Jonathan says without PDP democracy in Nigeria will collapse

President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday commended the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for its effort towards preserving democracy in Nigeria. 
Speaking at the PDP’s 60th National Executive Commiittee meeting in Abuja, Mr Jonathan said “People who want to drown us know that without PDP, probably, the republic would have collapsed. Democracy would have collapsed years ago,  if not that PDP was on ground, playing its essential and most important role of preserving the nations democracy.”
The president accused the opposition of its continuous criticism of the PDP led government, stating that it was wrong for them to begin to apply the philosophy of  “when you say the wrong thing one thousand times, it becomes the right thing”
He said, “We witnessed what happened in the First Republic. Because we witnessed what happened in the first republic and we know the circumstances that led to the collapse of the First Republic and Second Republic, we are disciplined and committed towards ensuring that this democracy is preserved”
He asserted that the PDP led government has done very well in the area of acceptance of criticisms, both negatives and positives .
“They abuse us more, but we allow it. And it is the PDP that is handling the affairs of the country, that is stabilizing the democracy in the country,” he added.

Snoop Lion Excommunicated From The Rastafari Community

Snoop Lion excommunicated from the Rastafari Community, according to Bunny Wailer! Bunny has always had his doubts about  Snoop Lion ‘s intent and now his skepticism has taken an even stronger stance, that of excommunication. The news was broken via his  Facebook  profile and via  press release . Recently Snoop Lion has struggled to convince the Rastafari and Reggae community that he is sincere about his profession of, and transition to the faith, principles and beliefs of Rastafari. Most doubtful is Bunny Wailer the only living member of the original Wailer. ‘ Excommunication is a religious censure used to deprive, suspend, or limit membership in a religious community or to restrict certain rights within it. Some groups use the term disfellowship instead, ‘ stated Bunny’s official release.
