Growing up many many years ago in Nigeria, I insulted the hell out of Oyedepo. I will not lie. I was quite young and naive then.

My favourite name for him back then was OLE-DEPO (GOD Forgive me though)

There was even some tribalism to it because I was worried as why a YORUBA MAN will be making that much money in Igboland through DECEPTION.

I will go online back then and query why normal human beings will give a percentage of their salary to someone who was doing far better than most of them.

I saw them as mad or mentally unstable people.

I was very young and naive. Quite understandably.

But here is the mystery.

I have grown up, travelled out of the country and settled down to a very good life.

Every month though, I change a part of my small salary and send to the Church of David Oyedepo. A sizeable amount of my small money for his mission works. Without him asking me for a dime.

Same thing I fought against vehemently both online and offline.

I have not met him before. I have not attended his church before.

I am not under any mental, spiritual or emotional manipulation. Trust me on this.

Who can explain this?

What happened to me?

Oga, instead of giving to a billion dollar enterprise called RCCG, why dont you think giving to poor and hungry beggars by the streets, cripples, orphanages, etc will have the same effect? ? ? ? ?

plaetton:
Liar Liar.

Adeboye and Redeem Church, in their entire 50 or more years of existence, have never ever done anything meaningful to improve the lives of their ordinary members unless they are Redeem pastors ( who are in reality , Church franchise operators).
Don't take my word for it. Just ask anyone who attends a Redeem Church.

The Redeem Church is a business franchise, and more descriptively, an organized financial crime syndicate.

GBAM!!!!!

seunmsg:
Yeah, that’s why power has been very constant in most parts of Nigeria since the Obasanjo administration.

Have you returned your laptop to Amaechi?

LordReed:
Dude you already gave the game away with this statement:

You may not believe it but God's blessings has been more than enough for me.

Very clear you've bought into it hook, line and sinker.

Ask him whether he considers giving directly to a beggar, an orphanage, a cripple etc as sufficient.

purples25:
So we have negative mindsets about men but men don’t have that about us?

90% of the time, men will tell you exactly whats on their mind.

I am by no means saying men do not lie.

But the kind of funny response one will get from a woman for a perfectly innocent question only takes God to decipher.

Trymeee:
If you're in an advanced country, by now you will be in jail. No pun intended.

Do you know how many men are rotting in jail from COMPLETELY FALSE ACCUSATIONS by women in so called "advanced countries?"

MMempire:
Meeting a guy for less than a week and boom, you hear my birthday is next week.

What do you mean by next week? It will be tomorrow.

purples25:
Vice versa.

CAPITAL NO! NOT TRUE!

RollinTNDA:
your own wife will come and say you raped her and that same court system will put u behind bars.

That is why Nigeria is the best
Your so called advanced countries are nothing but advanced prison for men.

A lady can falsely accuse you of rap and you spend 40 years then get released when they find out she was lying

Continue defending a delusional judiciary system that is built to enslave you.
Advanced country my foot.

Women do it ALL the time. And thereby hurt the chances of real ra.pes being taken seriously. Many times the innocent man would have spent a lifetime in jail or even have been killed all for a petty lie.

AngelSlay:
Your Honour, with all due respect, this statement — ‘you know how ladies are’ — is not a defence, it’s an excuse rooted in stereotype. Consent is not a guessing game, and it is not based on outdated assumptions about how women ‘really’ feel.

When a woman says stop, the law requires that you stop. Period. No ‘but’, no ‘maybe she meant something else’. Consent must be clear, ongoing, and respected in real time — not reinterpreted later to suit the accused.

This is not about ‘how ladies are’. This is about the simple fact that when she withdrew consent, anything that happened after was against her will. And that, by law, is a crime. The defendant’s belief that he could ignore her words because of a stereotype is exactly why we have clear consent laws — to protect people from harm and from having their boundaries disregarded.

Alright, so what about the "stop" while you are already inside her. One more movement and its ra.pe.

purples25:
Men have many negative mindsets towards women, so they should be careful about who they mix with in the name of love vibes.

Really?

Women are the funniest ever.

Man: Good morning.
Woman: What do you mean by that?

Man: Hi, how are you are, do you have a minute?
Woman: You are very insensitive (slams down the phone)

Man: Hello Madam, something dropped from your purse.
Woman: How dare you talk to me, I am engaged.

I can go oooooooooon and ooooooon.

I have a headache.

Nonexisting1:
Have you been there before? Mtchew, there's nothing like mermaid. It's a myth they use to deceive little girl and to promote fictional movies.

What per cent of the oceans do you think man has explored?

plaetton:
Funny how the supposed mermaids seem to be wearing bras.
I wonder who their fashion designer and dress maker is .

Weak pictures. Jokes actually. There are more serious images and videos that could tempt one into believing its real. Probably CGI/ AI Generated.

This isnt to say there arent great mysteries beneath the waters. There are.

tctrills:
As usual, your argument is shallow. You want us to do the impossible, to trace the descendants of those who lived in the land before Israel. But what do we have? We have more than enough record of the Jews, who lived in that land so why is it a big deal to return their land to them with an apology letter. Why shouldn't the Jews occupy the West Bank?
Again, if the argument is that since the land was taken from the Jews, they have lost their right to it, then apply the same to the foolish Palestinians. Do they still have rights to the land after they lost it in war to the rightful owner?

What do you suggest the Palestinians do now, or where you suggest they should live.

Jakumo:
Sowore should enjoy his detention with those kidnappers occupying the same cell. Maybe he can teach them to be career activists like him so that they can make money from publicity stunts and noise making, rather than from their normal business of kidnapping.

Daejumong:
I can’t understand how a man would be wearing boxers outside the bedroom. This guy needs a good management team around him. The problem many African pastors have is that people are afraid to correct them believing they are higher beings who are answerable only to God. This creates a great problem for the pastor who can easily get self conceited and lose it yet people will keep hailing. Pastors must be answerable to elders in the church and the congregation. That is the way to keep the system healthy!

If Jesus is God the Son, you are also God the Son.

seunayantokun:
If you are caught in a network of lies, it takes a special divine military operation, for you to see things rightly.

Lol @ "special divine military operation" . . . . . no doubt that is what Israel believes it is doing.

Confirmation from the horses mouth of what rests behind some of the incomprehensible posts we see online pepertually supporting the government no matter what. So I advise good people not to burst an artery over these people as we have always known that many of them are paid to post what they post.

kitken:
I think say na only Africans get evil mind. So e reach everywhere... oyinbo too get there own wickedness.

Africans are learners in terms of wickedness beside white people.

Obakoolex:
Have never seen anyone directly or indirectly supporting amaechi online or offline, he can't win any state if given ticket

Interesting. Same here. I dont think I have come across one single person who says he or she is rooting for Amaechi for President either.

Bluntemperor:
Amaechi is a Joker and for a man dressing like the Traditional Emir in toga recently,just show you how Unserious he is.
Did he say 1st Year of Tinubu people were jumping into Lagos Lagoon - why not in Rivers- Portharcourt to increase the Tempo his lies?
Why has he not Informed Nigerians on the Transport Department Accountability?
- How Much Did he Purchased the Coaches- from China and Other places- $/NBillons to NIGERIANS?
-How much was the Revenues Collected?
How Much Per COACHES did he Purchased?
Why did he always Create Quarrel Everywhere,- e g The NPA-MD and Amaechi?
We want Accountability From Those Who- Ere in Govt And Have Served Nigerians Before!

As per the dress issue, he has a traditional title from Daura and thus the right to dress a certain way especially on certain occasions (such as the burial of a son of Daura)

tctrills:
You are just a little hypocrite. You are claiming that you spend your online energy fighting for Gaza and offline you spend your time fighting for victims of the Biafran genocide. Or may be you are just trying to be funny. You want us to believe that somehow, you fight for black Sudanese in Dafur offline. Comedy.

You presume way too much. I am actually writing a book on Darfur.

Again, your ignorance. Let's wrongly assume that colonialism and apartheid are taking place in Gaza, for you to believe that Gaza and the West Bank are the last frontier of open colonialism and apartheid shows that you have a long way to go.
Have you heard of Western Sahara, Tibet, Uyghur region. At least Western Sahara is right here in Africa. But then zero colonialism or Apartheid is taking place in Gaza or the West Bank. It is happening only in your mind.

You sound like a QAnon Far Right Trumpist. The sort of person who would say that Jesus was white, Trump is Christ and Israel are supreme beings.

You really need to grow up and discover the world for yourself. The more I discuss with you, the more 8 am convinced that you are another ignorant college kid that would protest without knowing why.

College kid? Then I must have registered on NL when I was three years old or thereabout. That was 16 years ago. A time at which I was already an Executive Director in a Multinational.

You presume way too much.

Softmirror:
Slumber? Hmmm.......the good thing is you said you are doing well for yourself which points to good things happening in your life.

Nigeria consists of over 200 million people. Wake up.

Softmirror:
You are doing well. You are not suffering are you suffering? So what is your complain all about? 😂😂😂

Enjoy. One day, prayerfully, people like you will awake from your slumber.
Goodluck.

Softmirror:
Hahaha hahaha hahaha 🤣 . The same answer. I am still waiting for that person that complains about hunger, suffering, affliction but when asked will be humble to say that they are hungry, suffering and afflicted by this government. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

So you are doing well for yourself. Lol 😂

So this is what you can come up with? Laughter about suffering? And let us say you come across a poster that says they are suffering (I see many admit same here by the way - and the economic realities have frankly gotten to everyone to varying degrees) - what exactly would you say to such a person? Simply laugh at them and deride them for their suffering I suppose?

Softmirror:
You must really be suffering sha. Your choice of words suggest so.

I am qute well taken care of, dont worry about me. However I am old enough, awake enough, conscious enough, sensitive enough and responsible enough to see and feel what is happening in the country and all around me.

No one can pay me what you are paid to write what you write.

Secondly. Let us assume I was really suffering as you say. Tell me, is that an argument in your favor or against you? Is that some sort of point?

immaculatesense:
Now I know that Ameachi is just catching CRUISE with the Presidential hullabaloo thing.
He looks to be taking it just for a joke.

Not many people realise the bold is the word BAT was trying to say when he got tongue twisted and said balablu bulaba.

“The worst INEC chairman in the history of Nigeria is Mahmood Yakubu,” he said.

Spare a thought for Maurice Iwu the unforgettable.

Softmirror:
Prosperity is here to stay. And stay it wil forever. Amen.

Nobody can use 'hunger' to campaign anymore. The prices of food keeps coming down. Market prices of other items has stabilize no more inflation. An inevitable phase we have left behind. Forward we move into prosperity. Before 2027 this administration would have recorded a massive success in the nations fight against insecurity. Amen!

Dont worry, in less than two years from now you will stop singing this paid-for song. No one will be paying you anymore even if affliction arises a second time.

SultanYoung:
Eazi is the kind of in-law every sensible father would wish for —
low to zero scandals, minimal social noise, and a mature mindset shared by both him and Temi.

The truth is, to date a billionaire’s daughter and still keep things under the radar takes genuine love and strong self-discipline, not gold-digging intentions.
If his motives weren’t pure, he could have easily blown it all up.

The reverse may be true: namely staying focused on the gold at the end of the tunnel may be exactly what is keeping him in line. Knowing fully well he cant afford to cock it up.
