Am still trying to find out what Both AKA and MI did to warrant attacks and even death threats.

Even rooting out his old tweets to buttress their points, as a Real Madrid fan,if I say I don't mind loosing to athletic or sevilla instead of barca people just automatically assume I hate and wish death on all barca fans? Its fvcking sports and a competitive one at that damn it!

Nigerians are one big herd(like the zombies),as burna boy threaten everybody just join.

This has gone from Nigerians against xenophobia to Nigerians against AKA and MI.

Same way they passed off a dunce like Buhari as best thing ever...one person jumps on the train and every other person follows blindly.

tpiander:
I don't know who MI is (no bio was included), but it seems to me the threateners' grouse with the AKA rapper is because he told a fellow rapper not to wish he were Nigerian but to be proud of his own country.

Now, what I don't understand is this: do Nigerians in that demographic ( I mean the audiences) really assume other countries also like to migrate and collect several countries' nationalities like us?

What exactly were they offended about? Perhaps I don't get it.

Although I do know most Nigerians here on nairaland, have a problem correcting their peers who post such nonsense topics it makes you question their sanity.

Some years back, after a Sunday morning Mass in Abuja, a young and a good looking lady walked up to me. She was holding a fat brown envelope. She handed the envelope to me and said I should please pray for her.

I asked her about the content of the envelope and what particular intention would I be praying for?
She told me that she started working just a month ago and that she came to thank the Lord and to offer the first fruit of her work for God’s blessings.
What was in the envelope was her salary for that month. Her first salary. The entire money! Everything!.

In all honesty, I was speechless not for lack of words but for being unable to know where to begin. Inside me I was like: do people still entrust everything they have to God in a child-like simplicity like this? I was really moved.

In my heart, I said a prayer for her, that type of prayer that is deep down, it was as though it was the Holy Spirit Himself that was praying through me. I was feeling the answers to the prayers even before I finished praying.

Then she knelt down, I laid my hands upon her and blessed her and the money.

After prayers, I asked her to tell me how much was in the envelope. She said Eighty Thousand Naira.

Then I asked, “how much covers your transport to your work daily?”.

She said “approximately N1,000 naira to and fro, Father.” That means for 27 work days, it would be N27,000.

Then I spoke up again, “Sorry o, I am asking you too many questions, how much do you feed daily when you go to work?”.
She answered “It depends. If I want to eat so well, I spend 800 naira with drinks, but mainly I spend just N500, and sometimes I carry food from home.”

So, I made the calculation in my head. Let say she spends 500 naira daily, 27 work days would be 13,500 naira.
I went ahead to enquire about her accommodation and I discovered that she stayed alone in an apartment she just rented. We made the calculation by dividing the annual rent by 12 months and we discovered that if she was to pay rent monthly, it would be N12,500.

Her monthly electricity and water bill with other fees for house maintenance was put at N10,000....On phone calls and data, we approximated it to be N5000 monthly. Her monthly DSTV subscription was around N3,600 for DSTV family bouquet.

When you put all the expenses together and subtract it from the N80,000, she would be left with N8,400 to buy food stuffs and other things in the house.
These are the expenses that she wss sure to spend every month. We had not even talked about other things like make up, doing her hair, clothes, gifts to family and even savings.
This is a huge sacrifice, in my judgement. I intentionally asked her those questions so as to ascertain the depth of her sacrifice.

I brought out the envelope, bless it for the second time and gave it to her. I looked at her countenance and I knew she was not too comfortable with my action. Then I took time to explain the Bible to her. That was when I discovered that so many people do not truly understand how God works.

When God asks us for first fruit or for tithe or for any sacrifice, it is not so that He will eat it. No! He has no need of our money. When He asked Abraham to sacrifice his only son, it was not because he liked seeing the blood of innocent children.

When He asked Abel and Cain to make a sacrifice to Him, it was not because he ate fruit or even drank blood of rams. It is simply to test how committed we are, how willing are we to leave everything to Him. Do we, like Cain, select offerings that we no longer desire and give to Him or do we, like Abel, empty everything to Him?

This lady that brought the first fruit began to understand for the first time. Right from when she put the money in the envelope to bring to God, God had already accepted her offering. The minister must not spend the money. It is just that most of us ministers are unfortunately greedy. And we use God’s name to cover it up. We often see the part of scriptures that favour our stomach.*

Theologically, when you give to God, He transforms that gift and gives it back to you. The bread and wine people offer before mass are transformed to the body and blood of Christ and given back to the people to eat and drink.

The son Isaac that Abraham gave to God, was transformed to be a channel that would bring....forth the fulfillment of God’s promise and given back to Abraham.
The offerings of bread and fish people brought were prayed upon and given back to them to eat and they were filled, still there was left over.

The water they filled at the wedding in Cana is given back to them as wine..
The Ugwu Kelvin that my parents offered to God, is given back to them as a priest.

The money that the young lady brought to me as her first fruit is blessed and given back to her as pure gift from heaven.

@ op, for a responsible man, it's actually more difficult finding the right person because he is majorly responsible for his actions especially if he intends to stay in the marriage without cheating.

Because there is no perfect human beings anywhere there is no perfect marriage anywhere. Working marriages are just two people who decide to be realistic in their expectations and are committed to making it work.

My dear, if you define 'luck' as preparation meeting opportunity then you are right. But the question is , how many people truly prepare for the institution of marriage? What we see these days is two people start having sex and the lady gets pregnant and the next thing is a rushed wedding ceremony.

Singles do not read, listen to tapes of watch videos that will give them information on how to make marriage work. On one side they will rather stay on Instagram and Facebook achieving nothing. On the other side they will keep praying and and dashing from one vigil to another.

Marriage is the truest test of anyone's character. And it takes commitment and maturity to make it work. Sadly these are not virtues that are extolled today. Even in churches. So men (and I dare say women) who have no good intentions find their way to lure the naive.

Just as you see all manner of adverts on television advertising different products and you choose which one you need, you will always see numerous inbox messages. This is not abnormal.

What you need to do is set your minimum ground rules of deal breakers such as faith, age, education etc (whichever is important to you). This will weed out a good chunk. Then you can begin to look at character flews that you can or can't live with. Also you need a father figure (not necessarily your father) or a male you can trust his judgement to help out. The reason is that there are always blind spots in relationships and you need a trusted eye to see it.

Lastly, there is the God factor, because of our imperfect nature, we need the one with a perfect mind to help you and give the wisdom when the rubber meets the road.

Believe me marriage can be one of the best things that can happen to one. I am a living witness.

The boy exposed his father's unclothedness.



Not all Northeners are Hausa Fulani.

In Nassarawa, there are 29 languages, of which AWE (cited LGA in the article) has few of those.

OzziOhonoyi, OhiOfIhima, do you know that there is Ebira tribe in Nassarawa?

One of the worst damages that is being done to the Nigerian image abroad is not the fraudulent acts perpetrated by some of its citizens per se, it is the mindless battle between cyber warriors, disgruntled citizens and political e-rats, trying to outdo one another, in their support of their favored candidates and political paymasters.

We are definitely not the most corrupt people in the world, but we are probably one of the most materially flashy, socially noisy and verbally toxic online. We are also one of the most negative minded citizens of any country, in the entire universe.

What we fail to realize is that, the internet is a global data collection and indoctrination system. The narratives we input into it will always comes back to either elevate our status globally, or bite us in the ass.

There are so many Nigerians doing great things in medicine, tech, sports, law, business, governance and many more fields, all over the world, but there are not enough platforms to promote these much needed positive narratives.

We will keep suffering indignity and shameful treatments at international airports and borders all over the world, until we understand that there is no country on earth that doesn't have its share of crimes and criminals, in various proportions.

They just don't let it define them and they don't openly show incredible disdain for their country on the internet while bemoaning that same disdain others show them for the same reason.

We will be alright las las!

Women are naturally confused being and insatiable... They don't know what they want and don't trust themselves.

It's only a woman that will have a wardrobe filled with cloth and yet can decide what to wear.

Only a woman will tell u they need a kind, caring, God fearing and honest guy yet they will neglect good guys settle for the bad guys cos they good guy is too soft.

Guys important advice to u all, you can never ever satisfy any woman on this earth cos even their Creator God they still don't like the way HE created gave them.

He gave them;
hair, they remove and add weavon.
Eyes lashes, they add mascara.
Eye brow, they shave it and re-draw with pencil
Face they add foundation plus other building materials,
Lips, they put lipstick
Boobies and bums, they go do surgery or wear foam bra or skirt,
Height, they use high Hills,
Nails they add artificial plus paint
Nose the put nose rings or even surgery.

I see disturbing exchange between sexes here and I really don't know how matured peeps here are.

Is it possible one find a responsible marriageable man here?

Rebuke:
Smh. I don't really know what makes some of these so called celebrities feel relevant.

I have no atom of respect for any lady who has no moral standard. If yhu like be the most beautiful and the richest lady on earth, so long as yhu don't know what decency is, yhu are so irrelevant to me.

Unfortunately, most of our youths these days glorify indecency, they praise n adore women who dress scantily and speak rubbish.

It's so hard these days to find decent youths. everybody now has his or her own definition of decency. And the "judge me not" syndrome won't let them pay attention to truths.

These ladies display and teach nothing than immorality yet some people will jump to defend them because their immoral and lustful heart is entertained by them (indecent ladies).


I will make sure my children don't know anything about the existence of some of these decaying so called celebrities not to even think of idolising them as we have some kids do these days.


Lost generation!

EternalBeing:
Christianity is more than just going to Church every Sunday, or just praying every morning when you wake up and every night before you close your eyes to sleep. Christianity is being dead to the "lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life", and being alive in the Jesus Christ which allows the Holy Spirit to live through you by using you to impart this World for good according to His Will.

I got born again years ago through the preaching of Pastor W.F. Kumuyi that I heard. Imagine if Kumuyi refused to give up sinful life for his current life of Holiness that brought me and million others to salvation in Christ, I was strongly on a particular path already which guaranteed I would have been an armed robber that would have killed so many by now, and maybe would have been killed too. I wonder how many millions around the World, who were in similar situation as mine, got converted by the eternal truth that God used this man and his likes to reveal. So, the most important reason why you should become a real Christian is not just for the salvation of your soul and the reward of living forever that follows, but for the sake of those destinies that are tied to your salvation.

It should be noted that it is currently extremely difficult in this end time Generation, if not utterly impossible, for a human to fulfill his/her God-given glorious Destiny without the help and intervention of our Creator, which can never come without us being Holy; Hebrews 12:14 "... Holiness, without which no one will see the Lord" . Holiness is the prerequisite for us to be supernaturally empowered to triumph over the whiles of this World. Satan uses trials of life to fight many innately glorious people into submission and worship of himself in order to use the special gifts that God created into them to destroy humanity and pervert the Purpose of God for the World. Becoming a real Christian, with holiness within and without, is the only way to triumph and fulfill your glorious Destiny in accordance with the original Purpose for which God created you. Not matter the trials, don't ever jettison your original for the fake quick fix glory that Satan offers in exchange for your eternal Soul. Grace of God keep us unto eternity in Christ in Jesus Name.
