Now this is an achievement, having millions in cash and numerous investments without imparting lives is not. God bless you immeasurably!
having millions and investments is an achievement.you say gathering wealth isn't an achievement?

Impacting lives is a personal decision.you chose to do it or not,it's not an indication of one's achievements.


You can also impact lives without dropping a kobo.

Why do they abandon kids like that in that part of the country in the name of being witches and wizards? It is too rampant, it is still the same way just like 18 years ago

And who says God would not continue to bless Americans? These people would leave their comfort zones and come to Africa to render selfless help. Then first time I stepped my feet onto the American soil over 15 years ago for The first time , i asked myself, if the earth could be this beautiful with such loving set of people,i wonder how would heaven look like. My success today is linked to the american people whom God used to help me, not minding my roots and background. I met a white man in California at an exhibition and I told him my plans and projects in Nigeria. This man took it up, not minding the risks involved. He supported me with all I needed and taught me to do same , not hoping to expect anything in return. I was glad to know that his company is among the best 400 in then world as Forbes announced this man as one of the new comers on the world's billionaires list.

Here in Africa, especially in nigeria, we are so selfish and wicked and that's why most of their investments hardly outlive them. Where the poor guy now a doctor hails from, there would be governor, senator, local government chairman, councillors who were busy heaping money into their accounts without thinking of people like him. Until we begin to learn how to show love in this country, we shouldn't expect any development. We're merely deceiving ourselves.

A Nigerian Based American Lady, Melissa, shares a Touching story of a Nigerian boy who she picked on the street 18 years Ago (abandoned with a disease) she took care of him, treated, trained him in school, now he is a medical Doctor.

Read Her testimony Below;

Guys! I am so excited!!!!! This last week my “adopted” brother became Dr Paul.



Our family first met Anejodo Paul in a small remote village in central Nigeria about 18 1/2 years ago.

I remember my heart breaking when I saw this kid under a tree swatting flies away from the raw and open tissue on his leg that had been caused by a flesh eating bacteria.

Many months later, through the kindness of a donor in the U.S., he was brought to the SDA Hospital in Ile-Ife for treatment of his buruli ulcer related disease and complications.

Over a year later, he came home to live with our family so that, at 13 years of age, he could start school. Did I mention he was 13 and starting first grade?

And this week, he got the news that he has passed his final medical school exams.

Thanks to MANY miracles from God, the medical care provided by doctors at the SDA Hospital in Ile-Ife, Nigeria, the support of many who contributed to cover his school fees, and other needs through the years, his own persistence in spite of MANY obstacles, he is now Dr. Paul!!!

We are all so proud of you, Paul! And I can’t wait to see where God continues to take you on this crazy journey he has had you on.

Same thing madonna did by adopting 6 orphans or abandoned children from Malawi. Today those children are living a life reserved for prince and Princesses.
How many of our billionaires will agree to adopt an orphan. Even their relative's children are living in abject poverty.

That's why the whites are progressing, while the blackman is retrogressing. We are selfish, greedy and unpassionate. Even our so called religiousity is for selfish personal reasons and nothing to do with love and compassion.
