BreconHills:
I disagree.

Christianity is not a life style. It is a new LIFE that gives us not only Christ's righteousness but also the power to life out his life. That life is not dependant on rules or doctrine but on power from above. When one experiences that power one begins to understand that preferring anything above him including wealth, success, job or fame is the sin. In the context of that life dressing is immaterial and the spirit will guide even the new believer into living out the life. Rules, and doctrine do not produce that life - they have no power over secret sins like lust, bitterness, envy, emulation, strife and so on.

You are talking about rules as evidence of life but I am talking about life as evidence of life. It is not my job to preach rules but Christ crucified. My job is to help people find life in its real experience not a sterile altar call or rule keeping. When the disciples met to decide on the laws that the gentiles ought to fulfil waist beads or trousers or make up was not among them.

Rules are not evidence of life and rules and doctrine cannot give life. They can only give the consciousness of sin not the consciousness of Christ.

Please leave the women with their beads, anklets, make up and wigs. Those are not the enemy we deal with. It is not for you to identify which dressing is godly, what you should be able to do is to apprehend the spirit that people have through their conversation. You cannot do it by observation, only through spoken words that come from the treasures of the heart.

I know your zeal. I have been there but it will only lead to joylessness, self justification and hardness of heart. Then you start going through the motions waiting for heaven and calling it maturity. First love bro, first love. Always. Never forget that.

God bless you bro.

Hmmm, I just love the way you lay up thing.
P. S- I'm a secret student.

Comparative advantage at work.

If I had the means, this will have been an avenue for me to cash out. Southwest I go dey supply una.

I think this current atmosphere will shape other regions approach concerning agriculture. Nigeria hasn't had it this bad, the divisive tendencies ; too obvious. Abeg any Southerner wey need products Holla me jare.

blueAgent:
Have you tested Evolution?

now that's a wow question.

MadamExcellency:
Religion is based on Faith not proof of existence.
Faith is the substance of things hope for, an evidence of things not seen.
Blessed is he that believes without seeing. This is faith.

not forgetting, without works, it lacks life.

tsephanyah:
Bastard from the lineage of the most corrupt gene in the world. Come to Nigeria, I dare you. Attention seeking bastard just posting on twitter to stay relevant amongst your deadbeat criminals. You people are funny, posting stupid things against the government so that your White masters will not send you parking. Fools they all thought Buhari will give them shady contract to steal. After they realize it will not happen, they turn to political activists.

pathetic. you need help, what has happen to your rationality & emotional intelligence?

I doubt if you have any, cyber space ba hauka bane.can't you just lay your objections without gratifying insults? or must you shame yourself as someone limited on home training? infact these utterances coming from a woman is a shame. stop embarrassing yourself.

LikeAking:
That forgive part, no follow.
Its this forgivness msg that has messed up the wolr and lots of ppls life.
Dont Forgive anybody.
U no be Jesus.

I had to laugh to this.

its a tall order. kano fine, infact it made me understand kaduna is over hype and besides, its the commercial hub of the North.

I don trek for kano tire...if for say na kd I for dey manage dey climb my bus.
oluwa , is this a sign telling me to own a car soon?

Yesterday I was catching up on a program on the tele, a guy named illiyasu or something called in from kaduna, he seem to have a deep info about the whereabout of those kidnapped. He even proposed some sort of remedy for this carnage.

But the gripping reality of this nonsense isn't far fetched. I believe the Northerners need to do more, looking or sounding shudder hasn't only amplified this total stupidity but also happens to make it look like a northern pet project. My heart sunk as I read and watch these pictures. It reminds me of Lord Resistance Army of Uganda under the delusional leadership of Joseph kony. Such similitude isn't far fetched to what is happening to Nigeria currently
P. S- thank God, those kidnapped are alive. My heart breaks seriously. Part of me is ashamed.like what someone said up there “wetin I go tell my children"

Ban ke? Oh well, we Don ban am already. He should rest. You see that his goal to sit at the Aso villa, believe me it's a good dream but sorry, it won't come through,not even in 2023.

Vyolet:
Nairaland is a reflection of what Nigeria is about today.
There are too many frustrated, broke and unhappy people roaming around.

Those that don't have anything to offer yet they will try all they can to bring others down to their level.

May God save us from poverty.

Wallahi! Nairaland is a microcosm of the Nigerian society. I can't help but laugh through the comments jawe!

mosdii:
Nigerian Girls Are Useless...All Of Them

Lol.. Bros you no dey tire??

BoneTackle:
my friend STFU and GTFOH
What and where is the hatred in her comment?

Sorry, I won't go that route if I were you. Have a nice day.

Beverlyjean:
There's nothing like tribalism...go ask buhari about tribalism.... this movie is not even heard of... how many know about this movie...I'm a movie person and I have never heard about this movie... I can bet that the Nigerian Oscar board is made of mostly northerners cos they are the ones that get appointed in every position in this country...if there is first class nepotism since this man took office in 2015, u dont blame anyone with my type of comment ...

To think of it, these type of comments are coming from an adult. I pray you find the avenue for joy not sheer hatred. But I understand the angle you are coming from. God bless your heart.

StacyO:
I keep saying it,Al south south together can never reach the tails of nothern Nigeria in terms of development.




The only problem the north have is just ignorance and illiteracy.

How do you measure development?

triple996:
.
A funny map of kaduna city bellow

Recycled pictures, I don't know what point you guys are trying to proof.
Tell the world the truth about what made kaduna went downward spiral . Nobi kd wey we know.

Religious extremism killed the once beautiful city.

Crayfish09:
Blame your moderators. As for me, I have made my stance known. Killer herdsmen and bandits make up less than 1% of the Fulani population, but the media (including nairraland) has completely tainted the tribe by constantly adding "Fulani. " to every report.

So if they can't differentiate between members of the Fulani tribe and bandits, why should I differentiate Igbos from the drug peddlers among them?

Igbos should stop disgracing Nigeria with drug trafficking

Sorry sir, but its such a poor excuse.

sapphiere:
Hmm men! Common 5k.
I don't blame him. He had just 200naira left in his acct. Jobless he-goat. His mates are out there hustling to better their lives and family while he's there using the stipend his parents gave him to mess around.

You always sound angry, even while making a point

JooEeL:
Lol. They are lowgrade people na. Most of this low-end people are completely shameless. They deserve the humiliation.

Lol easy bro

BreconHills:
The covid vaccine syringe is quite different from the normal syringe and its handling and subsequent disposal is also more precise than putting it in a hospital dustbin. The allocation of batch number to a patient yo enable them obtain access to international travel is also quite intricate. If we struggle over simple NIN and BVN then managing the vaccine project will be like an ant swallowing an elephant. Many challenges. If not for the Nigerian can do spirit, I would write this off as a predetermined failure.

Having said that, there is no doubt that the cost is heavily padded. Peter Obi is right in saying that but his argument was rather lightweight. Every Nigerian politician knows how padding works since they have all used it in the past.

At the end of the day, knowing Nigeria the vaccination process will be a great success and other countries will come and understudy us. We are masters of " one shot" success - We just don't want to systemize it.

As usual, I always come around to pick your drift. Claps �

Worksunlimited:
If you give every Nigerian 1m of that 150billion you are talking about, are you aware there will still be change in the surplus?

That's not smart economics.

Death-we all born to do that

She needs to be scarce a bit though, there's Respect in sitting backwards and observing a times.


Slience is golden

Anfield247:
Make them flog her yarsh so that she to shit and piss out the spirit of stealing!

Nairaland truly is a comic relief said someone.


Congrats

I remember Wednesday Market... � � The glory days of fudma. At the time of tomotoes glut a basket can go for a thousand.

BreconHills:
Hahaha why not?

Thanks. There's so much jewels to tap.

Arrewa:
keep the hatred you have for the Fulanis for yourself.

Hausafulani is here... It's too late to divide the US!

Asking Hausas to reject Fulanis or Fulanis rejecting Hausas is like an outsider asking you to reject your relative.

There's no family that has no fulani or Hausa blood in the northern family.

I know that you're strongly jealous of our unity in the north

Keep lying, there's no tribal fulani or Hausa blood in my family.

BreconHills:
Funding infrastructure is a necessity now because it is the only way we can fund growth. We have a youth bulge and we cannot save our way out of it, we have to spend our way out of it. Admittedly government hardly ever does a good job of this. There is still corruption, inefficiency and incompetence.

At the time buhari took over in 1985 right up to Babangida economic thinking - largely inspired by the world Bank and IMF was that a country must devalue its currency, cut costs and remove subsidies in order to kill off inefficient industries and replace them with viable ones. This was the thinking that destroyed Nigerias nascent industrial base - call it SAP.

Economic thinking has changed a lot since then. The thinking now is that demand must be stimulated through stimulus programs and investment in infrastructure. This is why you are saying debt increasing everywhere in the world. Nigerias debt to GDP ratio is just under 35% which is not flashing red lights yet especially now that human capital remittances has replaced commodities as the biggest inflow of fx - the boogie man of clean energy is being addressed albeit by chance.

So you are right, we lost a chance in 1985 but this must be placed against the prevailing economic theory of the time. At the same time, we now need to go full steam in the opposite direction to kick-start opportunity and demand.

You are also right not to trust the government to manage the process correctly. Where you are wrong is in suggesting that what happened in 1985 must have a corellation with 2021 strategy. The world has moved and so must we.

Highly Exceptional. Can I be your friend sir? will love to learn about a lot.

Joeadamxx:
My grouse with a lot of Nigerians especially the youth, is the fact they are quick to discount any progress that is not quick enough or requires any bit of mental exercise!
The gentleman says he made $10,000 in a year and some are saying it is misleading because he did not draw out a per minute chart of how he made the money!
He said he invested in cryptos. Have you done the mental exercise of checking the unit price of Bitcoin from the beginning of 2020 and compared it to the price at the end of that year?
He also mentioned he invested in Nigerian and US stocks and still some airheads are questioning the veracity of his claims without doing the simple mental exercise of checking what gains the stock markets made in that year.
I invested about $8000+ in cryptos and US stocks between September 2020 and now and my portfolio is presently in excess of $20,000+. Of course, there will be some dimwits on this forum that will claim it is false but I will give you an indication; I bought shares in a blockchain company with code HIVE for $0.46 and sold 1500 shares for $3.01 each with a profit of $3,960!
But again, maybe I am also lying!!

Wonderful, like someone quoted the laws of money lies within its knowledge. I will like to learn from you sir. Thanks, this is my Email samsonephraim01@gmail.com

Email address??

[quote author=Arrewa post=96999320]Buhari shut up and act!!

For those shouting north up and down!!


Out of 19 Northern state... We are facing security challenges in 3 northern states... That happens to be villages.

But because of the love and unity in the north... We share the pains of these states protesting and demanding for a secured north.

But bigots online and offline would come to tell you whole the whole northern states has been terrorized.

Once their is kidnapping in any village in Zamfara.

They will tell you tell that kidnapers are kidnapping in the north.

They will never tell you people were kidnapped in a village in Zamfara or Kastina rather they would say north.

They're are doing all this to send a signal that the whole of Northern state is unsafe.


Gombe is one of the safest state in Nigeria.

Bauchi is safe!!

Kano is safe!!

Adamawa is safe!!

Yobe is safe!!

Jigawa is safe!!

Kebbi is safe!!

Taraba is safe!!

And other northern states that hardly record case of robbery in a year.

But children of hate would come online to tell the world how unsafe the whole northern region is.

The north is not a state... The north is a region with 19 states.

The north will continue growing stronger!!


Keep lying to yourself.

Arrewa:
This is my protest!!

Any other protest is fake!!

Laughable. You now have the capacity to tell which is fake and which is not? Kaduna had a protest about end SARS too yesterday oga.
