Continue to dey play ▶️▶️▶️

Even your Ancestors are calling you to believe in Jesus Christ

Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life

No one comes to the Father except by him

You are just a robot regurgitating what was drummed into your head as a kid.

If you had been born in the middle of China you would be a BUDDHIST today, with zero knowledge of, or interest in 'Jesus'.

If you had been born in Saudi Arabia, ALL you would know and care about is Muhammed.

And God does not save his creation based on geographical "luck".

So No, your being born in a Christian invaded territory does not give you special qualification to heaven.

SlavaUkraini:
OP, continue to dey play ▶️

The only thing you need to enter heaven is to believe in Jesus Christ.... That's all

All that your self righteousness and holiness is nothing but a filthy rag in the sight of God..

Jesus Christ is your only Visa to the Father

You are WRONG.

NOBODY needs to "BELIEVE IN" anything or anybody in order to return home to the Land of the Ancestors, which you call "heaven".

We are POWERFUL IMMORTAL BEINGS.

God made flesh in temporal human bodies.

When the body expires we return home, with our consciousness and awareness intact and expanded to our pre-birth state.

In the Land of the Ancestors, Thought creates reality. There are mansions sitting in the sky. Some on the ground. If you want a 50 room mansion of gold, you simply think about it and it materialises before you.

You are all very powerful immortal beings.

All loved by God.

When you return home you will remember it all again.

Before you were born they put a "veil of forgetting" over you so that your knowledge wouldn't interfere with your mission in this incarnation.

You actually chose your parents and the life path you would lead, and even the country you would be born in. These were best for your mission be it to teach, learn, or both.

You would have had a guide (chi) with you, as you worked out your new Earth life.

FarahAideed:
You forgot to tell us the electric motors and transmission in these power boats were built in the ancient kingdom of Ile Ife

No, but Black Africans invented boats and ships thousands of years before your white massas existed.

Which is why you went straight to the "electric motors and transmission", forgetting that WITHOUT THE BOATS And IRON SMELTING invented by Black Africans, there would be no "electric motor transmission".

You Nigerian youth need to understand that human civilisation and technology is a continuum that began thousands of years ago IN AFRICA.

You are not inferior beings.

Without your illustrious ancestors there would be NOTHING called civilisation or technology today.

The entire world would be living in caves.

Do you know it was Black Africans who invented timekeeping as we know it today?

Do you know that that round wristwatch or clock you have is derived from the Ancient African practice of drawing a large circle on the ground to measure the Earth's movement in relation to the sun?

How will you know?

Black Africans in Lejja, Nsukka also invented the technology of iron smelting 4,000 years ago without which you would have nothing like cars, fridges, boats, ships, buses, metal spoons and forks, aeroplanes, or smartphones to type what you just did.

Kdon2:
Selective amnesia. All those killed on October 7tu are flies ba?☹️

Mr October 7th.

Under WHOSE spiritual law is it acceptable to slaughter 1 million people in retaliation for 1,000?

I'm sure you call yourself a CHRISTIAN.

What do you think JESUS CHRIST thinks about GENOCIDE, Mr ''CHRISTIAN''?

Who do you think you are deceiving by calling yourself a CHRISTIAN while supporting GENOCIDE??

GOD?

Matthew 7:21

Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

That's what your SAVIOUR said.

Re-read it.

Unless you think you are now YOUR OWN SAVIOUR.

Karlovych:
They are Americans, everyone in Sub-Saharan Africa was getting kidnapped and sold around the same time theirs were shipped off across the Atlantic.

Stop typing ignorance. AFRICA South of the Sahara was a land of mighty prosperous kingdoms and empires like the Ghana Empire, Mali Empire, Songhai Empire, Great Zimbabwe, Benin Kingdom, and many others.

Even the Transatlantic slave trade primarily affected a few coastal areas of West Africa, not the entire continent.

Go and pick up an African history book.

Righteousness2:
He is lucky it's only his mic that was switched off.

HE and his likes Should go ask the likes of Baalam what Happened to him when Balak the king of Moab hired him to Curse ISRAEL.
Na im Donkey open mouth give am warning.
Na im Donkey save am from Destruction.

I Pity these confused nations and Leaders. They are begging for the Wrath of Their CREATOR, THE ANCIENT OF THE DAYS, THE GOD OF ISRAEL.

You are confused.

Your CREATOR does not approve of GENOCIDE.

And he will LET YOU KNOW when you leave this world.

All those millions of kids with their heads blown off by bombs in their nurseries, which you supported and cheered, will be shown to you....in your Life Review. You will feel everything they felt.

It is said by near-death experiencers - those who have been to the Other Side, and experienced the Life Review, that the effect on souls is worse than physical torture.

And they decide in horror and grief, to reincarnate, in order to make amends.

Because there you will have an Expanded Consciousness, and can see that ALL ARE ONE BEING, GOD, with we as aspects of GOD.

Droplets from the River God.

And that by hurting others, whom you thought were 'separate', you were hurting yourself.

Welcome To Port Harcourt The Beautiful

This city is fast challenging Lagos and Abuja.

It's actually very underrated.

The infrastructure is so impressive. What I like most about them is they COVER THEIR DRAINS AND build SIDEWALKS for pedestrians, showing ENLIGHTENED leadership. Other cities, take note, please. Learn!

I think you have issues.

Also oke weaving was huge in my family. People became doctors and professors on money their parents made from it, but now it's no more viable for us anymore, and I am glad it still thrives in Iseyin.

https://realnewsmagazine.net/aso-oke-industry-is-dying/

What does THAT have to do with anything?

Cheap Chinese imports have shut down businesses all over the world, including in America!!

Fashion tastes have also changed like you mentioned. Is that also the fault of the weavers?

Just leave them alone and stop criticising people working hard for a living and making money, ok?

Hollywood legend, Samuel L. Jackson recently did his ancestry DNA test and discovered he is from GABON.

He went there and was welcomed home by the people...This is happening a lot among Black American celebrities.....

budaatum:
Iseyin is in Ibadan, Oyo State, lol.

On a serious note, this was huge in my hometown of Ifon Osun in the 70s, but died off in the 80s. I once went to Mapo in Ibadan and was surprised how much Made in China there was, which made me think a lack of innovation is killing us as we don't evolve what we do.

You are WRONG. Traditional weaving is Traditional weaving.

Even in China there is traditional weaving that's very similar to this.

We also have modern textile factories in Nigeria.

The presence of traditional weaving does not signify stagnation or ''lack of innovation''.

Don't come and inject your negative mind here.

Tizmamoney:
European countries and their leaders becoming irrelevant day by day

The new players are US, India, China and Russia.
The next big is Brazil.

AFRICA is the biggest new player.

WE hold the resources, and have become extremely assertive in no longer wanting to be mere raw material suppliers.

We have serious leverage. If you don't know, know it now.

The US should not be on your list.

Once the world abandons the dollar, they are finished.

Iseyin. A small ancient town where a frustrated graduate who couldn't get an office job, decided to enter and start weaving cloth for ASO-OKE, using our ancient weaving technology, and is now earning millions.

Miggs:
I truly admire folks like you who try to educate these people.
I tried to in the past but I have simply given up.
Niger,the so-called dirt poor,poo hole, halted the sale of uranium to "almighty" France via the Orano corporation and look how that nation is floundering today.
Look at what Burkina and Mali are doing to foreign,crooked gold mining companies like Barrick by seizing control of the mines and how those "omnipotent" corporations are pleading with those "dictators" to remain in those territories
Yet all some folks here do day in & day out is talk crap about Mama Africa because they don't know any better

Omo, the entire France is in a terrible economic crisis. People have filled the streets in protests.

All this because just a couple of Francophone nations kicked them out.

Africa is very powerful, something OTHER African people are finally realising, except Nigerians.

spiSeyi:
They have a point here and I wish more countries to follow soon, the same ICC who arrested the likes of Charles Taylor has suddenly become toothless dog in dealing with Nathayahu and his cronies who committing genocide daily in Gaza . ICC is just a colonial imperialism tools for Africa

100%

It's an INSULT for an African country to be a member of the ICC.

Slimm01:
The truth is that Africa being third world countries cannot stand on their own without looking up to those advanced countries. In as much as we keep saying Africa is great, Africa is self sufficient and so on....we need to kiss the truth.

YOU ARE WRONG.

Africa has ALL IT TAKES to ''stand on its own''.

Africa ''STOOD ON ITS OWN'' and was PROSPEROUS before the colonial invasion.

We have NEVER needed ''white people'' to survive and thrive in Africa.

UNDERSTOOD?

It is the OTHER WAY ROUND.

It is the WEST that needs AFRICA to survive. It's why they built guns and firearms, and came here looking for people to enslave, to build their countries, and later came again to colonise, to loot our natural resources to build their industries, while selling you a fake white 'lord and saviour' to make you worship them as they rob you.

In fact, if CONGO ALONE decides to HALT exports of Cobalt, the ENTIRE world economy would crash the same week.

DRC is the ONLY COUNTRY ON EARTH with cobalt, an essential mineral used to build computer chips and conductors in every single computer.

Or should we talk about LITHIUM?

Do you know the world is relying on AFRICAN LITHIUM to power the new technological age?

Do you know that LITHIUM valued at over $12 TRILLION was discovered in just Nigeria alone?

Do you know that Elon Musk's TESLA came to NIGERIA begging to be sold raw lithium and Nigeria said NO?

That if you want Nigerian lithium you must build the Lithium battery factories IN NIGERIA?

This world is INTERRELATED.

Africa today is no more isolated. It has powerful allies like China, Russia, India, and Brazil.

Look, you Nigerian youths need to get rid of this idea that the west is the be-all-and-end-all of this world.

You are living in the past, and it's an embarrassment.

If tiny Burkina Faso can tell the west to get lost, AND NOTHING HAPPENS, and in fact their country is now developing faster, what are YOU afraid of as NIGERIA?

SmartPolician:
Their people need to take to the streets and protest this evil decision. ICC is perfectly good for African countries because their leaders are some of the worst in the world!

Without African leaders you would be a village illiterate with no electricity..

The British built no public schools and no power stations. Our first power plant was Kainji dam commissioned in 1964 by Balewa.

Without Independence you would be in your village farm right now eating roast yam and palm oil.

But THOSE TWO LEADERS oppose and condemn the mass slaughter of innocent children and genocide in GAZA, while you “REAL CHRISTIANS” support the GENOCIDE, in total CONTRAVENTION of your New Testament.

Those two men are more RIGHTEOUS than all of you combined.

Ndi “Jesus”.

PurestBoy:
How about we adopt same style of having invisible agents instead of causing traffic and making it look like the president is going to war

Funnily enough, if it was BRITAIN with a large convoy for their PM, and the Nigerian president with only one car behind him, you would attack Nigeria and say “See how serious and professional the British are with security, while we are so useless and lax.”

I know how your mind works.

Whatever “white man” does “must be better”.

Tragic.

Serenitys:
I clearly stated a president and governor because I was referring to a democratic setting, but your brain is lacking the ability to relate. Was Nigeria on a democratic system when the assassination happened? You brought in Yar'Adua because you couldn't figure out I used Abacha to remove such mentions to my replies. You mentioned Google, but sorry, Google can't think for you. You lack the ability to make good use of your senses.

But America has a “democratic setting”.

Have you seen Trump’s convoy?

When their former president John F Kennedy was assassinated in the 1960s, was it not in a democratic setting?

Don’t just type because you have Internet access.

Nigeria’s central bank has lowered its benchmark lending rate for the first time in five years, delivering a half-point cut amid cooling inflation and continued stability of the local naira currency.

Tuesday’s decision lowered the bank’s key interest rate to 27 per cent and was in line with the median forecast in a Bloomberg poll of economists.

Central bank governor Olayemi Cardoso said at a press conference in the capital Abuja that the decision of the 12-member Monetary Policy Committee was based on disinflation in the country — which is expected to continue — and the need to support a still-struggling economy.

Headline annual inflation slowed to 20.1 per cent in August, down from 21.9 per cent in July, marking five consecutive months of cooling prices.

Razia Khan, Standard Chartered’s head of research for Africa and the Middle East, said the central bank’s stance showed there was the possibility of “more easing to come”. The central bank holds its final rate meeting of the year in November.

“This easing signals confidence in FX stability, [with] higher reserves and a healthy current account surplus,” Khan said. “Much more importantly,” she added, the central bank “sees sustained disinflation in the months ahead, the result of previous policy choices — hinting at more easing to come”.

The latest consumer prices data marked a more significant drop compared with the same month last year, when the inflation rate was at 32.15 per cent. In January, Nigeria’s statistics agency changed the base year from 2009 to 2024 and modified the weighting of items in the consumer price index.

The publicly-funded Nigerian Institute of Social And Economic Research think-tank argued in a paper published in April that the rebasing was crucial to “reflect current economic realities, including shifts in consumer spending patterns, the emergence of new industries, and the impact of technological innovations on production and consumption”.

Cardoso also announced on Tuesday a reduction in the cash reserve ratio, the percentage of commercial bank deposits to be kept with the central bank, from 50 per cent to 45 per cent.

The naira has been stable for more than a year, after falling to record lows last year following two devaluations by President Bola Tinubu as part of wide-ranging economic reforms that included removing fuel subsidies.

The currency has gained 2.5 per cent against the dollar this month. Nigeria’s foreign reserve position has also steadily improved, with the bank reporting liquid reserves of $41.4bn at the end of last week. This year, Nigeria has attracted an influx of dollars from foreign portfolio investors enticed by high yields on its local bond market.

The rate cut will be welcomed by businesses, which have long complained about the high cost of borrowing in Africa’s most populous country.

Tuesday’s decision is the first rate cut since the Covid-19 pandemic when the central bank was led by former governor Godwin Emefiele, who is now on trial for a range of charges including obtaining money by false pretences during his tenure. He has pleaded not guilty and denied the allegations.

Cardoso, who in 2023 became governor of the apex bank, as the central bank is known locally, had pledged to embrace economic orthodoxy after the bank was plagued by scandal under his predecessor.

The thing about these public officials like Wike is that they don’t even need to loot money in public office to get rich.

Just use basic common sense and use your influence to get some legitimate earning enterprise going with your family etc, and you are made.

Why loot?

shacks99:
This one go choke Wike aswear, US no de send any body when it comes to corruption issues.

Except their own president, a criminal convict on 34 felonies including fraud.

Tinubu needs to SPEND MORE on fortifying those remote border military bases.

He needs to recruit at least 100,000 new army recruits.

This HAS to stop, Mr President.

I’m still wondering when Igbos began to see drug trafficking as the way to get rich.

Even in the 90s and early 2000s there weren’t like this. Back then it was Bini boys and Yoruba guys that used to be caught with drugs - occasionally - and even disgraced publicly by the govt, especially the military regimes.

It was likely due to the logistical difficulties of getting food around in war conditions. It wasn’t a “famine” which occurs due to lack of rainfall etc.

guass:
Anytime Tinubu visits the US, he doesn't go out of the airport. He knows what he is hiding from.
I told my friends some days back that nothing on earth would make Tinubu attend the UNGA in US. They thought I was joking. Even next year he will not still attend.

Trump their president is a CONVICTED CRIMINAL ON 34 FELONIES.

Why should Tinubu go to America and subject himself to a whims and caprices of a CONVICTED CRIMINAL?

Tell us!
