Once he or she enters secondary school only small phone (without internet), reason for this is for security reason, so that you can keep track of your ward.

With internet once he or she finished secondary school...

That was well said. Exactly my thought.

AdiokOnoNland:
Have been curious to ask this question for a long now but thanks for today have finally asked it.

So please I want to know at what age should a child be allowed to have a mobile phone with internet?

18yrs, when he or she is done writing WAEC. Mean while from 10-17 he will have a phone for easy communication and a general desktop in the house to do his assignment and to familiarized himself with the computer and internet (with restriction on social media and some site that he has no business being in as a minor)

It's pure trash! The story started well but along the line it started becoming unrealistic.

A guy started a church and within a short space of time his church had become mega big and he was rolling in money. How nah? Na so e easy?

Then why will a very successful guy think of relocating to Canada and leaving a very supportive wife behind?

Thr story no gel. Good actors though. Excellent costume. Directing was fair.

I'll give it 5/10

oga ,abeg go back and watch that movie before Ur review. The church was built on a lie with the collaboration from that drug & human trafficking dealer Rekia .. The church was funded by illicit fund and the church is use to launder the money . He was relocating to Canada becos he knows his sins are beginning to unravel, especially the lady he impregnated and died during abortion .
He never loved his wife and wanted to catch in on the sudden wealth from the church to elope with Joy. The movie is not perfect but you didn't understand how the church became so rich within a very short time .

Review

Well, this movie is a proper example of "The trailer fooled ya, didn't it?"

I know we don't have a lot of examples of that in the Nigerian movie industry, where there is a running joke that you can tell what happens from the trailer, so, let me just let you know now, you cannot tell what happens from the trailer. You have to watch it.

The story introduces us to Samuel (Nnani), the son of a firebrand preacher, who is quite handy with a whip. Samuel resents his father so much that the moment he leaves home, he decides never to return, no matter how many letters his heartbroken mother writes to him. Samuel is living it up, performing as 'Abami' (I imagine a Fela character). He's the quintessential bad boy from a good home who has strayed from God, but then he meets good gyal, Joy (Johnson), and he wants to be good for Joy, but then, his rebellious side is not what Christian sister Joy needs in her life, and Pastor BJ (Enwerem) of the Campus church, points that out to her and shows her to her real husband. Bad Boy Samuel spirals, but Tej (Ighodaro) his childhood friend who introduced him to Joy, is there to catch him and be his rebound gyal.

In fact, this story is a whole rollercoaster and you have to hold on tight, or risk being thrown out the cart. A whirlwind of events happen, but the one thing we do establish, is that Samuel is troubled, and you cannot save someone if they do not want to be saved.

Casting was good, although I don't think the script was really challenging enough for any of the actors. There were no emotional highs, no heart-wrenching scenes or anything that would require an actor to dig deep. It was quite pedestrian to be honest.

There were musical performances in this movie, I imagine Nani and Shola-Fapson did sing some of these tracks themselves, but with Nani, I'm not so sure. Aside these songs, the music wasn't really catchy.

I think the concept of the story was quite good, but the sequence of events were a bit hasty. It felt like being presented with a large buffet you had to finish in ten minutes. We didn't get to really savour the story. There were scenes that should have been heavier, but something was just missing, an extra punch to the gut you might say, and I'm unsure if this could be blamed on the scriptwriting or the delivery.

There were so many paths this story had that were poorly explored. We were teased with the possibility of an extra-marital affair between Samuel and Joy, after they reunite, but that is deflated before it can even rise. Rekya's(Fapson) return to Samuel's life is only for the purpose of ruining him, but it all happens in a flash. Why is Samuel so unhappy he is willing to run away from the wife who stood by him despite his scandals? Why did it not occur to him that she could turn on him, even when she promised him that? Why didn't he try to make nice with her? Na so prison dey seduce the guy?

So many multiple choice questions, and we barely got the complete answers. Someone suggested it should have been a series, to allow for a deeper exploration of these intricate relationships, and I can't help but concur. Some of the relationships could have made for some juicy scandals, which is always a good recipe for a series.

This was not a story of someone going astray and finding God, this was a story of someone going astray, finding himself in the church, and then walking further into sin.

A few people have called it a Christian movie, but I wouldn't categorise it as such. Yes, there is a lot of church activity, but there is barely a depiction of Christ-like behaviour. I think the hypocrisy and blatant imperfection that permeates the church is what is most explored here, not quite a relationship with God. We do not really see a reformed individual in Samuel (Nnani) as the story progresses, rather, we see someone who hides his shortcomings in a preacher's cloak.

In fact, if there is one thing that remains consistent in the movie, it is how flawed the people who grace the pulpit really are. From Samuel's abusive father, to the manipulative Pastor BJ, the tithe-seeking, vile, Mummy GO (Anunobi) of a church Samuel serves as music director, to Samuel, who starts his own church, not because he was really called by God, but because "church business is big business". So, if the aim of the story is to show us the hypocrisy of church leaders, then, sure, we could call it a Christian movie in that aspect. But the fact that we never really get to see any of these flawed MoGs experience a character change, is what is quite damning.


Overall, this movie is a decent watch on a lazy day.


Overall Rating: 6/10

The movie is currently streaming on Netflix, what's your take on it?

Nice movie.

If this job is going to be done from the comfort of your home then its a good one.What you need is to look for more like that to add to it.

Hello House,
I was given a task to submit the following Rate Card for some our company's product promotion, latest by tomorrow. I have reached out to some and I have been able to get their rate card but others are a bit difficult since the only means I can reach them is dropping a message on their Instagram handle, which they hardly read.

Please can I have their managers numbers or if possible their advert/Rate Card, if anyone here has it? My oga said I must provide their rate latest today or first thing tomorrow morning for consideration.

Cokahot:
I watched the video,don't blame those bad boys and the one fucking her or whatever it is they were doing . From my observation, it's not new to the 10year old bich. Seems she used to spy her mom or watch blue film. I can bet my balls she was deflowered at an early stage by maybe a pedophile?I'm guessing 2years back. She wasn't shy,she wasn't scared,wasn't under pressure,neither were the styles new to her. Stupid 10yearold bich

Yes! yes! I think so! you must be right. Because, how can such a young girl be that experience sexually!. She must have been molested and engaged in sexual act with a male adult when she was much younger, who must have taught her how to do such things to please him. Jesus!.. God have mercy and save our children from Paedophiles.

FuckDModz:
The boys were molested but you have to worry about the weaker gender. Seems legit.

You guys should stop looking for victim in this matter. From the Video shown so far, they were all participant and nobody was forced into it. They all enjoyed it, including the stupid girl that went up stairs to look for it. She offered these boys free cookies to eat and did you expect them to say no? These are young boys who are still developing and beginning to discover their sexual urge ..Of cos they will go for it? The girl is a randy spoilt child. When I saw another of her instagram video of her dancing seductively ,then I knew it didn't just start.
Girls are suppose to be modest and decent in their relationship with boys, especially at such tender age..This is the period sex education should have been be introduced & discussed by her mother . I remembered having similar lessons from Momsi around this age. Shw would always draws her right ear, warning me that I should be careful with boys and should keep myself till I become sensible enough to know right from wrong. She would always be very vigilant with me when ever my brothers friends would comes around.She would always find one task or the other to give to me just to keep my busy, so that I dont always hang around them.I use to be angry back then but now i know better.
I blame her stupid mother that should have taking off her womb instead of having a child that has started having sexual intercourse at 10yrs.10 fucking years..My God!!.

timota:
The unfortunate Chris land sex scandal is leaving many unanswered questions and one of such question is where are the boys,the girl is the only one whose identity is known but we all know that she could be guilty of everything except being guilty of recording the sex scene,who recorded the sex scene why was it recorded, was the girl drugged, are the boys suspended as well.

These are questions in my mind that begs for answer

The girl was not drugged. She is already a spoilt little girl at 10.I saw another of her instagram video that she posted where she was dancing seductively in her private room. Its really shows how out of touch parents are with their children. What is a 10yrs old doing on instagram.
Parent have over indulge their children to get involve in adult affairs when they are suppose to be reading their books and doing things children do. Shame on the Mother and father for neglecting this child.

VictorUSA:
The reason why I hate women is the rate at which I see married women flirting with me.Could you believe that imam wife was just casting seductive looks at me? She does things I don't understand, saying somethings that tells me clearly that she's interested in me.Imam's wife.Women are all useless regardless of their origin.

If all women are useless and group as bunches of non entities due to your experiences in life ,then how are you so sure that you are the son of your father ?. I think you should ask your mother if her former Lanlord or your father's best friend could be your father. Since all women are useless and slots before Ur eyes. You could just be the son of Ur fathers driver (if he once had one ) or the son of a technicians that came over to fix one or two things at Ur house .. Never say never. You could probably be a product of an affair, becos all women are slots.
So , remember that when throwing stones in the market place, Ur own relative might just happened to be hit by that same stone .

ArewaNorth:
This man has said the truth. Yes, bandits are Fulani but Fulani are the first victims of banditry in Nigeria, they have nobody to report the decade long cattle rustling by bandits, they often sell cows to pay ransom. The banditry is reported now because it has escalated to areas that have the power of social media but it would have been a perpetual silence suffering.
You need to educate yourself about things that u don't know before commenting. Boko Haram are 99.9% Kanuri from mostly Borno and some parts of Yobe states wherever u see them, while bandits are purely Fulani. Historically, bandits and Fulani can't and will never work together in such heinous acts. Ignorant people like u won't understand this but this is the fact!

So who are the people that go about with Thier cows, raping , maiming and killing innocent farmers along thier part ? From the middle belt down to the south . Are they thesame kanuri ?

The funny part is that my oga gave me an assignment to provide the advert rates of 32 influencers that were selected . I have reached out to them on Instagram and even sent reminders , but only two influencers sent Thiers . I have till Wednesday after the Easter holiday to submit their advert rates. Sometimes I wonder if they are so rich that they dont care to read thier emails or Instagram messages for promotion deals .
I don't know how to reach them aside from thier Instagram . I tried through Twitter but so many of them don't have the private message icon on their Twitter handle.such is life .

Realhommie:
Stop talking nonsense. As it is now the state is in bondage under the leadership of PDP. All they know how to do is to steal and share money.

You are still getting emotional over for this APC /PDP party matter? Don't waste your time oo! They are the same oo! except you are one of the thieves in politics. Then you carry on and break your head over their matter.
But Delta state will never have that devilish and Fulani sympathizer party .Other parties are welcome to wrestle power from Ibori the thief, who is the God father of Pdp In that state .

DitariDisciple2:
I am not interested in Nigeria's election but Ijaw Republic own but if ever I vote in the Presidential election it will be for Tinubu and I will tell my followers to do same.
All because of how Tinubu did Lagos when he was Governor then.
And i was there.

Lagos was trash when Tinubu was Gov.Sanity was restored when Fashola came on board.

Why not support/sponsor a youth now, you want to rule first before doing the right thing.
This people keep telling lies and the annoying part is those that sat and listen without staging a walk out.

These old men takes Nigerian for fools

Exactly. He thinks we are all fools that he will sweet talk and expect us to all fall In line to vote him. All these ancestors should go and rest and support young and more viable people into power .

Firstcitizen:
All the comments above does not change the fact that Nigerian girls are useless with nothing to offer than pvssie

You forgot to include your mother that gave you life as well as your sisters and cousin that are other men's bitches..Hope you know that as you are messing around with other peoples daughters and sisters, someone else where, is messing around with yours sisters. And eventually, they will with you daughter, when you finally breeds one. Talk wisely oga and stop smocking weed that makes you type rubbish without thinking it through.

Jennyclay:
Keep shut!!! Are the white girls any better??

The white girls will kill all you wannabe redpillers, just don't worry, it will soon get to your turn!!

Atleast she went ahead to drink beer after killing the guy... This time around she might Twerk on your casket.

Nonsense!!!

Dont mind that than man. The bad thing about these white women is that, they often take life insurance on their husband /partners head, they will either poison them or pretend to accidentally murder them in self defense. Only to now use the money from that proceed to get a young handsome man that can service them very well and start living large on the blood of the black stupid man who thought that his own race is inferior. So, in all this, these black men that entrust thier lives in the hand of these white woman will end up losing from out as they will end up in the grave with nothing to show for for their choices in life .Lesson 101..the grass is not always green as you think it is..

Guys , which good HMO (Excluding Axa-Mansard) has Redington as part of their hospitals?. One with a relatively fair premium?

Rubbiish:
How come u are the only one with a positive review on this hygeia? So many negative reviews about them on this thread!

Hygeia is terrible. Please stay away from them. Dont mind some agent here that are Hygia staff. Off cos they will always paint it as a good HMO when its really bad.

akezn:
AXA Mansard is good. They have a very wide coverage. We were using them before in my place of work, but the management decided to switch to Greenbay for reasons I can't really say. Greenbay is not doing badly though.

The irony of it all is that they deduct from my salary every month for it, but I hardly fall sick to visit a hospital.

Your money is what is then use for those that fall sick. That is insurance for you. If everybody decide to access care then the insurance cannot be able to pay for the services anymore.

fasho01:
We truly deserve the leaders we get honestly..

why? Becos they did not mention your Tinubu?

Ambode4g:
I am the HMO OFFICER in my hospital and i can tell you that the best HMO you can ever partner with is AXA MANSARD. You dont have to wait too long in the hospital with the quest of getting approvals for treatments. They are so widely accepted by many Hospitals and i think they do ROAMING PLAN too I.E YOU CAN USE THEM IN ANY HOSPITAL THAT HAS CONTRACT WITH AXA MANSARD. Concerning the cost though, it varies depending on the plan youre on. a person with a chronic illness might decide to opt for a bigger plan than someone who just want insurance for insurance sake. DONT EVER EVER EVER CHOOSE HYGEIA AS AN HMO. You will regret last last ni. Because the hospital will disrespect you and even Hygeia will let you down.

Top 3 HMOs according to my knowledge are
1. axa mansard
2. venus medicare
3. liberty blue

Is Liberty blue the same as Total Health(THT)?. I heard they were acquired by Total Health

Teerach:
How Nigerians have lost their sympathy amazes me. I'm not a fan. But at least pretend to care. I'll rather you are mute than laugh the way people in the first page do. Really, he who lives in Glass House should not throw stones.
I'll rather you pray than laugh cos whatever you do comes back.
RIP to the dead.

care for Fulanis ? Especially thier terrorist organisation that call themselves Miyetti Allah or whatever it is called .
Do u know how these people supported the atrocities committed by thier foot soldiers ? They find nothing wrong in thier various atrocities across the various region ?
Death shall be thier companion, as long as they continue to kill innocent people just for thier animals to live. They shall know no peace.

McTobe:
I can only imagine how sad the fulanis feel right now in Nigeria. They are blamed for all the violence. How then can you explain this. We are firstly human before tribes and nationality.#AgainstTribalism

They are being blamed or they are responsible for most of the violence in the middle belt and southern region! . May peace elude them and may tears,sorrow & blood be thier companion for the rest of their lives .

Bashir75:
MY EALIER COMMENTS; NO, YOU CAN HAVE YOUR FEDERATING EASTERN REGION AND COUNTRY. COUNT US OUT.

NOW: THIS IS WHY LIVING WITH YOUR VAGABOND MENTALITY DOESN'T SIT WITH MOST YORUBAS. WHO’S IS TALKING IGBOS AND NIGER-DELTA? I SIMPLY SAID WE AS YORUBAS, WILL BE BETTER TOGETHER AS A RACE THAN THOSE WHO PRETENDS IN THE DAY TO LOVE US BUT STABBED US AT NIGHT. WE DON’T WANT TO LIVE WITH REGION WHO MOCKS OUR WAY OF LIFE AND CULTURE. WE DON’T EVEN NEED FULANI-HAUSA IF THE COUNTRY SEPARATED. WHAT IS THE OFFENSE IN DECIDING TO UNITE OUR YORUBA PEOPLE AS A RACE WITH COMMON FUTURE WITHOUT MORTGAGING OUR CULTURE. THE YORUBAS ARE THE SECOND LARGEST RACE IN THE WHOLE OF AFRICA AFTER THE FULANI-HAUSA. WHY CAN’T OVER 50-MILLION PEOPLE FORM A NATION?

WHY ARE YOU FRUSTRATED WITH OUR ASPIRATION?

THEN, GO AND LOOK FOR ODUDUWA REPUBLIC THREAD TO SPREAD YOUR WINGS . THIS THREAD IS FOR ADVOCATE FOR SOUTHERNER ONLY.. SOUTHERNERS DOES NOT MEAN ONLY SOUTH WEST . SEY U CAN READ? GOOD!!. ITS SAYS SOUTHERN NIGERIA AND NOT ODUDUWA REPUBLIC

MaxInDHouse:
"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn "’a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law — a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’ "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me" Matthew 10:34-38

Surely the man whose comments were recorded in the Bible verses above must be the foundation of such EVIL! Matthew 10:25

hmmm!! "Whatever God has joined together let no man put asunder"..Does that ring a bell ? Evil religion.

mii4u:
Kemi u are a bloody liar, any woman dat is passing tru domestic violence and is so scared of her hubby can never stay under the same roof with her hubby and be having a secret affair, anyday she develops that guts to cheat is the same day she will walk out of the marriage to leave her life except the marriage is not as toxic as presented. Do ur findings.

That was well said .

kamtamark:
They don't go to the hospital. They don't celebrate Christmas.. They married only members of their church, they dont do blood transfusion..

And they break homes base on thier religion. Any religion that will justify the breaking of homes is evil .

Jehovah's witness marriages don't collapse easily, ask around if you don't know.

Because they frown against divorce. as members could be excommunicated base on that
