[quote author= post=130234436]https://www.facebook.com/share/p/AiepXZwnxe4Qc2dh/?mibextid=oFDknk[/quote]My obedient people are also "ebi n pawa ooo" I thought they said only Yorubas complain of hunger in Nigeria.

I have just observed that Christiana are not allowed to make any commitment on the Muslim posts on Nairaland.
This afternoon as I read a report about the person who passed on in Makkah, some questions came to my mind.As I tried to comment on the post ,I was asked if I was a Muslim I answered that I am a Christian.. To my surprise I was denied access to the post on the report and other Islamic posts.
Should it be so? Have we divided Nairalanders into two? Why this diachomy on Nairaland? Moslems from my findings comment on Christianity posts on Nairaland.
Has anybody experienced this?

Which one is realizable? Neither of them!

The Hausas who sell dollars in Nigeria are operating easily. Where do they get dollars? Does our constitution allow dollar market?
Would Buhari open his eyes and allow a Hausa man be jailed for dealing with dollars?
Before you accuse Tinubu of favoritism, think well oo!

What is Your Rating of Tinubu's Administration in One Year?

. Good policies with bad implementation without any human face. Buhari said he reformed Nigeria for 8 years. BAT came him and said we should bear up with pains in the land. When will Nigerians smile?
Regrettably he will again if another election comes up in future

—FG gets 52.68%
—States get 26.72%
—LG get 20.60%

I personally don’t believe FG should get that much percentage because it just does not make any sense. FG should also give some part of their percentage to the states/LG.

Finally, if the Supreme Court can give judgment that support full LG autonomy, that 20% will go a long way in making dividends reach the grassroot more.

My fear is LG chairmen are wasteful people

OnknownSoldier:
I am naturally drawn to things that people generally criticize and most of the time, I do find out that most of these things are not really what people say they are. People would generally hate what they don’t understand and that is the case of the Jehovah’s Witnesses. While growing up, I watched people avoid interacting with them and this made me curious to know about their doctrines.

After studying with the Jehovah’s Witnesses for more than 12 years, I can say that they are widely misunderstood by most people. Do I totally agree with them? No, I do not but I share their perspective in some areas like the subject of the Trinity and Tithing. I do not actively study with the Jehovah’s Witnesses anymore but here are areas they have my respect.

First, is evangelism. Without a doubt, no other Christian set actively evangelizes like the Jehovah’s Witnesses, none even come close. As a Jehovah’s Witness, you are readily mandated to evangelize not just occasionally like most Christian sets but regularly.

Second is their civility. As far as I am concerned, I think the Jehovah’s Witnesses are the most civilized Christian set in Nigeria. Even though they use microphones in their services, you can barely hear a sound outside their kingdom hall. I think most churches need to learn from them on how not to disturb people with their horn speakers. It can be very annoying.

Third is their uniformity. I have gone to kingdom halls and many Jehovah’s Witnesses’ conferences in many regions of the country and I can confirm that they teach the same message everywhere. Most multi-branched churches in Nigeria are not like this. Don't let me start to mention names.

Fourth is biblical knowledge. When it comes to biblical knowledge, I haven't seen that Christian set that can win the Jehovah’s Witnesses in a Bible-based debate even though a lot of people will argue that their teachings are heresies. The truth of the matter is that no church is perfect and Jehovah’s Witnesses are not an exemption. Try an engage a random 8-year-old Jehovah’s Witness, you will be shocked by his or her narration of biblical events.

Recently, I was watching a video of two pastors arguing about tithing on Facebook and I was so irritated by the pastor arguing for why Christians should pay tithe. The Bible verses he was using as his defense were totally irrelevant to the points he was making. Jehovah's Witnesses are not like that. If you ask a Jehovah’s Witness a question he doesn't know, he will not try to be proof smart to you or beat around the bush, he will simply tell you that he does have the answer to your question but he will reach out to his superior for the answer. Trust me, he will always come back with a reasonable response even if it doesn't really answer the question exactly but at least it will sound very reasonable.

Fifth is their lower divorce rate. Of course, there will certainly be Jehovah’s Witnesses who are divorced but I am yet to see one myself. Do you know one? The Bible says, “By their fruits, we shall know them. This is a clear testament to show that the word of God is of great effect in their lives. Yeah!

Sixth is their devotion. When it comes to devotion, I rate the Jehovah’s Witnesses very high. A Jehovah’s Witness with an MSc can decide to turn into an artisan simply because he doesn't want anything that will hinder him from going to weekly meetings at the Kingdom Hall. One of their members once told me that he has never missed a meeting in his entire life and if I wasn't mistaken, he should be around 32 years of age when he told me that. Jehovah’s Witnesses don't joke with their meetings and that's why you will rarely see a Jehovah’s Witness working in the bank.

Lastly is their less emphasis on money. This is one area I respect the Jehovah’s Witnesses most. A Jehovah’s Witness will politely stop you by the road, hand you a book that would have cost you a lot of money, and ask that you give a free-will offering. Even if N5 is all you have, he will collect. This is not the way it is in other Christian sets where everything is for sale. The only Christian set that is a bit like the Jehovah’s Witnesses in this regard is the Christ Embassy with their “Rhapsody of Reality”. It will shock you that the Jehovah’s Witnesses do not take offerings or tithe in their meeting except a box at the entrance of the hall where members can drop their voluntary offerings. Sometimes I imagine how they can run their publications and the maintenance of their halls. I don't think there is any better way to explain the true provision of God than that.

In conclusion, I know a lot of Christians see the Jehovah’s Witnesses as a heretic movement or even a demonic one but I don't think so. Instead, I see sincere people who are devoted to God in the way they know best. Whether their doctrine is accurate or not, I just hope God counts the sincerity of their heart and devotion as righteousness.

Sanusi Lamido coming back marks the beginning of 2027 politics

Sanusi will likely criticize the wrong things happening in Nigeria.

Where do the Labour union expect the government to get the funds? To borrow or to increase more tax base which Nigerians are fuming at both?

What should happen to private sector workers, how would they be able to cope in the same economy where the government workers would be earning X300% of their basic salary?

What would happen to Nigeria economy with government paying N500k as salary? Inflation of course.

Labour union are only after salary increase but not after fishing out the ghost workers and those with shady certificates who consume chunk of the salaries paid by government

. Where does the Government want workers to get money to cope with high cost of inflation?
The minimum wage must be commensurate with the present economic realities

I think the people have moved on. There is no house without Solar. Unless if the electricity is cheap, my people won't pay Band-A tariff. I trust them

This will be possible when the North is at peace with the SE. The SE will parley with the SW and the SW will lead in appealing to the North.Tbe North till today does not believe in the SE because of the last civil war. The North believes in the SW so much that it can conceed anything to the region. That is why I keep saying Obi is just wasting his time by roaming about the North.

NairaOcean:
A pastor has found himself at the center of controversy after refusing to return N900,000 that was mistakenly deposited into his account by a church member.

The church member intended to transfer N100,000 as part of a donation but accidentally sent N1,000,000 instead. Realizing the error immediately, the member contacted the pastor, expecting the excess amount to be promptly returned. However, the pastor's response left him in shock.


According to the member, the pastor insisted that the N900,000 excess was a divine provision and should be considered as belonging to God.

Abuja based legal practitioner, Pelumi Olajengbesi, has faulted the arrest and detention of Lagos based singer, Habeeb Okikiola aka Portable by operatives of the Nigeria Police over debt related matters.

The lawyer insisted that police missed the track and went out of its statutory functions as the law does not confer power to arrest over debt on the agency.

Portable was widely reported to have been arrested by the police in Lagos over his inability to pay for a G-Wagon vehicle he purchased from a motor stand.

Reacting to the development in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja, the lawyer said that although Portable may be troublesome, his arrest and the method of debt recovery employed by the Nigerian Police Force was in blatant disregard to the country’s laws.

the lawyer stated.

Olajengbesi therefore pleaded with the Nigerian Police Force not to reduce its esteem but to always act within the ambit of the law that established it..
