When God created heaven and earth, did He create money?

Did Adam, Eve die because of lack of money?

On this rock I will build my church, and the lack of money shall prevail against it.

I guess Christ should have said this if lack of money will really stop the work of the creator of heaven and earth.

Carefully check and confirm if you’ve not elevated money above the eternal creator.

Jesus has made his church to be self-sufficient ( the church and not individuals). That's why I'm pained when true Christians criticise tithing. Tithing is one of the factors that's propagating Christianity in Nigeria. We don't have incentives outside of the church compared to Muslims. Even when offered incentives the church ought to reject it. Christianity is never meant to be state religion. Individualism is a foundational value of the church even before the West copied it.
Are you telling us that without money, Christianity will die? 🤷

We lack strong rebels in Nigeria
What we have are paid vagabonds killing and kidnapping their own people in the name of liberation

Revolution is what Africa truly needs
A Cleanse up from top to bottom

We need a strong smart rebel
Not illiterates like Nnamdi kanu and igboho

We need courageous minds like Jk Rawlings
Arrest all corrupt politicians in Nigeria

Line them up for Firing squad
Execute them all. Simple

This is the only way Nigeria will develop
Democracy in Nigeria has been hijacked

It's time to delete all the virus and start a fresh
At the end of the day we know it won't happen
There are still sellouts eagerly waiting to replace the traitors.

My suggestion is to leverage on divination (like IFÁ for example) from different sources to identify leaders that have the best interests of Nigeria and Africa at heart.

Democracy is just another cleverly packaged scam.

The looting of DR Congo’s mineral resources continues at a rapacious level.

Rare earth, cobalts, coltan, all these minerals attracting the Chinese and the West are the raw materials for the smart phones/gadgets we use today.

Smuggling is one of the reasons the airspace in eastern DRC is among the busiest in the continent. As if that’s not enough, there are also airplanes in the jungles of east DRC!

Even the UN is complicit in the looting!

The exploiters are repeating the same template in Northern Nigeria.

Illegal mining and “banditry” in Nigeria is the same thing as Illegal mining and “mercenaries” in the DRC.

Wake up! Stop these foolish tribal wars and see how your present and future are stolen right before your eyes!

Children of Africa have no business with poverty!

TheCongo2:
Your perspective reflects the painful lessons learned from history. The Congolese people initially supported Laurent-Désiré Kabila, believing he would bring positive change after Mobutu’s decades-long rule. However, his alliance with foreign powers, particularly Rwanda and Uganda, led to prolonged instability, resource exploitation, and immense suffering.

We have learned from the mistakes of 1997 and understand the dangers of supporting rebel movements backed by foreign interests. The suffering and exploitation that followed Kabila’s rise to power, particularly with the involvement of Rwanda and Uganda, serve as a stark warning.

This is why many Congolese today are determined to defend the current government against any foreign-backed rebellion. They recognize that instability only benefits external forces seeking to plunder the country’s vast resources. The priority now is to strengthen national unity, reinforce sovereignty, and push for internal reforms that truly serve the interests of the Congolese people.
A stable and prosperous DR Congo & Africa is a threat to the imperialists.

I’m pretty sure they knew this as far back as the 1940s.

Are you aware of the prophecy of Simon Kimbangu on Patrice Lumumba and the DR Congo?

Nope but a dumb question as yours is definitely mischievous but then mischief is hard-wired into your DNA. In your neck of the wood, where morals is an alien concept, mischief is socially misconstrued with "smartness". Hell will freezes first before a northerner will "willingly" follow an igbo man to murder the sardunna or other northern leaders. Not then, not now and not ever!!!

As for your proof, of course, i read the screen shot you posted from Max siollun, I was just disappointed. I was expecting something like an interview with a northern soldier who unambiguously confirmed that he "willing " followed Nzeogwu to kill the sardunna for one of the reasons, you threw in the air, earlier on in your dumb question.
All you have as your proof is a quote from a psychopath and shameless liar to boot! Below is an except from the Special Branch Police report:





After reading the above text, can you still opine (in all consciences, if you posses any), that those soldiers followed Nzeogwu, "willingly" or .......................

Show us anywhere in the special branch report where Nzeogwu was armed while in transit (in a Land Rover vehicle) from the mobilisation point to Ahmadu Bello’s residence.

Anyways I’m not shocked at your abysmal level of understanding. You claimed my questions were assertions and now you’ve misunderstood this screenshot.

Bravo 👏

Entertain me with another ill thought outburst 🤡

The bolded clearly shows you know next to nothing on how influential and widely respected Kaduna Nzeogwu was. I can’t just help but laugh at you.

Nzeogwu spoke Hausa more fluently than Igbo.
Born and bred in the north.
Dressed like a northerner, and was loved by the northerners.

Even after he lost his life in the early stages of the Biafra war, Gowon and the Nigerian government buried him with full honours.

But if you think I’m lying, do your research on Nzeogwu and prove me otherwise.

We are awaiting your proofs, rather than sentiments.

T9ksy:
In the post, posted by you below, you asked the question suggesting that the non-ibos soldiers willingly followed Nzeogwu to kill their fellow northerners. What proof do you have that, they were "willing" participants in the operation that saw to the death of ahmodu bello? If you can't come up with any verifiable proof, then your question is both dumb and mischief-laden with only one objective in mind and that's, to confuse the public.

Then you went further to suggest that, maybe these non-igbo soldiers were disenchanted with Bello, not Zik even though, they were in the same ruling govt. Or because they so respect Nzeogwu that they were willing to follow him to muder their own leaders. Or maybe, it's a combination of both. What made you inferred such? Did any northerner complain to you that they were unhappy with Bello's govt or that they believe, he is corrupt? Why then would you come up with such a stupid suggestion unless of course, you just want to disseminate more lies to buttress your D.O.A narrative that the Jan coup was not a juvenille plot by the igbos to grab power at the center.

Someone, once accused you of deliberately trying to mislead the forumites and you played, dumb. You definitely know what you are doing. Anyway, no amount of obfuscation by you and your irk can taint the truth.




The million dollar questions are: why were these soldiers who were mostly non-Igbos willing to follow Nzeogwu to eliminate their fellow northerner, rather than shoot down Nzeogwu for treason?

Were they disenchanted with Bello and the corruption of the politicians in the first republic? OR did they hold Nzeogwu in high regard and viewed him as revolutionary? Or a combination of both?
Where you come from, is a question an expression of opinion? 🤷

And for the proof that soldiers willingly followed Nzeogwu - did you read through the screenshot I uploaded from Max Siollun’s work in previous post? 🤷

Let me guess, you pretended not to see it.

In that case, the Special branch Police (investigative) report must be wrong, then. Would the police have included this information in their report, if they know it was false? Why would they do that?
Not necessarily, until there’s corroborative evidence/first hand accounts of Ifeajuna visiting the Eastern Premier in Enugu on the same day after he was at the Lagos coup, then it’s a one sided stand alone account.

Moreover, Max Siollun mentioned the special branch report is extremely detailed, but contained errors “in some places.”

Doesn’t mean I have discredited the report altogether, as it contains truth which can be corroborated with other sources/first hand accounts.

You started your leading question with the words, "why were they WILLING" to follow Nzegwu.....?" when we all know that they did not knowingly followed Nzeogwu to kill the sardunna unless you can prove that these non-ibos that you suggested, followed (Nzeogwu) did so, knowing beforehand that, they were enroute to murder the sardunna.
So you can’t tell us anywhere I categorically stated the northerners were unhappy with the Balewa/Azikwe govt enough to want the sardauna dead?

And you mistook my questions for a conclusion? 🤷

What a dumb question? The northerners were "maybe" , not happy with Bello and the sardunna's govt that they decided to follow an igbo man to have him killed! You however, micheviously forgot to mention that, one of the soldiers, a non-ibo who "followed" nzeogwu but however hesitated to follow Nzeogue's order was immediately, shot dead by him, even we were supposed to belive, Nzeogwu was unarmed.

You discredited the notion that after ifeajunna and okafor had murdered the PM and dumped his body by the roadside enroute to abeokuta, they headed for enugu where they met up with Okpara- the premier of eastern region, who was purportedly on house arrest ..............
And if you were following that thread without selective memory/reasoning, you would notice I established my position by corroborating with different historians. Max Siollun (Inside story of Nigeria), Wale Ademoyega (why we struck), Segun Johnson (In selected Nigerian problems).

If you can corroborate the bolded part I pointed out on the thread with other history reports/first hand accounts, then let’s have it.

For example, who saw Ifeajuna and the Eastern Premier together in Enugu after the coup in Lagos earlier that day? Was it the soldier that kept the eastern premier under house arrest? Did that soldier grant any interview you can provide us with? Basic logic and common sense approach before taking a position.

Well, unless you’re telling us you can hastily conclude by hearing just one part of the story 🤷

Besides it’s common sense.

By the way, how does this approach automatically translate to me discrediting the special branch report? 🤷
