BrokenHeart2016:Bros, please can you explain why you have been the one helping her financially and even paying her school fees yet you didn't enrol for your HND or B Sc ? |
Imagine what drinking caused. RIP |
goodforsomthing:Haba! Bros calm down now, abeg. |
Jayjones:The MD of NPA must not necessarily be a maritime expert. |
Osmondinho:Please where is Tinubu, Oyegun, Dele Alake and Obasanjo in this administration? Very silent. |
uwagimboo:This is the most hilarious comment so far. |
Love Machine:The problem is that one of the 3 regions in the south will always be used to destabilize the south. The North are always United irrespective of party affiliation. |
tayooluwole:Bros, even me gets confused about the content of the bible. Just yesterday somebody drew my attention to suggest that the late preacher should be blamed. Matthew 10:22 When they persecute you, "run away" to another city because before you finished runing around to all the cities, I will come. It seems to be that there are things the Whitemen who brought Christianity didn't tell us. Of all religions, Christianity is the most divided with conflicting beliefs and opposing doctrines. From Catholic, Anglican, Celestial, Jehoval Witness, Presbyterian to Shabbat, all have different theories. Pentecostal is another very broad topic. |
farouk0403:And you think you are better than him, right? MUST not "most" Keep QUIET not "quite" |
philip0906:What kind of question is this again? Didn't you observe that Jesus had a coiled hair? Christians are Christ-like. Ngwa jè gwazia ndi yadi ùnù. |
tayooluwole:When they attack you in one city run to another. Keep running like that because you will not have gone round everywhere before my coming.......Matthew 10:23 This is more like telling Christians that they are on their own. |
Amberon11:With this your submission, is it now safe to say any Christian praying against danger or death of any kind is ignorant and coward? |
tayooluwole:"No weapon fashioned against ME shall prosper". This statement was a declaration by someone---not a promise from God. In the bible, you need to understand when God or Jesus is taking and when other followers or apostles are talking on their own. |
bigmeechfilms:Religious Killings: WHO IS GUILTY? Religious killings and wanton destruction of properties fuelled by prolonged hate or spontaneous provocation has been with us from time immemorial and doesn't look like there is a solution in sight yet---perhaps until there is a paradigm shift. Analysing the gruesome murder of the Deeper Life Bible Church member in Kano to the most recent killing of the RCCG female preacher in Abuja, there is a general consensus in describing both incidents as unfortunate. Unfortunately, the definition of that word "unfortunate" in this context meant different things to the adherents of the 2 major religions in the country. While it meant "unwarranted killing" for one group, the other described it as "avoidable provocation". These opposing reactions is (in most cases) even more painful than the killing itself. Added to this pain is the loud silence by certain leaders whose swift reactions could have done so much in calming frayed nerves. However, My interactions with the staunch adherents of the 3 religions suggests that lack of respect and tolerance are the prominent factors negating the desired peaceful coexistence. I therefore want us to deliberate on the following questions with a view to creating the needed paradigm shift to a new consciousness and realization. 1. At what point does the activities of another religion becomes a deliberate and overbearing imposition to others? 2. Is it naturally offensive for a preacher to say "XYZ is the ONLY or TRUE religion and if you reject XYZ, you will die and go to hell"? 3. If we practice our different religions without claiming that one is superior and with a little more tolerance, will there be peaceful coexistence? IS PAGANISM THE MOST PEACEFUL RELIGION? According to statistics, there are more than 4,200 religions in the world. In Nigeria we have only 3 (Christianity, Paganism and Islam) yet the whole country is boiling. Interestingly, of these 3, Paganism (which was our original African traditional religion before the introduction of the rest by foreigners) appears the most peaceful with enviable tolerance and nonviolent approach---even in the face of undue interference and provocations like the destruction/burning of their altars by either Christians or Islamic religious group. We refused to teach African Religious Studies (ARS) yet you will hardly or never hear of Pagans fighting the other two religious groups. HOW CAN WE STOP RELIGIOUS CONFLICT? |
bluaero:He is their leader. |
It's simply the result of joblessness. Once you have a job it will be over. |

Incorrect1:And you were really expecting a sane person to move this to FP? |
ArcFresky:Creative in your search. Get connected. You have shown a good understanding of the Nigerian Labour Market. |
I don't think he was talking about other kinds of gun apart from cartridge. I don't think anybody has charm that can prevent AK47 or Machine gun. |
Op. Your story is supposed to be touching but my feelings for you is that of ambivalence. First, I am tempted to blame your dad for not visiting for about 16 years, but then, nobody knows exactly why yet. Secondly, I am disappointed that at 7years old you didn't know anything about your father, not even his name, his siblings or even his village. More so, without apology, I must say that both your mum and her family were careless not to have known reasonable details about your father. Anyways, My conclusion is if your dad was visiting and suddenly stopped, not because he had issues with either your mum or her family, then it is worrisome----and very worrisome. My advice for you is to focus "MORE" on how you can become a better person while leveraging on any information you can get to find him. |
The leader of a cult group who was arrested arrested over the weekend by the operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) of Lagos State Police Command in has said that no amount of gun – shot can penetrate his body. The cult suspect, Andrew Awalebi, 35, who belonged to Eiye Confraternity, was arrested on Friday morning at a beer parlour in company of three other cult members around 8:00 a.m. Two other members of the cult group, Adegoke Adeleke (30), Kehinde Adebogun (31), were also picked up early Saturday morning at an hotel in Ikorodu. Awalebi, from Ilaje Local Government, Ondo State was given out by Michael Thompson of the same Eiye Confraternity as a cult leader. Thompson was arrested a night before for robbery in National Stadium Surulere, Lagos. Awalebi, who disclosed that he worked with a popular land owner in Lekki stated that he earns N40, 000:00 monthly from the property dealer for helping to protect his landed property in the axis. He told investigator that the gun – shot protective charm was specially prepared for him by an herbalist in Ijebu – Isiwo, Ogun State to save him from gunshots of land grabbers in Lekki. He added “I was initiated into Eiye Confraternity in 1996 by Banji Omisore and later in 1997 I was promoted as its topmost leader after the death of Omisore. “We are eight member cult group. We meet very early in the morning or late at night. I have been arrested by Special Anti – Robbery Squad sometimes ago when my cult group caused mayhem in Jakande Estate, inflicting injuries on passers-by in the area,”he disclosed. Arrested alongside Awalebi were Michael Thompson (24), Adegoke Adeleke (30), Kehinde Adebogun (31), Koffi Kwame (17), Daniel Olayiwola (36) and Tosin Issac (26) as they all confessed to be members of Eiye Confraternity. While confirming the arrest, the image maker of Lagos Police Command, Superintendent of Police, SP Dolapo Badmus, warned parents and guardians to be wary of their children and wards’ behaviors. “Charity begins at home. But this should end there. Parents should help police to tackle cultism in their respective localities. They should endeavor to report to the nearest police station around them if they suspect movements of their children, this will help the Police to nip the cultism to the bud,” she advised. The cult suspects have been transferred to the State Criminal Investigative Department (SCID), Panti.  http://thenationonlineng.net/no-gun-can-pierce-body-cult-leader/ |
JoeCutie:If you have been following the politics of Anambra State since 2003, your views could have been different. Ngige remains the best governor in Anambra state albeit divine intervention. Peter had no other option than to continue implementing and completing Ngige's policies and projects, and yes! Peter did a wonderful job in that. Ordinarily Obiano and Peter couldn't have become enemies since it was Peter that brought him into APGA, basically to cover his tracks, against the wishes of the party. It was understandably so because Obiano was a successful banker but never into mainstream politics. The current bickering between Peter and Obiano was caused by the former when he aligned forces with Tony Nwoye as his preferred candidate against Obiano. This move was seen as a means to disorganise the party because of Obi's enmity with Victor Umeh and other APGA chieftains. More so, because Tony was known to be working with PDP at the time. Little wonder that Nwoye quickly went back to PDP when the plot failed and contested the governorship as a PDP flagbearer. That singular move exposed and gave Peter Obi away as a saboteur. It was made even clearer when he made so many attempts at destroying the party before his eventual romance with PDP. Even Ojukwu in his grave will be disappointed at Peter Obi for trying to destroy a party he built to advance the Igbo course. Today Peter has left for PDP and peace has returned to the once polarised APGA. |
mrkayusfit:The mention of Imo state led by Okorocha makes mockery of your write-up. |
Nice thinking |
Sunnycliff:What If he has activated the "flight mode"? |
Very right. Inasmuch as he is reading the word of God. He can use laptop, iPad, phone etc. Besides the phone makes it easier for him to locate verses without wasting time. |
HungerBAD:You are the first to comment on this thread, so who exactly are you responding to? |
samx4real:Yes. He looks like the black version of Jesus. |
Where do you reside? |
ckmayoca:You know roadside mechanics also call themselves engineers. |
solexadex:And you are still there? |
