Delete"Ur friend" I believe you can pass on ur massage without bringing her hubby into this . Next time chose tour words carefully.
DeleteShut up that is the only sensible thing to do..... A committee wil get the facts from both sides as the gov does not have all the details.... It's not everything u little rats will come here and critisize....

DeletePoliticians and committees, they go together in Nigeria!
ReplyDeleteIf person fart, them go set committee,
Nothing is ever resolved with these committees most times sef!
Stella u see why it's good to hear from both parties in a dispute before passing judgement. Some pple were already accusing the governor and the catholics for the destruction. Some were already cursing the governor for it whereas the issue wasn't from him.
ReplyDeleteCatholics should liv politics n concentrate in preaching d gospel.Yrs ago when mission schools were returned to churches.Comprehensiv secondar school Nawfia is an Anglican school.yet catholics came there trying to build d statute of virgin mary!What does dis tell u?Obiano allowed himself to be used most unfortunately.After his damage control he shud rebuild d church.y didn't dis demolition happen durin Ngige,Etiaba or Peter regimes?Was d church build when obiano assumed office?Did d communual fight just start?He had get gud advisers kos obviously his aguleri dominated cabinet wil sink him.

Looks are deceptive and a look doesnt make a monk. Say something better next time.

Governor please sort this out ASAP!
ReplyDeleteMy parents house is beside d so called school. The structure in question is a primary school:Oyolu Oze primary School 3-3 Junction Nkwelle Ezunakka, Anglicans normally use d church 4 Sunday services. Pls, its not an Anglican church but a govt owned school. Meanwhile there are 4 catholic churches around dis 3-3 junction with d Capuchin Friars jst a stone throw away from d school.
ReplyDeleteBut wait o,is this Governor bleaching? Why does his face look funny?
ReplyDeleteAnon 8:59 AM Is the an Anglican church abi Catholic church?
ReplyDeleteI hope this committee will actually achieve something tangible cos most of the committees been set up in this country end up costing us more than the problem they were set up for.
@ Patt...Seen? Yeah right
Jst called my mum & she told me d fight is between Nkwelle Ezunakka R d Anglican church. Dt d Anglican church started building a church inside d school compound which did not go down well with d indigenes of Nkwelle Ezunakka.Even d Anglican bishop of Awka diocese was there with the Governor 2 calm d situation and they were shouting their own bishop down. Please it has nothing 2 do with the Roman Catholic Church. Mw my mum is an Anglican dnt think im taking sides.
ReplyDeleteThat was exactly what was shown on channels tv ...and I said it yesterday....but most people were just interested in tearing him down without giving him a chance sef...when they hardly even know him.......people shouldn't be so fast in judging
DeleteThank God i didn't curse out this man ooh, i said lets wait and see.... so we are still waiting.
