on 11th October, 2000, former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, acting in his capacity as chairman, National Boundary Commission, set up a Special Presidential Committee on Verification of Oil Wells. He said the committee which had Hamman Tukur, then chairman of RMAFC as chairman recommended the return of the affected oil wells to the old Imo State, now made up of Imo, Abia and Ebonyi States. Particulars of the oil wells which he provided in the letter to President Jonathan, of which shows that 11 are now in the present Imo State while 82 is presently in Abia State. None is located in the present Ebonyi state. In conclusion, Maduafokwa prayed the president, to use his exalted office to ensure justice on the matter, by directing relevant agencies of the government to carry out a number of actions. He wants full disclosure of the status of the escrow account for the 95 oil wells, as well as the amount of the “locked in” revenue since 1976 and the actual revenue due and payable to each of the three affected states. The demand also included information on interest accruing or accruable to the “locked in “sum since 1976 and a request to have a parley on the matter, with the governors of the three South-East states. Eight trillion Naira now outstanding represents the conservative estimate of amount which is expected to be in the escrow account presently. Maduafokwa had contracted to a bank, the duty of working out the amount accruable in the account, pointing out that final reconciliation of figures would be arrived at, if meetings with relevant agencies of government are held on the subject. He also called for a timely intervention into the matter by the president. He explained that a quick intervention now would help in resolving a court matter which he said he instituted against the South-East states at a time they denied the existence of a contract between him and the states on the subject. The matter in which he is asking to be paid 1/3 of money due to the states from the oil money, is still pending at the Supreme Court. Similar efforts were made by the immediate past governors of Imo and Abia states to convince the federal government to disclose the amount of money in the escrow account. Before he left office last year, Ikedi Ohakim, former governor of Imo State, personally signed and sent a letter of demand for information on the account, to President Jonathan in 2009. The letter was later copied to the Ministry of Petroleum Resources and the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission. . Kalu, at a time, made similar demand on the issue from the federal government during his tenure as governor of Abia but nothing concrete came out of the efforts. Since the contents of Madusfokwa’s letter was made public, reactions from the South-East have been widespread. A group of South-East professionals said in a press statement two weeks ago that they were shocked to hear of the existence of such huge sum of money in favour of the three state at a time they were neck deep in debt. League of South-East Professionals, as the group is called, said in statement signed by the President, Chima Nwachukwu, a lawyer, that they would soon embark on a campaign to compel the Federal Government to disclose the exact amount that had accrued from the wells since 1976. Newswatch learnt that the present governors of the three states are also strategising on an ideal approach to convince Jonathan to release the money in the escrow account. The governors recently reviewed the situation and agreed on three strategies. First, to put their houses in order through an out of court settlement with Maduafokwa. Secondly, to table the matter for public debate through their representatives at the National Assembly and finally, to seek for legal redress, if the first two options failed. Newswatch learnt also that representatives of the three states in the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission, RMAFC, also mooted the idea of tabling it for discussion formally, but later agreed to wait for presidential directive on the matter. In agreeing to adopt a wait and see attitude, the representatives of the three states in RMAFC, who are Casmir Anyanwu, for Imo, Okeagu Ogada for Ebonyi and Chris Adighije for Abia, are said to be optimistic that President Jonathan would soon table the matter formally for discussion. Elias Mbam, RMFAC chairman was reported to have justified the directive on the need to give full effect to relevant sections of the Nigerian constitution. Mbam was said to have argued that the payment was a constitutional matter. “If you have mineral resources in your state and it is developed and it generates revenue into the federation account, you are entitled to 13 percent of what is paid into the federation account,” he said. everytime, niger delta, niger delta, every time oil oil oil. as if is only them that have oil |

| Posted By: IHEBOM CHIDI.E Posted On: Apr 10, 2012 Views: 595 | DON'T BLAME INSECURITY ON FG ALONE Fellow Nigerians,to me it will be wrong for Nigerians to blame the federal government over its alleged inability to resolve the current insecurity problem in the country.To me if the problem of insecurity must be addressed,every Nigerian must be involved.It was wrong for we Nigerians to watch while things go bad without doing anything to remedy the situation as President Goodluck Jonathan cannot solve current insecurity challenges in the country alone.Nigerians should not leave security to the government alone but individuals in the society,in our small communities,we should also be actively involved in the security issue.We should not relent in praying for the betterment of our country and also pray more for peace and stability in our country.Nigerians should love one another,be their brother's keepers as it is provided in the holy bible and other books of faith and forget what had happened in the past.There is crisis everywhere in the world but let us pray,be our brothers keepers,be vigilant against any individuals or groups that would want to cause problems in our various communities in Nigeria.
