Phewww. Thank you. I was almost beginning to believe that everyone on this thread is superstitious when it's just money management that the intending couple lack.

I know because majority of the landlords in Nigeria invite their priests for "house warming", car dedication, etc. Some people go as far as placing a rosary behind their screen.

How is the rosary different from the pot beneath the foundation?

Let me share an experience...!!!

In 2013 had a very successful business and felt to set up more branches in Ph and Uyo. I had set up two more before I saw a business someone was willing to sell off and had to use my savings and a borrowed money (N300k) from a private money lender at 20% interest, with my Infiniti Jeep as collateral to buy....!!!

Not only did that new business with lots of prospect go down within three months of buying off, I kept paying interest for that N300k for over two years. (you can do the maths to know what extra i had to pay as interest). I also had to close down remaining two purchased earlier.

As if that was not enough, i couldn't renew my two bedroom apartment rent and had to move in to my office. I slept in my office for two years (wasn't married then).

One day, my cleaner who used to clean both my beautiful apartment and office pressurized me to come see her pastor cos she couldn't stand coming to work in the morning and seeing 'oga' hiding somewhere behind his desk as his bed. i had laid her off but she refused to stop working insisting even if I do not pay her anymore, she would still be cleaning for me.

I reluctantly went during one of their night vigil and the Pastor told me during the service that the person i borrowed some money from was the reason for my predicament. (i didn't tell her or my cleaner i borrowed money from anyone).


She volunteered to come and pray with me in my office and the very next day after her prayer in my office, the money lender visited my office for no reason. (he had never been to my office before).

few months later, i had all his N300k and interest to pay him and retrieved my car back from him.

Guess what he told me the day i went to collect my properties, 'the only man who had been to the lion's den and returned'

After that experience, i vowed never to have anything to do with private money lenders....!!!

My brother, let me tell u dis secret... try and get ursef ' a daddy in d Lord' not d flamboyant and get rich quick pastors but someone u know Christ dwells in him...abt 3yrs ago, wen hubby and I were looking for 'house to rent', an agent took us to a beautiful building ,immediately I fell inlove with d place, in d evening, after church service, my hubby only informed our pastor dat, we ve seen, an apartment, b4 my hubby cld say jack robbinson, he told him dat house is not a house, he shud look for another... when hubby told me wat daddy said, I was like , u shudnt have informed him in d first place(was selfish cos already liked the apartment) , hubby said he only wanted to tell him dat , we wld soon leave where we were occupying to another... nevertheless a message was already given, dis is a pastor I know God dwells in him, still was not convinced, I called my mom to give us her pastor's number, called d pastor and told him abt an apartment we interested in, he told us to call back d next day, also remembered a mummy -pastor, called her again and explained, she also told us to call back d next day... so we called both d next day, my mum 's pastor told us same thing, d mummy-pastor asked us to see d owner first b4 we make payment, told her dat she doesn't need to hide anything from us, dat she is our mummy, she den told us d same thing also, she went further explaining to us dat, so dat it will not get to a point where we resort to selling off our property to feed.... immediately it dawned on me to remove dat 'love for d place' from my memory, so then looked for another.
NB:the 3pastors were all CAC pastors... one in Abuja, my mum 's pastor in Ekiti while d mummy in Lagos
So my brother, next time, always seek d face of God in whatsoever dealings u know might have any impact on u be it negatively or positively...

Could any of you criticizing OP for going spiritual ask for his address and spend some days, or better still, relocate to his home?

Do not force him to remain there if his spirit no longer agrees with the home and the associated ill luck.

OP, in so far as your spirit no longer agrees with the home you live in, whether a voodoo lives there or not, please move out.
Majority of these landlords are occultic. I once lived in an apartment with a lot of engraved & artistic images and flowers. I didn't know they had implications until after 2 years when the landlord openly listed the reasons he planted those "flowers".

There is a particular thread on a dead headless woman on the front-page. You think the killers used the head of the innocent woman for pepper soup?

Another one here: www.nairaland.com/3372477/theres-room-house-makes-skin/4

U nailed it. Nigerians link to claim ignorance of spiritual things when such things are real. Whether they believe it or not ocultic and diabolic powers exist in this part of the world. Most of these guys claiming atheist have encountered or seen diabolic powers. Don't behave lik American when u r in Nigeria. If they tink there s no diabolic power they shud better ask most politicians.

This is Nigeria, a country filled with people with evil intentions. If you won't join them in their evil deeds, you need to brace yourself in order to resist their ways. I can tell you of a fact that 9 out of 10 landlords in this country did something "spiritual" on their lands/home. To some, it is prayers from a priest, some buried pots, dead animals, etc. You are an ordinary tenant, you can't afford to live clandestinely.

It is true Nigeria is too spiritual.. but do westerners cut their neighbours head for rituals? Did Trump bath in the middle of the night with an animal's blood to win the US presidential election? Do UK politicians distribute money in red coffin, like Dino Melaye did in Kogi state?

There is no comparison here, Nigerians and indeed Africans are wicked.

You have a nice plot here. Unfortunately, you and not the money lender is the cause of your problems. How can you even borrow money at 20% interest? DO you know what it means?

The first step in living a fulfilling life is staying away from debt, which I have decided to do. The so called debt you take from banks and the likes always put one pressure on you that you end up making wrong business choices. Ask people paying LAPO loans what they go through and you will be surprised.

Unfortunately, many never learn.

Your problem had nothing to do with the money lender and absolutely everything to do with you.

In June 2014, I moved into this house in ikeja while working with an oil and gas firm and my fiancé was living and working in the states and was planning to relocate back to Nigeria so we can get married and start our own family. In December 2014, same year I moved into the house, I got sacked by the company for no reason and this is a job I have been doing for almost 3 years and since then I have not gotten another job till this moment because I feel that someone with my experience shouldn't be finding it difficult to get another job because I have worked with 3 major oil and gas firms with close to 8 years experience. In 2015, my fiancé got back from the states hoping to start a business and before we know it we started spending the money on nothing tangible till it finished and ever since she tried going back but no luck due to no money to finance it and nobody is willing to assist us with money, it's like helpers are running away to assist. We struggled to pay this year's rent ( 300k ) which will expire by June next year. Just recently someone told us to move out of the house that the owner might have done something to hinder our progress while he progresses and also I was told by someone in the neighborhood that a labourer died in the building while building the house and we are the first occupant of this house. I and my fiancé have concluded to move out of the house.
So fellas what do you think?

Opakan2:
@OP it's very true

the owner might not be living with you guys.. this world is full of evil people who don't care what becomes of others

Good thing you've identified some of the signs, just move if possible before the rent expires for your own good.. A friend of mine had similar experiance, he is doing well now after moving to another place

lemme give you and other NLers a quick peek into what they do.. they use landed properties or vehicles including tricycles, motorcycles for 'oshole' (rituals).. any tenant living in those houses can't progress.
The vehicles will have accidents from time to time in order to replenish their wealth etc. etc.

you see why you have to be very prayerful and vigilant

PstBiola:
Dear Otunba,
I greet you in the name of Jesus. It is well with you sir. I have meditate on your predicaments and I have a goodnews for you. Please relax, as you shall run, overtake and recover all the enemies have stolen from you.

Please, what is your dream like? You were attacked because you once neglected your responsibility to your guiding angels (your parent and someone who had help your destiny). The enemy took advantage of this and stood on that as a legal ground to attack you.

Please my God is able and ready to restore unto you all your wasted opportunities, if only you can retrace your steps (fiancee) back to the Almighty and ensure you restitute your ways with your guiding angels.

I am praying for you sir. Let me know if you have any questions. May the Lord have mercy on you and accept your restitutions. Amen

Yours in His Vineyard,

PstBiola

I get the points, but I'd still advise OP to go ahead and fortify himself. Some atheists will jump on this thread, read your comments and mislead innocent people. I actually don't take them seriously. They mostly claim they don't believe in God but what we don't know is that their parents are back in the village praying and fasting earnestly for their success. Even our Seun on Nairaland has misled a lot of ignorant people into his beliefs. What they don't know is that the name "Seun" actually means "Oluwaseun" (meaning: God thank you). What this tells me is that Seun's parents may actually be the serious prayer warriors behind his success.

I have a very wealthy Uncle today who, I'm sure must have misled a lot of people with his wayward life. Today, they all celebrate him, spend his money, but what these people don't know is that my uncle spent a month in MFM when he nearly died of poverty. Today he is wealthy and have totally forgotten about God or Church. If he claims atheist today, a lot of his followers will abandon God.

Today, everyone envy Don Jazzy. What they don't know is that Don Jazzy hails from Celestial Church. While he no longer attends Cele, I'm 100% sure he has links with those priests who continually fortify him, in spite his wealth.

messenger4891:
Are you a pastor?

Mobsync:
And what do you mean by "priests"? So far, I know landlords call mostly alfas or pastors, depending on their religious alignment. So please clarify the word "priest" because you make it sound as if they call some occult people.

Don Jazzy is not Cele but C&S, there is a difference in the two churches, Just like Redeem and winners

Valkyr:
I could say there's no causal element because time has interfered. If the events were proximate like while parking in, your car was snatched and so and so, one could be certain.
The art of bewitchment seems real. At least, one bright brain I know is researching it. He wouldn't waste his time chasing such shadow for nothing. Man lives in two worlds and these two worlds do act on each other...

I'm being talkative? Go buy incense. U no need ordination to do that. Just bless it, burn it. If you can speak Latin do cos that's what the devil listens to attentively..na spiritual first aid before pronouncements of experts.

Ibime:
Brainwashed nonsense. If you can't afford the house, just tell us.

Africans always looking for witches and wizards under the carpet.

Even house sef done turn winch.

Please what are the differences between both of them?
