So it was true after all...
She's been vindicated.
She is truly a heroine.

This nation shamed and betrayed us by saying and insisting this incident never took place several times, all because they wanted to seal up the truth. But now, see, at the end, the truth has prevailed.

They were able to deny and defend the lies for 1 year 23 days. But in just one day, the lies were exposed.

The earlier to accept this country is a failed state the better, for if the government can be so full of lies and deception, what does the future then have to hold?

I on my part never believed the Judicial Panel of Inquiry will come out successful knowing the country we are. But this just give me hope about Lagos State that there are still honest people out there, only they're unheard and unknown.

Shame on all those who denied the Lekki Massacre.
Shame on all nairalanders who denied the Lekki Massacre.
Shame on all those who knows the truth but insisted on telling lies about the incident.
Shame on all of you!
Shame shame shame shame!!!

When was the last time we heard a good news in this country?
And when are we going to hear the next good news in this country?

mediclife1987:
Then you don't have that Omoluwabi spirit.

It's our culture, and we're forever proud of it. It is what makes us the most talked about tribe we are today...either for good/bad...

Omoluabi spirit huh?
Igboho is in Benin prison languishing.
Itunu Babalola just died in Cote'Dvoire prison.
Several Yorubas are displaced in Ogun State and their properties taken over.
Insecurity and threat to life increasing in the region and you're telling me about Omoluabi spirit?

Don't provoke me.

Why wasn't Abba Kyari extradited?
Why hasn't Gumi been arrested?

Wasn't Abike Dabiri a Yoruba woman?
Do you think if Itunu Babalola had been from a Northern region, she would have died in that prison?

mediclife1987:
They show love to people who deserve it. Be you Yoruba, Igbo or Hausa.

We don't do the type of brotherly love other tribes do by taking sides with their tribe.

If that's what you were trying to say, that's another super quality trait in disguise

Yea… something like that…
But to me, that's not commendable.

mediclife1987:
And yet people would say Yorubas are the most wicked and tribalistic lots in Nigeria.

Such a shame. Yorubas have suffered in this shithole walahi.

The only thing I do not like in the Yoruba people is that, they're never united. They prefer to show love, loyalty, affection and grace to outsiders and strangers above their own people.

There's nothing wrong in congratulating a winner.
The man hasn't done anything wrong.
This is the kind of mind APC has been ruling with… Hate Them If They Beat You To It.

And none of you even tried to figure what he was saying?

advanceDNA:
This verse you quoted says nothing about the topic..both polygamy and monogamy is a union of male and female only.... So what’s your point??

.don’t get me wrong, I’m not in support of polygamy... but if you are going to use scriptures to drive home a point... do it well..

The issue with some readers is that they don't read properly. And when they read, they don't understand properly.
Check the Bible quote properly.

Hi.

Honestly speaking am really worried, have dated my fiance for sometime now. So we finally decided to tie the knot.
She suggested we do it this year November and I concurred, so we've been saving towards it ever since.

Last 2 months I made my intentions known to her family, that I will like to marry their daughter. Due to the conversations I had With her parents, I told them I wanted it small.. because am not financialy buoyant.

But To my surprise, her dad said I shouldn't worry about it, they are going to support me ( which is most likely Normal)

(They gave me traditional rite's, which I sorted out by myself)

With the traditional right drawing close, last month I learnt from my fiancee..her parents are planning to buy 2 cow for the traditional and white wedding. (I was surprised)

The following week, the hall she choosed for the reception of the white wedding, has already been paid for by her dad which was about 500k excluding the decorations which they also took care of ( even though I opted we could have done the reception in the church)

But my fiancee told me her dad is inviting alot of well-wishers home and abroad to come celebrate with us.both his fellow staffs and all.

* I bought 2 bag of rice and groundnut oils

* We paid for the cakes

* We paid for drinks

* We sorted things out (invitation cards, pre shoot photos)

But was surprised 2 days to the traditional marriage, more expensive drinks were rolling in.

On the d day of the white wedding, I realised, they cooked more than 8 bags of rice ( coconut, jollof, banga and fried) meats were surplused.
Alot of people came from her family's, while my own families were just there.. they did get the message.

Someone even said it to my mom face. THAT THIS GIRL PAPA TRY O.








please, I don't want to sound like am a bad person or I don't know good.
Offcus I appreciate her parents efforts, but am just a little bit worried.


As a man, won't this come to haunt me in the future?

Lalasticlala

Nothing is haunting you bro.
If your wife is a Yoruba, bros thank your star and go relax.
If to talk of OWAM'BE, Yorubas own it.
Don't you know that the word, "Mo ma se'gbeyawo alarinrin fun omo mi" is like an oath from a Yoruba parent. Especially if that child is someone they're proud of or loved very much, my brother, if you're not careful self, they'll buy your wedding tuxedo.
That's Yorubas for you.
And that doesn't ever mean they'll require it of you in the future. Because just as your parents are letting you go, so they are also letting theirs go.

madridguy:
My brother, if God send you helper person no dey show muscle again.
You're lucky to have a supportive in-law.

Happy married life.

This your comment deserve a hundred likes from me alone.

MaxInDHouse:
When Jesus (God's only begotten Son) talked about marriage he laid emphasis on the beginning where God created One man and One woman the God initiated the first marriage. So Jesus came to redeem mankind so that we can regain what Adam lost, for any of us to have everlasting life we must comply with the standard God set IN THE BEGINNING! Matthew 19:4
Polygamy was allowed because Adam and Eve rebelled against God thinking they can decipher good and evil without God's intervention {Genesis 2:7 compare to 3:1-5} so God allowed time to help mankind learn from the mistakes others made during the time He allowed us try our best in doing what seems good in our sight. The name of the first polygamist is Lamech {Genesis 4:19} and after him many took two wives (including worshipers of God) but God allowed them to learn from experience! Romans 15:4 compare to 1Corinthians 10:11
Today we can all remember the result of polygamy in the lives of Jacob (Leah and Rachel) Levi (Hannah and Peninah) David and Solomon. Surely no one wants to experience the troubles this people encountered.

So if anyone now choose to enter into polygamy after seeing all that then it means the person doesn't have love for the children coming because all the children born in those families suffered the consequences of polygamy.

God bless you and may you have PEACE!

“And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,”
— Matthew 19:4 (KJV)

JESUS CHRIST was clear enough there.

CHRISTIANITY AND POLYGAMY

Did our LORD JESUS CHRIST ever request that a man who is married to more than one wife before he is converted divorce the other wife/wives, leaving only the first one?

NO. Our LORD JESUS CHRIST never said that.

Indeed, our LORD JESUS CHRIST never said this, contrary to what many today are preaching, hereby making several families commit adultery which our LORD JESUS CHRIST warned us against in His teachings.

The Bible indeed says:

Ecclesiastes 9:9 Live joyfully with the 'wife' whom thou lovest all the days of the life of thy vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity: for that is thy portion in this life, and in thy labour which thou takest under the sun.

This perhaps is what many misquoted, hereby concluding that a Christian must never take more than a wife:

Matthew 19:3-6 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

If this be, we all know there are no other genders created by GOD other than male and female. So GOD has only approved that a male marries a female just as GOD had ordained and speculated marriage.

GOD is therefore not against Christians marrying more than one wife. The 'one-man-one-wife' charge given as mentioned in the Bible, which was misquoted by many preachers today was by Paul, unto:

Bishops:

1 Timothy 3:2
A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

And to Deacons:

1 Timothy 3:12
Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.

And today, not all Christians are Bishops and/or Deacons.

Because no minister of GOD will be able to properly control two families under him without getting distracted and even offended, which is mainly due to jealousy and misunderstanding among the respective families, under each wife if they happen not to be united.

If you know you cannot cater for, take care of, nor train your families properly, DO NOT ATTEMPT to take more than one wife. For, your wife/wives and children needs your training, love, care and attention every wife/wives and children deserve to have and male a loving and peaceful home.

What our LORD JESUS CHRIST spoke against is divorce for no tangible reason except for infidelity.

Matthew 5:31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

Matthew 5:32
But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

Matthew 19:9
And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

Mark 10:12
And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.

For GOD is not against polygamy. If GOD had been against polygamy, He won't have said the following to king David as sent by prophet Nathan:

2 Samuel 12:7-8 And Nathan said to David, Thou art the man. Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, I anointed thee king over Israel, and I delivered thee out of the hand of Saul;
And I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom, and gave thee the house of Israel and of Judah; and if that had been too little, I would moreover have given unto thee such and such things.

Where GOD warned about too many wives is this, and it is to kings, and it is for their heart not to turn away from GOD:

Deuteronomy 17:14-18 When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like as all the nations that are about me;
Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the LORD thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother.
But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.
Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests the Levites:

So, there is no place in the Bible where GOD instructs any Christian to never take more than one wife or that he who already has more than one wife to send the others away and retain his first only because he is now converted.

Therefore, never let misleaders mislead you to send away your wife or wives because you're now converted and made a child of GOD. Keep your family intact and fed by GOD'S word and not human self made doctrines.

And if you have been misled by self made doctrines to send away your wife/wives because you have been converted and now a Christian, if your wife/wives is/are still within your reach and not married, go and reconcile with her/them.They are yours and belongs to you by the right of marriage and matrimony.

And if you're a second wife, never try to divorce your husband because hee is now converted or because you're now converted because you're his wife by right of matrimony. Rather serve the LORD with your husband and your family because you all are one and must not be separated by human self made doctrines.

And to the young man or woman planning to marry, I will never advise you go into polygamy because you may not be able to handle it. Rather, stick to your wife and or husband and raise a happy home. No cheating, underlooking, undermining nor disrespecting one another.

Let those who have been into polygamy already before their conversion keep their family as well. Let no one be forced into adultery because of self made doctrines.

I hope we are able to understand this as though.

Form this in one country and the next year, you will see them controlling traffic, arresting passers-by, checking phones, collecting ransom at ATM, stopping drivers and collecting fares, running when they hear armed robbery gunshots and mounting illegal roadblocks.

That country never gets anything done right.

Bro, I said you are talking to the wrong person. Drop your proof so they can believe you and stop defaming my image.

If you provoke me, I'll woze you supernatural slap.
Open another account with another moniker, I'll still find it.
I don't need to argue with you bloody scammer.

I still have your name Sopuruchukwu Enechi.

You went to church, not to sing, worship or praise, but to record a woman dancing to the song sang.
I guess you must have been trailing her since you saw her walk through the gates and sat behind her all because of her back.

Bro, whose sides are you on?
God's or women's backside?

What people do in church these days baffling…

Truly they look alike. Who knows where Davido learnt the act of scoring goals anywhere he sees skirt maybe from his father

You're very correct.
She might be his elder or younger sister.
The resemblance is too much.
DNA first, before the bad boy locate her.

I don't know what the hell you're talking about... show proof

Aha!
Didn't I tell you my eyes are on you and can point you out among millions of people?
Surprised because I never knew you or met you before?
Do you even have any idea of who you scammed?
I guess no.
Don't be shocked. I will continue to expose you. But I will never ever lay my hands on you. But unless you stop this wicked act of yours, you will meet with waterloo with who will never forgive you.

The earlier you all realize this guy is a damn scammer the better.
He is the same moniker as Davemore1 and Stella505.
He will direct you to purchase the crypto from one GOD'S ONLY, (he might have changed the name now though. Beware, he is still same person.) who operates a foreign number and then, you're bleeped.
He scammed me of thousands of naira.

Calling a spade, a spade.
