I've been curious and thinking about this subject based on assertions by different "Christians" and bible scholars. Some believe all sins are equal while others assert that some are more and will attract more punishments. Now lets reason together, are all sins equal, and if not, which is greatest?

@tellwisdom, pls no abuses or name-calling. He made a gud pt. Make urs or just read through. Thanks.

Adaobi, it's not the first oh, ve hosted many. But u won't understand why this is special and why am soliciting advice in order to avoid any mistake. @mynd and chidy's advice, that's exactly my starting point. They r gud counsellors.

Lolz @Spensa. No be small freak... Maybe am an optimist......

Where r the babes in the house.... 2days to her arrival... (I can't fit wait sef)...... Lolz

@chidy, thanks. I appreciate that advice. I'll implement that "that's not why i invited u" pattern if it gets to that level. Lolz

@Acidosis, i reject preg prophesy. I'm not after sex with her. Upon her closeness and time she spent with me(almost on daily basis) i never laid my hands on her that's why she's not scared to visit from SW to SS. She is a gal am considering marriage with so i won't worry her for sex. It will surely come at the right time. @Sara, it's not in my nature to impress women. I never did it then to her, and i don't intend to do it now.

@mynd, thanks for the advice. I'll put in into practice. As for ur question, we didn't really discus much abt sex though she was always around me during our service yr. I never saw her with a guy. She will always come to my lodge after work. She used to say am fun to be with, the reason, i guess made her accept me. She was so decent such that i wudnt be surprised if she is still a V. She's just 23.

Hello friends, i met this gal in 2012 when i was serving, we got talking and became gud friends. To summarize the whole story, we became very close to the point that i asked her out last year( though on phone chat since we've not seen each other after our POP), she agreed and has promised to visit and spend this weekend with me. I truly love her and wudnt mind spending my life with her. I need advice on what to and what not to do and say as this wud determine the future and lifespan of the relationship. Ur advice will be appreciated esp from the gals in the house.

@Djeezy, as at when i left, her reason was unknown. It was a very horrible scenario. The guy was just speechless. According to him, he didn't do anything to her to merit such embarrassment, and that the gurl didn't show any sign of quitting b4 the incident.

@Martha, he is really a liar. God forbid bad thing. No trick of the devil shall prevail this yr.

It was a mixture of comedy, shock and sadness as a girl dumped her fiance yesterday morning after guest had converged from far and wide for her TM. The incident that happened in calabar kept every body wondering what could have informed such decision and action from the girl. Wonders, they say shall never end. But some girls get mind oh. After they had finished cooking, arranging the venue, etc. I pity the guy sha. The reason for the girl's action is yet to be unravelled.

Amaechi never made me Deputy Speaker
– Opara
on january 01, 2014 at 6:12 am in politics
By BEN AGANDE
ABUJA—Former Deputy Speaker of House of
Representatives, Mr. Austin Opara, yesterday,
dismissed allegations by the governor of
Rivers State, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, that the
governor made him Deputy Speaker of the
House of Representatives, noting that
Amaechi’s claim was a manifestation of his
ignorance of parliamentary procedures.
In an interview with journalists in Abuja,
yesterday, Opara said if anybody had
betrayed his benefactors, it was Amaechi
“who betrayed Peter Odili and the people of
Rivers State, who entrusted him with their
votes.”
Governor Amaechi had, during the
convention of Ogbako Ikwere in Emohua
Local Government Area of Rivers State,
alleged that he begged President Jonathan
to make, Mr Nyeson Wike, minister and also
made Mr Opara Deputy Speaker of House of
Representatives.
I disagree with the fact that
there is a North/South divide
*Opara
He had said: “By the grace of God, I made
Chief Opara, Deputy Speaker of the House of
Representatives. God used me. Prominent
politicians met me and told me that there
cannot be two captains in a boat, if I make
Opara Deputy Speaker, I might not be the
political leader in Ikwerre, but I said I want
my people to benefit and I picked Opara’s
name and we battled to make him Deputy
Speaker of the House of Representatives in
2003.”
Reacting, Opara said that Amaechi’s
statement was a “sign of ignorance on how
parliamentary procedures work. It is
unfortunate that a public officer of the
status of a governor can make such careless
statement of that magnitude. He was
Speaker of the Rivers State House of
Assembly. How can a member of the state
House of Assembly make one a deputy
speaker of the House of Representatives? It
is a sign of ignorance on how parliamentary
procedures work. Amaechi never made me
deputy speaker, so the issue of betrayal
does not even arise.
“Presiding officers of the National Assembly
are elected on the floor of the Assembly by
members. Amaechi was never a member of
the National Assembly, so whatever role he
claimed to have played, and he is the only
one that knows, does not mean he made me
deputy speaker. I know that Amaechi was
one of those who spoke to Peter Odili to
support my aspiration.
Even at that, Odili has never claimed to have
made me deputy speaker of the House of
Representatives. It is unfortunate that a
governor can make such a statement.
Amaechi requires our prayers and sympathy.
I say so, because former Governor Odili
practically forced me out of the contest for
the Rivers State governorship election in
favour of Amaechi. Today, Amaechi is
persecuting and prosecuting Odili,” he said.

Tricycle operator commits
suicide in lover’s home
on october 21, 2013 at 7:01 am in news
BY EMMA AMAIZE & AKPOKONA OMAFUAIRE
WARRI — A tricycle opera-tor, weekend,
allegedly committed suicide by hanging
himself in the residence of his lover at
Okpokiti Street, Warri South Local
Government Area, Delta State.
Vanguard understood that the deceased
committed suicide because his lover left him
in her house to sleep somewhere else.
When Vanguard correspondent arrived the
scene, neighbours were seen discussing the
incident, while homicide detectives from the
‘A’ Police Division, Warri, came to remove the
dangling remains to the morgue of the
CentralHospital, Warri.
The policemen, who declined comments
later took the girlfriend away for
questioning.
A tenant, who pleaded anonymity, told
Vanguard, “it all started last night (Saturday),
when we heard the deceased and his
girlfriend arguing.
“I was sleeping in my room when I heard
them arguing. It is like the young man
wanted to spend the night with the girl, but
the girl refused.
“The argument got to a point and the girl
told the boy that if he was going to spend
the night in her house, she will not sleep in
the same house with him.
“The boy told the girl that if she leaves, he
would kill himself. The girl, thinking that the
boy was joking, told him to go ahead and
kill himself, left the boy in the room and
went to go and sleep in another place.”
It was gathered that when the girl returned
in the morning (yesterday), she discovered
that the door was locked. She alerted her
neighbours, who helped her to force the
door open, only to see the lifeless body of
her boyfriend dangling from a rope.
The community people took the girl to the
police station. A senior police officer at the
‘A’ Police Division stopped Vanguard from
speaking with the girl, saying she was
undergoing interrogation. Source-www'vanguardngr.com

Delta magistrate’s kidnappers to
die by hanging
on october 11, 2013 at 6:05 am in news
BY AUSTIN OGWUDA
ASABA— AN Asaba High Court, yesterday,
sentenced two persons to death by
hanging, having found them guilty of
kidnapping and robbing a female
magistrate at gunpoint on Boxing Day two
years ago.
The convicted persons, Saidu Haruna and
Raphael Egwuba, who claimed to be phone
technicians and welder at Osubi,
respectively, were arraigned on a three-
count charge of conspiracy to commit
kidnapping, kidnapping and armed robbery
on charge no A/37C/2012.
Prosecution told the court that the female
magistrate was, on December 26, 2011,
driving into her compound at noon, when
the armed men abducted her.
She was eventually taken to a bush where
they dispossessed her of valuables,
including an ATM card, which the convicts
used to withdraw an undisclosed amount
before they were caught.
Trial
During trial, prosecution called two
witnesses, including the victim (female
magistrate), to prove its case and also
tendered some exhibits before the court,
including the magistrate’s Blackberry phone,
which eventually helped in tracking the
convicts.
Identification parades were also conducted
at the office of the Department of State
Services, DSS, and in the open court, where
the victim identified them.
The trial judge (identity withheld) in passing
the sentence yesterday, said: “I disbelieve
the evidence of the first and second accused
persons as their testimonies were full of
contradictions and meant to cover their
tracks.
“From the totality of the evidence before this
court, I hold that the first and second
accused persons were involved in the
kidnapping and robbing of one Onoriode
Yvonne Asheshe of her Honda Pilot SUV, ATM
card, jewelries and BlackBerry phone, while
armed with a gun.
“I hold that prosecution has proved
ingredients of counts one, two and three
against the accused beyond reasonable
doubt.
“For count three (armed robbery), I hereby
sentence the accused persons for execution
by hanging on the neck until they be dead.
May God have mercy on their souls.”

shymexx:

It seems you lot are ret.arded beyond redemption.

This is the excerpt again:



^^^^Take a deep breath, and read the second sentence.

It's obvious u really lack understanding. So bc they wrote that he greeted him with that statement in quote means he was begging him. Hmmmmm. SMH

What the president said is ironical. That he mentioned "you" dosnt mean he was begging Obama. It's better to read with understanding b4 commenting. Education is not only about knowing how to read and write.

Local government election has commenced in Cross River State. Cross Riverians and residents, what is the situation report in ur community and local Government? Here in Calabar, every where is calm,quiet and hitch-free. Though it's PDP all the way.
