Topic:The spirit of Adultery
Sub-Topic:Vision showed to me by the most high.
Bible verse :Exodus 20:1-10.

Hello my Brothers and Sisters in Lord Jesus Christ, I greet you all in the name of the Most High God. I pray we shall make heaven.
This is a vision showed to me by God Almighty,while I was sleeping. This happened last year, God has given me the Authority to share it with you all,am speaking to you under the authority of he who sent me (God),because he loves the people he created, he wants to save them from the hands of Satan, who had been looking for different ways to enslave the people of God. But the devil is a liar.
I was sleeping, and the spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ lead me to unknown kingdom, things here are different, people here are in bondage, shouting for help day and night. They want to get out of this bondage, a very powerful beast was put incharge to make sure no one comes out of the bondage, because this seems the most powerful weapon for capturing the children of God.
The beast qualities
1.The beast has total power on all the people in the bondage, he has their control in his hand, when they are shouting, he has power to shown them.
2.The beast is powerful
3.The beast eyes is like that of a cow.
4.He has two horns
5.He is dark in complexion, and hairy.
6.He is the spirit of Adultery, and known to be the Father of Adultery.
7.Has power to choose Husband and wife For those that are in his Bondage
I asked God who are the people in this bondage? God said they are the adulterers, they grouped under the following names, Boyfriend/Girlfriend,Manfriend/Womanfriend and so on. While some are shouting some are busy sitting down and having fun, this people are those that are comfortable with adultery, God told me those that are shouting are those praying to God /Jesus to take them away from the sin because they want to stop committing adultery, but it's seems they Got no help.
Millions of souls are there even the little boys and girls, anyone who had has sex before will be put into that bondage, this little children once they grow to maturity stage they will join the boyfriend/girlfriend.
Suddenly all I heared is perfect silent because the beast noticed something is coming, those shouting for help, the beast had control them not to shout again,the beast went to hide somewhere, and suddenly I saw a light coming, it was Jesus Christ the son Of God, he had the noise of people shouting calling him for help, but ungetting there no one is shouting for help any longer, because the beast had control them not to shout, he drain their energy. Jesus Christ stood there to here someone shout for help, then I woke up.
Message God sent me, Don't have a boyfriend/girlfriend,Manfriend/Womanfriend,because that name the devil has use it as a bondage to lure people to his kingdom. God ask me to tell you that you should always wait patiently, that he is the God that gives Husband to a girl, Wife to a boy, many marriage are destroyed because they were given husband/wife by the spirit of Adultery, he said you should let him choose for you, he knows what is best for you.Some people want to excel in life, academic, businesses and so on, they can't excel because they are in sin, in a very big sin, that is why the devil is having control over their lives, God said you should stop adultery, God can't hear the prayers of a sinner, God can't hear the prayers of those that goes against his commandments, be wise, and give your life to Jesus Christ.Thank you, I have delivered God message to you, and I pray you will have a change of heart in Jesus name, for prayers you can call me here 08156132151,you are bless

Ooo God this is too much, the child are too young for this kind of death, may they rest in perfect peace.

LAGOS— Senior Special Assistant on Diaspora Matters to the President, Mrs. Abike Dabiri- Erewa, has tongue-lashed South Africa’s Home Affairs Minister, Mr. Malusi Gigaba, over his negation of the death of 116 Nigerians in xenophobic attacks by his fellow countrymen. Mrs. Dabiri-Erewa in a strongly worded statement bemoaned as irresponsible the failure of the minster to realise the fact that xenophobia is a social disease which his countrymen needed to be cured of. Noting with irony that Nigeria’s past assistance to South Africa has fetched xenophobia, Mrs. Dabiri-Erewa remonstrated with the South African Home Affairs minister over his lethargic response that the death of “more than 100 Nigerians” should be sorted out at the diplomatic level. She said: “It appears that Mr. Gigaba would rather dwell on and entertain himself with diplomatic niceties when the welfare of Nigerians resident in South Africa are at stake now more than any time in recent history. “His response to the xenophobic attacks, which has now become a recurring decimal on Africans, most especially Nigerians living peacefully in their host country of South Africa was, indeed, unfortunate.” “While it’s no longer news that law-abiding Nigerians in that country have borne the major brunt of these attacks, the news by the Home Affairs Minister that his country is trying to get rid of criminals in his country at the time when indiscriminate mayhem and looting of law-abiding Nigerians is very suspicious, to say the least. Even if this unguarded statement must be taken in its face value, we wonder if wanton destruction and indiscriminate killing of their African brothers is the most sensible excuse to give. The home affairs minister should have been more guarded and introspective in his statements so as not to further fan the embers of xenophobia that may get out control if care is not taken. “Nigeria and South Africa have a long-standing diplomatic relationship in which the former played a critical, if not a pivotal role that culminated in ending apartheid, among so many of her positive interventions. “Indiscriminate killings, in which 116 deaths have been recorded of her people MUST not be how Nigeria should be paid back. Xenophobia is such a debilitating social disease, based mostly on ignorance, in which its carrier also suffers. I therefore suggest that the home affairs minister should engage in the mass education of the South African people about the debilitating effects of this disease with immediate effect. “It’s apt to mention at this juncture that the home affairs minister only met with African consulates forum, an association of African consuls general, based in South Africa recently , despite the fact that this meeting was long overdue. “Mr. Gigaba’s response to the mayhem that a segment of the South African people perpetrated on law-abiding Nigerians in South Africa smirks of insensitivity, and it’s therefore very reprehensible, if not unacceptable. In view of this unfortunate statement, I am therefore restating my earlier call on the African Union (AU) to take up the South Africa’s xenophobic issue as a matter of urgency. “The days that the Nigerian government will fold its arms while its citizens are maltreated to the point that some of them have lost their lives for no just cause are long gone.”

Congrats to all lautech students

Lecturers at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), Ogbomoso have suspended their eight months old strike. Dr Biodun Olaniran, Chairman, LAUTECH chapter of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), announced the suspension of the strike in a statement on Wednesday in Ogbomoso. ASUU said that the strike was suspended following the union’s congress held on Tuesday at the university. “After comparing the demands of the union and what the management has met out of the demands, and after extensive deliberations on the struggle so far, the union has resolved to suspend the strike immediately,” Olaniran said. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the institution had been shut since the lecturers went on strike eight months ago. The union had embarked on the strike over unpaid salaries and allowances, as well as the failure of the owner states of Oyo and Osun to release subventions to the institution. LAUTECH Vice Chancellor, Prof. Seleiman Gbadegesin, recently told newsmen that the two owner state governments had paid N584 million out of the N7.6 billion they owed the institution. NAN reports that the owner states had in October 2016 set up a visitation panel in their efforts to find a lasting solution to the crisis. The panel, headed by Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN), has submitted its report.

The terrorist Boko Haram group recruited
about 2,000 children in 2016 and used them
as child soldiers, the UN Children’s Fund
(UNICEF) has said.
UNICEF Executive Director, Anthony Lake,
disclosed this as global leaders gather in
Paris on the anniversary of the Paris
Commitments to end the use of children in
conflict, according to a UN report.
Lake said, estimates indicated that tens of
thousands under the age of 18 were being
used in conflicts worldwide.
According to the UNICEF chief, exact data
on the number of children used and recruited
in armed conflict is difficult to ascertain
because of the unlawful nature of child
recruitment.
“For instance, since 2013 an estimated
17,000 children have been recruited in South
Sudan and up to 10,000 have been recruited
in the Central African Republic (CAR).”
“Similarly, nearly 2,000 children were
recruited by Boko Haram, in Nigeria and
neighbouring countries, last year alone, and
there have been nearly 1,500 cases of child
recruitment in Yemen since the conflict
escalated in March 2015.”
“We cannot give up the fight to end child
recruitment,” the UNICEF chief said.
According to him, even though over the past
10 years, more than 65,000 children have
been released from armed forces and armed
groups, tens of thousands of boys and girls
under the age of 18 continue to be used in
conflicts around the world.
“It is not only about looking back at what
has been accomplished, but looking forward
to the work that remains to be done to
support the children of war,” he said.
Adopted 10 years ago, the Paris
Commitments, together with the Paris
Principles and Guidelines, lay out guidance
for protecting children from recruitment and
use by armed forces or armed groups.
The Paris Agreement also assists the
release of child soldiers and their
reintegration, with other vulnerable children
affected by armed conflict in their
communities.
“There has also been progress since it was
adopted, the number of countries endorsing
the Paris commitments has nearly doubled
from 58 countries in 2007 to 105 at present,
signalling an increasing global commitment
to end the use of children in conflict.”
“Globally, more than 65,000 children have
been released from armed forces and armed
groups, including 20,000 in the Democratic
Republic of the Congo.”
“Nearly 9,000 in the Central African
Republic; and over 1,600 children in Chad.
But more needs to be done,” the UNICEF
chief said.
According to him, seeking to build on the
current momentum, the Paris International
Ministerial Conference on the Protection of
Children in Armed Conflicts is urging for
unconditional release of all children –
without exception – and putting an end to
child recruitment.
“It is also calling for increased resources to
help reintegrate and educate children who
have been released, and urgent action to
protect internally displaced children,
child refugees and migrants.”
“As long as children are still affected by the
fighting, we cannot give up the fight for the
children,” Lake added.

A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr. Joe Agi, who is being prosecuted along with Justice Adeniyi Ademola of a Federal High Court , has told the Department of State Services that a President Muhammadu Buhari’s lawyer paid N 500 ,000 to the judge in 2015. Agi said Mr. Kola Awodein (SAN ) paid the money to Justice Ademola in 2015 at the time the judge was presiding over Buhari’s certificate case . Agi had claimed to a DSS investigator that the sum of N500 , 000 paid to Justice Ademola by Awodein was not meant to be a bribe but a gift for the wedding of the judge’s daughter . This came to the fore on Tuesday when a DSS investigator , Mr. Babatunde Adepoju , was testifying before a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory , Maitama, as the 16 th prosecution witness in the ongoing trial of Justice Ademola, his wife, Olabowale and Agi . Adepoju made the disclosure while being cross - examined by defence lawyers . Justice Ademola, Olabowale and Agi , are being jointly prosecuted by the Office of the Attorney General of the Federation on charges, including receiving and giving gratification to influence the course of justice. Among the 18 counts preferred against the defendants , was an allegation that on January 5 , 2015 , in his capacity as a public servant , Justice Ademola “ corruptly received ” from Agi a BMW Saloon 320 i valued at N8 .5 m through his son, Ademide Ademola, as gratification in the exercise of his official functions as a judge. The prosecution also alleged in about five other counts , that Justice Ademola, through his wife, received gratification of N 30 m in three instalments of N 10 m each from Agi between March 11 and March 26 , 2015 . Under cross - examination on Tuesday , Adepoju confirmed that in the course of investigating the case against the defendants , he interrogated and took the statements of Justice Ademola and Agi only. The witness also confirmed that Agi had disclosed the information of Awodein’ s payment of N 500 ,000 to Justice Ademola to him (Adepoju ), in the course of interrogation . He also confirmed that Agi had explained under interrogation that the N30 m he paid into Olabowale’s account was the money contributed by his and Justice Ademola’s mutual friends for the judge’s daughter ’s wedding. The witness , who had concluded his evidence- in - chief on Monday , confirmed under cross - examination that, among those who, like many other friends , sent monetary gifts to Justice Ademola about the time of his daughter ’s wedding in 2015 was Awodein. Awodein used to be a lawyer in the defence team of the then presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd .), (now the President), who was faced with a series of suits seeking his disqualification from participating in the March 28 , 2015 presidential election for failing to submit his academic certificates to the Independent National Electoral Commission . Adepoju confirmed that Agi had said under interrogation that while the certificate case filed by one Mr. Chukwunweike Okafor was pending before Justice Ademola, Awodein paid the sum of N 500 ,000 into the judge’s account as gift for the judge’s daughter ’s wedding. The encounter between Agi ’s lawyer, Mr. Jeph Njikonye , and Adepoju went thus: Lawyer : In that interview , he (Agi) told you that the wedding gift passed by Ken Hubert and Bassey Nassey was not the only wedding gift . Witness: Yes . Lawyer : He (Agi) also told you that Buhari’s lawyer , Mr. President’s lawyer, also passed a gift of N500 , 000 to the family through him. Witness: Yes Lawyer : The name of the lawyer is Mr. Kola Awodein (SAN ). Witness: Yes Lawyer : The third defendant (Agi ) further informed you that within the period (before and after the wedding ) that Buhari’ s certificate case was pending before the first defendant (Justice Ademola). Witness: Yes Lawyer : Was President Buhari’s lawyer paying the money in order to win his case? Witness: No Lawyer : To say that it (the money paid by Awodein ) was a bribe would be a speculation . Witness: Yes Lawyer : To describe the gifts passed through the third defendant by mutual friends as bribe would be speculative . Witness: Yes When earlier cross - examined by Chief Robert Clarke , Olabowale’ s lawyer, the witness agreed that in African culture , it was usual for people to be “ showered with gifts ” when having any of naming , wedding and funeral ceremonies . On the BMW car gift , Adepoju confirmed that the judge’s son, Ademide, said under interrogation that Agi was his mentor and that the car was a fulfilment of a long - promised gift from the Senior Advocate of Nigeria. The witness also admitted that the initial allegations that Justice Ademola received bribe from the immediate - past National Security Adviser , Col . Sambo Dasuki (retd .), as well as from the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra , Mr. Nnamdi Kanu , for the bail he granted them , were not backed by evidence. He said he confirmed in the course of investigation that the Federal Government did not oppose either of the two accused persons ’ bail applications when heard by Justice Ademola. The witness also confirmed that a magistrate earlier granted bail to Kanu but the order of bail was not complied with. He said he was not aware if the magistrate had been put on trial . On the allegation that the N30 m paid to the judge’s wife was probably a bribe for an order of garnishee nisi granted in favour of Agi ’s clients for the enforcement of a $ 3 . 2 bn judgment earlier given by the judge, Adepoju confirmed that, his “ initial view of the matter is based on incomplete knowledge .” The lead prosecuting counsel , Mr. Segun Jegede , announced after the defence lawyers finished cross - examining Adepoju and the witness subsequently re - examined, on Tuesday , that the prosecution had closed its case. Jegede called three bankers as additional prosecution witnesses on Tuesday . With a total of 19 witnesses, he announced that the prosecution had closed its case. But the defence lawyers said they would file no - case submission. The trial judge, Justice Jude Okeke, directed that the defence must file the no- case submission and the prosecution should respond before March 19 . He fixed March 19 for the hearing of the no - case submission.

The Peoples Democratic Party and major groups , including the Nigeria Voters ’ Assembly and the National Association of Resident Doctors , on Tuesday , differed on the latest development on President Muhammadu Buhari’ s medical vacation. While the NVA said the President’s statement on his health was a message of hope , the PDP said it wished the President well . The NARD said his absence could create some gaps , which could lead to power play at the federal level. Buhari had , on Tuesday , said the results of a series of checkups he carried out in the course of his medical vacation had shown that he needed longer period of rest. He said this necessitated his staying back in London longer than initially planned . The President said this in a four - paragraph statement made available to journalists by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity , Mr. Femi Adesina. Adesina did not disclose how long the President’s “ longer period of rest” would take . He, however , thanked Nigerians for their prayers and good wishes while assuring them that there was no cause for worry. The statement read , “ The President is immensely grateful for the prayers , show of love and concern. “ President Buhari wishes to reassure Nigerians that there is no cause for worry. ‘”During his normal annual checkup, tests showed he needed a longer period of rest , necessitating the President staying longer than originally planned . ” The President of NARD, Dr . Onyebueze Ugochukwu, urged Nigerians to pray for the quick recovery of the President. He prayed that the Acting President would sustain the fight against corruption and insurgency . Ugochukwu believed that the absence of the President would create some gaps in communication, decision - making and implementation . “ These gaps may lead to some internal bickering and power play . This is bound to happen when those in his management team depart from project Nigeria to pursue personal interest ,” he stated . Aso , the National Publicity Secretary of the Yoruba socio - cultural group, Yinka Odumakin, said the cabal around the President would put pressure on the Acting President, Prof . Yemi Osinbajo . He said , “ The implication of his long stay is that the country would technically pause for the period he is going to be away . There would be a lot of power play with the cabal around the President, breathing down the neck of the Acting President with ‘the President said ’ even when he did not say. They may even sign things in his name knowing that the Acting President does not have regular access. “ We are in for a season of dual Presidency as the power bloc around the President will maximise this season. The President should be commended for transmitting power to his deputy unlike Yar’ Adua, who did not transfer power or possibly had his transmission seized by the cabal .” In his reaction, the President of the NVA, Mashood Erubami , in an interview with The PUNCH in Abuja, said Nigerians should be happy that the evil wishes of some unnamed enemies for the President had not come to pass . He said , “ We should thank God for the message from the President; a message of hope , which should be well managed to advance the cause of good governance . “ Hitherto , Nigerians were worried that the President was not communicating directly with them as they had to rely on good faith with third party information. “ Now that he can be quoted to have said he will stay longer to rest well before he returns, he is only being truthful and honest with Nigerians . We should all be happy that the evil wishes of the enemies of progress have not come to pass .” Also, the Executive Secretary Anti - Corruption Network , Ebenezer Oyetakin, lauded the President’s statement. He said , “ I am sure that if the situation gets to the extent that he can no longer be the President, the Buhari that I know will obviously take the path of honour and be the first to so declare. Nevertheless , he has obtained annual leave legally ; he has transferred Presidential power to his Vice - President as required by the constitution and has informed Nigerians .” The national leadership of the PDP said it would continue to pray for Buhari. The Acting National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr. Bernard Mikko , stated this in an interview with one of our correspondents in Abuja on Tuesday . Mikko stated , “ The President’s request should be viewed in accordance with our statutes. Though the terms of his vacation have not been made clear to most Nigerians , most Nigerians wish him well . No patriotic Nigerian will wish his President otherwise. “ He can be excused within the ambit of the law . I don ’t know the status of his health and can ’t comment on his physical or mental suitability . “ From the age of 50 , who is 100 per cent healthy ?” Saraki briefs Senate on visit to Buhari Meanwhile, the Senate President, Bukola Saraki , on Tuesday , briefed members of the Senate on his trip to the United Kingdom to visit Buhari. Saraki, Speaker of the House of Representatives , Mr. Yakubu Dogara ; and the Majority Leader of the Senate, Senator Ahmad Lawan , had on Wednesday , last week, met with Buhari, who is on leave in London , attending to his health . When the lawmakers resumed from a three- week recess on Tuesday , the Senate President, during the plenary , first read Buhari’s letter to the legislature on the extension of his leave. Saraki had received the letter during the recess . It was dated February 5 , 2017, the last day of the President’s initial 10 - day leave. The letter read , “ Further to my letter dated January 18 , 2017 , in which I notified the distinguished Senate of taking part of my annual leave . “ During my leave, I took the opportunity to have routine check - ups and consult my long - standing doctors in London . “ In the course of the routine examinations , certain test results indicated the need for a course of medications and further appointments have been scheduled for next week. “ I am , therefore, notifying the Distinguished Senate that I am extending my leave until the doctors are satisfied that certain factors are ruled out. In the circumstances, the vice- president will continue to act on my behalf .” After reading the letter , Saraki said , “ Further to the correspondence from Mr. President, let me also use this opportunity to brief my colleagues on the visit . I led a delegation of myself, the Honourable Speaker and the Majority Leader to visit Mr. President, Buhari, on Wednesday , February 15 , to convey the greetings and best wishes of the National Assembly and I am happy to report that we met the President in good spirits ; in good health; chatty as usual ; and conveys his best wishes and hopes to be back very soon.”

A 45-year-old commercial driver, Lawrence
Adedapo, has been sentenced to seven
years in prison by an Ado Ekiti High Court for
raping an 80-year-old woman, Madam Grace
Asaolu.
Adedapo had sexually assaulted the
octogenarian on November 7, 2013, at Oke
Erimope Street, Ogbese, Ise-Ekiti in Ise/Orun
Local Government Area of Ekiti State and
was subsequently charged to court.
He had pleaded not guilty to the charge
when he was brought to court and had given
evidence in his own defence and did not call
any witness.
He had claimed in his testimony during the
trial that the old woman as his “mother as
well as his concubine” whom he has been
dating as far back as his bachelor years.
He claimed that the victim, Mrs Asaolu had
framed him up, and alleged that the old
woman had earlier approached him for some
money to travel to her village, but on that
date, she walked into his room and
demanded for the money.
According to Adedapo, Asaolu had started
romancing him, which eventually led to a
sexual intercourse after he had given her
N1,000.
The prosecution led by the Attorney General
and Commissioner for Justice, Owoseni
Ajayi, gave evidence that the convict
claimed in his confession to have been
dating the woman before the incident and
that she consented to the sexual
intercourse.
But Ajayi tendered the bloodstained clothes
of the victim, which was recovered from the
scene of the incident.
In his judgement, Justice Dele Omotoso
convicted Adedapo based on the evidence
before the court, which he said showed that
the driver forcefully had a carnal knowledge
of the old woman.
Justice Omotoso pronounced Adedapo guilty
as charged, after he had resolved all issues
for determination against him.
Consequently, he sentenced him to a jail
term of seven years for unlawfully carnal
knowledge of the old woman.

The Zamfara State Coordinator of the National Youths Service Corps (NYSC), Hajiya Rahmatu Sanda, says NYSC will not send corps members to “troubled areas” in the state. Sanda told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Gusau that one of the major concerns of the NYSC was to protect corps members. “We don’t send corps members to those areas with security implications. We only send them to those areas where there is no security challenge. She commended security agencies in the state for their support and cooperation, particularly in the areas of security coverage. Sanda said that In spite of the security challenges in the state, “we have not recorded any problem or casualty to any of our corps members”. She urged serving corps members in the state to be security conscious, cooperate with security agencies and report any security situation to them for immediate action. Sanda also urged them to always cooperate and respect the culture, values and religion of their respective host communities.

A 43 - year - old man, Adebisi Akinrinmola, has been arrested by the men of the Ogun State Police Command for allegedly shooting his rival, Ademola Asimiyu , to death over a woman both of them were dating . A police source said the incident occurred on Sunday at about 3 pm at Ajebo Village in Ijebu- Igbo area of the state. The state Police Public Relations Officer , Abimbola Oyeyemi, said the suspect claimed that the deceased has been threatening him for quite some time now over the woman he was dating. He said the suspect also claimed that the 36 - year - old Asimiyu had accused him of snatching the woman from him and had warned him to leave the woman Oyeyemi, an Assistant Superintendent of Police, said trouble started when the deceased met the suspect with the said woman while returning from the farm and a hot argument ensued between the two men. He said , “ The suspect claimed that it was the deceased that brought out a machete and made attempt to hit him which prompted him too to bring out a dane gun and shot him to death .” After the tragic incident, Oyeyemi said a distress call was made to the police Divisional Headquarters at Ijebu Igbo, and the Divisional Police Officer , Agene James, led detectives to the scene where the suspect was promptly arrested and the dane gun recovered . He said the corpse of the deceased has been deposited in the mortuary for autopsy . Meanwhile, the state Commissioner of Police, Ahmed Iliyasu , has ordered that the suspect be transferred to Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department , Eleweran , Abeokuta , for further investigation . Iliyasu warned residents of the state of consequences of jungle justice, stressing that the law would deal decisively with anyone caught taking laws into his own hand. He described the incident as barbaric which “ is not acceptable in any sane society.”

In a free - market economy , anyone can make as much money as they want ,” emphasizes self - made millionaire Steve Siebold, who has also studied over 1 ,200 of the world’s wealthiest people. And it’s never too early to start . To help you reach the seven- figure mark by 30 , we rounded up nine pieces of advice from people who became millionaires at a young age , as well as those who have studied hundreds of self- made millionaires . We can ’ t guarantee millionaire status , but doing these things won ’t hurt your odds. 1. Focus on earning “ In today ’s economic environment you cannot save your way to millionaire status ,” writes Grant Cardone , who went from broke and in debt at 21 to self- made millionaire by 30 . “ The first step is to focus on increasing your income in increments and repeating that. “ My income was $ 3 ,000 a month and nine years later it was $ 20 ,000 a month . Start following the money , and it will force you to control revenue and see opportunities .” Earning more money is often easier said than done , but most people have options. Read about 50 ways to bring in additional income, some high- paying jobs you can do on the side , how you can earn passive income, and the first step to take before starting any business , from an entrepreneur who earns up to $ 170 ,000 a month . 2. Develop multiple streams of income One way to earn more is to increase your streams of income. In author Thomas C. Corley’s five - year study of self- made millionaires , he found that many of them develop multiple streams of income: 65 % had three streams , 45 % had four streams , and 29 % had five or more streams . These additional streams include real - estate rentals, stock market investments , and part- ownership in a side business . “ Three streams of income seems to be the magic number for the self - made millionaires in my Rich Habits study, but the more income streams you can create in life , the more secure will your financial house be , ” he writes . 3. Save to invest , don’ t save to save Writes Cardone : “ The only reason to save money is to invest it. Put your saved money into secured , sacred (untouchable ) accounts . Never use these accounts for anything , not even an emergency . This will force you to continue to follow step one (increase income). To this day, at least twice a year, I am broke because I always invest my surpluses into ventures I cannot access. ” Investing is not as complicated or daunting as we make it out to be . The simplest starting point is to contribute to your 401 (k ) if your employer offers one, and take full advantage of your company’ s 401 (k ) match program — which is essentially free money — if it has one. Next , consider contributing money toward a Roth IRA or traditional IRA, individual retirement accounts with different contribution limits and tax structures — which one you can use depends on your income. If you still have money left over, you can research low - cost index funds, which Warren Buffett recommends , and look into the online - investment platforms known as “ robo- advisers. ” The key to consistently setting aside money is to make it automatic . That way , you’ ll never even see the money you’re contributing and you’ ll learn to live without it. 4. Don’t show off — show up “ I didn ’t buy my first luxury watch or car until my businesses and investments were producing multiple secure flows of income, ” writes Cardone. “ I was still driving a Toyota Camry when I had become a millionaire. Be known for your work ethic , not the trinkets that you buy .” Need inspiration to save more and spend less ? Read up on tips and strategies from regular people who saved enough of their incomes to retire before 40 . 5. Change your mindset about money “ Getting rich begins with the way you think and what you believe about making money ,” self- made millionaire Steve Siebold explains . At the end of the day, “ The secret has always been the same: thinking ,” he emphasizes. While the masses believe becoming wealthy is out of their control, rich people know that making money is really an inside job . ” 6. Invest in yourself “ The safest investment I ’ve ever made is in my future, ” writes Tucker Hughes, who became a millionaire at 22 . “ Read at least 30 minutes a day, listen to relevant podcasts while driving and seek out mentors vigorously . You don ’ t just need to be a master in your field , you need to be a well - rounded genius capable of talking about any subject whether it is financial, political or sports related . Consume knowledge like air and put your pursuit of learning above all else. ” Many modern - day successful and wealthy people are voracious readers. Take Warren Buffett, for example, who estimates that 80 % of his working day is dedicated to reading . 7. Set goals and visualize achieving them If you want to make more money , you have to have a clear goal and then a specific plan for how to achieve that goal . Money won ’t just appear — you have to work at it. Rich people choose to commit to attaining wealth. It takes focus, courage, knowledge , and a lot of effort, self - made millionaire T . Harv Eker emphasizes, and it’ s possible if you have precise goals and a clear vision: “ The number one reason most people don ’ t get what they want is that they don ’t know what they want . Rich people are totally clear that they want wealth. ” 8. Hang out with people you admire Andrew Carnegie, who started with nothing before becoming the richest man in the US , credits all of his riches to one principle : the Master Mind . The idea is to surround yourself with talented people who share your vision, because the alignment of several smart and creative minds is exponentially more powerful than just one. Plus , we become like the people we associate with , which is why the rich tend to associate with others who are rich. “ In most cases, your net worth mirrors the level of your closest friends ,” explains Siebold. “ Exposure to people who are more successful than you are has the potential to expand your thinking and catapult your income. The reality is , millionaires think differently from the middle class about money , and there’ s much to be gained by being in their presence. ” 9. Shoot for $10m , not $ 1m “ The single biggest financial mistake I’ ve made was not thinking big enough,” writes Cardone . “ I encourage you to go for more than a million . There is no shortage of money on this planet , only a shortage of people thinking big enough.”

The Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu , on Monday, took a swipe at the All Progressives Congress administration led by President Muhammadu Buhari , saying the economy has suffered more crisis under the new government. Ekweremadu said this at the Peoples Democratic Party’ s national stakeholders’ meeting held at the Ekiti State Governor’s Lodge , Asokoro, Abuja, on Monday. The Deputy Senate President, while decrying the worsening economic conditions of the country , alleged that “ all APC promises had been kept in the reverse order .” He was quoted by his Special Adviser on Media , Mr Uche Anichukwu , as saying , “ They told us that one US dollar would be one naira when they take over. Has that happened ? Today, our currency is the worst currency in the whole of Africa . Is that the type of democracy we looked forward to ? I can see a situation where the price of oil is going up and the value of naira is going down . What type of economics is that?” Ekweremadu , however, enjoined PDP faithful to remain strong as the party would “ work with Nigerians to restore true democracy and hope to our people.” He said , “ I believe that with determination and sticking together , we will triumph and Nigeria will be better for it.” The Deputy Senate President also condemned what he described as the manipulation of vital institutions of democracy and radical decline of democratic freedoms in Nigeria . He also said the solidarity of all key organs of the PDP for the Senator Ahmed Makarfi- led National Caretaker Committee , despite the recent judgment of the Court of Appeal on the party’s leadership tussle , showed that “ it is not the hood that makes the monk.” Ekweremadu , while condemning the sealing of the International Conference Centre, Abuja, the earlier announced venue of the meeting, by the security agencies , said that “ such flagrant manipulation of critical institutions of democracy is not only dangerous , but bad news for the nation’s democracy .” He said , “ We are aware that all the institutions of democracy are being manipulated and harassed in this country . The National Assembly and the press are not left out . The Independent National Electoral Commission has been captured and now a part of the APC . Our judiciary is being insulted and assaulted every day. Their houses are being attacked very late at night and the judges are being harassed . “ So, we are not surprised at what we are seeing today (sealing of meeting venue )? But what remains is for us to remain resolute .” The Deputy Senate President expressed his displeasure at what he described as the rising political persecution in the country . He said , “ If you look around this room , you will see a lot of people who are being harassed, persecuted and taken to court. What is their offence ? They claim they allegedly received stolen property, yet , nobody has been arraigned for the actual stealing . As a lawyer, I know that if you are being arraigned for receiving stolen property, you must first of all arraign the man who stole the property. That is not so in our own case . Is that democracy ?” Ekwememadu urged party members to remain resolute and protect the soul of the PDP and the nation’s democracy , insisting that the party leaders were made by the party faithful and could never be imposed from the outside . He said , “ We have heard there was a judgment in Port Harcourt . Now , those who benefitted from the judgment , where are they ? Are they with our former ministers ? Are they with our National Assembly members ? Are they with our governors ? Which organ of the party are they with or is with them ? The truth is that it is not the hood that makes the monk .”

Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu has said it took President Muhammadu Buhari’s leadership to halt Boko Haram ’s march towards Aso Rock in 2015 . He also announced that Nigeria now ranks as the world’ s second largest producer of rice . Shehu said this at a special interactive session with students of various tertiary institutions , in Abuja, on Saturday . The event was organised by the Pro - Buhari Support for Good Governance in Nigeria . He assured members of the group that their support for the President would not be in vain noting that as an individual , Buhari has attained heights most men can only dream about . According to him, in his youth, the President chose a career in the military and rose to become an army general and went on to become military Head- of - State . On the war against Boko Haram terrorists, Shehu said , “ Look at all of the way the efforts that have been put in rolling back Boko Haram ; there are many people who believe that if not for President Muhammadu Buhari, had PDP continued in this country in 2015 , they would have taken over Aso Rock by now . ” On the economy he said , “ The president is working hard to restructure the economy , this is very much misunderstood by Nigerians . Unfortunately , it is easier to destroy than to build . “ We met a situation that the economy had been ravaged and people are used to lifestyles that can no longer be sustained. No country will develop when you are having to import everything including tooth pick and tissue paper. “ All of the money earned was just going to buy food . As I speak to you now Nigeria just achieved the record of the second largest of rice in the world. “ The rice revolution just started a year ago. A newspaper did an investigation in Kebbi and they found out that there were 48 ,000 new millionaires in Kebbi state alone for growing rice . Over reliance on oil has killed this country and we cannot continue like this.”

Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose , has said politicians should allow President Muhammadu Buhari to enjoy his rest and stop disturbing him with needless visits. He also said he remained a committed member of the Peoples Democratic Party loyal to Ahmed Makarfi- led faction despite the Court of Appeal judgment recognising Alimodu Sheriff as the National Chairman . He said , “ We are not going anywhere . The matter has been appealed. In elections, three things are important : party, candidate and people. We have the people. The power of the people is greater than the machinations of the people working against us.” The governor spoke on a live programme tagged , ‘Meet Your Governor’ aired on the state- owned Ekiti Television and Radio Stations on Saturday . Fayose , while praying for sound health for the president, said his desire for a better Nigeria accounted for why he had been criticising the Federal Government when things were not done the right way . He explained that he had stopped criticising the president since he travelled abroad for medical attention because anyone could fall sick and the president should be allowed to enjoy his rest . “ I don ’ t have any problem with the president; the only problem I have is with his handlers. They will say something today and say another tomorrow . Anybody can fall sick . “ I have not been criticising the president because he is sick . When he comes back and he is not doing the right thing , we will continue to criticise him, ” he said . Describing the visits by some All Progressives Congress chieftains to the president as a make- belief and too much of eye service , Fayose said it would not have been necessary if the people knew the truth from the onset . “ It is God that gives power to whoever He wills. As humans , we can fall sick . But people should allow him to rest . “ Some people are visiting him to convince people that he is well ; that is a make- belief and too much of eye - service .” The governor said he would use the forthcoming international women’s day to celebrate and promote women in Ekiti. Lamenting that many of them were educated but lacked exposure, Fayose said many of them were dying in silent because the men were not showing enough love and care . “ So many women are in pains today because some husbands had become terrors at home . We must consciously promote women, show love to them and assist them .” He urged women to establish support groups that will champion their cause while promising to appoint more of them in his government .
