The truth is, Nigerians by their reliance on imported stuff, and by their refusal to allow government to deregulate fuel, power, etc, make it difficult for investors to pump in more money to develop the economy to the level that it could produce jobs.

We refuse to pay power bills...which means that our DISCOS and GENCOS have zero cash to improve things...and thus job losses.

Also, we refuse to be innovative. We won't take the risk and go industrial...we would rather sell imported stuff.

And usually...when we say govt should provide jobs...it is white collar jobs we mean. Well, countries don't get developed by producing more clerks.

which power bill are you talking about? are we the reason why the prepaid metal has not circulated? Are we the reason why the inflation rate is high or the exchange rate too? not forgetting the lending rate. tell me how can an investor come into the country with such high rates?

pokipoki:
Dude, don't provide excuse for them by blaming the government. There are other ventures such as farming and food processing which can give them legitimate wealth. Rather, they choose to exploit the "weak" so as to make fast forex to buy cars that people will envy them.
It's a pity that the crime does not warrant death sentence!!!

did the youths tell you that they have land to start farming or finances to start business? how many youth have the opportunity to get loan to do business? tell us how we can start a business..

Bossontop:
In my church it is shared for d children after service

what? even those who are in a state of sin? that is Christ for Christ sake. so the children know what they are taking? I won't be surprise is your pastors share it to everyone in the church

The Northern part of Nigeria is a big problem to our collective sanity and unity of purpose as a people and a country.
How can you cheer the same person that is causing your misery if you are not hypnotized with glue sniffing?

the same thing would have happened if he is in south or east. we are just "there" as a nation

After 9years and all the water that must have gone under the bridge?
He still came back for her...
Is her kpekus made of gold?

I suspect the groom was charmed or he is just plain foolish.

In those 9 years he was making money, all the men in the neighborhood would have used his wife to play coupon.

Hmmm, the carnal mind will see a seat. The spiritual mind will feel the essence of God deposited like a fart upon that seat.
You just have to believe. And it will work.

yet they will say Catholic is worshipping idol

PointZerom:
During the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ, He used the highest means of transportation (Horse). It is not a sin if a pastor uses private Jet which is also the highest means of transportation as at today.

Read ur bible he used donkey which was for low class people at that time. Mathew 21:1-11

Vivere:
And you are the type the Bible warned us about in 2 Timothy 2:23-24.

take proverb 9:8

FrankGiel:
Average of 10000 per parish?? Take it easy with the lie.. Eko expo hall is designed to accommodate 5 000 people. Which Catholic church is bigger than the expo hall??
Cardinal talking sense even though there was no point calling out another ministry..
Redeem members in Lagos and most parts of Nigeria (can't speak for the East) far outnumber any other denomination including the catholics.. Its a fact..

calculate the no of mass/ service and average Catholic do on Sunday.

Vivere:
Calm down. It is possible for RCCG to have as many branches as the Catholic Church. Don't forget that for many years, the Catholic church did not embrace church planting as fas as the pentecostal churches did. In my area for example, there is just one Catholic church serving a population of over 20,000 people in one estate. But in comparison over 7 RCCG churches also exist within the same estate. Now, who do you think would have the greater number of worshippers?

my friend rccg can't be like Catholic in every aspect.
The catholic has an average population in each parish of 10000. If rccg in your area is 7, can their population be up to 10000 combine?

Vivere:
Last time I attended a Catholic church, I slept off. I cannot even remember the title of the sermon, or the name of the vicar. But the day I attended RCCG I not only danced all through, I still remember the topic of the sermon and its entire contents, as well as the 7 warfare prayer points, we prayed on that day. Meanwhile, I attended the RCCG service, two months before the one in the Catholic church....

you are the type Jesus said in Mathew 15:8. Mathew 13:15

Bigii:

DANDeGENERAL:
people’s

All it takes is a single tweet or text for some people to reveal their poor grasp of the English language.Homophones — words that sound alike but are spelled differently — can be particularly pesky.Regardless, you should never choose incorrectly in these nine situations:

1. ‘YOUR’ VS. ‘YOU’RE’“Your” is a possessive pronoun, while “you’re” is a contraction of “you are.”Example 1: You’re pretty.Example 2: Give me some of your whiskey.

2. ‘IT’S’ VS. ‘ITS’Normally, an apostrophe symbolizes possession, as in, “I took the dog’s bone.” But because apostrophes also replace omitted letters — as in “don’t” — the “it’s” vs. “its” decision gets complicated.Use “its” as the possessive pronoun and “it’s” for the shortened version of “it is.”Example 1: The dog chewed on its bone.Example 2: It’s raining

3. ‘THEN’ VS. ‘THAN’“Then” conveys time, while “than” is used for comparison.Example 1: We left the party and then went home.Example 2: We would rather go home than stay at the party.

4. ‘THERE’ VS. ‘THEY’RE’ VS. ‘THEIR’“There” is a location. “Their” is a possessive pronoun. And “they’re” is a contraction of “they are.”Use them wisely.

5. ‘WE’RE’ VS. ‘WERE’“We’re” is a contraction of “we are” and “were” is the past tense of “are.”

6. ‘AFFECT’ VS. ‘EFFECT’“Affect” is a verb and “effect” is a noun.There are, however, rare exceptions. For example, someone can “effect change” and “affect” can be a psychological symptom.Example: How did that affect you?Example: What effect did that have on you?

7. ‘TWO’ VS. ‘TOO’ VS. ‘TO’“Two” is a number.“To” is a preposition. It’s used to express motion, although often not literally, toward a person, place, or thing.And “too” is a synonym for “also.”

8. ‘INTO’ VS. ‘IN TO’“Into” is a preposition that indicates movement or transformation, while “in to,” as two separate words, does not.Example: We drove the car into the lake.Example: I turned my test in to the teacher.In the latter example, if you wrote “into,” you’re implying you literally changed your test into your teacher.

9. ‘ALOT’“Alot” isn’t a word. This phrase is always two separate words: a lot.

10. ‘WHO’ VS. ‘WHOM’Use “who” to refer to the subject of a sentence and “whom” to refer to the object of the verb or preposition. Shortcut: Remember that who does it to whom.Example: Who ate my sandwich?Example: Whom should I ask?

11. ‘WHOSE’ VS. ‘WHO’S’Use “whose” to assign ownership to someone and “who’s” as the contraction of “who is.”Example: Whose backpack is on that table?Example: Who’s going to the movies tonight?
12. ‘I’ VS. ‘ME’Use “I” when you are the subject of a sentence and “me” when you are the object.Example: John and I went to the store to buy some food.Example: The cashier handed the groceries to John and me.

13. ‘PEAK’ VS. ‘PIQUE’Use “peak” when describing the highest point or maximum value and “pique” when you are talking about stimulating curiosity.Example: I hiked to the peak of the mountain.Example: The fascinating prior experience her résumé piqued my interest.

Correct your English op
No3 , how can you say "and then" at the same time. It should be "then" leave "and" out if it.

experience marriage first before you know what it means to get a sent off kiss from the love ones

Drinkwater07:
In a dilemma right now, please those experienced in these kind of issues should help me.

I lost my Job at the Nigerian Breweries Last year, While I was working I made up my mind to marry my girlfriend of about 4 years now, this December. Both of us are 30 already, we are so much in love, but my job lost really hampered our marriage plans, because she is just engaged in the Npower scheme now and my cash that I saved have long almost finished right now. The reason I did not go into business with the little money I have at that time about 400k was that My elder brother in Canada promised to send me to Canada to join there. So far he have helped me secure admission for MSc. and payed my full tuition fee and even credited my account for the maintenance which the visa officers will see in my account. He also has the plans of sponsoring me through PHD also in Canada or the UK if I want. Now as I await my Visa, there is a really big issue I am fighting right now to manage.

My brother warned me to forget about any girl I have here in Nigeria, that most of them are fair weather friends, gold diggers and desperados, and that if I have anybody here in Nigeria waiting for me while I am away, that it will be a huge distraction for me. He told me he is speaking out of experience and won't want anybody to distract me while studying and hustling abroad. My girl is definitely none of what he described, she is a very good person and is never after money, She just love so much. I told him that I don't have anybody, This is to avoid him withdrawing his financial support for me or may be doubting my seriousness to succeed.

I was planning to come back and get married to my baby after my MSc, but I don't know how my brother will see it. He will be so disappointed with me, I hold my brother in so much high regard, and right from when I was a child he usually protects me so well and doesn't want anything to hamper my success, I love my girl so much, she is everything you will want in any woman. If I don't marry her I don't think I will be happy with anyone else. None of them is aware of what is bothering. How will I solve this issue.

the same happened to me in 2009 when my Anty wanted me to come to UK to finish my ACCA then marry her friend's daughter whom my mum had met when she went to UK. Do you that because of love I tampered with the document my sister's friend sent to me to use to process the visa so that I don't get the visa ? Later they found out what I did and that was how my sister cut all tiles with me above all my passport was sized by the UK embassy to make matter worse the same girl I was dieing for ended the relationship with me just after 4months I did that mistake.
My bro leave love out of women if you want to make it in life. Those Early successful people didn't put women on their heads instead they pit women on their shoulders so that when the women are heavy for them to move they can easily put her down unlike when she is on the head when you will need assistance to put her down

How many of them are still together?

When you marry late from my exoirence, you will be too wise to tolerate your partner, too expose to understand that we are human but not God. In marriage, the couple have to act as a fool to tolerate and understand. An over grown person who married late may feel his younger partner is is trying to act wiser than him which may cause conflict. The same to the old lady too. To give birth may seems difficult because of her age which may put pressure on the early marriage.
