Even Israelis are beginning to see the genocide being committed by their government...


Netayahu should just resign!

Like putin abi or like Buhari? Go and resign him nowwww.

pdppower:
Israelis themselves want the war to end, but Nairaland Israel supporters don't see anything wrong in the war.

what about hamas? Do they want an end to the needless war?

HacheNoire:
It’s too late already.

The reputation of Israel has been tarnished beyond repair.

If you ever want to be lynched anywhere, just identify as pro-Israeli supporter and see how bad it can get.


The Oscar winning movie- No Othet Land, has really exposed many to the ills and evils of the apartheid state.

Hamas still have theirs intact as a terror group that back down for now people of God.

Softmirror:
You mean the Israeli government have not been able to free these hostages for this long?! So what is all the boasting about Israel. What a shame!

what is the crying about also if hamas can afford to hold onto the hostages?

Where are the October 07 hostages to start with. Humanity now hve timetable of inhuman behaviour i guess.

They should relocate to Abuja until tinubu notices them.

Seun:
Nobody reported him to me.

i reported the accident scammer a few times qith the report button. Your website behaves mechanical some times.

In most of the posts and comments I saw above, unfortunately all I could see is frustrations, jealousy, ignorance, pride and deliberate mischief.
If the church is poor like to the popular saying, as poor as church rat, I know the many people speaking here would have balamed their God and accused them of laziness.
If it is easy to become billionaires by just starting a church, what stop many jobless wailers here crying more than the bereaved form a starting their own church, after all God does not belong to anyone in particular.
Stop and think, somebody who can legitimately support God's work with a billion naira , may not be a fool as a delusional mind of some people are deceiving them. They know something you don't know.
As long as some church leaders are not angels, there is room for little errors, but generalizing that for all pastors or criminalizing the entire church for it , is deliberate wickedness.
Despite, all the antics, falsehood and widespread online condemnation against the church and her leadership, is it not amazing that God is blessing and promoting the church?

I see misinterpretation of basic facts from the OP. The question should be "by churches scaling up their involvement in transport or travel, will it drive down average cost of travel for that church"?
Thats the main question to be answered and not why a catholic that's bigger in finances has no jets or poorer pastors. If those pastors are not wise and visionary like solomon plus rich, most folks around forming church supporter club will not fund them ooo.

Kaa4:
Was this statement made out of emprical research? While the rich pastors may be true, the wealth of the chuches may be deeply investigated before conclusion is reached.

To me, one the richest churches in the world is the Living Faith Church in Nigeria.

The exchange rate of the Naira regardless.

there is no universally accepted concept of wealth. It varies.

dominique:
Your darling Israel is one of the most gay countries in the world. Are you wishing that God should destroy Isreal?

God didn't say Isreal will be sin free no they were chosen among all the people to both suffer and demonstrate something crucial to others. To be a symbol to others among all tribes. Thats why God kept editing and adjusting their traditions in phases. To demonstrate what true relationships with God will eventually comme to entail.

It wasnt an election of future righteousness between all ethnic or racial nations.

There is something called economy of scales in life. It is a concept that transcends many areas of life.
Mariage, community, industry, home economics, family, civilization, urbanization, academics, and even ministry or church as we all like to call it.

Let me explain the concept with few examples.

Example one - Industry
If i have the task of producing a shirts with the inscription "JESUS IS LORD" on t-shirts, and i approach a printer(press), they will give me the a quote that breaks the cost into two main component. The static, unchanging part on one side, and the redundant parts that needs to increase as i print more shirts. That will be the impression or mold creating the unique inscription and then the ink used to create more inscriptions on more shirts. The impression or mold is of fixed cost and the ink used per shirt is of fixed cost also but with an interesting twist. The two cost will combine to give a lower per unit cost of printing each shirt. That means in simple terms, i get a cheaper deal per shirt as i print more shirts or more appropriately put, scale up my shirt production. Thats where the concept of economy of acales comes from. That is to say, scaling up production to reduce cost or improve economics of production on a per unit basis.


Example two - Family
Mr A has 2 children and Mr B, 50 children, all in school.
Mr A can afford to put his two kids in a school of N50,000 tuition. Mr B on the other hand will need N2.5m to put all his children in such a school and may be well served by establishing a school not far from home(transportation cost too) and enrolling his children there, then hopes the extra admissions from outsiders helps offset the bill in that school to his advantage.
If Mr B follows my advise, then he will have scaled up the size of his involvement in education to drive down per unit cost of educating his chidren on a basis, and that's what the economy of scale concept entails.
If Mr B and Mr A are neighbours, Mr A may even choose to enroll his kids in Mr B's school to save transportation cost.


Example Three - Education.
A university faculty has 20 competent lecturers, allowed to admit 500 students but have space to comfortably accommodate 1000 students. They may decide to actually admit the 1000 student and support the faculty with 10 junior lecturers to assist with aspect of the faculty that scales up with more student. Areas like examination script marking and supervision of exams or projects or material handling. At the end, if 500 students can offset the cost of paying 20 senior lecturers, then 10 extra hands can aid scaling up of faculty size to 1000, we may well say scale of exonomics has kicked in, and to good effect.

The main point - The church.
Finally let's come back to ministry or the church which is the focus of this topic.
Getting a jet does not conclusively connote wastage or avoidable luxury. It is all about the cost of the average travel by key members of the ministry involved. By scaling up their involvement in transport or travel, will it drive down average cost of travel for that church?
Thats the main question to be answered and not why a catholic that's bigger in finances has no jets compared to smaller churches.

Thats like saying because Holland or Belgium is smaller than Kaduna or Kwara state alone in Nigeria, they are being greedy by industrializing their country to be bigger and stronger economically than Nigeria.

Also the book of Luke. Jesus was joyful at 3-6 months into formation.

Asari Dokubo too was once in incarceration. Explains why they have no pictures of dead terrorists. None are dead. They just inching towards that oyel amnesty everyday.

LegendHero:
Make sense.

I want that to be like $70bn next year. We can do this.

after descouraging Japa hustlers abi?
I will like to see remittance by region. That other region that eats oyel money know why i am asking?

The war and not military operations. He knows the cost of WW3 with russia and few roque nations on one side on his beloved Rus.

Riggers doing the dirty jobs ahead of time.

Debt wasted is what leads to revolution. Just look at Kenyan and Ghana of recent.
They are constructing flyovers, highways and paying groundnut eaters in civil service. How will those create or aide creation of needs.

Correct one. At least we will the see faces of those bully hostesses and airborne agberos.

They said Naira shoul settle for around N700 a dollar when flloated. How far?

Hatred is a mental problem.

Do well to seek help before it corrupts your whole being.

If Adeleke wants to build a whole uni for AI, let's see the programs on offer in that university and a strategy to staff them effectively. Will the university curriculum come from NUC? If not from where?


This is overdo in my opinion. AI shouldn't need a whole school but a department under science and technology faculty at most.

Will it be a monotechnic? Thats one program they are building a while school/university for?

Wonderment.

Bobodee09:
Abia governor just took the same Islamic loan....we didn't see you people criticise him.

Hypocrites.

while i am no Abian, he took it to beat high interest rate, can qe say same of the islamist?

They used it to make Nigeria indebted to Islamic institutions and thus advance their cause.

Appletek:
When they were using Sukuk bonds to fix the roads in your region, why didn't you complain?

Or, you didn't have teeth then?

they should use sukuk bondagee loan to build their islamic region first and leave oyel money alone.

My region has no Niger River

Appletek:
This is dedicated to those who were saying this project is a phantom project.

still one based on crippling loans we are taking.

AI husband. Lol.

The list is funny. The list is an insurance policy.

Money mechanic charp charp. Cellotape paper scissors

Was expect an headline like :

US SPECIAL FORCES ARREST PUTIN.


LOL

Explains why cash inflow was reported to nhave increased for the businesses left behind.

Format your text well. 3.8 for repairs/maintenance but 3.6 for new.

Aftwr major companies exiting, it is normal the remaining ones experience improved patronage and thus cash inflow. It is also bound to happen because much cash now circulates.

APC and propaganda interpretation to simple, innocent facts.
