Barrister wait till end of 2021 before making such assumptions. He talked like someone who doesnt understand the Nigerian masses and the politics involved. They are making all these unavoidable decisions now because they know before the politicking of 2022 to 2023 the noise will be over and possibly the joy of 2and Niger bridge, the Lagos Ibadan and ibadan Kano rail will change their mind.
I have heard many times people say "Nobody knows my story, they only sees the glory". I believed everyone has a story and nobody should intimidate anyone with their stories. My friend it's just the Grace of God that has made every soul.
1. Some persons struggled more than you yet nothing to show for it for now. 2. Some persons sabi ball pass Okocha or Kanu but nobody knew them. 3. I passed through a lot in life before I got to where I am but I tell you it's just the grace of God, many died at the helm of their breakthrough. 4. Dont let anyone intimidate you with that statement again if they fail to acknowledge that it was the grace of God. 5. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. 1Cor 15:10
I don't know if others experience this too or I'm alone on this one, most times when I sleep and dream, I wake in the morning without remembering the very important events or details of the dream.
But today, I had a dream where I was gathering snails and I woke up this morning remembering every detail of it plus feeling a little bit frightened and disturbed. I do not know what it means to be picking snails in the dream and why I woke up feeling disturbed hence the reason why I will like anyone with a proper interpretation of what it means to tell me because I think I need help here to decode this dream. (Mods to Fp please) thanks to everyone.
As a child of God you have authority and power to create and cancel any dream. Jesus said in Luke 10:19 that you have the authority...
You have the power to give a meaning to your dream. You dream of yourself picking snails? You know how expensive snails are in the market, only those with deep pockets buys them. Snails is nutritious too.
Listen to the meaning of your dream, God is about to bless you to the level that you no longer eat anyhow delicacies.
Its left for you to accept mine or the negative minded people who do not know who they are in Christ.
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 1John 4:4
Devise your strategy, but it will be thwarted; propose your plan, but it will not stand, for God is with us. Isaiah 8:10
Dalby: I agree with you but for number 4. A woman that will cheat on you will cheat on you whether you are there or not. It is impossible to be with her 24/7 likewise the reverse...
...she saw that it was good to the eyes, good for food and one to give knowledge and she did eat...Actions are the end product of how we internalize information received. Consequently 2 persons can receive the same information / external stimulus, one will cheat and one will not...
I agree with you, no excuse is enough for infidelity, but ibadan is not too far to Lagos the guy should increase going home to twice a month if not for his wife for the children.
owo8184: I am a young married man with 2 kids. The marriage is 6yrs now. Due to the situation of the country, we’ve not been staying together. I hustle in a University environment in one of the states in Southwest while she works as a freelance for some organizations in Lagos.
I normally come home (Lagos) on monthly basis. But during this lockdown, I have been in Lagos with my family.
Prior to our marriage, there is this guy she met when we had some misunderstanding. They started a date but later called it off when we settled. She didn’t give me the details but based on what I read on her phone back then, I knew they made out together. The said guy is now in Port Harcourt but I am aware he normally comes to Lagos.
Just today, I heard my wife giving someone a description of where they will meet somewhere in Agege (where she uses as her office). I was curious to know the person. I didn’t ask her because she would find a story to cover up. I found a way to check her phone and saw that her ex - the said guy was the one who called. May I say that we have fought over this guy several times even before and after our marriage. She won’t let this guy be in her past. She’s either calling the guy or the guy is calling her. This time, I chose not to raise my voice but monitor her closely. She left home for work today. I may not be able to give details but every surrounding clue indicates that my wife has a date today. She returned home and I found a way to check her whatsapp but alas she has deleted her chats with the guy.
Just this night again, she received a call from another man asking her when she would come to his office. She once told me that the man was asking her out. In all these, I want to believe my wife is up to something. Infidelity is the last I would accept in this marriage.
Should I confront her with all these observations? Please, I am confused.
Assumption is the lowest level of knowledge; 1 Get online and search how to read your spouse WhatsApp messages or look for a tech person. 2. Trail her or have someone you trust do that for you. 3. Before you begin be sure you want to know the truth and if the truth hurts are you prepared for divorce... 4. Stop going home on monthly basis, Ibadan is not far to lagos, it was because Adam left Eve that gave room for devil.
SoccerUSA: As seen in the topic, I have two friends that travelled to the U.S, One travelled 2014 and the other one 2017, though before they left we had a good vibes we were both close if not best friends before they left.
The one of 2014 stopped texting me at 2018 or so even when I wished him birthday wishes and same with the other. I knew this because I only texted them on Facebook and you will know when they read and not reply.
I don't hold any grudges against them though Did you guys think it's normal? Like if I leave Nigeria, Would I also ignore my friends text even if they do not request anything from me?
Please can someone just explain to me so I won't see my friends (maybe former friends) as bad ones.
It's not about who you called friends it's about who called you their friends. Some looks at you as colleagues or co hustlers. Your real friends will NOT leave you.
[quote author=Hemanwel post=93561262]Hello, good people of Nairaland!
I just finished an interview in a school for a teaching position. Was asked to prepare a Lesson Plan on Respiratory System for SS1 class.
Because I have never taught in a school before, I became dumbfounded. I didn't know how to go about it.
Please, teachers in the house, how would I have answered the question? I want to know so I can learn from my mistake.
PS: Although, I do private teaching; I have never taught in a formal school setting before.[/quote]
Next time dont be dumbfounded even if you dont know the answer, your answer should have been, I do private teaching.... They know you were not a trained teacher so dont worry they will call you back.
The lady no supposed wear white na, something like red, black or yellow would have been better. Next person should take note, we will like to see black wedding g gown. At least these ones break record. Meet Mr and Mrs.... the first native doctor to wed at the registry in his native doctor regalia.

ojikeebere12: Oba of Benin reprimands Governor Obaseki for refusing all overtures for peace with comrade Adams Oshiomole, thereby allowing the Edo political crisis to degenerate further.
I wished all our traditional rulers can be bold like this and speak to anybody but money and appointments has made it impossible for a lot of them. If Obaseki loose this election I will not be shocked like PMB.
Kiddo01: I've been thinking about this and so I decided to bring it here.
A friend of mine has been having issues with his wife for some time now. He said that the Parish Priest has advised both of them but without positive result.
But I keep wondering, is it that both parties do not want to settle their differences or is the reverend father actually giving the needed council? Is the reverend father who has not married before qualified to give advice on marital crisis? What do you think
Is it all married persons that are qualified to give good advice on marital issues? The truth is a Rev Father that spent almost 10 years in Seminary is qualified to give advice on marital issues. I have seen singles advised married men and women correctly. Wisdom can be acquired in various form and marriage is dynamic, you cant use what works in your marriage as a principle. The basic principle in the scriptures that makes a better and peaceful home is in Ephesians 5:24-25
"Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her..."
You will agree with me that if a woman submits in love to her husband and the husband love the wife whether she submits or not there will be little or no problem.
TundeKorede: A lot of believers are oblivious to the benefits embedded in sharing testimonies in Church. Although, testimonies are not to be shared in Church alone, they can be shared at home too.
In this article, we shall examine the biblical reasons for sharing testimonies. My belief is that you will join the league of testifiers in Church after reading this blogpost.
Five Reasons Why You Need To Share Your Testimonies In Church (1) To Strengthen The Faith Of Others
David shared the testimony of how he killed a lion and a bear with King Saul. After sharing the story, Saul’s faith in the God David served was strengthened.
1 Samuel 17:36-37 [36]Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God.
[37]David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the LION, and out of the PAW OF THE BEAR he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee. If David didn’t share that testimony with Saul. He would not have allowed him to go and fight the Philistine. Saul knew that if a man could overcome a lion, the king of the jungle. He should be able to overcome any warrior in life.
When we share our testimonies in Church, we strengthen our faith and the faith of others. If you share the testimony of how you labored and gave birth afterwards. There are some pregnant women whose faith will be strengthened.
In other words, we boost the faith of others when we share testimonies in Church. Testimony makes people to foresee possibilities and eradicate every form of impossibilities.
(2) Jesus Expects You To Share Your Testimony Ten lepers were healed by Jesus and only one out of them came to Jesus to share his testimony. And Jesus responded saying;
Luke 17:16-17 [16]And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. [17]And Jesus answering said, WERE THERE NOT TEN CLEANSED? BUT WHERE ARE THE NINE?
This statement explains the fact that Jesus expected all the ten healed lepers to share their testimonies. But it was only one person who came back to give thanks.
Till today, Jesus expects us to go to where we have been healed and share our testimony. He expects us to give the testimony of how he saved us. He expects us to share the testimony of how he blessed and protected us.
Do not be an ungrateful believer. When we share testimony, it shows our hearts of gratitude. It enables the Lord to know that we appreciate Him for what He has done. It is not enough to tell you friends. Go to the person God used for you and share your testimony.
After Jesus healed the madman of Gadarenes. He told him to go and testify to his people at home;
Mark 5:19 [19]Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
Be a testifier! Don’t be an ingrate!
How To Know You Are In a Wrong Relationship
(3) To Bring Many People To Christ It was the testimony of Jesus that the Samaritan woman shared with her friends that made many to believe Christ.
John 4:39 [39]And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, WHICH TESTIFIED, He told me all that ever I did.
The woman was not an ingrate. She didn’t hide under the canopy of being a shy type of a woman. She went around and publicise the ministry of Christ. Her testimony was enough for many Samaritans to believe in Jesus.
Therefore, testimonies bring people to Christ. There are people who will never be captivated by exegesis of the Scriptures. But there are people who will be captivated by true life stories of how Christ librates men. These men need our testimony!
Never hesitate to share the testimony that will bring many to Christ. Your testimony of healing can make an unbeliever to accept Christ.
(4) It’s The Secret Of Victors Revelation 12:11 [11]And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and BY THE WORD OF THEIR TESTIMONY; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
Victorious believers will always have testimonies to share. When David overcame Lion and a bear, he had a testimony to share. Those who want to ensure consistent dominion over the works of the devil must be consistent testifiers.
The more you share your testimonies, the more God blesses you. The more you appreciate Him before many people. The more He will continue to give you songs of praise and reasons to share testimonies.
To be a victor, you must be a consistent testifier.
Biblical Reasons Why You Should Celebrate Your Birthday
(5) To Make God’s Grace Known To People 1 Corinthians 15:9-10
[9]For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. [10]But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. Paul, the apostle, shared his testimony of how God located him through grace. He maintained that everything he achieved was by the grace of God.
Testimony validates the grace of God upon our lives. We are not ascribing glory to ourselves but to God. When glory is given to God, He blesses us and sees our humility.
Paul was humble enough to ascribe his success to God’s grace. This is exactly what we do, when we share our testimonies.
Warning!!! • No man of God is to be exalted while sharing testimony. Testimony should be shared in order to return glory to God and strengthen the faith of others.
• We don’t share testimonies to showoff but to recognize God’s grace.
• Believers should desist from sharing fabricated stories in order to stir the faith of men. Be plain and be truthful whenever you share your testimony In Church.
• It is not really polite to share a testimony of a work that is not complete. For example, there is no point sharing a testimony that you have gotten pregnant when you have not given birth. If you want to do that, do it wisely.
Thank you so much for reading. Please, leave a comment after reading.
Also, today is Tunde Korede's birthday, a young Nigerian Christian Blogger. You can take time to encourage me in the comment section below. Thanks!
More so it's not all testimonies you share, some have been aborted because the testifier did not wait to share at the right time or ask the Holy Spirit.
Some testimonies are meant to be shared just only with your pastor or written anonymous.
This will make sense I tell you, all they needed to do is to form a central one whereby all Geo zones Presidents forms another whatever, I am sure the politics involved in giving SAN will also change, i hate all those associations making lives of people miserable especially all those artisans associations.
According to Nigerian Tweeps, the serial presidential aspirant who is considered vocal and known to air his concerns on policies and issues plaguing the nation has been quiet ever since the news broke that Yahaya Sharif-Aminu, the young man fingered for blasphemy, has been denied access to lawyers even as the 30-day deadline given to him to appeal the judgment lapses on September 9.
Atiku who took to Twitter to celebrate Arsenal's win against Liverpool has since been dragged for being insensitive, a religious fanatic like and political. The likes of Peter Obi and other presidential aspirants are currently being dragged alongside.
I hope Nigerians will know before it's too late that all our politicians are scammers some are just scammers with a heart but all na scammers.

Made4naijalove: Popular Nigerian crossdresser, Idris Olanrewaju Okuneye popularly known as Bobrisky has announced the arrival of his new Mercedes-Benz.
The crossdresser who is turning a new age on August 31, while sharing the video of his Benz on IG, said he decided to spoil himself ahead of his birthday.
Earlier today, he shared photos of himself rocking a lovely traditional attire and looking good.
Some moments ago, he surprised fans with a video of his new Benz. He said he is a “big girl” and he doesn’t talk too much as his action speaks louder than words. He also shared a video where he unveiled the car.
Truthlord12: Good evening people please I need your advice regards to this, I got separated from my ex girlfriend last year because she told me her travel plans abroad I was a bit sceptic About the nature of job she’ll do there, she’s the type that’s ready and willing to do anything to help her family.
After everything I told her not to embark on the journey that she should be patient with me, once my business picked up I’ll care for her and her family, she refused and traveled last year, few months before she left she gave me some money to add to my business I wouldn’t want to state the actual amount but a bit huge. Of recent her family really suffering because my ex had issue with the person that took her abroad so she’s passing through difficult time though she’s hiding some info from me since she’s not able to make money, she called me of recent that I should please do anything to help her family.
Now I’ve got a new girlfriend I told my new girlfriend about the issue but she said I shouldn’t give my ex family any money, because we ain’t together anymore that if I do she’ll leave me
Please people help me what should I do? My mind is really disturbing me and I still love my ex I wish I’ve a way to bring her back to Nigeria so we can start a family I don’t care the type of job she went there to do and I don’t mind what she has been through. She did so much for me, she made sacrifice that this my new girl won’t do, I don’t even know if my new girlfriend loves me or because of my money.
Though I love my new girlfriend but part of me is with my ex I don’t know if she’ll will be willing to return though I’ve not discussed it with her. And now my new girlfriend threatening to leave me if I assist or give back the money my ex gave me as support for my business before she travelled to her family I’ve been down for days thinking so much.
1. Put relationship aside, you are bound to help her family since she gave you huge money before travelling. 2. Let the new one go if she want to go, infacts you need to clear your mind about her before you go ahead in another relationship unless your marriage go suffer o. 3. Talk things out with her if she's willing to come back to start afresh.
I dont have a problem with the girl, perhaps she was dodging a bullet, den no dey shame chop winch. However, this is an implications of raising a boy instead of raising a man, I think you need to show this video to your son and let him understand the value of self worth, the value of marrying someone who loves him, help him or her to define relationships.
StagethemTVee: Aisha Yesuf has taken to twitter to remind El-Rufai of the need to visit parents of the Kaduna Students who were kidnapped just like he asked GEJ to do the same when Chibok girls were Kidnapped. Talking about what goes around comes around. Let's hope the able Governor will do the needful and show that his, is indeed a goverment of Change.
