KingAzubuike: How people think this guy can become a governor still baffles me. He is not presentable so what criteria are y'all using to judge him exactly.
uju22: Always tribalising everything, how on Earth can you compare this one with what the northerners did. How many people did you see in that picture. Let's be cautious with our words please.
Social distancing is the same whether 2 people or a hoard of them. Guess it's ok to tribalise when it involves notherners but not okay when it's southerners right?
Wisdom is justified by her children (result). How did Idris Elba's wife contract Covid-19? By throwing caution to the wind because she wanted to be a good wife by disregarding social distance when her husband was diagnosed positive.
Don't get me wrong, it's difficult not to get emotional in situations like this, but it doesn't mean that the truth should not be said.
You're the same lot criticising the Northerners for the same thing when they felt obligated to attend the burial of their emir. But you suddenly forget social distance because you're fans of the persons in question.
Anyway, who am I to judge anyone? I'm just a keen observer.
Aldebaran: Advice given more than 1,400 years by Islam's Prophet Muhammad has gone viral in 2020, as the world grapples with the coronavirus outbreak.
A billboard has been erected in Chicago to advise locals on how to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, using age-old advice from Islam’s Prophet Muhammad.
The advertisement, organised by Gain Peace in the United States, outlines how the Prophet of Islam historically dealt with pandemics during his time, all of which are guidelines set by world health organisations to deal with the current Covid-19 outbreak.
"Wash your hands frequently, don't leave infected areas and don’t visit infected areas," the billboard says, advise linked to Islam's final messenger.
The guidelines are based on historic hadith, or narration, of the Prophet which has been widely shared across social media platforms since the current coronavirus outbreak began to spread across the world last year.
Prophet Muhammad said, according to the narration
"When you hear that a plague is in a land, do not enter it and if the plague breaks out in a place while you are in it, do not leave that place,"
"Do not place a sick patient with a healthy person," the Prophet adds in another narration.
The centuries-old advice has resonated with millions of people across the globe as Covid-19 infects more than 2,419,194 and killed 165,775 worldwide.
Governments across the world - from the US to Iran - have come under fire for not responding in time to stem the spread of the outbreak.
Their instructions now to stop the spread of coronavirus appears to mirror the advise of the Prophet, which appears relevant for the modern-day.
"Prophet Muhammad established a religion built upon revelation and intellect. The Quran is the revelation which gives us our way of life, and with every new age and civilisation the intellect is our guiding light and what he referred to as our 'inner prophet'," Lecturer Hussain Makke told The New Arab.
"With this pandemic, not only does the intellect emphasise taking all precautionary measures, as to avoid the virus, but revelation itself forbids the harming of others or self-harm.
"Prophet Muhammad's advice on general cleanliness, prioritising community support in daily life and even specifically quarantining during a pandemic leaves us yearning for a leader like him in these times," he added.
The only thing timeless here is how fools will remain fools no matter the century.
What you call timeless advice is common sense to any intelligent person.
But then seeing videos of muslims protesting against the lockdown explains why this would appear to be an intelligent advice to Muslims. Majority of its followers are clearly the dumb, uneducated dregs of the society.
Kokoboss: wow thanks so much brother. I don't miss prayers. I wake up every morning 3am
Yet you insult your neighbours from 6am till 11pm every day. Kontinu.
I hope you're atleast yoruba muslim and not the hausa muslims who pray just before taking the lives of innocent people just for not sharing your slave beliefs.
But if you are a type of person that don't like eating at that time of the day, you can take little water or Little fruits like date, pepper fruit etc as your suhur.
But not taking anything before the commencement of the day's fasting. I haven't seen an Hadith about it.
Can't you people think for yourselves?
I celebrate the day I was delivered from religious bondage.
Founder, Daar communications High Chief Raymond Dokpesi discharged from hospital alongside two of his grandchildren after testing negative for Coronavirus.
High Chief Raymond Dokpesi though grateful to God for his recovery from Covid-19 but questions why malaria patients are taken as Covid-19 patients, to him it's food for thought for another day
Apparently Covid-19 is updated Malaria 2.0. No wonder it's not much of a pandemic in Africa.

BlackBuhari: GOVERNOR OBIANO VISITS BRIDGE HEAD ONISTHA EXPRESSES DISSATISFACTION AT COMPLIANCE
Governor Willie Obiano has expressed dissatisfaction at the low level of compliance at Anambra Bridgehead boundary, Onitsha.
Governor Obiano made the expression when he paid a surprise visit to the bridge.
On arrival, there was a long queue of human and vehicular movement, most people, without face masks and unmindful of the social distance protocol.
The Governor who was visibly angry, directed the Police Commissioner to block the two ends, to reduce human and vehicular traffic.
The State Police Commissioner, Mr John Abang, Commissioner for Transport, Dr Christian Madubuko, and other members of the COVID-19 Committee, were also present.
Recall that during his last broadcast, Governor Obiano announced a shutdown of all boundaries in the State, with exception of essential service providers.

MizJanet: why dont pastors preach this verse ? lol , the average churchman has been brainwashed to belive he gat a duplicate life , a soul form that goes to either heaven or hell after he died, ask such ones , what happen to their body after death ? they tell you it decompose . but the below is something that uv never been told or never given a second thought
Matthew 5:29 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
YOUR WHOLE BODY go to hellfire ? not just a made up soul
the question is: how many human body have you seen disappearing to hellfire?
This single verse has plagued Christians since the beginning of AD (death of Christ.) Different bible scholars have shared various exegesis and eisegesis on the intention of Christ when he stated this very high and obviously impossible standard of righteousness in what is today known as the Sermon on the Mount.
Mention this verse to any Christian and they will be quick to tell you their pastor's explanation which of course they hold as the only divine interpretation.lol That said, most pastors will tell you it is a figurative expression to ridicule the Jewish audience who pride themselves in their acts of self-righteousness. Christ apparently knowing that no one could ever live up to this standard of righteousness, yet declaring it to be the only standard of righteousness that is admissible in heaven. This supposedly is to make one rely on the provision of Grace which is accessible only through Christ. Grace making one assume the Righteousness of God through Christ.
However, it is ironic that they do not consider the other portions of the same chapter figurative. How convenient. I believe it is as straight forward as it is. Christ was not being figurative but as literal as it is.
Now to answer the question if the bible was referring to the human body and not the soul. I believe this is apparent. This verse refers to the human physical body. But while considering this as a high standard expected of the body, don't forget to also put into consideration the expectation of the soul and the spirit.lol The bible does make it clear, that a person has to be perfect in body, spirit and soul.
"May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." 1 Thessalonians 5:23
The irony once again is that the same bible that says you are the Righteousness of God through the Grace of Christ, still expects you to be perfect in body, soul and spirit before the coming of Christ. Which is why I say the bible is self-contradictory in so many ways.
I rest my case hoping to learn from the opinions of others.
(1) You are a confirmed CLOWN for saying a book is complicated yet at the same time picking those who don't understand what is complicated claiming some are going on well with the complications!
(2) This discussion is based on the so called complicated book but your friend whom you said got the understanding of the complicated book is pointing accusing finger at fellow admirers of a complicated book!
But for your information Sir there are over 8.7 million people from different race on this planet who have formed one big and happy family of peace loving worshipers due to the study of this same complicated book, and the other book that you claimed is NOT complicated have failed to produce something of that nature!
Like i said early, you either have a low IQ or a compulsive lying disorder. Never have I said the bible is complicated. It is quite an easy book to understand, once you are able to devote your time to study it.
On the contrary, I have continuously emphasised on it's inconsistensies and contradictions which notable bible scholars have also affirmed.
You need to be more "Christian" in the fruits you're bearing becausei don't recall lying being a fruit of the spirit. But then again maybe lying is a fruit in JW.
Localemperor: Its is no longer news that I have been declared insolvent. After all effort to maintain my liquidity level to no avail I decide to let her go.
Just as organization retrenched worker during periods of economic downturn in order to cut cost of operations, I sent her a massage expressing my regret and reasons.
I feed her I pay money for hair dressing I buy clothes I take her out every weekend I buy shoes I do everything thinkable
She works and earns but I still wonder why she would want me to do everything for her. I compiled my income statement and statement of financial position for the first quarter and found out that expenditures have exceeded income and debt is on the rise.
So I wholeheartedly declared my self insolvent yesterday and decided to cut cost in order to protect my goodwill.
Sirnuel: I don't think its right to tag everyone with a different political opinion than yours as Enemy of the state. If this country beta, na all of us go enjoy am. Every serious president & vice the world over are doing everything in their power to reassure their citizens that they have things under control. but here, Both the president and his vice are no where to be found, A new COS was appointed and rumours were already spreading even before official confirmation.
Now be truthful to yourself, is this how a country is supposed to be??
You sound like a newby in politics. Opposition is opposition because of it's responsibility to fault the incumbent. Whether it is productive or counterproductive is not the issue here.
So labelling opposition as Enemy of State is just stating the political obvious, nothing else.
Maximus69: Janosky my brother, Myer is the funniest clown of them all!
He declared the Bible is full of contradictions and complicated, yet he wants to define the people accurately reflecting what is complicating!
Am I funny for stating the obvious? Do I amuse you because I'm at liberty to say what you don't have the effrontry to say because of your religious affiliation?
If the bible is not full of contradictions and inconsistencies why are we even having this discussions on this thread? Why are there innumerable denominations and factions in the Christian fold when all claim to believe in the same God, Jesus Christ and the same bible.
No sir, if anyone is funny here, it should be you and other Christians who can't even exhibit the liberty the same bible has given you to acknowledge the discrepancies, contradictions and inconsistencies in the bible all because it is supposedly a sacred and holy book. Ironically you don;t have a problem faulting the Torah and the Koran.
Janosky: John 17:22, the same glory Jesus gave his disciples... So his disciples are Deity.. ALL of them share am.... Freshboi know NOTHING !!!! Jesus Christ done confirm Say Freshboi know NOTHING !!!!
22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one—
24 “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world."
The glory Yahweh gave Jesus, he gave to his disciples, according to Freshboi GIBBERISH , therefore "Jesus disciples are Deity.
I understand the scriptures you have quoted. What I don't understand is how you are the glory of God. You who have no likeness of God or Christ for that matter. Fruit of the spirit, you're lacking. Healing power, you're lacking. Even wisdom, you're lacking.
Maybe your conversion is questionable or somebody lied.
Omooba77: Centurion built Synagogue. Cornelius was a devouted man.. Acts 10: 2 A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway. Dorcas was a giver
You should hide your ignorance some more, it's becoming embarrassing. You simply quote what your prosperity pastors swindle you with.
They managed to brainwash you to believe that Good healed the centurion's servant because he built the synagogue right? When Christ himself said it was simply his exceptiona faith that healed him. And that's why you're also sowing seed into your pastor's life and every building project of the church right? Kontinu
With Cornelius and Dorcas, was it their tithes or good deeds? Don't twist the bible sir.
Nodogragra4me: You don't deserve a response ... Go and read your book and Bible or better still read the comments and rejoinders here , it may help you even better .,you abolished something without saying something...are you are not as good as been called a mad man .. Read Matt 23:23 aloud in basic English version
Let me entertain your ignorance some more. What do yo think is the difference between the old testament and the new testament?
So you can now determine which of the groups has been consistent when the book in itself is filled with so many inconsistencies and contradictions which has led to the explosion in different translations eisegesis and denominations!
You're welcome!
Do you know that JW is more likely to be considered a Jewish organisation than a Christian organisation? Because you hold the old testament laws more rigidly than the liberty promised in the new testament. Even the Holy Spirit that differentiates the New testament from the Old, is just a force to you and not a manifestation of God.
You are not even allowed to drink the holy communion which Christ commanded everyone to partake in rememberamce of him.
You're either very low in IQ or you have just been brainwashed. I really wamt to believe it's the latter.
