Politics / Re: President Tinubu Calls For Suspension Of Sanctions On Guinea, Mali, Niger, And B by onyeali(m): 5:23pm On Feb 24
Tinubu is not a fit and proper person to lead a big nation like Nigeria. He doesn't plan before embarking on a strategies policies that may have severe adverse effect on the people. He removed fuel subsidy without any platform put in place to cushion the effect, he floated naira without the necessary monitoring policies to avert the overwhelming fall of naira and his handling of Wike and Fubara saga is undemocratic.

Following the supreme court decision declaring Abure as the authentic Labour Chairman, it therefore means that Apapa faction is illegal and unknown to law. Any attempt by Apapa faction to produce a candidate in any election under labour party, it shall be null and void. I think
Apata is being used by some unscrupulous elements to cause trouble in Labour party and those unscrupulous elements sees Labour party as a threat.

[quote author=etrouble post=84007313]

Yes, the Court needs to tell us why it sacked all APC elected members that won Zamfara elections with very wide margins and replaced them with PDP candidates that lost woefully. The Court also needs to tell us how much the judges collected from Nyesom Wike for them to fraudulently prevent APC from contesting any election in Rivers State thereby making PDP the automatic winner of all available positions in Rivers State.

This is the problem with Nigerians, they don't have one voice on important issues that affect their lives. They will always introduce politics or sentiment on important national issues that affect them.

He said it even as a law maker, in fact he sponsored a bill which will make Nigeria to be importing electric cars but unfortunately the bill didn't pass first reading at the Senate and consequently it was thrown out.

[quote author=ericsmith post=68799482] i know it as become an hobby to blame FG for all misfortune in our nation but what am yet to comprehend is the statuory dutiez of this governors, is there a clause or exception to security. killings in small rural community we call FG, why do we have governors & local govt.
the governors proclaim themselves as been powerless when situations like insecurities arise but when it comes to politics governors tussle power with acclaimed almighty FG.
how exactly as lagos been able to curb securities challenges with such growing population, if lagos has money is that the criteria to own efficient security forces? even when pdp was ruling lagos govt have alway taken responsibility.
same governors that could insult or challenge the FG without consequence will be acting errand boy when situation exposing there incompetences arises. if lagos can protect herself any state CAN. fvck FG


There is no nothing much the governors can do,this is because all the security agencies in the country are under the control of FG.

Tallesty1:
A Governor visits a state owned primary school in the East to talk about "Peace In The Region". After his talk he offers question time.

One little boy puts up his hand. He asks him what his name is.

“Kenneth,” he says

"And what is your question, Kenneth?” he asks.

"I have three questions,” he says.
“1st — what have you done to secure the lives and properties of your people from herdsmen?

2nd — why should we vote for you again when you're not paying workers salaries?

And, 3rd — what are you people doing to secure the release of the school girl that refused to denounce her faith?”

Just then the bell rings for recess. The politician informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.

When they resume He says, “Okay, where were we? Oh, that’s right, question time. Who has a question?”

A different boy — puts his hand up.
The politician points to him and asks him what his name is.

“John,” he says.

“And what is your question, John?” he asks.

“I have five questions,” he says.
“1st — why is the goverment silent on herdsmen?

2nd — why do you want a second tenure when you've not started any project?

3rd — when are you going to pay workers their salary?

4th — why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early?”

And 5th — where’s Kenneth?”…

Honestly, I feel like crying. Nigeria is in trouble!

Religion / Re: How The Living Faith Church Funds Her Private Jet By Leke Beecroft by onyeali(m): 9:00am On Dec 31, 2017
[quote author=Statsocial post=63695115]By Leke Beecroft

THIS ARTICLE HOW NECESSARY AND COST EFFECTIVE IS OWNERSHIP OF JETS BY MEGA CHURCHES?


#1. The Efficiency Factor:

First of all, how efficient are the commercial services of the Nigerian aviation system? This answer is an obvious NO and has been so through the years. Is there anyone reading this in Nigeria, who is a regular air traveller and whose flight has never been delayed or who has never experienced some form of disappointment? In 2011, Oyedepo visited 27 countries for missionary purposes. In a particular week, I monitored his movement from sunday evening when he left Lagos for Kenya till friday evening when he arrived back in Lagos, Nigeria for a night ministration. He was in Zambia, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania and Botswana (if my memory serves me right) in a spate of five days and was back to minister at the night session in Nigeria. This would have been absolutely impossible using commercial aviation means in Africa. No wonder Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo pointed out that as close as Liberia or Togo and other West African countries were to Nigeria, it was easier to get a commercial flight to London than to our neighbours here in Africa.

#2. The Ignorance, busy-body and Poverty Mentality Factor:

Secondly, when missionary establishments of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s flew in white missionaries on jets or helicopters, they were welcomed by the Nigerian locals and it was an acceptable sight. Why? They were whites. One of the greatest issues with missionary owned jets in Africa is the poverty mentality. Today, several billionaires in Nigeria are celebrated because they own jets. Young musicians and artistes are also celebrated for wearing large "bling blings" and "Chopping their money" on private jets...but when indigenously established missionary organizations, whose only mission is to save your soul are discovered to own these same aircraft to facilitate easy air trips, every busybody wants to have a say and criticize, sometimes very insultive....including those who have either never stepped foot in a church, never dropped a dime in offerings to God or have never even embraced the commandments of the Bible.

As much as criticism of missionary owned jets may be "religiously and politically" correct, I make bold to say they are scripturally incorrect. We are called covenant children of Abraham; what does the Bible say about Father Abraham? Genesis 13:2 "And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold." Genesis 24:1 "And Abraham was old, and well stricken in age: and the Lord had blessed Abraham in all things." I am also very glad that after the death of Jesus Christ on the cross, it took a wealthy man to come get his body and put him in a befitting tomb. Also before his death when Judas was grumbling about the Alabaster Box that should have been given to the poor, the Bible had this to say "Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him, Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? This he said, not that he CARED for the poor; but because he was a THIEF, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein." John 12;4-6.

If the argument is really about giving to the poor, why not also ask all the oil moguls in the country, all businessmen, musicians and all other owners to sell their jets and give to the poor? Obviously the emphasis isn't about the poor but anger and envy that wealth seems to be moving to the church...unfortunately, it hasn't even started. The Bible is the constitution of the christian. if what is in the Bible hurts your feelings, I render no apologies....let God be true and every man be a liar. Romans 3:4.

#3. Travel Frequency, Time, Administrative and Global Reach Factor:

For record purposes, as at the last time I checked and I believe I am current, the christian organizations who presently own aircraft in Nigeria are the Redeemed Christian Church of God which has branches in over 190 countries, the Living Faith Church Worldwide with branches in over 60 countries and 'Shiloh' online presence in over 170 countries, Christ Embassy with 'Rhapsody' presence in over 180 countries and branches in at least 4 continents as well as the immediate past CAN President, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor led Word of Life Bible Church. Pastor Ayo began to broadcast to the world before any of the afore mentioned pastors, back in 1987.

I ask another question; is it true that the leaders of some of these organizations travel regularly around the world? Do you have any idea what the itinerary of the Adeboyes, Oyedepos, Oritsejafors and Oyakhilomes entail?


Again it was Pastor Adeboye that said “there are things you need. When you have to oversee churches in 160 countries, you can’t do that on a bicycle,” Bishop Mike Okonkwo in an interview seemed to be in disagreement with some pastors listed here, the press excitedly tried to instigate him the more by asking about the ownership of jets. He explained to them however how he had once travelled to the Central African Republic for a programme but had to wait idly for almost a week for a return flight to Nigeria through Cameroon...... Any serious man or organization has respect for their time. The Church is one of such. Pastor Sam Adeyemi said once that all you need to grow old on time is to be a regular commercial flier on long trips.

#4. The Maintenance Cost Factor:

"If you are rich and desire to become poor quickly, own an aircraft." Pastor Enoch A Adeboye.

[b]Very many people do not understand what it takes to maintain an aircraft, especially in a country like Nigeria where aviation is controlled almost purely at the Federal level. How many people remember the issues with payment of parking fees for the Nigerian Presidential jet in 2009/10 when President Yar' Adua was flown to Saudi Arabia? Large sums of money (probably in millions of dollars) were paid for the aircraft which sat idly at the Riyadh King Khalid International Airport. One organization which used to charter aircraft frequently for movement to her crusade venues around the globe once paid about #75,000,000 (Seventy Five Million naira) annually for parking her aircraft at Bristow helicopters in Lagos.

Those who usually tout the example of the Pope who charters and flies Alitalia do not even realise that his accumulated flight expenses along with his entourage in just 30 flights will buy a nice jet. Let me break it down. Is it better to buy a car or charter a cab so expensive that you would have spent the cost of that car in just 30 drops?[/b]

My question again is, is it better to park your aircraft idly at the airport and pay these heavy parking sums to the government from church offerings not forgetting servicing, repairs and maintenance costs or lease them to aviation companies which in turn return profit at no cost to the church? Rev Gabriel Oduyemi bought a jet for church use. I do not need to tell the story of what happened to that aircraft but remember that it was the same aircraft that Omotola Jolade Ekeinde's pilot husband bought as 'scrap". Lest I forget, the average Captain in the aviation industry earns $10,000 (N3,600,000 or N3.6m) monthly. For two captains, that will be $20,000 (N7.2m) monthly or $240,000 (N86.2m) annually, not forgetting travel and landing allowances, hotel bills for the pilots etc. Young pilots need to accumulate hours and hours of flight so they opt for commercial planes instead of private jets who do not fly that regularly. This means that owning a private jet leaves you with almost no option than to hire experienced or veteran captains. This of course means you pay well for it. Luke 16:8 "And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation WISER THAN THE CHILDREN OF LIGHT".


Fortunately, the children of light are wiser now. They lease out their jets when not in use and avoid incurring unnecesary and exorbitant costs while the aircraft remains active even when not in use. Winners’ Chapel stretched this point. Among the first generation of missionary aircraft owners, she started leasing out her aircraft to EMS Speedpost once she realised what the costs of maintenance entailed and with due notice, she would use same jet for her missionary trips eventually an oil company also leased the jet and had to pay compensation after an accident. The church decided to buy another aircraft and this time built a hangar at the airport in Lagos. The hangar has space for 6 jets at a time. Now she does not rely on "church income" to maintain the hangar but runs it as a separate concern, funding itself. This is the line Church jet owners should be towing. I will quickly add at this point that for large organizations, it is cheaper to own aircraft than to keep paying for commercial air tickets or for charter services. If leasing a missionary aircraft will save costs and preserve the life of that aircraft for longer use, then that is simply the way to go



In the time of Jesus and his disciples, there was no private jet. Had it been private jet was in existence at that time; Christ and his disciples would have own one.I see no reason why christians can't have private jet if unbelievers can have it.
