Christianity Etc › Re: Should A Born Again Christian Restitute Or Just Move Forward In Faith? by erniok(m): 1:28pm On Apr 13, 2025
Ezini:
Don’t be confused,
Not everything can be restituted, restitution was zacheous own way of responding to salvation, yet he wasn’t the only one encountered by Jesus. The woman of samaria didn’t go back to her first husband , the other apostles of Jesus may have done one evil or the other but Bible had no record of them going back to confess or restitute,
It is very important that you dwell in the Holy Ghost so he will teach and direct at all times
I know why I asked madam. We are new creatures, without past so what are we restitution that should lead to missing heaven.
In ephesians, paul said "let him that steal stop but rather labour that he may give to those that have not."

Restitution is not for the new creation.

If you have stolen money or things in your office, stole from friend or neighbour, forged certificate, had children from paternity fraud, committed adultery, lied against someone, falsely accuse someone, duped people, did internet fraud, slept with someone's wife, slept with someone's husband, slept with your EX few days/weeks etc. to your wedding, killed a neighbour and covered it up, slandered someone, used a close person for rituals, poisoned someone, tied someone's destiny with juju e.t.c, when you genuinely repent from sin, do you still need to go clear your conscience by apologising to those people or their loved ones, or are you to move forward?

When you repent genuinely, God forgives you totally and you begin to enjoy His presence. But as you begin to move on, the HolySpirit will begin to tell you of some things you need to go and make peace about, stolen things to return e.t c. It could be people you hurt so bad that you need to apologize to. At this moment if you snub such leading of the HolySpirit, you become disobedient and it is sin. The HolySpirit is willing to assist you if you pray to Him for grace to make peace with those you have offended.

When the HolySpirit reminds you of something to confess, restitute e.t.c, if you refuse to do it, you will not enter heaven. And yes, the HolySpirit helps a lot if you pray for His assistance in make peace with anyone. He is a Helper in many things.

Pray this morning: Lord Jesus Christ, please forgive me all my sins, come into my life and be my Lord and personal Saviour in Jesus name. Amen.
Attend a good church also.

Happy Sunday to you.

You're advocating for the sole proliferation of the English language at the apex level of political affairs in an African nation, but here you are struggling with your conditional statements in English. 😂😂😂

Perhaps you're just livid because I didn't include your mother tongue? That your moniker sounds like a Calabar name 🤣🤣🤣
If you are smart, you'd have gone through my posts if you want to play the ethnic card before using my moniker in your failed attempt to sound smart.

It's still the national assembly and not yoruba-igbo-hausa assembly. Deal with it.

Not just Yoruba, but the 3 major languages... leadership is not by English, so I support it.

But this man's case is unique cos he was said to have an OND from Nigeria and a BSc. in Business Admin from an American University and he also supposedly worked in the US Navy... so how come he can't even express himself clearly? undecided
It's called the national assembly not yoruba-igbo-hausa assembly. English language is Nigeria official language.

Romance › Re: “If You No Buy Kiss, You Go Buy Kisskid” — The Price Of Reckless Pleasure by erniok(m): 9:02am On Apr 11, 2025
Dpsychologist:
In the age of instant gratification and sexual freedom, one line cuts through the noise like a blade of truth:

"Better dey use condom make she no go carry belle born for you when you are not even married. If you no buy kiss use , you go end up buying KissKid."

Let that sink in.
Because behind the humour lies a serious truth — many young people today are living with the consequences of temporary pleasure.

The Rise of Casual Intimacy, The Fall of Personal Responsibility

Sex is easy. Cheap even. One look, one smile, one drink, one text, and it’s on.
But here's what most people forget: Sex is not just fun — it’s power. It’s potential. It’s responsibility.

Every time you unzip without protection, you’re playing Russian Roulette with your future:

Unplanned pregnancies.

STDs.

Broken dreams.

Lifelong financial pressure.

Emotional baggage.

Some of us joke about it—“Na just cruise.”
But what happens when the “cruise” leads to a child you’re not ready for, with someone you barely know, under circumstances you never planned?

You don’t just buy “Kiss” (pleasure), now you’re stuck with “KissKid” (a lifelong responsibility).
And in most cases, both lives are affected—the man, the woman, and most tragically, the innocent child.


Sex Without Sense is a Setup

Let’s talk facts:

Over 7 million unplanned pregnancies occur in Nigeria annually.

A majority happen among unmarried youths between 18-30.

Most of them were never ready—financially, emotionally, spiritually.

What does this lead to?

Abandoned children.

Single mothers struggling.

Men ducking responsibilities.

Increased poverty.

Broken homes before they ever formed.


And all this started with just “small enjoyment,” with no plan for the aftermath.


Condoms Are Not Just Rubber, They Are Wisdom

You wouldn’t drive a car without brakes.
You wouldn’t jump out of a plane without a parachute.
So why sleep with someone without protection?

Using a condom isn’t just about avoiding pregnancy — it’s about protecting your goals, your dreams, your health, your peace.
It’s about understanding that you’re not just playing — you’re planting. And every action today has a fruit tomorrow.


“But I Love Her…” or “She Said She’s Safe…”

Love does not erase consequences.
Lust never asks for permission.
And assumptions have ruined more lives than accidents.

Many guys trusted “she said she’s safe.”
Only to hear a few weeks later: “I’m late.”
Then what?

She’s crying.
You’re panicking.
Your plans are on hold.
And boom — adulthood hits you with a slap of reality.


The Real Men Plan Ahead

Real men protect:

Their future.

Their partner.

Their peace of mind.

It’s not “unromantic” to use a condom.
It’s unwise not to.

If you can’t handle the consequence, you shouldn’t engage in the act.
If you’re not ready for a baby, don’t act like a baby-maker.

Final Words: Enjoy With Wisdom or Regret Without Mercy

The next time the heat rises and your hormones scream louder than your logic, remember this line:

“If you no buy Kiss, you go buy KissKid.”

It’s not a joke.
It’s a warning.
It’s a mirror.
It’s your life.

Enjoy yourself, yes.
But enjoy with sense.
Because one moment of pleasure can cost you a lifetime of pressure.

Let's be guided. Country Hard.

MASTAkiLLAh:
Imagine taking this bad habit to America huh Naija A list artistes are fond of doing this nonsense though we have to hear from Davido first but this thing is too damn regular here and I urge all upcoming artistes to try legal options in abroad just in case they've been ripped off like this though make sure your case is air tight before spending a dime
You don't need to hear from OBO. Na to wait make the court decide.
Celebrities › Re: Davido Summoned By US Court For Alleged Soundtrack Theft, $45,000 Debt by erniok(m): 8:58am On Apr 11, 2025
othermen:
Davido alias African giant version 3. His songs trend with ease. But not ‘Strawberry on Ice.’ I have never heard of the song.

The song must have sank into obscurity. If you check, Daniel Regha might have called it "forgettable," … so fans were indifferent, and within weeks the song vanished from playlists. The song was a flop.

Then came a group of four Nigerian artistes.

All relatively unknown. But now you want to check them out, and also check out the song in question.

So these artistes burst into the news cycle claiming ‘Strawberry on Ice’ was stolen from them, that it was an original song ‘work’ they had recorded which they shared with Davido.
Some of us might be interested in comparing, and then we will stream that song too.

So they filed a lawsuit against Davido, and as usual the internet lit up. Headlines, Social media, Bloggers, Wizkid fans, Burna boy fans… everybody have their take.

But most importantly people started listening to the song. They want to hear the "stolen" track. Streams will skyrocket. The song will trend. Might even enter the charts, and not because it was loved, or because it was a great song but because it was controversial. Curiosity drive clicks. And Clicks drive revenue.

So weeks later, the court will deliver its verdict: Davido will not pay them royalties and it will look like justice. It will look like closure. If he pays them, then his reputation is impaired. So in this orchestra, that is unnecessary.


So maybe they orchestrate this drama? And the lawsuit was their stage. And everyone outrage or interest was their marketing. Maybe what they lost in legal fees, they gained tenfold in streaming revenue, while the four artiste gained media exposure.

So they play the public.
You conspiracy theorists overthink.
Something like this happened to sisquo and in sisquo case, no agreement was don and when the song boomed, intellectual copyright theft came up and he lost.
Good news is that over there, experts will be presented to help the court decide and until then, make OBO ready im money.

Peter OBI Osu Igbo Christians supporters will never talk about how OJUKWU BETRAYED THEIR GREAT IKEMBA OJUKWU but quick to talk about how doyin okupe who never benefit anything from OBI betrayed OBI and how all yorubas are betrayals that are not to be trusted

Another point in the article that I really resonate with is the fact that PETER OBI IS NOT BRILLIANT AND INTELLIGENT. I listened to Peter OBI Just twice to come to that conclusion
Ojukwu betrayed ojukwu?? Reallyhuh

NoIgboSoundTueh:
To be honest and fair to Peter Obi, he did everything he could in 2023. He visited mosques, attended churches, tried to appeal to every part of Nigeria. But the truth is
he’s an Igbo man, and that alone made many Nigerians not trust him.

There’s a deep believe that an Igbo man in power will be dangerous to Muslims and non-Igbos. many Nigerians genuinely believe an Igbo president would be vengeful. Look at how some Igbos online openly cheer the killing of babies in Palestine that alone prove the deep hatred non Igbo have for Igbo is justified.

if Peter Obi is intelligent( we all know he’s not)and has the answers to Nigeria’s problems, it doesn’t matter. Nigerians won’t support him. He came from the wrong tribe


Our only hope now is that the kind of leader who can save Nigeria comes from the North, South-West, or South-South someone the majority can trust, not fear.
The bolded got me thinking, if you are in a hospital, at the point of death and need blood transfusion that will save your life. Would you explicitly instruct: no, not a drop of igbo blood?
I need an answer.

Yea. But sometimes, it has subtle errors. Like in this pix, Declan Rice is supposed to be dishing from the pot while all Madrid players hold plate but look what it did with Mbappe and Rice; reverse.

Some times, 6 or 4 fingers or three hands with one slightly hidden.
Rice is dishing out and so has to hold the plate.Mbappe just couldn't wait

On the issue of fingers, younareclate to the party as most AI tools have improved on that.

donproject2:
People will come online to provide half information to denigrate others just to have cheap scores.

A guy in my apartment would leave his 2 HP AC switch on all the times, and this is a place where we have light almost 24 hours a day, the first bill that was released after he installed the AC, his bill was so huge, mind you, we use meter reader.

The guy started complaining that he can't be paying huge some for electricity, asking rheotorical questions like should NEPA bill in a years be more than house rent, I aggresively told him you can even pay a month bill equivalent to your 1 year house rent if you have heavy appliances that consume energy so well. Ever since that day, I have never heard the sound of his AC's compressor again.
With meter reader, I have no complaints as you pay for what you consume but estimate billing is crazy.

They tell you the pick meter reading from transformer meanwhile transformer is for everyone both estimated and metered customers.
