If someone had the opportunity of being the president's son, you are already made by doing nothing. The richest man in India that got wedded two years ago and all the great musicians and world celebrities that were invited in his wedding, what did he do specially?

Just because he had a luck of being a rich man son.

Elumelu simply told you that luck helped him, you thought he was joking. Are you aware that some people worked hard than him but could not be where he is.

I don't know about you, I pray for God's Favor in all I do because the races are not for the swift. Time and chance happen to them all.
I thought you were going to cite one example of someone from Tony elumelu's background. He came from a humble background bybthe way and you are giving instances of a president son.

Elumelu said luck but if he was not prepared to seize the moment, he would have just being statistics in our population data.

TenQ:
Grace is what was given to you without your effort.

DJ Cuppy is a billionaire because she found herself to be the daughter of Mr Femi Otedola.

Luck is still grace given to you when you assume it has nothing tp do with God's gift.
Oga, there is effort in grace . It's just not what you laboured for (wage). You have a role to play in grace. If not not so, Paul would not say "if you believe(effort). If you do not receive (effort) grace, you won't get it. Grace has been planned by God.

Luck on the other hand is not planned for by you. Just like getting on a plane and finding out the next passenger is otedola and you've been making efforts to see him without success. It was a "chanced" meeting you had no role in how it happened. You can decide to seize the moment or ignore it.

Like I said earlier, God controls chance/luck as the bible shows.

dgr8truth:
This is exactly why high-profile investigations in this country lead to dead ends. Why rush to the media when your own statement admits you haven't identified the source, the owners, or the final recipients?

By parading these four suspects and announcing the seizure, the police have effectively tipped off the masterminds. Every major player connected to this shipment is destroying evidence and going underground right now. You have to ask yourself: is this just a classic case of prioritizing media PR over actual police work, or is it a calculated move to compromise the investigation before the trail leads to influential figures?
It was as though you read my mind. Shoddy job first class. Why nit keep everything under lid until full investigation is concluded and masterm8nds arrested.

TenQ:
Did tou see UNPREDICTABLE EVENT in your preferred definition and then luck? And my objective is not to deny the use of word LUCK

The context meaning is that you do not have any control of what happens.

What you call Luck is what we call Grace BECAUSE it is SOMETHING given by God without any input from you
Grace has design and was planned by God as against luck which happens unpredictably. The are 2 entirely different terms. If you say"God controls luck", I wouldn't argue but saying they are same is just n̈onsense

It is not luck but grace.

Eccl 9:11:
"I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happens to them all."



Grace is having the right qualities and being in the right places and crossing path with your helpers at the best possible time in your life.
I understand the concept of grace but chance in that passage you quoted is another word for luck.

The point is, he was not the only well prepared person, there were a lot of people who were prepared for that type of opportunity just like him or even better, he met the opportunity others did not, others had the opportunity but lost it to misfortune for him luck was on his side
Being prepared is one thing. Being prepared and meeting an opportunity is anothing affair altogether. When people meet opportunities and lose it, it's either they were not prepared or never recognised it as opportunity.

And you have not seen someone that did nothing, but opportunity worked for him? Respect and learn life.
Look at elumelu's background and cite one example of some9ne who did nothing and hit it big. Just one.

Reminded of this quote" when preparation meets opportunity, people call it luck",if Tony was not prepared when he had that opportunity, he wouldn't be where he is.

I agree with you on that my good Sir. And it's a shame, that we know the problem. I guess we're too selfish to be united under a shared vision.

That's why these politicians always seek out the leaders in anything that looks like a united front, then try to buy or bully them into disarray.

Even the people that would benefit from a better Nigeria will rather want to be an elevated thuurg than fight for common good.
The problem is that politicians knowing we are a multicultural and multi religious nation has perfected the art of weaponising religion and ethnicity against us.

If a politician is caught stealing from us, he would turn it to a tribal or religious thing and you would find out he has teeming supporters. From OUK, emefile, malami, el rufai, it's the same approach. Even bilord, who is not a politician, played that card and had supporters of that view.

Stephen0mozzy:
I was having a conversation with someone yesterday. And the conclusion is that...

The average Nigerian is a coward - including me. We keep Waiting for one or two people out of a suffering population of more than 200million people to be the one that will risk their freedom to demand for good government.

..the rest of us hide behind keyboards and hide inside crowds to speak.

That's why these one man mopol activism never amounts to anything - we are not fed up enough.
Not that we are cowards. We are not united. Endsars just showed us that. If we are united, it'd be so easy to kick out erring or underperforming politicians but they will easily use our disunity against us.

There is.
We took out Osama, but that did not mean that we uprooted AlQaeda. It took some time.
We have taken out ayatollah, but that does not mean the IRGC is gone. It will take some time. But it will surely go.

What will hasten the process is only if the US loosens Israel's hands; then the process will be 50X faster.
grin grin grin
Did I read loosen israel's hand? Guess you didn't get the memo, Bibi confessed that for 30+ years, they've been trying to get US for this kind of operation until now. This corroborates what hillary Clinton said earlier. Don't stand logic on it's head when you argue. Did US hold their hands when they attacked Lebanon? There's an igbo saying: someone i can beat up, I don't need to pray to God for help. If Israel can go solo against Iran, they would have d9ne so since 20 years ago.

I am telling you that if the US had taken off the no-kill list, the same list that spared the life of the supreme leader in the 12-day war, there would be no IRGC today.

Too much for an "Iran superpower."
grin grin grin
Now that the supreme leader was taken out, so there's no more IRGC? Wow!!! You, my friend, are very smart.

Ukraine has exposed to us that Russia is only big in African media,
Iran has exposed to us that USA is nothing without nuclear weapons
US was never at war with Iran like the Russian-Ukraine war. Let congress approve a war and you will see wonders. This was Trump misadventure that the Iranians resisted well.

Iran fired missiles into Israel as their normal posturing for you guys in Nigeria to clap. Israel blew up more than 200 targets just for the dummy missiles fired into Israel from Iran.

What independence do you mean?

You mean independent as in the US allowing Israel do what they want to do? Can Iran survive it? Without a no-kill list, will there be an IRGC?
grin grin grin
All skirmish israel has done was done jointly with US and that's why there was a no kill list. Their attack on Lebanon is all Israeli, let them do same against Iran abi e too hard for the strong nation?

Israel has gone solo before and it had a better outcome.
Israel is capable of matching Iranian escalation. Blocking the strait of hormuz doesn't concern Israel that much so Iran doesn't have much leverage.
When did the bolded happen. Don't derail with strait of hormuz as its not part of the discussion.

Before the war, the mouth made on Iran was too much that it was regarded as par with Russia and China. Even America took them as a formidable enemy. Little did people know that they were a group of ragtag terrorists that only depended on the tactic of "wearing out" their enemies.


This war has exposed them badly. Their only saving grace is that the region they find themselves in depends heavily on assets they can sacrifice anything for. Assets such as energy installations, refineries, rigs, and transport routes.

Even America knows very well that if they let Israel's hands loose now, Iran will be Gaza.
Then let Israel attack Iran independently let's see who will come out on top. Question for you: why have they always lobbied US for a joint attack if they could go solo?

You dont get it.

The deal is now a normal gift to the normal Iranians, the IRGC hardliners are gone. America did not go there to destroy the country and walk away.

Did you read part of the deal where part of the money has to be used to buy food, grains etc from American farmers to Iran?

The hardline IRGC is gone, regime has been changed.
Which regime changed I ask? Did a neutral person take over likenthe wanted? Even Trump stylishly ackn9wledged no regime change by claiming the current supreme leader is differentnfrom the father.

Iran got better deal from Trump than from Obama and that is a fact staring at you in your face.

The Israelis have fought ALL the muslim countries combined at once, in more than five wars, and flawlessly prevailed.
Not once, not twice, not thrice, but many times.

Who is Iran?

Israel courts the participation of the USA simply because of some specific equipment, like the bunker buster. After that, it is usually the USA that ties Israeli hands from finishing off Iran. E.g., After the 12-day war, the US had to beg Israel not to take out the Ayatollah. After the US used its bunker buster again in this war, the US had to give Israel a no-kill list. And that is how these "negotiators" survived. Just because Israel spared them,
There was a time Romans were beating nations no matter the coalition but where are they today. Times change and Iran has greatly developed militarily my friend. Isreal can't deal with Iran todaynsay way they are dealing with Lebanon. Iran will bloody their nose .

First it was the Epstein Island where their Presidents, Billionaires and other Elites go to RAYPE and EAT children like chicken.

Then it was Peter Thiel's SECRET coy—Dialog.
Where their Billionaires and Politicians across the aisle GATHER to discuss topics like "Navigating World War 3" and "How to Build a Cult".

Now, it's this.
She served as US Director of National Intelligence in charge of CIA and NSA.
She also served as a member of the US Congress.

Evidence now suggests she's been part of a CULT for more than THREE DECADES.

Washington Post says she was so DEEP into the CULT that she repeated VERBATIM on TV exactly what the Cult Leader directed her to say.
So you believed everything someone said about tulsi without independent verifications? SMHS.
