The roads are critical. Used by both the rich and the poor.
Racoon: This is not funny @all. Building useless roads while people are dying, insecure? Why borrowing to fund projects that are of no economic value to the dying citizens of this nation? God punish whoever put Nigeria in this mess with the plagues of Buhari and Tinubu.
Her reaction reveals her state of mind at that very moment. It likely had nothing to do with you.
Assign zero meaning to it.
bigpriik: I am a final year student in one of Lagos prominent higher institutions,I get along so well with my coursemates because I am the jovial type and this behaviour has opened so much financial opportunities for me in campus because my coursemates never hide updates from me. There is this girl who is also a coursemate of mine, we get along so well, and trust me I have never asked her or any of my female coursemates out before, we are just friends and coursemates thats all however for about a week I have not seeing this girl in class and out of nowhere I saw her on my way out of the school gate, immediately I saw her I was like wooww were have you being all this while I tried playfully tried blocking her way omo this girl just screamed at the top of her voice that I should leave her alone that she is not in the mood in public eyes I mean in the school gate . I was so humiliated and shocked because she made it seems like I was making sexual advance on her and we never knew, I left the scene immediately out of shame and headed home immediately, now I want to teach this girl a lesson because it's okay to be in a bad mood as humans but transferring the aggression to an innocent person is totally out of it.
Pagan traditions are already part and parcel of many present day Christian practices.
obonujoker: Only through The God of heaven and the Earth. The creator of the universe, can we have the will and power to focus on all these things you mentioned.
Man can do nothing without God. His thoughts are continually evil. And so it needs to be cleansed and separated from Pagan practices and traditions, etc, to achieve all those

1. The passage is a metaphor or allegory, not meant to be read literally. It has a deeper hidden meaning.
2. Those are his people and he can kill them if he wants, like the Nigerian government killing Nigerian citizens when they "disobey".
Psalm 22:28. In the King James Version (KJV), it reads: "For the kingdom is the LORD'S: and he is the governor among the nations."
3. God is subject to human-like emotional reactivity like jealousy, anger, murderous rage followed by repentance.
Exodus 32:14 ► King James Bible
And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
4. The God in the old testament is not the God Jesus referred to as Father.
John 8:44 New International Version 44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Choose one.
DeepSight: Who can explain the murderous callousness here?
2 Samuel 24
1 Again the anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and he incited David against them, saying, “Go and take a census of Israel and Judah.”
2 So the king said to Joab and the army commanders[a] with him, “Go throughout the tribes of Israel from Dan to Beersheba and enroll the fighting men, so that I may know how many there are.”
3 But Joab replied to the king, “May the Lord your God multiply the troops a hundred times over, and may the eyes of my lord the king see it. But why does my lord the king want to do such a thing?”
4 The king’s word, however, overruled Joab and the army commanders; so they left the presence of the king to enroll the fighting men of Israel.
5 After crossing the Jordan, they camped near Aroer, south of the town in the gorge, and then went through Gad and on to Jazer. 6 They went to Gilead and the region of Tahtim Hodshi, and on to Dan Jaan and around toward Sidon. 7 Then they went toward the fortress of Tyre and all the towns of the Hivites and Canaanites. Finally, they went on to Beersheba in the Negev of Judah.
8 After they had gone through the entire land, they came back to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.
9 Joab reported the number of the fighting men to the king: In Israel there were eight hundred thousand able-bodied men who could handle a sword, and in Judah five hundred thousand.
10 David was conscience-stricken after he had counted the fighting men, and he said to the Lord, “I have sinned greatly in what I have done. Now, Lord, I beg you, take away the guilt of your servant. I have done a very foolish thing.”
11 Before David got up the next morning, the word of the Lord had come to Gad the prophet, David’s seer: 12 “Go and tell David, ‘This is what the Lord says: I am giving you three options. Choose one of them for me to carry out against you.’”
13 So Gad went to David and said to him, “Shall there come on you three years of famine in your land? Or three months of fleeing from your enemies while they pursue you? Or three days of plague in your land? Now then, think it over and decide how I should answer the one who sent me.”
14 David said to Gad, “I am in deep distress. Let us fall into the hands of the Lord, for his mercy is great; but do not let me fall into human hands.”
15 So the Lord sent a plague on Israel from that morning until the end of the time designated, and seventy thousand of the people from Dan to Beersheba died. 16 When the angel stretched out his hand to destroy Jerusalem, the Lord relented concerning the disaster and said to the angel who was afflicting the people, “Enough! Withdraw your hand.” The angel of the Lord was then at the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.
17 When David saw the angel who was striking down the people, he said to the Lord, “I have sinned; I, the shepherd,[c] have done wrong. These are but sheep. What have they done? Let your hand fall on me and my family.”
In 1979 we got a colour TV in addition to the black and white TV. I remember that we got that TV set in 1979, but I don't remember what happened to it afterwards. The body was wood brown and it had push buttons instead of the usual VHF and UHF dials. It's not exactly the same, but it was kind of simar to the TV in the first picture.
We later got an Orion colour TV. It was silver and had UHF and VHF dials. It kind of looks like the TV in the second picture, but it's not exactly the same.
In 1985 my dad went to Japan and came back with a futuristic TV set. I had never seen anything like it. It was my favourite. It was a Panasonic. It was completely different from the other TV sets in the house. This TV set had numerous buttons, could get 100 channels and had 25 spaces to store channels. No other TV set in the house had that. It also had a cordless remote control! It kind of looks like the TV in the third pucture, but it was slightly different. Ours had a panel with a door that easily blended into the rest of the TV. The many buttons were behind the door.
There was a time that we damaged all the TVs around a week or two before Christmas. My dad was very happy. At last there would be peace. He refused to repair the TVs. There was no TV on Christmas Day. We had to wait for my dad to go to sleep, then we would put on the old black and white TV (which had volume problems) and then someone would sit close to the TV (to hear what was being said) and that person would tell everyone else what was happening on Another Life or whatever series we didn't want to miss.
My dad eventually fixed the TVs before New Year's Day.
Ojady: @Op: you cannot be less than 45 years of age. This is because all these were typical of a middle class home circa 1969 to 1994. If your living room was like this or had any of these, your family was not poor. If we press further, you'd probably say your folks had either a Peugeot, a Datsun, a Passat/Santana, Volkswagen Beetle, Benz 200 etc; that one if not both folks was employed and the other had a grocery shop; that you either went to FGC, Command or Missionary School etc Oh! how things have changed!!!
CJStarz: D guy dey hit you with valid points you dey here dey type nonsense. Why the first seat dey neat,black and has a head rest while the second seat is grey and dirty looking without headrest?
