But the law does not apply to him because the law was made when he was already 80 now.

Pastor Adebayo will remain the General Overseer of RCCG until God calls him home.
That's what I'm saying now. Why did he enact a law that does not apply to him?

Like he wants others to be subject to the law that he isn't subjected to. Logically it doesn't really make much sense sha.

Anyways, I forsee a lot of issues in that church the moment he dies at old age particularly if there's no succession plan before his demise. I have a feeling the Children and grandchildren of the Akindayomi's will make a move for the control of the church and it will certainly lead to serious friction in the church.

It is no surprise that the two trolls support teams we flogged mercilessly this season grin

We did a double over Man utd and since yesterday their fan no gree rest dey drag Arteta wey be the author and finisher of their team's sorrow.

The other supports Chelsea whom we scored had scored 5 unreplied goals against before the 70th minute grin

It is indeed true that misery surely loves company.

It's not his fault na. It is because our own fans decide to troll their own manager and he decided to partake in the troll fest.

Oh so this is one of the reasons behind y'all's "victims mentality"?

This is why y'all prefer to do rankadede and admit Pep as personal lord and saviour instead of focusing on the available opportunities/improvements that can be utilized to win the league at the expense of the other strong teams, irrespective of how good their manager is?

At this rate, it seems y'all would rather finish 2nd to Pep than win the League with Chelsea as runners up
grin

The situation here is actually worse than the initial prognosis
I like the fact that u were truthful enough not to counter my fair assessment of what ur issues is with Arteta's arsenal.

As far as EPL is concerned, Pep is everybody's Lord and savior in the last 7 going to 8 years he's been in the league. You may be disgruntled and unhappy with this fact but it is what it is.

Arteta is like the only person trying to something about keeping up with him in the last 2 seasons; so I understand that also makes u unhappy. No vex

Everton won't be easy if at all Spurs beat City but I still believe the boys can do it.
If City do mistake beat Spurs, trust me We will batter Everton before the end of first half on Sunday. We will beat them like we did in those matches we won 5-0, 6-0 this season.

I think you're just always holding the worst case scenario for us. Lol.

If anybody is doing anything and the first thing that comes to my "the worst case scenario" of anything, then I swear, nothing will ever be done.

....but what do I know

Issorait
Number 1 problem he has is that he dislikes Pep. I have seen him constantly downplay Pep's achievements when they do their merry-go-round arguments about Pep's acchievement on Chelsea thread.

The fact that he doesn't rate Pep, it's quite expected that he would also transfer the hate to Arteta who happens to be Pep's protege. That should tell u where he's coming from.

U can see most of the points he's been raising since yesterday lacks objectivity. He comes up with the worse case scenario when talking about Arsenal under Arteta

It's the part of him setting aside the tithe someone gave to God because his ego got hurt...so assuming God indeed wasn't all knowing and blessed people simply based on what was brought to him, na so Adeboye ready stand on the blessing they suppose receive until they apologized to him?

I'm starting to see the sense in those that call for churches to get taxed, cause it's clear these guys running these things see it as their personal enterprise and in a sense are offering the service of seeing to man's spiritual needs and the tithe, offerings and donations are the payment for service rendered.
One thing I still find amusing is that RCCG as at 2022 announced that the new retirement age for pastors will be 70 ; But Adeboye himself is 82 years old as at today.

How do u make a law that does not apply to u? How do people in the fold not question these things?

What is even more amusing is that unlike Oyedepo's Winners, RCCG is not a one-man church which was founded by Adeboye .

Trophy 1



Trophy 2





In your post, you have confidently celebrated two major trophies that are more important than the PL

Congratulations on the milestone achievement! cheesy

P.S - I never for once advocated for the sack of Arteta....at least for now

Rather, I am saying that unnecessary sentiments gotta be put aside if y'all wanna win the PL.

Playing the "Pep victim" wouldn't help the club bros.

Na PL be this - anything fit happen.

For example, Next season, any club fit just change owners, come assemble the Mbappes, vinicius jnrs, etc of the world

By that time, una go change the narrative to "ah, that team is the best team ever, we are more than happy to play second fiddle"

I hope y'all wouldnt look back and lament bitterly for not winning the league when you had the best chances (last season and the current one).

By that time, na only God knows where una go dey for league table.
All u are doing is grasping at straws and hoping the worse happens to Arsenal in the coming years. I don’tknow when stating facts has turned to “celebrating trophy “

I understand u are a rival fan and it is expected of u to think of the worse about Arsenal .

It is the Arsenal fans who have seen how far we have come under Arteta and still calling for his head that I have issues with.

How is it unnecessary sentiment to state that Arsenal are having like our second best season in EPL history as regards points amassed ? Do u have a problem with facts?

Didn't Ole solskjaer have an impressive record vs Pep?

You are even using Jamie fûcking carragher as example to buttress your stand. Lmao

Like I said earlier, the Wenger era has really damaged so many things at the club.

I wish Una speedy recovery grin
So u would rather we call for the sack of a coach who about to finish the season with our second best point haul in history?

Or we should wear sack cloth and throw ashes on our head in a season we have won record 27 games out of 37?

Where is the logic in that?

Y'all trying so hard to make it seem like we had a Chelsea/Man Utd kinda season.

U know what? I think Man Utd need that speedy recovery prayer more

I read the article and it appears as tho what the Iranian lawmaker said is CAP.

Right in that very article, the president of Iranian strategic council on foreign relations said they have not made any decision to produce nuclear bomb. I am inclined to believe him ahead of a lawmaker who is a politician that Propaganda is their stock in trade.

There’s also the part where the IAEA chief mentioned they are working hard with Iran to prevent nuclear weaponization from happening .

Then the part that caught my attention the most is about how Israel knocked out Syria’s nuclear reactor in 2007. Something tells me Israel would rather die than allow Iran acquire nuclear weapons

I've always been saying the bolded. I would understand if it's rival fans that are saying all these things and bantering that us "trophiless" and bla bla. I understand. They're called "rivals" for a reason.

But for some of our fans to not be understanding seeing where we came from, watching our games and seeing the improvement almost all round and seeing that we're on the ascendancy and still been overly critical like this is what I'm failing to grasp.

It's not as if we're at our peak sef or that we aren't improving even as we are
As in…. The same fans that celebrate our wins against all top 6 teams this season o.

The same fans now watch our games with peace of mind.

The same fans who watch us take 4 points out of possible 6 against city this season.

I just can’t wait for them to suggest a coach that will win us 114 out of possible 114 points coming season.

I am sure nobody sincerely meant that baba....

If anything at all, the "criticism" stems majorly from the disappointment of "being so close, yet missing out again", under similar circumstances that the manager somewhat had control over.

Again, the way y'all are so quick to bring in Pep into every discussion as some form of "consolation" is worrisome tbh. Big clubs with champions mentality do not care if the rival manager is a Pep+Ancelotti+Fergie clone - all that matters most is winning.

If the takes were in the form of "Ah, We should have won this. Hope Arteta has learnt his lessons. We go again next season", perhaps there wouldn't be so much backlash.

Arteta has done well at the club - I am not sure anybody is disputing this or sincerely calling for him to be sacked. However, if y'all are to be champions, some sentiments gotta be put aside and issues gotta be addressed, especially those that seem to be repetitive.

On a final note, God go punish that bald fraud Bin Laden for making me come to Arsenal thread to dey sympathize with una angry
Oga u are jumping into a conversation u don’t know its origin.

For the past 3 weeks or thereabouts we’ve been reading about how Arteta should be shown the way out if he fails to win the league or rather “ if he bottles the league “

We’ve been asking the proponents of these arguments who they suggest should take over from Arteta if the club management decides to take such unreasonable decision and nobody has been able to come up with a name that is convincing enough.

We’ve even given example of how ur own club has gone from appointing one bad manager to another while spending heavily while at it as a caution but they won’t have it.

U are saying we are using Pep as consolation but we’ve asked u and others to name coaches u know that have successfully dragged the league with Pep in the last few years but all heard in return is a deafening silence . To sack coach no be issue , getting a replacement is . Chelsea sacked Tuchel and replaced him with Harry Porter see where that has led them .

Arteta-led Arsenal team is on course to finish the season with 89 points; the second best points haul in the history of the club…… like second behind the invincibles’ 90 points.

But all we are reading here is that Arteta bottled the league and needs to be shown the way out despite dragging the EPL title with Pep till the last day of the season.

One lesson I’m taking away from all these is that if people no like u; dem no like u. They would always amplify your inadequacies while ignoring the positives u possess . It is understandable if rival fans troll us with usual trophy-less banters , but for an Arsenal fan who watched Arsenal win 27 EPL games out of 37 this season trolling the manager who did that ?

Omo!

I’m just glad that those making decisions at the club are people who don’t make decisions on emotional impulse but rather on measuring progress made by the manager

Arsenal now has 86 points and with a possibility of making it 89 points ( just a pint off the invincibles’ 90 points in a season )

But a section of our fans feels the best thing is to sack Arteta and appoint another coach who will build his own team to compete against Pep and the EPL asap.

Na here we Dey !

Man city versus Atheltico Madrid was worse than this match we just watched .

The fact that u hate Arteta won’t make u see this .

Man city literally didn’t play against athletico’s sineone that year. But u must find a way to blame Arteta for everything cos u don’t like him even when he’s doing well.

I still wait for u to recommend the coach that should take over from Arteta so we will try and measure such coach’s result against Arteta’s

Again, we all know the main reason is to develop a certain city and maybe a region at most.

Hence why you had a supporter of tinubu claim the southerners should be happy this project is happening for us.
I'm sure there will be those who will want to use ethnic angle for SW guys to not complain.

That project is mainly for Eko Atlantic City which also favours Lagos.
But again make we dey watch.
I don’t think the project is about favoring any particular region . It’s a project that spans South west and South South.


The project just looks like a convenient excuse to line some people’s pockets with funds for generations to come(if and when it gets completed )

Remember the mess about the Lekki concession company that was revealed after the ENDSARS protest in Lagos when the LASG which had earlier claimed it has paid off LCC claimed LCC needed to recoup their money and so tolling of the Lekki expressway must continue whether we like it or not ?

These people just come up with a lot of initiative that are shrouded in secrecy that benefits no one but the parties to the mysterious arrangements . Yet u have people that will always defend them no matter how unreasonable they sound

The highest number of points Arsenal amassed in a single season in history is the invincible’s 90 points about 20 years ago.

Today Arsenal is on 83 points with 2 games to go ( which if they win both can take them to 89 i.e one point short of the invincibles’ tally )

For some reasons I want the club management to make some knee jerk decision of sacking the man responsible for taking us back to this state . Let us sign that God-sent manager that will make us amass 114 over 114 points in an EPL season.

We must learn a lesson !
