Nigerians are so innovative especially in this era of change into recession and inflation. This guy made sure every coin spent on buying bags of Rice this Christmas was made to count.

Only two countries in the whole world add One before their name 1.one Nigeria 2.one China. One thing is common among the two; 'hostage and slavery of countries/citizens within it seeking for self determination ' like biafrans like Taiwanese.

@OP am led by the spirit of the Lord to congratulate you for counting yourself out of the number that are believing God to be with Him in his kingdom forevermore. Welcome to HELL. Your eternal home of torment. You think your tiny brain that can cease from existence in the next 30seconds can judge GOD and HIS standards set for humanity. The last time I checked animals don't battle with sin, except Man because a fruit was eaten in a garden. That fruit like a virus breeds sin, and only the cleansing antivirus (the blood of Jesus Christ) can set you free from Sin. With people like you heaven is impossible but with God nothing shall be impossible. Once more, since you rejected heaven you can't reject hell. Thank God you won't come back to counter this thread when you die and find yourself before the God you just insulted. Once more welcome to hell Mr walking dead.

GlorifiedTunde:
Hmmm. OP you're probably right. But I do not think that's what caused your accident. Your fear probably did that, and for a moment there you allowed the devil played with your mind. The feeling that a transgression causes you misfortune is not a christian like way of living, else we all would have been dead.

Back to the mavro things you said, its obvious you researched it well.
But you must know that Mammon (money) is scripturally attributed to the devil. So you cannot serve Mammon and God. However we spend money on earth.

What I'm trying to say is if you try investigating everything you use or spend in this world, you'll find out that many of it are related to the demonic world. Even the internet you're using, I being an IT exert will prove it to you that its beyond normal. However, God has said in the last days, knowledge will increase.

So God left many things the way they are, the most important thing is to live a righteous life with a heart❤ of purity in your crave, acquisition and use of these things including money.

Like you know, money is not the root of evil but the unhealthy "love" or "crave" for money leads to all evil.

well said but I still believe that devil only has access to you if you are in possession of what belongs to him. He who breaks the edge the serpent bites. They who are led by the spirit of God are the sons of God. I ignored the spirits leading and I paid the price with an accident. Discernment helps you know why an event actually happened. Am not saying that I have never had an accident but I know from my bones that my involvement in mmm had something to do with it thus opening a doorway to the devourer.

It was a beautiful morning of September 10, 2016. My cousin walks into my house full of Joy. Nwanne mmadu he called out and I replied odogwu kee ije. After exchange of pleasantries came a news too good to be true. He evangelized mmm with such charity and gladness that I wondered how valuable this guy would have been to heaven if he preached Jesus Christ to the lost the way he expounded the mmm message to me. As a man expecting a financial miracle I easily embraced this money making machine called mmm (mavrodi mundial movement). Before you could say Jack, I had enrolled into the mmm scheme with #200000. And off my mavro started growing. But there was a little problem, I lost my peace of mind partly because I was afraid of losing my money if I invest but much more than that my spirit was daily rejecting the scheme. As days went bye I continued to lose my peace. I decided not to invest, so I put a call across to my cousin and he advised that if am not interested I should allow him invest with his own money into my mmm office which I obliged. But greed hath no cure other than more greed. So I was finally matched 8days to my withdrawal date, I was tempted by the prospect of losing 80000. So I defied my spirit man and I invested. 4 days after investing I decided to do a research about mmm. Then I bumped into a book written by Sergey mavrodi titled : Lucifer's son (the temptation chronicles) a book that painted Lucifer as a very good and compassionate being. I decided to search further only to discover that the mmm currency (mavro) means darkness or black, searching further I discovered that mavro is denoted numerically by the number 6. I therefore had no further doubt about mmm and it's Antichrist connection. Not forgetting to tell you that the name Sergei means shepherd in Russia language. Then I made my withdrawal on the 10th of October 2016 to the tune of 283000 asking God for forgiveness I pulled out the mmm scheme. But based on the fact that light and darkness can't fellowship together, I had to pay back the hard way. The mmm money was still trickling in when I had a fatal accident 2days after I pulled out. God's mercy alone sustained me but mmm money returned and much more money went with it for my car repairs. If you think am delusional you're right but this message shall meet the elect and liberate them from the Antichrist mmm scheme.
Note: there are several mutual aid communities today, you can freely invest but MMM for Christians should be avoided like a plague. If your heart is already hardened then keep on acquiring mavro (darkness) and cashing in mavro (darkness) until the day of reckoning. Below are snapshot of the research made.

– A lawyer, Daniel Makolo, has asked for an order of mandamus compelling President Muhammadu Buhari to appoint a minister representing the people of Kogi. President Muhammadu Buhari has been sued by the lawyer for allegedly failing to appoint a minister to represent Kogi state in his cabinet.
Daniel Makolo, who instituted the suit said his suit FHC\L\CS\44\2016 at the Federal High Court, Lokoja on Thursday, September 22, was pursuant to Order 34 Rule (1) and Order 5 Rule (1) of the Federal High Court (Civil Procedure) Rules 2009.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the lawyer faulted President Buhari for failing to appoint a replacement for James Ocholi, former minister of state for labour and employment, who died in a car accident. Makolo is seeking an order of court that the failure of Buhari to appoint a qualified indigene of Kogi as a minister after Mr. Ocholi’s death was wrongful, unlawful and unconstitutional.
He described the failure to appoint a minister from Kogi as an attempt to deny the people of Kogi state representation at the meetings held by the president with his vice and ministers. He also asked for an order of mandamus compelling the president to appoint a minister representing the people of Kogi.
The lawyer is urging the court to declare every decision reached at the meetings held by the president with his vice and ministers void. The applicant further asked the court to void the resolution reached at subsequent meeting to be held by the president and his cabinet without a representative of kogi people. He said the president had a responsibility to appoint a minister to represent each of the 36 federating states, noting that such responsibility was not optional.
The lawyer is also seeking an order directing the attorney-general of the federation to carry out a corona inquest into the death of Mr. Ocholi to uncover the cause of the accident. Recall that Mr. Ocholi, his wife and son, died in an auto crash on Abuja-Kaduna Road on March 6.

SLS was busying himself dishing out unsubstantiated figures as missing monies from the national coffers just to discredit the last administration.Now it's believed that he has found the perfect economy he so desired in the present illiterate dumb head he currently have as his leader.So kindly spare me this your crap epistle,wailing & born-to-rule mentality

Am much more interested in the model he proposed for national growth. This thread is not about criticizing his past relationship with the past govt but about the workable pathways which is a sure way to our growth as a Nation. Note he also criticized some of present govt policies.

[center][/center]Having read through such an insightful lecture, I keep wondering if our leaders deliberately choose to perpetuate hardship on its citizenry even though they know the way out of our 56years old suffering and smiling condition as a Nation. http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/209699-nigerian-govt-caused-economic-recession-emir-sanusi.html

if you don't believe then read from source:vanguardnigeria.org/why-northern-politicians-are-angry-with-buhari/

Dr. Junaid Mohammed, a sharp critic of
former President Jonathan, has bared the
mind of most northern politicians on the
Buhari led administration.
In a telephone interview with reporters,
Junaid expresses disgust at the way the
man the North supported runs the
presidency.
Hear Junaid yourself:
“As far as we are concerned, the
president’s principal adviser, his nephew,
is one nonentity called Mamman Daura.
“Then there is his Chief of Staff [Abba
Kyari], who was brought up by Mamman
Daura.
“And the scoundrel who is the Secretary to
the Government of Federation [Babachir
David].
“Then most of the incompetent ministers,
whom are not cut out to work
harmoniously with the legislature.
“And of course, there is the unfortunate
additional bad luck of Buhari being
surrounded by his own relations who are
not politicians.
“For instance, Mamman Daura, virtually
runs the government. He has veto power.
“There have been instances when Buhari
gave written approval for things to be
done, and that man threw the paper away.
“He has become such a tyrant in the
Presidency. He is a nephew to Buhari.
“His father was the elder brother of
Buhari.
“Although their age difference is about
three years, his father is an elder brother
to Buhari and they grew up together.
“[Abba Kyari] was brought up by Mamman
Daura. His father left him with Mamman
Daura to go to Borno, his original state
where he was a village head.
“And for all intents and purposes, he is a
son of Mamman Daura. He is now the
chief of staff to Buhari.
“Then [Kabir Daura] the personal assistant
to Buhari himself, is the son of Mamman
Daura.
“And the girl [Aisha Abubakar] who was
picked out of nowhere from Sokoto. She is
not a member of the APC. She has nothing
to do with anybody.
“She was picked and made a minister by
Mamman Daura and Buhari because her
mother is Buhari’s sister.
“So it is really a contradiction for Buhari to
have, for example a nephew of his, the
son of his elder sister as the Minister of
Water Resources [Hadi Sirika].
“He has another niece of his, the elder
sister of [Sirika], who is now a national
commissioner in the INEC, Amina Zakari.
“Buhari nominated her even before he
became president when Jonathan asked
him to nominate somebody to represent
the North West in INEC.
“He chose that woman.
“Unfortunately for the country and for
Buhari’s legacy himself, he has packed the
Presidency with his own relations.
“There are many people who are his own
cousins in the Presidency.
“In my own understanding of history and
politics, this is what you call nepotism.
And if you are against corruption, you
cannot be nepotistic,” Junaid lamented

Donald Trump has harshly criticised
African leaders for turning own people
into slaves and promoting corruption
– “Africa should be recolonized because
Africans are still under slavery.”
Republican presidential candidate in the
United States presidential election of 2016
Donald Trump is at it again, as he has
lashed out at African heads of state.
Mr Trump was adressing reporters in
Nebraska last week, where he condemned
African leaders for having insatiable desire
for power and wealth, while their people
are living like slaves.
Responding to a question a from South
African journalist on African countries
considering mass withdrawal from the
International Criminal Court (ICC) Trump
said:
“It is shameful for African leaders to seek
exit from ICC. In my view, these leaders
want to have all the freedom to oppress
their poor people without anyone asking
them a question.
I think there is no shortcut to maturity and
in my view, Africa should be recolonized
because Africans are still under slavery.
Look at how those African leaders change
constitutions in their favour so that they
can be life presidents. They are all greedy
and do not care about the common people.
When I saw them gang up against ICC yet
they can’t even find an amicable solution
for the ongoing quandary in Burundi, I
thought to myself these people lack
discipline and humane heart.
They can’t lead by example. The only thing
they are interested in is accumulating
wealth from poor tax payers.”

Truth is if Abacha never died no loot would have been recovered and if saraki did not betray his fellow ruling class thieves for the senate presidency nobody will be talking about assets declaration and his many embezzlements. Nigerians keep supporting thieves to rule over them while praying to God for economic boom. I even forgot......Saraki the devil, Tinubu the saint

UyiIredia:
Well that should have some symbolic meaning as to the significance of Christ's death. In truth for the risen Christ the sbol is an empty cross.

On the contrary I thing the best sign still remains an empty tomb with our risen king standing above it as a sign of conquest. @empty cross might denote He set himself free from crucifiction as demanded by one of the thieves by his side but He died on that cross and was buried from where his conquest over death happened

Papist:

Here is St Paul:
1 Corinthians 1:23
but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews a
stumbling block, and to Gentiles foolishness,

Note: Christ crucified is past tense according to my english teacher. He never said we preach Christ being crucified which is present continuos tense. The sign of Christ hanging on the cross is both present and continuos sign.

I have been a christian for many years and yet one thing still puzzles me. Its the fact that during Easter celebration, Christians world use a sign of Jesus still nailed to the cross to mark his power over death. My confusion is how do people celebrate a living King using his dead on the cross pic.
Fact is 1. He is risen, no more hanging on the cross(matt 28:6-7)
2. He sits at the right hand of the father(colosians 3:1)
3.He was seen of men(luke 24:38-40)
If there is anything am missing in this my observation please someone should enlighten me

Plant & Stop Cutting Trees!

Climate change poses both challenges and opportunities for women in the developing world. As climate change advances and food, fuel and water become scarce and unreliable, many people will have to work harder and longer to get them thereby depriving them of valuable time for education and income-generating activities.

In line with Climate Change awareness, the Cross River Most Beautiful Girl & Miss Cross River MBGN 2015,Queenette Awukamhas joined other notable Nigerians including the Minister of Environment,Amina MuhammedandSenator Prof. Ben Ayadethe Executive Governor of Cross River state to call for greater awareness on Climate Change in Cross River, Nigeria and worldwide.

Considering the latest Paris agreement on Climate change, Queenette Awukam a beauty queen and a cultural value ambassador is asking that we all should rise to these challenges of climate change, it is real and right in our face. Lets PLANT AND STOP CUTTING TREES, LETS GO GREEN.
