Time to straighten some people out.


Let's stop all this trash! Being rich isn't the problem. Being covetous is. Covetousness is taking something that doesn't belong to you and COVETING it as your own personal property.

The blessings of God EXIST and it only works by OBIEDIENCE to God's written word as well as God's spoken word to your spirit (RHEMA)

There's a BIG DIFFERENCE between the Blessings of God and RICHES obtained by COVETOUSNESS.

If a non-pastor or a non christian bought a porshe we would think nothing of it; yet almost everyone here will see nothing wrong in it if they were appointed into public office only to COVERT public money as well as Assets for their own property. You will be judged with the SAME MEASURE with which you judge others.

There are many well educated men and women who were high flyers in their chosen profession before God called them into ministry, forsaking all for God to serve him with their TIME, ENERGY and TALENTS as well as their RESOURCES and God has blessed them tremendously.

Pleaaase I'm not supporting Pastors who are THIVES and COVETOUS.

A parcel bomb in 1986 in Nigeria was way too sophisticated for the Military Government of the time not to have known about it. Never happened before and never happened since

My father died in that flight. I was only 6yrs old my younger brother was 9 months old

So sorry for your loss.

pcguru1:
My dad was actually one of those victims on the C130 Major Okeowo Aderemi

Am so Sorry for your loss, dear. Both of my parents who were military officers lost their friends and colleagues in that ill fated air crash. Watched clips of the crash site on TV t the time. The images have been brunt into my memory.

Hahahaha I don't know the kind of women you encounter but all the ones I know pay their own bills and only date one guy at a time. I personally think that's awful. But everyone has a right to whatever suits them. Anyways, demanding for sex would make you no different to these women.

Well then you must be the type that's not only well brought up, but refined and cultured in disposition, orientation and behavior.

There are different kinds of men, just like there are women/ladies, that's why we can't speak for all of them as a whole simply because they are our gender. With regards to this issue, a lot of ladies have horrible behavior which brings out the worst in men. No man likes to be played, and a lot of ladies can 'form' or pretend to be something they're not. If a lady for instance, who isn't a virgin and who probably is sexually active says no to sex from a guy who asks her out on the pretext that she just wants to 'date' him without having sex with him, yet she keeps demanding for money from the same guy to foot her bills, taking advantage of his emotions yet this same guy finds out she has another guy (her REAL Bf) who's shagging her, what kind of arrangement is that?? He's being played for a fool. Encountered quite a number of girls like that (in our path thru life you meet the good, the bad and the awful ) who tried to play smart with me and I made sure all of 'em got burnt. But it's fast becoming a trend with lots of young ladies(not all) who probably think it's harmless to convert a guy's emotions to a steady flow of income and then dump him, leaving him emotionally and financially bankrupt.

YourMain:
What ? When do we place you in categories ?

Yes you do.

1. Maga
2. Bad Market
3. Friends who have been forcefully friend zoned.
4. Friends with benefits.

We are in Nigeria and we know what's up. Times are hard. We are in the days girls have more than one boyfriend. They gat bills to pay and so keep bf's that will meet their financial needs especially when in school. Wish the guys will straighten up nd be cold with their hard earned cash. Money doesn't grow on trees. Be looking for who to turn to their walking ATM. Have 20 guys and be asking all of them to send 5,000 each without any of them ever knowing. Want to be "controlling" money, knocking a bunch of idioti.c guys heads together.

For ladies with Beauty and Brains, Good for you.


No manners? That's not an asset. That's a LIABILITY. It's not a Plus, It's a MINUS. It will attract the wrong guys to you and push the right guys away from you instead of attracting the right guys and pushing the wrong ones away.
Pride, arrogance, high mindedness doesn't pay. Check the end of those who have had it.

noble2faith:
A beautiful girl without good manner can be likened to a Gold ring in the snout of a pig!!!

Spot on. Prov 11:22

Estharfabian:
well, why can't they??
If she's pretty in all Areas..most guys would jump in and Dive...ignoring the "No manners" part...

They'd still be the one to cheat on those Educated, Averagely pretty and Well mannered ladies...And still have the nerves, temerity, audacity/effrontery to come here screaming "Hell to the No" "never" blah! blah!!...Psychotic confused Hypocrites!!

I'm a man and there's NO CONFUSION WHATSOEVER about this. Question: It says,"can you marry" Answer: No. Date; Yes. Why? So as to teach her a lesson by bangin.g the hell out of her...well, at least, that's what many a guy would do. I know. Men know men. Looks are deceptive and Beauty is vain.

JingoOAU:
Hey u...what are u taking us for....are you trying to blackmail us

I am not a fan of too long story, and dis is the first time I will open a thread and read everything from first page to this present page and when u are even suppose to be appreciative for the supportive comments so far, u even have the guts to walk out on us....what an insult

Abeg if u wan walk out, kindly buy recharge card and refund every MB I wasted reading everything frm the begining....nonsense

Took the words right out of my mouth..I hate arrogance

Good God!

Stumbled on this thread late.


We know our resources are dwindling. We know. Private organizations have since downsized/sacked workers. Instead of government taking the easy way out he's doing right by them. There are no jobs outside.

^^^The person above me is tired. The person below me is a sissy

alcmene:
You can't help loving this man for his doggedness

PDP government will never be party to the minimum wage reduction initiated by the APC government in order to further impoverish the masses after denying promising the youth 5k and daily meal for school kids

Instead of reducing workers salary, Buhari's should cut down the expenditures incurred in his unending oversea trips and give the money to some failed states like Osun for sustenance

Osun workers have not done any wrong by finding themselves in the claws of the bearded masqurade and shall not be buried with empty stomach

Where were you when the governors of Edo and Ogun, who are APC governors, disassociated themselves from the calls to retrench and/or slash salaries of their state workers?

I'm not an advocate of "no sex before marriage" but I'm a die hard advocate of SEXUAL PURITY before marriage. Which lady (who isn't a virgin and is probably sexually active) will open her mouth to tell me 'no sex until wedding night' ?

There's no honesty, purity, godliness and truth anymore. Only lies and deceit and 'fake external packaging'. All the sexual excitement is gone; and like the liability they have become, they will look for where they can 'land'.

Quite unfortunate. We will be rid of them at last. My condolences to the family of the victims. The army shouldn't rest on it's oars until this wicked enemy is wiped out. The President's Physical presence in the country wouldn't have stopped today's bombing.

Dannyset:
Oral approval is no evidence bro!

Then who gave the order for such a huge amount to first be given to him, awaiting for further instruction on disbursement? Then WHO GAVE HIM THE ORDER ??

erico2k2:
Just remember. More loans.

Loans for capital projects, not to pay salaries like his predecessor.

Got this amusing piece off of a friend's watsapp and decided to share. I think it's hugely significant

LETTER TO NIGERIAN PARENTS (PART 1)

Dear All- Let's be real.

I wish to start by adding the benefit of my time as a student and then resident in the UK. Living in Abuja now. The first thing that I discovered about UK-born, white, English undergraduates was that all of them did holiday or weekend job to support themselves – including the children of millionaires amongst them. It is the norm over there – regardless of how wealthy their parents are. And I soon discovered that virtually all other foreign students did the same – except status – conscious Nigerians.

I also watched Richard Branson (owner of Virgin Airline) speaking on the Biography Channel. To my amazement, he said that his young children travel in the economy class – even when the parents (he and his wife) are in upper class. Richard Branson is a billionaire in Pound sterling. A quick survey would show you that only children from Nigeria fly business or upper class to commence their studies in the UK. No other foreign students do this. There is no aircraft attached to the office of the Prime Minister in the UK. He travels on BA. And the same goes for the Royals. The Queen does not have an aircraft for her exclusive use.

These practices simply become the culture which the next generation carries forward. Have you seen the car that Kate Middleton (the wife of Prince William) drives? VW Golf or something close to it. But there’s one core difference between them and us (generally speaking), they (even the billionaires among them) work for their money, most of us steal ours

If we want our children to bring about the desired change we have been praying for on behalf of our dear country, then please, please let’s begin now and teach them to work hard so they can stand alone and most importantly be content and not having to “steal” which seems to be the norm these days.

We have Nigerian Children who have never worked for 5 minutes in their lives insisting on flying “only” first or business class and using the latest cars fully paid for by their “loving“ parents.

I often get calls from anxious parents” my son graduated 2 years ago and is still looking for a job, can you please assist!”

“Oh really! So where exactly is “THIS CHILD?” is my usual question. “Why are you the one making this call dad/mum?"

I am yet to get a satisfactory answer, but between you and i, chances are that the big boy is cruising around Abuja with a babe dressed to the nines, in his dad’s sparkling new SUV with enough “pocket money” to put your salary to shame. It is not at all strange to hear a 28 year old who has NEVER worked for a day in his or her life in Nigeria but “earns” a six figure “salary” from parents for doing absolutely nothing.

I see them in my office once in a while, 26 years old with absolutely no skill to sell apart from a shiny CV, written by his dad’s secretary in the office. Of course, he has a driver at his beck and call and he is driven to the job interview. We have a fairly decent conversation and we get to the inevitable question- so, what salary are you looking to earn? Answer comes straight out – N250,000.00. I ask if that is per month or per annum.

“Of course, it is per month”

“Oh, why do you think you should be earning that much on your first job?”

“Well, because my current pocket money is N200,000.00 and I feel any employer should be able to pay me more than my parents.”

No wonder corruption continues to thrive. We have a society of young people who have been brought up to expect something for nothing, as if it were a birthright. Even though the examples I have given above are from parents of considerable affluence, similar patterns can be observed from Abeokuta to Adamawa.

Wake up mum! Wake up dad! This syndrome – “my children will not suffer what I suffered" is destroying your tomorrow. You are practically loving your child to death.

I learnt the children of a former Nigeria Head of State with all the stolen (billions) monies in their custody, still go about with security escort as wrecks. They are on drugs, several time because of the drug, they collapse in public places. The escort will quickly pack them and off they go. What a life! No one wants to marry them.

Henry Ford said “hard work does not kill.” We are getting everything wrong in Nigeria now, including family setting. It is time to prepare your children for tomorrow, the way the world is going, only those that are rugged, hard working and smart working that will survive. How will your ward fare?

Please forward this to all the parents you know and love. We must begin to save our young children from unintended consequences of "too much love" and weak parenting.

May I remind you there has been MAaSSOB since the days of Obasanjo in 1999 or are u teen born in 2000?

Secondly the confab contains a lot of resource control to regions something close to self determination

But. For buhari this fake federal system that can't sustain on oil money again must continue

I ask you what I ask my yoruba friends: if the Northern youths were the ones agitating like the IPOB would you not ne glad?
Buhari is not helping matters by reducing the issues to forceful response

I need you to say the truth here



This is the age of freedom and this is no military era

Please! You and I both know that if Jonathan had won the last Presidential election, there will be no such agitation. I STAND TO BE CORRECTED. Some of us in yorubaland knew this was coming because we suspected some miscreants like Asari Dokubo and co kept making references to war if Jonathan loses the election. We know that huge stockpile of weapons were purchased for this purpose by cronies of the previous administration and the real intention of this agitation is to scatter the country and turn it into a war zone area because of it's rich resources. The WHOLE PICTURE isn't obvious to you because you are just pawns on the chess board of this power struggle-foot soldiers who are expendable once the power brokers are ready to move into the next stage of their evil agenda.

Excellentmind:
Not even your crying can stop a fight for freedom. It's constitutional.

Who's crying?? You must be delusional. If I had the power you will be allowed cessation immediately. Good riddance

If Jonathan had won the last Presidential election I'm very sure none of this Idiotic struggle would have come up. You didn't agitate for 6 good years PDP was in power yet LESS THAN FIVE MONTHS of APC rule you're screaming biafra to the high heavens.
