OcholaKings:


Thanks man, are u in the field?

aren't we all?...

I'm not professionally

But I am by my faith

Stay well

Yes

For the guy above me dont make a mockery of the call of pastorship (shepherding)
There are fake pastors just as they are fake lawyers, doctors, teachers and mechanics

Ednut you won't tell a man to rub grease on his hands and overall, hold spanner and screwdriver, park a few old cars with open bonnet then boom he don hammer?

Please respect the Christian leadership, terms and faith
I won't say so about another religion

Counselling is a fantastic career op, go for it, but you need emotional strength, maturity and thick skin
You will hear things and you must be wise to direct the person aright
God help us

LUGBE:
May God help us

Amen

You guys are really lucky my brother....

That's a Jigawa spiting cobra and it's venom is more potent than that of a black mamba.

Just one bite can send you to the great beyond in less than 20minutes.

No its not Jigawa it's Dutse and Gongola

It looks really long

Of all the things bothering Nigeria, the mods always seem to push snake stories to the front

Maybe it's to divert attention, ease tension and ...

gowonmaharajah:
why do Nigerians badmouth Nigeria?

It's a good question

And what is worse, these people will fight and troll anyone/foreigner who tries to also badmouth Nigeria.

Words have power, the Americans keep saying God's own country, big brother, greatest in the world and the likes
Whereas there are numerous countries, some small, some bigger that the US which are by far better

People die daily from gun violence, accidents, hate crimes, assassinations, sicknesses and the likes but they don't blow it in the news. But Nigerians we concentrate so much on our weaknesses.

As an aside. Let me use my experience. I was to attend a wedding but I'd other rough places I needed to go to before the wedding. I'd to dress down a little. Worse my shoe spoilt as I stepped out of the car. I'd to use my casual slippers in the car. Do you know my Co invitees ignored from top to ankle and focused down at my footwear. I laughed. I said humans! We won't appreciate the good side and things in order but would look for little errors, issues or setbacks and blow it up out of proportion. That's why if I'm conversing with someone- words or chats I ignore errors in the language as long as there is communication. It helps to keep the flow and respect people instead of belittling or embarrassing them "unnecessarily." But a few people will leave the substance of the discussion and focus on the undotted "i" and uncrossed "t"

Now back to NTA, NTA in focusing on these festivals and ancient programmes is making a little attempt to keep the country patriotic, sane and 'limited.'

Patriotic- many of us won't have known of the fishing activities in Borno if not for the festival feature on NTA
Sane- too much bad news and political tension can cause emotional and psychological insanity, lead to paranoia and depression
Limited- NTA limits it's audience to only the government's perspective and good side. They don't do all round broadcasting and don't thrive for competition in getting licenses to air sports, music, political debates, competitions or entertaining programmes or sitcoms that draw people and families to the TV.

NTA like America is helping to polish the image of Nigeria, whitewash it, apply make up, portray a fake, deceitful, lying situation of Nigeria and save the face of government

Kestolove:
i only watch nta once in a week and thats on sunday, I watch ntanewsline after that till another Sunday again..wetin I won do with Nta wey channelstv dey, Tvc, ariseTv, BBC, CNN?

I can't believe it! I thought I was the only one? My TV only comes on on Sundays for newsline. I manage to watch the news part from 9pm. But by 10.30 I'm already standing by my TV to turn it off

I've not subscribed for a while cause my movements are unpredictable, I can travel any time so the sub doesn't waste, and I do more of Internet streaming, YouTube and watch movies from friends and family.

But I can't forget or diss NTA

Many pre-indomie generation people like me had only NTA and our state's channel to help us.
We learnt a lot from NTA and enjoyed great entertainment. It's just a pity many things are retrogressing.

But by the power of the words of mouth, I ask life, effectiveness, efficiency and productivity to come upon NTA and in fact Nigeria as a whole, in Jesus name, amen

Happy birthday sir

I won't forget in a hurry the lovely time I had at Jogor centre at Mount Zion Movies all night programme

I was happy to greet him and his wife

God bless you sir and your family and your company and ministry in Jesus name, amen

Movies and music go a long way, thats why I feel sorry for contemporary musicians and filmmakers who are making terrible products, posterity will tell.

To imagine I watched aro meta in a state far away from the West in the 90s as one of the first indigenous Christian movies produced! Hah oga Mike you try, you and your crew God bless you all

No sir they will only select and give you to endorse.

Please which state do you know that they have fair local government polls?

Most states have sweeping results at the polls

How can all LGAs just vote the same party the governor belongs to

What kind of coincidence is that

See Kano with over 40 LGAs... all APC or Enugu all PDP

Congratulations to the trio

This is very good news

I celebrate with the families

My lovely Ngwo...

Good news all the way

Step busstop

With respect to his excellency Prof Jerry Gana one time presidential aspirant, he has no political clout or weight and more so he has not brought much to his people like Generals Gowon, Danjuma, Kefas, late Badeh and other middle belt politicians like Senator David Mark who have been in places of authority and power and influence to help their people.

In my humble opinion there is no difference between APC and PDP. They are both incapable of good governance and a waste of time for good meaning Nigerians. Many who wished for a better Nigeria but didn't see it before they died would be disappointed with both parties.

I pray to God for me and like minded patriots, that we would see a good Nigeria or live in another country which is good and would treat us right even as we transfer our hardwork, good will and patriotism to them.

may he rest in peace.
This man was faithful and loyal to his wife and family and their throne

I heard he gave up smoking because of Queen Elizabeth

He'd be missed by those who loved him

Condolence to them all

We no get light oh

Cococandy, Ishilove, Poccahontas and co

1. That Christians say that Jesus is the only way, truth and life doesn't mean we are saying those who don't believe this are doomed. This is a topic for another day.
Our belief is based on the word of God that's why we are Christians. You can't be a Christian and not agree with the word of God? That means your claim to be a Christian is on a faulty Word, premise or doctrine.

2. If you truly like what you read about Jesus and that since you were born into a Christian home, you've chosen to remain one then accept it fully. Bisi Alimi was probably born into a Muslim or Christian home, I don't know, but he doesn't believe in either presently. Maybe cause neither supports homosexu.ality

3. Christianity is not in competition with anyone or faith. There's no christianisation agenda. When they built schools and hospitals and others, they didn't force their faith down anyone's belief. Read about Holy Arousa, Qua Iboe and establishment of schools in the north. There is a Christian message and you take it or leave it. Anyone forced into Christianity can never please God, for without faith you can't please God. It's a personal conviction. That's why it's common among the Yorubas and a few other tribes to see in one family - Cele, Muslim, Catholic, Winners, Deeper life and Olumba Olumba... they all choose their personal paths

4. Christianity is against the meaning and position of all the letters making up the LGBTQI+ There's no one among them that is condoned or tolerated by God. God didn't make them so. God made them man and woman.

5. Further to this Christianity is against fornication, adultery, paedophilia, sodomy, incest, BDSM, and all their extended families and in laws. No room for them. God doesn't weigh adultery as being lighter than homosexu.ality or paedophilia. They are all sexual sins.

6. Furthermore, se.x between married couples is lawful but not all se.x between them are permissible. The issue of ana.l and or.al sex which is common among gay.s is wrong. This also applies to heterosexuals who engage in them, be them married or not. This is story for another day. I'll tell you why, because I've heard "Christian" marriage counsellors say once married, couples can do whatever "karma sutra" tells them! What abnormally. Karma sutra that is an Indian god abi goddess how does it relate to the Christian faith or marriage practise among Christians. So in the name of marriage a woman can tie her husbands neck with chain or the man use wipe because they want to get kinky and spark up their 'love' abi 'married' life... ewww BDSM and real scars and pain and no senselessness... kinky

7. LGBTQI and all their additional alphabets is a pride movement like KKK and not a civil rights movement as was the case of Mandela, Martin Luther king jnr or Malcolm X. Pride movements are rebellious movements. They are hydra headed monsters that give birth to more demons. Whether neo-nazi, white supremacists or boko haram - they are all rebellious movements. LGBT will eventually lead to agitation for siblings to marry, mother to marry son or father to marry cat (ands it has already started) or lowering the ages of consent for se.x.
yes it was on NL fp that a report showed that when a man was caught with a girl, the girl said she liked it and she asked for it. Her consent as a minor doesn't make it right. Age for consent is 18 years in many countries. Consent doesn't approve homosexu.ality and disapprove paedophilia they are both aberrations, mental abnormalities so says their mental health textbooks and common sense.
When our Lady Park refused to sit in the back of the bus during the civil rights movements, it was not rebellion but assertion of a LAW REMOVING SEGREGATION THAT HAD BEEN PASSED. She was merely enforcing it. It's just like walking on a zebra crossing even if cars refuse to stop. Person fit die, but na your right. That's why the Bible says wisdom is profitable to instruct.

8. This brings me to the tolerance and misguided tag of homophobia by people like Poccahontas who run with it. Wisdom is profitable to instruct. I dey Nigeria, when I go Canada I go know how I wan waka for street if I see 2 grown men or women kissing. It's their law and they have been given the right, but is it right? If I kick against them I'd be accused of being a law breaker and trampling on their rights. That's where wisdom comes in. Like the LGBTQI which have gone through legislation and court judgments, those of us who kick against homosexu.ality should do so by the law backed with prayers and fasting. We must support same sex prohibition laws as was passed by GEJ.
Martin Luther King and Mandela and even Ghandi never used violence, hatred or lewd talks to fight the enemies. I can never support killing, abusing or victimising homosexuals. I won't let them into my business or be in theirs doesn't mean I discriminate, it's me exercising my choice. Just like my biological uncle whose policy is not to employ relations. Mind you the guy na billionaire. His choice... tolerating homosexuals is not accepting them or advocating for their rights. It's doing what Jesus will do. When Jesus met the adulterous woman He didn't stone as He was sinless, but told her to go and sin no more. Not wanting to be with them is not homophobia we no dey fear them, phobia na fear na awon woke people. It's us not wanting to be unequally yoked. Trust me there are many Christians who cut off from adulterous, fornicating and paedophilic people when they find out their status!

9. Finally for now I've stayed in Hamdala Hotels way back in the 90s and I saw Koran, I didn't leave. I have stayed in a hotel in Calabar (I don forget the name), I saw Bible. I wanted to leave the room. Why? Because the previous lodger must have been a chimney. The smell of cigarette was intense. Look at BBN house na, no be Mercy and Ike they read bible under duvet? I no watch am oh but na for highlights NL dish give people like me wey no fit watch such. So Bible, book of Mormon, Awake, Daily manna, rhapsody or Koran being in a room doesn't automatically convert somebody. God does in His own way and time.

We all have our prejudices and beliefs.
I'm prejudiced against tribalism, assassination, corruption, oppression and sexual immorality but I can never hate the persons. As long as they have life, they have hope of salvation.
I've my belief, I'm a Christian, not a fanatic, not denominational or confrontational, but I do hold the teachings of the Bible absolute. I'm aware that translations have evolved and adulterated the Word but God has helped us in knowing the truth.
This truth has set me free for this life and assured me with a promise of the life to come- eternity with Christ Jesus. A number of NLders have died with or without our knowing. Some we stop seeing their comments. At that point, it won't matter what naptu, lala, izzou, righteousness, jesusjnr, fati, zzor, slaw or manna said. It will be you and your fate. With this reality why should I be chained by arguments and debates by NLders who are also on their own pilgrimage through this life. I just pray that we all here be counted among the saints, amen

Seun warn your mods on the kind of topics they push to the greater readership on front page.
What's the meaning of this nasty topic?
These are the fake and malicious people masquerading and pretending to be Christians in their vain attempt to ridicule the Body of Christ and stand against the Kingdom of God.
It is offensive to we Christians.
I'd be also upset if this happened in any other faith.
If it's in Hinduism or Buddhism it will be equally offensive as it stands to ridicule.

Farting is a natural consequence of passing gas in the process of the digestive system.

Please let's respect people's faiths.

If someone is using the Nok terracotta in a demeaning way we would rise up against them.
If someone is desecrates the Osogbo groove many will rise against it.
If someone calls the adire or kente materials ugly we will rise against them.

There is a limit to "everyone is entitled to his opinion."

If you don't agree, will one be entitled to abuse or curse you or your relatives or children because he or she is entitled to his opinion, freedom of speech or right as an adult?

Please let's all be guided. Mods, Seun and the op

Meanwhile happy Easter to everyone

MansoryMX:



The former deputy CBN Governor said exactly same. If I run overseas, who will fight and protect my loved ones, my wonderful parent, my friends, my world and everything I have known since I walk this earth? Bro do not think South south are chicken hearted people! We have the sea and i believe a lot of tools is being brought into the country as we speak. I rather fight and die than watch foreigners descend on everything I loved! For now it may seems they can descend on us and annihilate us from the surface of this earth just because our Governors are asslicking one Nigeria and the Constitution and amalgamation of this country together as one body, the moment they declare full counter on us, everything will seize to exist and just then it will kill or be killed!

There is no country that can take we the innocent Nigerians.
We are many.
Imagine we leave this country and the Fulanis or whoever takes over our lands (while we are still alive oh, cause they no dey die for property matter), we would not have achieved anything by running, except saving our lives.
But sometimes in saving our lives we lose it.
Even when some people stand up and wade these intruders off, they only go back to reinforce and return even deadlier.
It's heartbreaking that scores die every day from unprovoked killings just because some militant group is doing pre-war attacks.

I doubt anyone here in NL saw or was fully aware during the civil war.
Those who were in the north and west didn't feel the heat since the east was the place attacked and the south was the launching ground/battle field- Asaba, Calabar and co

I pray we don't see war.
Instead I pray the present crop of political leaders at federal and state levels just leave the scene permanently and new leaders with dedication, integrity, plan, honesty, courage and patriotism take over.

Anyone not pushing for these qualities in a leader is only asking for the vicious cycle.

If voting for an Igbo person will make him appoint and develop only his side, I'd rather not vote or vote Sowore and that says a lot.

Nobody has been able to tell us why there are more checkpoints in the East than in any other part of Nigeria.
When I used to travel to the East a lot between 2005 - 2010 there were so many that I even dared recording with my phone then. I was even seen by one police man but our bus was already moving away.

Now when I did Zaria - Funtua and Kano - Abuja, around 2008 - 2009 I didn't notice police checkpoints there were almost non-existent

The way police harass in PH, Benin, Warri or places like Awka, you'd wonder if it's the same police that you'll never see harassing those up north.

For the west it's in between. Some place the police are civil and not many, like from Ekiti - Abuja via Akungba, Lampese and Okene, at least around 2015 - 2017. Also from Ore - Ikirun, you hardly see police harassing buses.

Even within Lagos I stand to be corrected, I hardly see police checkpoints

I don't support killing of policemen. They are not all bad and the bad ones should face the law. Extra judicial killing of bad police puts the killers on the same level with the bad police they set out to kill.

I recently helped a set of police jump-start their official vehicle and they were surprised cause I saw them and volunteered. They don't seem to receive good or good wishes from the public often. I once represented a Charity Group in my area and walked into the station and gave cash support to the police station via their senior officer.

My relations who were police people died in duty- Maiduguri and Benin, but I don't judge them evil. They have children. Those police who have cruelly cut down the lives of innocent Nigerians and extra judicially killed the guilty ones deserve judgement by the law courts (not mere guard room) and then mercy from God for their souls.

I went to observe the EndSARS tribunal in the state where I am now and I was really sad hearing all the atrocities police people have done arrogantly and deliberately on poor citizens over the years- killing, maiming, raping, framing and stealing from them. It was pathetic. What was more pathetic was the police lawyer I saw there trying to justify the police. In my mind I was like must he talk

This is serious
I pray the pilots fate will be known and positive

It may be mere shoes
But buying or desiring one pair is you contributing to the finance and advancement of the kingdom of darkness.
The devil has a united kingdom of evil people and demons, fallen angels.
Our Lord Jesus, whose dying for our sins to destroy the works of Satan we celebrate today warned us.
He said he who has ears let him hear.
How can beelzebug be divided against itself?
The kingdom of Satan requires manpower and finances and dedication like every other organisation or organised crimes.
When we play their songs,
love their actors,
relish their quotes,
excuse their marketing strategies,
trend their stories
elongate their threads,
talk about them,
keep up with them,
follow them as fans,
desire to belong to them,
read their books and materials,
hinge your life on their devices,
hate others because of them,
ridicule the Holy Bible to please them,
blaspheme the Holy name of God to feel among,
treat with levity God's instructions to look woke,
wear their designs,
market their products and
tolerate their nuances
we SUBTLY and INDIRECTLY support their kingdom

Watch And Pray

Not just for eternal life but for your everyday living.

My dear brethren watch and pray please I beg you.
Do not in any way gum body to the things of Satan oh.
There is no middle ground, you are either marked with the seal of God unto salvation and eternal life
Or
Marked with the sign of the beast, the devil.

No middle oh.

It's today oh, take the decision this minute oh I beg. Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and renounce Satan

I've a thought
The People from the north are travelling all over Nigeria and are likely to register to vote in Ebonyi, Ondo, Taraba, Edo, Ogun and all around the country.
The president to be needs 2/3 majority vote from around the country.
If the north decides to unanimously vote for their brother, they can win due to their number, underage voting, fictitious number and herd mentality or bandwagon approach to things that fulfil their prophecy of born to rule.
But the constitution says 2/3 so they are going to fix that by being in the southern parts so they can register and vote here to get their 2/3.
Just a thought.
One thing every other Nigerian can learn from and about the north is their sagacity, political alertness, chess mentality and transistor radio listening. They know politics, forget. Kudos to them. Bad as e be they are good at that.

I pray Nigerians be at peace with each other and/or embrace reality

9jaRealist:


Nobody needs to do anything, but....

Some of them need NT appearances to qualify for work permit abroad...
It also helps to market oneself if one can add “full international” to one’s CV...
And of course if they make it to the WC, that’s the biggest SHOP WINDOW there is!

Overall, it’s generally a win-win-win for everyone involved!
>

I agree with you, but...

Many people are still leaving Nigeria PERMANENTLY in droves

Professionals, artisans, talents, technocrats, sports people, entertainers and students

My dear friend is going at the end of this month

I need help in understanding something about Ministries...
I beg is Amaechi not TRANSPORTATION minister
Why focus only on railways since 2015 to 2023

I can't understand

Besides aviation which has its own minister

What are Amaechi and Saraki doing about waterways, roadways, kekeways, okadaways and other modes of transportation?

Whereas road transport system is in 100% of Nigeria and policies can affect the entire country,
Railway system affects and benefits only a small part of the entire country.

So at the end of his tenure Rotimi and Gbemi would have affected the lives of very few Nigerians

Meanwhile
Join me to pray against the third next level column, it is serious. Many things are already checked on that list. For instance bread in N500 and cement is over 4k

Thank God

Meanwhile let's pray against this next level column

There's no country that can take us all, not even Canada oh

Nigeria is what we have got

Let's save it I beg

May the super eagles win

See how patriotic they are

They didn't have to come play for Nigeria, they are rich, popular and engaged in clubs, but they came back

houseontherock:

The Northern oligarchs will do anything to ensure the South doesn't grow healthy food in fertile farmlands that need little or no fertilizer boost, they prefer to feed the healthy crops to their cows while the rest of the country (including them) eat their chemical-laden, 'non-export quality' crops

But this is terrible now
We have .... SON, ministry of agric and others who are to check quality of what we consume now

My goodness see the fine looking mango I ate yesterday the taste was not like what I grew up eating. I don't know what is happening but we are not eating too quality foodstuffs oh not to mention processed food like spaghetti, indomie, minerals, sardine and all

May God help us

With all those chemicals and fertilisers
May God save us and bless us with fresh foods and fruits and water
Cause honestly what we are eating and drinking eh

thank God for the gift of today and the safety through the night.

I heartily congratulate and celebrate with one of our own Wally Adeyemo on his new appointment.
May he represent himself, his immediate family, his new country and his fatherland well in Jesus name, amen.

This is fantastic news

and Nigerian workers are getting only Friday and Monday.
They can't travel
If they do they'll have to travel Friday and start returning Sunday or Monday so what's the use

moneyissweet:
Yes, we have two in Nigeria.

One is at sambisa Forest and the other new one our darling daddy recently commissioned is Bornu state.

I'd have said stale, dry or some other thing you intended in your post, but hey I can't be like you...
Positive energy, joy and peace is what I'm about and what I wish everyone

I look forward to a time Sambisa and Borno will get back their glories, peace and safety and guess what? I'll visit them by God's grace. Question is, would you be bold enough to accompany me

Freemasonry:

The only place I know you can race in Nigeria is on your PlayStation, or in your mind

So which one is it going to be?

Funny thing is that for game I no dey try but for real life, my dear I dey try, in fact I dey do well, ocean, all.
Tactical driving and manoeuvring is one thing Papa God bless me with

As for my mind, i no fit drive for mind oh, no think I dey think with am

Good morning neighbours

Congrats Ugo

I'm very interested in formula 1 oh

Does anyone know any place racing is done in Nigeria... and of cause whether I fit race?

It's a dangerous sport but exhilarating

I hardly hear of mass shootings in other countries
America should check their gun use and mental health of their citizens

It's not a bad day for the killer
But a bad day for the victims and their families
