This question has been on my mind lately, I watch how things happen so fast and wonder if these things are actually in accordance with the person of Christ and what the Bible says.

It’s mind bugging that Nigeria is a very religious society but our practices outside these religious temples are quite the opposite what the books say. I can understand if a Muslims does certain things as they are not aware of the truth but it’s very baffling when those who claim to be follow Christ act certain ways.

Our mission as believers is to live out the person of Christ, take action as he would. We have to Bible for us to learn about his person, and the Holy Spirit to teach us his character so we do not deviate. Sadly enough, the person of Jesus is absent in our society. Our society realistically reflects the person of Satan.

This question should never even come to life but it has to because people are more easily influenced by others than focus on biblical information.

Jesus shows us an exceptional character we must put up in the face of oppression. In fact, the apostles being led by the Holy Spirit continued this character by being obedient till death. The Bible has many apostles telling us that we must obey the government and explained that we must do so in reverence to God so that we might silent noise makers.

Sadly people do not care about Jesus whenever it’s time to lash out at the president or anyone in office, or engage in protest against lawful authority as contrary to biblical instructions. In fact, many religious leaders are in the habit of inciting the people against the government as a show of their spiritual identity. These things are all works of flesh according to Galatians 5:20.

Protest whether lawful or unlawful are a demonstration against lawful authority and it doesn’t in anyway represent Christ in us. While we may not endorse the behavior of people in office, it’s important that we see them as playing their part to help us actualize our destiny in Christ. Protest is a satanic nature and it should not be a part of a person who claims to follow Christ.

Someone should rush her to hospital, it wouldn't cost anything to gather people around and seek medical attention before even posting this news.

In Nigeria, such good samaritans might end up being arrested…
Best to first get police or Neighborhood Corps personnel involved.

One thing I have lenght over time is to treat things like this with suspicion. A lot of people are profiting from insecurity and fears of people. Don't be surprised if this was written by someone isn't even Fulani.
I repeat, treat things with no known source with suspicion because it could be anyone that has ulterior motive.
We only have one Nigeria. Peace is all we need right now

GREAT minds think alike…

You are probably more fustrated by your fellow vagina people and just forming solidarity online

No need for a long story, I got married 2 yrs ago, during our friendship I mean courtship it was very sweet and lovely, we got married 2 yrs ago and I have 1 kid.

The problem I have is that, the girl's family come to greet almost every time and when they come they eat like elephant, anything eatable they eat it, they don't use eyes to see bread tea or butter in my room, they will finish it within a day, I will end up spending a lot during the time, when I noticed that it becomes offen i started telling my wife that I am broke, I don't have money. Although my wife is very nice she earns salary of 40k a month, and do funds and cook many times with her money.

Before now I was it okay, we are like a family, now i just realized that it is making me not think straight within a week oil and cooking things we bought will just finished the cartoon of indomitable that last the 2 of us before 1 month or month plus will just finish within 4 days of thier stay, some time 3 of her family will come once and another set will come again, my wife is the first daughter, the poor parents gave birth to 9 kids all in the name of looking for a boy, so she said although the 2 boys are number 7 and 9 position, her parents should be around man 60s and the woman 45yrs old. so now I am tired of the marriage, I don't know how to talk to my wife about it, that I don't like how thier family do come offend since we got married, my families has never come to sleep over in my place for a night talkless of spending holiday in my place my parents gave birth to only 3 of us 2 boys 1 girl.

Now i am just tired I can't be responsible for someone else burden why give birth to many kids and unable to train them, i plan to have only 2 or 3 kids only, and her family want to make me be like thier father sitting at home doing nothing depending on pension for survival, i have realized that I can't achieve what i should have achieved if i continue life this way.

Before our marriage, we agreed no family members is coming to stay with us, the issue now is they don't stay but come to eat and go, it's a big cheating to me I am tired for real, even if I say I don't have money and she use her own. The money should have be able to do other important thing . She spending is also affecting me a lot, we should have been able to buy land or car or live well, not feeding battalion. I am tired please I need advice on what to do.

Dude, you have deeper problems if you want to end your marriage over food…
Shame most Nigerians do not do therapy, because the food is merely a SYMPTOM here.

Cleric Behind The Prophetic Emergence Of BBNaija Winner, Apostle Kingrich, Reveals Danger In Olamide's Music Career

Abuja-based Cleric, famously known for his prophesy on the emergence of Big Brother Lockdown Edition Laycon, barely days into the kickoff of the popular reality TV Show, Apostle Kingrich and Founder of Wealthy Nations Ministry, has yet again revealed the danger which one of Nigeria's famous musical artist may encounter in his Career, if necessary interventions are not engaged to avert the foreseen disaster.

Apostle Kingrich revealed profoundly in a short video few hours ago that popular Nigerian Afro hip hop recording artist, Olamide Gbenga Adedeji, famously known as "Baddo" or "BaddoSneh" may encounter a serious danger in his career. While describing the revelation, Apostle Kingrich narrated that Olamide have been summoned by a woman in the marine world, with a mission to ensure a complete crash in music career.

He however called on the fans, lovers, those who believes in his musical career success and the nation in entirety for crucial prayers for the young popular Hip-hop Artist, whose potentials are yet in explosion. Apostle Kingrich stressed that the fame of Olamide is already crashing and the need for immediate prayers from his loved ones is imminent in salvaging the Nigerian Artist from his recent spiritual entanglements.


Over the years, Apostle Kingrich has remained a renowned global Prophet, an Oracle of God, sent to emancipate people and deliver them from captivity, save the heartbroken and also to release salvation to people. He further noted that he is would continue to pray for Olamide, with a believe that his message will bring deliverance to his career.

Guy don't defend the indefensible. Gej enjoyed so much oil windfall during majority of his admin. He not only earned N51T naira from oil alone, but also depleted our foreign reserve from $43B to $27B. Despite his so much being credited with assembing the best technocrats. If Gej hadn't plummeted our FR, our economy could HV withstood the recession of 2015. Many Nigerians condemning PMB fail to understand that there is correlation btw ur foreign reserve and value of the naira. Whether we accept it or not PDP really looted Nigeria into economy doom. Now PMB is building infrastructures here and there despite paucity of funds, but he is the villain cos he refused to share money and give out juicy appointments to particular people.

The value of your local currency has little or NO correlation with economic strength…
Kuwait’s currency is over 3x the strength of the dollar, while the Japanese Yen trades at over 110 to the dollar.

Furthermore, Nigeria could always do a “Ghana” which simply deleted 3 zeros from its cedi…
Only reason Nigerians obsess over currency valuation is that we import virtually everything, an indictment of our economic capacity.

Meanwhile, while the economic recession of 2015 was inevitable (it affected ALL commodity producers)…
Buhari’s economic illiteracy/inertia WORSENED AND PROLONGED it. Many countries in a similar position quickly turned things around.

Bishopsgate:
lol!!!

Why not tell us when this project started, how much has been spent prior to CBN's intervention, what happened to the World bank loans and how long it has been under construction?

Do you know how many countries started construction after us that have completed theirs years back?

The project is a good one but has been used to milk taxpayers' money for too long

Except that Lagos is not a country…
Harder for a sub national to raise capital compared to sovereigns.

Further, massive infrastructure projects can be difficult to execute for various reasons…
Even New York City in a developed economy took DECADES to complete its Second Ave line.

Let’s just be glad to see continuous progress…
Even delays can be a blessing in disguise (eg, better technology, better rolling stock, etc.).

Officialgarri:
When it comes to infrastructure, give it to this APC government.

Despite the oil price drop, the debts, economic crisis and all, there are toooooo many evident projects

Can we say same about a government who had oil at over $100 per barrel of oil? Yet today, all we hear Reno Omokiri saying is "we started it. We brought the idea"

Lagos has always done well on infrastructure (even before the APC was formed)…
Nonetheless, agree that the APC government has done well on rail infrastructure (but no different on electricity, housing, etc.).

Borrowing money to compensate for lower oil revenue isn’t really great economic wizardry…
It’s our generation and our kids (and their kids) who’ll pay for these projects, because the government couldn’t expand its revenue base!
