Politics / Re: Rotimi Amaechi Signs MoU on Rail Modernisation in Sochi, Russia - Photos by dollarsplenty(m): 6:29am On Oct 26, 2019
While some people are busy spreading misinformation on social media about Buhari's trip to RUSSIA. Truths are coming out daily about the benefits of the trip. We have seen Ajaokuta deal concluded, Kaduna tripartite rail contract signed, and this one too. Others will still be unfolding as days pass by. Be sure of what you post even if you hate the government.

This is what an opposition backed online outlet posted about the trip.

Hope For Nigeria
Buhari In Russia: Another Wasted Journey of an Unprepared President. -Chidi Cali

1] Nigeria and Russia WILL work together to improve the efficiency of Nigeria’s oil sector.

2] Russia WILL support the development of Nigeria’s rail infrastructure. They WILL construct the 1,400km track from Lagos to Calabar.

3] Nigeria WILL appreciate Russia assistance in the Steel Industry. Russia contractors WILL return and fix the uncompleted and abandoned Ajaokuta Steel Rolling Mill.

4] Nigeria stressed the need for Russia TO ESTABLISH a nuclear power plant in Nigeria.
NIGERIA WILL, NIGERIA WILL...THESE ARE MERE DIPLOMATIC THAN BUSINESS AGREEMENT AND YIELDS NOTHING.

You cannot go to an International Business event unprepared and expect to achieve anything meaningful.

With over 48 Countries in attendance at the ongoing Russia-Africa Summit in Sochi, Russia, it is apparent that President Buhari will be coming back with no agreement.

Islam for Muslims / Re: Prophetic Cure For Scorpion Sting by dollarsplenty(m): 7:23pm On Oct 18, 2019
TheExecutioner:
And what was His "destiny?" I hope you know that the concept of Destiny does not exist in Christianity?
Jesus Christ's birth, death and resurrection were all a matter of Divine Providence:

John 3:16-18


For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.'





From your quotes

1. “Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels? Note, he stopped asking for God to save him since it was his destiny/fate/ divine providence

2. "Jesus Christ's birth, death and resurrection were all a matter of Divine Providence".

The matter before us now is to look at the differences between destiny and providence.
Providence: A supernatural force that people think control our lives and what happen to us.

Destiny: What happen to us or what will happen to us which we cannot change or avoid.
So if Christianity does not believe in destiny, it means it does not also believe in providence.
Islam for Muslims / Re: Prophetic Cure For Scorpion Sting by dollarsplenty(m): 5:12pm On Oct 18, 2019
TheExecutioner:
I'm aware of those scriptures. Are you aware that after He prayed, His whole attitude changed?

He then was able to stop Peter from using violence to prevent His arrest:

Matthew 26: 51-53

“And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote off his ear

“Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.”

“Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?

An enormous sacrifice is not easily accepted or undertaken and Christ's sacrifice is the greatest one in history.





I am not aware but I believe Jesus knew his time was up and there was no need praying for the " cup to pass over him". The essence of this is that in as much as he didn't want to die in the first instance, he later accepted his fate and faced destiny.
Islam for Muslims / Re: Prophetic Cure For Scorpion Sting by dollarsplenty(m): 3:50pm On Oct 18, 2019
TheExecutioner:
Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane for strength to fulfill his mission. That is why He said as follows:



[img]https://images./3Uj2ivM5naopy4dKgHhvcG.jpg[/img]



Please read these verses
Matthew 26:38-39
[38]
Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.
[39]
And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
Islam for Muslims / Re: Prophetic Cure For Scorpion Sting by dollarsplenty(m): 9:53am On Oct 18, 2019
TheExecutioner:



Because right from the word go, Christ came into the world to die and be resurrected. But didn't the koran say that Christ never died? Why are you suddenly embracing the Christian narrative about the death of Christ?
But if you know that, why did Jesus go to pray in the garden of Gethsemane to escape the death which he had been destined to die? Why did he say on the cross that" why art thou forsaken me"?

Islam for Muslims / Re: Prophetic Cure For Scorpion Sting by dollarsplenty(m): 9:45am On Oct 18, 2019
TheExecutioner:
Interesting. So Allah creates the poor scorpions with the ability to sting but Allah's prophet curses them when they act out that ability.

As usual no common sense solution, just the usual elements of superstition and primitive thinking

No wonder Allah could not save his prophet from the poison which killed him.
Ignoramus of the highest order. Why didn't God save Jesus Christ from being nailed to the cross? Every body has his appointed time and if you believe, you won't be saying this.

Why do goofy Nigerians think they can control someone on how to spend his/her resources

How much have you donated sir? Perhaps nothing, yet you're here giving lame remarks

I wouldn't have commented, but tired of reading people complaning, advising, criticizing others on how to spend their money.


This is an open forum where you are allowed to make your opinion known and that's what I have done. I don't owe you any apology for doing that. Why do I have to tell you what I have contributed?

Keyboard donor, stop telling people how best to help with their own money. Reno has indirectly said he will help the man's business again,
what have you done about it?

Even God who made us all, didn't give everyone the same measure of Grace. Allow Reno help whoever he wants.
Thank you e-responder , did I condemn his action? I only made my opinion known. And how is that your business?
Politics / Re: Reno Omokri Searching For Onitsha Trader Whose Shop Was Burnt In The Market Fire by dollarsplenty(m): 4:40pm On Oct 17, 2019
that's nice of Reno. However, I think helping one man out of hundreds of victims looks somehow. why not make a general donation to the fire victims fund ? Each donor cannot be picking a disaster victim to help, more so, I know government, NGOs and well wishers have started making promises. Let the assistance be general and not based on individual sentiment. What about the woman who got burnt with her child, what hope can we give her? Those that have lives still have hopes. Let's contribute to fund this victim's hope, NP amount is too small.

DTaj:


Stop lying without shame in public! Joana Kolo is NOT a daughter of any APC chieftain.

How is it so easy for idiots like you to just write outright lies like this on a public forum? Did you want to impress nincompoops like you, who do not follow the media?

Joana is a popular student activist, women mobilizer, and environmentalist, from when she was a student at Kwara State University, KWASU, Malete.

Wish her well, enjoin her to represent her generation excellently, and not stupidly (and falsely) claim that she was a daughter of any APC chieftain (which she is NOT)!!!


OK. I've heard you super idiot. Na only her be the student activist from her constituency? Super-nincompoop the first, even if she has no godfather in APC, does that make you to be abusive and rude? OMO rada rada. Why using panadol on another person's headache.

Abi why u dey kolo for Joana Kolo case?
Politics / Re: Joana Nnazua Kolo Completes Her NYSC Programme In Jigawa (Photos) by dollarsplenty(m): 6:11am On Oct 04, 2019
Congrats to her! But this life sha, while some qualified die hard APC members that risked their lives, reputations and political ambition were left out, this daughter of APC chieftain got the appointment without any challenge. The same way the son of Prof. Isaac Adewole (immediate ex Minister of Health) was nominated for commissioner in Osun state. Are they the only not too young to be nominated?

Hope it is not a family CURSE. This was how Lamido's grandfather, Muhammadu Sanusi was removed after a power tussle between him and Sardauna Ahmadu Bello in 1964/5.

Today another power tussle is about to consume Sanusi Lamido Sanusi. Could this be a family curse?
