“Buhari Will Die In 2017 – Ghanaian Prophet

“Buhari Will Die In 2017 – Ghanaian Prophet Makes Shocking Prophecies By Ngyab Staff - January 1, 2017 0 3.52k Call him what you may; a soothsayer, a pastor, a politician on a pulpit, or a prophet of doom. Isaac Owusu Bempah, founder and leader of the Glorious Word Ministry International continues to dominate the headlines in Ghana, often for reasons other than right. The pastor, who has courted controversy in Ghana for several years appears to have a trigger that sparks such discussions about him. The 31st of December 2016 was one such day he decided to make use of that trigger.

However, some of his utterances on new year’s eve seem to have gotten Ghanaians more worried than excited. The controversial man of God is predicting the deaths of a former president, a former first lady as well as a ‘great king’ in Ghana. He’s also predicting a terrorist attack in the country, a coup d’etat as well as more clashes between Christians and Muslims in the country. The prophecies, though intriguing to the several who hear them, have left many pondering what really a 2017 Ghana will look like. But Rev Owusu Bempah could not be bothered about how his prophecies are interpreted. His message is simple: Pray to avert them.

Nigeria Could Teach the West a Few Things

A trip is often defined by its surprises, so here are my biggest revelations from six days in Lagos, Nigeria.

Most of all, I found Lagos to be much safer than advertised. It is frequently described as one of the most dangerous cities on earth. Many people told me I was crazy to go there, and some Nigerian expats warned me I might not get out of the airport alive.

The reality is that I walked around freely and in many parts of town. I didn’t try to go everywhere or at all hours, and I may have been lucky. Yet not once did I feel threatened, and I strongly suspect that a trip to Lagos is safer than a trip to Rio de Janeiro, a major tourist destination. (In my first trip to Rio I was attacked by children with pointed sticks. In my second I found myself caught in a gunfight between drug lords). Many Lagos residents credit the advent of closed-circuit television cameras for their safety improvements.

So if you’re an experienced traveler, and tempted to visit Africa’s largest and arguably most dynamic city, don’t let safety concerns be a deal killer.

Nigeria’s Horrors and Hopes

The surprises mount. For all the negative publicity, many parts of Nigeria, especially Lagos, could and should serve as exemplars for religious tolerance.

The reports of Boko Haram and terror killings are well known, and they reflect the interlocking and sometimes deadly combinations of regional, religious, sectarian and ethnic identities in the country, not to mention extreme inequalities of income and opportunity. Yet Nigeria has about 180 million people and is larger than Texas. The violence is the most frequently reported story in the West, but the underlying reality is far more complex and shows positive features.

For instance, the city of Lagos is in many regards a marvel of religious tolerance. Nigeria is about 50 percent Muslim and 40 percent Christian, and the area surrounding Lagos is also highly mixed in terms of religion. That may sound like a recipe for trouble, but in matters of religion Lagos is almost entirely peaceful. Religious intermarriage is common and usually not problematic, as is the case in many (not all) other parts of Nigeria as well. Many top Nigerian politicians have married outside their religion, kept two separate religions in the family and enjoyed continued political success. 

Consider the scale and speed of this achievement. Lagos, with a population of about 20 million, is larger than many countries. It is the most commercially oriented part of Nigeria, and it grew so large only in the last few decades, as it attracted entrepreneurially minded people from many parts of Nigeria and other African countries. By one estimate, 85 new residents arrive every hour. That may sound chaotic, but in essence Nigeria has in a few decades created an almost entirely new, country-sized city built on the ideals and practice of religious tolerance. The current president, Muhammadu Buhari, is a Muslim who was supported in his election by many Christian leaders, on the grounds that he would fight corruption more effectively. His running mate served as a Pentecostal pastor. 

The recent history of Nigeria, Lagos in particular, is also a counterweight to some recent Western political trends. Many Westerners today fear resurgent nationalism, as illustrated by the U.K.'s vote to leave the European Union and the election of Donald Trump.

In Nigeria, nationalism is largely a progressive force, bringing the country together and allowing nation-building and infrastructure development. However imperfect or backward these processes might be -- Nigeria has at least 270 distinct ethnic groups and 370 languages -- in Nigeria one is rooting for nationalism to succeed. And it’s in Lagos, the country’s largest and most important window to the outside world, where the understanding of the importance of a common and stable national identity has made such progress. 

Many Westerners used to consider much of Africa backward in this regard, but we Westerners are learning again that national cohesion isn’t always so easy. Perhaps the political spectrum in many Western countries can realign itself in a direction analogous to some features of Nigeria, to ally liberalism and nationalism once again.

Niger Delta running out of patience, leaders tell Buhari

By Chido Okafor, Warri   |   06 January 2017   |   4:35 am

Chief Edwin Kiagbodo Clark

• Insist on restructuring to end nation’s woes
• 2017 budget faces threat
• Lament alleged assault on Jonathan’s family

Niger Delta leaders from different parts of the region yesterday warned the presidency to be concerned about the growing impatience in Nigeria’s crude oil belt as a result of delay in the proposed dialogue between government and regional stakeholders.

The leaders were at Kiagbodo, hometown of Ijaw leader, Chief E.K Clark in Delta State to reflect on recent developments, especially the long-awaited negotiation with the Federal Government that would bring peace to the troubled region.

The meeting is coming at a time of relative peace in the region following the ceasefire by militants. The delay by the Federal Government in firming up a peace deal with the leaders could reverse the gains of this ceasefire. Top among these is the return of militancy that would jeopardise the oil sector and dim the hope of the nation’s recovery from its current recession since the economy is oil-dependent.

Already the daily crude production projection of 2.1 million barrels per day (mbd) upon which the 2017 budget is predicated is down to 1.5 million as a result of the trouble in the region

At the extended meeting of the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) chaired by former military governor of Akwa Ibom State, Air Commodore Idongesit Nkanga (rtd) were also former Minister of Police Affairs, Alowei Broderick Bozimo; Chief Power Aginighan; Senator Stella Omu; Daniel Reineju, member representing Warri Federal Constituency at the House of Representatives; and former managing director of Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission (DESOPADEC), Chief Wellington Okrika.

Before reporters were asked to leave the meeting, Chief Edwin Clark had expressed the frustration of the region, urging President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately set up a committee to dialogue with PANDEF. He noted that since the group met the president in November 2016, nothing had happened.

Clark was particularly miffed that Buhari’s senior media aide, Femi Adesina allegedly said recently on television that the proposed negotiation with the region was stalled because there were no credible people to talk to. Clark described the comment as an insult.

“When Mr. President gave his New Year message, he was particular about the Niger Delta. He said he was ready to dialogue with the Niger Delta leaders. We commend him for agreeing that dialogue is the right thing to do. But there should be no impression that the presidency has not seen credible people to discuss with.

“We are appealing to the president that we have been waiting and we are tired of waiting. Our youths whom they call militants have accepted ceasefire and have stopped destroying oil facilities and have been waiting for the president to discuss with their leaders. Now they are getting impatient.”

According to Clark, the Niger Delta has credible leaders and groups just like the Arewa, Ohanaeze and Afenifere that the Federal Government should negotiate with. He explained that in November 2015, a large number of Niger Delta leaders, women and youths met with the president but that nothing seemed to have happened since then.

He urged Buhari to set up a team to negotiate with the leaders of the Niger Delta whom he said were becoming inpatient.

In a statement issued at the end of the meeting, the forum criticized “the orchestrated assault on the family of former President Goodluck Jonathan”, saying the intention was to humiliate him. The leaders found the alleged silence of President Buhari on the issue disturbing.

They observed that after over two months of meeting, the president has not constituted the dialogue team for the speedy resolution of the various issues in the region. They took exception to the statement credited to Adesina that the president was still in search of credible leaders of the Niger Delta.

Also, the forum demanded the urgent release of the over N1 trillion Federal Government under-contribution to the funds of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), just as it urged the government to direct the immediate takeoff of the Nigerian Maritime University, Okerenkoko, Delta State.

The PANDEF reiterated its earlier position on the urgent need for the restructuring of the Nigerian federation along the lines of fiscal federalism as the only sustainable solution to the Nigerian crisis.

Muhammad Ali ’s multi-million dollar will has been finalised­ at last - with the settlement set to spark “World War Three” among his family.
The boxing legend’s widow Lonnie is allegedly getting double what his children­ will receive, which is likely to inflame an already poisonous atmosphere.
“Once the money is there, expect the biggest war yet,” said an insider.
The siblings, said to hate each other, have maintained­ a fragile truce not to risk their slices of Ali’s $80million (£65million) estate. Ali died in June, aged 74, and the money is yet to handed out.
An attorney for the Muhammad Ali Trust, which governs the distribution of his estate, said: “It was crafted to reflect his specific wishes and to protect his legacy.”
But now the family have been told what they will get, that legacy could include a bitter family fallout. His nine children­ are each set to pocket around $6million. Ali’s only sibling, brother Rahman, whose feud with the boxer’s widow was well documented­, gets no money.
His seven daughters and two sons, including biological son Muhammad Ali Jr and adopted son Asaad - are expected to let their true feelings be known after being told the legal process is over.

Bitterness lingers over how their father was buried and the fact Will Smith, Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson were pallbearers, not his sons.

The insider added: “They all play nice-nicey now, but simmering tension goes back decades. None of the kids trust Lonnie, all are from different mothers and hate each other.
“Lonnie is said to get double what the kids have which has left many seething. They didn’t like her before their dad passed away accusing her of preventing them from seeing him.
“When he died some sucked up to Lonnie just to get as much as they can, but the truth is that they all did it - then accused the other siblings of doing it.
“Once money is in the bank it looks like they will cut all ties with each other but not before their true feelings are aired. But it’s not just the inheritance. There is a lot of bitterness between the family’s strict Muslims and non-believers for the way the funeral was conducted.

“They were disgusted he wasn’t buried within 48 hours as the Koran states, and that Will Smith and Mike Tyson were pallbearers. Some of the children are appalled it was more about a celebrity list than his own flesh and blood.

“World War Three is threatened and true feelings are expected to come flooding, and a few truths be told.”
Already the fallout over the inheritance and the time taken to resolve it has led to problems for Ali’s only natural son.
Currently flat broke and without a bank account Muhammed Ali Jnr, 44, has been kicked out of his flash home.

After dumping wife Shaakira, and children Ameera, eight, and Shakera, seven, he moved to a ritzy house in Chicago, a world away from his tiny family home in the city’s toughest area.
But Ali Jnr was thrown out by his furious landlord for repeatedly smoking cannabis.
He’s now at the home of his mother, Khalilah Camacho-Ali’s (known as Belinda Boyd before connecting to Islam) in Deerfield Beach, Florida.
Sources say the boxer’s second wife, came back into his life after Ali’s death.
The pair are now holed up at her apartment and friends fear Ali Jnr could even relapse onto harder drugs.
A pal revealed it was while he was living with his mother 20 years ago that he first got hooked on crack before he managed to walk away from it.
The friend added: “He went to California­ ­and Vegas with his mother, and now they’re in Florida. We think his mum has ulterior motives.

“She needs money as she’s got medical ailments and no health insurance. She begged her family to help pay for an op after breaking a leg. Junior’s come about at just the right time.

“ Them being together now is not good, especially as he’s got some money. He gets up past 2pm most days, he’s sounding in bad shape, whacked out. He got hooked on crack in the 90s.”
The friend said it happened after his mum took the family mansion when she split from Ali and he moved in with her: “She met some people who were doing coke. He became hooked.
“But they got into an argument, he told her he’s not living like it anymore. He got out and cleaned himself up.”

Smoking drugs was only the start­ of Ali Jr’s odd behaviour since his dad died.

It includes having a fling with an 50-year-old woman he met on Facebook, who claimed she was a medium and could speak to his dead father.
He met her in Kentucky and started three-way conversations with his dad, through the medium. The pal said: “She was full of s*** and just after his cash.”
But the confidant says his mum and the psychic lover will be disappointed thanks to his big sister Maryum.
The friend adds: “Muhammad is not capable of even paying bills, doing normal things, Maryum is level-headed­ and won’t let him screw up his share.
“Whatever he’s given, he has it in pieces. They’ve tried giving him money before, and he gets cheated out of it.
