It seems that you are the arrogant-bishop press secretary - thanks for enlightening us about the bishop's background.

bezimo:
If you have nothing constructive and insightful on the matter get lost and try to inform your ignorance before you advertise it..Common sense demands that before you villify the man of God you should know a few basic things about him..
He was called of God in 1981 he was ordained and commisioned into church ministry in 1983 by Pastor EA Adeboye and anoited Bishop in 1987 by a most revered Man of God who mentored him in the 80s and 90s in person of ArchBishop Benson Idahosa..I guess that time you possibly werent even born.Oh he is not a God ordained priest..if not that you are a comfirm ignorant person. Who is a priest? How is a priest ordained? What is the function of a priest? How does a priest fit into the 5 fold minstry offices described by paul in the new testament?
Even the demonic forces of hell acknowledge Papa Oyedepo as a sent man of God with undeniable proofs. Oh you dont know. Is not your fault.
like Papa would often say impact is not by title.

Good Memory - I wished he had slap the so call witch in AMERICA - He would have been swimming in jail.

babseg:
So disappointed with that statement of his

what do you expect from a man with pride.

if you dont remember go and watch and listen to what he said when he slapped the witch

May the GOOD LORD Bless those who rescue her in Jesus Almighty Name.

I pray that they will be found,no harm will come upon them. Amen.

One of the sad things of raising someone else's child is to see the biological father suddenly pop up at the son's graduations - hugging and taking pictures with the child he had never contributed anything significant.
The second sad thing is to see your wife and her baby father sitting in the front row at their son's wedding while you the Samaritan father is just a mere-spectator - this not a Nollywood movie, this is real.
As long as the child's father is ALIVE, don't go after baby mama - it is an accident waiting to happen.

jpphilips:
Your wife defeated you with superior intelligence after all the baby mama shit, they hang it on rookies like yourself,

Do you know that several sane ladies wont marry you if you carry such baggage? anyways some folks are addicted to tokumbo shaa.

dont be deceived, birth certificate is the only legal document the boy has you can still go back to the same hospital and write another with your name on which all other credentials will be built. ie if your wife is pulling such unintelligent stunt.

finally, keeping another man's son under your roof is a time bomb. especially when you intend to have sons of your own.

The baby mama craze wont end if men like you continue falling for their antics.

You are a good counselor - he need to meet with you face to face for a proper counseling.

efighter:
This guy is married to a gold digger who is suffering from megalomania which is worse than narcissism. She is married to you because of what she can get from you. She also wants to be attached to her baby daddy because of what she might get from the baby daddy. When she sees another rich guy, she will start dating him while still married to you because of what she can get from the new rich guy.

Now, tell me, why did you marry someone else' baby mama? Haven't you read severally on social media that no reasonable guy should marry a woman who has a baby for another man? Marry 'after one'? God forbids. Is that the best you could do? I think you ready undervalue yourself to have married an 'after one'.

She is an accident waiting to happen - the boy need a serious counseling.

Ajagunhope:
Is sad that she didn't tell you she already had a child before the wedding....


She can't be trusted.

Sound funny but Gospel TRUTH. More Grease to your brain.

You were young and immature to get yourself into this marriage. Counseling is all you need right now from your pastor/imam and your parents. Many single mothers are ACCIDENT waiting to happen, they are like a petrol trailer going down on a hill without a driver. Get your parents along.

ray121:
Hi everyone.

I do really need your advise on what to do before taking action. I'm a young married guy and married to a single mother. Initially I never knew she had a son but when i got to know i accepted my fate and moving on. We now living together and had my own daughter for me.

The step son started school now under my roof cos he's just a year plus now close to 2. I just discovered the surname the mother used to register the boy is her real dad that they never lived nor stay together. What should i do? is this really true love or i'm fooling myself? I've been taking care of this boy for more than a year now and this is happening.

Please, what should i do? Thanks and God bless.

Initially I never knew she had a son but when i got to know i accepted my fate and moving on.
Result of Immaturity & Desperation - I second your motion 100%.

kenoyad:
this is a result of desperation, how can you settled down with a woman you didn't really know? if you have dated deeply for at least six months, you would know she's a single mother even if she didn't tells you and that would have led to the end of the relationship. imagine, the child is not even on her name but on the father's name. I'm sure you still entrust your life and future in such a woman's hand? no one is above mistakes oooooo, but if it's me here, she's a single mother again cos I would break up with her without any hesitation.

You deserves an AWARD plus a trailer-load of cash price for your wise advise.

rychard:
First she didn't tell you about the boy, next she names the boy by another man's name.

Bro, you need to start asking the right question(s), so you don't end up old and miserable, and pls in the name of heaven , take your daughter for a paternity test..

You are absolutely right. The statement from the governor and comments from IPOB leader will take away votes from an ibo presidential candidate in the future.

flyca:
Chai! Unproductive, divisive statement!
Not nice nah, Governor Sir.
Some things are better left unsaid.

Dr. Alex Ekwueme is a Honest, Humble and God fearing Nigerian president that never was just like chief Obafemi Awolowo. He was the most educated Nigeria politicians since independence.
He would have got my vote (I am a Yoruba) if he had the opportunity to run for the office of the president in the 80s, and in 1999 before PDP hand over the presidential ticket to baba iyabo.
What a nation?.
The nation that wasted great people like Obafemi Awolowo, Tai Solarin, Sam Mbakwe, rejected someone like Balarabe Musa and Paul Unogo is like a petro tank going down the hill without a driver - what a nation? - SMH.

Only a brainless person like you would agree with your trash comment.

Useless man. He betrayed Awolowo despite everything Yorubas did to help igbos get good education in the 70's

Thanks for the Gospel comments - this forum has few jobless and frustrated people whose only form of joy is trash comments - it is time to band those bunch of slowpoke.

mamoostella:
What is this Country turning into?
Why all these tribalism for goodness sake? Can't we just move forward and be united as a people? Why this bad blood?
Must our reaction to issues always be so biased and prejudiced? A criminal is a criminal and can hail from any state in the Country because man is inherently evil until he discovers himself. We even have criminals abroad. So why this parochial reasonings and comments?
Which one is Afonja or IPOB in this matter now? Lets change please

You need deliverance asap before you end up under the bridge - smh.

squash47:
AFONJA

Amen in Jesus Almighty Name.

FortifiedCity:
By this time next week, I decree that that baby will be out of the hospital, hale and hearty.

Congratulations baby

This type of trash has become your only way of therapy, keep it up - you WILL reap what you sow. smh.

AFONJAPIG:
the rate Yoruba people commit suicide this day's is very alarming

Wise Comment. His decision is a big time punishments to his children. May the Merciful God Bless his children in All things in Jesus Almighty Name - RIP.

ifyalways:
Wife just died? My empathy goes to the children. Surviving as an orphan in Nigeria no be beans.

BTW, wrong timing by Kwasu. Lay off a man mourning his wife? They should have used their discretion

GodDeyCraze:
Your grand mama na mumu

Do you have to result to insult? - smh.

May the Good Lord, the God of multiplication Bless your mother ABUNDANTLY - in good health and long life she will (by GOD's Grace) enjoy the fruits of her labour in Jesus Almighty Name.

1StopRudeness:
Babe... When you say a man had sex with you... Are u trying to tell us u were raped, or because u were young u feel it doesn't qualify as sex
You've eaten ur cake or should I say ur cake has been eaten.. which ever way you want to still have the cake.
Uve made mistake by lieing, u now went further to cover up the lie by making ur inexperienced to husband to feel he got a tear rubber..... If the guilty conscience is too much for you.. Tell him.. But brace ur self... The storm that will follow will come in Serious batches...
But this is my advice... Bone the parole... There is a saying :let sleeping dogs lie..... Ur case is a perfect example of such a saying...

No use ur hand pour sand for ur garri ooo

You are ASOLUTELY Right.

One day, one day you will stand before God Almighty the creator of heaven and earth.

Daeylar:
Thank God crew jumping in to praise their God, while conveniently ignoring the fact that it's their God that made and watched this woman suffer unnecessarily for 20 years

Lemme come and be going.

Gospel Truth. You are Blessed in Jesus Name.

Mikeal09:
For those who think stories like this shouldn't be online, I understand.
But, these stories aint for you. However, many a deppressed souls at suicide's last call did visit the internet only to get their hopes revived and one reason life is worth living, hope you understand!

Matthew 25 vs. 34-40 in action - I will rather invest my tithes in this Godly-Samaritan Ministry. May the Good Lord Blessed this beautiful lady in All things in Jesus Almighty Name.

Naira's Purchasing Power is by far greater than most African countries - believe me.

Zenithpeak:
I wanted to do an online transaction with an online fashion brand abroad. Of course, I always make sure I check the exchange rate before I place an order, to know how much I would be spending in naira.

As usual, after calculating the exchange rate, what I wanted to get was on the high side. I just became humble and cancelled the transaction.

I started thinking if the disparity between dollar and naira is so insane, what will be the exchange rate of the naira to the currencies of other African countries. I picked 25 random African countries and compared their currencies with the naira.

Before I started my findings, I felt only a few African countries could have stronger currencies than the naira but boy I was shocked and ashamed with what I came up with.

Check out the latest exchange rate of the Nigerian naira compared to some random African countries' currencies.

1. South Africa - 1 Rand = 26.28 Naira

2. Ethiopia - 1 Birr = 13.30 Naira

3. Ghana - 1 Cedi = 81.96 Naira

4. Gambia - 1 Dalasi = 7.60 Naira

5. Kenya - 1 Shilling = 3.48 Naira

6. Liberia - 1 Dinar = 3.05 Naira

7. Swaziland - 1 Lilangeni = 26.55 Naira

8. Tunisia - 1 Dinar = 145.90 Naira

9. Zambia - 1 kwacha = 36.7 Naira

10. Angola - 1 kwanza = 2.17 Naira

11. Lesotho - 1 Loti = 26.55 Naira

12. Libya - 1 Dinar = 262.77 Naira

13. Morrocco - 1 Dirham = 38.32 Naira

14. Madagascar - 1 Ariary = 0.12 Naira

15. Mauritius - 1 Rupee = 10.5 Naira

16. Malawi - 1 kwacha = 0.50 Naira

17. Mozambique - 1 Metical = 5.8Naira

18. Namibia - 1 Dollar = 26.55 Naira

19. Seychelles - 1 Rupee = 26.38 Naira

20. Sudan - 1 pound = 53.89 Naira

21. Botswana - 1 Pula = 34.60 Naira

22. Cape Verde - 1 Escudo = 3.82 Naira

23. Algeria - 1 Dinar = 3.18 Naira

24. Egypt - 1 Pound = 20.45 Naira

25. Eritrea - 1 Nakata = 23.52 Naira

The currencies of some worse economies in Africa have better value than the naira.

So the question is - Do you think Nigeria's naira is the weakest currency in Africa and the world at large and what is the way forward to strengthen the naira.

Great Analysis.

Freetech:
I think you need to understand dynamics of economy of Nations. Production determined the strength of currency of any country. Nigeria economic production is currently at its lowest ebb because of the problem with crude price. Note, this is our major production.

Any country that find herself in this type of situation must devalue her currency to encourage exportation and discourage importation. Production to meet local need and for export will increase.

In 2007 - 2009 both us and Britain devalue their currency more than 3 time because of recession. Even Ghana you put here had to divide their currency by 1000 to have current value

Finally, this have nothing to do with the quality of life in the country but to encourage production. TURKISH LIRA. IS THE MOST USELESS CURRENCY IN THE WORLD BUT TURKEY HAVE BETTER ECONOMY AND QUALITY OF LIFE THAN ANY OF AFRICAN COUNTRY UP THERE.

The little gain we have in non oil export and rice production wouldn't have Bern NC possible without the ddevaluation.

WONDERFUL - more Wisdom.

rychard:
I've been in somewhat similar situation and I can confirm some unspoken thing here;

1) you're closer to your mum, so you listen a lot to her stories, especially about your dads family and his boss and how they treated your family. This gets you upset, but despite how angry you get you know you can't do anything because you don't have the resources, so you either question God or those who you feel should have done more, for example the first born, your elder brother, you think he is too naive and unconnected/scared to do what a first child should do. You see him as someone who knows how to ginger while in the house but lose his voice when outside the extended family.

2) everything smells like a conspiracy, you begin to hate the kids of those people involved,,any progress they make you think its someone connected to your fathers wealth, you curse your self for not knowing about the dealings of your dad, you even, secretly hate him for leaving his own family outside these transactions , and you think the current state of suffering was as a result of your Dads wrong decisions and wickedness of his friends/family.

These were the two strongest feelings I had when I faced a somewhat similar situation... But this is what I did...

1) Stop listening too much to my mum wailings, she is bittered and that's okay, but there are lots of reasons she may tell you stories that are totally unrelated to drive home her point, this late night discussions and whispers, will not only make you miserable, you won't be able to sleep or even concentrate on what matters.,and will expose you to making emotional decisions. The money isn't the reason you guys are in the situation,there are many folks whose dad died without leaving a kobo for them, they still had to strive to make it alive.

2) focus on yourself and on making more earnings for your self/family, if you earn well, in a year, N3m is chicken change. Don't make the N3m for the truck your only hope, let it be in your prayers, make a final humble appeal to the parties involved and let it go while you begin to put together small pieces of evidence on a low key, but focus more of your time, effort and resources on making money for yourself and family.

3) Play the game, Emotions cloud reasoning,and make us bitter , life in itself is a game, learn to place your iron hand in a velvet glove, move like darkness and when you hit, strike like thunder. And when you do, let it be with a smile on your face and sweet words on your lips.
I got back friendly with my uncles, I learned to smile when I was angry and cry when I was happy.. I was able to learn the family business from them, train some of my siblings and provided for my family, when it was time, I gathered evidence , engaged two of them in a lengthy legal battle recovered three properties of my family and got money to begin my own business.. Life is not a bed of roses bro... Don't wear your emotions of your face, stop worrying and start working.. It won't be easy...

This is my two cents from experience.

Big Time BONEhead, if you got nothing positive to contribute Just Shut your stinking mouth. Not even a goat would ask such a stupid question- smh.

alexistaiwo:
Let me ask you a simple question.
If the role was to be reversed and it happened to be your dad owing his boss wife N3m.

Will you pay the money after the demise of your dad?
Your answer to the question will guide you through.

This evil-woman does not deserves to be granted bail. The dare devil will run away.

Watch this movie - Fatal ATTRACTION, you will thank me later.
