It would be Jesus himself.

He is wise, he knows how to balance a situation.


He is consistent, he is powerful, yet humble. He could have been anything he wanted to be, but he choose to be committed and to serve.

He conducted himself as a servant. The first time i read the bible as a child, it was the story of Jesus that kept me at my toes, and then i almost cried during his crucifixion, and then after his death i was longing for his return. It is the story of Jesus that gives an anchor, a firm hope etc.

If there is anyone that can make everything alright, its Jesus. And my hope is high, Jesus could come this year, and we are are alive and remain, will be caught up in the air, to meet God in the clouds.

We are going up soon, hopefully.

BELOW IS WHAT AYO FAYOSE HAS TO SAY ON PETER OBI PRESIDENCY;
I love Igbos but I have to tell them the truth because I love them.
It is now a law to transmit votes electronically, that means rigging of elections has been reduced drastically.
Igbos are only tribe that have 99% of voters in the South East and second highest voters in other regions in Nigeria.
In the South West, after Yoruba votes, Igbo votes come second. Lagos has the highest number of voters in Nigeria and Igbos are competing with Yorubas in voting power in Lagos.
In the South South, we have indigenous Igbos in the South South and all the major cities in the South South are occupied by Igbos. Go to Port Harcourt you will understand what I mean.
In the North Central, go to Jos and all the state capital in the North Central, Igbos are the second largest population after the indigenous people.
In the North West, go to Kano and Kaduna and you will know that Igbos are the second largest population after indigenous people.
In the North East, go to Maidugri and all the state capitals, Igbos are the second largest tribe after the indigenous people.
Go to federal capital territory Abuja, Igbos are the largest population in Abuja today.
*If Igbos truly want to determine who will rule this country today, they will but they only sit back and lament without any action.*
*Peter Obi is the most qualified candidate to rule this country but Igbos are not with their voters card.*
*GO AND GET YOUR PVC TODAY!!!*
*AYODELE FAYOSE.......

OtemAtum:
The BOOK OF UNIVERSAL HISTORY got your back in this.

Common Era 22:12-33

12. This is the true story of my life, to Roboam my son alone have I written this, to make known the exact truth concerning me, Solomon his father. When I, Solomon, the king of the little Kingdom of Israel have sent men to count the number of people in my kingdom, after the death of David my father, they brought me number.
13. They said, there are 2,505 men and 2,671 women in the whole of the kingdom, with 4,914 children. Altogether, the population of the land is 10,090 people.
14. Now I called all the wise men of the land together and said, tell me, how can we make the kingdom of Judah seem great, even greater than Aksum where their population is about 80,000 people at this time?
15. Now the wise men said, we might be unknown at this time o king, but if we write a history of our land, according to our own wish, then in the future, we shall be made known in the way we portray ourselves.
16. Remember the histories and legends which that great man Moses left for us about the departure of Israel from Egypt. Although we have checked and have found that the stories of that man Moses, who was also called Yahweh, was not true, yet we made it a tradition and our belief.
17. And now Yahweh has replaced El as the Almighty God in the minds of everyone in Israel. For we know that Moses spoke of leading about a million Israelites out of Israel, but here we have but just about 10,000 Israelites.
18. Where are the children and descendants of the other thousands of people? By this we know that the stories passed down to us are mere exaggerations and lies, but we still believe them.
19. Now let us write large histories for Israel and make our kingdom a hundred times larger in that history, so that those in the future shall read of the things which we have written concerning ourselves and regard us as great people.
20. Then they shall make us great by themselves.
21. Now I your father considered these things and agreed with them, saying, let books of histories be written concerning this land Israel. Let us be regarded greater than the Syrians, Egyptians, Hivites, Hittites, Aksumites and all surrounding lands in our histories.
22. I Solomon shall write also books and words of wisdom, for I know how to do such things. I shall bring famous people under me and make them appear inferior to me.
23. I shall make Israel seem greater than all these lands in the matter of wars, civilization and even population.
24. Now I Solomon and my people set aside one year to write false histories, from the end of the books of Moses and Joshua till the present time. And we wrote according to our abilities.
25. And we wrote the Chronicle of this land Israel, wherein we added numbers from time to time to make our land seem great before those who should read them in the future.
26. Now I discovered that I could write words of wisdom, so I began to do so. And I wrote more than a thousand words of wisdom.
27. Now also, I thought, saying, there is wisdom in inflating the numbers of wives and concubines which I have. For I have seven wives and three concubines. And one of my concubines is your mother, for I brought her into the house to be one of my wives after she gave birth to you.
28. Now Roboam my son, if you read the Chronicles of the kings of this land Israel, you shall see that it is recorded that I have 700 wives and 300 concubines. This is falsehood. For I made the truth seem a hundred times more than it really is.
29. My father David left no book for me, but I hired the service of a chief musician from Gilgal named Asaph. And he said to his choir, let us make songs for Solomon the king. Let it be known as the Psalms of David his father, because king Solomon has promised us lands and slaves in the land of Israel.
30. So Asaph and his choir wrote many songs to be known as the Psalms of David my father.
31. As for me, I have made myself the wisest of all men and kings on earth, according to the stories of the Chronicles. For I wrote the Queen of Saba as one who submitted to me. And if the famous Queen of Saba is written as such, then in the future, tell me how I shall not be regarded even greater than her?
32. Also, I commanded that an ark should be constructed, so that the story of Moses and Joshua about a certain mysterious ark which none of us knew of could appear real. And I have commanded the construction of a temple.
33. Now Roboam my son, when you shall become the king, make sure writers are not lacking around you. For they shall write according to your wish and whatever is written shall stand.

Do you have this book in PDF or other electronic copy? If yes, kindly help me with a copy, please. My email: kemeticphilosophy@gmail

Indeed, when anybody begin studying history of religions outside the bible, they'll be shocked that the so called Jews were of no significance in ancient history. Even their god Yahweh is modern, whereas in the bible Yahweh appears to be the first god known to humanity. Our people don't realize that the god of whom ever is in power would always be the most powerful god.

Some fact about Peter Obi.

1. The only governor that refused to use bullet prove cars as a governor.

Supposing this claim is true, is that supposed to be the quality of a good leader?

Did Obi not once order bullet-proof vehicles when the politics of Anambra became hot?

What is bad in using bullet-proof cars as governor?

Even Goodluck Jonathan who campaigned with "I had no shoes" later became a president traveling with 9 private jets all at once.

2. He refused to collect pension after ruling as a governor till date.

How many states have pension schemes for past governors?

And supposing all states have pension schemes for governors, what is wrong in receiving pension? You might as well tell retired civil servants to stop receiving pension just to appear saintly or good.

Also, it must be noted that Obi never claimed that he rejected pension. Rather, he said he had never received a kobo from Anambra. Perhaps, they didn't offer him pension.

3. He refused official car and allowances as SEC chairman.

Yet again, was is wrong with using official cars or enjoying allowances tied to a job?

Rejecting an official car is a personal issue, and it has absolutely nothing to do with integrity or lack of greed.

4. He was impeached as a governor for being stingy .

He was impeached for being stingy or for being a poor administrator?


5. He paid all gratuity, pension, salaries all his tenure and cleared backlog.

A false claim that has been debunked by Obaino.

That was how he lied that he left over 70 billion for Obaino, when it was in fact a debt of 102 billion naira that he left for Obaino.

6. He paid #50,000 to 70years and above monthly in Anambra.

For what services did he pay these people? I thought they said he was prudent.

8. He gave #1m to every first class graduate in his state.

Supposing this claim is true, what is the economic value of this?

9. He travels round without police till today.

And what is the relevance of this? Would he not travel in a convoy when he becomes president?

10. When he was about to hand over he called ICPC and EFCC to audit his account.

So, how come he was later exposed in Pandora Papers?

He is a human, and no human is without stain but honestly I never see a politician like him.

There is nothing extraordinary about him.

In fact, Buhari has better claims at integrity than him.

Buhari had the opportunity of becoming GCFR as Head of State, but he refused to assign himself the honor, and waited till he won an election to do so?

Buhari does not have any hidden luxury properties like Obi. There is no chance that any investigative journalist will uncover hidden luxury mansions belonging to Buhari. But Pandora has exposed Obi as no different from every other politician.

Abacha was another one. He refused to jump any rank, preferring to earn all his stripes.

Of course, Caesar and Pilate existed but it doesn't mean that Jesus existed. Why?

Because Jesus is a fictional character cast into a historical setting. Just like saying that spiderman visited Nigeria during the Abacha administration and was flying through tall buildings in Lagos metropolis. That's exactly how Jesus was cast in the bible.

The purpose of the authors is to convince you that Jesus is a real person. And you'll never discover the fraud unless you check history.

My brother, there is no time to argue, Jesus is telling people that he will come soon. Please please, Jesus wants all to come to him, because he will take us up, before the great day of the Lord and the seven year tribulation.

God loves every person and Jesus is coming soon ( i think this year, some say in July, some in October) !!. I myself i am experiencing some signs, and i am not the religious type.

Salvation is a choice and accepting what Jesus has done for us, on the cross, and accepting the gift of God, and trusting in the creator.
