He will still win just like he did in 2015 in spite of your hate.

Elections in the South East are different from the rest of Nigeria.

Federal might always win.

Ask Alex Oti

Ask Martin's Elechi.
Federal might wins where? Why didn't Ikedi Ohakim win while with the PDP for his second tenure? The voice of the people ousted him out that lead to the President Buhari Okorocha coming into power. His son in-law will lose 2019 if he manages to fly their flag.
Christianity EtcRe: 7 Reasons Why Every Believer Should Speak In Tongues - Kenneth E Hagin by NickD(m): 2:09pm On May 06, 2018
ladiesreject:
The author of this piece must be from Christ Embassy.

They like speaking in tongues more than anything in the world.

Whether they are led by the spirit or not, they just want to speak.

SMH for them.
Hahaha you know them. First encounter I had with them was in FUTO because my ex attended the church. First day I went they asked if I could speak in tongues, which I responded NO. Next thing I heard was WE'LL TEACH YOU HOW TO. How can you teach someone the fruit of the spirit such as Speaking in tongues. Christianity has suffered sha..what God will judge on the last day plenty. I pray his mercy falls on us all.
Christianity EtcRe: 7 Reasons Why Every Believer Should Speak In Tongues - Kenneth E Hagin by NickD(m): 2:04pm On May 06, 2018
Day2logic:
I get offended when I see you pastors wannabes mislead people without having idea of what message you are spreading. You pick one favorable verse out a whole chapter when the rest of the chapter doesnt correspond with everything else you are trying to put out. Christians these days have completely ignore apostle Paul's teaching, there are different doctrines which is not supposed to be and also different churches which is wrong but we can always talk about that later.

Now about speaking in tongue this is what Apostle Paul had to say;

1st Corinthians 14:1-40
1) Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy.
2) For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries with his spirit.
3) But everyone who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort.
4) He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.
5) I would like every one of you to speak in tongues, but I would rather have you prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, so that the church may be edified.
6) Now, brothers, if I come to you and speak in tongues, what good will I be to you, unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or word of instruction?
7) Even in the case of lifeless things that make sounds, such as the flute or harp, how will anyone know what tune is being played unless there is a distinction in the notes?
cool Again, if the trumpet does not sound a clear call, who will get ready for battle?
9) So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air.
10) Undoubtedly there are all sorts of languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning.
11) If then I do not grasp the meaning of what someone is saying, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and he is a foreigner to me.
12) So it is with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, try to excel in gifts that build up the church.
13) For this reason anyone who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret what he says.

14) For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.
15) So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind; I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind.
16) If you are praising God with your spirit, how can one who finds himself among those who do not understand say "Amen" to your thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying?
17) You may be giving thanks well enough, but the other man is not edified.
18) I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you.
19) But in the church I would rather speak five intelligible words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue.
20)Brothers, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be adults.
21) In the Law it is written: "Through men of strange tongues and through the lips of foreigners I will speak to this people, but even then they will not listen to me," says the Lord.
22) Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers; prophecy, however, is for believers, not for unbelievers.
23) So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and some who do not understand or some unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your mind?
24) But if an unbeliever or someone who does not understand comes in while everybody is prophesying, he will be convinced by all that he is a sinner and will be judged by all,
25) and the secrets of his heart will be laid bare. So he will fall down and worship God, exclaiming, "God is really among you!"
26) What then shall we say, brothers? When you come together, everyone has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. All of these must be done for the strengthening of the church.
27) If anyone speaks in a tongue, two--or at the most three--should speak, one at a time, and someone must interpret.
28) If there is no interpreter, the speaker should keep quiet in the church and speak to himself and God.
29) Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said.
30) And if a revelation comes to someone who is sitting down, the first speaker should stop.
31) For you can all prophesy in turn so that everyone may be instructed and encouraged.
32) The spirits of prophets are subject to the control of prophets.
33) For God is not a God of disorder but of peace. As in all the congregations of the saints,
34) women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says.
35) If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.
36) Did the word of God originate with you? Or are you the only people it has reached?
37) If anybody thinks he is a prophet or spiritually gifted, let him acknowledge that what I am writing to you is the Lord's command.
38) If he ignores this, he himself will be ignored.
39) Therefore, my brothers, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues.
40) But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way.

One day. I am going to open a thread and write everything I have read in the bible that every pastor especially Africans have turned upside down to favor them. From women anchoring programs in churches to women not covering their heads, to churches having different names and doctrine under one body "Christ" to offering and tithes and pastors extravagant lives to calling pastors daddies and their wives mommies its all there in the bible.
God bless you my brother.

Must you play politics with every situation. You are the governor, you need to look for solution on how to reduce the soot. You can't be collecting allocations and security votes and you still want to rely on federal government to do everything for you.
The solution lies with the Federal govt, cause if he attempts to do it on his own it would be confrontational...alot of high ranking navy and military personnel are the ones sponsoring the kpo fire. It has turned a lucrative business.

It depends on what your objectives are.. I can still make three more papers from my work, but just want to focus on the mandatory two and leave as quickly as I can because I'm tired and exhausted..

You mustn't wait till the 1yr 6months left, if you have a supportive supervisor you could conclude before your colleagues
Thanks bro I have a clearer picture in mind on how to go about it based on objectives

Was the OP written by a professor?? The grammatical potholes are just too many for comfort.

For what its worth he did give some useful insight into the world of the PhD.

Secondly I see some comments claiming one can get a PhD in 3yrs!! Na winch?? The minimum, on paper, in most universities, is 4yrs, but in reality you usually need a much longer time.
Pass an info your sure of. I'll recommend you visit any of the academic centers in the University of Port Harcourt. You will be amazed at the time you would finish a PhD currently.

Nice write up Dr. I recall starting my program in late 2014 with enthusiasm, but just like you mentioned, it gets really tough along the way. From having my supervisor abandon me for three months to go treat malaria in the UK to December last year when I almost gave up on the program. In fact, I fell sick when my thesis was turned upside down and asked to rework it. Its been God only. Just last Friday at a seminar presentation at the faculty I managed to pull through. I'm less than 30, but with strands of grey hair. Presently preparing for plag test and two journal publication before grad school & external defense, hopeful to round up by March.
Nonetheless, its worth the experience.

I love him so much, he do love me also
I have told him about his church severally, he said that I'm telling story until i comes in as his wife, he will decide if I will go to my church or not.
He is a serious catholic member, charismatic member.
I am So confused because my family and church members told me, he won't change because of him rather I will b the one. .
I don't want to leave him.
I don't just know what to do!
He is even a charismatic member... whoever told u catholics don't believe in the holy spirit has fed u tonnes of lie. Settle this with him but a woman has no church till she's married. if u don't like it break it off.
RomanceRe: I Don’t Love Her by NickD(m): 9:36am On Dec 28, 2017
jaykorbs:
Hi nairalanders, this is my story, don’t judge me, just advice me on a way out, there is this lady I asked out towards the end of 2016, I will be frank with you, my sole aim back then was to hook up with her and for us to enjoy sex together, basically, I was just after sex. I know nothing about the lady.

She was teaching in one primary school in my area at that point in time, I said a lot of shit back then just to get her to say yes, as I got to know her, I found out she had lost both parent at a tender age and so many other things, she has really passed through a lot, herself and her junior sister.

As time goes on, the relationship gained an exponential momentum and before I could realize what was going on, my family and friends dan sabi her, calling her my wife, let me add that she is 19 and I am 24 (just wrote my last undergraduate exam a
couple of months ago, while she is currently working at one food canteen).

Over the course of 2017, I have picked up a lot of manly lessons and have decided to set my life in order in the coming year, yes, I have dropped a lot of boyish attitude and selfish characters, I can confidently call myself a changed individual, although a lot of improvement still have to be made.

As I mentioned earlier, I have decided to set my life in order this coming year, with her being part of it, the truth is, I don’t love her, but to my understanding, she really loves me, I am currently still in this relationship because I am afraid of making her sad, I am in this relationship at the moment because of pity, she will be devasted when I break up with her, my friends are telling me not to go ahead with it, that I am about to make a big mistake if I call off the relationship, I just know I don’t love her, I very much like her, but the love to consider her for marriage ain’t there. She is beside me as I type this, I seriously need help on how to call of this relationship without breaking her spirit because she is a fighter.
U had a long time to end this yet u didn't...u let her get close to ur friends and family now u wanna break up cos u don't love her n wanna set ur life right. Good u realized it now but then ur a selfish person, just say ur tired of the sex then wait for ur karma pretty soon.

The west are the ultimate heathens.
The west is feminine or matriarchal in religion hence the exaltation of the female folk both in politics,movies and even in the home.
They gave us madonna or semiramis or isis or innana or nne chi as Mary.
Why will the catholic Jesus take orders from his mother and not from his father?
What happened to God,his father?
Catholic and Islam are fraud because they both came from the Vatican,instruments of mind control and exploitation.
You have used ur own term ORDER to suit ur level of bias and understanding. Did any catholic tell you theres no God or that its only through BVM that we must pray? Understand the rationale before u judge anyone...U are not God. That a church decides to give honour to a woman who brought the saviour of the world shouldnt be ur business. Live n let others live. At the end it's not about the church u worship but ur relationship with ur maker.
