What is even more painful is how society sometimes appears to normalise these tragedies as though they are ordinary occurrences. In times past, such incidents would shake the conscience of the nation.

They named a generator "I beta pass my neighbour", and you expect them to have a conscience?

Ex-President Goodluck Jonathan on Saturday lamented what he described as the growing normalisation of insecurity, killings and violence in Nigeria, warning that the country is gradually losing its moral values and sense of humanity.

Jonathan spoke at the Anglican Diocese of Abuja’s first session of the 13th Synod in Abuja.

In his goodwill message, Jonathan called for national reflection, spiritual renewal and responsible leadership amid the country’s worsening social and security challenges.

According to him, many Nigerians have become desensitised to bloodshed and destruction, unlike in the past when tragic incidents provoked national outrage and collective grief.

He said, “As someone who has spent many years in public life and politics, I must confess that moments like this provide an opportunity for sober reflection on the state of our society.

“When we look around today, particularly at the challenges confronting our country, it is easy to become discouraged. Violence, insecurity, moral decline, and the loss of human values have become deeply troubling realities.

“What is even more painful is how society sometimes appears to normalise these tragedies as though they are ordinary occurrences. In times past, such incidents would shake the conscience of the nation.

“Today, people are killed, communities are destroyed, and life seems to continue as though nothing has happened. This ought not to be so. It is a reminder that society desperately needs moral direction, spiritual guidance, and a restoration of values.”

The former President emphasised that the Church remains crucial in shaping society and upholding moral standards, urging religious leaders to continue speaking the truth and defending righteousness.

He also warned about the growing influence of negative values through technology and modern information systems, saying many harmful behaviours are now glorified in society.

“That is why the role of the Church remains indispensable. The Church must continue to stand as the conscience of society, speaking truth, defending righteousness, and shaping lives through faith and godly example.

“The influence of modern technology and information systems, though beneficial in many ways, has also contributed to the spread of negative values where wrong is sometimes celebrated more than good. This is not the future we should desire for our children and generations yet unborn,” he added.

“Permit me to also say that leadership matters greatly in moments like this. Society progresses when men and women of integrity, courage, and vision stand in the right places and speak the truth. We must continue to pray for our leaders, encourage one another, and work collectively for peace, justice, and national renewal,” Jonathan said.

Also speaking, former Primate of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion), Peter Akinola described the conference as both symbolic and strategic, particularly at a time when the global Anglican Communion is confronting what he called a “revisionist agenda.”

Akinola said the gathering had continued to leave lasting memories and impact within the Anglican community years after it was held.

He also expressed satisfaction that foreign delegates who attended the conference left Nigeria with a positive impression of the country despite what he described as negative portrayals by sections of the international media.

“It is evident that our foreign delegates departed with a far better impression of Nigeria, contrary to the negative narratives often projected by sections of the foreign media about our beloved nation.

“I remain proud of this achievement and urge you all to keep up the good fight of faith,” he stated.

For the past three years or more I found myself speaking in strange tongues and it have been a thing of joy for me

For three years you have been speaking in a strange tongue and it was of great joy to you, then recently it began to give you nightmares?

You never tire for all these your lies gregory?

Former Anambra Governor and chieftain of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Peter Obi, has explained the reasons behind his exit from both the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Obi made the clarification during an interview on News Central TV.

According to him, his political decisions have always been guided by principles rather than personal interests.

“Some men change parties because of their principles, some others change their principles for the sake of their party,” Obi said.

“So for me, I changed party because of my principle because I’ve been in a system where you can see that it is no longer what you believe in, what you want to practice.

“I left APGA because I was forced to leave. I left PDP because of my principles.

“You cannot say you’re going into a destination but the process of going there has compromised your principles.”

"The current president has put us in this suffering."

Nigerians put themselves in this suffering. Its not surprising because suffering and smiling is their talent.

"I don’t know why he wants to run again"

Because he knows that an average Nigerian can sell his or her vote for a bag of rice and few cartoons of indomie.

An African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential aspirant, Rotimi Amaechi, on Thursday said President Bola Tinubu’s “emi lokan” mentality is responsible for the current sufferings of Nigerians.

Amaechi cautioned Nigerians against voting for Tinubu again in 2027

The former Minister of Transportation spoke with reporters after submitting his presidential nomination forms in Abuja.

He insisted that Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress, APC, should be ashamed of themselves, stressing that the party should not participate in the 2027 elections due to the current hardship in the country.

Amaechi said, “Nigerians should vote for merit, not vote for those who say, ‘I’m from this place’ or ‘it is our turn.’

“It is the ‘Emilokan’ mentality that brought us here. It is our turn that brought us here. Now Nigerians are suffering.”

The former Rivers State governor lamented that Nigeria’s economy had been adversely hit by the bad policies of Tinubu’s government.

“There is no market for Christians, nor is there a market for Muslims, nor a market for northerners or southerners. The market has only one purpose, the naira. Nigerians are suffering.

“The current president has put us in this suffering. I don’t know why he wants to run again. I don’t even know why the APC wants to participate.

“They should be ashamed and allow other Nigerians to participate and change the country,” Amaechi added.

MrEar:
Kikikikiki

MaxInDHouse don't worry, the light , the lies get brighter.

He is finding it difficult to believe that God has predestined his life to accept lies.

I don't blame him Sha. Peter was very correct.

1 Peter 2:8 – “They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.”

MaxInDHouse:
When you've chosen to put the blame on God due to lack of wisdom how do you expect me to start arguing aimlessly with you?😂

Little child go and ask God for mercy.

Paul said in romans 9:18 So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills.

Pray that God should have mercy on you rather than harden your heart to keep accepting only lies.

Go ahead and quote me while I ignore you.

MaxInDHouse:
God's fault!😂

You cannot debate the scriptures I am giving you. Thank God you are learning.

MaxInDHouse:
So when a thief comes to rob you and kill members of your family don't blame anyone rather blame God who PREDESTINED everything!😂

Lol, Let me give you another scripture so that you will know God has predestined you to believe lies.

Proverbs 16:4
“The LORD has made everything for its purpose, even the wicked for the day of trouble.”

I have given you three scripture now, but you will never believe truth because you have been predestined to accept lies.

MaxInDHouse:
That's predestination nah so it's God's fault not mine since i can't change it!😂

Good! Atleast you have learned something new today.

Predestination is real and you know what God has predestined you for.

MaxInDHouse:
What if God predestined me to be where i am?😂

Thats fine. That means you are a vessel prepared for destruction. No wonder you prefer lies than truth.

kayjordan:
To be frank with you, we don't really know - we weren't born in that Era to be able to tell which it was - neither can we tell if Jesus was black or white.


But the focal point is, the "object of sin" whether it's an apple, banana, or bra.


I do not have the scripture - but I hear often - "Forbidden Fruit".


So since that is established, it's specific type doesn't change the argument still.

If the fruit was not an apple why assume it was an apple? That would make the whole of your argument look like assumptions.

MaxInDHouse:
So God predestined him for destruction shey?

Romans 9:21 (KJV)

“Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?''

MaxInDHouse:
Please try to reason after reading what you see in the Bible!

Please try to look for a good church to attend not one that teach you lies.

MaxInDHouse:
First of all there is no predestination

Romans 9: 17-18
For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth. Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will have mercy, and whom he will he hardeneth.

Paul says God raised Pharaoh up for a specific divine purpose and hardened him. That is predestination.

kayjordan:
There's nothing wrong with an Apple - the Apple in Eden was just a prop of God to differentiate between good and bad.

Who told you the forbidden fruit was an apple? Kindly quote the scripture in the bible that says so.

I cant help but feel pity for married men most especially those ones that try hard to pretend they are happy.

If the very first union between Adam and Eve (a perfect man and a perfect woman) encountered problems, why should anyone expect the union of two imperfect people to be nothing but sweetness and ease?

The Apostle Paul was plain about it: “Those who marry will have tribulation in the flesh”

Frank Edoho, a famous Nigerian media personality and former host of ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, has vowed never to be committed to just one woman.

Edoho had sparked debate on social media regarding infidelity and the dynamics of forgiveness in marriage.

‎In a post on X, he warned men not to forgive cheating wives, noting that “she will not only continue cheating, but she will also resent the Man for forgiving her & disrespect him in extreme ways.”

Reacting to the post, a user @Wagon1011 asked if the media personality is single. “Frank are you single?”

In response, Edoho who stated that he has remained single after the crash of his second marriage, revealed his decision never to be committed to a woman again.

“Yes. I have had my share. Never getting committed again. Ever.”

DAILY POST recalls that in June 2025, the media personality announced the end of his second marriage to Sandra Onyenucheya.

He previously got married to broadcaster Katherine Obiang in 2003, and ended the seven year marriage in 2010.

Nigerian Christians are the worst.

You wont understand until you live with a very quarrelsome troublemaker uncooperative neighbour that keeps everybody awake at night with speaking in gibberish sorry, I meant speaking in tongues.

When ever you see bill gates run for your dear life. During Covid Lockdowns this man said millions will die in nigeria and he was laughing as he was saying it.

Demon in human skin.

MaxIntheHouse2:
Funny application!

Are you saying the sky has never been red before?
Ọmọ the sky changes but mostly it's blue everywhere you go that's exactly what you should know about JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES when someone is telling you they are child molesters but throughout your own coByentinent such is not the case with the same religion.
So if someone tells you the sky (JWs) is red will you agree when all you've ever seen is blue in your own area?

One last advice you need to know is learn how to realise when youve lost an argument and most importantly how to keep shut and end an aimless discussion. I know you will find it difficult to accept this advice and right now your fingers are probaly iching you to reply me so go ahead and type your reply. Type it since it will make you sleep well at night.

MaxIntheHouse2:
i know it's all LIES!

Thank God you used ''I".

That is your personal belief. You are free to believe that the sky is red if that makes you feel good. Doesnt change the fact that the sky is blue.

MaxIntheHouse2:
Ọmọ they are all LIES!

Like I said, you are free to think it is a lie but that doesnt make it a lie. The truth is out there for all to read. People are not stupid. They know when a news is fake and when it is real.

Troll smarter Mr Max.

MaxIntheHouse2:
You don't understand what is happening jàre!

So you expect Jesus and his disciples to start trolling people who claims Jesus and his followers are all betrayers shey?

Ọmọ that's not smart enough all a wise person will ask is:

Do you have this people in your own neighborhood?
Answer: YES, many of them!

So how many have you caught in your neighborhood practicing pedophilia?
Answer: None!

That's enough for wise people! Exodus 23:1-2

u cant win with the above bolded because you witnesseses did not catch one catholic priest molesting a boy before you believed the exposure your leaders published in your magazines and publications.... they will keep trolling you if you keep using that as a defense statement in your back and forth.

MaxIntheHouse2:
Ọmọ that's not what our oga taught us o:

“Happy are you when people reproach you and persecute you and lyingly say every sort of wicked thing against you for my sake. Rejoice and be overjoyed, since your reward is great in the heavens, for in that way they persecuted the prophets prior to you." Matthew 5:11-12

He never taught us to attack people's faith rather we are to present what is fine before the world! Matthew 5:14-16



We speak in defense of truth! 1Peter 3:15

u dont understand me.

ur reply makes it look like there is no pedophilia issue at all and all the news out there is fake. this reply makes u sound delusional because most of the news pics he posts are form well known reputable news organisations.

my advice is troll smarter. be smart in how you troll.

MaxIntheHouse2:
News you say not what is happening in your own neighborhood even though members of the religion are many around you!

see bro, u need to learn how to troll someone with resonable statements. u cant use the above to troll or defend your organisation because it doesnt change the facts. even though no pedophile witness in nigeria has been caught, it doesnt chnage the fact that your organisation has pedophile problems.

troll back with something smarter like, yes, we have that problem and we are wirking on it unlike you guys who are proud pedophiles marrying underage girls....

be smarter in your reply... and look for news pics too.

MaxIntheHouse2:
Which religion is proud of pedophilia in the world today?

Attack him with that next time he trolls you. Telling him he is lying about your oragnisation will make him troll harder because the truth is your organisation some bag eggs in it.

MaxIntheHouse2:
Will you allow a religionist whose religion you hate to preach to your child?

Oga rest. The news of your organisation is out there for all to read.

MaxIntheHouse2:
He chose lies after trying everything he could say against all those claiming believers in Christ but to Jehovah's Witnesses there's nothing to say other than his folklores!

you may see it as lies but that doesnt make it a lie.

DoWhatThouWilt:
I will prefer to worship with prosperity pastors than to worship with pedophile elders in congregation of jehovahs witnesses

u wan wreck this guy and e organisation by force.
