]IKOYI BUILDING COLLAPSE: WE CRIED TO GOD UNTO GOD UNDER THE RUBBLE AND....



This story is the true experience "We" had just 2 weeks ago when the 21 story terrace building collapsed were we were all hustling... It is a satire in honour of the thousands of prayers we made under the rubbles of the collapsed buildings... I hope this story would inspire you readers to think deeply about life and faith


"Happy New Year!!!!!!!!! " Thank God we made it! I walked around to shake the hands of 21 people and say to them... "Happy New Year, this is your year of lifting!"
2021 is our year of lifting according to our Church's theme. Our pastor had just instructed us to walk around and shake the hands of 21 people while processing the theme to them.
This was not the first time.... It was a tradition I had experienced since the day I could talk.
We had prayed and appreciated God for giving us the grace to see 2021.

Our Daddy in the Lord, Reverend Pastor Dr. Mike Ozumba Omotayo JP (PhD) took to the stage and started prophesying to us.

"We cannot die because we serve a living God... You shall not die!"

This year, you will prosper

You have been trekking but this year you will buy your own private jet!

I screamed Amen along with other members of my church!

Our Daddy continued.

" It is IMPOSSIBLE FOR A CHILD OF GOD TO DIE"
we all murmered "Yes"

No of you shall die!....

My leg was broken, I could feel sever pains one that I cannot describe to you. Hell cannot be worse than the situation I found myself in. Everywhere was dark I could hear others also crying, praying and screaming for help.

I have been in in this condition for so long it seemed like eternity, there was no way to tell the time... It was just all so dark. I cannot move any part of my body. The decking concrete slap of the top floor of where I was when the building collapse was pressing me down. I could not breath well. Oh God! This place is really HOT. 5he heat was killing me. I am sweating....haaaaa why God why? Everything is just terrible.
I had prayed for God to save me, I had asked God to please save me, I had cried my eyes out until I could not cry anymore. Even Jesus Christ did not go through this much pain why is Jesus ignoring me. Why has he left me here. Jesus why? Even if I am a sinner, I have prayed and begged you to forgive me.
Where is the holy spirit, I pray in the spirit, I am a child of God.
I prayed even when I got to the site the day of the collapse. I always pray before I started work .... What is happening


Then it started to rAin I could hear the thunderstorm faintly, it was raining heavily, the. Water started to come into the rubble. I was so glad for this, it seemed like god and answered my prayer because I was really thirsty. I could not imagine It was possible for a human to be as thirsty as I was. The heat under the collapsed building had sucked all my energy my tongue was dry, there was no saliva in my mouth again. My throat was bleeding from so much coughing, the bleeding too got dried from the sever heat under this place.
When the rain started, it reduced the heat, the water started coming inside where I was. I could not move very much but I could turn my neck a bit, u turned and started licking the sandy water that was coming in. I did not care if it was dirty it was this time I appreciated life I was living even as a broke guy. Here I am I don't mind if God would save me and make me a mad man on the street or god should just save me and let me be even be an hostage with boko haram. I don't mind they should be raping me every 30 mins as long as they will just be giving me water to drink. God why, why. I cried but tears did not drop any more...

2 weeks later the bodies of 45 people in this condition, had been brought out....

Among survivors have been Christians and Muslims. If the site was in India, Hindu people would have been the survivors. If it were to be in Sweden, survivors would have been Atheists too. If it were in China, we would have had Buddhist s as survivors....
But the survivors all came out saying God loved them.... God had a purpose for their lives.

I guess God hates me and the 45 others that died. I guess God does not have a purpose for our lives.

If God answered prayers, if God loved us, why would he leave us in such pains....


May the souls of the departed find peace. Amen


I hope we can all reflect on this incident and really ask ourselves... WHEN IS GOD EVER USEFUL?

THOSE THINGS WE THINK ARE ANSWERS TO OUR PRAYERS ARE OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT SERVING YOUR GOD NOT ALSO ENJOYING THEM? DONT PEOPLE FROM OTHER RELIGION ALSO WIN CONTRACTS, BUILD HOUSES, GET ADMISSION, GET ILL AND RECOVER,... THE LIST GOES ON AND ON...
WHat exactly do you think you are enjoying from God of your religion that other people without your religion are not enjoying?

If God answered prayers, this would would have been a better place, stop giving unreasonable excuses to why God does not answer prayers. Excuses are for weaklings not for a God.

I met my first love when I was driving from ikole Ekiti to Osogbo osun State in early 2012, we started dating and we loved each other, she always sing it to my hear that she was lucky to have me, but after about 3years in the relationship which I had relaxed and believed that I have found the mother of my children, she came up with a story that, her pastor said we are not compatible and that we will regret if we dare marry each other, I didn't force or persuade her, she left in 2015.

I got into another relationship in 2016 March, this one was really ready to marry cuz she advised me to rent a 2bedroom apartment she even gave me money to get a set of chair and put in the living room for us to start living together... She came back home with the same story in 2017 Feb on her birthday that her pastor said, I'm not the man for her, she left without looking back.

To cut the story short, I did an admission for a girl in 2018, and we ended up dating, I gave her close marking until she had to travel back home cuz of the Corona outbreak, she called me from home and told me that her pastor said, she should not marry me cuz it may not augur well, I begged and persuaded for about one month but she insisted...

I still didn't see it as anything untill last night when the girl I've been dating after Corona break, we met at the teaching practice, we spend most of our time together she literally lived with me ...but she went to Abuja, her parents place last week Saturday, she's been giving me attitudes until last night when she came out bluntly with same story, that her Mom saw it in the dream that her current boyfriend is not the person she should marry, that cries await her if she dares to..

What is going on with me... I'm confused, this one is affecting me.

LiegeMan:
hello Nairalanders, sorry for the long write-up, it's LiegeMan again.
my name is Mr Omale liegeman and I'm from Kogi State, I thank you all for your kind advice on the other thread regarding my wife's past life and I can assure you all that I decided to put to use some of the advice from here ( yes, I read all the 590+ comments from A-Z) and it's yielding positive result as I've been experiencing happiness as never before in my life, though majority of Nairalanders who contributed in the previous post failed to understand my point of view because I was trying to make the post as snappy as possible. Thank you all once more.

Now, while I was planning ways to work things out with my wife with some of the advice that I gathered here, my Aunty who's married to an Igbo man from Imo state called me that her daughter, who's a student of Imo State University (Imsu) came home during weekend, Saturday precisely, locked herself up in a room and has been crying ever since without food nor water, and has refused to see nor talk to anyone.
I advice them to keep an eye on her so as to prevent her from attempting something stupid, she assured me that they broke into her apartment where she locked up Herself and brought her out.

So on Sunday, being 31 day of October, 2021, I left everything that I was doing in Makurdi and rushed to their village in Imo State, on getting there, I observed that both her hands and legs were tied and when I inquired why, she told me that it was an attempt to prevent her from escaping. I asked them to untie her, she was still crying when I asked her to go dress up that I'll be taking her out, she quickly went inside and dressed up we left the village for Orlu.

When we reached Orlu, we entered into a restaurant, and I started asking her what the problem was, I inquired if it was her boyfriend that broke her heart, she said no, I later succeeded in making her to tell me what the problem was because she's my closest ally.

when she opened up, she told me that she decided to do a little gbaje gbaje, ie do a little runs, she booked an appointment with a man and when she reached the said hotel, she and the Man started romancing and kissing and after awhile, the man started hissing uncontrollably, she inquired from the man what the problem was, he told her that what he wanted to take from her has been taken by someone else, in her confused state, she asked the man what he meant by that, the man looked her into her eyeballs and told her that she's empty, that what he intended taking from her has been taken by another person, he counted the said amount they bargain and handed it over to her and ordered her to get out of the hotel premises. I tried to console her by telling her that the man didn't mean what he said, that maybe his manhood disappointed him, he said those to cover his shame and I also advice her to be very careful because Xmas it at hand, immediately I told her those, she became relieved and stopped crying but I know right inside of me, that what the man said wasn't a joke at all.

when we got home, the news didn't go down well with her mother as tears started rolling down her cheek, she is planning a way to take her daughter to different prayer houses.

Now what exactly is this man talking about, what exactly did he take from her, is it her womb, destiny or what?
please house, any advice for this kid cousin of mine?
or way to find out what has been taken from her and get her liberated.

Showing a random, unknown, unverified picture of a "dead" person is your proof of a "genocide"? You must think I was one of your pea-brained, utterly gullible member of your IPOB cult group abi? Swine!

Anger And Vengeance Is Taking The Best Part Of Me

hello nairalanders,

Sorry to disturb your peace but this has been going on in my mind for long and I really need suggestions on how to overcome it. I gave in to ire/anger and it's gradually taking the best part of me since I made a little discovery about my wife's past and how she lived her life while in the campus. I will try and make it as snappy as possible in order not to make you spend much of your time on my case.

Now, it goes this way, my wife came from a middle class family and she attended one of the best and prestigious higher institutions in the country, they're not too rich and they're not poor, infact, their family name can't be in the same sentence with poverty. She had everything she needed and lived her life to the fullest while in the campus, she flirted with and dated the best guys in the campus, she visited many night clubs and other exuberant and flamboyant life style that pertains to the campus.

Now on my own part, I attended one of the Colleges of Education that littered our country,
I did everything all by myself, I sponsored myself throughout my stay in the college, I did all manner of odd jobs to survive, sometimes, I would miss lectures due to lack of cash, no one to assist, all these limitations made me not to pay attention towards the opposite sex as I was busy struggling to survive and hoping unto God for a miracle.

Right now, all I am feeling is anger, ire, all I want now is vengeance knowing fully well that while I was suffering and struggling to survive, fasting without praying, carrying bricks and block from one floor to the other, jumping from one market to the other hawking my wares, that my wife was busy somewhere enjoying and partying away her future, right now, I want to have my revenge, I want to live those life that I wasn't opportune to live, I want to flirt and have fun with many ladies both young and old, I want to visit as many night clubs as possible now that money is flowing in, I careless about the consequences and how she may feel, these are exactly what I'm feeling now.

this can't keep troubling me that's why I brought it here for suggestions and elderly advice.
