Thank you, Darling! I can't even wrap my head around the outrage at all. Make dem go sit down, joor. You meet man for Tinder or Facebook, wahala. You jam man for road, problem. Fornication.

Okay, come and meet other godly people of similar values oh, a dating app by the church, another issue.

People are DATING already. So what's all the pretense for? Why not give people the avenue to do it the right way and openly, instead of pushing illicit acts underground, to places that breed more pre-marital sex and immorality -- which is what they are trying to avoid?

congrats nsofor, I remember his time in eagles wey e de score Tunder bolt shots from long range like d Brazilian andraino..
it seems he has been tied down by this beautiful Victoria but I dnt like dt topless baby bump photoshoot dey both did n it look asif nsofor was forced bcoz dt isnt our culture

Marvieduke:
I guess he spoke well, because later that app will turn to hookup app in church.

Terrier99:
This Leke lack sense. He is RCCG's Fani Kayode.

If he wants to condemn something done by the church, there are proper channels to do that. He knows that and he's very much aware as he is the Head of Pastors' Seed Fellowship.
He's just a blockhead who loves social media attention. He probably sees himself as another Speed Darlington.

I see nothing wrong in it if it's actually meant for the the purpose it was created.

I once went to my church.. wanted to see the Pst..

Things are not going so well with me and my family then..so I needed prayer as a believe prayer will do alot in solving most of the issue


So after Sunday service..I walk to see Pst..it was a Big Church.. among top 5 biggest Church in Nigeria

But I was stop by one of the Pastor..who offered to hear from me reasons why I wanted to see senior Pst

So he asked me..why do you want to see the Pst...

I told him..I need prayer

So he ask me what was wrong


I took my time to details to him what am passing through.. I just graduate from University and will leaving to NYSC and more over my family are passing through difficult time.. we just lost our a years plus ago


I was surprised after telling the Pastor all this..

Only for the Pst to ask me.. Am my a tither?

I answered, Yes I'm..I do pay my tithe

So he ask again. Have ever eaten you tither before.. I mean are you a faithful tithers.

And I told him, I was not...am a student..before now.. some time I eat my tithe

So the Pst conclusion was.. my problem and that of my family. Was because am not a faithful tither

That I don't need prayer, but consistent and faithful in tithing...

After hearing this..I failed off. Went into deep depression. Start regretting all the tithe I have eaten..

Including the 100 naira profit I once made..which I eat the 10 naira tithe fee on it


This regret and depression never go a way so soon. It stays with me for years..not until I came to the knowledge of tithe.

May God continue to help us

Why do religious folks think their problems will disappear when they involve their gods?

HabaHaba:
Yes teachers were uninvolved in the lives of the students, but have u considered the school policy of not allowing teachers to discipline their students? Because of the huge school fees paid in these private schools, the children are usually ALLOWED TO GET SPOILED!

Rich children's schools are usually faces with this kinda of problems.

We wey attend public schools those years of yore, who u be to bully your classmates like this?!!!

Teaches go flog shit outta your ass on Assembly!

Well, i see it as Time has Changed, so are the challenges bedeviling our children, bur any body wey try to test me with my kids go Jam Madt Trailer!

Make we die togeda!

The bolded part made me remember the novel we read in senior secondary school, Lord Of The Flies by William Golding. Humans, and mainly children unsupervised can become very base and animalistic.
Glad to see someone in the know. Without adult control, children are monsters.

Humans, including adults have the same tendency, but maturity and refinement helps us subdue such primordial tendencies. I was once a boarder too, in short, all of my secondary school life was spent in a boarding school. It is still the best period of my life, even now that am in my mid twenties. I can count the number of times I was bullied, maybe twice or thrice at the most. The secret is, I was quite intelligent and smart. I knew my rights, right from early age, and despite being an introvert, I was always ready to fight even my seniors if they crossed boundaries.
Like this a lot. Most children don't know that can fight back via adult authority when they find themselves in this situation. Teachers need to be on hand and observant, too.

Parents should treat their kids with love and honest friendship, no politics. Let them know they have your support at all times. Be their true friend, that when things go south, they can turn to you. Bullies are scared of those that know their right and will stand their ground. Therefore train your kids to be the biblical "wise like a serpent, harmless like a dove". When they grow, you will be grateful you did this, because even a lot of adults today are peer-pressured into so much vices, like the drugs and rituals epidermic ravaging Nigeria today.
You've just about said it all.

Maxymilliano:
Why do people forget autopsy in cases like this? Since the school said he fell, hurt his leg and complain of hips pain, an autopsy will reveal what happened to him.

The family should expect just two things, a broken bone and a dislocated hip if that is possible. But if there is any other blunt trauma to his body, they already won the case. Simple.

Deborah98:
Wow this is good news. Boarding school that used to be fun is now a den of mischievousness and indiscipline. I'll be a liar if I didn't have one or two of my school mates then narrate their ordeals to me. 60% of school children aged btw 9-15 are sexually harassed,abused and even face worst sexual perversions than we know. Parents and guardians here it's time to take the bull by the horn, don't neglect early signs of discomfort exhibited by your child and ward. I've told people times without number not to shun their children's plea of not wanting to go to school or see this particular teacher. Know why he or she dislikes the teacher, interrogate them in love and by so doing you'll be winning their tender hearts to expose more evils to you. Peace.

Divoc19:
That is where we as parents should get closer to our children

Divoc19:
Why didn't you tell your parents about the bullies then?

CandyOps:
Bullying in secondary schools is as old as time. Back in the days in FGC the senior boys then will kpokpo you to the extent that we had to leave the dormitory and sleep in classes at night or in the bushes. It was so horrible that even our house masters and supervisors couldn't do anything about it.

They beat us like criminals used planks 2by2, iron buckets, chains, edge of cutlasses, and their fists. It was so bad that whenever you see a student with a broken arm at the sickbay the first question he'll be asked would be, "who beat you up?"

It was so disheartening that the thought of going back to school after the mid-term break will literally make our hearts race and you will feel sick to your stomach.

The only solution to that would be to look into the authoritarian parenting style we have in Nigeria. The act of flogging or physically abusing kids when they err should be made illegal or proscribed. Because I believe the family is the cell of a society and the way our parents tidy our fxck ups is the same way a military man or police will tidy your fck up.. when you do something as simple as piss him off

That same system of rule is what is replicated in the senior boys that bully kids. It won't stop as long as we have a culture of physically publishing our kids. It's a trend we instilled in them. Spare the rod and spare the child.

I'm not sure I can put my kids through a boarding school after what I experienced. And this was more than 15 years ago. If something wey dey happen since 15 years ago no fit stop wetin make you feel say e go stop in another 15 years in the future??

I don't think it's right for parents to physically assault their kids in the name of punishment because there is no gauge to how much beating the kid deserves. Besides, there is a thin line between abuse and reprimand by flogging.

It's a major sign of bad parenting.. and as you know some trauma especially those experienced as kids or adolescents may lead to psychosis later in life.

And the underlying psychotic disorders will come to light as soon as the victim engages in drugs like weed, alcohol intoxication or some takes some prescribed psychotropic medications. Which is why it is bad to give or share weed with your friends wey never take am before.

You don't know who has a low-key psychosis

If you talk now, them go begin quote backward moral proverbs for you. Just watch

The problem is that many men dont want to marry foreigners. They want to remain "local" in and out

Nigerians abuse antibiotics a lot and it's sad.
Herpes is a viral infection.. Even though, antivirals may help but not curative.
The disease is self limiting.

pocohantas:
Oh pls stop telling yourself lies. Cheating pains Nigerian men to the marrows.

MummyD2020:
But women also take men abroad too na

ziondaughter247:
Very toxic forum. But I have stopped being upset about the toxicity here because 99% of the small boys that spill trash here about women have no life. Forget oooh, most of the people here forming red-piller bulshit are actually in their village looking for snake to kill and mention lalasticlala. They don't even have hope of visiting this so-called abroad in this life. This is the only place they get to feel like men probably because it's a faceless forum. I just pity the SIMPs (probably part of the 1% who have a life) who listen to this bullshit advice for lowlifers and try to apply it in the real world.

abbey621:
You're reading meaning into nothing and putting words in my mouth, the response was to a MAN having doubts about marriage and bringing his spouse abroad. Whatever issues you've got with the male gender is entirely your own and has nothing to do with the discussion so miss me with the BS!

abobote:
Me I will be taking my wife and kids by January, I just have to do it for the kids

abbey621:
In life always ask yourself what is the worst case scenario? Once you can answer this confidently, just prepare for it. Whether you marry Amaka from the village and bring her abroad or you marry Vivian that is already abroad, women have one thing in common, they can do and undo blah blah blah. Forget years of love, forget all the lao lao you've done for her, once a trigger is set in a woman, my guy forget about it!

The question is simple, will you be one of those guys that falls apart just because something went wrong or will you be a real nigga and rise above it? Don't let fear cause you to miss out on your soulmate, don't let fear engulf you with so much negativity that you automatically make every woman you meet an investigative case. It is okay to trust but only after you've made yourself comfortable with the reality of asking WHAT'S THE WORST THAT CAN HAPPEN?

If you're not comfortable with the answer then you're not ready for marriage, for marriage itself is making yourself vulnerable and trusting that the vulnerability would not be used against you. If it is eventually used against you, trusting that you've prepared for it and you are able to accept this is just a reality of life, for all is fair in love and war my nigga!
