Seunomobo:Like I told you, na your mama go bury you last last. No be you go bury your mama. |
Loveenthed:I was not expecting anything from Jonathan because he was an accidental president. A gentle man but not neither street smart or strong. But you see Buhari, I had to apologize to my mother for disagreeing vehemently with her. She kept saying Buhari is mentally dull and had nothing to offer... because she knows him well from her time at a military hospital. She said out of all the high ranking military officers she used to treat then in the mid 70's. Buhari was the odd one out. That it was Tunde Idiagbon that was the potent force in his government and we should expect nothing from a Buhari government. Since then I no dey use full body follow any politician again |
JobAndVacancies:It's normal. The future you envisaged with him and all those promises you made to him in your heart that can no longer be fulfilled can lead you to loose your bearing and lack any motivation to do anything. You will have to speak to your soul a lot and encourage your self and not fall into destructive patterns and habits. Life will never be the same. Accept that reality...and start pushing yourself forward. 20 years after, I still have to encourage myself everyday. There are things only he could have humanly understood and cared enough to give me solid advise on if I explained to him because he had divine insight into human character and behavior and pragmatic solutions to complex issues. |
EmperorCaesar:Dumb enough to be a billionaire and chairman of a bank and become a governor of a state in a country like Nigeria. And honest and dumb enough not to have one single case with EFCC. I dey very sure sey na one of those low budget android phones you dey take type this your wisdom. One day hopefully you go wake up |
Option23:It's all an act. Na wetin dem wan chop dem dey find. Remove money matter, dem bo send the guy. It can be nauseating to experience ..person wey senior you go dey call you sir, no be sey him like you ooo. The same person will talk harshly and shabby to another person within a second. Na when you use Nigerian number call,and they don't recognize your voice at first, na him you go see say Nigerians are double faced. |
I have come to visualize alcohol as slow poison. That is what it actually is. |
Seunomobo:Na your mama go bury you last last. She will rectify the mistake she made by not terminating you when you father raped her. |
Seunomobo:! No be your fault, if to say your mama din do the needful that year, you for no dey here dey insult your papa. |
Seunomobo:If you don't vomit for ground finish, make you pack am. Were asaba!!! |
geoworldedu:Saying God is invented by men and saying that he exists independently of men are two different things. He may make sense to you because you and him have never had any experience of God. Your type are the " my pastor says" kind of church goers. What i did not know before now is that so many of you go to church knowing fully well that you believe that God is a fairy tale, a figment of men's imagination and have other motives for coming to church. This mindset explains why there is so much religious activities in Nigeria that does not translate to righteous actions.So much wickedness in the land. I have had this suspicions for long but could not bring myself to accept that people actually go to church and sing and dance and pray to something that they actually believe does not exist. How pathetic !!! |
femi4:Gbaam. Daniel and Mordecai were learned. And the had the spirit of excellence. They pursued excellence and it opened doors for them. You rise in life by acquiring relevant marketing place skills. I have developed myself to the point that I don't apply for jobs anymore. I update my resume and recruiters begin to contact me. I learnt this from my friend a Chemical Engineer who was offered $ 20,000 to leave his current job and come to Raytheon. This guy had all the top certifications and degrees in that field. It is sacrilegious for me to imagine that I am going to church on Sunday not to worship God, but to make human connections and network. If my friendship or association with you is based on what you have to offer me, then you are not my friend. I am merely using you. Nuff said. |
Love800:I read my Bible and this is what it tells me Psalm 146:3-7 3 Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save. 4 When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing. 5 Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord their God. 6 He is the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them— he remains faithful forever. 7 He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. |
Love800:I am not surprised though...this is giving me a confirmation of the Pentecostal fellowshipping mindset. That is where you guys learn to kiss asses and will be calling your pastors wey you senior " Daddy". Funny people. You worship God with your mouths but your hearts are far from him. The bible you said I should read clearly says in Jeremiah 17:5 " Thus saith the Lord: “Cursed be the man that trusteth in man and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord." I am a Celestian. I do not go to church for connections and socializing.We have an order of service that from the beginning to the end is focused on worshipping God. It is sacrilegious for me to say I am going to Church to get human connections. It goes against every thing we are taught. Yes !!! we do make friends and support each other as brethren in Christ. But we are taught not to rely on anyone. We even " mercy " collection that we donate to strictly for helping strangers every sunday. But till the day I die I will never relate to any human being based on what the person has to offer me. It is the height of freedom and brings a peace that surpasses all understanding. Every achievement I have had in this life, the God I serve has raised up total strangers to help me without even bothering to take credit. God uses human vessels to help. I play my part by adding so much value to myself that ANY business will want me on their team...unless you no see my resume and I no open my mouth. My help comes from the Lord. Shalom. |
Maxymilliano:As you see me soo, If I get any issue with police which rarely happens, I will do all in my power to settle the matter on the spot and not go to police station. Once you get there, the matter can take any dimension fast fast. In fact once my friend join police, na the end of the friendship be that.. some of those guys can change the entire course of your destiny if God does not love you. |
Goodlyhrt:Yes ooo, it is God that caused backwardness for Africa... it is not your government officials and civil servants stealing funds meant for development of infrastructure and social amenities. It is not your citizens that are tribalistic and selfish and don't mind stealing from their bosses at work and destroying everything else as long as they and their family are good. I been think sey you get sense before but your words have revealed that nothing dey inside your head. |
Goodlyhrt:You don't know what you are saying. From time immemorial God is not a man. Saying men are God and God is man I'd foolishness and all your time in church wad a waste. If you read the Bible well, God raises men to do his bidding. You are rejecting God because you asked for healing and you were not healed. Guess what, same thing happened to Paul...yet he did not reject God. Job lost everything but did not renounce God. I myself gave lost a good lot and have family members whose medical condition are irreversible in spite of all the money I have to spend on it...yet I will not deny God and say he is a mere man. Being a Christian dies not mean you should be socially awkward or inept. That is on you and coming out of your shell now has nothing to do with God. Im fact your insecurities are still there and even if you are in the midst of a hundred friends you will still be alone until you learn to love yourself. The bible is filled with examples of God stirring the heart of men to do hood towards others. Mordecai and the King who had sleepless nights, Ananais who was told yo go heal Paul's eyes, the official in Pharaohs court who remembered Joseph. So what are you on about? What are you saying that you ate not even thinking at all but just throwing clichés that are from dumb minds. I leave you to you. I got better things to do. |
Goodlyhrt:The man that was born by a woman as a result if sexual intercourse between a man and another woman is the one who is in the skies. Who told you that God lives in the skies. I've flown thousand of miles across four continents many of those flights were above the clouds...I'm was never expecting to run across God in the skies. Especially when I know that earth is just one tiny fraction of the multi universes. I think your idea of God is shallow and ypu were closed .inded from the beginning that is why you found it hard to make friends in the beginning. The bible encourages us to relate with others and while sticking to principles and tenets that glorify his name. Well sha you be deeper life you grow up. So I no blame you. Even the streets k ow well not to put all your trust in friends...you don't need bible to tell you that one. |
Goodlyhrt:"God is man " . "Man is God " ." God is in your head" This one carry "ment" for head. You will be alright las las. |
I understand what you are saying....nevertheless I will tell you the only ground worth standing on is God. All other grounds is sinking sand. Nigeria is not working because we have endemic corruption from top to bottom. Europe and America works for business because of access to credit. As long as your credit score is good, you will have banks and other financial institutions to lend you money. If your worship of God is based solely on what you can get from him then you have not started. Paul was not healed of his deformity, yet he loved God. Moses, David, Joseph ,Stephen even Jesus Christ all faced debilitating trials, yet they did not abandon God. The key to being relevant in this world is to add value to yourself continually. Make money , save for rainy days and plan for your children's future and enjoy yourself with your family. But placing your trust in fellow human beings will bring you more misery long term wether in church or socially. I have friends everywhere but still keep my circle very very very small. |
Christ4ever:Timing. The US election is over. The current administration is about to end and will be less bothered about it's image. |
kayperry:You see that changing of circle is the " wickedness" that Adekunle is referring to. His nature as a giver and kind person will not change, he is going to learn to adjust so that they don't render him useless. Takers never stop taking. Na you go protect you treasures from parasites so that you sef no go die. |
komzy589:Kindness usually involves giving something wether tangible or intangible and getting nothing in exchange. Kindness is giving of yourself. Your time, your precense, your resources, your money, even putting in a good word for someone somewhere is all kindness. |
easytig:I tell you. They will make you regret the day you ever started assisting them in the first place. |
SiIk:If I did not read the entire argument, I would have thought he was wicked and selfish. What he said makes plenty of sense and is the truth. Saying it publicly may not sound right at first, but definitely has an advantage. The open wounds you see and acknowledge is the one you can quickly treat. Internal bleeding is hard to know and treat, until he go kill you finish. |
We live in a time where kindness is taken as weakness and is prone to be exploited util you are financially, physically and emotionally drained. I have come to the realization that learning to say "No" even if you can help is ultra important in this modern life...sadly that is what to naturally kind people feel as if it is wickedness. The disadvantage of being kind all the time is that you unconsciously teach people to remember you only when they want something...and once they unconsciously label you as the solution provider..they will never turn up for you when you are in need even if they have the means...especially humans hate to remember who helped the because they want to be able to boast that they made it all their own efforts and nobody helped them. Na ten lepers Jesus heal, na only one come back come thank Jesus. The day a blind man can see..he will throw away his walking stick. Same with the crippled man on crutches. This December I just dey ignore all the different requests wey I dey get...and it will be like that for a very long time....after we wish ourselves merry Christmas and happy new year, I dey change my number and hibernate all social media accounts. It's time to focus on me and me alone. Takers never stop taking...and problem no dey finish. |
Zonefree:Their almighty froggie was kneeling begging and crying for hoe for whatever reason. |
smartemperor042:You no add sports...especially football |
ARISHEM:3rd is not a "great" achievement when others have won it. And the dream team won it in a way thar was magical in 96. Came from behind to beat Brazil ( 3 goals down ) and then beat Argentina in the final. And Kanu scored some very beautiful goals in that competition. Even remembering it now fills me with pride. |
Even in Saudi Arabia the capital of Islam, dem no dey carry maalu Waka for street. Government of each southern state ought to invest heavily with willing private companies in cattle ranching...with training and partnership with foreign farmers. If I dey produce wetin you want sell give me, your business go die naturally |
You never know Africans and their hypocrisy. Anyways it's hard to leave behind what you were raised on. That is why I no dey worship any body. Na myself I know. The thing that I have seen and heard ...my mouth no fit talk am. |
Best of luck. |
CyrusVI:There was a station on ikeja then that had a reputation for for extra judicial killing in the late 90's . Once them carry you for raiding and you no get family to come bail you on time, na to do send forth for you be that. |
