It's because he is in every one's face. Since the FG has encouraged him to shove his cement down everyone's throat, the onus is on his company to make it affordable to all at reasonable price. Both Lafarge and BUA won't sell #3,000 when Dangote Cement is selling at #1500 for Instance. It's common sense! |
optionalY09:You hit the nail on the head. |

Coming off the back of his brace against Levante as well as a star performance in the Europa League, Samule Chukwueze extended his recent scoring exploits against the Catalan giants, FC Barcelona. Samuel Chukwueze has now scored 4 goals in 4 matches for the Yellow Submarines. The Nigerian forward opened the scoring in a spectacular way, even Messi would have no option than to applaud for the young forward if not that Chukwueze is an opponent on the day. But, what was more striking in resemblance, and which you may have missed was how he scored his goal against FC Barcelona. It was the exact type of goal which Messi has scored on numerous occasions, and which Barca fans have now gotten accustomed to. At the 26th minute mark with the game still goalless, Pau Torres released Chukwueze through a well timed pass which the Nigerian controlled with extraordinary skill in Barca’s half. He dashed forward to meet Ster Stegen halfway, dribbled the German stopper in style and coolly slotted the ball into the back of the net. Sounds like someone you know? https://uptownerd.com/2021/04/26/samuel-chukwueze-scores-a-messi-like-goal-in-villareals-1-2-home-defeat-to-fc-barcelona/

Kent2020:I got it from the records they obviously don't want you to see. By the way, it's public knowledge and a simple research will clear your doubts. Religious organizations are known for suppressing and twisting tales. It's even worse for JW who can go to any length to excommunicate members who starts asking real Questions. |
ABCthings:You are confusing yourself. |
Disgusting!!! |
ABCthings:How? |

Jehovah's Witness core foundations has deep roots in their belief of Armageddon. The term 'Armageddon' literally means "the end of the world". Founded by Charles T. Russel, the Jehovah Witnesses core Christian roots is intrinsically tied to the fulfilment of Armageddon, and therefore it is usually uncommon to see members participating in world politics or government affairs. Using their popular publication platform called "Watch Tower", the group to predict the end of the world on five (5) occasions since they were formed. This is a Timeline of the predictions and the current state of things - 1) 1878 This date is noted as the first time the Jehovah Witnesses made a Prediction about the end of the world through Armageddon. Known as the Prediction about a possible end of the Lord's harvest, the JW predicted that God's harvest of his people will happen in 1878, and that God's people will be transformed to spirit beings afterwards. The prediction failed. However, it was shifted to the next year by a new explanation and revised prediction by the Founder. 2)1881 One would think that the failure of the first prediction will lead to a mass desertion of the group, but that wasn't the case. This is because in 1881, the Watch Tower made another prediction again credited to Charles T Russel - "We know not the day or hour, but expect it during 1881, possibly near the autumn where the parallels show the favor to Zion complete and due to end, the door to the marriage to shut, and the high calling to be the bride of Christ, to cease." Outcome: Failed! 3) 1914 Using his 'Studies in the Scriptures' series, Charles T Russel identified October 1914 as the year of final reckoning, citing that God's kingdom will come and Jesus Christ will start his Biblical reign on earth for millennials to come. He said that it is "an established truth that the final end of the kingdoms of this world, and the full establishment of the Kingdom of God, will be accomplished at the end of A.D. 1914". In this particular prediction, especially after his later reassurances of fellow Witnesses that the dates are God's dates and set, some members were noted to have sold their properties and belongings in anticipation of the D-DAY. Prediction Status: Failed! 4) 1918 After the failure of his 1914 prediction, Charles T. Russel gave more explanations as to why the Armageddon may not have happened at the expected date. According to him - "Studying God's Word, we have measured the 2520 years, the Seven symbolic Times, from that year 606 B.C. and have found that it reached down to October, 1914, as nearly as we were able to reckon. We did not say positively that this would be the year. We merely left every one to look at the facts of history and reckon for himself." However, this didn't stop the Jehovah Witnesses from making further predictions about Armageddon through their Watch Tower publication platform. In one of their publications, they acknowledged that they had no reason to doubt that the end of the world did not occur in 1914. According to them, 1914 was the year God displaced the rulers of the earth and the time of Gentiles ended. The beginning of the World Wars were cited as physical reference to that. In one of their publications titled "The Finished Mystery", the group again made a bold claim about the end of days, also supported by the JW president, Rutherford, who took over after the death of Charles T. Russel. Prediction Outcome: Failed! 5) 1925 Rutherford will go on to make another prediction, claiming that God's faithful's who have died in the past will be resurrected to enjoy everlasting life. Like the other previous predictions, this one also 'Failed'. https://uptownerd.com/2021/04/18/armageddon-5-times-jehovah-witness-predicted-the-end-of-the-world-and-what-happened-after/

Nigeria has turned to a Circus Show. If only Nigerians will realise that they're being milked dry all in the name of fight against insecurity when the root causes of insecurity are yet to be addressed. Question is, what is emboldening this bandits? |
Karlifate:Yeah, true. |
Simba00007:Thanks bro. |

We have all grown up with the popular saying that a lion never eats grass no matter the hunger or lack of meat to devour. Well, that may be true to an extent, but not entirely true. As opposed to the popular proverb, Lions actually do eat grass. Not long ago, I was watching animal documentaries on NatGeo Wild when the video of a Lion eating grass was shown. I'm sure, if it was you, you would have also been fixated to know what is happening. Well, after watching the documentary, I went further to research and see if it was true and it turned out to b factually correct that Lion's do eat grass in fact. However, they do it for a different reason altogether. Lions are carnivores and invariably, they eat a lot of meat - a male lion can consume an average of 7kg of meat per day while the females can eat about 4kg of meat a day. Their insatiable greed and hunger for meat also makes them automatic scavengers, muscling out weaker cats, hyenas, wolves and wild dogs whenever the occasion arises. But, this is mostly for Lions in the wild. Yet, it is noted that Lion's are actually Omnivores and do forage for vegetables and fruits from time to time to supplement their meat diet. Lions have been seen munching grasses. The reason they do this is to cause a stomach upset and allow them vomit things that may be irritating their stomach. For the domestic Lions, they eat grass because it is easily available and therefore they munch away as much as they can. In a nutshell, eating grass helps Lions deal with stomach upset and indigestion. When Lions eat indigestible parts of other animals like feathers and furs, eating grass helps them vomit it or discard of it in some other way. Watch the video ===> Lion Eating Grass
