CUOP ; LEGISLATIVE COUP AVERTED IN NIGERIA

By

A legislative coup against the Nigerian Acting Vice President,prof Yemi Osinbajo has been averted,as the senate attempted to make Saraki Immediate Acting President.

A mild drama occurred on the floor of the Senate, on Tuesday, when a point of order was raised, that the Senate President, Abubakar Bukola Saraki, was the Acting President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Senator Eyinanya Abaribe (Abia South), had raised a motion that the country had no President or Acting President at the moment, adding that, President Muhammadu Buhari and Professor Yemi Osinbajo, were neither in the country, as at the time.

This was greeted with a counter-point, coming through order 53 Rule 4 of the Senate Standing Rules, by Senator Kabiru Marafa (Zamfara Central).
Marafa, who cited relevant sections of the Nigerian Constitution, said: "If the President is not around, the Vice President should act; and if the Vice President is not around, the Senate President, who is the number 3 citizen should become Acting President."

The Senate President however, did not allow any seconder or more comments, even when Senators were agitating to support the motion. He quickly ruled Senator Marafa "out of order."

There are moves to unsit the present government of President Buhari and make his vice president irrelevant,do not be fooled by the antics of the senate and it's president,most of us know their game plans and they must be resisted.

Nigerians be warned.

SENATOR McCAIN TELLS CLINTON TO "SHUT UP" LIKE HE DID

By
Image
Senator John McCain says Hillary Clinton should not have published her book so soon after losing the 2016 election because it makes her look like she's still campaigning and has nothing else to do. "What's the f-----g point? Keep the fight up? History will judge that campaign, and it's always a period of time before they do," McCain told Esquire magazine in a long interview Monday. "You've got to move on. This is Hillary's problem right now: She doesn't have anything to do." McCain, 81, spoke with the magazine about his recent cancer diagnosis and the mutual animosity between him and President Donald Trump. But he had sharp criticism for Clinton as well, arguing that the defeated Democratic candidate should have taken a page from his 2008 presidential run as a Republican against Barack Obama. "One of the almost irresistible impulses you have when you lose is to somehow justify why you lost and how you were mistr...

DAILY DEVOTION FOR TODAY THE 12th November,2017

By

  A Good Minister   A daily devotion for November 12th   From your friends at  RayStedman.org     Read: 1 Timothy 4:6-10       If you point these things out to the brothers, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, brought up in the truths of the faith and of the good teaching that you have followed (1 Timothy 4:6).       It is necessary that we clearly understand the phrase Paul uses about Timothy. When he calls him  a good minister of Christ Jesus,  he is not thinking of him as a member of the clergy, like we would think of the pastor of a church standing up in front of a congregation. The word that is used here is actually the word deacon rather than minister-- a good deacon of Jesus Christ.  Even then the word is not referring to Timothy as an officer of the church; rather, it is the word that is commonly translated many places in Scripture as a  servant.  That is what a deacon is--one who serves. Here Paul is using the word in the widest sense possible-- a good servant of Jesu...

By

A wooden boat, which drifted ashore with eight partially skeletal bodies and was found by the Japan Coast Guard, is seen in Oga, Akita Prefecture, Japan, in this photo taken by Kyodo on November 27, 2017. Mandatory credit… A skeleton-filled ghost ship carrying the remains of eight ill-fated seafarers washed ashore on Japan's North Korean-facing coast, the Japanese Coast Guard said Monday -- days after the body of a suspected North Korean man and parts of another wrecked wooden craft were discovered on a Japanese island. The grisly find could be evidence of desperate defectors trying a new route to freedom after despot Kim Jong Un has clamped down on those fleeing the Hermit Kingdom this year. A Japanese resident spotted the 22-foot wooden boat Friday floating in Miyazawa Beach in Oga, Akita Prefecture, along the Sea of Japan, Japan Times reported. Officials searched the vessel Sunday and Monday and found several of the remains were "skeletonized," indi...

DAILY DEVOTION FOR TODAY 3RD OF NOVEMBER 2017

  Chief Of Sinners   A daily devotion for November 3rd   From your friends at  RayStedman.org     Read: 1 Timothy 1:12-17       This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief (1 Timothy 1:15 KJV).       That sounds simple to us, yet it is very profound. All of us were mixed up, confused, bewildered, darkened in our understanding, and alienated from the life of God. Read Paul's descriptions in Ephesians about what we were like before we came to Christ. Everybody--those with brilliant minds, highly educated people--everybody is in the same boat. Christ Jesus came to take away the darkness, unveil the mysteries, remove the illusions, reveal reality, and awaken love, compassion, mercy, and ministry to others. This is the purpose of Christianity. Then Paul says what is the most astonishing thing of all in this passage:  Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.  If he had sai...
