I will not attend any program I know a pastor charges to preach
1st pastors are gifted money on the prerogative of their hosts, not based on negotiations
Secondly mercy chinwo emanate from Christ embassy, where singers like her are well treated. Nobody should charge for rendering any sort of service in the house of God

If you surrender your life on the altar of service, you ve also declared that you believe God will cater for your needs
okay, try become a gospel singer and do your own like dat.
PoliticsRe: Dangote Lowers Petrol Loading Cost To ₦‎815/Litre by Mandate1: 9:09am On Mar 14, 2025
Odobaone:
This man can sell petrol for #650 comfortably and still run business but you see grid. Thank God for competition. Let importation and price war continue.
I'm still surprised you think Dangote can unilaterally fix the price of petrol without govt intervention. Whatever price he's selling today has the handwriting of the govt in it.

People are actually too politically un-savvy to see that election is already coming. Tinubu had between now and December to convince Nigerians on whatever economic magic he's performing.

Bobloco:
The excitement and euphoria of being sworn in as Nigeria's president overtook Tinubu’s reasoning, which led him to make that thoughtless statement: 'subsidy is gone.'

That thoughtless statement, followed by the floating of the naira, brought untold hardships on Nigerians, and this country will never recover from it.

Subsidy removal was supposed to be a gradual process, ensuring first that our refineries were operational and implementing measures to mitigate its effects on Nigerians.

There was no justification for the price of petrol to rise from below ₦200 to over ₦1,350 per liter in such a short time.

It was pure wickedness and draconian by the Tinubu regime in the way it handled the subsidy removal and floating of the naira.

If Dangote Refinery and other refineries were operational before the subsidy removal, the price of petrol wouldn't have gone beyond ₦400 per liter, and transportation costs, food prices, goods, and services wouldn’t have skyrocketed to the extent that they have
the clear reduction in prices by Dangote has shown that the entire subsidy regime was a charade.

I don't know what was chasing Mr. Tinubu to hurriedly remove subsidy when he can wait few months for Dangote to come up.

They are called worshippers and are not supposed to earn a living doing that. They are in the order of levites. They can do other works or businesses that can earn them money.

So we should pay them to lead people to Christ through their worship. Wonderful

Did God inspire her to go to court?

They now have Special assistants who tell churches how much they will pay the singers to come and worship God in their churches. So the altar has now become a concert stage. Lift up your hands in worship, yet your pay must be wired into your account unfailingly

We claim to be like Christ who was called all sorts of names and yet he didn't command fire and brimstone, yet every little thing we run to court to claim defamation.
Let's talk about Pst Chris, TB Joshua, Adeboye, Oyedepo etc that has swam in the ocean of defamation, how many people did they sue?

What's the difference between the so called gospel ministers and secular singers??
don't you work to earn a living? So because they are gospel singers dey should starve àbi? While the pastors fly private jets

I was expecting Lagos to be on the list. The last few days have been blazing hot.

And I was surprised to see Oyo on the list, cos I move between Lagos and Ibadan all year, and was in Ibadan last week. Lagos is definitely hotter than Ibadan right now. This is based on my personal experience
Lagos is hotter than which Oyo? In the entire southern Nigeria, I don't think any state can be hotter than Oyo and Ondo. The rocks on this places contribute to the heatwave.

Don't be discouraged because of my opinion or consensus here. It may as well serve you more than us. I believe you cam easily access Skyrun here in Nigeria, unlike Ecoflow, which I think it is a plus.

So, cheers.
it gave me 11hrs use without home theatre usage. If it can give me 5hrs with home theatre, then I'm fine.

We talked about Skyrun on this thread if you read it chapter by chapter.

The reason many are hesitant about the Skyrun power station is because of experience with their other electronics. Also, no accessible reviews from other users. Another is that it is just a 1-year warranty, unlike Ecoflow, which is 5.

I think you will be the first to use that Skyrun on this thread. I may be wrong.

Do you have a freezer?

Enjoy.
you're absolutely right on this. Buying it was a mistake anyway, but I'm optimistic it will serve me.

Skyrun? That brand isn't a solid brand, I have listened to how a refrigerator of the same brand makes so much noise and doesn't even cool great, I'm certain the quality of this skyrun power station cannot in anyway compare to that of ECOFLOW, go check the millions of positive reviews on Ecoflow products.
Don't just look at the Wh, inverter power draw Is important, the percentage of that displaces the battery WH, some power stations have as poor as 70 percent efficiency, e.g 70%* of 1000wh-1000wh leaves you with real world 700wh.
I just got the skyrun 2000W Power Station. My first usage isn't bad after a full charge. So far I've used about 9hrs on 50' Samsung TV, dstv and standing fan and it's still on. Will test it with home theatre system tomorrow after full charge to see how long it lasts also.

Would have gone for the ECOFLOW due to the positive reviews, this was an after thought. But so far, the skyrun isn't bad.

D00msDay:
Trump should take it easy on Zelensky. His making it look like Zelensky was the aggressor. Zelenskys crime was his attempt to joining Nato. Putin did the invasion, the war was and is being fought in Ukrainian territory yet making the young man look like his the one at fault. I'm not supporting Trump on this.

A peace deal should also favour Ukraine. U can't draft a one sided peace deal and expect Zelensky to rush and grab it wit joy.
the US will regret this Trump in few years time. He's not a good leader.

You can't blame the government for your ignorance.

You go dey Nigeria, you no get work but pride no go allow you enter farm.

Foreign AffairsRe: You Showed Restraint By Not Hitting ‘scumbag’ Zelenskyy – Russia Hails Trump by Mandate1: 1:40pm On Mar 01, 2025
MERCHANDISER:
I just watch all Zelensky's video with Trump now. his actions at the Oval Office show that he doesn't have the experience or skills needed to handle politics and international diplomacy. His behavior was either a sign of inexperience or of someone high on drugs, and it raises questions about his ability to lead Ukraine during such an important time. Whether you like it or not, Ukraine is a key country in Europe right now, and it needs a strong, capable leader. I think it's time for Zelensky to step down and let someone more experienced take over.

What he did during his meeting with the U.S. President was embarrassing. Even someone like Putin, who is one of the most powerful leaders in the world, wouldn’t act that way. The idiot reiterate the same propaganda narratives in front of the American leadership, who are well-informed through their extensive intelligence networks, was both tactless and counterproductive. Claiming that Ukraine still has sufficient manpower to continue the war, accusations that Putin violated the Minsk agreements, and assertions that Russia disregards prisoner exchange deals—all delivered in such a setting—only serve to undermine Zelensky's credibility. saying these things in front of the U.S., a country with global intelligence and the one providing Ukraine with support, makes no sense. It’s clear he us not being honest, and it hurt his credibility.

The fact is Zelensky doesn’t really want peace because if the war ends, he might lose his position as president. Peace would also mean he’d have to answer for his actions and decisions during the war. Ukraine deserves a leader who can handle these challenges wisely and work toward real peace and stability.
I need a dislike button.

Not true but if trump decides to cut off funding the senseless war and leave Ukraine to the mercy of Russia what do u think will happen?

Trump isn't forcing anyone to take a deal but nobody is going to use Americas tax payers money to fund a senseless war that shouldn't have happened.

Trump is only applying common sense.
a senseless war that shouldn't have happened. Who started the senseless war? Is there a guarantee that the senseless war won't start again after few months of stoppage? Madman Putin wants to unite old USSR, so nothing will deter him. The West must sit-up and stop depending on USA

The problem with you is id that you choose every position that is against the Trump position.

Do you truly prefer the Biden method where by the war would go on endlessly and Ukraine will continue to be a mess?
Zeelensky was the guest of the white house but he chose to make a spectacle in front of the cameras. He is not ready for peace. He wants the war to go on forever so let him go and continue his war.
At least, he had your blessings and support.
is this how to make peace in international diplomacy? Trump is only trying to give Ukraine a bitter option after dey have reached a deal with Putin. That's pure rubbish. This is neva a peace deal but a treacherous Greek gift

Instead of answering the simple question, you are going on a rant about enemies this and that. What is the price of food in your area, simple! Mind you, even with the slight decline in food prices, we are nowhere near where we were a year or two ago in terms of relative prices of commodities, petrol, electricity etc, so if I were you, I would keep quiet.

@topic, beans has slightly come down in price compared to last month.
I'm yet to see any decline in whr I stay. In short, it keeps getting worst.

Even though I don't understand how the court came to the conclusion of its judgement, I still can't trust the judicial system as some of the judges (no concrete source) are loyalist to some members of a political party.

Can Russian president be talked to like this by Vance, what ever you do in this life, depend on God and yourself, this really hurts, trump is trying to stop a 3rd world war, its there something that is not being said about thus issue. Great America is defending Russia for what exactly, trump and his folks just made it look like they are scared of Russia or they are Russian friends. In my layman opinion zelensky has shown strength and resilience. History will remember this. I pray trump reconsider this issue because most countries will loose trust for America after this. I am for peace but not on this oppressive terms. Is diplomacy about the truth or manipulation.
succinctly put. My love for Trump died after today. He's not a logical leader but a money interested bourgeoisie
