Why won't they?

Do u live on the moon?

Look at around you...about 72% of Nigerians live in abject poverty.

Mathematically, that's 129,600,000 people in a population of 180m.

Those aren't just UN figures; they are everyday people

Look around you, there's poverty everywhere

And you think you've made a point.

Imagine the venom you harbour within! You surely must be one hate-filled, melancholic sadist. You obviously have no joy.

You have just this one life to live, why then live it in negativity and bile-induced mood.

No reasonable human should have faulted his testimony in whatever guise.

Isn't it obvious that his statement/testimony is a piece of inspiration in every way?

Suffice it that you have the right to criticise him, where would you stand when placed side by side with him? Who knows you? How many Pple have you inspired, blessed or given a lift in life?

You find pleasure to grab some keypad and type some shit in some miserable state without thinking of the implication. How sadistic can a person be!

Is the gibberish you typed part of the demonstration of your talent?

The man Frank Edwards has made indelible imprint on the sands of time in the history of Gospel music in Nigeria and some minions like you should think about your life before coming online to claim you have an opinion on what he says or represents.

Gowon Yakubu shared in his facebook page list of achievements by past leaders irrespective of corruption. There was corruption in Nigeria when Awolowo built Cocoa House, TV station and the first university in Africa

There was corruption in Nigeria when IBB built Third Mainland Bridge, built Aso Rock, National Assembly Complex, turned Abuja into our Federal capital territory.

http://www.newslinknaija.com/2018/03/politics-gowon-yakubu-blast-buhari-stop.html

There was corruption in Nigeria when Obasanjo brought Gsm, banking reform, police reform, civil defense, There was corruption in Nigeria when Jonathan introduced BVN and PVC, built 12 new federal universities, revamped railway lines, made Our economy fastest growing in Africa & third in the world.

http://www.newslinknaija.com/2018/03/politics-gowon-yakubu-blast-buhari-stop.html

If anyone tell you the reason Buhari is not working is because he inherited corruption, tell them great leaders don't blame people and events for their failures. They simply accept responsibility and move on. Ask them, what has Buhari done after all the fake promise of fixing power in 6wks, reducing pump price to #45 naira, making N1 equal to a $ 1, stopping Boko Haram etc. It's a shame.

The inferno truth is, corruption started from heaven when Satan violated a privilege given him. That never stop God's works.

He waited for God to create man and brought his lawlessness and corruption into the garden of eden.

God wasn't moved. He introduced a redemption plan. The Savior was born. Sadly, Judas Iscariot was there. 

Not discouraged yet, He gave us God the Holy Spirit.

If anyone tell you the reason Buhari is not working is because he inherited corruption, tell them corruption is rooted in the DNA of homo sapiens ( Latin: wise man ) because we are just mere mortal infected with a virus of good & evil.

Yet, great leaders don't blame people and events for their failures. They simply accept responsibility and move on.

#InecWillNotCountPrayerPointsButVotes. Please, strive and endeavor to collect your PVC.
nice talk from a wise man

Popular Nigerian gospel singer, Frank Edwards, who is known for a series of hit gospel songs, have taken to Instagram to write an emotional note on when he used to sell the popular meal 'Okpa'.

The singer mentioned that he sold okpa for about 10 years and it was always his breakfast and dinner everyday.

Frank Edwards has since gone far beyond poverty as he is obviously living in luxury now and at the same time having great connections within the society as well as in the gospel music scene. He has had collaborations with lots of international artistes, including top gospel singer Don Moen.

Re: Frank Edwards: I Sold 'Okpa' For 10 Years And It Was My Daily Meal by DavidEsq(m): 8:39pm On Mar 24, 2018
God's miracle in our lives is not our climb from penury to wealth. It is how we have used our lives to bring people to repentance. The growth of God's Kingdom does not depend on our wealth; rather it depends on our being able to search deserving hearts and teach them about God's Kingdom. Matthew 24:14 and Matthew 25:15.
It is therefore wrong to show off one' acquired wealth as a measure of one's personality or God's "grace". 1 Timothy 6:17.
