Inasmuch we were made not to question dead, mock, but mourn with his/her bereaved family. But let it be known that Senator Anie Okonwo was a usual Nigerian senator and now he is dead and will be lowered six feet down the earth like every other individuals, now the big question is what will senator Okonwo be remembered for?

we go question d dead o...especially those corrupt politicians ...no sympathy, cos they didn't show sympathy for d ppo..how sm1 lived their life is how dey will b judged

My brother.
I dated a lady some years back but later got to know she had a horrible past. We broke up but did a lot of hot things in the room.
The lady is really rough.
Likewise a lady I met in Ph. Jenny.
These 2 ladies are the baddest gals have ever met sexually but they all went low and married gentle quiet guys.

Any time I see their pictures on Facebook with their hubby, man I weep for the guys

y u weep for dem?

Let the poor breathe

I'm still yet to understand the idea behind paying a woman for sex___well, I guess it's because the man approached them.

The energy mostly required to fuel the intercourse comes from the man and psychology has proven that women enjoy sex more than men.
A man loses money, energy, while the woman loses absolutely nothing.

exactly d point. Those paying 30k for an ashawo.na u go still dey do harder,u go still feed am join..na nonsense b dat

AllenSpencer:
Trump has been found guilty and asked to pay!


He will be paying another lump sum soon after the second defamation case is through.

Be patient! Trump will sweat out all the money!

of all d millions of charges, nobi tax na him dey pay... All d rest charges na cast😂

Penguin2:
Exactly!

I like this new awakening sweeping across the world in general, and Africa in particular.

What happened in Niger opened my eyes to understand that the West truly don’t give a hoot about Africa and her people. This people don’t care if we all die off as long as their interest is preserved. Our relationship with them has never been symbiotic but on a slave/master grade.

But with BRICS emerging a powerful force, countries that feel exploited or that disagree with the West now have another powerful bloc to find shelter in.

When US, UK and France find out that they losing allies because of their greed and wickedness, they will be forced to rethink their relationship with African countries and stop forcing unpopular criminals on us who they install to serve their purpose.

we dont want their thinking... Let's leave dem..if dat goat like, mk e goto war...

djon78:

AllenSpencer:
If Trump escapes all charges and doesn’t make it to jail, I believe we can all reach a conclusion that the American Judiciary is fvcked!

The evidences are everywhere, and coming from his own cycle and party.

did it work?nooooo😂😂.

Lanruze:
Solid Star recently opened up on his addiction to substances on his verified page and requested that he needs prayers proir to his public ordeal.

Unfortunately, he said he is addicted to "Ice", the street name for Metamerphine. One of the most dangerous substances to be addicted to.

If you want to understand the extent of damage this drug does to stars especially, google the rise and fall of Elvis Presley.

He will be fine , and also advisable he relocates to a new location where he wouldn't be judged after full rehab.

Elvis was an occult person, after e made his convenant with d devil...DAT was d beginning of his addiction...
D devil's gift was never eternal life n enjoyment

Only lost some friends to alcohol ( drunk driving and alcohol related sickness) but the closest to me back then was even warned by his doctor not to indulge but my guy no listen. Things got worse when I left Abuja cos no one cared about him anymore as I was the only one always checking up on him ensuring he was following the doctor's orders. Heard he died of liver issues. I couldn't sleep right for almost a year. He would always be in my dreams. Rip Dan, I hope we see again 😞

Christianity didn’t come from catholic.
When we understand the Bible we will see clearly that Christianity is a religion that had its start from the very early beginning.
This religion is based on the Bible and the Bible made us know that humans had direct relationship with God in the beginning. They had laws guiding them and they were happy. There was the prospect of this happiness continuing forever.
But then human defaulted and the direct relationship with God ended. They started suffering the opposite of things they should enjoy.
God almost immediately developed a plan on how to restore this relationship and the happy state of humans.
Then there came a time that maybe because of the unfavorable worsening conditions, people started calling on the name of God. We can imagine they started praying, treating their neighbors well and sacrificing all sort of things from their properties of livestock and plants just in an attempt to curry Gods favor. “There was also born to Seth a son, and he named him Eʹnosh. At that time people began calling on the name of Yahweh.” Genesis 4:26. This is a stage of religion... a continuation of human attempt at relationship with God.
In the aforementioned period, it was the conscience of people (which hasn’t become as bad as it is now) that was regulating all they were doing. Adam too that related directly with God was alive most of this time to most likely tell stories of the reality and power of God. Enoch too preached around this time.
Then God revealed himself to Abraham after the flood. He went on with the practice of making sacrifices to appease God. He even gave a tithe to a priest-king at Gods instruction. Still in this time, people were generally guided by their conscience.
The Bible based religion took a formal form when God after some thousands of years gave Moses some laws, rituals and codes to guide a set of people. They started practicing what we know today as Judaism (Judaism as a term and religion today though is very different from the religion and code of conduct God revealed to Moses).
This new stage of relationship with God was part of a phase of human relationship with God, it will soon metamorphosis and develop into another phase.
The Religion of Moses continued too for some thousands of years. This religion we have come to know was basically in many aspect a kind of blueprint or raw data to a religion that will be Christianity. Example, aspects like sacrificing of lamps in the religion of Moses was a pointer to the future when Jesus will be sacrificed.
Moses religion was an “ethnoreligion“ as it was a religion that was basically known to be practiced by a particular tribe which is Israelites. To practice this kind of religion one will in some ways nationalize and become Israelite.
Jesus like Moses then came and gave many rules and guidelines to ways we can better relate with God. He based this rules on the prior revealed rules of Moses. He however pointed that many of the practices in the time of Moses were like a sample and pointer to what he was teaching. Hence many of Jesus guidelines though precipitated on Moses laws were a more developed version of it. Example, Jesus now showed that it’s not just a limited set of people that can worship God in a delineated geographically environment but that it’s all people from everywhere in the world that can relate with God by the guidelines Jesus revealed. Hence, Christianity which is a further developed form of Moses religion went beyond ethnicity and became a global religion. It’s not an “ethnoreligion”.
This phase of relationship with God was later termed Christianity after Jesus CHRIST. (Like the former phase was called Moses religion). We are presently in that phase of relationship.
Catholicism too didn’t start like a formal name. It’s was another way some Christians started recognizing themselves. It meant universal religion. And it’s because Christians about a 100years after Jesus were in many places of the world.
Later this catholic as a term became not just another way some Christians were identifying themselves but also a way they started using to differentiate themselves from other Christians. This is because some sad conditions started springing up shortly after Jesus death. Christians started dividing into sects. Some followed more Paul, others thought themselves as Apollo’s followers, while some think Peter was the sole authority. Later there were those that called themselves ‘the church’, some universal (catholic) church and some Arian’s.
Out of these groups, it was catholic that gained political influence and then recognition. Then many emperors converted to catholic version of Christianity. In the year 380 or there about, Emperor Theodosios 1 proclaimed catholic version of Christianity the state religion. All this while even till today, other sects were available in different forms and with varying doctrines.

I hope with my long history and explanation I have given you a better knowledge to understand and even explain to somebody like that your friend in the future.
I must point out to you though, that Catholics from almost when it became a state religion have deviated from the teachings of the Bible just like Judaism we know today do not really conform to the religion of Moses.

bravo bravo..omili crango...Garcia's...😍😍😍😍😍.

remsonik:
I have been to a church in Allen like that and I experienced same. They don't cover their heads or dress decently. They speak in tongues and when one person speaks someone will translate it to the members.

Their service doesn't end on Sunday early but till late at night around 10pm. They just take a 2 hours break after morning service between 3pm-5pm before they start the evening service. Even you will see cross dressers in the church

wait,for dis Nigeria?
