I'm not a Christian and have my qualms with organized religion but I have to say this is a commendable initiative. I see a Church serving its community at the point of their need. Kudos RCCG! Hopefully more churches, mosques, temples and shrines are inspired to join in significant and practical community work.

You people keep saying that the Nigerian military should step in to save the country. But honestly, we suffer from a serious case of national amnesia in this country—wallahi! If the military is so competent, why didn’t they save Nigeria during the 29 years they were in power? Let’s not forget the impunity, human rights violations, sectional coups and counter coups, corruption, mismanagement and embezzlement that characterized many of those years.

We've been there before, we've done that, severally, how come we never learn? I won't judge you for being too young to remember IBB, with his charm and sweet mouth. He played the military Messiah card well, sold Nigerians false hopes and dribbled the entire country like Maradona, earning him the notorious title of Evil Genius. Our core economic problems were
exacerbated in that era with his structural adjustment policy (SAP). We've never really recovered since then.

The truth is, the Nigerian elites—whether military, political, traditional, religious or otherwise—are all cut from the same cloth. It doesn’t matter what uniform they wear, the titles they hold, or the roles they play in daily life; their actions often reflect the same self-serving interests. They're the scammers, the masses are their mugu. Until we address systemic issues and demand accountability across all sectors, expecting salvation from any one group is just wishful thinking.

We also suffer from a chronic case of "the grass is greener on the other side." Just because a young military officer seizes political power doesn’t mean he has done or will do better than the civilian leaders we criticize. Have we paused to ask the everyday people of Burkina Faso how they truly feel after all the euphoria of "change" has settled?

Did they tell us that the jihadists—the threat that supposedly justified his coup—have been defeated in the two years he’s been in power? Have they said they are happier, safer, or more prosperous now? Or are they grappling with the same, if not worse, challenges?

But no, as Nigerians, we’ll just see a charismatic young man in military fatigues and instantly assume he’s the Messiah. This is dangerous romanticism.

Leadership, whether military or civilian, requires more than rhetoric or appearances. Without competence, accountability, and a genuine commitment to the people, power—regardless of who holds it—will only serve the same elite interests.

All things black and wonderful, the Lord made them too.

We thank God for your life my sister. We pray blessings and prosperity over you, your family and your endeavors. Your sojourn in a foreign land will yield the bounty that you've sacrificed a lot for. We celebrate with you. Ise.

That said, emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds. There's nothing special about oyinbo or snow.

These people are not Nigerians. Are those Nigerian names? These seem to be people from the Caribbeans and a forced effort by OP to link us with something horrible. You have failed, gack to sender on this one! These are not Nigerians and, on behalf of all Nigerians everywhere, I demand an unequivocal apology from OP for this malicious mischaracterization.

Wuna don carry this your tribalism as political tool reach there?

Looking forward to when we'll start locking up Nigerian politicians for using religion and tribe as political tools. Oh wait. They're not breaking any law, just playing the game how it has always been played.

Probably her son from the look of it, and she's trying to teach him radical generosity because how else did she know his dad bought him a shoe from the UK last two weeks? And you can also see some resemblance in their faces.

How many people can comfortably pay rents in the city center running into millions yearly ?

Get in touch with reality.

You don't even have to be at the center to pay rent in millions.

As someone who has lived in Abuja for the past six years and absolutely loves the city, this video feels like a paid propaganda piece.

Addressing the video, the man literally drove down two or three streets in his footage and showed a couple of government offices, a hotel and a club. It’s reminiscent of when you visit a new city and try to get from point A to B and an okada or taxi takes you the long way around to charge more, only to later find out it’s a walking distance apart.

I understand how one can become so accustomed to their surroundings that they stop noticing the finer details and the grand beauty of a place. I also recognize that hype, by its nature, tends to exaggerate. However, certain points need to be clarified:

1. Abuja isn’t 10–20 years old. Abuja became Nigeria's capital on December 12, 1991, but its development began in the 1970s after its designation in 1976. This makes it 33 years old as the capital and about 48 years old since development began.

2. The National Mosque isn’t the most popular landmark in Abuja. More people know "Berger" than central mosque, because it is more central than the mosque actually is.

3. Not every part of Abuja is developed—there are still underdeveloped areas and trenches within and around the city. And more people who live and work in Abuja live in these places than the relatively few bougies in Maitama and Asokoro.

4. Abuja people beat traffic EVERYDAY, it all depends on which ones. There are traffic lights you'll feel like you have 3 heads on your neck if you obey because no one else does.


All said, Abuja is indeed a beautiful city; clean and serene, and a joy to live in (if you can afford to without stress).

America ain't different from Nigeria politics. There's nepotism there also but the country works because of much lessser corruption and love for one another unlike our evil leaders here

Love for one another for where? Identity politics is just as hot if not hotter. I dare say hotter.

For you OT say he is making you loose focus means you no sabi drive. Maybe the man dey tell you tru

I agree with you. Because if he truly has eyes and can see and drive why does he keep entering potholes?

Here's a theory, OP has an inaccurate self-concept as a badass driver and his dad noting what a reckless driver he is is triggering for him because it challenges the self image he has about being a good driver. He forgot daddy has been driving for many years before dey born am. Hin papa na veteran driver, never one serious accident in the entire history of his driving na why the thing dey pain OP. If you check am well scratch scratch go full that hin car, na the kind people wey dey speak English for traffic. Oga! Better calm da hell down and go apologize to your papa, you think you're now grown enough to disrespect the man that gave you life, abi? SMDH.

If you like continue @OP. What goes around, comes around. Na serious beating you go chop from your pikin on top driving.

I love and respect my dad so much
He is old in age but he can still drive

The issue is anytime I'm driving him
Instead of him to relax
He will turn to Conductor every 2 seconds, sometimes he will shout that I'm speeding to fast but I'm not going past 60 kmph


Today I drove him to village and on the way he did the same shouting and telling me to look out for bumps.

This distracts me and makes me lose focus. Out of anger i shouted back at him to keep quiet and allow me drive.
That i have eyes and i can see the bumps

Now i told him that he should never enter my car or unless he will keep quiet and allow me concentrate on my driving.
No talking, he should keep it shut through out the whole journey.

Now he is feeling bad, did i do anything bad??

This is so sad. One day he won't be around, and that day you won't need to ask the Internet if what you did was wrong, you'll know.

"If any of you has a dispute with another, do you dare to take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the Lord’s people? 2 Or do you not know that the Lord’s people will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life! 4 Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, do you ask for a ruling from those whose way of life is scorned in the church? 5 I say this to shame you. Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers? 6 But instead, one brother takes another to court—and this in front of unbelievers!

7 The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated? 8 Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers and sisters."

1 Corinthians 6:1-8

Gistmedia10:
A thought-provoking question posed by a lady has taken the internet by storm. In her post, she asked, "Why are most of the uneducated ladies so lucky in finding good husbands?"

This query has sparked a heated debate, with netizens sharing varying opinions on what might be a complex societal phenomenon.

Some believe uneducated women are seen as more traditional or submissive, traits some men prefer, while others credit qualities like kindness or family values over luck.

Critics, however, reject the idea, arguing education doesn’t determine marital success, as educated women also find supportive partners.

The debate has sparked thousands of comments on personal experiences and societal expectations. What’s your take—luck, perception, or something else?

Where's the data or should we just believe you? What do you mean by "uneducated" and who's a good husband? When you say "most" what percentage of the population are you talking about? How many people in this demography have you met?

I can't speak for all 30+ men but as someone who falls in that demography I can tell you that I find that rather odd. Thirty plus men are more likely to be busy hustling and building a life they can be proud of, and don't have time for frivolities like calling multiple girls just to hear their voice. That doesn't mean younger men are less engaged but it's a matter of greater urgency when you're 30+.

My experience as a 30+ man is that more girls are willing to call and check on me than I am willing to pick up, because when you're 30+ and have an apparently stable life you turn into a potential wedding ring in their eyes, and at the end of the day you're already wise enough at that big age to know that female attention in all the forms it takes is often a minus on your resources.
