Given what the politicians have turned the country into, I long for the 80s and early 90s. Maybe I recall them with the eye of a child. But I think Nigeria was a much better place then than now.

Not like it
was a better place, the mentality of the people were better.

Nigerians were nation builders, culturally sensitive and called Nigeria home. Nothing like Naija is a shithole because the shithole was home.

Home is where your heart is.

I grew up in Festac. We would play outside or at the playgrounds until we sighted our parent’s cars returning from work or the street lights came on. I learnt to ride a bike, it was a Chopper. I couldn't roller-skate like my best friend.

We had block birthday parties outside and a few street parties for Christmas.


I think this topic deserves pictures to show what it was really like and the nostalgia.

When Festac was Festac. 🥺

Reminderz:
when it comes to social relationships, most women are smart and not intelligent, while most men are intelligent and not smart...

women are brutally manipulative, cunning and powerful... underrate them at your own risk... a man without the redpill is a dead man walking... it only takes a predatory female to finish him off... dear awoken men, you have responsibilities to carry out on your sons and brothers to avoid them treading the same path of fallen men...

if the story is true which I believe it is due to a even more crazy scenarios I've experienced and seen, then I would say a man who let emotions override his logical ability will pay dearly for its consequences when it comes to dealing with the opposite sex...

the woman said the baby was born prematurely and he believed her... smh... and can anyone tell me? what is that route that she doesn't want to go through again? murder? bro when we warned many men here on the red flags to look out for, some foolish men and women commented that it's nothing to be worried about... well I hope they end up the same way as those fallen men... one lesson in life is to never try to save anyone who doesn't want to be saved.. life will surely deliver a very painful lesson to them, that's if they are lucky to be alive...

dear men, after speaking on some red flags to watch out for some couple of weeks ago and why it shouldn't be taken slightly... this is another set of red flags to look out for which I got from one of my divorced male friend who found out his wife was cheating on him...

1) always note down the last time you slept with your wife...

2) dna test is a must and most especially if you didn't meet her a virgin... try as much to find out and most especially on your first child...

3) her survival comes first and her child second... you're never considered or treated with less importance..

4) a woman will go any desperate lengths to get her secrets covered...

5) women will cheat on you and you may never find out till you die..

6) women will give you the craziest sex style and cook your favourite food, send you the best love letters and still be cheating on you...

7) a man who relies on a woman and believes everything a woman says is a man destined to fail...

8 ) your purpose and mission should come before any woman...

9) women are not going anywhere...

10) you can either love or understand woman, you can't do both... if I'm to choose, I will choose the latter because I've understood that women don't love men...

finally, save yourself man.. no one is coming to save you...

Some are still wishing they have 10 of these.

Some men gleefully and foolishly pine after the thought of having multiple wives like their joysticks are iron rods and their wallets are deeper than the ocean. And even at that, what do you think a woman is?

Men are very ignorant about the depth of a woman’s mind because of the pretty faces and the front we put up to attract.

They see men with multiple girls and think those men are enjoying, they think those men are ordinary.

Men that love peace open their wallets and stick their rods into multiple troubles. They think it’s all about money until it’s too late and they are stuck with a marine spirit, a cheater, 8children they are forced to take care of that are not theirs, a witch, a murderer and a prostitute who brings uncountable problems by sleeping with dark men. As the saying goes, who no go no KNOW.

People think I always warn about this because I as a woman feels bad if a man thinks women are object to acquire. They don’t know I am just advising them as brothers because I KNOW what women are. Firstly, how many girlfriends have you controlled that you as a man think you can just jump into marrying multiple woMEN?


There are very few men that can handle men with breasts and vaginas, because you see Pa Ned happy and smiling with his wives, you think he is an ordinary man with money.

If you are reading this as a man and think I am jealous and women are objects to be acquired please invite me for your 8weddings.

Who no like party rice!

It ended well, had romance with my manager for months which the MD got to later find out and publicly casted us during general meeting, she said I've got such effrontery and no wonder my boss favours me, threatened to inform her husband and my wife because we were both young couples and got married on the job. After the meeting, we went to meet d hr tendered our resignations with immediate effect and same month salary in lieu forfeiture.

Next day, she called us and insisted she won't be accepting our resignation, and many other talk, we sha continued working and the rest na history.

However we have both left the company but still continued our romance and now working with multinational company as at date.

However I appreciate them for sacrificing their self respect so we can flash our teeth sometimes.

Thank you sweetheart.

React this way?? What exactly do u mean by this way...?? What kindness did show me..?? And how did i react?? I thought ur comment was nice and felt u are ready for marriage cos only women that are "truly" psycjologically ready for marriage have all thatt mentality u wrote

this comment is funny ...if u like be wicked to men, u amy lickely give birth to one...what goes around comes around in life...... i dont know whats with some women and personal hatred for men...


so.. is there something evil about finding husband??...u are making a fuss about nothing...



Lol....now u are just capping, showing off with empty words, claiming u are humble and also countering ur self by being being proud......

madam...dont u think all this i have money in my account , them dey rush me, is not neccessary....this is faceless forum...nobody cares...


Sigh!!!! Behave like how...?? Ur comments sound like i have offended u before now... all i said was its like u are looking for a man...and i am partially right cos u are not married...

This forum is faceless but you do business on it and have the temerity to add a vacancy to your thread.

The option of a profile picture has been added for a reason, several people have met each other and impacted positively on themselves because they actually have something to offer. People do business here, people have met life partners here, people have get jobs here, make lifetime friends.

It is only a loser with nothing to offer that thinks they can run their mouth here and decide to be faceless because they have nothing to offer anyone. What a disgrace.

That is the only part of your comment I will respond you because you have repeated it too much and quite frankly, it is extremely lame. Go to Quora and see how it is done, mr Faceless forum. Or better yet look for old threads with mature people here before your likes overrun it with foolishness.

Lets agree not to quote each from now on. I will make sure I never respond again.

Thanks.

advanceDNA:
Lol....I read ur comment and i thought it was nice which made me feel u are ready for marriage..hence my comment....whats wrong with looking for a husband or wife??

..i ddnt insult u....but as usual, u interpreted it as an attack and start throwing insult and
confessing about ur life to a total stranger .

Wait..what has telling me u are engaged got to prove?? .... I dont even know u.........its a faceless forum.....nobody cares ....

You found my comment nice but wrote to me an insulting comment, you come to form innocent. Would you talk to anyone that way in reality? Are you trying to say your intention was not to mock me or have others mock me?

How would your comment be construed in reality? A nice one? Because you’re on a faceless forum that give you the right to comment like a teenager who’s balls haven’t even dropped in his sac?

Who in their right mind will see that as a nice comment. You must think you’re talking to one of this e-diots, but you are not. Don’t engage me at all if you’re not ready to be mature, I am not a kid who indulges in foolishness.

When you see my comment, jump and pass, the only thing I hate more than an immature man with beards is a gaslighter who thinks they’re smart.

What insult did I throw? Mr gaslighter? I don’t care if you care, my own was to tell you I was not in fact not looking for husband. You still don’t know jackshit about me, STRANGER. You do not care but I have seen you indulge in several needless arguments. What a bothersome being.

Be like u dey find husband....

Why is also that when women try to show kindness to men, they react this way?

And later wonder why some women will never defend a man or wonder why they never find good women.


It’s either green light or pick me or she dey find husband.

If you see my face, body, know my countenance and the state of my bank account, my humility, my intelligence, where I work, what I do for a living, how I can connect you to higher levels, you will know thousands of men are looking for me as a wife.

Are you even a man? Why behave like this? I am honestly curious.

I see your comments sometimes, I thought you were mature and sensible. I really wish I could block children on this site.

I’m engaged to be married to a wonderful man.


Swerve.

bukatyne:
Did you listen to the video? Apart from the financial assistance during perilous times, I would have sworn you were elaborating his points.

I didn’t event see a video. Let me listen to it before I withdraw my comment.


Modified: I have watched it, my comment stands.

A woman will not give all those things I mentioned without a man providing. Meaning men are only supposed to be loved under the context that they provide.

I strongly disagree with that.

I understand many men are underserving of this treatment, however there are some angels out there, who deserve it trust me.

In rain or in dry times, with or without a table. My man will receive my support and love. Many women do not know what it means to be a man, men always seem angry because they know they are loved only under the circumstance that they provide.

A man will never respect you as he should if you leave all that to him. The word has gotten much more competitive and the definition of a woman has changed. Unless you want to treated as a child, we cannot sit somewhere and expect someone’s brother to give you the whole world. We have to get off our fat asses and at least support!

Speak for your woman who’s head is probably filled with air and designer purses.


I work, I clean, I bring ideas when needed, I nurture, I love unreservedly.

This way a man flourishes.

I bring dedication, financial help in perilous times, peace, joy, stability, unwavering loyalty, calmness to my man who navigates the troubled waters of this world for our sake and the sake of our future children.

When he’s angry,
I am calm
When he cries,
I am a shoulder.
When he complains,
My ear is waiting.
When he’s not in the mood;
I am more than quieter than the sea at night.

This makes him cherish me more than anyone else in Earth.

He is the crown on my head and I am his neck.

I really pity men who live with women who don’t know what it means to be a woman.

Bobmaintain.

I would like you to Google David and his women first before you read my reply.

Read through the articles, don’t take my word for it. See for yourself how multiple women destroyed David’s relationship with God. See for yourself how you used the wrongest example to justify the gross selfishness of men.

Don’t just Google him, Google all the kings of God and read how women both sexual and non sexual destroyed their relationships with God.

I will advise you as a sister because I know where you are coming from; however you are playing with FIRE. What you are describing is unnatural and not in the original plan of creation, this has led many men to HELL. Are you a Christian or a Philistine keeping the laws of the Old Testament. God was not foolish when came down in the form of Jesus Christ and asked men to keep to one woman. That was the original plan before the devil came and turned everything upside down.

The reason God allowed men to have multiple wives is because the Devil was in charge before he came in the form of Jesus.

Why was it said that David had to repent of his sin at his deathbed? What were the sins he committed?

BE VERY CAREFUL. WOMEN ARE NOT AS YOU SEE THEM.

Do you know that as God was blessing Abraham, he told him that his descendants the Israelites will wander for multiple years in a land that is not their own? Have you wondered why God would place a curse at the same time that as he was blessing? It was not a curse but a prediction of what will happen in future because of the consequences of Adam and Eve not sticking to the original plan of God.

David
Solomon his son
Abraham
Jacob


The only men that lived peaceful lives where the ones who stayed away from women!


Several men of God had their generations after them in serious problems because of the effects of their polygamy. The children of David caused him great pains till the end of his life. No one caused greater pain to the people of God than his chosen son which he had from the wife he stole from another man, Solomon!


You are using David that has kid Solomon literally started the problems which the Israelites faced by marrying a thousand wives. Most of who led him away from God, including Jezebel! This is in line with the prophecy Abraham heard about his people!

Do not be deceived, very few men are kings or have the dispensation of kings. Even those that did lived very troubled lives because of the presence of multiple women in their lives. Do you really think you can keep women around you and not sleep with them? You must think the devil is sleeping.


Just see how you have twisted the word of God! Do you think want the life David or Solomon lived? You are playing with fire!

You can't Fight Realities Simply Ask God to lead you through Realities!

I perfectly understand where you are coming from. I Iive by the same rules.

However, this is still a Christian advising other Christians to try to live the Christlike life through the power of God. Which is what the Christian mission is all about.

These are not his words, he culled them from the Bible. Why do you name him childish for doing what the Lord asked him to?

Are you saying Jesus was childish?

I'm sorry for insulting and calling you names... You're the most beautiful person I've met this year....

You're cherished 🥰

We're not bitter, we are just tired of being nice with the wrong people

I understand you perfectly.

The proliferation of this site by immature children has turned some of us into something we don’t recognize.

I also know can take a guess of how it feels to be a man in this world where everything is against you so I show as much kindness to men whenever I can, no matter the level of anger they possess. I know the anger is misdirected and will pass.

Always remember you are cherished also. Do not let the world take away your kindness, if for the sake of your mother who loves you more than anyone. 🫶🏽

I did not come with bad intentions believe me. Despite your insults, I will only apologize if you misconstrued my statement.

Sometimes we blow things out of proportion because of the state our minds are in at that moment. You’re human.

Have a great night. Dream sweetly.

P.S. I asked you a simple question and you called me a Pig and said I got in your nerves. I never once retaliated or insulted you back.

Even a person blind from birth can see who is the emotional one here. I am not a religious person.

Na the mumu and entitled ladies dey take cheating serious, real women understand when their men cheat.

Cheating and getting another woman pregnant are two different things.

A man that cannot score silently does not deserve a real woman. No real woman needs such embarrassment. Such man is grossly irresponsible and cannot lead.


Make you score silently and a real woman will overlook.

gentposh:
Way to go...

No one is a Saint.

A family that would work Is a family that overlooks.

The fact that your were forgiven means you should do better

I really wonder why some of you try so hard to twist the message of Christianity. Let me ask you a sincere question. Would you type this to your daughters or younger ones? Or children that look up to you?

When I was Atheist, I don’t even open such threads. Now I’m born again and I find it hilarious that some of you won’t just leave Christians alone. Everything you typed goes against everything God stands for, why not just ignore and let gullible people be gullible? Why convince them to do these things that even without religion existing are grossly irresponsible?

1 Corinthians 6:9
Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality.

I do not condemn people for their actions and actually believe people should do as they please, it’s you and God in the end but please don’t twist the message of Jesus which the kind Op is just trying to pass. He didn’t put a chain around anyone’s neck and ask you to repent, he’s just passing a message which you can take or jump and pass. Why do you want people to see irresponsible sexual perversion as normal? Is that what you’ll teach your kids?


Think about it.

when2:
That's the topic for today. If you don't accept the message you can kindly jump and pass. Insulting the OP is not a sign of maturity.

One even called me a pig for asking him why he opened the thread.

I know I am not a pig but a human being, so the person who looks silly here is you. Did you think that would hurt? Maybe try again.

What a useless site filled with kids.

otipoju:
So of all the people touching Jesus, she was the only one that had faith. The others had no expectation of healing and were just following him for following sake. Stop reading your own meanings into events. Yes she had faith that she would get healed but the fact remains that her touch drained Jesus of power...her faith is not what drained Jesus.

Why would faith a positive thing reduce power in Jesus.?

Also there is not a single mention of the word menstruation in Acts 15. So you are inventing a story that did not happen.

As clever as you think you are, you did not comment on your bracadabra speaking in tounges. Show me in the Bible where you got blabbing unintelligible nonsense as speaking in tounges.

Your nonsense pastors substituted " strange tounges which actually means "foreign languages" to be blabbing nonsense and like dense and dumb sheep you follow.

Also where in the Bible does it say the man had no eyeballs? Where did you get your tradition from.

Now tell me the so called strange practices that we engage in that are not rooted in scripture.

From the colour of our garments, to palm fronds,to lighting candles...they are all found in the Bible.

And you are still saying the obvious...what I asked for was the correlation. Why would certain actions have certain direct events on real life events.

And what makes you think the actions that Celestians take are not directed by the Holy Spirit for the individual or congregation.

It's a shame that you talk so proudly and authoritavely about what a church you know nothing about.

That heaven wey you want go, na white garment you go wear there, you go light candle for alter and you go burn incense tire.

Never take the Bible literally. I would like you to read with an open mind. I for one have never mocked the Celestial Church of Christ or any church who claims to worship Jesus because I know God reveals Himself to His people in different ways. It is a personal race to the core. I received the gift of tongues without the influence of any pastor and trust me when I say it is a gift from the Holy Spirit. However, not everyone would receive that gift or connect to God that way and it doesn’t make you any less Christian.

You are both Christian, stop letting the devil laugh by arguing amongst yourselves about who is right or wrong. Everyone goes to God for different reasons and through different methods and I have not seen one thing unbiblical in what the Celestial Church or Christ does. Not all Pentecostal worshippers are condemners, don’t let the devil use you to accuse your brother.

Be the bigger person. Onto my explanation.



The first mention of tongues in the New Testament is a statement by Jesus found in Mark 16:17:

“And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues.” (Mark 16:17 NIV)

All the major Bible translations translate this word as ‘new.’ Jesus did not say, “Those who follow me will speak in earthly languages that are unknown to them.” Instead, He said we would speak in ‘new’ languages.

Secondly, this argument about speaking known foreign languages most often stems from the account at Pentecost. However, to my knowledge, there is no verse in the Bible which says that the disciples spoke in earthly languages. Here is what the Bible actually says:

“When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken.” (Acts 2:6 NIV)

“Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language?” (Acts 2:8 NIV)

A careful reading of the account at Pentecost reveals that many people in the crowd were able to ‘hear’ in their own language. The Bible never says that the disciples were speaking in the languages of those people. And in fact, there is evidence to the contrary given in verse 13:

“Some, however, made fun of them and said, ‘They have had too much wine.’” (Acts 2:13 NIV)

Ask yourself this question: Why would anyone mock someone and accuse them of being drunk, just for speaking a foreign language? Does that make any sense at all?

I would like to humbly submit for your consideration the following scenario. The Holy Spirit fell on the disciples at Pentecost. They immediately began speaking in tongues, and the manifestation of that looked and sounded exactly the same as it does today. Some in the crowd were given a miraculous sign in that they were able to ‘hear’ in their own language.

However, others only heard what sounded to them like babble. Nonsense. Gibberish. Therefore, they responded by mocking the disciples, attacking their character, and making slanderous accusations against them.

Yet Peter patiently and lovingly explained to them that what they were witnessing was actually an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

Some received his message, and others did not.

“Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.” (Acts 2:41 NIV)

Let’s move beyond Pentecost and see what else the Bible can reveal to us about this topic.

“For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit.” (1 Corinthians 14:2 NIV)

This Scripture completely refutes the idea that tongues can only refer to the speaking of known, earthly languages. This says that “no one” understands the tongue speaker, and that they “utter mysteries.” If literally “no one” understands them, then they aren’t speaking an earthly language.


Paul clearly describes a private, devotional use of tongues:

“Anyone who speaks in a tongue edifies themselves, but the one who prophesies edifies the church.” (1 Corinthians 14:4 NIV)

Is that passage talking about speaking in an identifiable earthly language so that other human beings will see a miraculous sign? No, it is not. Paul is clearly speaking about a spiritual gift that allows a person to communicate with God directly through the spirit, bypassing their own understanding, and building themselves up spiritually in the process:

“Otherwise when you are praising God in the Spirit, how can someone else, who is now put in the position of an inquirer, say ‘Amen’ to your thanksgiving, since they do not know what you are saying? You are giving thanks well enough, but no one else is edified.

I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you. But in the church I would rather speak five intelligible words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue.” (1 Corinthians 14:16-19 NIV)

Here, Paul refers to speaking in a tongue as “praising God in the Spirit” and even clearly states that when this happens, no one else knows what is being said. In fact, verse 5 of that same chapter makes clear that a second spiritual gift is required in order to know what is being spoken.
