Romans 8:10 Since Christ is in you, your Spirit is alive because of righteousness which Christ accomplished, remember the body was dead because of Adam inherited sin.

Does he even understood that poverty is worse than death? When you are dead you are totally free from human bondages, as long as you are alive to Tinubu regime, and suffering and hearing clones making political statements, you will realise you got a long way to go . Tinubu will live to regret every hardship he has inflicted on innocent people because of his personal greed for wealth and power. All he thinks about is politics and power . He doesn't care about ordinary people, he wants slaves and foot soldiers to fight for his longevity. He will wait in vain.

Politics › How The Elite Captured Nigeria by h777(op): 6:35pm On Jul 08
How the Elite Captured Nigeria

Nigeria is one of the richest nations in Africa in terms of natural and human resources, yet millions of its citizens continue to struggle with poverty, unemployment, inadequate infrastructure, and insecurity. Many observers describe this contradiction as the result of elite capture: a situation in which a relatively small group of politically and economically powerful individuals exercise disproportionate influence over the country's institutions and resources for their own benefit.

The roots of this phenomenon stretch back to the colonial era, when governance was highly centralized and authority was concentrated in the hands of a few. Following independence in 1960, many of these centralized structures remained. Instead of being fundamentally transformed, they often became instruments through which political influence and access to public resources were maintained.

The years of military rule further strengthened centralized power. Decision making became concentrated within a narrow circle, while democratic institutions weakened. Networks of patronage expanded, and loyalty to individuals frequently became more valuable than loyalty to institutions. These patterns did not disappear with the return to democratic governance; in many respects, they adapted to the new political environment.

The discovery and commercialization of crude oil dramatically reshaped Nigeria's political economy. Oil revenues became the primary source of government income, making control of the state one of the fastest routes to immense wealth and influence. Political competition increasingly revolved around access to public resources rather than the development of productive industries. This dependence on oil also reduced incentives to diversify the economy and strengthen other sectors.

Political patronage became deeply embedded in governance. Appointments, contracts, and public spending were often used to reward political allies and maintain support networks. In such an environment, merit, transparency, and efficiency could become secondary to political loyalty.

Weak institutions also contributed to elite capture. Where oversight agencies, procurement systems, law enforcement, and accountability mechanisms lack sufficient independence or capacity, opportunities for corruption and abuse of power increase. Public institutions can become vulnerable to manipulation by individuals or groups with significant political or financial influence.

Election financing has further reinforced these dynamics. Campaigns require substantial financial resources, often provided by wealthy sponsors or political financiers. After elections, these sponsors may expect appointments, contracts, or policy decisions that advance their interests, creating incentives that may conflict with the broader public good.

The consequences of elite capture extend far beyond politics. They affect healthcare, education, infrastructure, electricity, job creation, security, and economic growth. Public resources that could improve the lives of millions may instead be diverted, mismanaged, or allocated inefficiently. As a result, many citizens experience declining trust in public institutions and increasing frustration with governance.

Despite these challenges, Nigeria is not defined solely by elite influence. Across the country, many public servants, entrepreneurs, journalists, civil society organizations, judges, and ordinary citizens continue to advocate for transparency, accountability, and reform. Democratic participation, independent institutions, responsible leadership, and an informed electorate remain essential to reducing the influence of elite capture over time.

Ultimately, Nigeria's future depends not on the interests of a privileged few, but on the strength of its institutions, the rule of law, and the active participation of its citizens. Sustainable national development requires governance that serves the common good, protects public resources, and ensures that opportunity is available to all Nigerians rather than concentrated in the hands of a small and powerful minority.

We are not moved by political statements. The people will decide in 2027, not political declarations. Leadership is measured by results, and democracy gives every Nigerian the right to make that judgment at the ballot box. We remain committed to issue based politics, accountability, and a better Nigeria. The movement continues.
Christianity Etc › Focus Only On The Positives. Learn From The Negatives. by h777(op): 2:55pm On Jun 30
Focus Only on the Positives. Learn from the Negatives.

Life presents both victories and challenges, joyful moments and difficult seasons. Wisdom is knowing where to fix your attention. Focus on the positives because they strengthen your faith, build your confidence, renew your hope, and remind you of what GOD ALMIGHTIEST has already done. Gratitude keeps your heart steady and your mind clear.

Negatives should never become your dwelling place. They are not there to define you. They are there to teach you. Every mistake contains a lesson. Every setback reveals an opportunity to grow. Every disappointment can sharpen your character, deepen your understanding, and prepare you for greater responsibility.

Do not carry yesterday's failures into today's opportunities. Learn the lesson, make the necessary adjustments, and keep moving forward. Refuse to allow fear, regret, bitterness, or discouragement to occupy the place that faith, joy, and peace belong.

The scripture says, "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report, if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." Philippians 4:8.

Keep your eyes on what is true, noble, and life giving. Celebrate every evidence of progress, no matter how small. Learn from every negative experience without allowing it to become your identity. Let every lesson make you wiser, every challenge make you stronger, and every step bring you closer to the purpose GOD ALMIGHTIEST has prepared for you.

Focus on the positives. Learn from the negatives. Grow through everything.

Christianity Etc › The Best Scriptures Every Believer Should Know by h777(op): 9:16am On Jun 28
The Best Scriptures Every Believer Should Know

The scripture is the living Word of GOD ALMIGHTIEST. It gives life, wisdom, strength, hope, and the promise of everlasting life through JESUS CHRIST. Here are some of the most powerful scriptures that every believer should know and treasure.

1. GOD'S Love for the World

John 3:16

"For GOD so loved the world, that HE gave HIS only begotten SON, that whosoever believeth in HIM should not perish, but have everlasting life."

This is the foundation of the gospel. GOD ALMIGHTIEST demonstrated HIS love by giving JESUS CHRIST so that everyone who believes in HIM receives everlasting life.

2. Faith

Hebrews 11:1

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

Faith trusts GOD ALMIGHTIEST even before the promise becomes visible.

3. Strength in Difficult Times

Isaiah 41:10

"Fear thou not, for I am with thee: be not dismayed, for I am thy GOD: I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee, yea, I will uphold thee with the right HAND of MY righteousness."

THE LORD strengthens, helps, and upholds everyone who trusts in HIM.

4. Peace

Philippians 4:6 and 7

"Be careful for nothing, but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto GOD. And the peace of GOD, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through CHRIST JESUS."

Prayer replaces anxiety with the peace of GOD ALMIGHTIEST.

5. Courage

Joshua 1:9

"Be strong and of a good courage, be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for THE LORD thy GOD is with thee whithersoever thou goest."

No matter where life leads, THE LORD remains with HIS people.

6. Wisdom

James 1:5

"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of GOD, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him."

GOD ALMIGHTIEST generously gives wisdom to those who ask.

7. Hope

Jeremiah 29:11

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith THE LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."

THE LORD'S plans are filled with hope and purpose.

8. Victory

Romans 8:37

"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through HIM that loved us."

Believers overcome through the love and power of CHRIST.

9. The Word in Your Mouth

Romans 10:8

"The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach."

The Word of GOD ALMIGHTIEST is not distant. It is in your heart and in your mouth. Speak the Word with faith, confess JESUS CHRIST, and hold firmly to HIS promises.

10. Everlasting Life

John 11:25 and 26

"JESUS said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in ME, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in ME shall never die."

This is the hope of every believer. JESUS CHRIST is the resurrection and the life. Everyone who believes in HIM has the promise of everlasting life.

The scripture is not merely a collection of words. It is living, powerful, and able to transform every heart that believes. Read it daily, believe it wholeheartedly, speak it confidently, and obey it faithfully. Through the Word of GOD ALMIGHTIEST, you receive wisdom, strength, peace, victory, and the assurance of everlasting life in JESUS CHRIST.
Christianity Etc › When Times Are Hard Do This by h777(op): 8:58am On Jun 28
WHEN TIMES ARE HARD, DO THIS

When times are hard, do not lose hope. Turn your eyes to GOD ALMIGHTIEST, for HE is your refuge and strength.

Pray without ceasing.
"The scripture says, 'Pray without ceasing.'" 1 Thessalonians 5:17

Trust GOD ALMIGHTIEST with all your heart.
"The scripture says, 'Trust in THE LORD with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding.'" Proverbs 3:5

Do not fear.
"The scripture says, 'Fear thou not, for I am with thee, be not dismayed, for I am thy GOD. I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee, yea, I will uphold thee with the right HAND OF GOD.'" Isaiah 41:10

Keep speaking the Word.
"The scripture says, 'So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of GOD.'" Romans 10:17

Remember those who trusted GOD ALMIGHTIEST and were delivered.

Joseph was sold into slavery, falsely accused, and imprisoned, yet GOD ALMIGHTIEST raised him to become ruler in Egypt.

Job lost his wealth, his children, and his health, yet GOD ALMIGHTIEST restored him with greater blessings than before.

David faced Goliath with faith, not fear, and GOD ALMIGHTIEST gave him victory.

Daniel was thrown into the lions' den, but GOD ALMIGHTIEST shut the lions' mouths.

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were cast into the fiery furnace, yet THE LORD was with them, and not even the smell of fire remained on them.

Paul and Silas prayed and sang praises in prison, and GOD ALMIGHTIEST sent an earthquake that opened every prison door.

Above all, remember JESUS CHRIST. HE suffered, was crucified, died, and rose again in victory. Because HE lives, there is hope beyond every trial.

"The scripture says, 'We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed, we are perplexed, but not in despair, persecuted, but not forsaken, cast down, but not destroyed.'" 2 Corinthians 4:8 and 9

Hold fast to your faith. Your present season is not your final destination. GOD ALMIGHTIEST is faithful, HIS promises never fail, and those who trust in HIM shall never be put to shame.
Politics › Re: Agency Gbajabiamila Claimed Does Not Exist Were Allocated ₦1.3b In 2026 Budget by h777(f): 11:06am On Jun 27
A ghost agency with a ₦1.3 billion budget?

The Chief of Staff says the agency does not exist. Yet the 2026 Appropriation Act reportedly allocates it ₦1.3 billion.

So who approved the money? Who signed off on it? Who planned to spend it?

This is bigger than a contradiction. It is a test of the government's credibility. Nigerians deserve answers, not denials. If this is a ghost agency, then someone tried to make billions disappear in broad daylight.

This is exactly why Nigerians are losing confidence in this government. How can an agency officially declared "nonexistent" by the Chief of Staff receive ₦1.3 billion in the national budget? Either someone inserted a ghost agency into the budget, or the Presidency is not telling Nigerians the truth. Both possibilities are deeply disturbing. Nigerians deserve answers, not contradictions.
