I don't believe this has anything to do with what Ambode's wife did. it's just a coincidence. after all, Raji Fashola is a Muslim; he didn't give a f*ck about Christianity yet he spent four years in the GH. if God's vengeance comes so soon, I wonder why he hasn't arrested the Boko Haram insurgents, the fulani herdsmen and even El-Rufai that openly challenged Christians and Christianity in kaduna state. What about China they hate Christianity with passion. yet their economy is booming. what about the Philippines, their president is an atheist, yet his political life is at its peak. because Ambode's wife slapped a priest or whoever, that's why God should use Tinubu, a Muslim to unseat him. let's not forget, in Epe, the hometown of the governor, there have been a prayer sessions on behalf of the governor. so, if it means that God has not forgiven him after all the prayers, them I'm sorry God is not the merciful God he is reputed to be. don't link Christianity with politics. most politicians are members of some powerful occult. forget what they come out in the open to tell us. |

Smart365Life: Wives wield power only over weak husbands, why isn't Aisha Buhari controlling PMB? Why isn't BRF bring controlled by his wife? It is not woman's responsibility to rein in it, it is d man's job cos he's d leader of the family. Women will always misbehave, it's left to d man to call them to order. Cos Adam left Eve wandering about the garden, that's how she was beguiled by d devil. Adam knew Eve was in trouble but didn't want her to suffer the consequences alone. Men have always fine foolish things for women. |

Life lesson. See what a stupid woman could do to an hardworking but unwise man. Though I supported Ambode because he seem to have demonstrated his capacity to develop Lagos in ways others before him couldnt. But if indeed he sacked the Reverend in order to pacify his wife, then karma just had its way. It generally show lack of wisdom. Nonetheless I am wishing you will decamp from APC. Tinubu end is near. |

lebete3000:The bolded is the only statement I find relevant to my earlier statement you quoted. I never pitched women against their husbands. Neither did I try to elevate women above their husbands. You talked about Adam, could you talk about Bill Clinton too, to balance the equation? Because I mentioned both of them. As a man I think you shouldn't feel any discomfort if you wife realized she has the ability to help elevate you in any circumstance. Or would you rather see yourself as a weakling if she did? |

Demgohearword:Religion is an aspect that no politician in Nigeria should toy with if he wants to succeed. This issue of religion almost worked against Aregbesola of pain state. He tends to promote Islam more than Christianity buy building mosques in the state. He also allowed Muslim girls to be using hijabs to schools and other preferences this was causing serious tension in the state . It almost cost APC to loose the election. That is why I always say PDP is not a good alternative to APC. This is because if PDP were a party that is formidable, trusted and cooperative they would not have allowed Omisore to leave the party to the detriment of the party. The over 120,000 votes Omisore got would have given PDP a land slide victory over APC. The same issue of religion is going to play out against PMB next year. If a leader cannot see himself as a leader of all rather he wants to play religion with politics then he is bound to fail. He shows preferences one to the other.. It's only a smart, visionary, selfless, courageous, nationalistic, honest leader who doesn't toy with religion in country like Nigeria. A leader who is going somewhere.. |
