I have similar issue and any message to them was a waste of time and resources. It yields nothing! |
Good attempt, however, the data is not absolutely correct. From Abuja to: Ilorin 482km Ado-Ekiti 480km Osogbo 428km Akure 420km Osogbo to Akure distance by time is around or slightly more than two hours which means at 60km/hour, it's greater appropriately 120km. But from your table, it's just 8km apart! Let me leave the rest for other analysts to check. |
Curiosity, unbelieving! When it happens, you will know. My advice; "never cast off your faith in God and placing it on things or man for you to fully benefit from the Giver of live and its sustenance." The update will be shared when the roll call is done, stop being overly curious. |
Globeaut:You were the one giving hope months ago, don't loose hope yet! Serious works going on, anyway. |
GTB is becoming or has become something else, you can imagine N9,043 was moved from my account as a web payment (a transaction I have never made) since last week Thursday and up till now though they promised to get back to me on or before today,I have not heard from them. This is not the first time nor the second time. |
Hermerc:Very very soon, we will all see it. Keep hope alive for it's nearer than you think and than before. |
Praise God, there is hope even in hopelessness. Very soon, by His grace, there is going to be a green light. Take it, leave it: I was once a doubting Thomas but now am believing. |
naijanaso:Exactly! |
Since they don't have 'capacity', it's better that way... |
I have involved in some network businesses, all these bitcoin like MMM and the rest. When it's obvious that they have gone with your money, we do have some people in the group that would be giving you false hope that all is well, that they are only having problems with Internet and bla bla. The same job I believe Globeaut and more of recent, the newly recruited Richard870 are doing! Well done. Very soon I will exit this group. |
This reality is not comforting! |
Thanks for this write up. However, all remedies are not for all. My wife snores and she is not fat nor taste alcohol all her life nor a smoker, she takes water normal but even, if she sleeps on her either sides, she will still snore. Please, is there no natural medicine she can take for relief? Anyone with natural local herbs for stopping snoring kindly share. Thanks |
Before you will be commending this, ask yourself: Is it free? If not, how cheap? How available and easy to convert? And what of the safety? And they will tell you, you can spread the cost over a period! Can an average vehicle owner and a salary earner afford even the spreading, the installments payment? (Based on even the deceit called approved minimum wage which many states are yet to even implement, assuming there's no other responsibilities than vehicle maintenance). This government has just successfully removed cars from Nigerians' feet and taken many necessities to luxury items list. |
buharibanjo:What they called affordable is far out of reach of average Nigerians. I wonder what these people think when they are fixing prices of commodities and services as if they are unaware of the earning power of the people. The government that failed to give living wages to its citizens and increasing everything at will without human face, you are definitely expecting people to be stealing because I don't know where you are expecting the money to come from. Basic needs has been turned to luxury in Nigeria. |
Afonja44:It is honourable to keep silent than giving unwise comment since you can't read. |
What's going on self in Nigeria? Why is all things screwed up in secrecy? Day after day turning into weeks, weeks turning into Months and months into year yet no information,no update and hope deferred makes heart sick! Oh God of hope, give live to our hope as we wait on you! |
cidieschat Kindly come online and please update us. Don't be offended. |
Any current update? |
What a good move by our so CARING government? We will get it right one day! |
Who cares |

It's just an interesting read! |
slivertongue:That's the only time our leaders have all ears 'cos they don't want to miss their pots of soup! Their mission and motive is primarily selfish! 'I know my brother's behaviour is not an abuse' - it's a Yoruba proverb. |
Do you mean that religion being a scam in your word means that God does not exist! How does creations come into being? A fool says in his heart, there's no God. ghostboy: |
When you close people's sources of income, what relief are you giving them. Covid relief fund was suspended abruptly because some people are not sensitive, embezzling what belongs to all. This country is courting trouble! This is the source of violence, insecurity and other vices. The countries you are coping cat meet their citizens' need before and when restrictions last. Nigeria grow up!!! |

MARRIAGE/FAMILY Very few couples like to accept this, but tension is normal to all marriages. We’ve all had our share of the fight, and some of our disputes haven’t been good. Maybe we could write a book about what we can’t do! Start with two selfish people with different backgrounds and different personalities. Now add some bad habits and odd idiosyncrasies, throw in a bunch of standards, and then turn the heat up a little with the daily life trials. Guess what, huh? You’re expected to have a fight. This is inevitable. your-marriage-better Since each marriage has its own problems, it is not a question of preventing them, but of how you cope with them. Conflict may lead to a cycle that creates cohesion or isolation. You and your spouse are supposed to choose how you will act when conflict does happen. Table of Contents: 1. Marriage requires knowing, accepting, and adjusting to your differences 2. It requires defeating selfishness 3. It requires pursuing the other person 4. Marriage requires loving confrontation 5. Listen to your spouse. Seek to understand his or her view, and ask questions to clarify viewpoints 6. It requires forgiveness 7. It requires returning a blessing for an insult. Marriage requires knowing, accepting, and adjusting to your differences One reason we have a marital dispute is that we attract opposites. Typically, a task-oriented person marries someone who is more human-oriented. People who move through life at breakneck speed seem to end up with more slow-paced partners. It’s strange, but that’s part of the reason why you were married to who you were. Your spouse has brought a range, spice, and difference to your life that you haven’t had before. But after being married for a while (sometimes a short time), the pleasures become repellent. You may disagree over minor irritations, such as how to properly squeeze a toothpaste tube, or big philosophic discrepancies in the handling of finances, or how to raise children. You may find that your experiences and your personalities are so different that you wonder how and why God put you together in the first place. It is important to understand these differences, and then to embrace and adapt to them. God has given you a partner who completes you in ways you haven’t known yet. It requires defeating selfishness All our differences are magnified in marriage as they feed what is undeniably the greatest source of our conflict–our selfish, sinful existence. Maintaining peace in marriage has been a difficult task since Adam and Eve. A couple, beginning their marriage together and seeking to go their own selfish, separate ways, can never expect to experience the unity of marriage as God intended. Love offers a great opportunity to do something about selfishness. We must be able to be last instead of trying to be first. We must serve instead of having to be served. Instead of trying to save our lives, we have to risk them. We have to love our neighbors (our spouses) as much as we love ourselves. In short, if we want to fight selfishness, we have to give up, give in, and sacrifice everything. The modesty of mind finds one another more important than yourself; do not just look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. It requires pursuing the other person To live peacefully means to seek peace. It means taking the initiative to settle a complicated conflict rather than waiting for the other party to take the first step. Resolving a dispute means putting aside your own pain, rage, and resentment. It doesn’t mean to lose heart. Always “keep your relationship up to date.” In other words, make sure that you stay in strong fellowship with your spouse every day, as well as with your children, parents, colleagues and friends. Marriage requires loving confrontation He who has a good friend doesn’t need a mirror… Blessed is a marriage where both partners know that the other is a good friend who will listen, understand and work through any kind of problem or dispute. Confronting your partner with grace and modesty requires wisdom, maturity and humility. Here are a few other tips that we found useful: test your motivation. Will your words help or hurt you? Will bringing this up, cause healing, completeness, and harmony, or further isolation? Please check your attitude. Love conflict says, “I care for you. I love you, and I would like you to support me. I want to know how you feel. “Don’t climb on your bulldozer and run down your partner. Approach your partner kindly. Find out the circumstances. It involves pacing, position and setup. Don’t threaten your husband, for example, when he’s tired of a hard day’s work, or when he’s in the middle of squabbling between children. Remember, don’t ever attack, make fun of, or disagree with your partner in public. Check to see what other stresses might be present. Be open to where your spouse comes from. What is the background of your spouse’s life right now? Listen to your spouse. Seek to understand his or her view, and ask questions to clarify viewpoints Be sure you’re ready to accept what you want to dish out. You could start giving your spouse some “friendly advice” and soon learn that what you’re saying isn’t really his problem, but yours! Stick to one issue at a time during the debate. Don’t pick a few up. Don’t save a number of complaints and let your partner have them all at once. Focus on the problem, not the individual. You need a budget, for example, and your partner is a little bit of a spendthrift. Work through financial plans and make the lack of budget the enemy, not your spouse. your-marriage-better Focus on actions rather than on character. This is again the “you” message versus the “I” message. You can murder the character of your partner and stab him right to the heart with “you” messages like, “You’re always late; you don’t care about me at all; you don’t care about anyone but yourself.” The “I” message will mean, “I feel frustrated when you don’t let me know you’re going to be late. I would appreciate it if you were to call so that we can make other arrangements. FOMAF @fomafng "A wise woman knows the importance of speaking life into her man. If you love him: believe in him, encourage him and be his peace."- Denzel Washington. #fomaf #TuesdayMotivation #TuesdayThoughts Twitter Ads info and privacy See FOMAF's other Tweets “Focus on the facts rather than judging the motives. If your partner forgets to make an important decision, deal with the consequences of what you both have to do next rather than say, “You’re so careless; you’re just doing things to irritate me.” Above all, concentrate on knowing your spouse rather than who wins or loses. It requires forgiveness No matter how hard the two people try to love each other and satisfy each other, they will fail. Loss comes to hurt. And the only true cure for hurt is the healing consolation of redemption. The key to maintaining an open, loving, and happy marriage is to ask for forgiveness quickly. man-woman Forgiveness means giving up bitterness and a desire to punish others. You let the other person off the hook by the act of your will. Be kind to each other, tenderly hearted, forgive each other. It requires returning a blessing for an insult In summary, all of you are harmonious, benevolent, fraternal, kind-hearted, and gracious in spirit; not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving blessing instead; for you have been called for the very reason that you might inherit a blessing. Every marriage has either the “Insult for Insult” or the “Blessing for Insult” relationship. Husbands and wives can become extremely competent to trade insults about the way they look, the way they cook, or the way they drive, and the way they clean the house. There seem to be no other way for many couples to respond to each other. FOMAF @fomafng As we go on in the second half of the year, the Lord is telling us to be strong and do great exploits. Just as he commanded Joshua, we must be strong and courageous (Josh 1: . #fomaf #WordOfTheDay #WordsOfWisdom #Bible #BibleStudy Watch full video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQh1JQcfKFE What does it mean to give back a blessing for an insult? One who enjoys life, loves, and wants to see good days, must keep his tongue from bad, and his lips from speaking deception. He must turn away from evil and do good; he must seek peace and follow it. This means doing well, too. Sometimes doing well simply takes a few words spoken gently and kindly, or perhaps a hand, a hug, or a pat on the back. It could mean making a special effort to please your partner by performing a special act of kindness. In the end, being a blessing means seeking peace, genuinely following it. If you sincerely seek forgiveness, you desire peace, not isolation. The aim of God in our conflicts is to test our faith, to produce courage, to refine us, and to bring glory to Him. This is the hope that He gives us that we can truly treat our problems as an opportunity to strengthen our faith and to glorify God.] Subscribe to our YouTube channel for soul-lifting videos You can also follow us on Twitter @fomafng.

It cost only N500 for a policeman to arrest me, and N1,000 for another to hurl me into a cell. Of course they didn’t know I was a journalist; I had assumed a pseudonym and grown my hair long enough — for 10 months — to blend with artificial dreads. My locks were tinted in gold and almost all my facial hair removed. I cut the profile of the kind of youth the Police indiscriminately railroad into their notoriously ramshackle vans for no reason, for onward transfer to their cells. One look at me and the typical policeman would have mistaken me for a compulsive hemp smoker, an incorrigible internet fraudster or a serial drug abuser. https://www.thecable.ng/undercover-investigation-i-bribery-bail-for-sale-lagos-police-station-where-innocent-civilians-are-jailed-and-criminals-are-recycled/amp?__twitter_impression=true |
Is this not an international conspiracy? A follow up to the garbage released recently by the local based league. These people are highly organized. The Economist and the PDP hate Buhari so much but love his aide (of questionable character) so much. No wonder shall never end. |
Fellow Africans, �I address you today as the globe is shaking, the kings and rulers of the earth have now known that they are but mere men. �A mere virus have emptied the streets of proud cities. National and international Airlines have been grounded, schools closed, entertainment events closed, even friendly hand shakes are now avoided to elbow shakes. �Have you paused and wondered what is really happening. Why is there so much global panic now. �The thing is, GOD is trying to get the attention of the world. It looks like a final warning from the office of the CEO of the UNIVERSE. �It is a signal that a very big event is about to take place in the globe. �God never does anything without first giving out warnings to alert humanity. �JESUS CHRIST is COMING SOON from the SKIES and all GLOBAL TV networks will carry it live with commentaries of the event. Revelation 1:7 Matthew 24:29-31 �The world will be divided into three groups of people. *Those who made the rapture and left the earth to be with Jesus Christ in the sky. *Those who are carnal believers that did not make the rapture because they were not prepared for it. *Those who never believed in Jesus Christ before the rapture and they cannot be saved again because the Holy Spirit will not be there to convict them of sin to repent and be saved. �Now, come to think of it, Just a mere Virus and the whole Earth is on Panic mode. �Just a Virus and Businesses are shutting down and streets of cities like London are empty. �Just a Virus and Citizens of nations cannot Move around the way they wish to and all flights from Europe to America are shut down. �Just a Virus, and the nations we look to as developed nations are being Threatened without bombs. �Just a Virus, Educational institutions are closed and entertainment centers are closed. �Just a Virus and Religious sites are closed and Churches are announcing no services till further notice. �Just a Virus, and the world market is collapsing and nations are entering into recession with speed. �If an Ordinary Virus could do all these, Imagine what will Be on this Earth, the day King Jesus Christ will return in the sky. �Take note, when Jesus Christ appears in the sky, all cars, trucks, air planes, trains and ships driven by prepared saints will have the drivers and pilots ejected by the power of Jesus Christ in the rapture into the sky. And that will cause the greatest Crashes of air, road, rail and sea ever. It is a day of gloom and doom. �My GOD! Give Us Understanding to know what is about to Happen to those who will not be raptured on that day. �Corona is a warning alert from heaven to the whole world saying that something of heavy global magnitude is about to happen. �Sir/Ma, brothers/sisters, Make use of this moment by Repenting from Sin and Accepting JESUS CHRIST as Lord and Savior before it is too late. 2nd Corinthians 6:1-2 The Door of Mercy is About to Be Closed finally. It is a fearful thing to think that a man will be lost forever into eternity in a burning hell with brimstone and Sulphur when he or she could have just stopped to pray now and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. If you have read this and you are not sure if you are born again, then I urge you to pray now like this: �Dear heavenly father, I come to you as a sinner and I am very sorry for all my sins. I believe today that Jesus Christ died for my sins and I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and I belive in my heart that God raised Him from the dead. Write my name in the book of life and cancel name from the book of death. I confess I am saved. Amen."� Please do it now and be saved. ❤️Please SHARE urgently and save a soul from hell and free your hand from their blood. |
