Corruption

OLAADEGBU:
Who has the best answer for Israel Adesanya on nairaland? He needs help.

His parents and teachers failed him, they had no "teacher". It's a problem with many young people being told to do the right things without patient explanation. Don't wear this, don't do this, just believe this doesn't cut it for the greater percentage. Their mode of education and instruction makes them to think critically and creatively, so you don't just shove them away. They will go someplace else for 'answers'.

FRANCISTOWN:
Okay guys!

There are three beggars that I always see on my way to work.

Two of the three are amputees while the third one is blind.

My heart breaks whenever I see them every morning on my way to work.

I always felt like having a supernatural power that can heal them and make them whole.

I don't even have enough money to help them get artificial limbs.

However, I've heard some people say "What God cannot do, does not exist." And "He is a miracle working God"

Please I'd like anyone to recommend where I can bring these people to also experience this great power
That "changed people's genotype"
"Cured HIV"
"Cured last stage Cancer" e.t.c

I hereby call upon all the theists on NL, people who believe in god, supernatural and all.

People who believe in witches and wizards.

I don't care any supernatural power. Whoever can lead me to where these people can be healed will receive an instant payment of ₦50k once these people are healed and their missing parts reinvigorated.

I'll tell my lawyer to prepare a document to back up the contract of agreement, and you can come with your lawyer as well.

We'll pay whatever amount the spiritualist or the healer or the pastor or the herbalist or the sheikh requests after healing is confirmed. Though I may need some help.

Your job is just to take us to the place. Your transportation, accomodation and feeding is assured aside the ₦50k.

Thanks, I'm hoping to get a favourable response.

i am not the Healer, God is, and no man controls Him. The people you pity can spend eternity with God in Heaven while you the pitier spends eternity in hell if conditions are placed as it may be.
Nonetheless, i don't need your money, thanks. i can easily recommend the deeper life church nearest to you for their monthly healing programmes. Why? Because it's popular and you/they can easily find your way. Also, to a large extent, i can trust that you won't come out with any scandalous stories like someone tried to ask you for money or fake a miracle or slammed your friends on the floor trying to heal them. Finally, it's a church that believes in divine healing and miracles and I know someone that knows someone that has been healed there .

Kwankwaso seems to be a talkative.

Dead on arrival, it seems that the DSS are not serious.

LordReed:
Then harming someone is not universally wrong. If there is any situation in which something you would have said to be morally wrong turns out to be morally right then that action cannot be UNIVERSALLY morally wrong. If I save your life by lying am I morally wrong?

You and other haters of God keep hating and attacking God on this premise that you are standing on. Hypocrite.

LordReed:
No according to you rape can be morally good if your god says it is morally good,

God can't say sin is morally good, duh.

i don't like Wike, but Ameachi and the whole Rivers APC showed some very bad things to the Tinubu campaign. It'll be difficult for Tinubu to work with them. Ameachi did very well as a minister(compared to others) but his loyalty waned seriously.

Realdon1:
U go cry later. Not business as usual.
Masses have risen

Why on earth should i cry over a politician. My life is too important and engaged for such.

The definition of FRUITLESS can be found here.

LordReed:
Why does the god get that definition? How do you know the god is uncreated?

Ever heard of "Eternal", are you fellows actually becoming dumber by the week or what?

FreedomfromtheT:
You can go ahead and fire your guns as it were.
Let's see if God will allow the bullets to touch His anointed and chosen ones.

i don't have such interest, i am a man of peace.

lexy2014:
You didn't answer my questions.

Did the bill he signed originate from him?

Is he the first nigerian president to sign a bill into law?

No, it doesn't have to. He can refuse to sign it also. Acknowledge and celebrate the fact that he signed it. Without his signing, it will remain dead.

When did signing a bill into law warrant ass licking as if we have never seen it before in history?

Celebrating the speed and progress of Nigeria is not ass licking. Two weeks in government is too short for anyone to be labelled as ass licking, or perhaps you don't know what you are talking about. The Electricity Act 2023 is exciting, you should familiarise yourself with it instead of sulking in negativity. This is beautiful for renewable energy. Bottlenecks to Nigeria's power generation has been broken. It empower states, companies, and individuals to generate, transmit and distribute electricity. If you are sad about this, it is no fault of mine.

FreedomfromtheT:
How do you mean sir?

You brought your church to a firing squad for target practice as it were.

xpressionx:
You keep sounding stupid.

If LP sued INEC,is that not a good reason to allow the scrutiny?

Your ignorance is alarming. It's beyond my capacity brother.

lexy2014:
Did the bill he signed originate from him? Is he the first nigerian president to sign a bill into law? When did signing a bill into law warrant ass licking as if we have never seen it before in history?

Did he sign it or he didn't sign it? You obviously don't know the impact and magnitude of the bill.
What will you do if he leaves the bill on his desk unread and unsigned like a drunk for 3 years? There are so many people in the world that their papers, applications and requests are waiting for someone to sign/approve. As we say, they sat on it. Please learn to appreciate good and right things, even the Holy Book says so.

xpressionx:
Is INEC a branch of APC?

As an impartial umpire, is the best thing not to allow your books to be checked and scrutinised to prove that you ate not biased?

Or is there something INEC is not telling us?

You keep asking this dull question. LP sued INEC, Tinubu and APC. Meaning that the three bodies or persons have legal counsel defending them against LP's suit. You should visit court sometime to know how legal proceedings work, or at least watch film.

Wow. This is a big step in the right direction. Many bottlenecks removed in power generation. Tinubu don turn star boy oh, just ticking all the right boxes per day.
No wonder e dey shout Emilokan.

Cekpo34:
Data from Think Tanks such as, Pew Research, shows that more Nigerians, especially the youths, are becoming atheists and agnostics as day passes by . However, it is not clear why this demography is growing. The dominant explanation has been the secularism thesis which assumes that the movement from the primitive sacred to modern secular is driven by science.

But Nigeria, in my opinion, is yet to attain the Comptian positive or scientific age for obvious reasons. Thus, secularism may not sufficiently explain the rising number of nonbelievers in Nigeria.

BIG QUESTIONS FOR ATHEISTS AND AGNOSTICS

1) How did you become a #NigerianAtheist or agnostic?

2) Where and when did it happen?

3) Why do you think that decision is, presently, justified?

Please share your story and enlighten others.

Caveat: your response will provide primary data for an ongoing research. You, through your moniker, will be acknowledged.

The demography must grow for three/four major reasons. 3-4 because two of them are branches of one.

1. Scriptural/Prophetic fulfilment: The Bible is clearly littered with prophecies in this direction. Love for God will wax cold and evil people will become more and more. Broad is the way leading to damnation/perdition. That road according to the Bible is a road of unbelief and neglect. So it's not strange at all to a serious reader of the Bible.

2. Increase in development technology and knowledge: The average man is selfish and what drives him/her to God most are selfish reasons i.e how God can help answer the questions of life. Like Jesus said, most people seek Him because of bread. The next testimony, favour, help, healing, protection from God. Technology and knowledge supposedly makes things easier and not as mysterious as previously thought.
When you go to, japa or live in a 'developed' country where you don't need to pray for things to get done, demand for God naturally reduces. You are safe from village people, nobody is after your destiny, social security provides food and clothing and even shelter and internet despite ancestral curse. The roads are not death traps, and there is a form of justice for wrong done(saner clime as it were). The same is gradually been experienced in developing countries like Nigeria. The young people have phones and information, they can hustle and make some living, they have many whatsapp doctors and tiktok healthtips. They can study online, create hashtags, do remote work and digital work. They can easily debunk 'stuff' and can seemlesslyu live in a bubble on their phones away from the 'distractions' of reality.

3. False christianity: There is an overdose of false christianity all over. False prophets, false pastors, false apostles, false members. Christianity as people know it continue to fail the society. The bearers of the name are no different if not worse from those they call unbelievers. They are full of scandals, cheating, greed, wickedness, politics and schemes. The church is full of the world and has nothing to distinguish it except the time and building. Youths can see through this, they can see through their hypocrite pastors and relatives.

4. Failure of genuine evangelism: We lost a rare gem in the likes of Reinhard Bonnke. We hardly have evangelists and revivalists today in Nigeria. We have more of pastors who are building their empire, getting more sinners to come regularly to service and making season transfers from one denomination to the other. The genuine salvations are just in trickles, because people are not preaching the true gospel.
These are the issues. They do not stop or change the fact, they are simply the realities on ground.

LordReed:
I think that the challenge by someone to examine my beliefs at the time was what lead me to atheism. When I was still held a belief in a god I was very critical of other competing beliefs. The challenge caused me to examine my beliefs with the same level of critical thinking, lo and behold my beliefs did not hold up to the scrutiny. I think many people are subconsciously aware that their beliefs will wilt under rigorous scrutiny so they try to shield those beliefs.

It happened at a time when things where looking up for me and I had every reason to believe that all the positive outcomes were a result of divine favour. I was in my office and then I decided to apply critical thinking to my beliefs to settle the matter. I emerged from that exercise without belief in a god. It felt weirdly liberating, as if all fear disappeared and an immense relief came over me. And to be candid my life has not changed dramatically except for internally that belief in a god is gone.

I think my lack of faith continues to be justified because many of my previously held beliefs have shown to be easily dispelled during my period of deconstruction. Right now I am pretty much at peace with my lack of faith, it feels way less internally disconcerting and way more internally peacefully not to have those beliefs.

Lolz, how do you expect your belief to hold to the scrutiny of unbelief? Can solid pass as solid on the properties of gas? You put spiritual things in a laboratory to do what again? to deceive yourself. As usual, the fool has defined God in his foolish capacity, God does not fit that definition. Therefore, he foolishly claims that there is no God.

Jail Obi and other ipobic elements taking our misguided youths backward.

The Teleevangelist, hopefully he 'made' Heaven.

KnownUnknown:
Lmao. Forget about sobriety because you really must be insane.



Judging by your responses, you don’t know the meaning of allusion or shenanigans.

i see why you are unknown, you don't know.

KnownUnknown:
So what’s your reason for replying that particular post with the question about biography/autobiography?

How did you reach the conclusion that I think the meaning of allusion is an insult?!

Have you been going to ChatGPT for help?

Hallelujah, you've become sober at last. What a mighty God we serve. You wondered if Jesus and the devil noticed the narrator spying on them and frantically jotting in his notebook or “notescroll”:
Do people whose biographies are written wonder/notice narrators spying on them?

Your usage of "allusion" shows you didn't understand it when you read it.

ChybuzzDD:
''This time, joy is coming. i feel strongly that God has at last heard our prayers for sensible leaders''.

You've already forgot the above statement made by you which triggered the argument??

If you believe God doesn't work with a politician, how then did you believe He gave Nigerians ''sensible leaders''?

I hope you're not getting confused?

You said "The Christian God can't choose a Muslim who has no Christ in himself to rule over his chosen people, and the Muslim God can't choose a Christian who doesn't believe in Mohammed to preside over his people, the muslims"
You brought up the idea of God working with or not working with(i didn't mention God working with or not working with anyone). So kindly give two examples of politicians God works with today and how, thanks.

KnownUnknown:
No, your shenanigans won’t work because you can’t get away with the dishonesty. You don’t get to reply to a post then deny your own response. You are not conversing with your fellow brain addled Christian here.

The only allusion was your”biography/autobiography” response.

Lolz, you had to reply this same post twice? Did you lose your voice or thinking before or chatgpt just responded to help you?
i have not denied my post or response, you can explain where i did so. i asked you a question and then you made your own assertions.
This clown doesn't know the meaning of 'allusion', he thinks it is an insult.

ChybuzzDD:
In all these, you failed to show me where God worked or promised to work with a sinner.

God neither appointed nor worked with Pharaoh, Nebuchadnezzar, Ahab, etc, who were not following his ways.

You actually don't understand anything.

How does God work with a politician? Give two examples of politicians God works with today and how, thanks.

Do a re-election this Saturday, i will vote and support President Tinubu and KShettima again ahead of the clueless liars and thieves Atiku and Obi. Millions of other non-muslims will do same. It is what it is. Everyone has their own personal reasons for their decisions.

ChybuzzDD:
You refused to mention the particular God you're referring to.

The christian God doesn't appoint whosoever he likes. He works only with those whom he calls his children, and who have Christ in them.

According to him, no one comes to him accept through Christ, and the prayer of a sinner(one who has no Christ) is an abomination unto him

Your new Presido doesn't know Christ, and thus, God doesn't know him, and can't work with him.

This is the true christianity you cowards are afraid to practise.

Seems you're a yoruba christian trying to justify your vote for an m-m ticket??

Go read your bible. Read about the Kings of Israel, and you'll find out that God turned away from them whenever they chose a King who didn't ''follow the way of God''.
And this was consistent.
So, why do you think this will change in your own time, even when you believe God is unchangeable?
Hypocrites!

There is only one God, don't get it twisted. Since you resort to the Bible, i'll show you a couple of sentences from there.

Joh 18:36  Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. 

1Ti 6:13  I give thee charge in the sight of God, who quickeneth all things, and before Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate witnessed a good confession;

Phaoah and Nebuchadnezzar were not christians. This is a political appointment, not a church ministry appointment. Thousands of rulers, presidents, kings and emperors all over the world are not christians. You have been scammed by either your pastor or Kanu.

Exo 9:16  And in very deed for this cause have I raised thee up, for to shew in thee my power; and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth.

Dan 5:21  And he was driven from the sons of men; and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.

bentenny:

You expect an exact time or date while consultations are still ongoing?
Only a imp would think that way!
You are not so different from your balablu paymaster despite acclaimed stay on nairaland!
Ohh lord this is so preposterous and at the same time hilarious....now this one is going off tangent and calling out governors list which has absolutely nothing to do with the topic of discus?
And you claim to be ancestor Image?
What is this one even saying?
Not even the unions are opposing subsidy removal but there must be conditions that should be met before subsidy removal!
How is that so hard to comprehend?
I had to laugh so hard at your last drowning comments!
Its like watching a teen getting so agitated!
Please go and eat something before your brain explodes!

Chai what a mess of an ancestor!

President Bola Tinubu(not NLC or any other clown) has directed the National Economic Council (NEC) led by Vice President Kashim Shettima to device an approach and begin the process of working on interventions to mitigate the impact of subsidy removal on the Nigerians. That's how things are done. Not pussyfooting with no known time for the removal of subsidy.
i of course leave you to your epileptic fits at this point as the ipob devil in you is now in open manifestation. i don't discuss with terrorists, enjoy the removed subsidy.
