Masturbation , this demon was a witch that held me bound for years...!

Not physical neither was it spiritual, but my subconscious mind wouldn't let me rest when ever this demon got a field day in me..... cry cry

But I'm clearly a testimony now.... kiss kiss kiss
I regret ever starting in the first place, I thank God I've stopped it now, although the temptation do arise especially when I'm alone and idle.

Goods worth almost 500k developed issues depriving me of sales. Now I may not meet up my end of year target but it is well.

Dad had stroke
Dad business crumbled
Kid sis died
Kid bro had accident with a broken leg
Landlord gave us quit notice
Mom and dad relocated to the village
(All in one year)
I stayed back in lag to sleep on the streets
I hustled hard
I didn’t join bad gang
I stayed focused
God turned things around
Now we are better than before
All glory to God.

Came back to Naija after my Masters degree in uk to stay 4 good years without job. I was miserable.

Eventually things changed for good. But those years were terrible.

November 11th 2001...


A day I will never forget, a day my life took a nose dive, a day I would have been dead and gone but the scars of that fateful day remains with me till date.

But I thank GOD for life and I am eternally grateful to GOD for making me triumph against all odds.

I won't bother you all with the details.

Setbacks only give you opportunity to be a better person. May we have bearable setbacks must we have setbacks at all.

Getting angry.. it almost ruined my relationship. I don't know if this is spiritual problem .. but the thing is anytime I think of settling down.. one thing will happen that will make me say something that will ruin the relationship. And what I will say will be unforgivable. I am still begging my fiancee since 4 days ago for the statement I uttered.

Bro na the same boat I dey with you

This your story was almost similar to mine but God had a hand and turned my fortunes around...

I gained admission

Dad had stroke

Dad lost his job

I got scholarships

I finished from school

Family went bankrupt treating dad up to the point he had to sell one of his houses

I eventually got a good job

Dad died

Life goes on
May his soul rest in peace

In the Nigerian context

Everybody get story to tell.. Being a Nigerian is a setback on its own

Men dey face trial everyday.. just thank God for life and move on
Been a Nigerian is never a set back, the set back is for those who believe that they can never have growth in Nigeria
