Religion is for the gullible and for those who can't fully think for themselves but rely on a so called MOG who will definitely brainwash them with rubbish upon rubbish.

I don't want to call names but you all know how many pastors and prophets actually prohesied that Tinubu won't be President and yet he has been sworn in as the President.https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=3308466839377042&id=100011593264597
What happened to their prophesies? Or should I say lies. How long will nigerians remain gullible and keep following this scammers and their propaganda

FireUpNow:
Believe those worldly pastors and prophets at your own risk. Remember Bob Marley's words that goes give us the teachings of his Majesty for we don't want the devil's philosophy.
We were called names and insulted when some of us insisted that God does not choose nor anoint any candidate for a nation when it comes to democracy. We kicked against using the name of our Lord and His altar for political matters and campaign and we used the scripture to judge prophecy. I will always believe the scriptures against any prophecy. Please always study your Bible.

God is not an author of confusing.. He knows why everything is the way it is.. If Tinubu is president, God ordains him and nigeria is in safe hands..

basseeafricana:
Dangerous idiotic VP. I laugh a lot about this idiot, called Osibanjo. Even, if he has political struggle with Tinubu, that does not mean to be undermining his roles in his life. This is someone struggling to become president. After spending good seven yrs without any tangible achievement with his Fulani man. Osinbanjo will never got APC presidential ticket. Everyone can quote me today, his political downfall has set in.
PoliticsRe: Osinbajo: How I Learnt Of My Nomination As Buhari’s Running Mate by BishopZion(m): 11:18am On Apr 28, 2022
He said how got to know about his nomination and not who nominated him. You need to learn to read to comprehend.

quote author=Maxymilliano post=112337136]My grouse with this interview is how he left out Tinubu's name completely in the entire narration.

Somebody watered the ground and paved the way for him, Aregbe and Amosun were just the purveyors.[/quote]

SportsJean-pierre Adams Still In Coma For 37 Years by BishopZion(op): 8:32pm On Sep 29, 2019
Adams was born and raised in Dakar until the age of 10, when he left his native Senegal on a pilgrimage to Montargis in the Loiret department alongside his grandmother, who was a devout Catholic. When they arrived, she enlisted him at a local Catholic school, Saint-Louis de Montargis.[3] He was adopted by a French couple shortly after his arrival.

During his studies, Adams worked at a local rubber manufacturer and he started playing football at several local clubs in the Loiret area.


Adams started playing with RC Fontainebleau in 1967 as a striker, with whom he won the Championnat de France amateur twice. In 1970, he signed a contract with Nîmes Olympique, going on to remain in Ligue 1 for the following nine seasons, also playing for OGC Nice and Paris Saint-Germain FC.[4]

In the 1971–72 campaign, Adams contributed with four goals in all 38 games to help Nîmes to a best-ever second place, also winning the Cup of the Alps.[6] He added a career-best nine in 1973–74, for a final ninth position.

After one year in Ligue 2 with FC Mulhouse, Adams retired in 1981 at the age of 33, following a spell with amateurs FC Chalon.

Adams and his wife Bernadette were married in April 1969 and have two sons, Laurent (born 1969) and Frédéric (1976). Following a ligament rupture injury, he was hospitalised for surgery on 17 March 1982 at the Édouard Herriot Hospital in Lyon. After an error made by his anaesthetist, he suffered a bronchospasm which starved his brain of oxygen and he slipped into a coma.[9][10][11]

In the mid 1990s, when a court of law adjudicated on the case, both the anesthetist and trainee were given one-month suspended sentences and fines that translated to a $815 fine.

PoliticsThe Origin Of Nigerian State Names by BishopZion(op): 8:09pm On Nov 09, 2018
THE ORIGIN OF NIGERIAN STATE NAMES


Abia:
Abia is an acronym derived from the name of the four main groups of the people in the state as at the time it was formed in 1991: Aba, Bende, Isuikwuato & Afikpo.

Adamawa:
This state was named after a warrior that conquered the region in the beginning of the 19th century. His name was Modibbo Adama Bin Ardo Hassan.

Akwa-Ibom:
Akwa Ibom is named after a river, the Qua Iboe (or Kwa Iboe) River.

Anambra:
It was derived from the name of the Oma Mbala
(Omambala) River (in Igbo, the native name of the river is Ànyịm Ọma Mbala).

Bauchi:
There are 3 versions of how Bauchi got its name. One version says ‘Bauchi’ is Hausa word meaning the southern flanks of Hausaland. Tribes living in the southern parts of the Hausaland were referred to as "kasashen bauchi".

Bayelsa:
Bayelsa was formed as a result of the clamour from the three LGAs in old Rivers (Brass LGA known as BALGA, Yenagoa LGA known as YELGA and Sagbama LGA – SALGA). The name came about from the combination of their acronymns.
BA + YEL + SA = BAYELSA.
