If you think you have won, that you have successfully crash MMM, good for you. May God bless you. But please, allow us to rest.

Since you have that money, start a good business. Employ people and pay them peanut. 20k is too much to pay your employees, but it can hardly pay their transport to your place of business a month. Allow us to rest, OK?

Apa avengers get ready
broseme:
EXPERTS VISIT OIL WELLS SITE AT OKWUJI AGAIN.

The Sole Administrator of Apa Local Government Council Chief Hon. Solomon Oche Danjuma received experts again from Abuja to ascertain the quantity of oil deposits at the site.

After thorough investigation, the engineers discovered that the oil deposits is of commercial quantity but they will still go to Abuja to come back with more experts to open the sealed abandoned oil wells.

A villager Mr Francis Akogwu who worked with the oil company narrated that oil was truly discovered in the place in the 1960s but the whites left because of the civil war that broke out then.

Mr Akogwu said the whites drilled as deep as 14,000ft before they discovered the oil deposits, he also said the whites told them as at that time that the oil deposits is very large and of commercial quantity as it extends to Asaba in Ojantele/Akpete ward, extends to Okpoo in Ikobi Ward and also extends to the large palm trees orchard between Ankpali and Ebugodo in Edikwu Ward II all of Apa Local Government Council.

The villager also gave the name of the oil company as FOREX OIL DRILLING COMPANY and was able to remember the names of two whites then as Raphael and Rusell while over all man was Mr Tu Pusser who always visited them with helicopter.

On his part, the Sole Administrator of Apa LG Chief Hon Solomon Oche Danjuma thanked the experts for always honouring his invitation and also informed them that he always ready to support and meet their demands to ensure the exploration of oil in Apa LG, he charged the host community to always guide the site as no one is permitted to visit the site except they receive instruction from the Council.

Christianity EtcRe: Mike Bamiloye Thinks Comedy In The Church Is A Bad Idea by giftiy(m): 9:07pm On Dec 12, 2016
This man is one person. I respect. God bless you sir
FlirtyKaren:
As shared on Facebook by Pastor Mike Bamiloye of Mount Zion Faith Ministries International:

As per COMEDY in Church Meetings and Events!!

I want to address Christians - ALL denominations - this morning without prejudice!

For a long while I have questioned the inclusion of COMEDY in Church events. What do I question?

The fact that the comedians brought in are allowed to make jokes of scriptures, the Blood of Jesus, speaking in tongues, the throne of grace etc.' AND WE SIT THERE LAUGHING!

What are we laughing at? What is funny? Mocking God and Christ and the Holy Spirit and the Word is funnyhuh?
We hear of other religions where they are obsessed with protecting the image of their Leader and we gleefully allow people to MOCK our Leader JESUS CHRIST and the Holy Spirit and thereby indirectly MOCKING GOD!!! They look at us with disdain because we are BAD AMBASSADORS of our faith!

Lukewarmness and cynicism has crept slowly into the life of Christians. We pull ourselves down publicly, abuse leaders of the gospel will glee, mock certain commandments of God. YET when we run into trouble who do we call uponhuh
Bible has already stated that towards the end times there will be mockers of the gospel and preachers doing wrong. WHY ARE YOU ALLOWING YOURSELF TO BE ONE OF THEMhuh

We come into Facebook and spew out curses and abuses - mock the commandments especially when it comes to forgiveness issues and honour of parents etc and we go to church and lift up hands and voices to WHOhuh HE who we MOCK with DISOBEDIENCE?

We quickly mouth monotonous words - God is in control! Amen! It is well! Praise God etc but do we HONOUR HIM with our words and actionshuh We are humans and not perfect but SHOULD WE MOCK THE CORE COMPONENTS OF OUR FAITHhuh

I was thinking of all this since Friday when a comedian was allowed in the stage at the EXPERIENCE to use a scripture in the Old Testament as foundation for his jokes! I LAUGHED also but later felt badly convicted and I said I will speak out - then this morning I received the message below in my whatsapp and I said - somebody feels the same way I do. It is long but worth reading -

FROM ANONYMOUS ......
I was brought up under very rigid church atmosphere, to humor during a sermon was almost Like a sin,,
Then came " knowledge" we felt we had been too religious, somewhat and somehow ,we threw away the baby with the bath water..
We introduced fun into services,
From dance steps to many other things ,
" to the pure all things are pure ", we must have quoted .
What we failed to see is the side effects of entertainment:
- Lightness
- Looseness
- Loquaciousness
- The spirit of lasciviousness prevailed .
Then the latest miasma ..
COMEDY
Sad enough, recently I found myself laugh at one of such instances ,and quickly I Checked myself " are you losing your mind " I asked myself -
Comical jokes and ridiculous jokes poked at scripturally awed activities!!!!!!
- Jokes about casting out demons ( when fewer believers actually cast out Demons )
- Mockery about tongues ( called a communication with the Father )
- Gifts of the spirit used as comedy and to generate hilarity ( whereas fewer believers walk in the gifts )
- Ministry of angels used as comical relief ..
- Judgment seat of Christ made to look like theatre too.
- Most vitally, preachers of the gospels in humor mannequin for laughs and fun.
The list goes on ..What exactly is happeninghuh

The Yorubas say " it's a bastard who uses his left hand to describe his fathers house "
We mustn't be so behaved .
We should know the importance of the above activities, things Christ purchased( made available ) with His blood, found only in His spirit
They can't be used for drama and comedy to laugh and jeer or cheer!!!
IT MUST STOP !

1 Timothy 3:15 KJV
[15] But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

A fellow told me: "laughter is medicine for the soul"
I said, "the laughter needed, Is it referring to laughing from a joke,or joy in the Holy Ghost ? There is joy in the Holy Ghost

Jesus demonstrated it, the church in act, Paul and the apostles taught it and they weren't referring to making a mockery of spiritual things .
Nothing wrong in humor but keep away things of the faith and verity

Like paul admonished -
Ephesians 5:4 KJV
[4] Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
Let's have the consecration of the old timers and behave ourselves in the house !

If your church members are carnal, no need feeding their carnality, feed them spiritual realities
Those of us here who believe these jesters and comedians are desecrating the altar of God should rise and oppose this when they are brought to your church.

Go meet the leadership in office and express your mind. Once we don't create an atmosphere of seriousness and worship, what right do we have to expect the manifestation of God's glory in our midst?
Jesters and mockers can go to wedding receptions and wherever.

Yet if you mock or despise holy things, you can still come under God's judgment.
They joke about the blood of Jesus, the name of Jesus, choruses etc. When they are in trouble and need the blood or the Name, how can it work for them?
So there it is: what is the stance you will takehuh Join the revelers or stand against MOCKERY in the name of COMEDY in Church activities and eventshuh
I have said my own!
Laila St. Matthew-Daniel

Treasuredlove:
There are many decent wedding gown designs that are beautiful and more than modest in style and price. I am sorry but the bride and her bridesmaid look like they are wearing Cele gown and the husband looks trendier. Women deserve beautiful things, even in modesty. I can sketch within 5 mins a beautiful modest wedding gown that would look extra beautiful on her and even the church won't raise an eyebrow.

Orji Uzo Kalu is a disgrace to all Igbos. Of all the parties he could have joined, APGA, LABOUR, KOWA, he chose the party of the Devil himself called APC.

When I remember that years ago, this man was so popular in Igboland that he was given the title of "Olile Anya Ndigbo" I just cant believe it.

Somebody better advice advice Orji Uzo Kalu and Okoroawusa not to come to Anambra with their APC nonsense or we will show them what we do to APC people! They can ask the short midget called El Rufai about his experience

NwamaziNwaAro:
Hello all.
I was driving to Owerri and on the road I saw over 12 already registered vehicles impounded by the custom officials who have a check point there.

Can someone experienced tell me what to do if your car has no valid custom papers,

Can the custom papers be gotten?

Is there a legislation that protects innocent car owners who do not know they were given fake custom papers.

Is there a fine to redeem impounded vehicleshuh

or will a car be forfeited once it is impounded by customs officials for not having custom papers.


Thank you

Most Nigerian drivers need this information to avoid getting into such unimaginable situation.

NYSCRe: Ex-Corper Travels From Ibadan To Makurdi On Bicycle (Photos) by giftiy(m): 1:59pm On Nov 15, 2016
Madness get grade.
LasgidiOnline:
Ahungwa Sekav Isaac, a graduate of Statistics from the prestigious Federal University of Agriculture Makurdi Benue State upon completion of his compulsory 1 year NYSC in Ibadan Oyo state embarked on a 14 days bicycle ride back to Makurdi to present his certificate to the governor of Benue State, Dr. Samuel Ortom.

According to Sekav, This 14 days tour is to show to Nigerians and the world that, Nigerians can only survive and avoid the current hardship only by Hardwork, Belief, Perseverance, and Determination.

The project he tagged "Patriotic Tour" was started on the 5th of November and he will be ending in Makurdi on Monday 21th November 2016 with a distance covered of 873km. The tour was endorsed by Radio Nigeria zonal headquarters Ibadan for publicity.

He travelled all the way from Ibadan Oyo state sharing photos as he enters each town and city, as at yesterday November 14th, which is Day 11 of the patriotic tour, Sekav arrived Adoka Polytechnic in Benue State.

In an exclusive interview with Lasgidi Online on phone, Sekav said he's still in Adoka due to a flat tire and his visit to a secondary school in the town.

In the interview, Sekav revealed that, he will finally be arriving Makurdi on Monday 21st November against the initial set date of Friday 18th November due to the increasing number of schools he will be stopping by to talk to students as part of activities during the tour.

We also got exclusive photos from this tour as he started in Ibadan till this moment, see them below...

I want you to understand that marriage is not all about age but maturity of the mind and your understanding of what marriage is all about.if you are doing well in business, I advice you shun the abroad stuff,get a private teacher to teach you the needful, get married and focus on your bussiness. At 35 years after school you may end up not using the certificate cos age of employment theses days is between 23-27 except government establishment which I don't think a business minded person can endure such kind of jobs.I became 30 last month and am getting married by December.

lanre80:
This man is a professional liar. I pity the youth of our generation who fall for cheap propaganda from politians and this has continued in upward trajectory. The thing is our generation don't read or lack memory or probably don't have intuition to study and understand there environment. I am not a politian but I read and I can depict truth from lies beyond that I travel alot. Presently i'm in Benue.
The problem of Benue or any other part of Nigeria is not partisan politics (APC or PDP) but across the divide . Our problem is a failed organization structure of governance.
Let me bring back memory or enlighten you. Ortom used to be staunch PDP man. He was a LG chairman and even had federal appointment in abuja before becoming a governor under auspices of PDP. Then he decamped to APC with money stolen from Abuja with the help of George Akume and be became Governor. Obviously money exchanged hands and Akume holds machinery of APC. What do you expect? Off cause he sold it to the highest bidder. Now why all this story? You see Ortom and many other PDP guys who decamped to APC also used thugs as a catalyst during election. Most of the thugs have been used since PDP days. This is a way of life for politicians in Nigeria not PDP or APC. Furthermore, after election these thugs have been used by the likes of Ortom but no settlement because money was not flowing. They resorted to vices, cultism, robbery etc. Ortom needed to get his house in order, therefore reason for introducing Amnesty and recovery of weapons.
You see these men have dead conscience. Stealing and lying has become a norm for them. He lies about salaries, project, allocation etc and just almost anything
