CharlesCNG: For a party that wants to deliver Nigeria, NDC is spending an embarrassing amount of time trying to deliver itself from itself.
Now we are told that **Dickson and Obi have “resolved” their dispute after a three-hour closed-door meeting.** For a new party, that is hardly a badge of strength. It is more like a newborn baby already needing family intervention before it has even learned how to sit. A platform that has barely arranged its own chairs is already promising to rearrange the entire furniture of the federation.
That is the comedy of NDC.
It was advertised as a fresh rescue vehicle, but from the beginning it has looked more like a borrowed bus full of restless passengers fighting over the front seat. First came the drama of defections, then the quarrels over tickets, then the Aisha Yesufu noise, then the Dickson boundary-drawing, and now a “closed-door peace meeting” as if the party is already an old house full of inherited bitterness.
There is a proverb for this: **the man who cannot carry his own mat should not boast of carrying the market stall.**
If this is what NDC looks like before the real campaign even starts, what will happen when governorship tickets, presidential strategy, zoning fights, and regional egos begin to clash fully? A party that needs emergency reconciliation before it can even settle into itself should be humble in its language of national redemption.
Because the truth is simple:
**NDC has not yet shown Nigeria a government-in-waiting. It has only shown Nigeria a quarrel-in-progress.**
And that is the putdown at the heart of it all: **before NDC talks of delivering Nigeria, it should first prove it can survive itself without another closed-door rescue operation.**
Why can't Peter obi and obedient form a party that will not have all these challenges.
h777: WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE SEATED TOGETHER WITH CHRIST?
The scripture says:
«"For HE raised us from the dead along with CHRIST and seated us with HIM in the heavenly realms because we are united with CHRIST JESUS." (Ephesians 2:6, NLT)»
This is one of the most profound revelations concerning the believer's identity and position in CHRIST. It reveals that through our union with CHRIST, GOD ALMIGHTIEST has given us a place with HIS SON in the heavenly realms.
The believer is not merely a forgiven sinner waiting for heaven. The believer has already been raised with CHRIST and seated with HIM in the heavenly realms. This is a present spiritual reality.
The key to understanding this verse is the phrase, "because we are united with CHRIST JESUS." Everything that belongs to CHRIST has become accessible to those who are in HIM. HIS death became our death. HIS resurrection became our resurrection. HIS exaltation became our exaltation.
When CHRIST died, our old life under sin was brought to an end in HIM.
When CHRIST rose from the dead, we received new life in HIM.
When CHRIST was seated in the heavenly realms, we were given a place in HIM.
To be seated with CHRIST means that we now share in the privileges of our union with HIM. We have been brought into fellowship with GOD ALMIGHTIEST. We have been accepted in CHRIST. We have access to the FATHER through HIM.
It also speaks of authority. CHRIST is seated far above every ruler, authority, power, and dominion. Because we are united with HIM, we participate in HIS victory over sin, death, and the powers of darkness. We do not stand before GOD ALMIGHTIEST as defeated people, but as those who are joined to the victorious CHRIST.
This seating also speaks of rest. CHRIST completed the work of redemption and took HIS seat in the heavenly realms. Therefore, the believer does not strive to earn acceptance before GOD ALMIGHTIEST. Our confidence rests in what CHRIST has already accomplished.
Furthermore, being seated with CHRIST reveals our heavenly citizenship. Though we live on earth, our life is hidden with CHRIST in GOD. Our inheritance is heavenly, our hope is heavenly, and our destiny is secured in CHRIST.
Therefore, to be seated together with CHRIST means that through our union with HIM, GOD ALMIGHTIEST has given us a place in the heavenly realms. We share in CHRIST'S life, CHRIST'S victory, CHRIST'S authority, and CHRIST'S standing before the FATHER. Though we walk on earth, we belong to the heavenly realm, and our position in CHRIST is established forever.
Scam. All na lie! It's all to achieve a predetermined goal😜
Toolegit123: Good day my fellow Nairalanders. Of late,my fiancee and I broke up and I've been considering about going into a new relationship. I must really say all the time I was with my ex,I was so commitment to her to the extent that I didn't even have time for any other woman. She knew that and Peru that must be one of my weaknesses she saw.
But the truth is that it's been over a month we ended the relationship and I really long to go into another's relationship as an escape route for me to stop thinking about my ex.
So,my questions to you my fellow Nairalanders,how long should a man wait before going into another relationship after a break up? Is it right to find love as soon as possible considering the fact that the it was my ex who ended the relationship for reasons only known to her?
Gwen you keep kidnappers, bandits alive in prison, their gang members will continue to make this kind of silly demands. Why are they still alive for God's sake. They are killers that deserve to die too. What kind of a country did we find ourselves?☹️
Bobloco: South Africa captain Ronwen Williams has expressed disappointment at what he described as a lack of support from fellow African nations following Bafana Bafana’s 2-0 defeat to co-hosts Mexico in their opening 2026 FIFA World Cup match on Thursday night, Saturday PUNCH reports.
The result leaves South Africa with work to do in Group A as they pursue a place in the knockout rounds.
Speaking after the match, Williams admitted he was surprised by the volume of African football fans who appeared to back Mexico rather than an African representative on the global stage, and called for greater unity among Africans during major tournaments.
“Africans have always supported other African countries in every World Cup tournament, but I can’t figure out why our own case is different,” Williams said. “Many Africans supported Mexico, not us, the South Africans. We almost shed tears, but it’s truly sad.”
"As Africans, let’s stand for each other, let’s stand together.”
While some supporters sympathised with the goalkeeper’s sentiments and agreed that African nations should rally behind one another at international competitions, others offered a contrasting view.
A number of social media users from countries including Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and Zimbabwe argued that recurring reports of xenophobic attacks on African migrants in South Africa have weakened the sense of continental solidarity, with several referencing past incidents involving foreign nationals living in the country as having shaped how other Africans view South Africa.
Some openly stated that they had supported Mexico in the match, citing those tensions as a factor in their decision.
RevenuesBoost: Why Do Some People Think Farming Is For Poor People? —Yam-Sack Farming
I got married to an agriculturist that always want to experiment everything he studied in school.
Yes, where I come from, people see farming as suffering but my husband sees it as fun.
I'm like, you are using the farming thing to joke because you didn't come from a home that their children go to farm daily, by now, e for don tire you.
He will just laugh about it and reply, “It’s always worth it.” And honestly, doing this with him is fun.
What some people see as suffering, others see as opportunity. What some people call dirty work, others call food, business, peace, and investment.
Now this Yam-Sack Farming we’re doing has become another reminder that farming is not just about hardship. It can also be creative, productive, and even exciting when done with passion and knowledge. At the end of the day, farming feeds everybody, rich or poor.
ogododo: Governor Dikko Umaru Radda of Katsina State has backed down on his decision not to engage bandits terrorising communities across the state, saying the door of negotiation is open to those willing to embrace peace.
He said the state government remains willing to engage bandits and kidnappers who genuinely denounce criminal activities, stressing that the state government is willing to facilitate their reintegration.
He asked them to abandon violence, embrace dialogue and surrender their weapons in the interest of peace and development.
The governor made the appeal during the official commissioning and handing over of 152 housing units to internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Jibia Local Government Area of the state,on Thursday.
The houses were constructed under the UNDP Northwest Prevention Facility Project under the support of the government of Germany in partnership with the state government.
The governor urged those still involved in criminal activities to turn a new leaf and return to their families and communities, assuring them that government support and opportunities could also be extended to them if they choose the path of peace as they lay down their weapons.
“To our brothers and sisters in the bush and forests, to those who still raise weapons against innocent people, and to those engaged in banditry, kidnapping and violence, hear me clearly today: there is a better path, the doors for dialogue, repentance and reintegration remain open.”
“Lay down your arms and return to your families and communities. The same houses, grants and opportunities being provided here today can be available to you tomorrow. Not through fear or bloodshed, but through peace, good governance and honest labour. Choose your children over your weapons. Choose prosperity over destruction. Choose life,” he said.
Radda reiterated his administration’s commitment to pursuing lawful and practical measures aimed at ending the persistent insecurity confronting many communities across the state.
He said lasting peace remains essential for the state’s development and pledged to continue supporting initiatives that promote stability, rehabilitation and community recovery.
