There's a difference between slave trade and colonialism, these are 2 distant eras. The queen never enslaved any Africans, before everybody becomes an online activist, try to get proper knowledge.

Perhaps Mary Slessor too shouldn't have stopped the killing of twins in Nigeria because African societies were "perfect"

Colonialism was what ushered Africa into the present stage of enlightenment and development. What would we achieve without Christianity and education?

Just like the Uju woman insulting people up and down on Twitter, most of you love to deceive yourselves.

You are enlightened and I appreciate it.
Truth is a bitter pill.
They often speak against the colonial Masters as if those ones didn't leave them better than they met them.
Colonial Masters too had plans and their excesses, but they are not the problem of Nigeria.
Since how many years now that they still blame them for woes, corruption, tribalism, backwardness and so on prevailing in the country.
It is true that one is not a failure until one blames others for his problems.
What is wrong with Nigerians?

The dead are mourning the dead.
Life is turn by turn.


English empire really reigned while holding sway. While the Queen would visit any foreign country, the country would still speak English to the Queen, supposedly. And when foreigners would also pay her visits, English would as well be the language of expression.

Oh my!
May you not fall into it o.
The deceit and pranks that thing plays on the mind is "never enough".
It doesn't matter if you marry Miss World.
It warps the mind and twist the psyche.

What's now the relationship between 'sloth' and 'slotful'. I thought a sloth is a very small, slow and sluggish animal and it's always hibernating.

Sloth is the animal, with this slow, sluggish and lethargic attributes.

Slothful is the adjective derived from the animal used to describe something(someone) based on the features and characters of the same animal. Slothful means lazy. Slothfully means lazily.

It is for good.
So that you guys can scramble for what is not enough

Wrong

The word "lepa" is a yoruba word/slang meaning "stick together" to be like one . It's used to describe slim girls cos they are so flat n thin like "1"

I am too sure you are the one who is wrong.

If you indeed know the language you mentioned, you would know that 'lepa' is a modern day word/slogan, not an old indigenous word. About mid 90s, this word wasn't even known or used, not even for slim person. Go figure.
Opposite of 'lepa' is 'Orobo', do you also know the song/singer who also brought about orobo mainstream usage and adoption to describe someone on the fatty side?
It's true that new words are being coined and added on the daily to lingo and local dialect, but also note that some have been around longer to know the origin and difference in the adapted and original root word.

Wow...
Nostalgia.
This song birthed so many other things, including many Gospel songs adaptation with the beats also.

Worthy of note.
The word 'lepa' used for slim person(lady/girl) came from this song.

What is wrong with African leaders?
This Museveni has been President for so long, yet still there.
Paul Biya's people

Criminal of a President.

Why not do it when you are still there?
No gut. No knowledge, no empathy.

The same person who said there was nothing like subsidy.
He was more interested in becoming a figurehead president than one to be proud of.

Hmmm

Even if it's true, and you did it.
What will happen to you guys?

wman:
I respect this man of God. But these days, he does too much of criticism.

That was how he was criticizing Pastor Jerry Eze and NSPPD too.

He has criticized so many others.
To me, it is not a sign of maturity.
No single minister is given the whip or ministry of criticism to police the rest of the ministers.
There is correction that's done in love, and it is not for pulpit entertainment because you have audience that believes in all you throw out at them.
Becoming the Chief Whip of all the rest is like assuming you yourself are the standard they must measure up to.
He who stands should take heed.

Kobojunkie:
Not trying to hold brief for the man but even that which you command there is not commanded of you by Jesus Christ, the one you are instead called to follow.

If ONLY what Jesus said is what we would actually do, most of what we are doing today then are wrong.
Jesus stayed for a limited time here in person, but Scriptures are given by the Holy Spirit through holy men to say further what Jesus could have said or told His followers if He were to still be physically present.

Concerning the Psalms you referred to as being not commanded by Jesus or not being in the New Testament, do you realize that Psalms was part of the whole Scriptures (Bible) given by inspirations of the Spirit? So clapping as said in that place quoted couldn't have been an error. Except Isaiah, no other Book of the Bible has prophecies for Jesus' life, death and resurrection like the Psalms. How come clapping to praise God in the Book of Psalm is irrelevant in the New Testament?
If Psalm isn't relevant in the New Testament, why does the book of James say that if anyone is merry, let him sing Psalms. Ephesians also mentions speaking to one another in Psalms.
So why is Psalms not relevant in the New Testament when it is quoted and referenced in many places?

If the Preacher wants to be "thorough" , he should have condemned dancing also. Is there any place in the New Testament that Bible says that people should dance to or before God? He ought to have condemned dancing as well.

Anyone may decide to worship God the way he feels all good including not clapping if he so wishes, but making a doctrine out of it like he's saying it in this video is all wrong in itself.

lonelydora:
Kai! The love is massive for Peter Obi.

It's funny how some people still think the Peter Obi movement is still a social media thing. OBI-dients are showing pictures of physical gathering, and you are still doubting?

Abeg, Peter Obi and Datti should just come to Aso Rock by May next year and resume work. We don't have to stress them again

Don't mind them.
In their secret meetings, they know that Obi is a contender. Sleepless night for them is possible because of it. But they will come to the open to say no structure, false statistics and all that.

Who is not tired of this backwardness?

Sleekfingers:
Olaiya don use style call Malu ( cow) brother......
What a show of shame.....coming from someone like olaiya.....there are better ways to appreciate such kindness.

Exactly my thought.
Is it the age difference that we should talk about?
I don't believe Olaiya is so poor that he will be rolling like he's nobody really.
Well, who knows?

APC... Chain!

Sincerely this is the savagery of the month.
It is brutal upper cut

Good request.

When will FG stop bandits from transacting?

Figure head Senate President.

The worst of the worst Senate President.

We cover lies, promote falsehood and except nation to be great.
No be juju be that?
When those in power know the citizens sponsoring banditry and Boko Haram but would shield them...
We are not ready.

'Condoler' General

babaolofin:
To me what you have said is jargon. Nothing but jargon.

Firstly, Igbere TV Award is an award made by IBO organization. OPM founder stepping down for his IBO brother has nothing to do with religion.

I attended University in IBO land where I spent 6 years several years ago, I can say it anywhere, if Jesus comes as a Yoruba man, the IBOS will never vote for him. If angel becomes a Yoruba man, the IBOS will never vote for him. It is only the Yorubas that carry Religious issues as pure spiritual matter because of our liberal thinking, it is not like that in IBO land.

A Yoruba Church will never allow INEC officials sent to an area for CVR exercise to be secretly redirected inside a Church for PVC registration exercise. The 3 INEC officials if they are all Yorubas can never agree to do that. There would be disagreement between the Pastor or Priest and some members / Parishioners. If it were IBO Church and the INEC officials are all IBOS or 2 IBO and 1 South South, they would collude and send INEC materials to IBO Church. That is not Christianity.

There is nothing like Muslim Muslim in OPM founder stepping down for OBi, it is purely brotherhood based on IBO ideology.

You missed the road, boy.
What you're saying here is off what I said.

I don't need to validate you but let me educate you a little.
Apostle Chinyere mentioned that Obi has his vote (election-wise) in what he said. That's why he called him Moses, but your blocked mind still thought it was only about conceding award to him.
I quoted a fellow who said something along that line also based on how about 3 men could influence Christian folks on who they vote in PH.

Next time you want to spell Igbo, do it right, it is not Ibo, at least you said you passed through school a little.

Lastly, you opined that Igbo folks can't vote a Yoruba. You must have been in the cave to have missed it few days ago when Zack Orji was declaring for Tinubu and saying why Tinubu should be voted.
I guess Zack Orji is a native of Ikorodu to you right?

Don't quote me next time if you can connect dots in argument. Whoever you vote is your personal thing. But don't run headlong displaying your folly in the name of defending indefensible.

Do you serve failure notice, when you know failure must keep failing?

Akurakambe:
If this man and that Salvation Ministry man support Peter Obi candidacy, then Obi is likely going to defeat both PDP and APC in Rivers State even without any strong politician being on Obi side.
Whether we like it or not, religion will play a very critical role in this coming election.

May Peter Obi succeed

Of course, do you think Pastor Ibiyeomie will support Muslim Muslim candidate?
Winners (going by Bishop Abioye's message) is supporting him, Dr. Enenche is supporting Obi, Salvation Ministry can't be left out. And so many to join.

Mr Tinubu carried ant-infested woods, lizards have to come calling.
In a country already polarized by religion, bedevilled by lacklustre performance of the ruling party, you now wanted to call bluff further by choosing someone (not just a Muslim) whose allegiance to Boko Haram is traceable... That's a lowest low.
Tinubu ought to be courting favours, not calling bluff, and be lying that no other better performing person can come from other faith.

All lies and no truth.
We all saw how they were falling over Wike to woo him, yet they say no other Christian is good to be used for VP.

Totilopussylick:
He is indirectly referring to Tinubu

Of course.
You won't see him since saying anything about election or his party.
He knew what's wrong, but what's right remains personal to him.

Mina79:
Too late, will that return the people who died due to insecurity?
Will that change the price of hiked foodstuffs in the market?
Will that reduce the price of fuel?
Will that reduce the suffering of the masses?
They are all Buharis accomplis as far as I am concern.
Posterity will judge them all.

Never too late.
Do you know how many might still die?
Those terrorists are ready to take over goverment because they know goverment is too weak and protecting them with its body language.
Handing over is still like 10 months away... You know what can happen in the next 2,3 months?

God save and protect us all �

So unfortunate so many had to die just because their goverment decided to be clowns

izubext007:
Is too late ��� just alow him to finish his tenure.

Not really.

You never can tell the next stage of assault coming. This evil sweeping the country is a well coordinated one.
A month will be too long to finally turn the country upside down if that's what the terrorists are bent on doing that. Thru have infiltrated places untold.

I see it like Buhari knows what he is doing. He just occupies that seat and pretend like he is doing something while he looks left, the terrorists and bandits are doing their stuff on the right side.
Too bad, they said he was a General.
If it is other tribe who is doing what Buhari is doing, the North would have done the unthinkable. Ask Jonathan (Jonathan was never a saint too) but in this country, there is more than double standard at play.
Why still saving a President from impeachment who can't save the lives of those he swore by the Constitutions to protect?

Leaving him to continue, you never can tell how many lives will still be gone. That's exactly what the senator is saying.

But where are the folks who used to defend Buhari with their lives and all on this platform?

I thought they said she was truly born again.

Someone to has missed it. May you be found.
As an evangelist, the Bible you are carrying endorses it that a betrothed should have intercourse with her lover??
You need redemption ASAP madam Eucharia.

Hmmm
You are burning in passion, I see that's why this kind of statement is coming from you. You as well said that you need a younger man in a matter of few months ago for partner.
Your body has taken over ma. Sorry I understand, but don't twist the Bible to justify your untamed libido.

If Mary who was engaged to Joseph was having intercourse immediately after engagement to him, how would be sure that Jesus actually came by the Holy Spirit and not through Joseph?

This man is over 70.
What do we gain in lying about everything?

Analysts have come
