This is not an ordinary help.

Half of the guy is living and breathing within the lady. The guy would have died as a result and they were together before he denoted his kidney and the lady must have known before the donation that the guy loved her and what’s to move the relationship higher. Any lady out there knows which guy among her many friends wants them beyond friendship.

The lady would have stopped him, she didn’t because she was selfish. If a guy who is interested in you starts buying you expensive gifts or about to sacrifice their lives in other to save yours, you should stop them and tell them that, you don’t love them the way they do to you and despite their sacrifice, the relationship will not go anywhere.

Don’t wait until you have fully benefited from their live saving sacrifice to tell them No.

lol, the lady couldn't stop him, not necessarily because she is selfish but because it was a matter of life and death, she had to save her life.
l agree with your post though.

duni04:
Guy didn't play it well. He should have warmed his way to the girl before popping the question. If he'd played his cards well and waited a lil longer after the surgery for the girl to realise what he did for her and trip, she'd have said yes. He just gave her his kidney and proposed to her. That's like blackmail.
She obviously said no cos she didn't want the guy to think she was obliged to do anything for him cos of his kidney.

You have a point.

peddy007:
Seeing her with another man would kill him,women are indeed selfish, so she's too pretty for him I guess while the cute ones held on to there kidneys, we learn everyday.

I'm not saying he shouldn't help her with the kidney in other circumstances though, just that generally in other matters men shouldn't make themselves uncomfortable to please a lady.

Reference:
Thank God the world does not run by our standards. Just look at the replies. Nigerians cannot gove to church in tithing, They cannot give to their communities in decent behaviour. And they donot understand what organ DONATION means. To us it must all have a personal benefit or our church can collapse, our society can be reduced to a game reserve and sick people can die for all they like.

And we expect to lve in a better society that this. Talk of expecting lemonade from hibiscus leaves.

l understand you, but here the guy proposed after donating the kidney, perhaps his belief was that she would begin to love him in turn because of his sacrifice even though he knew he has been the CEO of the friendzone, he was expecting to break out of the zone with this and it didn't work, this is a different topic all together from what you're blabbing about.

SmartyPants:
But has the guy come to tell you that his proposal was hinged on the giving of his kidney? He sounds perfectly satisfied with himself.

He may be pretending but dying inside especially when she goes into a relationship with the one she loves. This is the problem with nice guys and why dem dey carry last sometimes. Guys should also learn to look out for their interest first just like the ladies.

maasoap:
Everyone but you could see the reason why the man donated his kidney. Well, he got what he deserved. It should have been marriage proposal and actual wedding before the surgery if that was what he wanted from the beginning. By putting that forward, the lady in question would have thought better.
No time for dulling.

The only problem with this is that such a marriage would have been full of problems, because it seems to me that the guy has already been friendzoned a long time ago, he should have been sensitive to this, and the motive for giving his kidney would then be only out of a desire to see her live.
ln summary the guy should have known his status with her a long time ago. This is the problem with the friendzone, such a wayward zone.
But the girl should just marry him though, so as not to appear ungrateful, even this option is a complicated one.

Nigerian Breweries now also in partnership with the nff.

;DAbegii! I'm a fan of the real Super Eagles. Not the the home based crap team ;DAbegii! I'm a fan of the real Super Eagles. Not the the home based crap team

But the home-based team you call crap is the real foundation of Nigerian football.
Where would Rohr look to quickly for possible talents when he can't get those foreign based players?
l agree their standard and quality is still below par but that is more of the Nigerian factor at play than it is about their talent or abilities.

There is no absolute winner, you can only discuss what each country is doing right or wrong.

Kenyanstar:
Despite all the evidence both pictures & references Nigerian have refused to admit that Kenya is way ahead of them in every sector. The above pictures of our railway upgrade is a perfect example of the steps that Kenya has initiated in domineering the import market to its neighboring countries.

My point is simple, there is no basis for comparison, railway development is ongoing in Nigeria too, and it's foolish to compare it's scale to that of Kenya.
Kenya is not ahead of Nigeria in every sector, that's a misleading title by the OP.
For example there are threads on Nairaland that shows so many indigenous industries in Nigeria l never knew existed, and there were so many of them which l verified myself, unfortunately these threads were tainted and inspired by tribal slurs but informative anyway.

The informal Nigerian private sector is huge, although l agree Nigeria is lagging behind Kenya in terms of public services and some major infrastructures.

mtis:
Totally agree with you. 5% growth in such an environment is a good show of how resilient Kenyan economy is.Seriously we only need to readjust our priorities an we can hit 9 % or 10% growth rate.

Yeah l think Kenya and Ethiopia would catch up with Morocco very soon at this rate, though Ethiopia has devalued their currency.
Kenya and Ethiopia were once on thesame level with Ghana, at about 45Billion dollars in 2013, but now see how far they have come in just 4years, though population also plays a major role.
Some of the countries with perhaps the brightest future in Sub Saharan Africa though are North Sudan and Rwanda.

Kenyanstar:
You are incorrect, the ADB report was that the average of almost 95% of countries in Africa grew at a maximum rate of 3%... The exceptinal countries that grew at over 5-6% were Kenya, Ethiopia, Ghana and Rwanda.

This is what was reported though...

Ok then, l hope you sustain it though, from 2009-2014, we grew at an average of 6% even at a GDP of 300Billion dollars and a rebased GDP of 594Billion dollars in 2014, but now in 2017, we could only manage a 1% growth(after recession in 2016) and a 390Billion dollar GDP.

Kenyanstar:
You are very correct in your informed view.... The rapid development happening in Kenya is the reason why the GDP is growing at 5-6% despite the politics....
KENYA INDUSTRIES
TEA FACTORY & TEA ESTATES(farms)

This is nice but was thesame for most African countries in 2017, majority grew at 5-6%.
The African Development Bank just released this report of growth across Africa.

TheGoodJoe:
Iwobi lost balls today because he was doing his best to make shots through a metal door to make things happen. The Tottenham set up was resolute and it needed something special to unlock it.

Iwobi found that special pass and delivered the pass of the match. Unfortunately, Lacazette failed to convert it.

Props to Iwobi.

Yeah, rather than play in a hurry, he was taking his time to decipher the possible loopholes in the Tottenham defence, losing the ball several times in the process. Although he finally unlocked the defence, Lacazete just couldn't chip that ball over the keeper.

realpoacher:
Hate!.. Hate!!.... Hate!!! Is all I see

There's no hate there, the guy you quoted gave some critical analysis.

Icon4s:
I tell you, that guy has the habit of saying some weird things that keeps you wondering if everything is alright.

l think he needs the attention of Safarigirl badly.

So Lacazete nor still won get sense even with the presence of Abumeyang?

ln a warm up friendly, Nigerian superfalcons defeated Camp Academy 3-0. Rasheet Ajibade, Yakkubu Aminat and Chinanza Uchendu got the goals.

Coach Thommas Denerby was present.

AreaFada2:
But you will not blame car maker for making cars that can be involved in accidents? Neither car maker nor God/ creator is to blame.

Without going religious about Adam and Eve, simply see it as anything that has a beginning must have an end.
If we say we die because God punished Adam and Eve, what sin did trees and animals commit to die?

A big strong California oak can live for over 100 years. But some get blown down by wind or storm in their prime, other get infected by disease and die. In the same way people will die at different ages from different things. But it still does not diminish the sanctity or importance of every human life. Even assuming excluding religious stuff.

your point is good, it's just that the oak or plant isn't aware of anything. There's no perception of self in them but this is not the case with humans and some higher animals, so humans have knowledge which brings sorrow, and the more knowledgeable we are, the more mysterious life seems to be.

Butterflyl10n:
You are missing the point.

I never negated anything. A man says he is a prophet and if you are a skeptic you would ask him to prophesy so you see how it would come to pass and he prophesies not once but 3 times and they all happen as declares.

1. He says ebony reigns will die (he specifically says her name)

2. He says she will die early this year (she does in February which is real early this year)

3. He says she will die via a car accident. Not a train or plane or sickness or ship but specifically a car accident (February 8th she dies in a car accident)

Those are his fruits of prophecy and they came to pass. His life as a prophet is a different thing but his words as a prophet have been tested and proven to be true.

Was the message meant for everybody or for Ebony specifically? if it was meant for Ebony to change her ways, my question is why should she trust the prophet?

Also l really need to see the video where the prophet Said all of these in details because in the video l watched, the guy didn't speak English.
The only information l got from Ghanian websites was a vague prophecy from a prophet who prophesied that a top musician would die this year.

Butterflyl10n:
You cannot assess them without their fruits. That scripture says BY THEIR FRUITS you shall know them and not BEFORE THEIR FRUITS you shall know them.

Their fruits have to manifest itself before you can know them when you check their fruit in line with the word of God.

This is what God checks for. He sends you to do something and you obey. Obedience is better than sacrifice. Your obedience toward God brings you righteousness.

Exactly and many of the fruits they manifest are terrible. My point in this is that your previous arguement negating the need for assessment of the so called prophets was wrong. We can't just listen to any prophet simply because he calls himself a prophet.

Butterflyl10n:
I don't see this as a punishment. Read my post again. I said she was probably saved from herself and I said she may even be with God now. How is that punishment? How is being saved and being with God punishment?

Talking about prophecies or prophets who are usually of questionable character, do you forget that God used a harlot called Rehab? Or that God used Noah even though he was a drunk?, Jacob was a liar, Gideon was fearful, David was an adulterer and murderer, Peter denied Christ, etc

These were all imperfect people yet God used them. Assess the message and not the messenger.

Was the prophecy accurate, YES
Did it happen as said, YES

Regarding pastors who also have died same way, The final judge is God for some he allows them to come early while for others they remain till later. The owner and planter of the seed, when he comes for the harvest decides which to take and which to leave for later.

Consider the case of Hezekiah after God decided to change his decree over his life as declared by Isaiah. Hezekiah went on to give birth to Manasseh who ruled Judah for 55years under the most evil reign they had ever experienced.

He single handedly destroyed all the good his father Hezekiah had done.

Lol, whatever happened to the scripture that warns....
Beware of false prophets, for by their fruits ye shall know them.
lt seems Jesus obviously wanted us to assess them first before believing their messages.

Naijaphobia:
So sad seeing this...If only he spent his time in the spiritual gym developing his spiritual muscles.

RIP gallant soldier

How do you know he didn't develop his spiritual muscles? Africans sha.

Butterflyl10n:
Like I said, say what pleases you. It's your words and not mine.

I never said God killed her and no matter how hard you try to insinuate that, you will always come up empty.

An armed robber who chooses to ply that trade knows the outcome.

A prostitute knows the outcome of her trade

Her life was not lived in solitude. She influenced a lot of ghanaians be they young or old and her lyrics are often raw due to her genre of music. Surely such an influence wouldn't really be a positive one based on this and her rather sultry mode of appearance.

Like I said, I am not judging her. I am simply making my observations.

You and I do not hold the keys to her future so you cannot speculate about who she would become in future or how she would turn out. She was already running very fast along a sultry and depraved road at such a young age.

She may be with God now even and was probably saved form herself and at the same time others saved from her influence (who knows)

Sometimes we need to be saved from ourselves. God did not give her fame. Her choices did. Her choices gave her notoriety and not fame. She was known for the wrong things a lot.

Nude videos, always going around braless, sultry dressing, raw language, sex simulations on stage, etc.

I think she needed to be saved from herself. So young, yet so lost.

You see money while God sees a soul and money cannot be given in exchange for a soul or taken in exchange.

You are saying all these now because she died in the process and you see this as a punishment from God, you have the right to think so, but my question is..
lf God is in the business of correcting people, why use so called prophets(who are usually of questionable character and full of controversies), also why in our world today has he left so many like her to exist.
My third and final question is this... We have seen even the most fervent Christians and Pastors die this way, with no explanation, what assurance do you have to say she wouldn't have died even earlier if she was a gospel artiste or had chosen another path.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a Christian but l don't think these issues are as simple as you paint them here.

gypsey:
God must be a murdering ass hole, anybody who refuses to sing for God dies, what if she was a teacher, bus driver, mechanic, hairdresser or a prostitute will God still kill her for not prostituting for God?

Many Christians are the ones who drive people away from God these days with the way they paint their god. Their God in most cases is just a reflection of their ego.

gypsey:
so what you are trying to say is that God killed her for refusing to sing for God? what kinda God does that? what exactly has she done wrong? what if she chose to become a doctor? will she still die?

That's how he sounds, that God killed her for refusing to sing for him.

Thats true , The main reason i do this is to let Nigerians know we can demand more from our government. Countries with fewer resources are providing better for their citizens, let us all stop settling for less.
it is also kind of weird they are discussing their internal political issues on a Nigerian Website.
Heard of the sad news closing three Stations following the swearing in of the "Peoples President". Nigeria was in that same situation 1994.

Yah l get you, Nigerians are actually demanding of their Government, just that little or nothing has been done still. Nigeria has been on a downward lane in education and almost everything else since the military rule in 1983. Even now with democracy, things are not really as they should be and of course the sentiments online already shows that Nigerians want more, and it is a well known fact that the country is punching far below her weight
