lol! I knew u are gonna throw insult, that's ur kinda person. but around here, have seen people with 3 kids suffering, have seen people with less than 2 kids unable to feed, however, having too many kids makes the situation worse for some, but not all. see now? that's more civil.

Go and do your OWN probe and you will find out that the MAJORITY of Nigerians who are suffering have more wives and children THAN THEY SHOULD HAVE! It is those people and the unwanted family members that are suffering.

Most of problems in Nigeria are (CITIZEN) self-inflicted!

I will laugh very hard, @ PDP when the results start trickling in on that day... grin grin

There are two Governors in Nigeria who can never lose election in this era...

Rochas Okorocha and The Only Adams Oshiomole...


Go and Print it somewhere....

Election is not by propaganda nor online fake threads...it is by what happens on the day of election..
need to ask, which part of the country are u? somewhere far from Edo state am sure. the Edo people I lived with have been patiently waiting, counting days. if there is any governor that can be defeated at the moment, it is Oshomole, the guy is a monumental disappointment, even a dumb understands. BTW, Buhari won d last election first online before the election day, no sane politician will ignore online polls n op in a gubernatorial election in this 21st century.

sincerely speaking, I am happy for mama G, but being born again doesn't mean you stop being human, a christian is still allowed to dress well, corporately, but with modesty. I don't see how dressing like a widow in mourning bring glory to God, u may do away with jewelries, make up all that, but dress so well that people will want to be like u. being a Christian is more than clothing, except one is a hypocrite.

the whole country voted for the president and his vice . to show you how important that position is.
how many people voted for the senate president answer?
less than 150.
moreover , its bad timing from Saraki
this is democracy, there is direct and indirect voting, indirectly, the whole country voted the leadership of N/A in. agree its a bad timing though.

there is NO POINT at all! Granting the Legislators immunity is same as saying once you are a legislator you can't be prosecuted for the rest of your life because some can spend 30years plus on the sit while the executive only has 8years max. The guy saraki is a thief looking for every avenue to escape.
calm down a bit, not once you are a senator, but once you are a senate president, 1 person out of 109 senators. plus if one can be a senator for life, can one be a senate president for life in a country like Nigeria?

midolian:
Criminals too want to enjoy immunity... grin grin grin

Now, lemme ask.. If the legislooters enjoy immunity, when will they pay for their sins? Eg..David Mark was SP for 8yrs[if Buhari had not won election, he'ld still be there] and he has been in the Senate for over 16yrs...if we r to wait till he leaves the senate b4 dealing with him, it means we ll wait forever..cos this man wld love to be there till death says otherwise.

Plus, it has been observed with dismay that most of these governors, after spending 8yrs looting their state's treasury, tend "to seek asylum" in the Senate. For goodness sake, imagine these conglomerate of looters having immunity..just imagine it. Not even one of them(SP) is imaginable. angry angry

The Executive(Buhari & co) on the other hand can only be there for a maximum period of 8yrs after which they can pay for their crimes(if any).
the proposed immunity is not for all senators but for the senate president alone, remember that a senator must have served for at least four years to be qualified for a senate president, that is to say, a former governor cannot enjoy immunity for at least four years after leaving office.

Why is everyone shying away from the real situation ? The man has married this wives already b4 coming the lord. Don't you think sending the other wives parking is evil and wicked ?

Everyone is merely quoting scriptures that doesn't explain this scenario.

Sending the other wives can be very costly. Let me give you reasons
1 The other wives might frown at the religion that cost them their place in their husband's home. As Christians, we should be winning souls for God and not sending souls away.

2. The children. Do you know whats growing up in a broken home like?. Damn, I bet u have no idea. These children might grow to hate Christianity to the core of their bones.

Why should we break homes, when we can save the whole of the home ? Remember God wants us to win souls

Why should we break a home because of a verse does not clearly describe this scenario?

When God said do not Judge... he has a reason for saying that.
I think yours is the most appropriate contribution have seen. after reading several comments and replying some, my conclusion is, most of us are naive and myopic, we lack understanding and depth.

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." (2 Timothy 4:3-4). Evidently signs of the end time. People will seek to deliberately miscontrue the words and commandments of God. Fornication is now deemed normal, acceptable and makes up our daily living. Shall we continue to sin that grace may abound? O.P nothing like modern day christianity. Jesus christ is the same yesterday, today, and Forever. The man should put away his 2nd 3rd..and other concubines and stick with the first. Polygamy is unacceptable in Christianity. One man, one wife. The instruction is very clear. To those supporting polygamy, you better repent........ Or IN SMAUG'S VOICE..you will burn!
do u agree that by doing that, the man is destroying the lives of the other women he married cause he wishes to save himself? for example, he married three wives, the last one has spent 15 years with him, birthing 5 children. what happens to those women?

bringing the 4 wives to d knowledge of truth while still sleeping with them huh that is why d kingdom of God is not as cheap as you think . settle them to go. you will b sending means to them pending on when they get another husband.
technically, those women are divorced, so what happens if they remarry? they become adulterers? so let's say, the newly born again man used the women as a pawn to save himself? I don't feel comfortable with that. why destroy other people's life cause u want to save urs?

Abra4real:
Okay, let me chip in at this point. Among all those replies above me, I haven't seen any that answered it very well. Note that I'm not replying to fight or argue (fact check, if you quote me, I won't reply, except when necessary e.g. answering a thought-provoking question), I'm actually replying to adhere to what the Bible tells me.

Jude 3 says, Beloved when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnest contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

First, someone mentioned that God hates divorce. Here's the verse to back that up: Malachi 2 vs 14-16:

14 Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet yet she is thy companion, and the wife of thine covenant.

15 And did not make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.

16 For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away [of your wife, which is divorce]: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.

Did you notice the part that says God hates putting away? For God to say that, there must be something at stake. Because clearly, in Matthew 5 vs 22, But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgement...

Even hating your fellow human isn't allowed. But you should also notice that God didn't say I hate the person. He simply hates putting away.

About having multiple wifes, hear it from the horses' mouth, in Matthew 19 vs 9, And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, COMMITTED ADULTERY: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.


Now, I read some comments that said what if a whole village got saved and were extremely polygamous? Well, you have to know that the God we serve, the Alpha and the Omega does not change (Malachi 3 vs 6, For I am the LORD, I change not...) and even if the whole world says they don't want to change, he won't change his words.

Many people think we just go to church, sing, carry Bible on Sundays, wear suit and tie, and say "God bless you" on our way to church. For your information, it's more than that. If you can't live with that simple fact, then I'm afraid you're not yet serious.

In the Biblical sense, a first wife is only recognized. Think about this for a moment. When someone is getting married, the vow says, Till Death Do You Part. What do you think that means?

Only after a partner dies does the other partner has the freedom... TO MARRY ANOTHER PERSON... TO HAVE SEX WITH ANOTHER PERSON. Chikena.

So, if death hasn't done them apart, forget about it.

Now, somebody says what if they were married the same day. You mean, simultaneously? As in, each wife stands at the altar and were consenting to the marriage? That's obvious now. The first woman that takes the vow is the real wife.


Some people still don't give a hoot about what I wrote, but they are the first that will carry the news when the likes of Pastor Kumuyi, of all people, makes a mistake (God forbid!)

They'll go, "Ah! Come and see! The holy-holy preacher has done something. He was caught redhanded."

Now the man decides to remarry because death has parted the union he has with his former wife and these same people groaned, "Ah-an! What is it with this pastor sef? Na only him waka come?"

People ehn!
I completely agree with ur point but I have a question. if a man in a polygamous marriage becomes born again, let's say he has 3 wives and they all have children for him, now, if he put the two away after marrying them traditionally, what happens to the women? are they free to marry again without ending up as adulterers because that is what Jesus called a divorced woman who chose to remarry. should we say the man has technically destroyed the lives of the two women he later dumped cause of his new faith? what should we call the man? or maybe the women can go ahead and remarry without being called adulterers since the man wrongly married them.
sorry my question wasn't properly constructed, hope u will understand my point.

'Lord Show me a Sign"..by DMX..yea..the same DMX... is 'secular'...but wayyyy more uplifting than soooooo many many Christian music.
how is 'I will bless the Lord' blasphemy? I know what you mean, but understand the word bless from a different angle. and check Psalm 103:1 too. it is the bible. bless here is worship, honor, give glory to...

The answer is CAPITAL "NO". The two cannot work together. It's either you are for God or for the devil. You cannot be on the fence. No matter the number of times they (the singer) mention the name of Jesus in a worldly music, that does not make it acceptable before God. As a true child of God that has the hope of going to heaven, you are not suppose to take pleasure in listening to worldly music. Music like "Na God win ooo, na God win. They say my music no go sale, na God win". As far as I'm concern any body that wants to go to heaven, that music is worldly and should not be listened to by a true Christian. "He that has this hope of going to heaven should purify himself even as Christ is pure". Know he not that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Pls
kinda agree with ur points, but not completely. do u know the secret life of some so called gospel singers? I challenge u to watch Kingdom Africa television on dstv, see musical videos of somr so called gospel singers, Korede bello is more decent than most. tell u how I tag a song spiritual? how my soul respond to it, u play some christian songs and you start dancing wildly without knowing it, that's not a spiritual song to me.

How to avoid npower registration fraud in Nigeria

Handing over your username, password, bvn, and other personal details to someone you don't trust could be risky just as registration requirements contain vital info about your financial details.

A lot of links are out there directing you to use the link to register for npower, pls disregard any shortened URL or any hidden link. Because fraudsters are going to also use this opportunity to get BVN, and other personal details which might be used against you later.

If you are unable to register now, try later in the day.

Don't drop your email address on public forum to avoid unsolicited messages targeting your personal details.

If all what you got on npower.gov.ng is NGINX close the page and try again later.



Also........



If you're able to get to the final stage: submission page of npower portal, you clicked on it and you're taken back to page 1, close the page, it means your application has been received.

However, you might not get congratulatory email immediately.

One of the applicants just told me she just got acknowledgment email today Thursday containing her registration number having submitted on Monday .

If you're facing the same issue, please be patient and keep checking your inbox and spam folder for any updates.

All the best!
I registered with email,username n password,but when I wanted to proceed later, it didn't ask me to login with email n password, just took me straight to register my info n upload certificates. is this normal? wanted to register for n-power creative
