Wow, after seeing the list of the winners, it seems it's only the 'yoruba' artistes that are dominating the Nigeria music industry. The Headies should be renamed to 'Lagos Music Award' or 'Oduduwa Award'. So as big as Nigeria is, does that mean we do not have artistes from other part of the country (apart from west) who deserves to win one of the awards ? And to think that the most talented artiste, Kiss Daniel, in Nigeria didn't win an award. Headies ko Berries ni.

Bro, it's a pity that no one bothered to comment on this. It was yesterday that I downloaded the song. I noticed few things while listening to the song. It's a good thing that you're a big brother who wants the best for his kid brother. Your brother should be proud of you. As I was saying, first and foremost, don't doubt your brother's musical talent. It's a good thing that he has passion for music. But he needs more than that in order for him to excel in the music industry. He needs dedication, devotion, determination, hardwork, patience, perseverance and money for him to be successful. Secondly, try to advise him to take advantage of the internet. Nowadays, we have lots of people who have become successful as a result of posting their passion on social media. Take for example, Justin Bieber who got his big break by posting cover version of popstars' songs on his YouTube channel. Tell him to post his freestyle sessions on his social media accounts. He can also tag his role models / mentors in the industry. This might help his career. Lastly, I have no doubt that he's really talented but he needs to work on his lyrics. In his beautiful song, he did the same thing which most Nigerian artistes usually do. He put like five different songs in one song. No disrespect to him, it's just my humble opinion. Next time when he wants to write a song, he should concentrate on the title and chorus of the song. This two things will determine the verses in the song. About his name, I also don't feel it. When he mentions his name, the first thing his fans would do is compare him with Lil Kesh. And believe me, that won't help his career. With all due respect to him, let him get a new stage name. I'm sure he already knows this, he needs lots of money to make good music. And that's why it would be good if he gets signed to a record label. I have a friend who spent almost all his life savings on music. When he didn't get the desired result, he had to something else. But by then he had lose a lot. I pray that won't be your brother's portion in Jesus' name, Amen. May he be successful in the entertainment industry. Lest I forget, I hope he knows he's going to face stiff competition because the music industry is a very competitive one. So let him prepare for the best but expect the worst. One more thing, ko ma wo ago alago fi sise (Yoruba) language. He shouldn't compare himself with others. GOD's time is always the best. Once again I wish both of you the best in your career. Someday, your brother would become a superstar and you would be very proud of him.
Thanks.

One more thing ishilove didn't create this thread because of people like you who have sold their conscience to satan. Even a five year old kid can tell the difference between good and bad. GMB is bad news for Nigerians. Continue to defend this evil man and by GOD's grace what happened to the people of Benue and Taraba will be your lot. Know one thing, GMB doesn't give a Bleep about your existence. If you meet your LORD today, that won't stop GMB from balling. Thanks

Hey Usba, why is it that you're always quick to reply every thread that is against "your president?" Ninety percent of your comments on nairaland are used in defending your GOD-forsaken leader. Actually, everything the lady typed is nothing but the truth. But if you have a different opinion, it's alright. But at least kindly give us evidence to prove that GMB is the best thing that's ever happened to Nigerians. Buhari is synonymous to corruption. He's the definition, typical example, the beginning and the end of corruption. So don't give me that gibberish that GMB is incorruptible. On the contrary, he's guilty of everything he's been accused of. Create your own topic and list all the achievements of GMB since the time he became president. Of course you can't because his only achievement is that he defeated an incumbent president in an election. Buhari is an hypocrite because he's also guilty of everything he's accused PDP of. Stop decieving yourself, open up your mind and see the truth.

Ishilove:
You are hyperventilating, and in the process sounding incoherent, erratic and mentally unhinged.

Get away from my face, you son of Satan who sold his soul for a measly 2000 naira! I hope the money is enough to buy you 2 buckets of gari and 3 derica of rice. Oloriburuku somebody

All hail the Queen.

Are you the the original writer? Are you the owner of the source Facebook account? Answer these questions first before we go to the issue of apology[/quote]Must you call him an idiot before you make your point ? Perhaps you're not a good cook ? I'm sure he wouldn't have mentioned your name if he knew you were going to insult him. Apart from his mistake of saying poverty is rooted in some people's system, there's nothing discriminatory about his write-up. I don't even understand this habit of name-dropping some fellas on nairaland just because you wanna hit front page. Don't take it personal. "nolove."

I heard it that 'once a fool, always a fool.' I do not even know where to start from but I'll try anyway.
In 2014, almost everyone in Nigeria was chanting 'sai baba' even up till 2015.
Towards the end of 2015, people were already getting fed up. But they still gave GMB the benefit of doubt.
During this time, the only excuse GMB was giving was to shift the blame on the opposition party.
We all endured it until ending of 2016 when it became conspicuous to everyone that this GMB has no clue about governance.
Even he, himself got tired of the 'blame game'. Everyday we heard PDP this, PDP that. We started wondering is PDP still the ruling party or what ?
Fast forward it to 2017, we stopped calling him 'sai baba' apart from his hardhearted supporters. Now I hear things like 'sai bubu.' In 2018, he bacame known as 'sai buba.'
I'm sure the mistake APC made was to believe that they could repeat the same thing they were doing in the state level in the central level too. Just because they've been successful in Lagos, they think the same thing would happen when one of them becomes a president.
They've forgotten that Lagos is different from Nigeria.
In 2015, the reason why many didn't vote for GEJ was because of PDP.
If GEJ had switched to APC, he would have won the election. We were just tired of PDP since we believe Nigeria isn't a one party system country.
We only wanted another party to produce the next president. And that's where GMB came in. Many people saw him as the savior of Nigeria. Some even said if he had been allowed to rule Nigeria for a longer period during his millitary rule, Nigeria would have been a better place by now.
They've forgotten that during that time, GMB was just a ceremonial head of state. Idiagbon is responsible for all the success GMB achieved that time.
But now he's surrounded by clueless people like him. Most of them are sycophants who do not have the interest of the masses at heart. They are there for their own selfish purpose.
To crown it all, GMB whom many people used to regard as an incorruptible leader is now an accomplice in everything. In short he's now the commander-in-chief of corruption, nepotism, tribalism, favoritism etc. Yet he continues to pretend as if he's the best of mankind.
He even has the gut to say his government has improved in security compared to the time of GEJ. It's either he's a pathological liar or his own definition of 'security' is different from the one in the dictionary.
During the time of GEJ, there was lot and lot of corruption. Infact, it was during his time that politicians graduated from stealing millions to billions of naira.
But one good thing about GEJ was that he was surrounded by people who were good at what they were doing. His minister of finance was a very intelligent woman who stabilize the economy. During GEJ's governance, everything was cheap. Although am not a student of economics, but I know how cheap things were at the market. There was corruption during the time of GEJ but it never stopped the economy from florishing. During GEJ's time, I used to eat at least five times a day. But now nko, I find it hard to eat three times a day. There're times when I have to divide my breakfast into two so I can eat the remaining part in the afternoon.
The prices of everything has skyrocketed and yet GMB and his evil supporters still thinks he's the best thing that has ever happened in Nigeria. During the time of GEJ, I used to take 20k to market to buy foodstuffs and it would last me for at least a month.
Now I take times three of that to market and it hardly last me for a week. The money for transportation alone could have been used for something better.
Everyday I keep hearing so-so-so and so amount has been recovered but am yet to see the effect on the economy. It's only there to salivate on the pages of newspaper.
Who does anti-corruption war helps when the real war of hunger, unemployment, loss of lives is going on in the country.
All of a sudden, BH the dreaded insurgents has now become national heroes because they were kind enough to return the dAPChi girls.
They even got a standing ovation from the grieving parents. Are they not the same people that abducted the Chibok girls ?
You mean I should be grateful to an armed robber who robbed me of my hard earned money at gunpoint. After almost giving me an heart attack, he returned my money because we practise the same religion. And you expect me to give him a red carpet welcome. If this parents continue to behave this way, BH will continue to abduct their kids.
In this same government cows now have high chances of survival compared to human beings. Thank you GMB.
You didn't think twice before calling IP0B a terrorist organisation. IP0B that hasn't taken the life of anyone compared to FH who are guilty of arson, murder {even pregnant women & kids too}, armed robbery etc. 0ga GMB, well done sir.
Under your administration, this country is now being run like a monarchy % mafia system of government.
They say a fool at forty is a fool forever. Once; it's a mistake, twice, it's coincidence. When it happens the third time, it's called foolishness. ABAT is someone whom I've always respected all my life. We all know that he's instrumental to GMB's victory in 2015.
Even after I realised he made a mistake by imposing GMB on us, I still forgave him because I believe no one is above mistake. OBJ did the same with Yar'adua {rip eni ire} and we forgave him.
After GMB's inauguration, he systematically shunned ABAT out of his government.
Now that 2019 is in the corner, GMB is trying to bring him closer in order to use him and dump him again.
The funniest part is that ABAT has accepted like a faithful statesman that he is. I don't know if he's being blackmailed. Perhaps GMB and his cabal are threatening to persecute him if he doesn't cooperate with them. We all know ABAT hands too aren't clean.
But that doesn't mean that he should submit to their wicked ways like a 'faithful abused wife.'
They say once beaten, twice shy. Then I also look at it in another way, ABAT might be doing this because of his own political ambitions. Perhaps they've promised him of the presidency in 2023 and that's why he's acting like a submissive wife.
And to all the evil supporters of GMB on Nairaland and Nigeria, may GOD silence you all before 2019. I won't mention any name but am quite sure madridguy is already coming to his senses.
I'd rather sell my soul to the devil than support GMB who has nothing good to offer.
Come 2019, if GMB, him and his cronies refuse to go back to Daura, the same thing that happened to king Nebuchadnezar will happen to them in Jesus' name, amen.
Ain't saying PDP is a saint compared to APC but the devil whom you've known for a long time is better than the devil that's disguising like the angel of light.
But if there's one thing which am grateful to GOD for and one achievement which you can't rob GMB of; It's the fact that he won the 2015 election.
Let's say he didn't win it, his name would have been written in gold in the history books of Nigeria.
The historian would have written; ''GMB was a man who had all the qualities of a great leader. He was the savior Nigeria never had. He's incorruptible, honest, gentle and kind. He loved everyone regardless of their tribe, religion, affinity or party etc. Inshort he's the modern day 'Muhammed {S.A.W}'. But Nigerians, PDP & GEJ denied him the opportunity to right all the wrongs in this country. And believe me, they paid dearly for it.''
But thank GOD he won the election and now we know the truth. GMB's name will go down in the history books of Nigeria. Even if there's a space for him, it would be written in pencil so we can erase and add more crimes to his name when he commits another one.
But GEJ would be remembered as a man who put the lives of his country men ahead of his political ambition. GEJ is the major reason why Nigeria remains as one.
Governor Ayo Fayose is also another great man because he warned of this 'calamity' but we refused to listen.
Listen, GEJ you too offended me. You became the president of Nigeria because you have goodluck in your name. I know it's not your fault if Nigerians decide to exCHANGE Goodluck for BUdluck.
But as a 'Jonathan', you should have given the presidency to a 'David' and not a 'Goliath.' All he wants is for we Nigerians to become slaves to his egoistic, foolish and illiterate ethnic group.
But the living GOD whom we serve will never allow that. They shall all perish in the red sea of life in Jesus' name, amen.
Go get your PVC. 2019 will surely be our year of 'independence.'
I just hope we do not make the same mistake we made in 2015. This time around, it shouldn't be anybody but Buhari. No, let's choose wisely.
Thanks.

Mr Seun, thanks for reviving this thread. But I'd like to ask a favor from you. See, if you think this write-up might incite violence or aggression among the members of this forum, please do not hesitate to bring it down. You do not have to apologise for anything because you have the right to say anything so far it's not a crime under the laws of this great nation. I also said all I had to say, no regret. One of the greatest power GOD gave to man is the 'freedom to choose.'

To those who think am insensitive, that's a lie. I respect other people's feelings. And I admire their courage in defending what they believe is right. Listen, am not trying to force my religion on anyone. It's not as if am pointing a gun at your head. No. I admit that am hiding behind my phone and saying all these things. Yes, because am a soft-spoken and gentle person. I do not like arguements especially when it comes to religion. That's why I salute you guys for your maturity and the way you've been handling this matter.

We christians are very gentle. We are open to criticism. In short we aren't afraid of it. I admit that I can't say half of what I said to my muslim friends. I attend MFM but most of my friends are muslims. And I know how they always react anytime we discuss religion. So guys, am sorry if I've offended you in any way.

But you shouldn't be angry that am calling you 'fools.' If you know you're not a fool, then try to pretend as if am the fool. There're times when a parent would call his son a 'bastard' not because he was born out of wedlock or probably not his child. But because he's behaving like one.

There're some people who would ask 'why would a loving GOD create hell'. Brethen, GOD didn't create hell because of you. HE created it for lucifer and one-third of angels that rebelled against HIM.

I also want you to know that everything on this earth has advantages and disadvantages. The only thing that doesn't have a disadvantage is 'JESUS CHRIST.' GOD has given you the opportunity to reign in paradise with HIM. The only thing HE's asking from you is that you believe Jesus is the Son of GOD. And that He died for you and me and then resurrected. Simple as a b c. So if you decide to go to hell, it's your choice.

I realised that every atheists who replied me are very intelligent. Perhaps, more intelligent than me. And I asked myself 'why can't this people use a little bit of the time they used in studying atheism to read the word of GOD. The Holy Bible is the most precious book on earth.

Most of these celebrities who call themselves atheist are hypocrites. They're occultists, they practise satanism. They say GOD doesn't exist but how come they're worshipping satan.

It pissed me off to know that we Nigerians and Africans as whole who are very religious, that we also have atheists among us. I don't care if you were born and bred in Europe or North America and your mentality is different from mine. Perhaps it's because am a bush boy and that's why am reacting like this. But me, I love GOD and I believe in HIM. I'd rather die than to stop believing in my SAVIOR after all HE's done for me. A wretched sinner like, HE allowed HIS only begotten SON to die for me without asking for anything in return except my 'belief.'

See I won't force anyone to believe in GOD, it's your cup of tea. GOD is more than capable to defend HIMSELF. One of the greatest tools the devil has been using for thousands of years is to make 'fools' believe that GOD doesn't exist. If that one didn't work, then he would try to confuse them that he {satan} himself doesn't exist.

Talk about all kinds of confusion; sexual perversion, transgender, peadophilia etc. It's the 'spirit of confusion' that's behind it. Why on earth would a woman of seventy years say she wants to change to a man after living most of her life as a beautiful lady. I even laugh when I hear kids too say 'mum, mum, although am a boy, I feel like a girl inside. What else do you call that if not 'confusion.' This same spirit of confusion is the one responsible for atheism.

If you think am insulting you; I beg you in the name of whatever you believe in, please don't click on this thread. It's not meant for you. Pretend as if it doesn't exist, am quite sure you're good at that. So I do not need to explain it to you. Atheists, I'm sorry, not sorry.

Another thing you should know is that being an atheist won't stop GOD from blessing you. The only thing atheism can deny you of is 'PARADISE.' Yes, it can stop you from making heaven. Another reason why atheist are wealthier than some theist is because they {atheist} have all the time in the world to concentrate on their business, career, future, family etc. They do not have any reason to go to church, mosque or temple etc. But I tell you that I Ayo I've never regretted any moment that I spent in the presence of my LORD. I always feel happy anytime am in HIS presence. I won't trade that fulfilment for anything in the world.

Some christians also make the mistake of believing that 'ibukun Oluwa lo n mu ni la lai fi lala kun.' They forget that faith without work is nothing. As a christian, my own motto is 'I'll do my best and allow GOD to handle the rest'.

So perhaps atheism isn't that bad. Atheism isn't bad if you do not care about where you'd spend eternity. Atheism isn't bad if you do not believe in the afterlife. Atheism isn't bad if you won't say the words 'oh my GOD' for the rest of your precious life. Atheism isn't bad if you'll never turn to any spiritual entity for help. Atheism isn't bad if you can solve your own problems by yourself.

Guys, don't forget you're in Nigeria, 'the home of religion.' If someday, you lost your senses and you can't make decisions for yourself. And your family takes you to the hospital. After spending many months there and no solution. And the doctor being a Naija man says 'e je t'ese ile bo' {let's go spiritual}. Abeg, wetin u go do. A word is enough for the wise.

I'm not angry at anyone. On the contrary, I do love you {no homo}. I'm sorry for writing this long epistle. But believe me, I meant no harm. Omo ti baba ba n'ife si lo n ba wi. Thanks and GOD bless you all, including you, yes you and you too. Shalom.

Mr Fegelfire, thanks for taking the time to analyse everything I wrote. May GOD bless you. If you don't believe in GOD, that means you also don't believe in the afterlife. So i would like to ask you, won't you like to see your loved ones when you die ? It's kind of insane, right but it's the truth. Do you want to have a near death experience before you change your mind. You'll now realize that GOD truly exist. After that, you'll become an evangelist and start preaching the gosple of our LORD from east to west and north to south. I do not have any evidence to show you that GOD exist. What more evidence do i need than "you yourself." The fact that you're alive and reading this is an evidence of GOD'S existence for me. Please don't take the grace of GOD for granted. I'm quite sure it took you at least thirty minutes to type your comments. It will only take you less than five minutes to accept Jesus Christ into your precious life. I hope you do not become ad'orun m'oto. Thanks
Hey mr festwiz, I have no problem with atheists, I just want to win souls for Christ. You too should surrender all to Him before it's too late. Thanks and GOD bless.
Hello asuustrike2009, thanks. GOD bless you too. May you not backslide in Jesus' name, amen. When the trumpet sounds, we shall all reign with our LORD.
Hi Mr Niflheim, i don't know if you're saying the truth or being sarcastic. But whatever it is, may the Most High GOD touch your mind. May you have an encounter with your Savior just like brother Paul did. Thanks. GOD bless you.
Hey JimmyCrow, thanks for dropping by. More life to you. You're also part of GOD's plan in HIS lovely paradise.
I also pray for myself that this write-up won't stand against me on judgement day, amen in Jesus' name.
A very big thanks to you all.
Let's meet in church tomorrow.

Come Seun or what is your name called. I don't know what your problem is. You & your fellow atheists believe you are intelligent. But believe me you all are one of the most foolish people on earth. I don't understand the reason why a sane human being would believe there is no GOD. Really I still can't get it. You believe these planets just came into existence by itself ? You think you came into this world by mere chance ? Oh I see it's evolution. Fools. You think when you die, that would be the end of it all ? How foolish of you guys to think you're more intelligent than your Maker.

But I've come to realize that most of you atheists aren't that foolish. Deep down your heart, you know GOD exist. But you refuse to admit. Most of you are blinded by resentment and bitterness.

Am quite sure most atheists used to believe in GOD until probably something {bad} happened to them which made them change their thinking. Perhaps they lost a loved one. 0r maybe they prayed to GOD and their prayer wasn't answered. And this made them so sad, disappointed and angry that they concluded GOD doesn't exist. I pity these kind of people

But there are some foolish ones which i refuse to pity. As a result of their sinful lifestyle, they decide to pretend GOD doesn't exist so they won't have to ask HIM for forgiveness of their sin. No matter the number of times you say `GOD doesn't exist', that wont change a thing It won't stop GOD from being GOD. GOD is not APC, HE doesn't change.

I'm very sure you Seun are one of this foolish people. But if am wrong, then am sorry. I just hope it's not too late before you know and say the truth. If u like continue to live in a dreamland and say GOD doesn't exist. You can continue to lie that there're quite a few monotheistic religion in the world, each with their own belief and doctrine.

I won't say christianity or islam is the true religion. All am very sure of is that Jesus Christ is the only true way that leads to the Father. Is your name not OluwaSeun ? But you have refuse to thank GOD for the gift of life. You even have the mind to compare yourself with GOD. Aja to ba fe parun, ko ni gbo fere olode Omo ta n ba soro to n warunki, ko se tan a ti parun. I pray that won't be your lot in Jesus' name, amen. So, e ronu ke pi iwada ke ma ba sonu.

This intelligence which you think you have, who gave it to you ? Is it not the Living GOD. One day you will know the truth and it will surely set you free.

It is when they're about to die that they now start saying 'GOD, if it's true that YOU exist, am begging YOU to please forgive me my sin. Please spare my life, don't let me die like this. If YOU save me I promise to serve YOU for the rest of my life. But it's already too late Epa o gboro mo.

Thanks
