Must we politicise everything, even to the extent of politicking on recharge cards?

Nigeria, always breaking new grounds for others to follow!

I hail thee!

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea

And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.


And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

And he that sat unpon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new........

Empiree:
They are called Alujonu in yoruba. I believe that their narrative in Islam correspond with Yoruba ones. Maybe a slight difference.

It is a pity you really have a vague idea of what you are trying to expound, courtesy of your religion! Before going any step further may I make fact to tell you that the God of the Bible and the god of the quran are NOT the same Hebrews 1:1-14! So now a little bit further, God(Yahweh) created the heavens and the earth, Psalm 24:1 and ONLY three beings namely; Angels, Man and Animals Psalm 8:4-9! Immediately after the rebellion of satan(lucifer) he was cast down to the earth Ezekiel 28:11-19, Revelation 12:10-12! God later made and planted Man and delegated him with AUTHORITY on earth to rule and have dominion as God's ambassadors(Genesis 1:26-31, Psalm 115:16). Man lost his authority to the devil( Genesis 3:1-24) and that is what Jesus came to restore, John 10:10, 1corinthians 15:20-24, Colosians 1:12-21! The devil and other fallen angels that rebelled with him are the ones going about fooling the spiritually gullible up and down! They've been mixing with man right from inception, Genesis 6:1-7, the sons of God referred to in that verse are the fallen angels that kept not their estate, Jude 6, they are all to end up in hell! It is this fallen angels that are behind the op's question, AKUDAYA, magic, esoterics, metaphysics, cultism and other' Christ'less religions of the world e.g Islam, Taoism, Hinduism, Grail Message and other baseless spiritualism! They give visions and spiritual gifts too, Acts 13:6-12, 16:16-19, ! They perform signs and wonders too; even some fake pastors are patronising them! That's why as Christians we are not meant to believe every spirit, but bring them to the forensic analysis of the WORD OF GOD, Isaiah 8:20, 1John4:1-3,!

It has been appointed unto man once to die after which judgement, once a man dies, even a day old baby his spirit returns back to God(the owner)! But the fallen angels(demons or what you may call them in your own theory), makes use of their bodies to fool men! Selah


I pray may the Holy Spirit open your understanding to this salient facts!

Shalom!

Tiredwify:
He said that tonight after a heated argument, he even went as far as beating me up cos I locked his cloth. I asked him about his finances, how he spends money et al. I cant even type it all. I need to speak with matured christian woman. I am totally fed up. Our marriage is less than a year. We dated for two years. Someone should pls help me out. I dont want to leave my child behind. I need help. I am tired. I want a peaceful home and a good husband. Oh Lord, i never bargained for this, Oluwa saanu funmi.

May God heal your home!

I do have a lot to say, but I will just prescribe this books to you!
1. No More two: Gbile Akanni( for couples)
2. Give Me A Drink: Sade Akanni(for You)
3.Dignity of Manhood: Gbile Akanni(Your husband)
4. Look Unto Sarah Who Bore You: Sade Akanni(for you)

U can get those books from any Peace House outlets or any Christian bookstore!

For now, be a woman of few words, and let any words u would alter be salted with humility and selflessness!

This home will stand as long as you want it! Be passionate to see your marriage last!

Bless you!

On what grounds are you faulting the tribunal
that was duly set up by the Buhari-led military
junta to try your dad and several other
politicians of the time?


That’s an interesting question. ‘Duly set up’ ignores
the fact that the Buhari military government itself
was technically illegal and illegitimate. Coups were
defined as treason by the military themselves after
the assassination of Murtala Muhammed in 1976. So,
can an illegal administration ‘duly set up’ anything?
But that’s perhaps an academic argument, but
what’s not in dispute is that the junta had an
agenda. For instance, let’s examine the tribunal and
its processes for one minute. The accused had no
legal representation, in dad’s case, witnesses were
harassed and intimidated (detained & threatened
with prosecution if they didn’t testify against him);
they were not allowed to see any evidence against
them; and the accused were questioned in what can
only be called an abusive manner verging on torture.
Dad, like several others, for instance, was denied
medication for blood pressure and diabetes. That, in
itself, would be grounds to quash any conviction in a
country that has a modicum of justice and strong,
working, legal institutions. Also it seems that the
tribunal (of 3 serving military officers and 1 judge),
was ordered to find dad guilty. A senior member of
the Supreme Military Council, or whatever they called
themselves, from Bendel State intimated that to me
after he had retired from public life. Former vice
president, Alex Ekwueme, also refers to this in his
autobiography: dad, Bisi Onabanjo, Bola Ige, and
Adekunle Ajasin, were announced as being guilty of
the specific offence by Idiagbon before they were
even charged with it. Interesting that dad was the
only politician from Bendel State found guilty and
jailed for any offences (others were detained). Also,
he was tried for several things. Even the tribunal
could not find him guilty of corruptly enriching
himself or any other individual. Rather, he was found
guilty of ‘corruptly enriching his political party’ – and,
unlike what some think, he didn’t give state funds to
the UPN. Rather, a campaign contribution was given
to the UPN treasurer in Bendel State by a contractor
to the Bendel State Government. Dad accepted that
as UPN chairman in the state and the chief executive
of the state he was responsible, even though he
himself did not personally accept or disburse the
money. Dad described the tribunal as a ‘Kangaroo
Court,’ which is what it was. It is interesting to note
that the chairman of the tribunal, General Ndiomu,
had some form in chairing tribunals that gave
verdicts the incumbent dictator wanted. He chaired
the tribunal that sentenced General Vatsa to death
on very flimsy circumstantial evidence, and that’s
being generous. This is not to say that politicians in
the 2nd Republic were not corrupt or that none found
so by any tribunal wasn’t. Even a broken clock is
right twice a day. But dad’s real ‘crime’ (as far as the
junta was concerned), was political. My father’s
establishing the derivation of oil revenue as a
constitutional reality in Nigeria by successfully taking
the FGN to the court to establish fiscal federalism.
Buhari’s views on that are very well known. The 1.5
percent revenue derived is what funded my dad’s
school buildings and public health programmes. If he
had the 13 percent they have today, who knows what
he might have done. Now, do you think he was the
victim of a terrible injustice or not?


Where is the former first lady, widow of the
late former governor, Ambrose Alli?


My mother lives in the UK. She is well, happily retired
and enjoying her grandchildren. She recently turned
70, we thank God.


Why did she relocate and for how long has she
been away?


She relocated for the reasons stated above. She was
forced to by constant harassment. Also, she had
options – for which we thank God.

You said somewhere that your dad does not
need a pardon because he was not guilty of
any crime, meaning he was unjustly convicted
and imprisoned. What else could be done by
government with regards to the conviction?


I said we are loath to accept a pardon because you
pardon the guilty. Accepting a pardon implicitly and
explicitly admits guilt. Again, I am not a lawyer, I
studied geology for a degree, and West African
Politics & Creative Business Management at post-
graduate – but it seems to me, when you examine
the circumstances, that there are grounds to quash
his conviction.


Has your family made any case for a possible
reversal of the judgment that convicted your
dad?


I met with, and wrote formally to the current
Governor of Edo State, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole,
on all these matters a couple of times. So far, despite
a seemingly positive disposition, we have had no
official acknowledgement, response, or action.


Is your family planning a special event to
commemorate your late father’s anniversary?



Next year is the 25th anniversary of his death on
22nd September – it would have been his 85th
birthday. We are examining and exploring doing
something to mark it. But the best thing we can do is
see that he gets justice and has his name cleared. I
would add that if you consider the way dad was
treated and his narrative, it is no wonder that
politicians in Nigeria are the way they are. Would you
rather steal billions and live a comfortable or
luxurious life with your family or serve your people,
die a pauper and leave your family to the tender
mercies of Nigeria?


Could you narrate a bit of what you people
suffered following the death of your father?


I’m sure you’ll appreciate that some of the details are
personal and painful. Our dad was sentenced to 100
years in jail and was there for five years. To get some
idea of what our mother went through, when your
house is ransacked by 30 heavily armed soldiers of
the Nigerian Army, in full combat attire, all your
husband’s properties seized and bank accounts
frozen, you are regularly harassed and questioned by
the security services, perhaps you’ll understand
something of what she experienced under the Buhari
junta. Although she was a senior midwife of over 20
years experience, when she finally had enough and
joined us, the children in exile in the UK, mum had to
start again as a newly qualified midwife. She worked
in the UK National Health Service until she retired a
few years ago. We, children, were lucky that we had
an English grandmother who had the means to help
us go to good schools in the UK.


How did you get over the trauma?


Well, human beings are resilient. It took some time. It
wasn’t until the response we saw at dad’s burial that
we realised the regard and affection the people of the
then Bendel State and Nigeria had for him. Also, we
were taught to try and forgive people who wrong us,
and to believe in justice.

When my work here is done, I need not behold corruption any more! Precious Lord take my soul...

RIP!

Inducted into the WBC hall of fame(the only African) in 2004, Azumah Nelson (born 19 July 1958), a native of
Ghana, is a former professional boxer. He is widely
considered as the greatest African boxer ever.[2][3]
He is a three-time world champion in two weight
classes.
Nelson is the former two-time WBC super
featherweight Champion, and the former WBC
featherweight champion.


Amateur career

Nelson had a stellar amateur career, competing at
the 1978 Commonwealth Games where he won a
gold medal in the Featherweight class, and compiling
an Amateur Record of 50-2.


Professional career

Nelson's professional boxing debut, in 1979, did not
generate much attention, except in Ghana, where he
was known because of his family ties. Internationally,
Nelson lacked the recognition for such an event to be
given its due importance. With the years, however,
all of that changed because he garnered world wide
fame as a boxer.
He beat Billy Kwame in Accra by a decision in eight to
mark his professional debut. In his third fight, he
fought on 3 March 1980, he knocked out Henry
Sadler in the ninth round to win Ghana's regional
126-pound title. On 13 December of that year, he
knocked out Joe Skipper in round 10 to add the
African continent's belt to his Ghanaian regional
championship.
In 1981, Nelson beat Bozzou Aziza in Togo; it was
Nelson's first fight abroad. He then beat Miguel Ruiz
in his first United States fight, held in California. He
added the Commonwealth of Nations' Featherweight
title with a fifth-round knockout of Brian Roberts.
Despite all his early achievements and being
undefeated in 13 fights, Nelson was virtually
unknown outside Ghana.[4] Because of this, he was a
decisive underdog when he challenged WBC
featherweight champion Salvador Sánchez on 21 July
1982 at the Madison Square Garden in New York.[4]
Despite losing that fight by a knockout in round 15,
Nelson's stock as a boxer rose after that fight, and he
established himself as a deserving leading contender
in the eyes of many fans. Further, Nelson was put at
a significant disadvantage when his custom
mouthpiece was stolen and he had to make do with a
makeshift one purchased from a store and cut to his
mouth with a knife, leaving him in pain for the whole
fight. The Sánchez-Nelson fight would be Salvador
Sánchez's last fight, as he died almost two months
later after suffering a car accident in Mexico City.
In his next fight, Nelson knocked out fringe
contender Irving Mitchell in eight rounds.


World featherweight champion

Nelson won all four of his fights in 1983, and he
began 1984 by beating Hector Cortez by decision on
9 March in Las Vegas. Then, on 8 December of that
year, he became boxing royalty by knocking out
Wilfredo Gómez in round 11 to win the WBC
featherweight championship.[5] Behind on the three
judges' scorecards, Nelson rallied in that last round
to become champion in Puerto Rico.
Nelson held on to that title for three years. He could
not fight for 9 months after the Gómez bout, but
when he returned, he retained the title in Miami with
a fifth round knockout of Juvenal Ordenes in
September 1985, and then in October of that year, he
retained it again with a first round knockout of Pat
Cowdell in Birmingham, England. The Cowdell
knockout in particular became a highlight film
material: Cowdell was left frozen on the canvas by
Nelson's knockout punch.
In 1986, he retained the title two times, beating
future world champion Marcos Villasana and former
Barry McGuigan challenger Danilo Cabrera (once
again, in Puerto Rico).
In 1987, Nelson retained the title against Mauro
Guitierrez, by a knockout in round six, and in a
rematch with Villasana, once again, by decision. After
the second fight with Villasana, Nelson abandoned
the WBC title.


Super featherweight

Nelson began 1988 by defeating Mario Martinez by
decision over 12 rounds in Los Angeles to win the
vacant WBC super featherweight title, and then he
defended the title with a knockout in round nine
against former world champ Lupe Suarez, and with a
knockout in three over Sydney Del Rovere.
He proceeded in 1989 by beating Martinez in a
rematch, by knockout in round 12, and then fighting
Jim McDonnell, with exactly the same result. The
fight with McDonnell, fought in London, was
considered one of the fights of the year by many
boxing magazines, and McDonnell was widely
praised by critics for his stand against Nelson.
McDonnell suffered four knockdowns before the fight
was stopped by referee Joe Cortez.
On 19 May 1990, Nelson tried to join the exclusive
group of three-division world champion boxers by
challenging world lightweight champion Pernell
Whitaker, but he was handed his second career loss.
when Whitaker won a 12 round unanimous decision
to retain the title. For his next fight, he went to
Australia to meet the former world Featherweight
champion, Puerto Rico's Juan Laporte. He beat
Laporte by a decision in 12 to retain the world Jr.
Lightweight title.

In 1991, he had only two fights. In Spain, he beat
Daniel Mustapha by a knockout in round four of a
non-title bout, and then, in Las Vegas, he retained
the title with a controversial draw against three-
weight world champion Jeff Fenech. Many ringside
observers and boxing writers felt Fenech had
deserved to win that night, and an immediate
rematch was signed and set for 1 March 1992.
Back in Australia, Nelson defeated Fenech by a
knockout in round eight of their sequel, and then he
retained the title with a 12 round decision over
former world champion Calvin Grove on 7 November.
On 20 February 1993, the world travelling champion
defeated future world champion Gabriel Ruelas by
decision in 12 in front of 120,000 fans (most of whom
had come to watch Julio César Chávez defend his
world title against Greg Haugen in the evening's
main event) in Mexico.[6] The 120,000 fan turnout
was the largest ever for a boxing event. Then, on 10
September, he began his four fights series with
future world champion Jesse James Leija by retaining
the title with a draw as part of the Julio César
Chávez-Pernell Whitaker fight's undercard in San
Antonio. Originally announced as a winner, Nelson
found out minutes later when Leija was being
interviewed that the correct outcome was a draw,
giving Leija a rematch. The fight's announcer had
accidentally mixed the scorecards and announced
Nelson the winner. Even though the decision was
changed to draw, Nelson still kept his title.
On 7 May 1994, he and Leija met for the second
time: That time around, the announcer was right
when he announced Leija was winner and new world
champion. That was Nelson's only bout in 1994.
Leija quickly lost the title to Ruelas, who defended
against Nelson on 1 December 1995, and Nelson
recovered the title in his rematch with Ruelas by
knocking him out in round five.
His first defense took place almost a year later, when
he and Leija had their third bout. Nelson retained the
title with a six round knockout. As had become his
common practice, that was the only time Nelson
fought in 1996.[7]
In 1997, Nelson lost the Lineal & WBC titles to
Genaro Hernandez when beaten on points in twelve
rounds. He was almost disqualified when he
accidentally hit Hernandez in the throat after the bell
to finish round seven and Hernandez lay on the floor
for several minutes. However, Hernandez chose to
continue, allowing Nelson to lose by the more
honorable way of the judge's decision.
In 1998, he lost to Leija in their fourth and final bout
in the lightweight division, but Nelson realized his
best days in boxing were over, and he retired.

Nelson had a record of 39 wins, 6 losses and 2 draws,
with 28 knockout wins.

God bless the Yoruba Nation!

SACK KESHI NOW!!!!!!

The day of reckoning! Pay-day! ... The wicked shall not go unpunished!

The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no God before his eyes.

For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.

The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.
Psalm 36:1-3


Come down and sit in the dust oh daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, oh daughter of the Chaldeans : for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate.

Take the millstones, and grind meal; uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers.


Thy unclothedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man!
Isaiah 47:1-3

God knows!
