Before we thougth the igbos had sense but due to some unfolding events happening recently i am having a rethink

Nigerian pastor, Pastor Ade Abraham is smiling all the way to the bank as his church members queue up to pay him N 310k each to get them to heaven.

Nigerian Pastor, Ade Abraham, Bills Church Members N310,000 Each To ‘Fly Them To Heaven’

Abraham also assured the members that they would all ‘ascend to heaven together from the location in Ekiti’.

Ade Abraham, the pastor of Christ High Commission Ministry, also known as Royal Christ Assembly, Kaduna State, has convinced members of his church to relocate to a camp in Ekiti State with him, in order to “prepare for the end of the world”.

According to reports, the pastor first relocated to Ekiti State from Kaduna State, where he was formerly based, in 2020.

He then later returned to Kaduna State in April to ask each member of his church to pay him N310,000 before they would be allowed to follow him to Omuo-Ekiti, where “the gates of heaven will open for all of them to fly to heaven”.

According to our source, Abraham also assured the members that they would all ‘ascend to heaven together from the location in Ekiti’.

“My relative has also asked her daughter, who is studying abroad, to return to Nigeria, or else the pastor (Abraham) would make her commit an offence over there that would see her go to jail,” the source said.

The newspaper also obtained a WhatsApp conversation that backed up the source’s claim. It was the conversation that reflected what the pastor’s follower told her daughter.

“Daddy Abraham said I should tell you to come back, that he is the one who makes you to come down to Nigeria [sic] and I was the one who gave you the chance to return back there, that I should also know how you will come back [sic] or he will make you to commit an offence over there and they will put you in prison. That he probably send you down so you will achieve your goals [sic],” the chat read.

“Please Elizabeth, if there is how you will help yourself to come back, I will be glad [sic]. Don’t let daddy put any one of you in trouble.”

Another member of the church who is currently in camp in Ekiti said that Abraham’s campers still go about their normal businesses on regular days.

The follower also said “saved members” left their “past lives” behind in Kaduna to join the pastor in Ekiti on April 6. He confirmed that they would be at the camp with the pastor “until the day of rapture”.

According to the member, Abraham still holds regular church services on Sundays and Wednesdays.

“We are not coming back. I can’t explain in details,” the member said.

“We are going to make rapture from here. We are going to a heavenly place.”

The 1 akpabio built is bigger than dis and what have dey been using it for that another 1 is being built.....money that should have been use to upgrade health facilities or education

udele1:
It use to be Nnamdi kanu talking about the Biafra without a map or plan of actualization.

From donald trump to israel to ambazonia.

Now that kanu has been arrested, nobody is talking about Biafra or how it will be actualized.

They are only talking about how to release kanu.

Which bank account to pay in.

Simon Ekpa a criminal.

CHinasa nworu a criminal.

Who is ESN and who is not. Who killed who.

So without Nnamdi kanu talking about a Biafra without map and plan, nobody else has a plan to get the Biafra?

So kanu spends 20 years in prison, they will wait for 20 years to start talking about the imaginary Biafra?

It's not Europe: it's exile.

True freedom fighters are either in exile, the grave, or dead. You don't know what freedom fighting is. That is why you are a typical black man.

I have made research about the Egyptians and I come to conclusion that they are the most foolish people in earth.

Egypt should have been envy of the human race and alien inclusive.

As part of their successes,
They invented writing, they had the earliest form of education, in art, the Egyptian were at the forefront, in medicines, religion and military.

Egypt had the first tallest man made structure, when others didn't even think it was possible. (The pyramid)
They had the resources, (gold).
Did you know, the first form of modern agricultural was started by the Egyptians. When they had to improvise to water their farm down the Nile, they invented irrigation system.
In power, they equally had a taste of power when the Roman empire was the strongest.

In engineering, apart from the pyramids, have you seen their structures, their obelisk and how it was made?
I ask, why is Egypt a shadow of its former self now? That would have been the strongest country in the world.

I agree with you on some things but the problem I am having is, when the colonialists came, why did we give in so cheaply?
We worshipped those white people like gods, common African people carried them around on their shoulders, backs, etc. Our fathers/leaders captured fellow blacks and sold them for razor, looking glasses, ciga pipes, and other ridiculous things. Today we are still doing the same thing: our leaders will get sick and prefer to go abroad for medical treatment, how many times have you heard that British PM go to Germany for medical check up? It will never happen, because the British will feel so dehumanized for their leader going to another country for medical treatment, but our own leaders will happily do this! What stops our leader from establishing a state of the art hospital here in Nigeria, even if it is specifically for the presidential use?

Phaantom22:
Is this an archievement? So the investor(s) na just this white man? Why can't the state develop a blue print for it's development rather than wait for white men?

We actually did trade among ourselves before the colonizers came, our transportation technology was the only limitation to our interactions at that time. From the Yoruba history, which I know, Yoruba traded with the Hausas and Fulanis and they travel as far as Ashanti kingdom (Ghana)!

Now, on the second part.
The collaboration you pointed out above is just on commerce, buying and selling among the African nations. We have been doing that since the beginning of time and there is nothing spectacular about that!
Collaboration I am talking about is in areas of ground breaking technology and science, such as having a regional rocket launching station or regional satellite building company, etc!

First, at the bolded, common citizens buy those things because they are cheap (bend down boutiques for fairly used foreign cloths and shoes and Belgium/tokunbo for fairly used cars). How many common citizens can afford Innoson cars?
The elites patronize foreign products because of the mentality of class that is embedded in us!
The rot in African must be blamed on everybody, from ordinary citizens to the ruling class. I just watched the election in France on TV now and I was just WAO! No violence, no political thugs, everybody was voting and smiling. They even brought their children and pets to the polling stations

DrFreeman:
The black race were worshipped by white Europeans, Greeks and Romans and others in the distant past.

The irony of our flipped situation today is almost hilarious if not pathetic.

sinkhole:
it is better you start by preaching to the ruling class than the common people!
Currently, ASUU is on strike and part of their demand is that FG should use their own in-house software to service them, but the FG is insisting that they will only use a software that is foreign made and imposed!
Europeans gather together and form a space program because they know that individually they may not have the power to do it, but have you seen African countries coming together to embark on ground breaking technological or scientific exploit?
What I am saying in essence is that we should first of all realize that something is wrong with us and then when we addressed the problem we can then move on, instead of leaving on past glories!

You don't have ethics of talking to people especially strangers, Do you have to abuse before you make a point? I admit I didn't read it through to that extent, but your reply reeks of much ignorance.

sinkhole:
OK, with all these fancy statements about the past, why can't Africans carry the same to this present time and perhaps into the future, why are Africans so backward now?
Chinese, Russians, Japanese, etc were great before and they are still great now. What happens to the continuity theory as regards Africans?
You will likely tell me that some people came and dissuade us, bla, bla, bla! But somebody who does not have any standing principle can be easily swayed by anybody!

VictorUSA:
This is mere propaganda by the antiwest to set confusion among the West.We ain't taking shit anymore.

Perfectbeing:
All these a petty talks we tell ourselves so we can sleep at night. Whether it is true or not, one thing that is certain is that the rest of the World is leaving Africa behind.. We've gat to wake up to reality.

leksite120:
90% of all what you listed are from Egyptians, not solely black people as it painted.
Egyptians aren't that African, they're geographically Africa but culturally Middle-Easterner. Their brethrens are in middle-east which they share similar culture and religion with

This is what should be taught to kids in schools in Africa and not all those bunch of lies that Mungo Park discovered the river Niger. The educational curriculum needs an overhaul. Nigerian children are still being taught the same crappy curriculum that the British left behind for us in 1960. Our educators in Nigeria are too lazy to throw the entire curriculum in the garbage and create a new one. Oh well! That is why our people are still worshiping oyibo today while simultaneously hating anyone who looks like them.

Rostikol:
It is not that straightforward. When civilizations fall, it is is usually due to a multiplicity of factors, both internal to the civilization, and external to it.

What constitute 'evil practices' or 'good practices' are really a matter of opinion and judgement/worldview, and are even subject to the flow of time, ie what was considered evil a thousand years ago is considered good or harmless today, and vice versa.

The more relevant element is vulnerability. How vulnerable has your civilization become to collapse? Any number of things could cause it.

You could have foreign enemies desperate for your resources, who then develop deadlier weapons of war than you, and then invade and defeat you.

You may have leadership infighting and royal succession quarrels that may lead to a divided empire, making you easier to invade and topple.

You could fall to climatic changes, eg the desertification of the once fertile Sahara desert causing empires to disappear and their people to flee southwards, to more challenging environments.

It could be a combination of all the above factors, plus others, which lead to the fall of a civilization.
