Science/Technology › Re: 10 Mysteries That Science Can't Explain by MAYOWAAK: 4:14pm On Sep 04, 2014
I have always felt that people who clutch their Bible, Koran and other religious books in their armpits need to also pause, every now and then, to read scientific journals. If they do not read, at least pause and watch science programs like “Wonders of the Universe.” The world of modern science gives context to everything. The conclusion science will help keen observers arrive at is that these religious books understate God or that God underrepresented himself in them.

It is baffling that Africans who do not know how the fax machine works or how the television signals get into their televisions, are confident about the number of rooms in heaven and the best gate to get in.

These Africans believe that an old woman who lives down the road from them, who is probably suffering from amnesia or Alzheimer disease, is the one who tied the womb of their daughter. But their curiosity does not allow them to find out the science that this old woman uses to remotely get into the womb of their daughter and tie it. Maybe it is similar to the science of the fax machine.

The earth that we live in is 4.6 billion years old. The last dinosaur died out some 65 million years ago. Two hundred thousand years ago, there was no modern human on this earth. No white, no black. No Igbo, no Hausa, no Yoruba.This is just the first chapter of human life on earth. Not even a nuclear war, which is coming down the road, will destroy the world. Not even an asteroid, which will hit the world again, at the earliest 2040, will destroy it. The world will end when our 4.5 billion-year-old sun burns out. The earliest that will happen is 4-5 billion years from now when the sun will enter the red giant phase.

It doesn’t matter how many pilgrimages we Africans go to, the world is not headed to Jerusalem or Mecca. The world is headed to the bosom that modern science has prepared for it.

Scientists are set to unmask God.

agabusta: As at yesterday, it has been blocked with some blocks. But they are yet to put mortar. I will try and take pictures today while passing.
You are absolutely correct.I observed that as well when I passed there a couple of hours ago.

Can we safely conclude that this thread is responsible for that?Our criticisms seems to be working.
Romance › 33 Tested And Trusted Ways To Avoid Infidelity by MAYOWAAK(op): 9:42am On Sep 04, 2014
Have you ever been cheated on?

Have you cheated on your spouse?

Have you ever contemplated cheating on your spouse?

What would you do if you discovered that you have been cheated on?

Questions and more questions.

Before you think of cheating on your spouse, just ask yourself how you would feel if you discovered that your spouse has cheated on you. Broken? Betrayed? Insulted? Mad?

Even the most unfaithful person in the world does not want to be cheated on, because infidelity hurts the cheated deeply... very deeply. It leaves a scar in the heart that does not fade easily.

Luckily, infidelity is not a reflex action: it’s not like sneezing or yawning that happens without planning. For infidelity to take place, it is hatched in the heart, planned for hours, days, weeks, or even months, and then executed with stealth, and maybe repeated many times.

Some married people don't want to be unfaithful to their spouses, but to their regret and shame they find themselves entangled in it. These tips will help such people avoid getting into the trap.

For those who willingly cheat on their spouses because they see it as their right, nothing more needs to be said. For those who cannot help themselves because they have abnormal sex drive or libido, they need to seek medical help or psychological help.

Here are the 33 ways:

1. Avoid offering a lift to someone of the opposite sex when you are alone in the car or when such a person is a stranger or a nodding acquaintance. Even when you have to give a lift to someone of the opposite sex while alone, try as much as possible not to get too personal. It’s better that you are accused of being mute or aloof than being too chatty. And if you want that lift to end there, don't exchange business cards or phone numbers.

2. (Especially for husbands):
As much as possible, avoid hanging out without your wife at spots where alcoholic drinks, cigarettes, party music, and sparsely dressed women are available.

3. (For husbands). Don't encourage girls when they flirt with you. The best time to say no to sex overtures is the very first time the signs manifest.

4. Wear your wedding ring always. And ensure that those around you notice it. Don't give the excuse that marriage is in the heart. When people see that you have no wedding ring, they get the message that you are ready to "mingle" like a single.

5. Wherever you are, make it clear that you are married and happy to be so. Display your family picture on your office desk or wall, if possible. Talk about your spouse and children.

6. The quickest way to lay the sex foundation with the opposite sex is through steamy phone/internet chats. When you are not chatting face-to-face, you are usually emboldened to say things you may not ordinarily be able to say. So avoid steamy internet or phone chats with people of the opposite sex. Don't see it as harmless fun. No. It is serious. Once you do the theory part of the “exam,” you are usually filled with the urge to complete the practicals as soon as possible!

7. Don't be an agony uncle to any lady or an agony aunt to any man, if such a person is not your close relative. That is, if you are a man, for example, don't accept to listen privately to a female colleague's tales of how badly her husband or boyfriends have treated her. Listening to such tales usually elicits sympathy. Sympathy leads to empathy. Empathy elicits a need to offer consolation. That leads to a need to offer a shoulder to lean on. Offering a shoulder to lean on leads to intimacy and there arises a need to reward such a person who has been so understanding and caring. Intimacy mixed with the need for a reward results in sex.

8. If your friend becomes homeless, give him or her money to look for an apartment to live in, if you can. Don't be eager to keep him or her in your home. You may end up losing not just your husband or wife to the homeless person but also your home too. You may end up being turned homeless by the person you are sheltering!

9. For husbands: Don't allow your wife's sister, cousin or house help to wear provocative dresses - bum shorts, bra-less tops, towels over the chest, see-through nightgowns - while at home. Make it clear you won't tolerate any such dressing in your home, no matter how old school you are accused of being.

10. If you have a secretary/PA of the opposite sex, don't stay late alone with them in the office. (Some people even insist on having PAs of the same sex, to avoid temptation).

11. For wives: Whether you prepared a meal or not, please don't allow your female house help or sister to serve the meal to your husband. Men usually get sexually attracted to women who serve them food.

12. Don't have a habit of taking a person of the opposite sex out for lunch or dinner. Except where it is not possible, always make it a group affair.

13. Don't buy romantic or suggestive gifts as birthday presents for people of opposite sex, and don't encourage anyone giving you such. Why should a married person buy a person of the opposite sex items like flowers, pants, bras, boxers, make-up kit, earrings, necklaces? Buy a life-changing book or something good but plain. Alternatively, encourage other colleagues to contribute money for a gift for the celebrant.

14. If you notice that you are getting ideas about a lady or man, think of how to stop it. One way is to tell your spouse about it or joke about it with your spouse. Such a feeling will likely evaporate once discussed.

15. Never get tipsy outside your home. If you want to indulge in alcohol beyond your capacity, do so at home, close to your spouse. Tipsy people are highly sexually vulnerable.

16. For husbands: If any woman is sexually harassing you or tempting you, please tell your wife promptly.

17. For wives: If a male colleague touches your breasts or bum in the name of a joke, warn him firmly or slap the living daylight out of his eyes, even if he is your boss.

18. Don't answer phone calls away from your spouse, or hide your text messages or emails from him/her. Secrecy increases your chances of being unfaithful.

19. Keep away, as much as possible, from your ex. Be friends with them, if need be, but avoid private visits, calls, or gifts. And never be in a room alone with your ex. A former lover is not called an old flame for nothing. And an old fire stick is easier to catch fire!

20. Make your bedroom as private as possible. Don't allow anybody, except your spouse and children, in your bedroom.

21. Avoid being home alone with grown-up house helps, wife's sister, husband's brother, etc.

22. If your doctor, hair stylist, masseur, fitness instructor, dance instructor, etc, is of the opposite sex, be on your guard: be careful how close you get with them.

23. When you quarrel with your spouse, don't place a sex embargo. The family is not United Nations!

24. Avoid exciting yourself with porn or sexually charged materials like books, pictures or videos.

25. Avoid lewd jokes and gestures with the opposite sex. Also don't see steamy movies in the company of a person of the opposite sex who is not your spouse.

26. For husbands: Don't allow your brother/cousin or male driver to be the one who is always taking your wife to the market, salon, etc.

27. Don't pay a visit to the opposite sex who is alone in a hotel room or even a residential home. Even if you are able to resist all temptations, you may be raped! Your drink or food can be spiked.

28. For wives: Avoid actions that are seen as come-on signs. For example, don't touch male colleagues or friends when you chat with them. Don't call men "darling," "sweetheart," etc. Men take such words at face value. Don't giggle repeatedly or roll your eyes at men when you are with them, if you don't have any ulterior motive.

29. For wives: Dress fashionably but not in a sexually provocative way. Men interpret such dressing as an open invitation.

30. Avoid keeping late nights. Darkness increases the urge to explore.

31. Avoid taking drugs, drinks or foods with aphrodisiac qualities, especially when your spouse is not available.

32. Beware of jobs or assignments that will keep you away from your spouse for months or years. Body no be firewood o! You may discover, too late, that even though you have acquired the wealth, you've lost your spouse or home.

33. Finally, whether you believe in God or not, spirituality purges the mind of wanton sexual urges. It also makes one avoid sexual jokes, sexual pictures and sexual gestures that lead to infidelity. When you feel you are moving towards infidelity, read religious literature, meditate, sing or pray, or seek help.

Infidelity in marriage is dishonesty. It is fraud. It is betrayal of trust - the trust of your spouse, the trust of society, and the trust of God.

Keeping the marital bed undefiled is not as difficult as many people claim. Keeping the marriage vow unbroken is honourable. It is sweet. It is fulfilling. Everybody who chooses to do it can do it.

Those who are faithful to their spouses all their lives are those who make conscious efforts to be faithful. And later in life when they look back, they discover that they have not missed anything nor lost anything.

While no one can say with absolute certainty how APC would perform at the centre, I would rather risk trying them before knowing what they can do. At any rate, even if the argument that they won’t do better is valid, Nigeria practices Federal Character, so I ask why can’t we “quotalise” incompetence and corruption! Why must PDP be the sole beneficiary?

Music/Radio › Ray Power Fm-nigeria's First Private Radio Station Is 20 Today. by MAYOWAAK(op): 9:46pm On Sep 01, 2014
Ray Power FM - Nigeria's first private radio station - is 20 today.

Before Ray Power, 24-hour broadcasting on radio or TV looked like an impossibility. Today 24-hour broadcasting looks normal and commonplace.

With Ray Power, we stopped getting only what the federal or state governments fed us as news.

Before Ray Power, Nigerian music was "local" music that was. treated like other "local" products, while music by Michael Jackson, Shaba Ranks, Queen Latifah and even Yvonne Chaka Chaka and Awilo Longomba was "international" and treated as premium. But through the insistence of the founder, Chief Raymond Dokpesi, on promotion of local music, and the persistence of Kenny Ogungbe and Dayo Adeneye, all that has changed. Today, Nigerians care little about the music of Beyonce or Justin Bieber. or any foreign musician. Nigerian music even dominates the African airwaves.

There is no denying that Ray Power has made a difference in the nation.

There are also some aspects in which the station (as well as the DAAR Group) needs to improve upon.

Congratulations to Ray Power, Dokpesi and all the staff - past and present - that have contributed to the radio station's success story.
Romance › 15 Differences Between The Boy You Date And The Man You Marry by MAYOWAAK(op): 5:47pm On Sep 01, 2014
When you’re dating a guy, it’s easy to think he’s perfect. You’re in a love haze, so be careful because there are definite differences between the boy you date and the man you marry. It’s true that people can change, so don’t ditch a guy just because he seems like a slacker at first. It’s okay to give him a chance to prove himself. However, if you don’t eventually see some of these characteristics, don’t be afraid to dump him and move on to someone new. If you’re young and having fun at this point in your life, it’s okay to date around and have flings, but before long you’re going to want to settle down, so make sure you do it with a quality man, not an immature boy.

1.The boy you date asks you to “hang out,” which involves less commitment than a date. He wants to have fun with no strings attached.
The man you marry asks you out on dates and is clear about his intentions with you. He wants to be with you and wants you to know where you’re headed.

2.The boy you date talks with you about people you know from your past, or pokes fun at that guy at the bar, or only shares funny stories because he can’t connect on a deeper level.
The man you marry can hold a conversation with you about books, movies, music, and other common interests. This makes for a more substantial relationship in the long run.

3.The boy you date will say he never wants to get married or have kids, and nothing will change his mind. Don’t try–this is a red flag that he’s not Mr. Right!
The man you marry might change his mind about wanting to marry and have kids after he’s met you.

4.The boy you date hears your attitude, takes it personally, and starts firing it right back at you until it spirals into a major fight.
The man you marry can handle your attitude and talk you down from a ledge. This is especially important when you have major life crises or a bad day at work.

5.The boy you date calls you mean and immature names to make himself feel like a winner.
The man you marry fights fairly. He doesn’t call you names or use physical force, no matter how angry he gets.

6.The boy you date cares too much about looks, and will tease you for looking sloppy until you fix yourself back up to his standards.
The man you marry understands that everyone has good and bad days as far as looks go, and won’t hurt your feelings or love you less if your weight fluctuates or you have a bad hair day or forget to shave for awhile.

7.The boy you date will say “I’m sorry” because he just wants you to cheer up or stop nagging him. He says “I love you” because he doesn’t want to lose you, even though he doesn’t really feel the meaning of the words.
The man you marry will say “I’m sorry” because he honestly is, and he never meant to hurt you with his words or actions. He says “I love you” because he truly means it, and wants you to feel that love every minute of your life.

8.The boy you date will expect to have things done for him because that’s what his mom did, and that’s what other girls have done for him, and he doesn’t have to take care of himself.
The man you marry will know how to take care of himself: how to cook, clean, do laundry, pay bills, and more–because he’s already a man.It’s important for people to have this figured out before they’re ready to marry, which is a great way to tell what type your guy is.

9.The boy you date doesn’t want to meet your friends because he just wants to be alone with you all of the time.
The man you marry wants to hear stories about your friends until he can meet them and get to know them himself.

10.The boy you date well, you’re too embarrassed to take him to meet your parents, not that he’d ever bring it up himself.
The man you marry wants to meet your parents, and impresses them when he does.

11.The boy you date is always the one you fantasize about marrying, because he’s cute and all you do is have fun together (until the first big blow-up…).
The man you marry is never a sure thing. You hem and haw over if he’s right, if you should settle down with him, if your relationship can make it long term.

12.The boy you date doesn’t listen to you or fully engage in conversations. He nods while you talk, then changes the subject or just tells you what you want to hear.
The man you marry cares about what you have to say. He wants to know your thoughts and opinions on anything from major issues to tiny moments from your day.

13.The boy you date runs at the first sign of trouble because it’s too much drama for him, and he doesn’t want anything tying him down.
The man you marry sticks with you through tough times because he’s committed to you and the relationship, and wants to see it through to the end.

14.The boy you date doesn’t reach for the check, and huffs if you ask him to split the bill with you.
The man you marry pays when he takes you out, even after you grab the check and insist five times that it’s your turn to pay.

15. The boy you date never gives you security. You don’t know how he feels or what he’s up to when he’s not with you, and your friends might even have money riding on how long you’ll last.
The man you marry will make you feel secure. You’ll always know he loves you, you’ll be able to trust him, and you’ll know that you two can make it through anything.

The people who secured the DISCOs and GENCOs are not those who really want to work. No due process was followed. Rather the friends of government secured it. They are complaining today that what they anticipated was not what they found. If they followed due process, won’t they know the costs of transmission and transportation and the inventory of functioning and damaged equipment? Now they are complaining. We don’t have power because those in power did not contemplate the poor. The irony is that their lack of due process has backfired on the elite. If they followed due process, the wrong people won’t get the contract. Now that they have the contracts, they are on the wrong end of the stick. We the people have to suffer as usual.

Romance › Re: When You And Your Ex Are Still In Love With Each Other by MAYOWAAK: 9:44am On Aug 29, 2014
All hell was let loose when he discovered that the money she (his wife) claimed was a loan from a bank was actually a ‘goodwill gesture’ from her ex-boyfriend.

This brings me to the place of ‘ex’ in our lives-especially when one is supposedly having a new life with someone else. Some people claim they are still best of friends with a certain ‘ex’ and that explains why some men would rather go to an ‘ex’ girlfriend for advice and even confiding (what they would never dream of sharing with their ‘better half’) in such ‘ex.’ There are also women who run to their ‘ex’ at the drop of a hat for assistance or when they need to talk to someone. The argument is that such ’ex’ understands them better than any other person and has therefore remained an important fixture in their lives, making me ask, is anybody really comfortable with a spouse’s ‘ex’ in the picture-deep down? Whatever happens to those we call friends-if one needs to ‘talk to somebody’ has to suddenly revolve around an ‘ex’? Isn’t it easier for the ‘ex’ (with whom the centre could not hold) to ‘understand’ because he/she isn’t in your spouse’s shoes?

I am not even going to look at this issue from the angle of ‘Okafor’s law’ but what I do know is this…if at any stage in your supposed marital life, you still find yourself running to an ‘ex’ when you need to talk to somebody, something is fundamentally wrong in that marriage! No ‘ex’ should be closer than your spouse to you. The moment you chose to move on with your ‘new life,’ every ‘ex’ should cease to play an important role in your life because these are the people that belong to your past. Again, if your ‘ex’ was that wonderful, why did you not end up (in matrimony) with him/her?

I think we should watch our penchant for wanting to eat our cake and have it. If a certain ‘ex’ has to be elevated in your life, above your ‘better half,’ there is an urgent need to renegotiate the basis of that union. It’s ‘ok’ to relate with an ‘ex’ as cordially as you can but lines should be drawn in how you carry on with such ‘closeness’ simply because you have someone else in your life (now), who should naturally be closer to you than any and every ‘ex’ put together. Don’t insult your partner’s sensibilities through careless conducts.

If you must relate with an ‘ex,’ please carry your spouse along. Show some dignity. Let me say this again, if at any point in your marital life, you suddenly find yourself running to an ‘ex’ whenever you need a shoulder to cry on, I put it to you that something is wrong with the setting you call a marriage. Your partner (first and foremost), friends or family should be those you run to at such ‘periods.’ An ‘ex’ should not even be in the equation because you both have supposedly moved on.

Your partner should make you forget most things about any ‘ex.’ I mean whatever wonderful attributes such ‘ex’ possesses should pale into insignificance compared to what you are currently enjoying. If this is not what obtains with your reality, it won’t be out of order to question your judgement.

The moment you have chosen to bring someone else into your life, please spare them the episode of your ‘ex’ except you are regretting the ‘setting’ that you ended up with!
Christianity Etc › Pastor Oyakhilome’s Wife Finally Files For Divorce In London Court by MAYOWAAK(op): 9:14am On Aug 29, 2014
The dissolution of the marriage between Christ Embassy Church founder, Pastor Christian Oyakhilome, and his wife, Rev. Anita Odegwa Oyakhilome, has entered the final phase, TheCable can report.

The wife is seeking divorce on the grounds of “unreasonable behaviour” and “adultery”. She outlined several allegations against the pastor which TheCable cannot publish for legal reasons. The divorce case, with Suit No FD14D01650, was filed on April 9, 2014 at Divorce Section A, Central Family Court, First Avenue House, High Holborn, London, UK, on Anita’s behalf by Attwaters Jameson Hill Solicitors, a full-service law firm with expertise in commercial law and a strong consumer focus in family, wills and estate, personal injury law and medical negligence.

Efforts to reconcile the popular couple, whose church is one of the biggest denominations in Nigeria and has branches all over world, have failed.

They have two teenage daughters, Sharon and Charlyn. Oyakhilome is the president of Believers’ Love World Inc, the registered name of the Christian ministry, while his wife is the vice-president. The pastor, according to an elder of the church, has denied allegations of adultery and believes his wife is being influenced by “bad friends” who are intent on destroying their home. While Anita believes she has been relegated in the scheme of things in the church, her husband has reportedly accused her of trying to usurp power and authority above her seniors in the ministry. Sources told TheCable that the pastor had been making efforts to avoid divorce in the hope that the wife would eventually have a change of mind.

However, TheCable can also report that the decree nissi was served on the charismatic pastor in his hotel room during a recent visit to the UK. Decree nissi, in legal terms, is like a yellow card in a football match which is a precursor to a red card (“decree absolute”) if no new evidence is provided to stall proceedings. Church insiders said Oyakhilome had been hoping for rapprochement, but he was left with no option than to receive the papers when the lawyers cornered him at his hotel in London. The decree absolute, which will effectively end the marriage, is expected to be issued soon while terms of the divorce will be worked out by the lawyers on both sides.

TheCable learnt Anita recently wanted to go public with the details of her allegations against the husband but reached an informal agreement to sheathe her sword in the interest of the church. Oyakhilome is regarded as one of the richest and most influential pastors in Nigeria, and co-authors the fast-selling Christian daily devotional, Rhapsody of Realities, with the wife.

However, following the strain in the marriage, the wife had been complaining to friends that her husband had stopped the payment of royalties due her from the devotional. “She complained of being deliberately starved of funds, perhaps to bring her to her knees in the belief that she would eventually return to her matrimonial home and mend things,” a church member told TheCable in the UK.

A wealthy Zimbabwean businessman, who is into telecoms, is one of the biggest financiers of the London branch of the church which Anita pastors along with other branches in Europe. When the crisis got to a head, the Zimbabwean stopped funding the church ─ some said in solidarity with Oyakhilome, his close friend and neighbour in Johannesburg, South Africa.

However, Oyakhilome was said to have been shocked when the wife announced at a fundraiser that she was sowing a “seed” (donation) of $1 million ─ despite her assumed lack of access to funds. Matters got to a head on Sunday, July 13, 2014, when some relatives of Anita locked up the London branch of the church to protest against the “humiliation” being meted out to their sister ─ who had not overseen services at the branch since November 2013. Some church members had sometime in May 10, 2014 launched facebook campaign, asking: “Where is Rev. Anita Oyakhilome?” They said Pastor Chris and Rev. Anita must unite “for the sake of the gospel, the church and their two beautiful daughters”. They quoted Malachi 2:16 in the Message Bible: “I hate divorce, says the God of Israel.” The facebook page, which has over 3,300 “likes”, was opened with a stated mission: “This is a Call to Prayer for all believers who understand God’s heart concerning marriage and a Call to Action by Pst. Chris. #DoWhatYouPreach”.

Officials of the church quickly moved to deny any rift between the pastor couple. One official, Kenneth Achumasara, told the media last June: “I can tell you authoritatively that there is no issue between Pastor Chris and his wife, Anita… If you go to the UK now you will see her along with the kids. She is still with him and there is no issue between them. I have been with him for 22 years and the Pastor Chris I know cannot even utter such words as reported. He will never address such a gathering. She will soon be in Nigeria for a programme and I will definitely invite you to have access to her.”

Politics › Hotel Worker Returns N17million Forgotten By A Guest by MAYOWAAK(op): 12:36pm On Aug 28, 2014
The 37-year-old earns a salary of N20,000 in the hotel where he works

A man in Jigawa has performed a remarkable deed as he found and returned N17 Million.
37-year-old Yusuf Usman discovered the money in an iPad jacket in one of the rooms he supervises at the Three-Star Hotel in, Dutse, Jigawa.
Usman earns just N20,000 monthly but that did not tempt him to keep the money. He said:

“I have been with State, for the past 15 years and I am currently their Reception Manager. What actually happened was that on that fateful day that I found the money, I was on my way from reception to see one of the house-keepers. I passed through the hotel garden where some of our guests usually relax.



As I was going, I saw an iPad lying close to one of the flowers in the garden and there was nobody there. So I went and took the iPad so that I could take it to the reception and wait for the owner who may come for it later.

When I looked at it closely, I saw some foreign currency and some wad of naira notes in the iPad jacket. I quickly took it to the management and I was asked to keep the money and the iPad in my safe at the reception. I did not count the money myself,”

“Three days later, a staff of Jigawa College of Health Technology, Jahun, who came to book the hotel for their guests called me and said that one of the guests, who was lodged in the hotel had called to say that he misplaced his iPad containing some money, but can’t remember whether it was in the hotel he forgot it or not. I told them that it was in the hotel and I found it,”

he reception manager said the people from Jahun were so happy and full of thanks when they came to claim the money.

“When the owner of the money found out that his money has been found, he was very happy. They thanked me and the management of the hotel. The Jigawa College of Health Technology wrote a commendation letter to me.

It was there they stated that the money was over $100,000 because the jacket also had local currency in it. My management also gave me a commendation letter. Governor Sule Lamido was informed and he showered a lot of praises on me.

He was very proud of me,”

“As you can see I am not financially comfortable but that is not the point. What is not yours is not yours. There are three reasons why I will never take somebody’s property. One, stealing is against the teaching of Islam and I was strictly brought up according to Islamic teaching.

Secondly, my father has always warned me never to tamper with what is not mine because it can bring destruction in my life and thirdly, it is the tradition of our hotel not to hide whatever item we found. Even if it is not me that found the iPad and the money, whoever found it will have returned it. We have a store in the hotel for forgotten items.

Some items have been there for 10 years. I don’t see what I did as a big deal. I am just doing my duty,”

“I don’t believe that running away with somebody’s money will make me wealthy. Wealth belongs to Allah and if Allah destined me to be wealthy it will come to pass. My wife is so proud of me that her respect for me has doubled,”

Usman admonished the youth to preserve their integrity and to realize that a good name is better than wealth.

And Yesterday, the Governor Of Jigawa State hosted the honest Nigerian and awarded him a medal for his honesty

Scyllapatron: *a woman missed her flight, the flight took off and crashed in the midair 5mins after take off killing everyone on board, the woman took an airport taxi to return home, a big lorry hit the taxi at a junction killing only the woman.
This can be explained by the embedded message in Jeffrey Archer’s ‘Death Speaks’ in his collection ‘To Cut a Long Story Short’. The narrative is of a merchant in Baghdad whose servant ran back from the market, looking very terrified and assuring his master that he saw death in the market-place and that the latter threatened him. He pleaded with his master to lend him a horse, so he could ride away and avoid his fate. “I will go to Samarra and there death will not find me,” he said. The merchant obliged and the servant rode away. Then the merchant went to the market and confronted death for giving his servant a fright. Death calmly replied: “That was not a threatening gesture, it was only a start of surprise. I was astonished to see him in Baghdad for I had an appointment with him tonight in Samarra.”

Death speaks, it is true.

Nigerians as actors…

A Nigerian woman gets into a relationship, she calculates how much she needs to get from her lover in the space of 18months, and the grand misdemeanor and lies that is to follow; calls that will never again be picked, exaggerated responses to small issues, just so she can get rid of him, piss him off and lead him packing his love bag to pave way for the next person with a shinier car...

A Nigerian man dates a woman, he is already scheming, based on his online repertoire, on how to replace this chick with the next the minute it clocks midnight- five months after,,,

The Nigerian employee is hired, trained, equipped with all necessary tools and knowledge to make his career an easy and exciting one by the employer…but s/he already has a plan- to resign or disappear the minute s/he gets back from a training program in South African sponsored by the present employer, to the next (rival) company...

The Nigerian employer has a colourful script, one that ensures s/he uses your service, sucks you dry, steals all your hours, owes you salary for months... then takes a trip with his family (or one of the women he is sleeping with in the office) to an exotic Island the minute the cheque (from a client) you’ve all been praying and waiting for in the office comes through- monies that should have been used to offset salaries and debts...

The Nigerian politician wins the Actor of the year award every year! He plans to steal, kill, devour, abuse, insult, ridicule, clean his shame with your last naira, fight, spit and leave you empty, prior to convincing you he is the next best thing after the promises of salvation...

Nigerian parents give birth to more than they can provide for because their script states- the more kids, the merrier old age will be. They even have scripts for the exact gender they want and what they want the gender to become in life, it’s all scripted out. There are also scripts for imminent hazards- “what if one dies of malaria? There’ll be seven more left to console me”.

Nigerian landlord... a leaking roof, bad toilet, faulty foundation… yet he has a wicked script behind that smile: pay your two-year rent; fix everything by yourself, and I’ll kick you out if you do not agree to the 50% increment that'll happen immediately your rent expires; they’ll be someone waiting to move in!

The Nigerian pastor gets the silver plaque after his first cousin, the politician. He banks on your stupidity, screws your head with an 8-inch penis right through your ear (since you have refused to use it to listen to wisdom); wrecks you as life and purpose trickle out of you...until you become as blank as a cardboard paper with impressive zombie-like reasoning...

While we complain so much about why our government, (at practically all levels) is not working, we may also need to look at ourselves in the mirror. No matter how much noise we make, the change that we seek in our nation must begin with individuals. If a society is not compassionate, it is futile to expect the government to be. If a society takes corruption lightly, as we do in Nigeria, (especially where our friends or kinsmen are concerned) then it stands to reason that it would be reflected in government. If a society is indifferent to the plights of the poor, as it is also evident in Nigeria, that is the way government will be. If the society has degenerated to the level of everyman for himself, as our nation clearly is today, then we delude ourselves to expect anything different from our government.
Christianity Etc › David Oyedepo Barred From Entering The United Kingdom? by MAYOWAAK(op): 9:52pm On Aug 14, 2014
Reports reaching us claim that founder of the Living Faith Church Worldwide aka Winners Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo has been barred from entering the United Kingdom. A source at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport told ‘ThisisAfrica’, that Oyedepo’s barring was communicated to airlines via an ‘Airline Alert’ on Saturday, 9 August. The alert stated that any airline that acts against the ban will be fined £2000 (N542,000). According to a recent Daily Mail and Guardian report, an inquiry by the UK Charitable Commission accused the UK branch of Winners Chapel of cynically exploiting supporters.

In addition to the report of Oyedepo’s barring on ‘ThisisAfrica’, there was also a photo of the alleged ‘Airline alert’.


Daily Mail’s report stated that the church received £16.7 million (N4.5 billion) in donations from followers who were told that God would give them riches in return’ and that ‘Followers are ferried in double-decker shuttle buses to the church, handed slips inviting them to make debit card payments, and are even told obeying the ministry’s teachings will make them immune from illness’. David O. Oyedepo is reputed to be the richest pastor in Nigeria. He is the senior pastor of Faith Tabernacle, a 50,000 seat church auditorium, reported to be the largest church auditorium in the world by the Guinness Book of Records.
