Even angels & the 3 wise men celebrated his birth when the whole world barely have a knowledge of him. How much more now that the gospel has been preached almost throughout the world.

GOTVee:
Even though I'm a born again Christian, any Christian that participates in the celebration of Xmas will end up in Hell. The bible commands we Christians to celebrate the death of our lord Jesus (Luke 22:19b; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26) and not his birth. Any Christian celebrating what is contrary to the bible commandment will end up in eternal pain. Do not celebrate Xmas to avoid regrettable consequences. Jesus was mentioned in the Holy Quran but you'll never find any of our Muslim brothers and sister celebrating his birth

Reasons why most of their ladies prefer to marry or date Nigerians.

Most of those MDAs bring more value and development to the country than the two legislative arms combined.
For instance, how do you expect the National Bureau of Statistics or Nigeria Institute of Oceanography & Marine Research to generate revenue into the national purse? Most of these MDAs are not set up for revenue generation for crying out loud. They are there as drivers of national development.
It is due to the ineptitude & cluelessness of this current administration that is making us have this discussion in the first place. Compelling all MDAs to generate revenue will only add to the hardship already prevalent in the country, all in the name of meeting up target.

Mere looking at him, one can tell he looks like a useless man & a societal misfit.

It's a long story, but I'll try to keep it short.
It all started way back several hundreds of years ago when Israel was attacked by different invaders, from the Romans to the crusaders, to the byzantine, to the ottoman etc. This forced the Jews to abandon their territory & fled to various parts of the world, the reason why we have the American Jews, German Jews, Russian Jews etc today.

Fast forward, after the casualty suffered by the Jews during the 2nd world war, the United Nations deemed it necessary to bring them together & return them to their traditional land, but alas, their former territory has been taken over by Arabians, majority of which are Palestinians.

After several resistance from the Arab world, an agreement was reached to cluster the Jews at a close distance to Jerusalem - because of the remains of Solomon's temple there, which is dear to them. This led to their relocation from across the globe back to their territory in 1948 & making Tell Aviv the capital.

In 1967, a coalition of Arabian nations viz Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Syria and Jordan jointly decided to invade & overwhelm Israel under the cover of the night, which resulted in defeat for the invaders. 20,000 Arabian soldiers were lost in the 6 days that the war lasted, while Israel only recorded less than 1,000 casualties.

In oder to guide against future occurrence, the Jews decided to take over the border regions & territories where the enemies invaded through, namely gollan heights from Syria, Jericho from Jordan, part of West Bank from Palestinians as well as Negev desert & mount Sinai from Egypt. The take over of Negev desert & mount Sinai however led to the cut-off & seclusion of Palestinians in the Gaza city, away from other Palestinians in the West Bank. This has resulted in incessant attack on Israel from the Gaza strip on Israel & resultant resistance from Israeli soldiers.

So, the terrorism that Israel is facing now, is primarily from Palestinians who have vowed to see Israel wiped off the surface of the earth & also felt slighted for not being recognized all along as a sovereign country. They are not even embracing a two-state solution in the region, as their claim is that the territory belongs to them.

If you ask me, I don't see this tussle between them abating anytime soon.

Kenpaly:
When did the war started and pls what is the original cause of the war.

He remains the best out of the lot contesting for presidency

Pakute:
Do I need to remind ipob pigs that there is sit at home today and Simon Ekpa is locking up their parents at home.

This fraud too would go to church and call himself a Catholic saint.

B for Bola also

jaytii:
B for Buhari
B for Biden

"Great" leaders
Nothing to make a fuss about here, old age is a curse humans have to live with.

I wish I could like your comment a million times. You just succeeded in penning down my thoughts. I really wonder how our youths can be so forgetful, so soon. Sacrificing their today & future on the altar of money politics.
A vote for BAT or Atiku is a vote for bigger calamity or disaster than what Buhari has served us. I became a loner when I campaigned against Buhari back in 2014/15. These people don't have our interest at heart. They are only after their ambition, ego and pockets.
I feel ashamed to be called a Nigerian right now. Gosh!

Rebuke:
Smh, bird of a feather, we aren't surprised at all.

Trust me, Tinubu time will be more disastrous should he ever become the president.

Unfortunately, some senseless youths are still queuing behind the old men and defending them at all cost.

Funny enough, anytime we say these men are too old to lead Nigeria, they start comparing them with the U.S President. Dumbos don't know that the US system is built in such a way that even with or without their president things still function appropriately. Their presidents will not leave their country to go seek for medical help or treatment somewhere in a foreign country and even stay their for months, expenses on the tax payers.

Shame on everyone of yhu rooting for these old selfish and power hungry men, people that will order the police to shoot at yhu for protesting and demanding for yhur right....yhu probably want more bullets to yhur skulls, shameless and senseless youths.


I will be making a statement with my own PVC 2023, if I will be the only one to vote for Peter Obi, I won't mind. Atleast, I can laugh at yhur calamity with the chiken come home to roost.

Bunch of failures & wicked souls!

One thing is certain, PYO will ordinarily not have the audacity to challenge BAT if he doesn't have the backing of his principal. The body language of party leaders at the VIP stand says it all.

Due to arrive today... like seriously? Someone that has embarked on the return trip back to England since.

Arthur hit headlines last year after he married his nine wives in a joint ceremony.

A young man who married nine wives has given insight into their s#x life, according to a report by DailyStar UK.

According to him, he has a s#x roaster, but it hasn't quite gone to plan.

The report revealed that the man identified as Arthur O Urso, from Brazil, found the timetable to be a major turn off.

He said: "Our s#x life is really fun and pleasurable, and initially I tried to have s#x by appointment.

"But following a timetable caused a lot of problems and sometimes I felt like I had to have s#x because of the schedule, and not for pleasure.

"On other occasions I had s#x with one wife while thinking about another."

Arthur hit headlines last year after he married his nine wives in a joint ceremony.

He aimed to "celebrate free love" and "protest against monogamy" – but the nuptials weren't legally binding as polygamy is illegal in Brazil.

Like with any marriage, there have been ups and downs.

One wife has already decided she wants to divorce from the group.

Arthur revealed: "She wanted to have me all to herself. It didn't make sense – we have to share. I was very sad about the separation and even more surprised by her excuse.

"She said that she was missing a monogamous relationship."

And it’s been tricky for Arthur to strike a good balance in the bedroom too.

Instead of scheduling in steamy sessions, he’s decided to base his s#x life on instinct.

He admitted: "It doesn't take long to get attention or affection when you have that many wives.

"It didn't seem right so we got rid of it and now the s#x flows naturally, it's been great.

"It is very fun, pleasurable and unique to experience everything collectively, and they are all very different in bed.

"One of them, I won't name her to keep her privacy, likes to be dominant and I like a woman who tells me what she wants."

While Arthur insists his wives don't mind how often the others m#ke love to him, he says jealousy crops up when it comes to gift giving.

He added: "When I have given one of them an expensive gift and another a smaller or cheaper one, there has been jealousy among them.

"They all demand attention, affection and s#x to be part of our everyday life, and I can't do more for one than the other.

"I'm still learning about our relationship."

Augustwife:
I had to open a new moniker so I can rant in peace. My head is full, so it's going to be a long post .

I got married to the love of my life 2017 (we started dating 2009) and we have two wonderful children.
He loves me (I know for sure), doesn't cheat too and my in-laws are the most wonderful people on earth ( my mil especially).

We have a joint business but the bad part :he is addicted to alcohol.

He wasn't like this before we got married, he used to drink occasionally so I can't really tell how we got here.

It's so bad that he can't go a day without it. Once he can't lay his hands on alcohol he will begin to shiver like a malaria patient.

This addiction has gotten us into debts that I had to pay with my savings on several occasions.

I'm talking of debts of 120k, 167k, 136k e.t.c. He's takes several loans from loan sharks , drinks like no tomorrow.

He has wrecked our business and only with the help of God was I able to rebuild It by taking loans and paying back.

We even decided he gets a job so he can be more responsible but after working for a year he had nothing to show for it.

Twice his parents had to take him to a therapist but it was all in vain as he would go back to drinking.

My head is scattered,I can't think straight, it's making me hate him. I tried leaving a few weeks ago , I went back to my mother's house but trust my mama, she begged me to go back and my mother in-law too.

I don't even know what to do, my mental life is zero, I have withdrawn from everyone, I'm practically in poverty due to this addiction
He is a wonderful man BUT this addiction is a very big problem. We have prayed, fasted, gone to doctors but it's still there.

I don't know what to do .

Let him/her who is without sin (one addiction or another) be the first to cast aspersion.
Woman, your own is relatively better and your problem solvable. Since you mentioned that this man is a wonderful man, the least you can do is to be there for him at this rock-bottom stage of his life. Let him go for deliverance (I suggest MFM version). You can also visit any winners chapel to see the pastor, before long you shall testify.

Oyeniyi Iwakun, a former postgraduate student of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Kaduna, who renounced his studentship to protest the killing of Deborah Samuel in Sokoto State, talks about his recent action and how it has affected him

Who is Oyeniyi Iwakun?

My name is Oyeniyi Oyewole Iwakun. I am 31 years old. I am from Ondo State. I have a first degree in Political Science from the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State. I graduated in 2013. Subsequently, I worked briefly as a maritime reporter and did some other personal engagements. I did my national service in the Karu Local Government Area of Nasarawa State. I am a Christian although I am not religious. I am more of a liberal thinker.

Recently, you renounced your studentship of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, after putting in for a Master’s programme in International Relations following the death of a 200-level student of the Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto, who was lynched by a mob for alleged blasphemy. How did you receive the news of her killing?



When the news of the murder of the young lady, Deborah Samuel, got to me, it was sad. The video was even circulated on social media of how she was helplessly stoned in broad daylight in the full glare of the public, while people watched in excitement. As if that was not enough, she died and people set her ablaze and made a video in broad daylight, and they were excited. The reaction that followed was that some major elites from that zone, who should have condemned the act, also came to justify the killing. It was highly inhuman. As an activist, I am an advocate for equity, equality and justice. This has nothing to do with the late Deborah being a Christian. If it had happened to a Muslim anywhere, I would have taken the same decision.

Why did you choose to study at the ABU?

I moved to the North to study after graduating from the OAU. I felt I should have a mixture of experience and be able to interact with more Nigerians, so I felt I should go to the ABU, Zaria, as one of the reputable universities in the North. So, I applied and was admitted. After the interview, being the first on the admission list for that department, they felt my performance was so exceptional and recommended that I take up Comparative Politics, an area where they were experiencing a shortage of staff as students did not want to go into the area. They felt if I picked that up, I would become an asset to the university. I already paid my tuition, got accommodation and some other things, but the ASUU strike sent us home. I was offered admission in January 2020, but I applied last year. I am a newly-admitted student.



What has been your experience so far?

My experience during my short stay in Zaria is one filled with a high level of discrimination, segregation, hostility and a sense of discrepancy between the North and the South. If you wear an English outfit, nobody would want to communicate freely with you except people from the South. At one point, I was at a loss trying to locate my department. I spoke to about five people until one managed to respond to me because I didn’t begin my conversation with ‘As-salamu alaikum’.

The OAU should pass as the most religious school in the world but the most liberal and peaceful. There is no sensitivity of being a Christian or Muslim or northerner or southerner. We are humans and students, and we interact as such. In the ABU, you cannot talk in a liberal form. You cannot express your idea on an issue. Before you know it, someone is already picking an offence. I lived off-campus, and in my apartment, I didn’t feel secure sleeping or talking to people. Those who have been there before you will tell you that you have to be very careful with the way you dress and be watchful about what you say even while trying to express your reservation about things that are going wrong.

You cannot put your shoes on the table and expect that you will come back to meet them. Some children will just come and pack them, and there is nothing you can do. If you mistakenly open your room; even while you are inside, some people will come in and pack your belongings and you cannot even report to the police. The system is totally compromised. So, when I saw the video, I felt that it had a similar feature to my experience in Zaria. I also saw that the level of the demand for justice was too poor, and as a human, I felt the only thing I could do to protest the unjust killing of Deborah Samuel was to renounce my studentship.

People have said you were hasty in your decision and that you’re trying to use the death of Deborah to chase clout and gain popularity. What is your response to this?

That is a diversionary strategy. In February 2006, Florence Chukwu, an English teacher in Bauchi State, seized the Qu’ran from one of her pupils, who was reading it while the English class was in progress, to ensure that the student concentrated. For this professional conduct, a Muslim mob was incited against her and she was killed as well as 20 other Christians. On a similar note, on March 21, 2007, a Muslim mob murdered one Mrs Christiana Oluwatoyin, a teacher at the Government Secondary School, Gombe. Her crime was that she touched a bag allegedly containing a Qu’ran. Even though she did not know the bag contained a Qu’ran. Without asking her, she was described by the Muslim mob to have desecrated the Qu’ran and she was murdered in cold blood. Up to date, we don’t know what has been done to the murderers of those people.
In 2016, the wife of a Deeper Life pastor told a Muslim man praying in front of her shop to move away as he was obstructing her business. She had repeatedly told this same man not to pray in front of her shop but for strange reasons, he continued to do so. The lady insisted and he accused her of blasphemy, incited a mob against her, and murdered her. There are countless instances where senseless violence and killings have been recorded in northern Nigeria. Shall I reference the religious riot and killings that took place in the North just because of an article written in the ThisDay Newspaper in 2002, when Silverbird wanted to host the Miss World Beauty Pageant in Abuja?


Even though I condemn derogatory statements and talks that can defame the prophet, God, or Jesus Christ, no one under the constitution of Nigeria has the right to incite a mob against another Nigerian. You cannot be a judge in your own case. When someone feels aggrieved, the law has a place for you to seek redress. In the South, you rarely see anyone being killed or a mob being incited to kill because Jesus Christ has been blasphemed. Every day, Ogun, Sango or whichever god from the South has been desecrated but nobody has been killed because of that. For someone to say I am in Zaria and something happened in Sokoto and I am concerned means that that person is inhuman and does not understand humanity. This is just a symbol of saying I and others like me must not be a victim before we raise our voices against the incessant irrational killings in the North.

How will you guarantee that this move does not come off as being an offshoot of Islamophobia?

It is a wrong impression. I am married to a Muslim. I am close to many Islamic families. I have friends, who are Muslims, and I have not been so hostile to them. If this incident had happened to a Muslim lady, I would have made the same decision. If it had occurred in the South, I would have renounced my studentship in such an environment. It is a way of protesting the inhuman killing. It has nothing to do with religion.

Have the school authorities reached out to you to discuss the renouncement or given a space for dialogue?

There have not been such moves from authoritative sources at the school. However, some people, who claimed to be representatives of the school, have called. We are in a country where insecurity is at its peak; so, I am being very careful. I have been receiving threats here and there from people online from our northern friends. Their actions toward me show that they are in support of the incessant killings. I have not got any calls from the registrar or head of the department or the school’s public relations officer. Nobody has called, and there has not been any assurance to show that students in the school are safe. Immediately after I made my renouncement, I left for the South.

My close friends and neighbours are more interested in my property there than in my welfare. They have burgled my residence to take whatever for you to know that the decision I have taken is the right one. Nobody is safe over there. This is not about the young persons in the North. It is about leadership failure. This is a matter of law and the basic essence on which the foundations of society were laid.

Do you intend to continue your PG study somewhere else?



I had already incurred expenses of over N500,000. I had paid my tuition and rented an apartment off-campus as the hostel was not available. I had bought writing materials and some household appliances. In the first instance, when I got to Zaria, I had to lodge in a hotel for a while. Those were the expenses I incurred. Looking at studying in Nigeria? Yes. But, the challenge now is I don’t feel safe anywhere again. The protest I have made has been seen as an affront to them and they have begun to threaten rather than condemn in totality and reassure me of my safety in the North. I have been condemned. Some have said I could go to hell or go join Deborah in the grave.

I am not going to join in insulting your prophet, but I am in for your faith challenge. However, I choose to tweak the challenge like this: If Jesus Christ is Lord & there is no other way to reach God but through him, may the gospel of Jesus Christ & the overwhelming compulsion to turn to him, greet you everywhere you turn to this weekend (even in your dreams). And I dare Mohammed to come & punish me today if he's actually sent from God.

On a final note, let me drop this with you: Mohammed was just a mere being like you & I. The use of prophet title to qualify him is laughable. A prophet in the real sense means someone who can forecast the future or someone who hears/receives from God directly. From my findings, Mohammed doesn't tick these boxes. That said, saying people blaspheme against him is also wrong, as you can only blaspheme against a deity (or God). And to think that Allah (who muslims claim sent him) can be blasphemed without repercussions, but a redline is crossed & arms are picked up each time Mohammed is been spoken ill of, is one of the most ridiculous things I have seen in my years on earth. Mohammed is not God, neither is he a deity, he's just a mortal being like you & I. That's why we Christians don't worship our prophets - Elisha, Elijah, Jeremiah etc, we only worship Jesus Christ (God in human form), the same Jesus that Quran affirms is coming back at rapture. Know this and know peace!

adams123:
Guy, you are insulting Prophet Muhammad and calling him fake? Please, will you do me a favour by going into faith contest with me?? How do I mean? I'll pray to ALLAH (GOD ALMIGHTY) that we Muslims worship to punish you to day one way or the other for insulting HIS Prophet & you should pray to whom ever you serve to avert that calamity( meaning, nothing at all that is bad happens to you today) Do you agree? And this plead is for any Christian that trust his faith. I'm patiently waiting. Thanks

I wish I could like your comment a million times.

paramakina202:
The North have a radical christian faithfuls who is not afraid to practice their religion even in the face of constant persecution.
They are brave warriors of Christ.Even Deborah's opening statement on the whatsapp group chat was ''Holy Ghost Fire '
Rest in peace saint Deborah.

It's not bad to start small. Even God started human existence small (Adam & Eve). For the area of land mentioned, you should have about 250 palm tree stands. For the second part of the question, 3-4 years before fruiting is relative. This depends on the variety you're planting, as well as the number of months the seedlings have spent in the nursery.

Nice!
However, I feel a lot of spaces are left unutilized in-between your maize. I understand it won't allow for easy operation of your weeder, but then again, you need to consider other revenue generating crops that could fit well into those spaces.
You may want to consider greens (amaranth or celosia), okro, or even melon.

From your submission, I can tell you are a knowledge enthusiast. Because of this, I am going to share my (on the ground) experience when I visited Israel on academic mobility a few years ago. I was hosted by the Agricultural Research Institute in Beesheva, just a few km from Gaza. Residents of this city & most other cities in Israel don't sleep with their two eyes closed for the fear of incessant missile from Gaza & attack from other Palestinians. There are bomb shelters positioned at strategic places all over these cities just so people might take cover when the worst happens. Israeli soldiers are the most provoked military personnels in the world, no thanks to the continuous provocation from Palestinians. I was broken when I got to know that an average Palestinian child is being indoctrinated from cradle to see an Israeli as an enemy & attack them whenever they see them. I can go on & on. It may interest you to know that the Al Qasa mosque that is being referred to as the 3rd holist site in Islam is positioned in the middle of King Solomon's temple. Yes, you read that right - the famous temple in the bible.
That said, even though I am not in support of taking of lives, we also need to understand that there is a long-lived conspiracy theory against the Jews & sponsored by the Islamic world. One of the reasons I can never believe any news about Israel coming from Aljazera.

waldigit:
Bros I don't know. Again I don't engage in illogical reasoning. I don't engage in erroneous conclusion on matter I am not privy to. This the way most folks in Nigeria reason. I apply all the lessons I learn in my philosophy class to my everyday life. From the antecedent of past events Palestinians and Islamic world and Isreal have issues on Jesrsalem. Plalestinians has many times in the past his under the guise of praying in that same mosque to perpatrate trouble. So with those fact how do you expect me to take a position except there is iron clad evidence to prove who the aggressor is? Logical reasoning is not a culture in black Africa world. I am black but I don't engage in it.

And who among the members have put forward a conplaint to u that they are being forced or hand twisted to pay tithes? Have a look around u, members of Winners are one of the financially Independent individuals u can find in the world today. So, stop being deceived!

I'm not too impressed with your 'unhealthy smartness' brova. Remember two wrongs don't make a right. There are surely better ways of proving your smartness to her. And for your trophy chick, if she can cheat WITH you, then she can cheat ON you!

Good for her that she didn't agree to it.

omega25red: how the hell do you even consider marrying someone who you know is as you say a perpetual liar.

we have them all around.

It is rather unfortunate that people in whom we have discovered love could as well be a source of heartache through their infidelity or nefarious attitude, while letting them off our love-hook will bring about the desired peace of mind. which of these would you prefer?

Bearing in mind that marriage is a "for better for worse.... till death do us part" mutual agreement, would you go ahead with a partner who although loves you but is a perpetual liar?

But why wld some retarded not give value to human life all in the name of religion?
