PoliticsRe: Opposition Slams APC As "Hungry’ Residents Storm Bourdillon For Palliatives by Ankakh: 2:46pm On Dec 27, 2024
treesun:
“I have always been of the opinion, and I seem to feel it, that this Presidency, as led by Bola Tinubu, has weaponised poverty and hunger to the point that Nigerians need to beg with a pleading hand to survive. And the man has reduced the dignity of the common man to the pauper state, where they lack basic dignity and self-sufficiency. So, people have to resort to begging.

https://punchng.com/opposition-slams-apc-as-hungry-residents-storm-bourdillon-for-palliatives/
These policies should have being unveiled in phases. Not all at the same time. The level of begging on the street is no joke. From Lagos to Taraba, and from Sokoto to Cross River, it's too obvious.

May God have mercy.

Useful enough to get you into those Western countries.

PoliticsRe: Tinubu’s Media Chat Lacks Humanity, Says Bode George by Ankakh: 7:37pm On Dec 25, 2024
ijustdey:
“I want to advise Bola Tinubu that leadership is not by pumping and bashing people. It is not a military administration. You and Buhari said that the people supported you. Do you pay them back? You say yes you won’t go back, you won’t do this. Which kind of political administration will do that? Listen to the people.”

https://dailytrust.com/tinubus-media-chat-lacks-humanity-says-bode-george/
And some say leadership is still not the problem in Africa.

May God have mercy on Nigeria!

chairmanawe:
“It was an unfortunate situation. I won’t blame the organisers of the event, because it is a gesture they have been doing over the years as a way of helping the members of the community to put a smile on their faces during Yuletide. But this one turned out to be like this.

“It was impatience on the part of the people and poor crowd control that contributed to the incident. I learnt that the security operatives battled to control the surging crowd who forced entry into the premises.

https://punchng.com/i-warned-my-wife-against-going-for-food-distribution-anambra-husband/
Very unfortunate.

And the FG is saying it's not their policies that is causing these issues.

May God have mercy on the souls that are lost.

President Bola Tinubu has justified the frequent borrowings under his administration.

Source: https://dailypost.ng/Presidential-media-chat-Borrowing-not-criminal-Tinubu
We know that borrowing is not criminal. What we need to know is how previously borrowed funds (from this Admin) has been used.

We can't continue to borrow and use our revenue to fund politician's lifestyle. It's not sustainable.
EducationRe: FG Commits ₦‎180 Billion To Agric Varsities, Research Institutes In 2025 by Ankakh: 10:03pm On Dec 23, 2024
PressMyButton:
“The essence of establishing the University of Agriculture is to engage in food production so that food can be sold to the populace at subsidized rates."

President Tinubu emphasised his administration’s commitment to security and infrastructure in his budget speech, stating, “This budget will ensure we secure peace and rebuild prosperity.”

https://punchng.com/fg-commits-n180bn-to-agric-varsities-research-institutes-in-2025/?

Security is very important before wasting investment (again) on agricultural institutes.

Private and public investment have been wasted by "herdsmen" for the past 5 years. When the land is secured, investment is bound to rise.

Come to think of it. All within this new administration, just about 18 months and the increase is like 4-6x. It's not normal.

And yet, we want to attack inflation.

Police now arguing with Amnesty international on their own version of report. Do Police have trust with the Nigerian masses talkless with the international community to even do a contradiction? But hey, agenda must agend.
PoliticsRe: FG Absolves Tinubu’s Reforms From Stampedes Over Foodstuffs by Ankakh: 12:03pm On Dec 23, 2024
iwaeda:
Idris said the reforms, while repositioning the Nigerian economy for sustainable growth, were designed to uplift the lives of all Nigerians, particularly the vulnerable without causing distress.

https://dailytrust.com/fg-absolves-tinubus-reforms-from-stampedes-over-foodstuffs/
Oga minister, you try well well. You're doing your job.

And as citizens, our job is to also let you know that even though it has happened in the past, the past is the past. Current situation has led to serious hunger in the land directly causing distress for that same vulnerable you tend to go on about.

More so, how can citizens understand when huge funds are dedicated to feeding the president (who says he's already rich and does not need Nigerian money) and bogus line items in the budget for things that should not be said in public. That's adding insult upon injury.
PoliticsRe: Police Arrest Tiktoker, Seaking For Insulting President Tinubu, Sanwoolu, IGP by Ankakh: 11:59am On Dec 23, 2024
Let's not lie. Let's not steal. There is no reason why anyone should insult another on social media. You're just setting up yourself for issues with law enforcement. They can twist it any-which-way. See what Ben Hundeyin is saying already.

On the other hand, public criticism should be allowed as long as it does not lead to insults and curses.

Cos once criticism is muddled up with insults, bad actors will have a field day.

The Houthis, an Iran-backed rebel group that controls north-western Yemen, began attacking Israeli and international shipping shortly after the start of the Gaza war in October 2023, saying they were acting in solidarity with Palestinians.

Unfortunate accident but Iran keeps doing the most with their proxies. From Hamas to Hezbollah to Houthis.

By the way, is H a thing for Iran? Anyways, they keep using proxies to avoid direct confrontation.

What does that tell us? Iran does not want a war.

Second, some others called him that he's a coward for removing it.

Third, they have now placed another countroversial one.

Christianity EtcRe: How Do You React To Suffering As A Believer by Ankakh: 11:08am On Dec 22, 2024
gohf:
Here are some of the words shared in the new testament concerning suffering

Let's also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces endurance; and endurance, character; and character, hope. (Paul; Romans 5:3-4)

It is an opportunity to rejoice when trouble and trials come your way, for the testing of your faith produces endurance, and when you have suffered long you will develop strong character, becoming mature perfect and complete ready for anything. (James; James 1:2-4)


Look humble yourselves under God's mighty hand and He will lift you up at the right time, stop being anxious for what you want and cast your cares upon Him for He cares for you. Better be careful at this point in your life because your enemy the devil is looking for whom to devour, so resist him by standing firm in faith, with knowledge that you are not alone, knowing that all over the whole your brothers and sisters in Christ are suffering as well.
And knowing that this suffering won't last forever, let's have this hope, for the God of all grace who called us to His eternal glory through Christ Jesus will restore, strengthen and perfect us after we have suffered a while. (Peter; 1 Peter 5:6-10)

Blessed and happy are the humble who are patient for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who suffer persecution because of righteousness for theirs is the kingdom of God, happy you should be when you are insulted, mocked and accused because you are my followers, rejoice and be glad for great will be your reward in heaven. (Jesus; Matthew 5:3-12)


What are you suffering for the sake of Christ rejoice because (Rom.8.18) *For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.*

1Pet.4.15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people's matters. (NKJV)

1Pet.4.16 If anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter.


Jesus speaking about new convert Saul, Acts.9.16 - For I will show him how many things he must suffer for My name's sake."


1Pet.4.15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people's matters.


Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. (1 Peter 4:12-14)



Why are some believers so much against suffering?
Why do some see others who suffer as sinners, like Job's friends did to him?

Forgetting 1Cor.12.26 - And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

Why do some who claim to follow Jesus who suffered say because he suffered we are not meant to suffer?

Phil.1.29 For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake,...

1Pet.4.1 So then, since Christ suffered physical pain, you must arm yourselves with the same attitude he had, and be ready to suffer, too. For if you are willing to suffer for Christ, you have decided to stop sinning.
(Heb.12.4 In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.)


If love suffers, why do some say they love but can't suffer for another, is their love cold or real?
1Cor.13.4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;

2Cor.1.7 And our hope for you is steadfast, because we know that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you will partake of the consolation.

even the fruit of the Holy Spirit you are to bear as believers includes long suffering
Gal.5.22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,...


Prayer Point Today
Father your mighty hand upon my life will make me and not break me. Today I come before you to say thank you, for your training and the treasures that await me at the end.
God bless you!
