2015 and the Doubting Thomases
DOUBTING Thomases is the plural of a doubting Thomas. It refers to an incredulous or habitually doubtful person who is sceptical and refuses to believe something without proof.
I learnt the expression is a reference to the Apostle Thomas in the Bible, who refused to believe that Jesus Christ had resurrected despite testimonies of his friends and the 10 remaining fellow apostles insisting that he would only believe after seeing.
Going by experiences of Nigerians with their leaders especially on politics, there are many who will rather prefer to remain Doubting-Thomas. In fact, some of the Doubting-Thomases are not ordinary individuals but highly placed personalities even among the the media.
I do not judge a person by the group or party he/she belongs but by that person’s character and attributes. Remove Major General Mohammad Buhari from All Progressive Congress (APC) and President Goodluck Jonathan from Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) and what remain of the groups is same people that are of the same antecedents, character, dispositions and embodiments among others. These influence the wanton decamping from one party to the other because they lack ideological differences.
I must declare from the outset that whoever insults General Buhari, a former Head of State must be psychotic; and whoever attacks President Jonathan of non-performance must be a prevaricator.
Just to outsmart one another, the major political parties that is APC and PDP recourse to gutter politics to hoodwink not only the gullible public but surprisingly, even brainwash the supposedly enlightened individuals. It is surprising how people accept some conspiracy theories without questioning the rationality.
Sometimes last year, a former top military officer and a governor issued an official statement accusing Federal Government of being behind terrorism activities in North-East. He even claimed that aircrafts were dropping food and ammunition to the terrorists in their enclaves. Many of his colleagues believed the arguments until the accuser was asked to substantiate the allegations at the meeting of Council of States. Those who had earlier believed his allegations were ashamed when he was unable to substantiate and was thus forced to recant.
Sometime this year the National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki gave sincere advice that due to widespread insecurity in the North East as well as inability of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to distribute Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs), it was necessary to shift elections. The spirit of cynicism aka Doubting-Thomas took over and many Nigerians came up with theories of conspiracy. Just weeks after however, the same individuals who doubted the military’s excuse are now the ones commending Nigerian troops for liberating dozens of towns and villages from Boko Haram. Again, the rate of distribution of PVCs has increased from about 50% on February 3, 2015 to 80% by March 3, 2015.
While the debate on the postponement of elections raged, there were also allegations by Doubting-Thomases that the Federal government was planning to institute an Interim National Government (ING). The media was awash with insinuations despite the insistence by the Attorney General of the Federation, Mohammed Adoke that such contraption was illegal, unconstitutional and therefore, baseless.
In the midst of the confusion came yet another allegation that the Chairman of INEC was in the process of being removed without running afoul of any laws or regulations. Government officials did not only deny the speculations but President Goodluck Jonathan himself was forced to publicly deny the speculations. According to him, “INEC is a very sensitive body… You cannot wake up and change INEC Chairman… I never told anybody that I will remove him”. The President is conscious that he lacked powers to unilaterally removed INEC Chairman just like any other constitutionally recognised commissions. There are some arguments that are neither morally or logically sound.
Meanwhile, apart from politicians playing their games, there has been a deliberate ploy by certain individuals to bring security agencies into the fray. For instance, Doubting-Thomases raised false alarm that Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) and Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS) have been ordered to withdraw their personnel from some borders in the North-West without any cogent reason. One wonders what that action could have achieved. The timely response of Comptroller-General of Customs, Abdullahi Dikko and Comptroller General of Immigration, David Parradan in denying the allegations saved the situation from further controversies on same.
Though Doubting-Thomases are still sceptical if security chiefs would allow the rescheduled elections to hold, the Chief of Defence Staff, Air Marshall Alex Badeh and Inspector General of Police Abba Suleman have assured eminent members of National Peace Committee on General Elections led by former Head of State, General Abubakar Abdulsalami that “the elections will be free, fair, credible and violence-free.”
Not yet done, when the online news syndicate platform, PRNigeria reported that the military have been instructed to make every effort to capture the leader of Boko Haram terrorists alive, another allegation emerged. This time, the theory was that government was planning to arrest a fake terrorist and force him to implicate some leaders through false confessions and statements.
Not even the operations of the Multinational Joint Taskforce (MNJTF) were spared in the antics of Doubting-Thomases. It was politicised. Rather than see the Nigerian troops as our people, the military is being portrayed as part of the ruling party because they serve the government. For that reason some critics would rather attribute successes and accomplishments of the Nigerian troops to the efforts of partnering countries.
The painful irony is that Nigerian troops have been victims of the insurgents, victims of local collaborators within the communities who betray them, victims of a political class which castigates them unnecessarily and are also victims of social critics who refuse to commend their efforts when they do well but ridiculed when they fall to the bullets or daggers of terrorists.
While some of us enjoy the friendship and brotherliness of patriotic and well intentioned officers and politicians, it will be disappointing and disheartening if either of the political parties play into the hands of enemies of progress and inadvertently help to truncate our hard-earned and cherished democracy.
There are not much differences between the major political parties apart from the names of their flag-bearers. Our appeal therefore to partisan politicians, is that they should be conscious and mindful of what they do and say because Nigeria is bigger than individuals and institutions.
The March 28 and April 11, 2015 rescheduled dates of elections should remain sacrosanct while the swearing in of the elected President on May 29, 2015 must be respected.

YOU CAN COUNT ON GOD'S INTEGRITY
RE IS ANY
FAILURE CONCERNING GOD’S
PROMISES, YOU ARE PROBABLY THE
CAUSE”
ANCHOR TEXT: “God is not a man, that
he should lie, nor a son of man, that he
should change his mind. Does he speak
and then not act? Does he promise and
not fulfill?” Numbers 23:19.
Whatever God says concerning a man will
surely come to pass for He watches over
His word to perform it. One of His
promises for His children is to deliver
them out of troubles, and that was the
exact thing He did for the three Hebrew
boys. He delivered Shadrach, Meshach
and Abednego from the blazing furnace
prepared by King Nebuchadnezzar’s
soldiers in Daniel 3:25-27. He is also the
God that delivered Daniel from the Lion’s
den (Daniel 6:16-22). He promised to
supply your needs and He is doing it. He
has done it before, and He will not fail
concerning your matter. His desire for you
is to have blessings in abundance.

REASONS WHY YOU SHOULDN'T VOTE FOR GEJ FOR 2015
I have never seen any school built in his name.
* I have never seen any borehole constructed by
him.
* There is no record of any scholarship
awarded by him or for him nor through him.
* I have never seen him use his popularity to
canvass for any charitable work nor any
humanitarian
effort, not even at the height of the polio scourge
where other
purposeful and prominent leaders lead the
campaign for immunization.
* No single text book has been donated to any
school either by him, for him or through him.
* Asides from doing nothing, he has not improved
himself
since his exit from office.
* No book written, no memoirs, no lectures,
nothing.
* The only thing of note he can point to are his
numerous interviews on the BBC Hausa station.
* He never champion for a university in his state
nor has he ever been involved in any kind of
programme to better the lives of the Almajiris in
Daura.
* His entire existence has not lead to any
meaningful development in Daura, yet they say he
can change Nigeria.
Doesn't charity begin at home again?
* No wonder he was referred to as being
''perpetually unelectable''.
* He is not a patron to any organization, group or
association.
* No professional body in Nigeria has ever invited
him for their lecture, convention or gala night.
* The only time any known form, body or human
assemblage ever chose him to do
anything for them was when the Boko Haram
terrorist sect nominated him as their spoke
person in the proposed talks with the Fed. Govt.

All Choices well informed
12th January,2015
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“INFORMED STEPS MINIMISE MISTAKES”
Memory Verse: “So Lot chose for himself
the whole plain of the Jordan and set out
toward the east. The two men parted
company”
Genesis 13:11.
Every action one takes has its origin as
thoughts and choices, and the sum of all
actions produces the kind of person one
eventually becomes. There is a power in
man, received at creation, which when
properly used will bring confidence
instead of timidity, calmness instead of
confusion, poise instead of restlessness,
peace of mind in place of heartache. I am
talking about the will power or the power
of choice. An average person is daily
confronted with several alternatives on
sensitive life issues from which he must
make a choice almost on an hourly basis.
Issues such as where to go, who to meet
and what to say etc; intermittently pose
themselves as vital and destiny-defining
question that must be correctly
answered. This is where the subject of
choice comes to play, and except choices
are guided by the spirit of knowledge and
wisdom, there is bound to be mistakes
and regrets. Some choices bring
happiness, joy and fulfillment while some
bring tears, regrets and poverty. For
instance, the woman who gave birth to
Ronald Amundsen, the first man to reach
the North and South Pole wanted him to
become a medical doctor but Amundsen
decided to give his entire life to polar
expeditions based on his passion, love,
experience, dream and skill. Interestingly,
in 1926, Amundsen made his trip to the
North Pole in an airship built and piloted
by an Italian Engineer, Umberto Nobile. He
became the first person in history to
reach both poles. What an informed
choice of career!
According to Genesis 13:8-13, Lot ended
up losing his wife and properties because
the location he decided to choose for
himself was based on mere superficial
considerations of glamorous ephemerals.
Are you about making a decision on some
major issues of life? Never be in a hurry.
Take your time to pray, make adequate
consultations, and read relevant books.
This will widen your knowledge base and
consequently inform your choice. God
does not hurt anybody, in fact He loves
you. He has given you the power to help
yourself by giving you the right to make
your choices in life. Remember; be careful
of the choices you make because you will
always bear the consequences of those
choices.[pullquote]Are you about making

SOMEONE HAS TO RECOMMEND YOU WELL WHERE IT MATTERS
SUNDAY, 11TH JANUARY, 2015.
QUOTE OF THE DAY:“A TIMELY GOOD
RECOMMENDATION ELEVATES FASTER
THAN EFFORTS”
ANCHOR TEXT: “One of the servants
answered, “I have seen a son of Jesse of
Bethlehem who knows how to play the
harp. He is a brave man and a warrior. He
speaks well and is a fine-looking man.
And the Lord is with him”
1 Samuel 16:18.
Every human being you see is God’s
representative on earth, and can be used
by Him to execute His own purpose. God
won’t come down to assist man, He will
use people. But the person God will use
at a particular point in time is what
nobody knows. That’s His prerogative.
For instance, when an evil spirit from God
was tormenting King Saul, and he needed
relief, it was one of the servants in the
palace that recommended David well for
the assignment. Similarly, when King
Pharaoh became confused about the
dream he had, and needed interpretation,
it was the Chief Butler that Joseph met
briefly in the prison that recommended
him well before King Pharaoh.
