We want our members to be 100% loyalists to the core.
Our loyal members should not be double-minded when we have a ''Prophet'' leading us to overcome the nightmares of Oando, just like Moses led the children of Israel to cross the red sea.

Goodnight OANDO...

I just left very little units from my maddest profits from OANDO

GOOD MORNING ETERNA OIL
Hmmm..... ''maddest profits from Oando''. No wonder you have always been beaming with smiles when the rest of us have been under serious tension, panic and uncertainty!
Now, the cat has been let out of the bag and we know those who are no longer with us in this Oando struggle.
Anyhow, anyhow, we die there!

my error! Thanks for pointing it out. But I'm not full of mischief.

Any rational mind would be skeptical about TB Joshua and his ways.
Better say any determined critic and mischief maker would be skeptical about TB Joshua and his ways.
This was a man that always broadcast his church services LIVE on television for all who care to know the truth.
The fact is he was far more anointed beyond the imagination of his detractors, and even in death, you people still want to find a way to discredit him and his ministry. Same thing happened and is happening to Jesus Christ and His disciples. Some idiots even say Maru Magdalene was girlfriend to Jesus and some even say he was sleeping with her.

the interview took two years. TBJ passed days shortly after the interviews started. The church building also collapsed during the investigation period. It took years to complete. Would you want the whole report to be dismissed only on account on subject's demise ?
You are just a pathetic liar full of mischief!
TB Joshua died in 2021. The church collapsed in 2014, seven years earlier.
Yet, you say the church collapsed during the investigation period?
If the investigations took two years (2022/2023), how could the church have collapsed during the investigation period when the collapse happened in 2014? Can you see how shameless a liar you are?
You know that you are telling lies and desperately trying to link these events.

The BBC is telling lies. They started the so called interviews/investigations after the death of TB Joshua.
They are only lying to give credibility to their useless stories

I wonder if you guys think before you comment. Distribute fliers for civilians to evacuate their home within 24 hours. Evacuate their homes to where exactly? To the north that was also constantly being shelled or to the IDP camp that was also being shelled? How can Israel supply fuel to a hospital that they kept shelling and destroying are you that dumb? Even as much as Israel strives in propaganda, they have severally admitted that they're on an ethnic cleansing campaign to clear Gaza of Palestinians but you asslickers will keep defending them. Israel claimed they don't fight with any war rule and they'll kill and murder anything that breathes as their god always commands
Very simple!
More than a million civilians moved. IDF only attacked suspected Hamas targets/hideouts.
There is no war that does not produce unintended civilian casualties.
The mere fact that IDF distributed leaflets to inform civilians to move to relatively safer places is something that no other country in war has done. Did you see America or Russia do that in the wars they have been fighting?
This is war!
Did Hamas warn civilians and women in Israel before attacking them with rockets?

grin In Gaza there is no single prove Hamas use schools or hospitals as operational bases. This has been verified by many impartial independent bodies. Yet you keep resurrecting the exhausted lies of Israelis which is merely a weak excuse to justify their mass murder intentions in Gaza.
As regarding the holocaust, people don’t care to find out WHY Hitler actually turned against the Jews particularly. It is not enough to point out that Hitler equally turned against other people. These Ashkenazis always do more dan themselves!
Liar, liar, liar!!!
Hamas uses every place possible as their operational bases. They launch rockets from civilian houses, school compounds, close to hospitals, mosques, churches etc.
Who are your liars, and so called '' independent bodies"?

Inspite the truth dat IDF only uses an AI called GOSPEL to determine where next to bomb in order to get the most civilian mortality, u still keep saying Hamas is using people to shield? How does bombing the people bring out the Hamas 10meters below the ground? There are no more civilians in north Gaza, so, how manage Hamas is still firing rockets every day from northern Gaza? Who are they using as human shield in northern Gaza? All d 7000 IDF Hamas killed is it not from close combat with IDF? So why pretend Hamas is hiding among people?
Where did your Hamas kill 7000 IDF solders? You must be hallucinating.
The same Hamas which is now asking/negotiating for 40 days ceasefire, which Israel has rejected!
Keep on believing in your lies.

grin Mumu! JEW is a religion. It’s connected to JUDAISM. The Palestinians are not JEWS. Their ancestors were. That’s wot am telling u. Every Israeli citizen right now is not a JEW. Many many are Atheist! Natanyahu is an ATHEIST. Many many are LGBTQ grin They have the highest in the world.
Then many many of the people in Israel today have no single connection to JEW or ISRAELYTES in anyway. Any American Brit or French can easily become a citizen. Infact Natanyahu’s personal adviser is an Australian. Your Mumu don do! Supporting modern day colonialists hiding under the false guise of religion.
Wen the Romans left, the Ottoman Empire came in and spent 400 yrs as rulers of the place. Most of the Jews then converted to Islam for survival sake. I am telling u, their descendants today are these Palestinians u so much despise. Thats why many of the Biblical names for the cites in Palestine are still intact till date. The Palestinians didn’t change dem till date cos they own those places. As for these ashkenazi Jews from Europe, they are fake Jews who descended from European converts to Judaism. They never owned any land in Palestine nor are there fore fathers the Israelites of the Bible
I leave you in your ignorance.
A Jew is someone that believes to be descendant of Jacob/Israel and belong to the lineage of Abraham.
Not every Jew is a Judaist. Some Jews are Christians, even if in the minority.
There are Jews in Ethiopia, Europe, US, etc.
Similarly, there are Yoruba people born and bred in other parts of the world and they have the right to migrate and settle in Yoruba land if they are able to trace the ancestry and the local people accept them.
Only bastards and fools forget their ancestry and lineage because they were born abroad!

That's your own business. I don't care what excuse you'll make for them but you guys should stop lying that they care about civilians. The original comment I responded to made a false claim and I rebutted it. All these your epistle are unnecessary unless you're talking to Israeli ass lickers that always make excuse for Israeli wickedness as much as they do for their incompetences
It is a fact that Israel distributed fliers many times telling civilians their next target areas and advising them to evacuate and avoid being present in those conflict zones. IDF also sent text messages and called people on phone to leave danger zones ahead of time.
Again, Israel observed daily 4 hour truce to allow civilians to move from the north to south of Gaza. IDF forces also supplied fuel to the generator in Al-Shifa hospital when it ran out of fuel in order to save the lives of some babies in the ICU. Israel also allowed the evacuation of critically sick people from the hospitals to Egypt. All these are documented and showed live on Al-Jazeera. But you people are blind and deaf to all these because of your hatred for Israel.

Israel care for innocent civilians and yet has killed more civilians by ratio in any war within the last century? You Israeli ass lickers are just so deluded
If the civilians accommodate and cooperate with Hamas to attack Israel, then Israel has no other option than to bomb them! This is war and not a demonstration!
Hamas is hiding in civilian houses, schools, mosques, hospitals etc. and launching rockets to attack Israel. What do you expect Israel to do? To go and conduct mass interviews of the civilians before firing back at Hamas and those providing them with cover?
Israel has been doing the best possible by sending warnings and information to civilians to move away from their next target area and conflict zones.
You people only talk about Israel. When Hamas fire their rockets into Israel, do they separate children and women from the effect of the rockets? Do they discriminate between civilian and military targets?

How are this current Ashkenazi European Jews in Israel the REAL ISRAELYTES of the Biblehuh Wen the Romans sacked Jerusalem AD 70 and expelled the Jews, who told you those Jews went to Europe?
Most of them settled in Lebanon. Infact till date, the Lebanese still have the best DNA match to those of the Biblical Israel. Many of the exiles returned and dwelled in land as they always return even in Bible times. But under several Islamic Empires they were forced to convert to Islam grin
The Palestinians today, are the descendants of the REAL ISRAELYTES of the Bible! They are the real ISRAELYTES! These European Jews are descendants of converts to Judaism. They not pure blooded Jews grin
This is why DNA test in Israel is illegal. They know the truth. U have been scammed grin
You are highly deluded! Highly hallucinating!
Are you the spoke person for Palestinians and Jews to determine who they really are contrary to what they call themselves? The Palestinians say they are not Jews; the Israelis say they are Jews and both are acknowledged by their people and governments as such; and here you are in Nigeria telling us that the Palestinians are the real Jews and the Israelis are Americans and Europeans.
Tell me, if the Palestinians are the descendants of David, Solomon etc and if their local language is Hebrew or Arabic?
It seems you people just like to talk anyhow and say things without proper thought.
A Jew who was born in America or Africa is still a Jew, and has the right to go back and settle in the land of his ancestors. Would you say that your brother, nephew or uncle who was born in America can no longer come back home to your village to inherit his father or grandfather's heritage just because he was born abroad?.
There are many African citizens who were born and bred abroad but had to be invited by their people to come back home and be the kings or chiefs in their villages. Same applies to the Jews, irrespective of whether they were born in Europe or America. Where they were born and bred is none of your business as long as the Jews in Israel recognize and accept them as Jews. You cannot know the Jews more than they know themselves!
If you can easily forget your ancestry because you were born abroad and do not know your history and lineage, other people like the Jews know their history and where they originate from. Everyone cannot be stupid to forget their ancestry!

Your Arabs went to live in the land after the Romans conquered and expelled the Jews, and started calling themselves ''Palestinians''. So you think you are clever by limiting the history to 1947!
Were Kings David and Solomon who ruled over the same land for many years born in 1967?

Even Israel itself is ashamed of itself in this war but a hungry you claims victory for them.
Has the war ended yet? Why claiming that Israel has run away from the battle field?
The same way you people were jubilating and celebrating all over the world when Hamas attacked Israel on Oct 07 and killed thousands of innocent souls, and then you start crying when Israel responded!

Ignorance galore!
How long did it take US to fight in Iraq?
Israel has proved to be a responsible country that cares for innocent civilians in this war
Israel is fighting people living amongst innocent civilians as shield.
Israel even had to announce each time their next point of action, and ask civilians to evacuate from conflict zones because they want to minimize casualty., thereby revealing their moves to the enemy.
They did this repeatedly, even to their own disadvantage.
Which country has ever done that in the history of warfare?

I am familiar with the History more than you think I do. I don't bow to religious or racial superiority or God's chosen biases. Strictly the truth.

Why do they have to be resettled in the area in 1948 by the British Balfour declaration if they have been there since Adam and Eve period?

How many centuries has the Palestinians spent on that same land? Both set of people have a genuine claim to that land and it should be divided between them. All the Israeli settlement is illegal, they should withdraw back within the UN Resolution UN-recognized borders. That's the first step towards peace.
Who were the first people to settle on the land, between Israelis and the so called ''Palestinians''?
Did the world and its history begin in 1948? What happened in 1948 was an effort to remedy what had happened thousands of years earlier when the Romans expelled the Jews from their land, and the Ottoman empire later conquered the land and Arabs took over everywhere and the Jews became a minority in their own land.
Even the Koran in chapter 5:20-21 says the land of Israel is given to the Jews through Moses! Yet the Arabs don't want Israel to exist becuase of their hatred and jealousy

The entire south have good soil for planting, yet, the North is providing food for the south, with their dried lands. Infertile lands with excess fertilizer to grow crops, especially genetically modified crops.

Sometimes ago, the North threatened to stop selling it's food produce to other regions of the country because of the arming bombing mistakes and southern leaders ignored this.

The Biafra war, where Igbos surrendered their arms was because food supplies were cut off enroute east.


If the south won't provide their own food, someday in the future, they will stay hungry.
There is too much erosion and thick vegetation in the south; but there is less erosion in the north and the plains are better for agriculture

He was more than “above average” but you are right about him being overrated. While others were winning league trophies and champions league, he was wandering in Bolton at the “height” of his career. Kanu, with or without, the heart problem is the only one that can be mentioned with the likes of Touré, Eto’o, Essien, Drogba, Pele, and Weah.
With all due respect, only Weah, and may be Eto'o can be compared with Abedi Pele.
Abedi belonged to a different class of players. He could single handedly change or win a game! The videos of his games when he was at Marseille are something this generation should watch and see pure magic!

A very informative piece.
CAF (especially under Issa Hayatou) started the open manipulation of the awards to suit its whims and caprices in 1993.
Abedi Pele was clearly the best African footballer in 1993 after having been the best player in the Champions League and playing crucial role to help Marseille defeat AC Milan in the final.
But there was huge noise and influence by some Nigerians e.g. Abiola for the award to be given to a Nigerian (Rasheed Yekinni) because Nigeria has just qualified to the world cup and Yekini scored the highest goals in the qualifiers.
So CAF started amending/manipulating the criteria in order to suit which player they wanted to give the award in a particular year. That is why there has been so many fraud in the awards since then.

Mustapha Hadji was also given the award when most people believed Okocha should have won it.
They manipulated and gave it to for El Hadji Diouf (Senegal) in 2000/2001 when Osei Kuffour (Ghana) was the best African player after having won the treble with Bayern Munich (UCL, Europa, and League).
They manipulated it for Yaya Toure (CIV) to win when Mikel Obi was clearly the best player after having won the UCL, Europa and Premiership.
They also manipulated and gave it to Samuel Eto'o Fills in a year that he did not win anything major.. etc

And your almighty Buhari retained Emefiele for another good 8 yrs
.

Because Buhari too was equally as useless as Jonathan himself.
Even, if Buhari had removed Emefiele, a lot of people would read tribal meanings into it.
My point is to extol the consistency of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, and not to hype APC over PDP or vice versa.

Both the PDP (under Jonathan0, and the APC (under Buhari and the fraudulent Tinubu) have been useless, as far as I am concerned.
Goodluck brought in the useless Emefiele who supervised the destruction of the naira; that is the fact.

God bless Sanusi Lamido Sanusi!
He has been the one person who has been calling out the NNPC and exposing the corruption in that entity.
He did it when he was CBN governor, but the clueless and dumb former president Goodluck Jonathan sacked him for exposing the rot.
In fact, the Nigerian economy and Naira exchange rate began a free fall after the clueless Jonathan sacked Sanusi and brought in Emefiele, the most useless CBN governor in Nigeria. Sanusi was able to maintain a stable exchange rate of around N150-N160 to the dollar in 2014. Today, the naira is now N1,200 to the dollar, no thanks to the useless CBN governor that Jonathan imposed on us, and the equally useless and dumb economic policies of the APC governments of Buhari and Tinubu.

Thank God Sanusi has been consistent: he has been speaking even under this dumb APC govts of Buhari and forger Tinubu.

Seems the meal of pounded yam (what goes into the stomach) is what is important!
How is this an achievement or a fulfilment for a true Christian?

But it's still sold in dollars, exchange rate All time low. It's made at bonny but sold at international price
This is what Nigerians must kick against.
Any government or country that produces something locally but sells to its citizens at international prices is not only useless but wicked and barbaric.
They want to do the sane thing with the crude oil
