Christianity Etc › Re: Pastor Chris Okafor Weds Girlfriend Amid Controversy by GreatManBee: 1:09pm On Dec 17, 2025
oz4real83:
The modern church is changing day by day, it is gradually becoming very difficult to differentiate between the church and the world. Gone are those days that many people will commit sin and be remorseful, now they defend sins, continue in sins and accuse others of judging or persecuting them, may God help us in this end time.

advanceDNA:
That type of relationship is described as one with power imbalance and seen as a conflict of interest... Most large corporations have policy against it because it always ends in messy scandal and law suits, with huge settlement when break up or termination of the subordinate eventually happens..

....because even though it just btw two adults agreeing to fvck each other, lawyers have a way of spinning the relationship btw a top executive and a non executive subordinate as nonconsensual because of the power one has that the other does not in that work place...

it has over time been psychological and legally established during law suits that the subordinate may naturally be under duress , threat either of losing her job or something else before agreeing to date the oga
Family › Re: Married But Feeling Single: I’m Losing Myself In This Quiet Marriage by GreatManBee: 3:14pm On Oct 14, 2025
breadtoaster:
For once, I think I followed spiritual preachings where they say it's better to marry someone who fears God first. Spirituality is sometimes so different from compatibility especially when reality sets and it feels like you living with a room mate.
You can take a break before you become mentally unstable and a shadow of yourself.

When I was in Nigeria, I was earning enough that could take care of my family even without my wife working.

After we moved abroad three years ago it was another ball game! While I worked, my wife had to work even in a place where she didn't like because the bills needed to be paid.

You may need to take a break to reassess your relationship! I hope he changes though and I hope all you have said is true and you're not hiding anything!

Education › Re: “Any School Fees You Struggle To Pay Is No Longer Fees But Ransom” – Woman by GreatManBee: 3:56pm On Sep 18, 2025
Idemma:
A Nigerian woman, Nenye Uzowulu, has advised parents to carefully consider the schools they send their children to, saying that school fees they struggle to pay are no longer regular tuition but “ransom.”

Nenye Uzowulu shared her thoughts on Facebook on Monday, cautioning parents against being pressured by private school owners over rising fees.

“Any school fees you struggle to pay is no longer school fees but Ransom! Take your kids to where you can afford. Same as HouseRent,” she wrote.

Explaining her reasoning, Uzowulu said she knows a woman who is constantly in debt, taking loans to pay her children’s school fees.

“I know a woman who is living in debt now. She will always collect loan to pay school fees. Like what kind of mother are you?” she added.

Why will you said ufe akanlubebe is around 1830. Which year is the birth of mose orimolade. Stop misleading people. You better go and check the list of Ooni of Ife. Haha � � mr writer Ile Ife can't be dated 1830. Was oyo exist before Ile Ife and you can't dated oyo in 1830 not to talk of Ife. Haba. Your writeup my be right but the date is wrong.

REPLY:
My great Brother, your QUERY above only portrait you as a mere historical Alarmist that's totally confused with even the real questions you are supposed to ask to gain knowledge of your existence. Can you go back to the piece to read again in other to grasp the facts therein? https://m./157218294674152/permalink/1579022925827008/

First of all, you need to remember or know that the entire Oodua Spiritual base (Ufe People) was sacked and they were sojourned to Oke Ugbomokun, now known as OKE IGBO before Ondo Town. Whereas, about 4 Oonis were buried at Oke Ugbomokun. The names of those OoniOrisa buried at Oke Ugbomokun are...
✓ Kumbusu
✓ Abeweila
✓ Ayikiti Ninu Aran (Ojaja 1) that's Forcefully installed from Ibadan.
✓ Derin Ologbe Nla

Modakeke people were incharge of the entire place called Ile-Ife today for almost a century. Whereas, any needed compulsory Rituals were not done, except on express permission from Modakeke warriors.

Don't forget that Ooni Adelekan Olubuse 1 that ruled between 1894- 1910 was the first Ooni that again ruled over this present Ile-Ife after the evacuation of Modakeke combatants initiated through series of appeals and interventions from Alaafin Alowolodu Adeyemi 1.

Before then, Ijebu warriors known as IPAYEs and OLODEs had already been neutralized by the influx of European Colonial Rogues (European Rogues were those instigated Kiriji war with yet to be reported reasons) in the early 19th Century. Historically, Onijebu from Ijebu Atiba (before destroyed) influence had its boundary at ISEYIN before the fall of Oyo Katunga, which caused influx of Several Oyo warriors downward.

The fear from the War ALARMISTS demanded for the relocation of the seat of Oyo Authority downward to Ago D'Oyo by the then Alaafin in the year 1834, Oyo Katunga Atiba was never conquered!

Prince ObaLoye Òtùkò Adimula avered that upon your challenge above, the entire area called Ile-Ife today was originally known as Ugbomokun, with Aboriginal Leader known as ELEFON (known as The God of rains), the ancestry father of all the OBALUFONs. Kindly know that 'NO' OBALUFON ruled as Ooni of Ife, but as ELEFON over Ugbomokun land.

However, the Migration Locations of Olufe-Obatala, the Spiritual Leader of Oodua Spiritual Troupe from Ufe Atelubebe to the Ugbomokun land changed the identity of the area to Ufe land and literarily known as Otu Ufe!!!?

You may wish to carefully investigate the veracity of Olufe-Obatala and Oodua Spiritual Troupe Migration Locations as tabulated below....
✓ Ufe Oodaye: Presumed to be around Nile Valley Basin Area, Which Archeologists brought out evidence of over 2 million years human activities.
✓ Ufe Ooye/ Oyelagbo: Presumed to be around Igbale Aye, which Archeologists discovered to have existed over 450,000 years old of humanism.
✓ Ufe Atapameh/Afapameh: Presumed to be the Ancient POPO Area that today Covered both lower base Benin Republic and Togo Republic.
✓ Ufe Abure: Presumed to be around Ikirun- Ofa-Ede Area
✓ Ufe Atelubebe/ Akanlubebe: Presumed to be the Esun Land, now known as Ekiti Land.
✓ Otu Ufe: Ugbomokun land crested as Ile-Ife by European Colonial Rogues.

Politics › Re: NIPOST: Nigerians To Pay $80 Duty For Every Package Sent To US by GreatManBee: 8:40am On Aug 30, 2025
WizardOfNG:
Correct because it cannot be any other way. I engage in international trade so I am up to speed with regulations affecting our trading zone which includes USA.

De menimis exemption allowed good of value under $800.00 USD to enter the USA free of duty payment. Trump has now cancelled that meaning all good entering the USA now attracts duty payment.

Though a general policy, the ruling is primarily targeting China as Trump and his policymakers feel Chinese businesses and good are gaining too much penetration into the USA.

The reasoning is that Americans will look inwards for their purchase of goods if items below $800.00 USD, unlike before, now attract considerable import duty.

You are correct that it is receiver that must pay because it is duty owed to the USA Government by those in the USA who have bought goods from overseas. Meaning the $80.00 must be paid by the receiver of the goods in USA and not sender.

All VAT, Duty, taxes etc on goods are paid for by buyer/receiver of goods and not seller/sender of goods.

franchasng:
you cannot get sales with those type of books or topics.


If you want to make sales on kdp, think like the readers.


The readers are mostly from US, Europe, UK, Asia, etc, so ask yourself what topic readers from these aforementioned countries would love to read about?


It must be something relevant and unique to those audience, if not you will struggle to make a sale.


Also blogging will help you if you start blogging about your topics and adding links of your kdp books in your blog posts to refer people back to your books. It worked for me back then.



There are many other methods to increase your sales
This is definitely a good advice, thanks

Dpsychologist:
Why do people cheat on the one person they can’t afford to lose...
with someone they would never even want to keep? 😩

Like, make it make sense!

You love them, you need them, you say they’re your world — but one small distraction comes along and boom, you fumble everything for a “situationship” that means absolutely nothing.

Emotional damage, zero gain.
Pure sabotage.

Let’s be real:
Cheating isn’t always about lack of love.
Sometimes it’s ego, immaturity, or just vibes and bad decisions.
But one thing’s for sure — you’ll almost always regret losing the real one for the random one.

If you’ve ever been through it (on either side), you know how messy and painful it can get.

So ask yourself today:
Is that 5-minute thrill worth a lifetime of guilt and regret?

🤔 Think twice.
💯 Choose love — not confusion.
🎯 Stay loyal or stay single.

Sp33i:
Follow me on this journey as I am to inspire youths to take up not just agriculture but anything productive and run with it.



First :



The first step in setting up a farm is to inspect the land, examine that it can be worked upon by a tractor because not all lands can be ploughed with a tractor because often times, lands can contain rocks, tree stumps that makes them unsuitable for tractor to operate on them.


You need to make sure of the suitability of your land. Once this is confirmed, you may go ahead and make payment. In my case, I paid 15,000 Naira per acre. My six acres cost me 90,000 Naira altogether
How much is the price to buy 1 acre in Abeokuta? I'll like to buy like 10 acres.

When I Bought My First Land, I Almost Cried.
No be say the land fine pass. Na bush. But it had my name on the paper.
I remembered all the insults.
“You never even buy phone, you dey talk land.”
The people that mocked me for being too serious.
The nights I saved 500 naira like say I dey save millions.
But I bought it. Small bush. Small hope. Big future.
If you're saving for land, or you're trying to build — don't stop.
One day you go hold your paper and smile. Or cry. But it will be worth it.
