PoliticsPeter Obi With More Factual Statistics by igatit(op): 9:10am On Jul 29, 2025
On July 22, 2025, the Nigerian Senate approved an additional $21 billion, €2.2 billion, ¥15 billion of external borrowing for the 2025–2026 fiscal cycle. It also approved a N750.98 billion domestic bond issuance and a €65 65million grant. With an already existing public debt of about N149.39 trillion as at the first quarter of 2025, adding the approved loans of about N37.2 trillion) brings our current total debt to about N187 trillion with concerns that our debt might likely be over N200 trillion by the end of 2025.

As our GDP before rebasing was about N269.2 trillion (about $180 billion), the government has borrowed the equivalent of nearly 70% of our previous GDP. Even after the rebasing, which pushed our GDP to about N372.8 trillion (about $243. 7billion), the government would have borrowed about 50.16 % of the new GDP (with the approved loans), the highest debt-to-GDP ratio in our history as a nation.

While the year-on-year increase is about N27.72 trillion and the quarter-on-quarter increase is about N4.72 trillion, we are accumulating very exponential levels of unsustainable debt with little or nothing to show for it in critical areas such as education, healthcare, electricity generation, security of lives and property, and pulling people out of poverty.

We still rank low in all major human development indicators. While education is underfunded and standard in continuous decline, healthcare remains inaccessible to millions of Nigerians particularly the poor. Security of lives and property has deteriorated with over 10,217 people killed and 672 villages sacked between May 29th 2023, and May 29th 2025, even when security spending has significantly increased from N2.98 trillion in 2023 to N4.91 trillion in 2025. Infrastructure decay persists across the country, with about 135,000km of our 195,000km of roads remaining unpaved, largely unmotorable, and unusable. It is the same depressing situation in almost all sectors of the economy, with the power sector an unquestionable example, with less than 5,000 MW supplied for over 200 million Nigerians.

Today, over two years after the present government took over and with all the humongous borrowing, we are still confronted with negative reports of worsening poverty with about 133 million (63%) Nigerians classified as multi-dimensionally poor, increasing unemployment and disheartening news like 652 children dead as the malnutrition crisis worsens in Northern Nigeria.

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), also known as Doctors Without Borders, has just sounded the alarm over an escalating malnutrition crisis in Northern Nigeria, with Katsina State emerging as one of the worst-hit areas.

This is a country blessed with enormous resources, yet nobody should go to bed hungry. Still, a persistent deficiency in leadership has thrown the majority of our citizens into increasing multi-dimensional poverty.

Borrowing is not inherently bad if it is sustainable and tied to productive investments with measurable outcomes. Unfortunately, this current pattern of borrowing without accountability, without transparency, and without transformational impact is simply mortgaging the future of our children. The government should consider the inter-generational consequences of their unsustainable borrowings and show at least a minimum consideration and interest in future of young and unborn Nigerians.

We must return to a disciplined and prudent economic management culture, cutting the cost of governance, blocking leakages, investing in human capital, and building a productive economy. Nigeria cannot continue to borrow recklessly while poverty deepens and public trust erodes.

It is time to stop this fiscal indiscipline. We must build a New Nigeria, where leadership is responsible, development is people-centred, and every kobo borrowed or spent delivers a measurable impact to achieve sustainable and inclusive development and growth.

A new Nigeria is POssible.

Christianity EtcRe: Why Did You Stop Going To Church? by igatit: 10:39am On Jul 20, 2025
The church was planning towards a program, so the pastor made a donation call. The fund was to be used to ludge invited guest ministers.

He decided to categorise the donation from 1m to 500k, 500k to 100k.

He then made a derogatory statement towards anyone who may want to donate below 100k.

"If you know you're in this church and can't give a 100k and above, I don't think you are serious with your life."

So people who may want to donate according to their capacity like: 2k, 5k,10k, 50k..., are not serious with their lives, and have been wasting their time coming to the church over the years?

Yes it was voluntary, but that demeaning statement shouldn't have accorded it.

I wanted to donate above 100k, but that statement got to me and a few others. I didn't wait for the service to end before I left.

That was 4years ago.

Since then, I have been studying the bible on a personal level. God has been blessing me. I still give to charity or individuals I feel really need help.

I have also come to understand very well that, it's not all about church attendance, but WORD attendance. Go for the WORD of GOD. Study it very well. God will proof His efficacy in your frailties.


I know there are some online wardlards with zero achievement that may want to castigate me. Trust me, I careless.

Christianity EtcRe: What Is The Fate Of Our Ancestors Who Did Not Hear The Word Of God by igatit: 10:19am On Jul 07, 2025
The gospel must be heard. Go through my post again. In 1 Peter 3:19; 4:6 Jesus preached to the spirits in prison. The spirit were people that have died before but did not have the privilledge to have listened to or rejected the gospel.

(1 Peter 3:19) "By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison." This verse refers to Jesus, after his death, proclaiming his victory over sin and death to spirits held captive, who are understood by some to be fallen angels or those who rejected God's message in Noah's time.

1 Peter 4:6 " For this reason the gospel was preached also to those who are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit."

The fact remains that, the gospel must be heard and accepted by anyone living or dead before judgement.

Romans 10:10-17 "With the heart we beleive unto righeousness, but with the mouth confession is made unto salvation"

So when they have heard the gospel, it's left for them to believe it or not.


tctrills:
Let me ask a question to understand you. If someone did not hear the gospel but was very good at keeping natural revelation as you call it. These are good and just men but they did not know Christ, what would be their fate?
Christianity EtcRe: What Is The Fate Of Our Ancestors Who Did Not Hear The Word Of God by igatit: 11:10am On Jul 06, 2025
Salvation comes through conscious faith in Jesus Christ.
John 14:6 – "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
Those who never heard the gospel are still accountable for their sin through natural revelation (e.g., Romans 1:18-20), and are without excuse.
This view often wrestles with the fairness of judgment for those who never had the chance to hear.

Now let's look it from a Post-Mortem View
Those who never heard the gospel in life may be given the chance to hear and respond after death.
1 Peter 3:19; 4:6 – refers to Christ preaching to “spirits in prison.”
God’s mercy may extend beyond this life for those who had no opportunity in this life. The mercy of God is upon whom He chooses.

Conclusion: Only those who explicitly confess Christ in this life will be saved.
Although this raises difficult questions about God’s justice and mercy, especially for children, remote tribes, and the mentally disabled.



tctrills:
For no fault of theirs, our ancestors did not hear about Christ or Christianity would they be punished for that or would they be given a second chance?

It is written Timothy 2.3-4
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

Also
Romans 10:14
How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

No one preached to our ancestors so is it the will of God that they also be saved and come to a knowledge of Him?

Christianity EtcI Used Another Man's Seed (sperm) Because I Was Infertile by igatit(op): 12:35pm On Jun 10, 2025
This is a true life story. The names of the true characters have been changed.

I USED ANOTHER MAN'S SEED (SPERM) BECAUSE I WAS INFERTILE

I got married to my sweetheart Andrea Asor Awen in Dec 2011 traditional wedding in Anyingba, Kogi state. I married the daughter of the famous "Alhaji Kampala". And then did the white wedding in February 18 2012 in Makurdi, Benue state.

After the wedding, we were so excited and looked forward to a blissful marriage. All our Amen's were in place, especially to prayers for children. After about 6 months into the marriage my wife didn't take in eventhough i was consistently performing my conjugal duties on a daily basis (no exaggeration) except when we had the monthly visitor which was very much not welcomed as at the time. Infact it always brought tears.

Then the Hospital excapades began, I will prefer not to mention the names of the doctors and hospitals because I didn't ask their permission to mention them in this post and it might protray them in a light that might be in my opinion unacceptable to them. But i sure appreciate them for every thing they are doing and medicine is a blessing, God uses Medicine also to help us.

I first of all visited a lab and did a sperm count and when the test came out, hmmm. The report said they was no sperm to even count. The news came so hard, oga you no get any sperm count.

This meant i was INFERTILE not IMPOTENT (know the difference). Boy, did I cry..I cried oooooooooooooooooooooooo😭😭😭😭😭. After all, Jesus too cried and it wasn't tears of joy. My wife of life was there for me. Thank God for this kind of wife, she was there petting me as i was sulking.

We now went to the hospital, and did more tests and results were the same. I started treatment alongside prayers, drugs became my steady companion and my curiosity always took me to the hospital for sperm count. I was always disappointed. I even went to this herbal guys one chief Ba.... Need i to mention, desperation can make you do anything. the man gave me those herbs that were bitter and I couldn't stand it and that was the straw that broke the camels back.

During this ordeal, the enemy suggested to me that God was punishing me for all the sins i ever committed...mtcheeeeew😏. I didn't know what i know now, i prayed and fasted, my wife did dry fasting two times at MFM and a little glimmer of hope.
The sperm counted but not up to one thousand ( Normal semen contains 40 million to 300 million sperm per milliliter. A low sperm count is considered to be anything between 10 and 20 million sperm per milliliter. Twenty million sperm per milliliter may be adequate for pregnancy if the sperm are healthy. )but it was really poor. One day i told God to just kill me nah.

At some point after another 2 years, My doctor suggested IUI (Intrauterine insemination) Intrauterine insemination (IUI) — a type of artificial insemination — is a procedure for treating infertility. The Urim & The Thummim. Sperm that have been washed and concentrated are placed directly in your uterus around the time your ovary releases one or more eggs to be fertilized.

which i paid for heavily and it didn't work. And he also suggested IVF which i declined and ofcourse I didn't have money for. At this point we tried several other doctors, one referral to another, and let me add, my wife too was running all kinds of tests and scans o. And continuous intake of drugs.

Finally i got tired, we had heard tens of stories of causes of infertility and most were tied to witchcraft, fathers house, mothers house, wedding gifts etc.

I decided if my seed (sperm) will not work, i am going to use another Man's seed (sperm). Infact i was told by one of those doctors resident in Abuja that i can use another mans seed(sperm), i can be given one with the kind of xtics for a child i like.
It occurred to me that i knew a man's that is just perfect.I knew a man's own that matched all the characteristics i desired. He is fine, good blood group, good health, rich and strong. His name is Jesus.

THE WORD SEED AS USED IN THE BIBLE IS THE ROOT WORD FOR SPERMA, WHICH IS THE WORD SPERM COMES FROM.

I studied all the cases of child delays in the bible, Mary the mother of Jesus, Hannah, Abraham, Samson's mum, Isaac and even Elizabeth etc i paid more attention to Abraham's because it had more evidence. All their conception came from the Sperma of Gods word.

After about 4 years and some months, in June of 2015, to cut long story short.
I was reading the bible and by the Spirit stopped on Mathew 18:19 and it felt like my room lit up with a bright light, the entrance of thy word giveth light.
The scripture says St. Matthew 18:19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

Brothers and sisters, the moment this revelation hit me, I called my wife from the shop just Infront of our house into the parlour that day, she sat down and said how far. I read the scripture to her and i said this is the key to our conception. The Urim & The Thummim. I said to her excitedly, this verse will give us our Children.

I said how many of us are here? She replied just Two of us.
I said we meet the first requirement (IF TWO SHALL).

Second requirement, Shall agree on earth... I said babe where are we? She said on earth.
Thirdly, i said let us agree that this month we will concieve and nine months later you will deliver our first born son. We held hands and i declared Lord you cannot lie thank you because we asked for a child and we have agreed according to your word that it is done ALREADY (Past tense).

And from that day, i never did any sperm count again or even take any drug, Heaven bears me witness. Because i used the seed of God's word and we believed it is more than potent. The count is appropriate. We just maintained Thanksgiving for what we have already.

Dear reader, 9 months later exactly, our first born son came. (agreement in June, she missed her period in July, Noah Asor Aver Awen came march 18th 2016 do the maths). 5 months later my wife concieved again I didn't know the agreement continued because i was just playing my regular computer game😜 with no pregnancy in mind. My daughter Shine Mchivirter Awen came.

And on January 10th 2022 my 3rd born son Ethan Terseer Kashimana Asor Aver Awen Ahough Taku was born. How do i deactivate this seed?🤔

Ladies and gentlemen, there is nothing the seed (sperma) of Gods word cannot impregnate. Any dried situation, barren condition, dead and forgotten problem, demonic sickness, stopping satan in his tracks, pls apply the seed (sperma) of Gods word and believe.

On the 18th of February 2022 exactly, my wife and i just clocked 10years of marital bliss.
I say this boldly without mincing words MARRIAGE SWEET ABEG.

Hebrews 4:12 (AMP)
For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.

Happy 10years wedding anniversary to us"

Rest and Rejoice!

HealthRe: I’m 34, My Sperm Cells Are Dead, And Now I Can’t Have Kids — Nigeria Man Open Up by igatit: 4:10pm On Jun 08, 2025
While there's no single "miracle" natural remedy for dead sperm cells, focusing on improving overall sperm health and well-being can help increase the number of viable sperm and improve sperm quality. This involves lifestyle changes and dietary adjustments.
Lifestyle Factors to Improve Sperm Health:

Manage Stress:
Chronic stress can negatively impact sperm production, so incorporating relaxation techniques like meditation or yoga can be
beneficial.

Prioritize Sleep:
Adequate sleep is crucial for overall health, including sperm quality. Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep per night.

Maintain a Healthy Weight:
Obesity can negatively impact sperm count and motility.

Limit Alcohol and Tobacco:
Excessive alcohol consumption and smoking can damage sperm cells and reduce their motility.

Avoid Exposure to Contaminants:
Limit exposure to environmental toxins and chemicals, as they can negatively affect sperm production.

Keep Testicles Cool:
The best temperature for sperm production is slightly cooler than body temperature. Avoid hot baths, saunas, and wearing tight clothing.

Exercise Regularly:
Regular exercise, especially aerobic exercise, can improve overall health and potentially sperm quality.

Dietary Changes for Improved Sperm Health:

Eat a Balanced Diet:
Focus on a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats.

Include Antioxidant-Rich Foods:
Antioxidants like Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and selenium help protect sperm from damage.

Consume Fish and Seafood:
Omega-3 fatty acids in fish may improve sperm motility and quality.

Eat Walnuts:
Studies have shown that consuming walnuts can improve sperm count and motility.

Consider Supplements:
Some supplements, like Vitamin D and selenium, may also help improve sperm quality. However, it's important to consult with a doctor before taking supplements.

Important Considerations:

Consult with a Doctor:
If you're concerned about low sperm count or motility, it's important to consult with a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

Don't Rely Solely on Natural Remedies:
Natural remedies can be helpful, but they may not be sufficient on their own. Medical interventions like medications or assisted reproductive technologies (ART) may be necessary in some cases.

Be Patient:
Improving sperm health takes time and consistency. It's important to be patient and persistent with lifestyle changes and dietary adjustments.
