Family › Re: Divorce Is Not Always The Solution by mastermaestro(m): 8:22pm On Oct 31, 2016

If you divorce once, you will most likely divorce again! Check and recheck your choice very well at the point of going into marriage. Once marriage is entered into with a wrong partner, from that moment on it is all about damage control. Simply put, rescue your future at the point of choice making.

Family › Re: Urgent Advice Needed: Should I Wait For Her? by mastermaestro(m): 1:55pm On Oct 31, 2016

Loveprotocol:
Well I am not contemplating marriage because others are telling me to, I know I am ripe for it. As for my emotions spilling over to my dream life, I disagree, cos one of the greatest gifts I have is seeing visions, dreams and their interpretation. But I agree I have shown too much affection. I am hanging on because I am in love with her and can't stop thinking about her, it's weird when you just can't describe how you feel about someone when you barely even know them but it's as if you've known them all your life.

Never force someone into marriage with you, never ever. You are trying to make it happen with your all. On the issue of visions and dreams, you should be extremely careful. I know a handful of folks with your kind of gift who still ended up with the wrong partner in marriage. When it comes to marriage, the devil uses everything he has to derail those who appear to be very spiritually sound, especially the ones with prophetic gifts. Watch well, dude.

Is this all you could come up with as advice? SMH. @op, please hold on to the things you've heard and seen. Never kill the love in your heart, so that when she comes around you won't struggle to be the man that chased her. And if she's not the one, someone else better than her will appreciate you for who you are. You come across as a great and good man. How I wish I had a sister, I would have hooked you up, maybe @Raina80 could help.

Since you are a Christian, I'll attempt to look at this from a faith and revelatory perspective.

1. Are you really sure that she is the one? There was a pastor that pressured a woman into marrying him even when she initially wasn't interested in the union. All because a well-known prophet (of blessed memory) and another prophet 'confirmed' that the said woman was the one. The said pastor died this year. He quit ministry out of frustration by the woman that was 'prophesied' for him.

2. Never force anyone into marriage with you even if it was GOD'S will. Never! You may find it difficult to understand this now.

3. GOD can change HIS mind about a person when the person in question falls from GOD'S original plan. Something could go wrong between the time of initial approval and the actual event. Be sensitive to changes.

4. You seem to have been taken over by emotion on this issue.

5. You also are pushing to marry largely because everyone wants you to. This could blur your ability to sense danger.

6. Are there other options other than this lady?

7. That she is acting difficult does not automatically mean that she is the 'one' for you. This is a general flawed assumption. You are hanging on simply because she isn't giving in easily.

8. Dreams sometimes are slaves to one's momentary feelings.

You will be amazed how much wealth he has amassed being an actor in the north. And the truth is that actors from the North are usually richer than their southern counterparts. They are like gods to their fans up in the north.

Adam Zango has been singing and producing song along with his acting career. In actual fact a lot of the northern actors are also their music artiste funny but true and their fans love them like that.

It's your choice! Every entity including where you work, school, and your family has a head, so does this world. GOD is the head. You will answer to HIM when the time comes. Heaven or hell, your choice to make. Others can state it euphemistically, I won't. Accept JESUS CHRIST and be saved to an eternal life with GOD in Heaven, or live as though you were your own god and secure for yourself a one-way ticket to hell.

There is no compulsion in Christianity! Choose whom you wish to serve. To GOD be the glory, I have chosen to follow JESUS CHRIST forever!

AreaFada2:
When Ewuare I came in 1440, there were big men wielding power anyhow in Benin then too. Oba's reforms looked impossible then too. Remember things were tougher then and there was no much history of such change to draw on.

Nothing he has said so far has not been expected of him. If anything, it has been rather mild so far.

Erediauwa was extremely lenient & diplomatic. Of the old school.

But Nigerians take leniency as an excuse to misbehave. Like they did under Shagari & GEJ.

But Benin is a unique place when it comes to monarchy. Even in the face of European tyranny then.

Time of handling serious matters with kids glove is over.

You would want to acknowledge that monarchy is losing its ancient reverence and influence worldwide except in places where it operates on a theocratic foundation. Highhandedness cost Rehoboam the throne, while wisdom plus diplomacy secured the throne for Solomon.

This Oba faces an ignoble fate laden with public criticism, defiance and unresolvable conflicts at his doorstep. GOD forbid! But this looks very likely. Those urging him on, as they did Rehoboam, have no idea what being a leader entails.

Did you also listen to the language he used on Dangote during his coronation? When he spoke about the Gelegele seaport, he said that Dangote "must" investment in its establishment. People in the hall turned and looked at one another in amusement. They were surprised why an incoming monarch would employ such undiplomatic language in wooing non-indigenous investors.

Now you understand my points.

I repeat, I sense strongly that this Oba stands the inglorious chance of becoming the first Bini monarch whose pronouncement his subjects will openly defy. Mark it. No leader succeeds by ruling with anger.

I hope you know that people are gradually losing their reverence for monarchical institutions. His actions will only facilitate open defiance. That's why I said he should employ caution and wisdom so he does end up like Rehoboam who despised the priceless calmness plus wisdom of his father Solomon, and thus lost control of the kingdom due to high-handedness.

Oba Erediauwa was exceptional in many respects. He ably managed deviant characters (like Esama), with peace as his focus. He was greatly loved and revered because he addressed issues with outstanding diplomacy. The heir should not discard his father's success qualities. It would be regrettable.

Culture › Re: Oba Ewuare II Suspends Community Development Associations In Benin Kingdom by mastermaestro(m): 3:26pm On Oct 25, 2016

The new monarch should be shrewd and cautious in his pronouncements. He shouldn't create crisis in Benin communities after his father tried so hard to ensure there was peace during his time. He needs to consider critically the implications of this pronouncement.

Oshiomhole at a time wanted to dissolve these associations, but he shelved the move after he was advised by those who knew better.

Oba should meet with these associations, exert more control over them, and tax them substantially.

Otherwise, I fear that this oba could become the first Bini monarch whose pronouncement his subjects will open defy. I sense it strongly.

Appallingly, you have stuck to your defective disposition towards the Bini monarch. I'd strongly advise you mind the words you use on recognized institutions and the people that occupy them, especially spiritual institutions if you don't want a woeful life when you manage to advance through youth years.
