abba190:
what about jobless young guys? they should go and die?

That's what the tithe is meant for: The Levites, including the priest (they don't work, but represent the Israelites before the Lord) - this is where true pastors stand, the Fatherless and Widows (those who are disadvantaged).

Having clarified on the above, I don't think any guy is jobless because he cannot find a job. He is probably jobless because he has not got the kind of job he wants. So, he has a choice.

TotoNaRubber:
Does anyone here know any Nigerian Pastor who I can pay tithes to, I feel I have to contribute 10% of my last monthly income to any Nigerian pastor, I have N860k to pay right now which represents 10% of my last month's salary.

Also, is it advised to give the 860k to one pastor or to two pastors.
Please drop the contact details of any pastors you know below.

Thank you

Your 10% should go to the church where you receive spiritual nourishment but If you don't attend any and you have the urge to give, then carefully identify the Fatherless and Widows around you and give to them.

Peking:
This is very sensitive information you are requesting for , you need to be very careful to be able to get the right information.
I would have like to have a chat with you but if you want are interested we can talk

nairalandankrah:
The indigenes are being terrorised!

I don't know why anyone would wish evil on another.
I just called to confirm that this news is false.

We need to stop perpetrating fake news.

Amazing!

What's the current return on your N50m real estate investment?

If you make as little as N5m from it, you can partner with like-minded people to raise a seed fund for the e-Marketplace you intend to set up.
You are very likely to succeed with this business here too.

If you also choose to relocate, I believe you will equally do well.

I think its time for any igbo in Tinubu's government to resign.

To be objective, what are the expectations for Tinubu?

1. There seems to be strong disapproval towards Tinubu from many quarters, extending from the campaign period to post-Supreme Court judgment.

2. While he appointed individuals from various backgrounds, critics argue against seeing these appointments as attempts to win favor. Some have expressed disinterest in his administration, cautioning against being swayed by appointments.

3. Observers often highlight negative aspects of Tinubu's administration, overshadowing positive reports. When forced to acknowledge positives, credit is often redirected to his appointees or others, distancing it from Tinubu.

4. Calls for Tinubu to comply with a court order, like the release of Nnamdi Kanu, have varied responses. Some appeal for adherence to legal decisions, while others reject it, fearing potential indebtedness to Tinubu.

5. Despite appointing individuals from supportive regions, concerns about marginalization persist, demonstrating the challenges of balancing regional interests.

In moving forward, there is a need for unity within the Igbo nation, transcending extremes like Biafra or mere sociocultural groups. Establishing a collective with clear objectives can better articulate the region's desires from the government.

Furthermore, it's essential to address the prevailing trend where financial status dictates one's level of respect. Urgent attention is required, especially among South Easterners, to avoid diluting their influence with a multitude of opinions, hindering effective representation at the national level.

In conclusion, this perspective is offered without bias, aiming to encourage constructive dialogue.

BOSSkesh:
Losers
Usman Ododo is the man for the job

Why? I think we should be fair to the people who have been in hardship for 8 years now. While I don't have anything against Ododo, there is no guarantee that he won't follow in the footsteps of GYB.

SDM may not be perfect, but we know what he can do. He is better than GYB or his potential proxy in my opinion.

20m cash ready.

Wotowotoman:
Nigerian private universities are crap. All of them!

I disagree with you a million times.

I believe that if Covenant University were in Europe, it would have been listed as one of the best 100 Universities in the world today. That school na school.

I heard Afe Babalola is good too, but I haven't been a student there.

kk2027:

Who is stopping you from adding and removing 5 zeros?

Are you being sarcastic? I only pointed out that things are bad with the Naira, but the GHC is not a better currency.

My regards.

kk2027:
After all the English and defending failure

You need at least 80k naira just to get 1k Ghana cedis

$1 is actually equal to about 120,000 Cedis if you factor in the fact that 4 zeros were wiped away from the old Cedis to arrive at the current one some years ago.

ican2020:
That’s good but why would a first class degree holder beg court not to release his academic records

Many Nigerians like celebrating their achievements and I even expected him as a first class degree holder to authorize the court to even publish his amazing performance on social media for all to see

Perhaps to keep you and I glued to that, but not the ongoing economic hardship in order to buy time.

Don't tell her not to come o.


Tell her, mummy I just put to bed, I still need significant medical attention now. I will send you money for transport and to get a few things for me as soon as the doctor certifies me fit. Thank you for all your prayers ma.

Tallesty1:
But you are not the guy and one will definitely meet ten guys like him before meeting someone like you.

You don't help when you don't have, the OP doesn't have.

Sincerely, that money is supposed to be inside his jeans small pocket.

Let me tell you how an average Nigerian reasons, this includes your family and mine.

If you give a Nigerian 1K, he or she will think you have a minimum of 20k somewhere because they won't part with 1K if they don't have at least 10K.

That guy didn't believe that the N5h was the OP's last money.

You guys can keep telling him that he did well to make him feel good but deep down you all won't give out your last N500 to a stranger to go and get change while you are being interviewed.

Letting him step out of sight with that money was careless.

Your logic is correct. However, there are people whose nature isn't just like that. They believe in humanity even if they have been betrayed before. One may say they are not logical, or that they are careless, but they don't intend to be. Once they see people in need, they respond without looking back.

In my experience, I can guarantee that the guy who went away with that money will NEVER be as successful as the guy he took it from.

MostImportant:
I have noticed that some Nigerians have a way of putting all the blames on politicians as the ones destroying the country when they themselves are equally contributing.

A fellow job seeker turned back and do evil to me for the good intention I had for him. I was only trying to be a human which of course I always try to be no matter how tight it is with me. Not as though I have but I would share the little i have when I see someone so in need.

I met this guy in an interview venue and we got talking based on job search experiences, how we got to hear about the very one we were at, about the company, tips we can use to perform better in the interview and all that.

I think we were more than 40 in that place and interview was based on first come, you pick a number based on your arrival time and wait to be called in.

So the guy went in first before me, and came out to meet me waiting. On coming out, I tried to ask him to hint me based on some questions asked inside. The interview was scheduled for 10am but it started way late, around to 12pm. So not long after which he came out, he started complaining of hunger. I told him I am hungry too, and truly nothing entered my mouth that morning, so I was seriously hungry too. From hunger, he brought in the issue of how he managed to get to the venue due to lack of transport fare. He then asked me if I can assist with any amount to pay his way back. To be very open with him, I removed the last N500 that was with me and showed him. I told him I am the same. We are all struggling as we don't have a job yet. In fact, why I have N500 in my pocket is because I woke up early enough to prepare which I partly trekked to the place just to save some expenses. Just because I saw frustration in him and the humanity in me won't let me be, I wanted to give him N150 from the money while I keep N350 for myself. From our conversation, my distance was even farer than his.

So I wanted to go out with him to go look for change but just then, it was my turn to go in for the interview. Already the money was in his hand, so he said I should go in for my interview while he goes out to look for change and come back. I thought I was dealing with a human being, not knowing I was making a mistake. Leaving him with the money was the mistake I made. I'm only human after all, and I have learnt my lesson but it won't stop me from being good.

To cut the story short, that guy ran away with my only N500. That was all that was with me in and out. I mean home and abroad, all with me was the N500. Account balance looks like a radio frequency - 87.9. Laughable. So nothing was reachable any where else but even after telling him, he still decided to pay me back with evil.

To think he is a job seeker and he still behave that way, I won't curse him even though he succeeded in making me trek for more than 2 hours, going home with an empty stomach.

May he reap whatever he sows. I'm sure he won't come back to the place even if he's called up for the job, which I doubt though. And I pray I am shortlisted for the job, to bring joy to me.

Although a sad one for me but I pity his life.

Sorry about that experience. Be assured that you will be very successful in life.

Drop your bank details.

People should tread with caution.

All these cutlasses and sticks won't achieve anything if simple laws are put in place to cripple your sources of livelihood. There is a reason the likes of Dangote, Ote$, Adenuga, Jim Ovia, TOE et.,al never outrightly display partisanship.

The Igbos are business people, investors in Lagos. Do your thing, earn your living and leave them to do their politics. If you will support anyone, you don't need to come out and start airing it so loudly.. Do what you feel will help your cause. As it is, whether GRV or Sanwo Olu, you guys would still succeed anyways, but now you seem to have created avoidable problems for yourselves.

All you guys needed to do was just to choose a few people to reach out to the governor of Lagos State and resolve matters and get your businesses back on track. You cannot fight the government and win! If Lagos State decides to turn the whole of LADIPO to a world class specialist hospital today, do you guys think you can stop them? No! They will just compensate you and go on with the project.

I say all these because this whole imbroglio is needless. What do you think you would have achieved with GRV? Would he have given you new lands? You can buy wherever you want when you need it with or without him. Now you are about to throw away your source of livelihood carelessly.

sat70:
2m. I don't even know the cost of the engine. I can pay 2m today. I'm in Lagos

Complete engine could be as high as 2.7m

I know somebody who got married
Had children (the number she wanted)
Set up a business with zero... Now doing very well - with retainership of millions.
Bought a property - no longer a tenant
Bought 2 cars (both sweet SUVs)
Grew investment to the point of returns exceeding her annual gross.

Mufasa27:
She is dead !! She died in 2009

Oh, my! She was quite lonely for a while.

Mufasa27:
I used to tell me friends back then that dino and haruna had something in common , for those people who have been to the zoological garden Ibadan you would know who haruna was😂😂😂

RIP Haruna 😂

While I don't agree with you calling my former Senator Gorilla, I remember Lt. Haruna.
I was just asking my younger brother is Imade is still alive.

tobolos:
What if the the apartment is put at #500,000?
Would that have made sense to a senseless fellow like you.
I don't know why idiot like this just like hopping up and down to vent their anger on their miserable lives.

The idiot com end with "no offence intended".

Take your frustrations to the poll today. Useless party agent

Thank you.

IGBOSON1:
Them remaining silent at this point means they want their Yoruba brother to win but don’t have the bottle to declare it publicly because they have a lot of Igbo members in their church!

Forget Atiku….he’s not a factor in this particular case!

You must watch against tribalism because it makes one narrow sighted and minded.

Bishop Mike Okonkwo, Pst. Lazarus of the Lord's Chosen and a host of other fathers of the faith have also not come out to endorse anyone publicly.

Why not just always state your reasons for supporting a particular person and persuade people to come to your side, especially because you desire a new Nigeria.

@Igboson1, people are people no matter where they are from. Learn to appreciate that and see how good life can be. I have seen Igbos that are very tribalistic, I have also seen many that are detribalized. In fact, the man who helped me the most and supported my Master's program then is Igbo from Abia state, I am married to an Igbo woman and my mother-in-law once told me if people were to come to life again, she would still want me as her son-in-law.

There are tribalistic Yorubas as well as Hausas and the rest. But Liberal ones exist very well too.

Here lies wickedness.

Agents want to take 20% for renting out somebody's property. Even professional fees is 10% and still negotiable.

We must work on our attitude to life and well-being of our neighbours. If you charged 10% Agency and 10% agreement, you would have helped in making somebody else's life easier.

I know the above may mean nothing to many, but actions like this one right here contribute greatly to corruption.

Please no offence is intended.
#beachangeagent

What's up now?

People should vote their choice and others do the same.

Enough of the insults and name calling. We must avoid desperation!

If we don't kill the current trend, even if the next president does well, some of us may never appreciate it because we may be wishing him or her to fail.

Op, I have read a lot of what you have posted, in fact, I had to review so many of your threads yesterday to get those "truths" that made you arrive at your conclusions. I have a lot to say about many of your views, but I will like to say that the Alpha Draconian 4th dimension humanoid you placed there doesn't rule over me.

Does it exist, I am sure it does. Is it one, I can assure you, they have a kingdom and they exist in the lower part of the earth, a set of unhappy creatures. However, your faith in, and work with the person of Christ creates a bridge that takes you over that kingdom and sustains you above it. I know this for a fact, I have seen it and I live there.

For those who are seeing these evil creatures around and all, I will be sincere with you, you all need to have a relationship with Jesus the Saviour. You are either being oppressed by demons or possed by it. You must call to the Saviour for deliverance.

Share pictures pls.

I like this...

Please can we have a link to PO's and AA' sessions?

What type of house? Where is it located?

desiredhome:
This is delusional statements.....
In all the Pentecostal churches how has their welfare been organized to favour the need?

Don't know why the majority of blacks are so wicked/evil minded ......

Sometimes I feel some of you just use words without necessarily having appreciable understanding of them.

I attend a pentecostal church and we have a Welfare department that works. I know we have paid house rents, procured and supplied relief materials, visited prisons etc. with the little we have. The fact that the department isn't active in some places doesn't mean it isn't anywhere.

Meanwhile, what brings black people and wickedness into any of these??

Anyways, your call. Enough said.

HardMirror:
he is mad now right? Christians are terrible people. ALL OF THEM. Dont be fooled at how they pretend to be nice. I know LordReed wont agree with me, but the religion it self makes you a bad person. If you are not wicked how can you believe you are going to heaven and happy unbelievers are going to hell? There are a lot of fundamentals of this wicked religion that proves that even the nicest christian is a terrible human.
See how so called Christians are insulting the man. They are not even concerned for what he must be passing through that led him down this path. Even if you are my mum and dad and you are a christian, i see you as a terrible human being cos that is what you are

If the bolder were correct, no Christian would preach to anyone!

As for the man in question, while I agree that the Welfare department of the church should have been there for him and others like him that may be in the church, I think this his action showed that he never really saw himself as giving unto the Lord, as he claimed. If he did, he would have asked the Lord for help. Many may argue over this, but I know the Lord answers prayers 1st hand.

Moreover, I should warn all followers of Christ that the principles of the scripture are for our learning. Before any years of drought comes those of plenty. Always save at least 20% of what you earn.
