The thing these Chinese unleashed on the world! This evil virus is just inexplicable...some get it and recover fully, while others get it and it kills them! You even see people in their 80s recovering from it, while a relatively young and healthy Odumakin succumbs! Just can’t wrap my head around it!

Then look at Rachel Bakam as well! huh

Yes, you are right.
That is why we have to live a good and kind life here on earth, so that will can be in paradise with God forever and ever.
Just take a look at these emotional pictures below,
They look just as they are sleeping on their beds!!
JESUS CHRIST IS LORD FOREVER AND EVER.

wunmi590:
Shey you want help us wake am up ni, senior man sad
We wish we have the power.
Had it been so, the first person we are going to wake up from dead would be ............... (sigh, so emotional rn!
Let's keep that on our chests for now.)

RIP Yinka.

The spoken mouth went into dead silence and the thinking mind ceased to be.Let both the leaders and the led,the rich and the poor,the high and mighty take a vital lesson that the world is a passage we are not here to stay put we are only passing through.

Africans


Few days ago, A whole Duke of Edinburgh and husband to the Almighty Queen of England was buried today, only 18 invited guests.

No reception nor takeaway packs, no uniform, liveband, tent/canopy, not even bottle/pure water.

No cooler of food for the Choristers or appreciation envelopes for officiating ministers, no age grade levy or community levy and no taxing/levy on in-laws.

But in Nigeria, if Okada rider dies....., his immediate and extended family must feed 5 thousand people with 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes..

We really need to repent and have sense.
