centje: lol...o bu izi okwu ka i kwuru. I once had an aerial view of the city from a hill in amaechi,it was in the nite,jeez! See how beautiful the lights were! They were like glittering stars in the sky.

My fear is just that next goverment might not be take up this little maintenance culture we observe in sullivan's administration. Maybe then,faulty street lights or traffic lights won't be repaired. Continuity is a problem in country.

However,up till now enugu has not being able to set up a road maintenance agency. It was part of chime's agenda but i haven't seen any yet.

I have the same fears too. You know when Chimaroke started constructing roads, I was praying we have someone to continue from where he stopped and God gave us even a better Governor, now am sure He will also give us someone better than Sullivan. We are getting there, if not there already sef

REALITY101:

Long live bro! There're still some Nigerian fellas reasoning without brain down there assss

Thanks bro, its really a sad one. Long time

COOLDUN:

Thank you very much for your great reasoning, must it be tithes and offerings that makes God to bless people? Many are paying tithes and offerings everyday looking for the fruits of the womb, while the mad women and the poorest women in the society are giving birth freely and safely without even knowing the church premises. You said clearly my dear that the quest for riches and success is the dominating reason why churches are always filled up every worshiping days. The blessings of God is absouletly free, when you worship him in truth and faith, love your neighbor as you love yourself.

The politicians in Africa have capitalized in this ignorance of our people to be dealing with us, because they know that we have forgotten our fundamental rights as the citizens, because we need our everything from God in heaven, than asking them about the blessings which God gave us at our respective towns and villages. If you look very well you would see that these so called GO of the big and influential churches are very close to the Rulers of this country.

Imagine someone who eats from the church calling a pianist a volunteer to God? Chei Nigeria, how does he give all the tithes and offering money to God in heaven? This is a sheer wickedness, a jobless fellow who plays an instrument that moves members of your church, with an empty stomach, while you visit both local and foreign banks every day with heavy amounts of cash. Which God is these so called men of God worship my people? Jesus Christ used 5 fishes and 7 loaves of bread which people donated as tithe and offering to feed multitudes, while our own pastors use theirs to oppress the multitudes. This was a man who has been contesting to rule this country, instead of him to pay this young man off; he prefers to use more money to intimidate him.

If anyone wants to work for Christ, the fellow must emulate Christ in Love, simplicity, and humility, he is the Way, Truth and Life.
Which way Nigeria?

Am telling you, even some of these pastors make our God to look like a very wicked God, not true, He is a merciful God. Not interested in our money. I love that question you asked, cos I have wondered myself, who is the standard for all these pastors, is it not Christ. Will He be leaving the kind of life these guys are living if He was with us today.

Ezeagu Daalu nwanne. Very lovely hotel. I spent 2weeks there and I was really impressed with their services.

Jisie ike, udo di excess

^^^Yeah some of them do, Torres built a stadium for his community in Spain and also a highly sophisticated gym.

^^^Why e no miss road come your house?

What a careless death, if we had good hospitals in Nigerian maybe he could have survived and so many people die this way in that country. Its a shame

All the best THE GREAT ONE. A true leader, that truly loves his people.

Techwriter: Some people just don't understand how the kingdom of God operates. This guy will still remaim poor even if Okotie gives him 100 million Naira because of the mindset he is operating with. The same goes with those who attend churches where they pay tithe but goes behind to grumble or come to Nland to complain. Such people don't receive anything.

The road to blessing in this kingdom is honor. He shouldve been seeking for the Man of God's blessing. When Arch Bishop Benson Idahosa died many of his pastors went to meet the wife to pay them what her deceased husband owed them, it was Oyedepo dat came and paid those people off. Today where are those people and where is Oyedepo? Its in observing these kingdom principles dt is d secret behind oyedepos rise and some jobless fellows come here to say he ate tithes

One last example: J. Martins that is popular today is a member of my church Dominion City. He is a well known begger. He used to play keyboard and the church will try to pay him he will refuse and prefer to be begging people money after service. Ask anybody in Dominion City who knew him them. One time my pastor David Ogbueli called him out and prophesied that his musical career will go global. He released his first christian music but did not sale b4 he met P2 by a struck of luck. Today, he is a big boy in terms of cash rising from nothing.

Nlanders u need to undestnd our kingdom; what Isaac gave Jacob was not material but a BLEsSing. It used to be more coveted than the material things. Be faithful wt your tithe for thosr of you who pay and don't grumble

Some people have totally been brainwashed to the level that they cannot think on their own anymore. So if you knew all the principles of God's blessings, how come you have not become the richest Nigerian. You guys should stop listening to the lies your jet-loving-pastors are feeding you with. So J-Martins is now a success because he did not collect his salary and the elevation God gave to him is to be singing "give me your fine fine love" and others. Some Nigerians will never cease to amaze me. Why wont your pastor prophesy such when he knew the guy was very good and would go places, plus he was happy not paying him.

Let me tell you, God's blessings most times is not even in monetary forms, its only Nigerians that go to church with expectations of what God will do for them, they never go there to worship him in true love and spirit, always expecting something from him, so its safe to say you lot don't really love Him. Trust me, if not for those expectations and miracles, most Nigerians will never step into any church.

@OP----Okotie should pay the guy up, even if he never owed the guy, is it not only Christlike to help him with some money so he can continue his life, afterall he was very useful in the church. These pastors are very stingy.

U ask yoruba babe 4 her number, u go hear "Sero Hate Sero" (080), Sis Hellevun Sis(6116), Tiri Hate Fife Sefun(3857). Das MY Hem Ti Hen (MTN) nober

People will just be talking as if they have no brains in their skull. When Drogba was included in the TIME magazine's 100 Most influential men in the world, he got that because of his charity works. Drogba has done so much for his country and still doing. A few years ago, he gave them 5million dollars to build hospital for the poor masses in his country. Won't the guy do other things apart from helping the poor? He has tried and I wish the Pastors you guys worship could do just a little. Lazy people

PS: Yesterday was Torres second son's birthday and thats why he could not make it

achukwunet: good evening all. sorry about the late reply. i'm an intern for a crime publishing company associated with my college. it keeps me busy a few days a week.

firstly, i want to congratulate all the contestants. like any competition, there can only be one winner. however, we should all be honored that we were even considered for such a competition. i certainly am and hope all of you are too.

i want to thank the moderators and judges for their work. this thread is almost 100 pages, WOW! more strength to you.

lastly, to those who voted and participated. i appreciate all of you. i contested in miss nairaland in june and can honestly say that this edition had more energy. it was cool.

i saw the link for Flavour's "Black is Beautiful" as the official miss nairaland anthem. I SUPER AGREE! LOL! awesome song. awesome meaning. black is beautiful. we're all beautiful, inside and out. everyone jisie ike.

Your sister made mentioned of volunteering at the clinic during the Eze Nwanyi election and now you an intern. Your sister won miss nairaland previous round and now you are winning this round. Congratulations nwanyi oma.

Shollypopz: @Ogugua: Lol, u are not handing over your crown, the crown stays in the family. Sharp girl

You are a brace lady.

Tell a muslim that he has been brainwashed when promised 72 virgins to kill people, he would argue it till tomorrow and will even take offense. Tell a d.umb Nigerian that these pastors are scamming them, they will still argue it and also take offense. No wonder evil thrives in that country. At this rate, you even think Christianity originated from Nigeria. The western world are no that deluded and things are going on fine in their country, abi God no like Nigeria.

What is there to celebrate? Nigerian leaders and celebration sef.

Baby mama:



' Nuff said!
Not about India but the religion of " peace"

Exactly, what a religion of PEACE indeed

Brainwashed Nigerians, see them saying they paid money(abi na vow) in shiloh last year and they got married and received their blessings. What about some people that paid money too(even higher amount) in same last shiloh and lost their lives this year and some met with bad misfortunes, so what happened to the money they paid Oyedepo? People will never use their brain for once. I have said so many times, Nigerians do not love God, they only go to church cos of what they will gain from Him(material things most times) ala DOUBLE PORTION and these pastors know this hence they use it as a bait to get these re.tards giving more, they never go to church to worship in true love and spirit. Meanwhile, how come the richest Nigerian is someone that never paid tithe, that is Dangote. Brainwashed people will never know that they need to work hard and use their brain instead of seeking short-cuts to success by paying these pastors. More private jets on the way!!!

Rascals

Ileke-IdI:


Even if I was, you think I'd disclose that info to you? Think on what I said too. Stop being a bigot.

The info wouldn't be any useful to me either and please am not a bigot ma'am

Ileke-IdI:


Don't even try me. You can't expect something from someone else that you yourself arent willing to do.

Let me not derail your thread, but just try and ponder on what I said. Meanwhile, you going to Nigeria this xmas?

Ileke-IdI:


I'd have cried if this was coming from ndu_chucks. Unfortunately, it's coming from my "very lovely" best bigot, you

But you know me too well, I don't have time for all that. Honestly, I wish you could change(I mean it)

sagytarius™:
Ileke, you were spot on, not until u uploaded those Ekiti Pixs. It makes me wonder if its no longer a comparison between Nigeria and Kenya (1960s) but a comparison among states in Nigeria. Are you a bigot?

My dear Ileke used to be a very lovely person before she turned to a bigot. I used to love her posts back then. Its so sad mehn

@PROUD IGBO, nwanne those pics are really nice. The place is so nice too. Do they have something like sports facilities there too? Like basketball, tennis lawn, football pitch etc. The place is really nice, am already counting down, will soon be in coal city. Thanks for the pics nwanne

Dammmn Olu Priddy is dead? Oh may his kind soul RIP

Dignitary:

U must be drunk. Awo lived a scandal free life...the records are there. It's just so bad that Internet 'activists' like you find it difficult to read...If you have read any of Awo's books, you will know that self discipline is what Awo preached and emphasised. Awo did not do alcohol, women or drugs. That man is different from so many others. He only married one wife (his inestimable jewel). Word of advice: always think before you post!!!

-Ojukwu did not recognise the people that gave their lives for his Biafran project...no kobo (despite the fact that he had millions) is to be donated to several families that are still feeling the impact of a war he orchestrated. Not even a building (despite the fact that he had several houses) is to be used as a mark of symbol of the Biafrian war!!!
2. Against all expectations, Ojukwu got a daughter from a Northern girl...From the same North he so much hated!!! To make matters worse, he was consumed by shame to tell anyone when he was alive...Infact, Bianca was not in the know!!!

#If this is the man Igbo's see as their hero...they need to have a rethink!!! From the summary of his will and his after war conduct, he appears to be a man that thinks first about himself plus his family and not his Igbo people unlike the way Achebe and others want us to believe!!!

Keep quiet, which Yoruba man does not have kids everywhere, though its a normal thing in Yoruba land but both Yoruba men and women have kids everywhere. Meanwhile, Awo was a womanizer, the originator of Yoruba looting schemes and also an ex-con. So shut up bro.

PS: I have noticed that Mods do not hide posts when people bash Igbos, but once its a Yoruba thread, they will be quick to hide posts and ban people too. God is watching you

What a wonderful post. God is kind to everybody irrespective of your religion. He still cares for everyone and He saved your son and may His name be praised.

@All, the poster is not trying to say he is not appreciative of what God has done for him, but just saying that "Religious" Nigerians will always be quick to give the glory to their pastors if it had happened to them and trust me, if this guy was a member of a certain church in Nigeria and called his pastor while all these happened, the pastor will be sure of having about 100 new members next sunday cos many readers here will rush there. Because Nigerians go to church just because of what they will gain from God and not to worship Him in true love and spirit. Most Nigerians try to make God look like He is a wicked God, some even believe that if you do not attend a certain church that God will not answer your prayers, NO, He is a benevolent God, He cares for us all. Most(if not all Nigerian pastors) are thieves and very manipulative.

The painful part is that these thieves are BORROWING TO STEAL.

It is obvious that our leaders have fallen out of love with our beloved country, hence they are ra.ping her ruthlessly

eaglechild: Spyder
Can you pls give some update on the proposed secretariat building.
Heard it is a massive project

Exactly, I heard there is a massive work going on there. Please spyder any pics?

spyder880: There is increase in the traffic at Ogui road junction, maybe we shall find a solution to this in the not too distant time.

Ogui rd is always a busy road. What could be the cause of the traffic this time? Maybe the gas stations. Something has to be done swiftly sha

These people have finished Nigeria's coffers and credit card scam in the UK, now they are upgrading by every passing day. Ndi ofe, I give up on them.
