mrvitalis: I'm waiting for how they would make lekki port viable without changing the executive order that gave Apapa advantage
If u don't understand what I mean there is an executive order that mandates certain critical goods can only come in through Apapa .. Eg pharmaceutical and chemicals the list is long
That's why the lekki deep sea port is near dormant
Who told you Lekki Deep Sea Port is dormant? Have you been there regularly?
atobs4real: The last word I will say is that the tax reform is not needed now. The country is bleeding. Can't you see?
And the country should continue to bleed as the rich don't pay tax, while ordinary market women are paying multiple taxes. Let's be clear. You are not familiar with the bill.
AntiChristian: It's either God saves you by his mercy or by works. The criminal from Luke didn't have any works. So one of the theory is false!
Also the blind Jesus told was forgiven had no works!
Abeg leave those theory, those scriptures was collated independent of one another! Even the scriptures of Paul became more prominent same time as Mathew and co!
You are repeating what I said. It is by mercy you are saved. Your works are dead. It is only in Christ that you have living work. Your work only counts when you have been saved by the sure mercies of the Lord. Any work done outside of Christ is filthy rag before God.
AntiChristian: Jesus says: Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles? (Matthew 27:21-22)
Paul's guy Luke reported that Jesus answered saying:“Work hard to enter the narrow door to God’s Kingdom, for many will try to enter but will fail.(Luke 13:24)
Jesus emphasizes doing the will of the father as a condition to enter the Kingdom of heaven!
Paul says For He says to Moses: “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.” So then, it does not depend on man’s desire or effort, but on God’s mercy.(Romans 9:15-16)
Paul says it's by God's mercy oooooooooo!
Is it by God's mercy or by doing God's will aka works?
That scripture is higher than your mind can carry. It is by mercy you are saved for no one can come to God except God draws him to himself. That was why even though we were many friends who were preached to but only I submitted to the Lordship of Christ at the very time I gave my life to Christ. Am I better than them? No! Why did I make the choice, and those friends didn't? Mercy found me because God drew me.
It is only when you have been drawn to Christ that you now have the capacity to obey God.
The first few couple of decades after Jesus the Bible does doesn't exist as it is now!
How were people saved?
Enough with this Holy spirit interpretation nonsense! Each books of the Bible were written separately and then collated later according to the whims and caprices of some so-called church fathers! Other books they don't want were simply rejected!
Don't take that out of context also. There are clear basis for rejecting other books. The criteria for accepting any book for canonization of the scriptures and the three elements that guided the church elders at that time include:
1. Church leaders often appealed to the agreement of the book with what they called “the rule of faith.” This meant that the teaching of the book followed the beliefs the church regarded as acceptable and correct.
2. The book had to demonstrate apostolicity. This criterion required authorship by an apostle or by the associate of an apostle (as in the instance of Mark and Luke).
3. The church applied the test of universality. This required that the book be accepted by a broad geographical segment of the church.
Yes there were many good books but could not fit into these three yardsticks.
Thanks The Lord will return soon! Will you be ready?
lawbabs: It's foolish to say there is no God. Even scientist have found evidence that there was a beginning to this earth. So all your big bang theories are ablaze.
Ilamina: [url][/url] They just told us lies So we will live good lives and not commit crimes
And too maintain our relationship with the West

Lance008: All this Christian no normal at all Did you know if satan apologize to God at the last moment but he stil throw am out u no ask urself why ? Isreal get enemy God favorite country
I really get your point but the truth is for a Christian, if you don't forgive anyone regardless of their offense, it's a sign that you have surrendered completely to the Authority of Christ. You are still in charge of your life, despite knowing that God pulled you through the hard times. And remember vengeance belongs to Him.
This is how I quickly let people off in my heart: I ask the question - Am I willing to point a gun at the offender? Answer is No. Am I sure that God will reward everyone who have wrongly worked against me? Yes he will. So if I keep getting angry and unwilling to forgive, how does that deal with the person? No way! I just let go, and let God.
You can forgive and stay away from the person if you are unsure of the person's motive. But to not forgive is a trouble you don't want to go to hell for.
Freshtruth: I have been struggling with Masturbation, virtual bet and brothel habbit The masturbating was 10yrs old I was able to quit it since 2020 I have never gone back till date
The virtual bet9ja was 3yrs old I started it 2016 Oct I ended it September 2019 till date I have never played it
Since I quit this 2 habits my account that was always zero naira has miraculously risen to above 300k
The last habit is the brothel habit I have lit it but still go there once a while .
Helpe Thank God quiting this addition is not an easy feat
Hmmmm! It's not gone! It's because you have found solace in prostitutes. There is a spirit helping you to keep the addiction. If you want to break free from it completely, you need to cry to Jesus to save you. The power in the name of Jesus can set you free completely if you genuinely repent and ask the power of God to break every bondage of sexual and self indulging perversions in your life.
Nothing is wrong obviously! and nothing there says he is not reading for his exam. But I am speaking to the misleading context of the thread. The thread seams to focus on a gentleman praying on the rooftop, but the ridiculous post suggests that the prayer is directed at passing exam, rather than prepare for exam. So i am asking a clear question... is there anywhere in the video, where we can get a clue that that is what he was praying about? None!
Zxcvbnmghtr: It's obvious that this one did not study for the exams. He is counting on God to do miracle. The typical mentality of religious people, the case with Nigeria. Expecting manna from heaven and not from the sweat in tilling the soil.
How did you know he is praying because of exam? Social Media will make you all zombies.
Fortune118005: At the beginning of the AFCON competition, I saw Ivory coast beating the Super Eagles of Nigeria by two goals to one. When they first met at the group stage, Ekong scored his first penalty in the tournament that gave Super Eagles victory. Now that they will meet again in the finals on Sunday 11th February, what I saw may come to pass. I saw Super Eagles loosing alot of chances and Ivory Coast converting their chances to goals which made Ivory Coast eventually wins.
What I saw concerning this final can be influenced.
gidgiddy: I read what Reno Omokiri said about Decree 34, Decree 8 and the Aburi accord, and wonder why this guy keeps pushing out false narratives? Is he such a poor student of Nigerian history or is this deliberate?
Reno Omokri said that Ironsi abrogated Regional rule, seized the resources of the Regions with Decree 34, the same old lie that has been told for decades. Why cant Reno Google Decree 34 and read what is in there? There were 4 Regions when Ironsi came in, the same 4 Regions were there the day he was killed, so which Region(s) did Ironsi abrogate? Decree 34 was nothing more than a civil service decree, at no time did Ironsi tamper with the boundaries of the 4 Regions that existed at the time, nor did he deny them resource control
If Reno wants to know who really abrogated Regional rule in Nigeria, let him Google Gowons Decree 14 that abolished all 4 Regions Nigeria had,and created 12 states in their stead, as well as Decree 15 that ended resource control of the Regions
The Reno Omokiri pitifully tried to defend Gowon over the Aburi accord, claiming that Gowon had to renege on the Aburi agreement because Ojukwu announced the agreement first, rather than let Gowon do it. Has this Reno guy lost his senses? When you sign an agreement, it becomes binding, who announced the agreement first is irrelevant
Ojukwu signed an agreement in front of the President of Ghana, General Joe Ankrah, the three other military Governors of the time also signed, but the reason Reno is giving why Gowon could not implement what was signed was that on return to Nigeria, Ojukwu announced the agreement first?
Reno Omokri is a laughable character
You are also very inaccurate with your record. He may have exaggerated facts but you have misappropriated facts in a bid to derail his submission. For instance, Reno never said Ironsi tampered with boundaries. But it's a known facts that Ironsi tampered with how the regions are administered, which affected the Exclusive, Concurrent, and Residual list.
Chiefpriestt: Yoruba Muslims are despicable and evil. Spit on your cone head
Why don't you defend the school and Datti. Or at worst debunk his claims. This name calling of Yorubas, and Yoruba Muslims won't do you guys a Favour.
I am not a Muslim but your comment stinks of gaslighting others. When they come for you or your tribe, you start saying ethnic bigots are at work. You are the definition of bigot. Just look in the mirror.
ipobarecriminals: :DBia! Haven't u seen one Aunty TOLU "INTERNATIONAL" NURSERY/PRIMARY SCHOOL B4 ? That MAIZE/nah BAZE nah confam "INTERNATIONAL'' UNIVERSITY.Dem probably dey do RUNZ in that SCHOOL if the PRICE IS RIGHT..THIEF
Na political Law Faculty dem dey run for that school. Two politician friends of mine told me when they got admission to that school to study law and guess what? Like a blink of the eye, they were done. These were people globetrotting during the three year program. I just kept the thought to myself that time only to see this ban.
smileyoo: but sincerely speaking, if they rejected the cars, they will only be cheating themselves, especially when the proceeds will only be channelled back to the cess-pit of corruption, that's into their famous structure of criminality, where the masses will not benefit anything from. Nigerians are not ready for genuine change, therefore they should enjoy themselves while the rottenness prevails. lol. what have you benefited from the fuel subsidy removal, so far ?
So much for opposition politics. There are sacrifices that a genuine opposition party must make to be relevant and to put pressure on the ruling party.
Let me just tell you now, they are all the same. It is foolishness to think LP is the saviour of Nigeria. The question is all who won on LP platform, where they never in another party before? They all joined for from one party or another that didn't give them chance.
The dirt in the South West can be used to fill the Atlantic Ocean and there'd be no water left.
If na Alaba or Ladipo now, they will turn it tribal. There is so much silence now because it is not a market dominated by only a section of the country. In any case, we know who are the real and true tribalists, Nedu.
TheBillyonaire: The Judgement was written by Tinubu Legal Team and submitted to the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal panel to read.
They were paid off handsomely.
I hope Tinubu succeeds, I wish him well. Now I know crime pays, and not every criminal can be caught. Peter Obi needs to understand that Good can only defeat evil with a tint of entropy. There is need for the good to wage war for liberation of a people.
I hope you know this is how witchcraft starts? You all will be manipulating things to disrespect others and to rubbish other people's work. Now that you know crime pays, go ahead and become a criminal. You will lavish in jail.
Malroux: Stop supporting injustice against the downtrodden. You might be the victim tomorrow.

ShortBiscuit: Why is it that a currency ($) that Nigeria doesn't own nor print keeps having such an insane influence on our local economy??
Because for the sixty-something years of independence, we have not been able to transform our economy into a production-based system. Even in sectors where we produce, production equipment is sourced from abroad. Also, we employ expatriates to guide in the operations of such equipment. We have not built capacity in our people, and we have not built a sustainable system that ensures that the daily needs of our countrymen do not require importation.
Even the toothpick you use is imported from China. An Average Nigerian stands up with expensive clothing (be it native or corporate), the shoe is imported, the shirts or atiku material, or Ankara imported, the belt is imported, the wrist watch imported, the glasses are imported, the perfume is imported, the only thing local maybe who sowed the clothing.
So it's a long chain of dependence on imports. To move away, it has to be a conscious and deliberate effort from the government and the people. It will take more than 15 years to structurally reverse this order with biting sacrifices on the part of the people. Some of the structural reversal initiatives include the revamp of technical education in Nigeria, the revival of Ajaokuta Steel, the review of the engineering curriculum to make it a more practical and deliberate investment in critical engineering and technical manufacturing (particularly the manufacturing of machines, chips, batteries, electric equipment, etc). These are the foundations of manufacturing. So that any manufacturing enterprise can go to a university to design the engineering side of things, and take it to machinery factories to produce the machines required for manufacturing. It is a long way to go... I am not sure we have those visionary leaders, who will not look at only immediate gains but long-term structural reversal of import dependency.
Penguin2: True or false, it’s just to remind you lots that we have our eyes on you.
Meanwhile the judges and courts have been denying every other report Jackson Ude but hasn’t denied his report of More Supreme Court judges being banned from the United States, why?
it is obvious that you guys have gone bunkers. You are very glad to see propaganda against the judiciary, and yet you want to see justice. Dont hide. It is not justice you want, you want to teleguide and arm-twist the judiciary to give the verdict that suites you, and guess what, it doesn't work that way...
