In 2024 we flared 6.5 million metric tons of natural gas equivalent, compared with 1.2 million metric tons of LPG households and businesses used for cooking in the same year. If we had functional leadership and institutions, IOCs and LOCs would've been asked to stop has flaring, clean it and make it available for use. |
Goldrosewine:Damn, this is called schooling. I hope you actually walk the talk; if you do, keep it up. Never ever lose focus/sight of who you are and where you're heading. Never mind what haters say, what they say doesn't count. All that matters is that "to your own self, you stay true and stay real." |
The question is, why are these people not called "terrorists" that they are? Why is the government downplaying what they are? Bandits are armed robbers, people who steal/operate for economic benefits. What we have in Nigeria especially in the Northern part of Nigeria are terrorists. Are they called Bandits so that the supposed reintegration program will be easier to sell? How long will this deceit continue? |
1Alex:Obviously that car is being driven, so it's right to ask for mileage. There's a difference between a brand-new car and a zero-mileage car. Under ideal conditions, a brand-new car ought to have zero mileage, but most times, in Nigeria, a car is allegedly brand new but used by the dealer while the car is still with him/her. Looking at this picture, this car has been driven. And for those who'll ask how the car will get to the dealer's car lot, there are special-purpose vehicles used to transport vehicles. |
different strokes for different folks. The guy is leaving documented evidences. He doesn't want stories tomorrow. |
Baawaa:Not a valid arguement. Especially now that there's Star link and cheap solar solutions. The budget allocated for the election is enough to power real time transmission. |
RevenuesBoost:Nice hook. So how do we earn daily too? |
CyynthiaKiss:UK is there. UK is now an Islamic country, and radicalized at that. Dubai has stopped scholarships to the UK for fear of Islamic radicalization. https://www.foxnews.com/world/uae-cuts-funding-citizens-studying-uk-universities-over-campus-radicalization-fears-report https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/01/09/uae-restricts-funding-students-britan-radicalisation-fears/ |
Thanks for the update. |
repogirl:Wednesday is here |
caleboxylic:You seem to forget that most businesses can be run by remote workers. And also, most businesses models don't even require staff. Go and ask Uber drivers. |
caleboxylic:If I am to own a a business in Nigeria, the first condition condition on the employment agreement would be no unionism, a complete and permanent ban on it. If you want to be in a union, join a firm that supports it or create your own. I saw unionism shut down a brewery around 2011, till date most of them are still unemployed, whereas the bosses they were protesting against are all gainful employed. |
Godfullsam:So glad to see someone with the right understanding. There's something people fail to understand; First, the offerings that were tithed by Abraham (Gen. 14) and Jacob (Gen. 28) are descriptions—not prescriptions. Abraham simply returned Melchizedek's hospitality, Jacob entered into a business agreement with God, it was a conditional transaction, Jacob told God "if you will... and i will" other words, there's no evidence that Abraham and Jacob continued to tithe or that their actions were binding for others then or today. Secondly there are three kinds of tithe in the Bible, and note that the tithes was strictly for the Israelites, not for strangers who lived with them, and the Levites ALONE were to collect tithes. This was their own compensation and inheritance, remember that the Levites weren't given land, they had nothing but the tithes. Numbers 18:21: I give to the Levites (ministers) all the tithes…in return for the work they do while serving (the Lord). There's the tithe that was to be paid once in three years And it wasn't taken to the temple, it was kept at the gate for the Levites, for the widows, the fatherless, the strangers. Deuteronomy 14:27–29: At the end of every three years you shall bring out all the tithe of your produce in the same year and lay it up within your towns. And the Levite, because he has no portion or inheritance with you, and the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, who are within your towns, shall come and eat and be filled, that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands that you do. Again note that tithes was strictly for the Israelis not the strangers (non Israelis). And only the Levites were to collect tithes, as their own inheritance. Numbers 18:21-28 21 “Behold, I have given the children of Levi all the tithes in Israel as [a]an inheritance in return for the work which they perform, the work of the tabernacle of meeting. 22 Hereafter the children of Israel shall not come near the tabernacle of meeting, lest they bear sin and die. 23 But the Levites shall perform the work of the tabernacle of meeting, and they shall bear their iniquity; it shall be a statute forever, throughout your generations, that among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance. 24 For the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer up as a heave offering to the Lord, I have given to the Levites [b]as an inheritance; therefore I have said to them, ‘Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance.’ ” Then there's the tithe that was to be eaten by the tither at the temple: Deuteronomy 14:23-26 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the Lord your God always. 24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the Lord your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the Lord will choose to put his Name is so far away), 25 then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose. 26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice. And the the tithe for increase, (firstlings etc) And finally, the book of Malachi, that portion was directed at the priests, and then extended to the entire congregation. Remember that it was the priest alone that could enter the store house. To better understand Malachi 3:8 start from Malachi chapter 1 Malachi 1:6–7: "A son honors his father, a servant honours his master. I am your Father and Master, yet you don't honor me…you despise my name." "Who? Us?" you say. "When did we ever despise your name?" "When you offer polluted sacrifices on my altar." "Polluted sacrifices? When have we ever done a thing like that?" "Every time you say, 'Don't bother bringing anything very valuable to offer to God!'” In conclusion, tithing should be a personal commitment, done to honour and appreciate God for supplies, not to keep the law or for fear of devourers, else Jesus Christ came to die in vain, and we should continue to to make animal sacrifices, stop mixed cropping and other instructions. The reality is that the only reason most Pastors are still hammering on Tithe is because they need the money. Most churches will go broke and pack up if they stop collecting tithes. |

ArchSolutions:Exactly, buying a matured dog or even a dog that's more than 3 months old is a ticking time bomb. Especially dogs from animal shelters, you have no idea what kind of abuse they've suffered and what triggers the memories for them. |
