that's the rule of stowaway on ship.

don't do it

There is no such rule that mandates crew to kill stowaways. The right thing to do is to keep them safe onboard and hand them over to authorities at the nearest port.

How does a survey about admiration that most likely have less than a million respondents translates to winning an election with more than 160 million electorates.

Your stupidity is like "zeeword" .... Extraordinary everyday.

It's better you wake up from your dreams and embrace reality, the earlier the better.



Nonsense and Bobrisky

This your "less than one million respondents", does it also apply for the 12 years Obama held it?

Talking from experience as a fleet manager:

This is absolute madness, you could have just told new entrants not to even think venturing into the business..this may obviously not be a problem for uber and bolt, but if this eventually has a ripple effect on the drivers via increase of service commission, they can kiss their ass goodbye from Nigerian fleet managers whom are the power house of the ride-hailing companies, of which many are pulling out in droves today..

- Total purchase of a (non-rusted) regular corolla including registrations and starter pack/kit - 2m
- Average income /week (full time) - N100,000
- minimum Fueling/week - N30,000
- Commission remittance (currently) - N25,000
- average e-hail coy commission - 25% - N25,000
- Drivers earning 20k or less per week for being 112hrs on the road out of 168hrs, that is terrible but everyone is trying to survive..

- Fleet managers take home/week - (N25,000)..
Monthly sum - (N100,000)

inevitable expense projections:
Service - (N8,000 monthly)
- Monthly tire change projection (used) (N7,000)
- Monthly repairs projection (dollar rise in parts) - (15,000)
- Fines/levies/impound/tolls provision - (5,000)
- Driver short pays and run-aways - (5,000) or could cost you a whole week if not two.
- Logistics, tracking & follow ups - (5,000)
- Monthly Comprehensive insurance - (7,000)

Average monthly income after deductions - N50,000(madness).. e.g with N10m(5 cars) you barely make 250k monthly on a depreciating asset you dont control prices neither do you have the final decision.(who is that stupid?)

Vehicle replacement - 2m/N50,000 = 40mths (if it's a full-time business, it's impossible to save 100% of that income..(4 years approx with all things being equal is almost impossible) for a car virtually 18hrs on the road.. it may encounter major accidents, engine change, gear box change, AC issues during the period which does not just cut down massively on the capital recovery or wipe it all out, but inturn increases the capital recovery period of the vehicle aswell, well beyond the projected 40mths..

With this projections alongside increase in dollar /fuel which directly affects repair cost, reduces returns drastically, coupled with the shrinking economy that reduces riders, who in his right senses would remain in such business if a service charge is increased that affects both fleet managers and drivers?..

We go all carry gun las las... bye

The summary of your analysis is what the government intends to achieve. Power players in Lagos both in and out of government are mostly NURTW Agberos, so it will not be wrong for anyone to assume they want to frustrate e-hailing operators.

Myopic. You think Buhari and Tinubu will last forever? You think Yorubas are like others who are one-way traffic and only know how to make empty noise? The only thing constant in life is change. We cannot go on as things are regarding security. The North, whether they like it or not, will have to embrace liberalism and tolerance when in power otherwise their purported superior numbers , they think will always keep them in power, will matter zilch when the Yorubas spiritually disengage from Nigeria. This is what some of us have been telling Igbos for decades. Openly shouting and gnashing teeth is not the only way to get what you want.

I have long encouraged Igbos to be more insular and go for the jugular of Nigeria, with their purported trading and economic might, if they really want Biafra. Once the power that be see that Igbos are not smiling with them economically and financially then they may grant more concession towards regional autonomy. Yorubas will succeed where Igbos fail because we are different. I therefore look forward to Buhari dissolving Amotekun, thus showing he has no regard for us and the security of Yoruba lives, as you brag in this your post. See wether the Yorubas will just accept that, continue to watch their people being slaughtered and do nothing but make noise as others have always done in Nigeria.

Do you not see prominent Yorubas, from Soyinka to FFK and PDP to APC, speaking in unison over Amotekun and telling Miyeti Allah et al to FFK their Presidency? Without Presidency, which region is best and most highly-regarded in Nigeria? Bruv, who is Buhari or Tinubu when Yorubas become spiritually wedded to a cause or pursuit? [/quote]

That is their business, afterall Uber vehicles are not painted so how will they know the car coming to pick me is Uber? We can easily beat them to that.

No Christian complained when Buhari went for Hajj a few weeks ago. OIC is a different ball game altogether. Is Nigeria an Islamic country?

...

Sometimes you might not necessarily blame the pastors but the congregations because it’s so obvious that members don’t spare time anymore to read the word of God that will grant them insight to enable them differentiate the right and wrong preaching hence whatever the pastors or so called “men of god” preach to them becomes a norm. And sadly, the false ones now dominate the Christianity by preaching what the gullible minds really want to hear. Smh
Frankly speaking, there’s a serious problem in the world today as these so called pastors have turned the church into a circus or worse, into Disney movie studio as if scripts are being acted in the church and it will not cease not until we christians realize that with or without your pastors you can make heaven by being firmly rooted in the word of God and not living like your life is dependent on the mortal you likened as your savior.

Happy Sunday

My brother whether the members read the Bible or not, it is the duty of the preacher to tell the congratulation the raw truth of Christ's gospel let 'he that hath ears hear what the spirit is saying'.

Prince4mic:
onne port.

just so you know, the port is currently deserted as there as no contracts for vessels and massive lay-off of staffs.

For the very first time I got to onne port and saw only two vessels at the quayside. I wept
I knew the current economic policies aren't helping the maritime sector.

Not anymore. Vessels are on contract now.

Great player.

greatdave:
This post is false and only propagated by those who want to keep enjoying the pleasures of sin while "maintaining" salvation. Yes, the gift of salvation is eternal for as many that receive and abide. Jesus exhorts His disciples, “Abide in Me, and I in you.” And further in John 15:6 He says, “If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.”
There are several other scriptures that point to the need of "standing in the faith". Now am I claiming to be a sinless Christian, absolutely not. But I recognise my sin and run back to my saviour's arms, because I know if I dont, my heart stands to harden and I get comfortable in my sin and gradually drift away.
God bless!

boss1310:
imagine getting on the last day and you were told that most things you thought to be sins aren't

You lose nothing as opposed to they turning out to be true if you ignored them.

Ok.

I guess you're referring to Bride Assembly here. If it is nothing to worry about. They're not much different from deeper life, mfm. They are not extremists, but believe in outward Christian appearance.

alBHAGDADI:


When you are saved, you receive the Holy Spirit. And below are His fruit.

Galatians 5:22-23

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

So if I exhibit all of the above but still tell lies and sleep with my girlfriend, I'd still make heaven?

alBHAGDADI:
Sorry Chioma, you got it all wrong.

All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. But God gave us his son so that we will be made righteous.

2 Corinthians 5:21

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

As long as you are still in the flesh, you will sin. But your spirit is saved. Your flesh will be destroyed but eternity is for your spirit. By the way, you have backed your stance with no Bible verse. You only quoted Philippians 2:12

Philippians 2:12
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

You quoted the verse without proper understanding of what it's saying. You probably think it is saying that you should work to save yourself. Then what's the need for Jesus dieing on the cross?

The verse is simply saying that we should show out that which God put inside of us. God has saved us already, He now wants us to show fruits of our salvation. Those fruits are what others will see that will make them change and believe in Jesus as well.

Let me give you one example. When you go to the gym, what do you say you are doing? You say you are working out. You already have hips and curves which are what God deposited in you. But to make them more pronounced, you go to the gym to work them out. When your friends see your new look, they marvel and ask how you did it. That's when you tell them about working out at the gym. They get motivated to be like you, so they go to the gym too.

Same thing with a very wicked man whom everyone avoids because he is toxic. All of a sudden, he becomes kind and loving to a very strong degree. Don't you think people will wonder about the sudden change? He will tell them Jesus changed him and out a good heart in him, that is why he is showing kindness unlike before. This can make many to draw near to Christ.

Now the passage in Philippians which you quoted, had it been you read the next verse, you would have understood better. The next verse will make you understand what I've been saying since.

Philippians 2:13
For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

God worked salvation in you and wants you to do his good pleasure. That's why he said you should work out that salvation so that people will through that get saved as well.

You also asked if we should continue in sin so that grace may abound. Yes, Grace abounds even more when there is sin.

Romans 5:20
Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

What are those fruits of salvation that we are to exhibit?

CocoaOla:
It has been said over and over again that the money stolen by the political class since 1960 till date, is more than enough to turn the whole of Nigeria into Dubai, Singapore, Paris and Rome, ten times and over. Money meant for the construction of roads and bridges for ease of transport; for the construction of monuments to preserve our history; for the building of world class schools to educate and nurture Nigeria's future leaders and inventors; the building of hospitals to care for the sick; to develop our infrastructure and produce power to light our streets and homes, have been shared by a few treacherous prodigals.

Sad truth. Terribly painful.

This church holds 6 services every Sunday because of their teeming population. Check this pictures out of how crowd overflow the church each time they hold a service and judge if they don't need a bigger auditorium to contain the members.

My brother you owe no one any explanation. They can criticize for all we care...

make Messi self vex comot for Barca mak we see wat goin to hppn... frm man U to Madrid nw Juventus... why Messi Barcelona and him dey call himself world best..

Sporting Lisbon- Portuguese Power house. Manchester United- English Power house. Real Madrid- A power house in Spain. Let C Ronaldo go to Napoli or Everton and make a difference by guiding them to a trophy then we know he has impact. Not moving from one big club to another and his fans are making noise. Why didn't he go to AC Milan? Cos he knows Juventus has the highest chance of clinching a winner next season.

[quote author=An2elect2 post=59440222]
Now read what you quoted A saved man is a godly man and cannot turn the grace of God into licencousness. A saved man was long ago marked out for salvation, justification and glorification.

Just because you are not now able to rightly divide the word of God shouldn't make you think God has not taught many people to.




God cannot teach you one thing and teach another a different thing. There's only one truth. You made mention of the thief at calvary that Jesus forgave; he died on that cross, if he had Lived thereafter and continued in Sin, not even the promise of eternal life by Christ on the cross would have saved him.
