The return of the god father

One of the richest man in nigeria before the civil war. The 3 richest men then was Dantata, Ojukwu and Ibru.

Ok

War will not benefit both tribes rather our common enemy known as Federal Govt will move in for d spoils.

Warri! The land of gbege. U do anyhow, u go collect person frustration.

Bro I'm totally in support of almost all you've wrote. Just want to point out something I noticed from all your conversations, you keep talking about population of the Urhobo's without saying anything about the amount of crude produced by the land of this teaming population. Urhobos for their population do not produce and have the same oil and gas reserves that the Efik, Ijaws and even Itsekhiri's .
I agree that every ethnic nationality in the region deserve due representation and should get what is rightfully theirs. But it should be based on production/reserves, not population. Population is how the north as been getting more allocation than everyone else and even the blind knows it's unfair. If you want to go on about population, then the Edo's can come up with population talk too now.

The Urhobos have the largest gas reserve in Delta State sha but comes third in crude oil reserve after Itsekiri and Ijaw.

I get excited somehow when peeps criticize Pastor Chris bitterly becos they are actually confirming him to be a true Man of God. If u are a Pastor or a christian and no one is persecuting u, u need to check urself very well.

Hi 24SEVEN, the Urhobos are dominant in Niger-delta. They dominated Old Bendel. They have the largest village in bayelsa(i heard they play active politics in bayelsa too). They dominate in private businesses in rivers state. U wont notice their dominance becos they lack unity.

explorer250:
point of correction. urhobos are not the second largest group in niger delta and are definiitely not up to 5 million. igbo are largest with upto 10 LGA and 7 in rivers and delta plus the ones in other ss states. so igbos in ss should be the ones crying not urhobo or ijaw

Theres no large population of Igbo in South-south but Igbo speaking ethic groups(Igboid). Urhobo is an Edo speaking ethnic group(Edoid). Going by ur logic, if i add up urhobo, isoko, bini,esan,etsako LGA it will be more dan igbo LGA.

This was the man IBB asked that famous question: Where is Anini?

Yea Bill Gates is about to flood Nigeria with "Hybrid Rice".

Big fat lie to claim islam is the fastest growing religion. The gospel started in the Middle-East and it has started returning rapidly to tear down islam strong holds. Of a truth millions are converting to christianity. When a christian converts to muslim he publicizes it becos he is safe but when a muslim converts to christianity he goes under cover to escape wrath from Jihadists.

I wonder how many people u met for explanation of bible verses b4 u joined islam. Bible verses doesnt make sense to a fleshy mindset without illumination from the Holy Spirit or explanation 4rm a teacher. There may be a lie somewhere in ur write-up.

Hi Beckyblanca its not the days dat have problem but who u worship during those days. The Jews were celebrating Pentecost while the Christians were celebrating the grand arrival of the Holy Ghost( Acts 2 ). Let the Pagans worship their Sun god on Sundays while we worship Jehovah. Let the Pagans worship Easther on Easther day while we worship our risen Christ.

If i had the power to see thru the Op life and past deeds i wont be surprised if shes a fornicator too. My point do not generalise.

If u read Luke 15 thru 16 to verse 11 it will give u a better picture. The Pharisees hated d tax collectors and called them sinners yet Jesus dined with them becos he was interested in their salvation. Parables were given to explain Mammon(Wordly riches). Verse 9 simply means IF U USE WORDLY RICHES TO HELP NEEDY PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD, THEY WILL ALSO HELP U IN TIME OF NEED. SECONDLY WHEN U GET TO HEAVEN THEY WILL RECEIVE U INTO EVERLASTING MANSIONS WITH JOY FOR SAVING THEM WHEN THEY WHERE ON EARTH. If u help people with unrighteous or corrupt or material money, u will inherit righteous or incorupt or imaterial money which is true wealth in heaven (Luke 16 : 11 ).

Hi richidinho when u read a bible verse ensure u read it in context by reading d preceeding verses and other related chapters and verses. Matt21: 21 talks about enemity of relatives. The gospel brings strife in families and nations becos some love darkness rather than light (Jn 3: 18-21; 2cor 2: 16-17; 4:2-4 ).

Jesus was a poor carpenter is not scriptural.

It surprises me how a sane person could follow d doctrines of Islam. Most muslims try very hard to please their Allah yet they always feel insecure dat their Allah will grant them Aljana.

Is dat u asamaigho? Good work keeping the beauty alive but if i catch u claim Warri again, i shall tie u up with Serpent to a tree and force Snake soup down ur Oesophagus.

Fine snake.

Hi seggzz this will be my last reply to u on this topic becos u bore me with ur scriptural ignorance. In 2Samuel 21:1-14 there were two Mephibosheths identified. First is Mephibosheth the lame son of Jonathan(2sam4:4; 9:6-13; 19:24-30; 21:7). Secondly is Mephibosheth son of Saul(2sam 21: 8. The second Mephibosheth was the one killed becos he was part of Sauls bloody house dat killed the Gibeonites thereby breaking the agreement dat Israrel had with the Amorites(Gibeonites) in Joshua 9:3, 16-17. As for Numbers 31 i ve explained dat b4 in my first comment. Read it again.

Hey seggzz God passed justice on those seven sinners tru execution by hanging and not as a human burnt sacrifice. The problem with u guys is dat u cant understand a scripture even when its clarity is staring at u.

I know there are so called terrorist dat claim christianity when of a truth they are occultists eg Ku Klux Klan, Jesuits etc but remember these are not christians becos they are not following THE WORD OF GOD(JESUS) teachings and apostles epistles in the NT. But there are christians here on nairaland dat can pull out enough teachings in islam(Mohammed) that promotes terrorism. Now for some of those verses u quoted out of context or misunderstanding: Hosea 6:6 was refering to God prefering israelites showing mercy than sinning then offering burnt sacrifice to cleanse their sins. Requoted in matt9:13. Deut 13:5 was refering to false prophets. Deut 21:22-23 made it clear dat Jesus would be a curse on d cross when he took our curse to save us 4rm the curse. I think am done here aminusanti becos am getting bored with d long debate. I only pray dat people reading will not be misled by the evil doctrine of Muhammed.

otemanuduno:
Funny. They are talking of how she didn't have sex before she was killed. She died a virgin, that's it.

Its funny too how u quote scripture out of context. Judges 11:37 why did his daughter bewail her virginity for 2 months? This fact alone proves that it was not d question of her being offered illegally as a service to God. She was simply to remain a virgin all her days without having her own family. Read verse 34 again. For verse 39 it says "and she knew no man" did it say and she died knowing no man?

otemanuduno:
You can lie
Where did I join the verses together
Anyway, Jephthah did according to what he promised Yahweh.
Now ask, what did Jephthah promise Yahweh

Did u see the verse of scripture dat said "and she knew no man". That cleared d issue of burnt sacrifice becos God doesnt accept burnt sacrifice but a sacrifice of virginity which i explained earlier.

otemanuduno:
Here is it from the bible: Judges 11: 38- 39

38. And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to the vow which he had vowed; and she had not known man.

39. And it was a custom in Israel, that the daughters of Israel went yearly to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year.

– Judges 11:38-39

Now say something else. Thanks.

if someone followed d trick u put up there they would be misled. Why did u merge the verses together? Let me quote exactly how its written in d bible. Judges 11:39 says "AND IT WAS SO AT THE END OF TWO MONTHS THAT SHE RETURNED TO HER FATHER, AND HE CARRIED OUT HIS VOW WITH HER WHICH HE HAD VOWED. SHE KNEW NO MAN. AND IT BECAME A CUSTOM IN ISRAEL. Judges 11:40 says "THAT THE DAUGHTERS OF ISRAEL WENT FOUR DAYS EACH YEAR TO LAMENT THE DAUGHTER OF JEPHTHAH THE GILEADITE.

Hey Otemanuduno, show me where d scripture said her friends went to lament for her becos she "DIED"? I guess u cant dats why u had to quote 4rm a different source and not d bible. Our cycle of arguement will not end if u quote me again.

seggzz:
Check the bolded statements above and read my next statements that follows. The child was actually sacrificed if you are honest and to who? God! I think your god knew Jephthah would surely use his only child as a sacrifice to him(bible god) except you are saying your god is not the all knowing. Why did he choose to take the only child of Jephthah since he knew the event would happened?Did he drink human blood? If No, why waste human blood in vain? of what use did he need the blood? Why not he send goat to first meet him? Why not he do just like Abraham scenario?

we will keep moving in circles until u show me where jephtha sacrificed his daughter to God. I ve already showed u my proof dat she was to remain a virgin in d tabernacle serving God for d rest of her life.

People paid for their sins tru death in OT becos sin hadnt been atoned for dats why God sent his word to die for us. Now God, his word and his spirit reaches out to save d sinful world tru d preaching of the good news. Throughout history christians ve never slaughtered unbelievers but d reverse is the case with islam which came about 600yrs since Lord Jesus ascended back to heaven. As for the issue of 1jn5:7, dat verse of scripture was probably deliberately omitted 4rm those modern bibles to mislead. The trinity is manifested in Gen 1, Jesus is confirmed as God in John 1verse 1 to the end aminusanti

Roman Catholism is responsible for the martyrdom of millions of christians since d dark ages!

aminusanti i ve explained d first question earlier with scriptural proofs. Read my first comment again. The Israelites simply went to take their possession 4rm the murderous Canaanites without attacking any other country and besides they didnt fight to force God down d THROATS OF CANAANITES but for the LAND while Islam has been murdering people all over d world since the time of Mohammed. Israel never attacked Egypt in the bible. The answer to ur last question is in 1John 5: 7. Read it.
