No major Nigerian business survives after the founder passes away. The offsprings might have graduated from the best schools around the world by privilege but do not possess the requisite drive to keep such corporations afloat.

Wait until the Otedolas and Adenugas take over their fathers' businesses, they will be struck off Forbes' list overnight.

Education › Re: Is Fluency In English Not Really A Measure Of Intelligence? by InvertedHammer: 12:34pm On Dec 19, 2018

Bad command of English after 16years (6-6-4) is a pointer that the student is not very smart. However, a good command of English is not a measure of intelligence. There are people who talk the talk and people who walk the walk. Both groups are equally intelligent in their own ways.

If you know anything about security, next time you see those armed guards moving with "oga", you will know that what you see are sitting ducks.

5 personnel crammed inside a Hilux van cannot return fire if attacked. They are there for "gragra" for ordinary road users.

Rule 1: No woman (except a wife, mother or relations) deserves to be given money by any man. Any values such strangers bring to the table are expendable.

Only give out of the abundance of your heart. Love is not a commodity to be traded for cash. You are only one in many men in her life she can extort. Men who understand live happily ever after while the naysayers always have to grapple with heartbreak.

How a rule that was succinctly given to the Jews in relation to God and their tribes became a rule of extortion in far away Nigeria beats me.

Who are the Levites? If you like sell your houses and give to the Adeboye and Oyedepo of this world, it does not guarantee salvation. Kneel down and talk to your God if need be. There is nothing special about those charlatans. They eat, poop and wear their trousers one leg at a time like all humans. They will be food for termites as well.

Christianity Etc › Re: Why Don't Pastors Preach About PAUPER'S TITHE As Prescribed By Scriptures? by InvertedHammer: 6:29pm On Dec 16, 2018
JeromeBlack:
I'm sure many people reading this have never heard of "pauper's tithe" or "poor tithe". I have gone through many sermons both online and in real life but I have never heard any Nigerian pastor explain this concept.

So, what is pauper's tithe?
The pauper's tithe, (Hebrew: מַעְשַׂר עָנִי‬ ma'sar ani), Maseer ani, is a hebrew word taken from the old testament that refers to the tithe that is reserved for the levites and the poor (widows, orphans beggars).

This can be seen in the book of Deuteronomy-

(Deuteronomy 14:28)
At the end of three years you shall bring forth all the tithe of your produce in that year, and shall lay it up inside your gates; And the Levite, because he has no part nor inheritance with you, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are inside your gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.”

(Deuteronomy 26:12)
When you have finished tithing all the tithes of your produce in the third year, the year of the tithe, you shall give them to the Levite, the stranger, the orphan, and the widow, so that they can eat to satiety in your cities.


In modern times, Orthodox Jews give a tenth of their income to charity. Those in Isreal give some of their harvest to the poor. In traditional practice, this pauper's tithe was the third tithe. The first two had to do with church. In modern times, tithing to the poor/charity is more common among jews since there is disagreement to who is a true levite/descendant of levites.


I just want to really ask why Nigerian pastors do not preach about this poor man's tithe? Is it because they are so engrossed in filling their pockets?

Only morons refuse to see churches for the social organizations that they are. They believe that it is a place they can buy salvation. But the pastors know better which is why they are securing their heaven here on Earth.

Why would someone stand in the middle of a stream and be thirsty?

It sounds crazy. Right?

How then do you expect a "self-annointed" man of God to be in Nigeria and not milk the poor?

It sounds equally crazy.

No government can get rid of pastors (local scammers: promise heaven with a fictitious picture and doctrines to extract money from victims) or yahoo guys (international scammers: promise love with fictitious pictures online to extract money from victims). The modus operandi are the same: Fake promises for monetary gains. Scamming is a lucrative industry that supports the economy of Nigeria in one way or the other.

/
The debate moderator is a mediocre just like anything Nigeria. In serious nations, they research the candidates, their speeches, etc and use such to ask them questions during debates. The many lies of Buhari's people would have been exposed. Heck! They could even had asked Obi about his one watch and houses brouhaha.

The central theme ought to be: To know why the VP feels like they deserve another term while the onus is on others to prove otherwise. Instead what they gave sounded like a secondary school debate.

I hope the Presidential debate will be organized better and centered on key issues: Corruption, electricity, employment, education, agriculture, technology, failed promises, certificates, etc. Asking debaters same old boring questions to afford them the opportunity to throw out fictitious numbers is a collosal waste of everyone's time.

To those asking for Presidential debate. Why? Would anyone understand what Buhari will be mumbling? It has better come with closed captioning done by an educated Fulani who can translate for mortals like us.

CHECKED: False. According to CBN,

CLAIM BY OBI: To bring out goods from Apapa cost more than it takes to bring goods from Europe

So the fellows at The Cable do not understand the difference between African vs Intra-African trade?

CBN is not a good source for data. Nigerian institutions can cook data out of their rear ends. Ask NNPC how much crude oil is extracted daily in Nigeria.

There is no tax threshold on SMEs. Nigerians should be smart enough to know that there are good deeds on papers that government fails to implement. Eg. Bail is free, no police check points on the expressway, etc. Multiple taxations on Federal, state and local government levels are still enforced.

Yes. Try moving a container out of Apapa. They have started offloading inside to cut costs because that stretch of Federal road is very bad. N450k to move a container from Wharf to a distance of less than 3 miles? That's more than the cost/mile to move a container from Europe to Lagos. Of course the road was bad when PDP was there. But why run on CHANGE in status quo when your only solution is blame and excuses? PMB was voted in to correct the rot called PDP as led by GEJ.

The question is: If PMB's government is doing all that Osibanjo claimed, how come their is no visible improvement in the economy? It is either the solutions they implement are ineffective/inefficient or he has learned well from Lai Mohammed. I will go with both.

NB: I really wish that PMB wins the second term. Nigerians love to learn the hard way and I enjoy watching them learn. Am I a saddist?

/*
The people I weep for are the ones who arbitrarily assign a role model to anyone who becomes wealthy. People believe in "do as I say and not as I do". Some of the old layers who used Linda nwa Ikeji as excuses have been left to rot. Who is deceiving who? The delight on her face is priceless.

Of course, Linda is not engaged. The moment she found out that she is pregnant, they cooked up that story preparatory to this bigger news to avoid the inherent scandal of a gossip queen considering that she preached celibacy to her gullible followers. If you are waiting for Linda Ikeji's wedding, you may have to wait forever. It ain't going to happen. The next news will be how she broke off the engagement using feminism as an excuse. Then her gullible followers will swallow the nonsense too.
