Stupid president that would say he doesnt care much about the igbos. Nigerian youths are lazy. My people are senseless, my people are useless, my people are indisciplined. I never hear that one before oh.
Na ANIMAL talk be that..
Plus Elrufai and his foolish entitled children too.
Many many years ago, while the west were busy empowering and building a better world for themselves with our blood, sweat and tears the great Oba of Benin embarked on a mission of jealousy. His greatest achievement was to set his disabled servant up to seduce and sleep with the beautiful beloved wife of his trusted high chief Oliha.
Who knows what our great Oba has up his sleeves now that he has resigned his duties and responsibilities to the God's.
If its not madness, tell me how you can manage cashflow in an economy where you pay lawmakers in millions and cant afford to pay 30,000 minimum wage. What happens to the unemployed in such a country?
Nigerians are either the most docile psople on earth, or the most peace loving.

Having lived in Aba in the 90s, i can state catigorically that if our Almangiri federal government had invested 1/10 of their ruga energy in Aba, Nigeria would far ahead of so many asian countries today.
Education is power, our Boko Haram government dont want us to wise up. Thats why they our countries education system in in shits.
Nothing works in Nigeria, still we have to resort to things like this.. I dont know how to put it, this doesnt seem right to me. To think that everyone seems to be cool with this.....
Whats up with CBN in Nigeria? This is bad vibes. Bad, bad vibes.
nelsonoba: don't worry bros, I like your outward courage and appearance of boldness. I hope you will still maintain this same level of courage when you die and stand before Jesus to be judged for eternity.
I only wish this your boldness was real, but you and I know that inside of you, you're as weak as jelly, but outside you have to sound the opposite to cover your internal weakness. You don't surprise me bros
The hight of weakness right here. I used to be so afraid, just like you.
The wonders of poverty.
This believe sums up how you live your life. Waiting for the castaway super Jew to come save you. The more i think about it, the more i hate religion. Love is the answer my G.
nelsonoba: ......and that exactly is how you keep perpetuating your gross ignorance! Lucifer will never allow you read it, because if you mistakingly read it with an open mind, you will end up questioning the lies and deceit Lucifer had sold to you all along. Your case is not new. I have seen so many of your type before......including cultists who mistakingly attended our church meeting because they were tracking somebody to hit, and in the process of sitting in church and hearing the truth of the gospel, they realized they had been fooled all along and today they are saved in Christ and now preaching the gospel to other people.
As for your Edo gods who you were fed with lies to make you believe they created the world, I just need to let you know that those are all lies. They are no gods. They are mere demons and evil spirits parading as gods to deceive people. I BIND AND CAST THEIR TYPE AWAY ON A REGULAR BASIS, SO THEY ARE USELESS gods.
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery. SALVATION IS PERSONAL. I feel so sorry for you.
Live your life, work hard to build your heaven on earth. Show love to the needy and less privileged. Be the best you can. No white man is coming to take you to paradise, trust me.
The fear of the afterlife has got you spell bound. I was once like you. Hopefully you see the light at some point, I'm positive you would eventually.
nelsonoba: This is more or less from a response I gave to somebody yesterday who was felt the bible is not a book of truth, and he had asked to know why God of the old testament was such a "wicked God that would tell Israel to go to war and wipe out other nations", and why he apparently seemed to have lowered his standards in the new testament by no longer demanding for christians to go and kill other nations like he told the Jews in old testament. His second question was, how come we have so many races and tribes and languages today if what the bible claims is true that we all came from the same Adam & Eve who in his own words "must have been arabs". Lastly, If the bible is true that God is the same yesterday, today and forever, then why did the God of the old testament look different from the God of the new testament who no longer tells people to go and kill other nations?
Let's explore some answers below to see if the bible is really accurate, and if the facts are right, then it should give every non-believer a cause to rethink why they are not born again, because if the bible says Jesus is the only way to salvation, then it must be right also, and there will be no need wasting time and delaying your surrender to Christ. Because as the same bible says, Heaven is real and hell is real, and only your personal relationship with Christ can save you when you die and face judgement for where you will spend eternity.
THE ANSWERS BELOW
1) God did not change, neither did He lower His standards. The same God of the old testament is the same God of the new testament. The only difference is that according to John 1:17 Jesus came with GRACE & TRUTH in the new testament. God's law clearly states it that THE SOUL THAT SINS SHALL DIE. THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH. In the old testament, there was no propitiation for sin, except among the Jews who understood about animal sacrifices, which were not a solution but a temporary reprieve for the consequences of their sins. Other nations in the old testament were deeply involved in sin, especially idolatry which even God himself gave a law to Moses, saying that any Israelite caught in idolatry should be put to death for that sin.
All the nations and tribes that God commanded the israelites to kill and wipe out were idolatrous nations that refused to worship the true creator. God did not create double standards when it comes to sin, and that was why if the israelites worshipped idols, they got the same punishment that God asked them to mete out to the other idol-worshipping nations too. So, in short form, God asked those nations you referred to to be killed because of their sins, not because God was just a wicked God trying to kill innocent people.
If you read Psalms 24:1 "The earth is the LORD’s, and the fullness thereof, the world and all who dwell therein." This clearly tells you that God owns the earth and all the human beings living on it, and as such, he can do whatever he pleases with them, and NOBODY CAN QUERY HIM. If you yourself owns a piece of land in your village, you can decide to build any kind of house you like on it, or you could even decide to use it for farming instead. And even if you had a building on that land, you can as well decide to pull it down, and nobody has a right to query you for what you choose to do with your property. THAT IS HOW IT IS WITH GOD AND THE EARTH. HE OWNS EARTH, HE OWNS THE LIVES OF ALL WHO LIVE ON EARTH, SO HE CAN CHOOSE TO DO WHATEVER HE DECIDES AND NOBODY CAN STOP HIM!
Murder is a sin, only because no man has the ability to give life, and as such no man should have the right to take away an innocent life. Just as robbery is a sin because you don't have the right to take away a property that does not belong to you. By that law, if you kill a man, it is wrong because you didn't give that man his life and so you have no right to take it, BUT IF GOD KILLS, IT IS RIGHT BY EVERY STANDARD BECAUSE THAT LIFE IN THE FIRST INSTANCE BELONGS TO HIM, SO HE HAS EVERY RIGHT TO TAKE IT BACK IF HE SO CHOOSES.
In the new testament, it might appear to you as though God lowered his standards, but the truth is he didn't. The only difference that makes it appear so to you is just the fact that Jesus came to die on the cross to pay for the sins of man which had to be punished. The Grace that came with the death and resurrection of Jesus is what provides the legal ground for God to forgive sins if there is repentance. That same Grace is what provides the legal ground for God to delay judgement on sin for a much longer time so that every sinner will have an opportunity to repent before judgement hits. Because according to John 3:17-18
"17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. 18 Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son."
So God does not take pleasure in sinners being judged and condemned, and that is why He gives a long opportunity to people to repent before they die and go to hell in judgement. As you can see, even people who blaspheme the name of God like @badman007 are still walking about freely and enjoying God's free oxygen just because of that same Grace that came with Jesus Christ. If it were in the old testament when there was no grace available for all, he may have been blasted by thunder and lightening during one of his regular blaspheming sessions.
2) To your second question about different races on earth if we all had come from the same Adam & Eve, the bible clearly states the answer in Genesis 10:25 "25 Eber had two sons. The first was named Peleg (which means “division”), for during his lifetime the people of the world were divided into different groups. His brother’s name was Joktan."
So, in Genesis 10:25, the bible clearly states that the earth divided into different PEOPLE GROUPS(RACES), and in Genesis 11:1, the bible still states that the whole earth still had one language(even though they had been divided into races at this time), but if you read further about the story of the tower of Babel in the same chapter 11, from verse 5
"5 But when the LORD came down to look at the city and the tower, 6 he said: These people are working together because they all speak the same language. This is just the beginning. Soon they will be able to do anything they want. 7 Let's go down and confuse them! We'll make them speak different languages, and they won't be able to understand each other.
8-9 So the people had to stop building the city, because the LORD confused their language and scattered them all over the earth. That's how the city of Babel+ got its name."
So these should answer your questions as to how God created one man and one woman, but today the earth has many races and languages. I have not found any other record of these outside of the bible.
3) I could give you a few more evidence to show you how accurate and true the word of God is; a) ROUND EARTH THEORY Long before the 17th century when scientists started discovering facts to prove that the earth was spherical, the bible had already written it that the earth was of a spherical and not a flat shape. Read Isaiah 40:22
"22 He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in."
Thousands of years ago, when people thought the earth was flat, the bible already recorded the earth to have a circular shape.
b) EARTH SUSPENDED IN SPACE When do you think scientists were able to prove that the earth was floating in space and not hanging on some kind of pillars? Your guess is as good as mine. Probably sometime in the 18th or 19th or 20th century. But thousands of years ago, when there were all sorts of myths about the earth being hung on something, the bible had already recorded that the earth was hanging in space. Read Job 26:7
"7 God stretches the northern sky over empty space and hangs the earth on nothing."
c) DINOSAURS Long before scientists/archaeologists discovered that dinosaurs once roamed the face of the earth, the bible had already recorded such kind of animals. Read Job 40:15
"15 Behold now, behemoth, which I made as well as thee; He eateth grass as an ox.
16 Lo now, his strength is in his loins, And his force is in the muscles of his belly.
17 He moveth his tail like a cedar: The sinews of his thighs are knit together.
18 His bones are as tubes of brass; His limbs are like bars of iron.
19 He is the chief of the ways of God: He only that made him giveth him his sword.
20 Surely the mountains bring him forth food, Where all the beasts of the field do play.
21 He lieth under the lotus-trees, In the covert of the reed, and the fen.
22 The lotus-trees cover him with their shade; The willows of the brook compass him about.
23 Behold, if a river overflow, he trembleth not; He is confident, though a Jordan swell even to his mouth.
24 Shall any take him when he is on the watch, Or pierce through his nose with a snare?"
IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT THE NAME "DINOSAUR" WASN'T COINED BY SCIENTISTS UNTIL THE 19TH CENTURY AND THAT IS WHY YOU DON'T FIND THE WORD "DINOSAUR" IN THE BIBLE BECAUSE THE BIBLE WAS WRITTEN THOUSANDS OF YEARS BEFORE SCIENTISTS STARTED USING THE DINOSAUR WORD. But then, you may want to google the Dinosaur named Sauropod, which scientists officially recognise as the largest dinosaur to have ever lived. One of the translations of the bible put it this way in Job 40:19
"He is the foremost of God’s works; only his Maker can draw the sword against him."
Which means he is the largest or most monstrous of God's creation as well. When you google about that Sauropod, also find out what kind of food scientists discovered it ate, whether it was a carnivore or it fed on grass despite its huge size as the bible already said in Job 40 above.
NOTE: The book of Job in the bible according to bible scholars is the oldest book of the bible, and the events there occured before the flood of Noah (I don't have any personal proof of that one, but that is what people who have studied bible history say). If that happens to be the case, it can as well be concluded that these dinosaurs would have been wiped off the earth during the time of Noah's flood!
But first, like i said, google the Sauropod dinosaur and compare it with that monster God described in Job 40 and tell me how else it would have been recorded so accurately in the bible before scientists discovered dinosaurs existed if the word of God was not true.
Any further questions? I am open to answering them if you are willing to seek the truth
You can also read up Job 41 to see another description of some other sea monster that was described as well
What a waste of time. If you think I'd spend time reading this poo, you must be a joker.
Do you know the story of creation according to Edo tradition?
nelsonoba: At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this thread is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.
Just keep waiting for your Oyibo Christ to come take you to paradise in heaven, Others are working hard to make their world heaven.
You get me?
I told you your fancy Education was good for nothing right?
nelsonoba: Mr Man, I didn't choose to serve God because I was poor or facing any hardship in life. I worship God because it is gross foolishness to not acknowledge your creator who made you and owns the oxygen you breathe for free. I have seen ups and downs in life. I went to the best schools both within and outside Nigeria, and my family paid all my fees without any scholarships or having to borrow. As a matter of fact, I finished SS3 in year 2000, and my school fees at that time was almost N130,000. I went to one of the most expensive secondary schools in Nigeria. So just for you to know, I do not come from a broke background. If your mind tells you that christians who follow Jesus are doing so because of hardship, then you've just confirmed it that Lucifer has greatly deceived you.
I have attached a short clip of the Richest man in Singapore sharing his faith in Jesus. You don't have one-tenth the money he has. Nobody knows you, unlike him that is well-known around the world, and yet he is wise enough to follow Jesus. And you think you have more sense than him, right? SMH
God is that poor Almangiri Muslim boy, that disabled man in front of your church. The person your family must have ripped off to pay your school fees abroad.
It's people like you with their blocked reasoning, despite expensive education that have set our country back.
If you stop thinking about the arrival of your oyibo helper for a minute, perhaps you'd join us figure how to make the country heaven for all of us.The sooner you realise there is no christ flight, the sooner for us all.
nelsonoba: And you think you're the only one who lives/has lived in England?
You bring to my mind thoughts of cowardly OR mentally weak black people who feel so inferior to the white race, such that they always see themselves as "victims" and use every opportunity to cry RACISM. I have met your type so many times and it makes me sad at those times to be associated with the same race as you because at those times, the white people tend to get the impression that all blacks are like you and that we are perpetual victims who can never get ahead in life without any benevolence from the whiteman.
Ironically, The God of the bible who you so despise is the only God who states it clearly in the bible that He created ALL MEN EQUAL, AND IN CHRIST, THERE IS NO MALE OR FEMALE, JEW OR GENTILE, SLAVE OR FREE, But we are all equal before God! But your small racist mind has so blinded you that you can't see beyond skin colour.
Just in case you are not aware, if not for the bible which The Quakers(who were all white people) drew their inspiration from, we would still have had slavery going on till today, and you probably would have been a slave in England today. After all, our ancestors who were selling us as slaves to white men a few centuries ago had no motivation or reason whatsoever to stop the lucrative slave trade if it hadn't been fought by the Christian Quakers. And your African traditional gods may even have demanded that the chief priest used people like you as sacrifice to appease the angry gods of the land. But no! keep hating "the white man's God"
The only race is Human Race.
I'd be the last person to feel intimidated because of the colour of my skin. You have a long way to go before you understand what I'm mean.
Your fear of the unknown afterlife is increased by the hardship you've experienced in life. I don't blame you. The moment you see yourself as free from christ" that's when you'd stop being the real victim.
I don't need no christ to connect with God. You wouldn't dare.
nelsonoba: All I see in that picture is a blind you with chain tied to your own head and Lucifer's iron ball dragging you behind.
They apparently have not told you before that America is primarily a Christian nation where more than 70% of the population believe there is a God as against most European countries where more than 70% will tell you they don't believe in God. Now, the same America that believes in God has roughly the same population as the whole of Europe combined, but their GDP alone is greater than that of All the countries in Europe combined.
The same America that has Christian foundation is currently on record as the most prosperous civilisation/country that has ever existed in the history of mankind! Far more prosperous than all the Western European countries that hardly believe in God. So, tell me again how christianity is what pulls people backward You better go and find the source of the problem of the youths in your country and stop blaming christianity!
Im African, my God is neither Arab nor Jew.
Since time immemorial, Africans have sold themselves short for foreign, shinny things. America is a predominantly white, and they hardly go church. Having a white God only adds as boost and extra motivation to do work.
Pictures and calenders of White Angel Gabriel trampling upon black satan has ruined your reasoning forever.

The psychological effect of teaching you religion from age 3 is beyond your own comprehension..

zoedew: Quite clearly the Shiites in Nigeria and elsewhere are enemies of the Nigerian State. They deserve to be so treated. The law of survival dictates so. It will be foolhardy for the Nigerian State to keep treating the Shiites with kid-gloves all in the name of fundamental human rights while they do about killing and overawing other Nigerians whose fundamental human rights thereby get threatened or denied altogether.
How about this?
Nothing concern Nigeria or Black People and Islam in the first place.
The fight between shia and sunni is just a clear sign of pure madness.
Nigeria is a mad country. The more you take sides with madmen, the more you are drawn into madness.
ADAMUdaCOWBOY: Tony Elumelu is a detribalised Nigerian, we are proud of you. When you southerners were busy living off our groundnuts, did we complain? You guys enjoy our cow meat and fura da nono, yet you rejected ruga. Thunder will fire anyone that criticises Elumelu for this noble gesture.
I like where tthis is going. Keep this attitude up, you'd soon join your brothers in Niger and Chad..
Yusman316: Nigerian youths are seriously lazy and never take time to research anything. Rather they believe anything they are been told, especially when it is against someone they dislike. Abacha stole this, Abacha stole that, and they just believed. How much was Nigeria making that so much money was stolen and the country didn't go bankrupt? The second issue is how was Abacha able to stash so much cash in countries that have cut diplomatic ties with Nigeria? Abacha looted funds no doubt, but there is something fishy about the narrative out there
I'd rather be lazy than gullible.
You must have suffered as a result of his stealing but that dirty ethnic and Religious bias we keep complaining about would not let you speak the truth.
Una go suffer more more.

How is the north feeding the south? and what does Dangote being the richest man have to do with anything.
If the north know what they are doing they can feed most of west Africa and leave oil alone but being so uneducated, backward and parochial they can never see the big picture.
Tell them.
Instead they let useless people like Elrufai fool them with his dog witsle.
Nigeria needs to flush out these bad eggs from our system. The only thing he is good at is causing friction . Mr Inept- religious -bigot
StaffofOrayan: Remember when the chief imam of Abuja mosque in the presence of Buhari claimed all the insurgency and insecurity a test from Allah Y'all better wake up
Nigeria is in trouble. Our clueless leaders are religious fanatics.
The people can't help themselves because they have been thought religion from the age of 3 in kg1 Everyone is so afraid of the afterlife, everyone wants to go heaven but Nobody wants to die.
