It is simple, these stories have been romanticized for modern public consumption but they are still steeped in Idolatory.

In the centuries of brutal colonialism, Africans were told that they had no history and no civilization. The mental slavery still exists today. People actually believe in their hearts that a white man is better than them. The Benin wall according to some historical records was longer than the wall of China in the 16/17th century. We had books of scholarship in Timbuktu, Mali, black people built in pyramids in Egypt and Sudan. Today, the treasures of the Benin kingdom are still in European Museums.

Africans have not told their stories, they have not looked within for solutions. Several of our problems can be resolved by looking within. We can not keep looking for aid money that is designed to help European and American contractors.

The same thing goes for our football. A holistic approach is needed to revamp our football and make its model for Africa. The talent is there. We need to take bold steps to change things.
If we do not improve our economy and actually be reckoned with our stories wont sell either here or outside. if we are at pace with the rest of the world no one needs to be convinced that we are all equals, it will be glaringly apparent.
Our christian nd islamic beliefs has made everything associated with our herioc past a no go area for us. Of all our past heros or mythological past i think Sango is the one that would probably cut across, its well known here and also outside the shores of Nigeria, mortal xombat even has a shango character. And as god of thunder, thats a fearsome character and it has a staff like thors mijr hammer

haaaaa!greek mythology. had a book when i was in primary school about greek legends and myths and arabian nights. how i loved that book. elder sister hid it once. i cried like i was bereaved until i found the book. prosepina, pandora's box, the legend of icarus, pygmalion, the story about king midas,zeus, bacchus, the seven journeys of sinbad, aladdin, the wonderful lamp and ali baba and the forty thieves.

while writing i tried to find a national mythological theme that could perhaps resonate with our players but i couldnt recall any. Queen amina of zaria came to mind but i doubt if it would connect with the team. she was a fearless warrior.
what of mai idris alooma or ogedengbe of ilesa, queen idia is a good one too. due to the nature of our nationhood you would hardly find any that would resonate across the nation.

a mistake is inevitable for a goalie at any tournament, I don't know what you classify as a rookie mistake, maybe what Akpeyi did, but I doubt Uzoho is silly enough to do something like that.

The way you guys talk of rookie mistake, you would think experienced goalies never make mistakes. What is your definition of a 'rookie mistake'? And who are the first and second choice goalies you want to take to the world cup that Uzoho would be thirs behind them?
spot on. We all look for easy labels and tags so as to feel we are experts in life. Joe hart, bravo, seaman and a host of other keepers have made mistakes that if they were young keepers we would easily call them rookie mistakes. Mistakes are mistakes and there are none that are exclusively made by rookie keepers

@ bolded.. I will tell u why Jesus missed that penalty when u tell me why messi or Ronaldo misses penalties and open goals..
pep does not care that you missed a goal or scorpe
pep wants you to play his and his style only because his style guarantees that there would be plentyw of more goal scoring chances. So if you dont score your chance but play his another chance will come your way or the way of another player and once the chances keep coming the goal would come. For example sterling may eventually score up to 30 goals this season but if everton or tottenham buys him and expect 30 goals from him they would be shocked when he does not acore up to 10 goals. The dude needs like 3 or 4 chances, which team will he get that in the epl except man city or a pep team

Christianity EtcRe: Can Christian Couple Have Sex After Traditional Marriage Ceremony? by rabzy: 1:56am On Dec 08, 2017
olasunkanmii:
Both are mutually exclusive. Reason; by the traditional wedding, you have performed the customary rites required for the marriage ( the peoples' mandate), but by crowning it with the white (church) wedding, you are entrusting your union into God's hand. So, no "chucking" until the white wedding is done
so traditional marriage can not be entrusted to God. So you must enter a building before something can be entrusted to God. Jesus said no temple is important or indispensable, neither in this mountain nor in the temple will people worship but they will worship with spirit and truth.

Nsofor has managed to find his best form in recent weeks hitting the back of
the net five times in his last three games.

The highpoint for Nsofor arrived in the FA victory over
Nottingham Forest where he netted a hat-trick coupled with his trademark
somersaults and back flips.



And Grant has no issues with Nsofor’s mode of celebrating his
goals and hopes he gets to grab more goals.

“I don’t have a problem with his somersaults,” Grant said ahead
of Sunday’s loss to Birmingham. “I hope he will have a lot of reasons to do
them again this season.

“It took him time to adjust this season because he didn’t play much in
Italy, but he is playing well now.”


http://nigeriang.com/sports/nsofors-future-depends-on-west-hams-survival/7408/

As I said, it is easy to reach stats and argue. Which is far different from those who were watching it and debating what they saw.
lololol. 3 goals and 1 assist in 25 appearances with one Red card is a very poor stat anywhere for someone who is firing on all cylinders. So what exactly does he do, people he passes to dont score and he too does not score, is he then a defender. If iremember nsofors game then, he shoots a lot with very poor accuracy

It was a bad pass by Kelechi. Ndidi recovered the ball, passed to Kelechi who laid it for Iwobi.

Ndidi is a tackling machine. If he keeps up the pace and plays to his potential at the World cup, i see him joining a major club.
Kelechi's control and passes are something he really needs to work on and he is too one-footed.

Christianity EtcRe: Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo And Daddy Freeze Exchange Words Over Tithing by rabzy: 5:00pm On Dec 01, 2017
Khaliyah:
But tithing has Been in existence long before the Law, so it's not applicable to vex 12. Tithing and circumcision were before the law that's why they are still being practiced, or you think circumcision should stop too because of the Law?
Animal sacrifice too was before the law, ABEL NOAH ABRAHAM JACOB JOB all of them used animals to atone for their sins and also to thank God. Why are the pastors not asking people to sacrifice animals. what abraham did was not the tithing of the mosaic law. It was not from his earnings they were spoils of war other peoples property, he gave 10 percent to the priest and 90 percent to a pagan king because the spoils were from his people.

God did not tell him to do it and he did not continue to give the priest his earnings monthly or yearly. it was a voluntary action. Even for the jews, there wasno punishment attached to not tithing. No whereis it said that you are cursed or calamity will befall you if you dont tithe as all these pastors keep saying to scare people. please read the scriptures and stop following modern day pharisees with their traditions of men.

AgricultureRe: RENT A FARM. Very Sweet Deal by rabzy: 8:46pm On Nov 21, 2017
fluentinfor:
Your comments and recommendation cannot be overlooked. Bro, I know you are forced to make this comment because the assumptions are logical. You know within yourself that if the issues aren't addressed, this farm might not get interested people on this platform. Or might get responses from just some casual people. And since I do not write to destroy the reputation of anyone, i will make some comments. But I think you would have made a better judgement than the owner.

Seriously, i think the owner does not know how to quickly spot signals. If he cannot quickly spot he is limiting his chances of getting a good tenant if he doesn't address the issues raised, then, i believe he did not spot the signals that his workers were "bleeding" his business very early enough. And frankly speaking, he may move from frying-pan to fire with this method he wants to use. It may not be his best option.

Back to your comment. I checked the coordinates and with what you wrote, it seems the farm is along the farm land of Ogun Osun River Basin. The farm with a central Pivot System. If I am right, that road is used by rice smugglers from Benin Republic. I experienced that once and I had to clear off the road for thousands of bikes all cycling at top speed with 3 to 6 bags of rice attached to their bikes at the same time. They always remove the passengers seat. Though the road was made for accessing farms but they found it as a way out to avoid customs and police along the main road. It was crazy. That day I realised Fulani and his herds fear their lives too. Come see how cattles "picked race" and cleared off the road for these bike riders. I could not laugh because I had to save myself too. Mehn! It was crazy. Perhaps this is the road you are talking about. It was rumble in the jungle - Bike Formular One in Owode/Idi-Iroko. grin

Most of my assumptions are reasonable and they produced answers to some of my questions. Like I said, I do not need to go to the farm before I know what to meet there.

Unknowing to the owner, the main attraction for me was not the palm trees but I know if I have to get the farm, I must take care of his palm trees as this is his own focus. The main atttaction for me are even his 10 acres, and the non working tractor on his farm. But he did not realise that at times, what he feels his juicy is not to another person. One man's meat is a poison to another. I know within me that I am not going to make the kind of profit I want with his trees. He cannot boldly tell me he is still going to retain me as a partner in 10- 25 years when his trees are producing at optimum. You may call it another assumption but the probability is very high he will relocate to Nigeria to take over the farm before that time. You see what I mean.

Well, he may be a good "bros" to you which I do not doubt but for me, he has just failed to realise I may be his best shot and since he thinks he is dashing me the best juicy offer, and his stands on not elaborating on the so called juicy offer, i am sure he will not want to elaborate on many other things in the future. No matter how juicy any offer is, I look first for a good relationship.

He was forced to mention that he is abroad. I mean i was just trying to get it that why does he want to lease out a farm because it is far from him. His farm is like the next bus stop to Lagos and I was just wondering. Or will he tell me that he resides in Osun where land is cheaper and decided to set up a farm in Ogun? It doesnt make sense to me that he is far away from his farm at the initial stage. He mentioned only palm trees, and weekly visitation is enough. He is not doing veggie which needs serious tender care. Until i forced him to say it that he does not reside in Nigeria. Funny, the so called assumptions forced him to say it. WHY? The assumptions are not baseless.

My fear is this: will I make him voice out details everytime I need info from him? Seriously, farming is hard enough, and it makes one dig deep, using 90% of ones brain. I do not have the strength to start cracking my brain on presenting cases to my landlord because I have to make assumptions that will force him to give me details everytime.

Like I said, it is the 10-acres part, and the non working tractor that attracted me to his offer. And since he refused to give details about them, his offer is not juicy in any way to me. Not at all. It is like I am going to work his farm for him.

I hope you understand me clearly sir.
like i said i appreciate your candor and straight talking. Some people are averse to social media due to their training and professions. So they prefer not to be communicative on social media because of its nature. This is a public forum and some people prefer talking business in a more formal way. you are absolutely right about the location and the smugglers. There are yoruba farmers with herds on their land and even the owner has some cows with a fulani man and his wife tending to them. I am asking that you send him a mail and check it out because i want the farm to succeed. The owner is a well respected prefessional in his field and i dont see him relocating here. The farm is another project and a passion for him, he comes around and personally do some farm work with his workers. I want you to for the benefit of doubt contact him and see whether ot can take off.

AgricultureRe: RENT A FARM. Very Sweet Deal by rabzy: 3:35am On Nov 21, 2017
fluentinfor:
The reason for doing this looks reasonable at first but there are more to it. Also, I think you need to change your heading.

A rented farm is one whereby monthly, yearly or whatever period charges is paid. So, I do not think your offer is a rent. A rentage contract is the same as a lease contract.

In your case, you want monthly loyalty and I think it is partnership you are looking for. But there are points I am going to highlight here that make me have a deep thought about this your juicy offer. I really do not see it juicy until you address these issues well. They are:

1. You listed two motorbikes as your part of your assets. Does it mean your farm road is not good? And it is palm oil one has to move out. Also, there are other by-products which are heavy and are large volumes which should give more profit. I am trying to get it if it is motorbikes which will be moving them out at some periods of the year like rainy season when the road might be extremely terrible. Though, you have a truck but having two bikes is saying something to me. In short, how good the road leading to your farm is vital. And how far your farm is to the major road is vital too. If it is not good, no matter the paradize you have on your farm, it is absolutely not juicy. And you need to really be flexible with your offer.

2. Your trees are producing just 2,500 liters per annum now and you want monthly loyalty. grin How do you want this new guy do it? And to crown it, you are offering 2 years contract. Though, you said can be renewed. And which means it can be terminated too anytime. You and I know that it is after that 2 years you have given that production starts getting better. Come on! Can you leave the farm and let the guy continue for the next 10 years or more? Will you not kick him out after 4 years? After he has done the hard part for you? Death is a debt we all have to pay. I am not saying you are going to die now but will you include it in your will that the person must continue production after your departure? Won't your children kick his ass out later? Even it is after 15 years the business is really good. This is a long term business mehn! So, it is like you want someone else to come in and do the hard part for you while you lay claim of the farm when it is really profitable later. And then, distance will not be a barrier again. It seems so to me. Please address this very well.

3. The 8 acres you talked about must still be a thick forest. Seriously, the cost of buying that land is cheaper than clearing it and you and I know very well. If stumps must be removed, the cost of clearing is higher than the cost of buying the land. So, do you not see it as an investment the new guy is making on your farm too? I tell anyone I want to use his farm straight. I am helping you to clear your land which is huge investment. If you have the capital, you would have cleared it and then tell me to just come cultivate and pay rent. So, many times, it is why i just leave stumps and go through the pain of using cutlasses and axe clearing system (very painful exercise and not efficient) and I will deliberately leave many big stumps so that it discourages the owner from layimg claim to it after i have spent so much on clearimg it. Once owners see their land has been cleared well, they always do not want to renew contracts. But it is bad for our agricultural system. So, please do you see that it is not so juicy? Please, address this issue too.

4. To install 5kva generator to produce just 2,500 liters per annum now is funny ooo. Might be, it would have been better you send your fruits to mills instead of doing it now and wait till you have enough fruits that will make sense with the capacity of factory you have now. It means, you just need to run at loss for like 6 years or more before you start making profit. I think you did not consult an expert before setting up. Or the expert was just interested in selling you equipments and you fell for it. It is what I am seeing happenimg here again. Except you can convince me that 2,500 liters will cover the cost of production and give reasonable profit to the extent of you collecting monthly loyalty. You may need to run figures here. You see why I said I will interrogate you. grin

4. I do not see long distance to farm as you claimed as the real barrier here; though, i kinda accepted it in my first paragraph. I think the business is not just profitable now.

5. There is no way anyone can make your farm be exactly the way you released it. There must be wear and tear. So, i might not be able to sign for doing repairs and other stuff if it has to do with wear and tear.

6. The person coming in will spend so much to make it profitable and it is the truth.

Recommendation:
1. I think you need to accept the fact that the business is still not profitable and what you should do is write it out explicitly the challenges and look for partners or investors that can make it work well since it seems you need more fund to get on. You have really tried I must confess.

2. What you need now is to do short term crops so you can make money. And it is vegetables, herbs or spices you should do. The choice of veggie must be looked into well since it seems the road to your farm is not good.

You have really tried. I salute your courage to go into such long term investment. You are a real risk taker. The only area you left out is creating short term business on your farm to give you income while your palm trees are getting ready to make you rich.

So, I think I am the one giving you free advice (consultation). And it makes my service to you extremely juicy grin
am surprised to see this farm up for rent but i understand why. The owner of the farm is well known to me and i have been to the farm. You made some assumptions which are clearly not the case. The owner believes if he was in the country the farmwould ru. more efficiently and be profitable. Many times he pays for services that are not done or poorly done and has to be redone. He can only visit once or twice so the workers are taking advantage of that. He has a security man or caretaker on the farm, this is the guy that uses the motorbike. it was misused and he had to buy another, he was just trying to make things convenient for the guys. The road to the farm is motorable, they are smugglers roads, i went in a car and the car got there with scratches from branches and shrubs.

if you really are an investor, then i want to vouch for the OPs character, based on what you said i think you are a very okay guy and knows the biz. i have known the farm owner foe 20 years as a big bros to me. I think the two of you can actually do well. He is a man of integrity and honesty. The uncultivated 8 acres is not inside any bush. its just a part that has not been planted with palms. its part of the whole parcel, there are other farms all around the bothers of the farm.

bros sorry for answering without permissions, i know say you no send me the message.

Well said my brother. In Luke 21 Jesus collected the last money a widow had (widow's mite) and use it to teach about giving with all your heart.
i had to comment on this, its a shame that a story that is well known for milleniums is even being misread now and also to support a fraud. JESUS DID NOT COLLECT ANY MONEY FROM THE WOMAN. THE MONEY WAS DROPPED INTO THE TEMPLE TREASURY. So all the rich men that were dropping big money into the same box, was jesus collecting from them too. people should read the bible more, this is the reason william tyndale died. The bible used to be in latin understood only by clergymen. But william tyndale and some other priests and men realised people were being taught falsehood. so against the laws of the land and a rsik to his life, he translated the bible into the common man language English, so that even a sherpherd boy can understand and know the bible better than priests. William tyndale was burnt at the stake because he translated the Bible for common men like you and i to read and understand. So what do we do for people who can read the bible but still do not understand or know what they are reading especially a simple event like the windows mite. The case of the widows mite shows that it matters not how much you contribute but your heart motivation and condition really determines the value of your contribution.

A lot of us have gotten into physical fights that we wish our friends didnt interfere, that doea not mean when we see people quarreling or fighting we should just allow them to slug it out. We would all end up worse than animals

17 “Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”

18 “Which ones?” he inquired.

Jesus replied, “‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, 19 honor your father and mother,’[a] and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’[b”



20 “All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?”

21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.

23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God


This is the context ,You claim to be a Christian but you lack knowledge of scripture and you are arrogant
How can any one whose brain is working say from this scripture Jesus was talking about shedding pride?
No mind the guy, resting place kor, sleeping place ni. Some even said there is a gate in Jerusalem called needle...lol

Sometimes, Silence is golden....

For those who can't tell the difference in dispensation, can't appreciate the fact that for once moGs are waking up and ain't refered to no more as POOR CHURCH RATS,
People who can't differential between true worshippers of God and money mongers. Silence is golden.

Like i always tell your types, out of twelve, there was a Judas and you folks expect bad eggs not to spring up among fruits?


I make bold to say: there are true moG who are running with the mandate and nothing your types can so to stop them.

The gospel is going global. Churches are now able to pay for dedicated hosting and the gospel is penetrating countries with Christian restrictions and a host of others good money can afford.

Its a diff despensatuon.
More Jets wud be bought. Haters would keep hating.

People like you insult God! Are you saying the almighty God can't favour and bless his own with PJs without them touching church money? Smh
What types are you talking about. So is it because people call them church rats that turned them to thieves. Out of twelve there are 11.9 thieving pastors. Nobody is trying to stop them, there would always be blind guides leading the blind into pits, Jesus said that. It is just the few that would escape the pit that God is interested in. The Gospel has gone global before the likes of your MOGs, in the first decades of Christianity it was already broken into 3 continents. Missionaries have been penetrating restricted areas for thousands of years. Christianity was spread by zealous missionaries penetrating hinterlands, living and teaching the native people the gospel, eating, dining and dying with them the way Jesus did, not by celebrity pastors globe-troting all over the world in opulence. The JWs dont tithe but there is nothing your tithe collecting pastors can afford that they cant. There is hardly any country or Island they dont have missionaries or members.

Nobody is insulting God, even without touching the money, spreading a false message of tithing so as to fill the money box warrants them being called out, then they also start pilfering from the Box and claiming blessing from God. Nah them go first be God's ministers, we've had zealous christians, apostles and ministers in the Bible, compare and contrast your mentors to the original mentors.

Only idiots say what they hear or imagine about people authoritatively.
Adeboye doesn't have fleets of jet, even Freeze knows that. The jet he uses is for the church and we use it for charter when he doesn't have to travel. More like an official plane because we can afford it!
Most things you see in that man's name are gifts given by people who's seen him as a high priest. Yes some people might make merchandise of the original vision God has given to him, just like how people use Facebook for porn and dubious things (do you blame zuckerberg for it though ?)
He's not an illiterate, he's humble, he's wise and the high priest of this country.

Leave God to judge these guys himself and mind your silly business.
He is not a high priest of any one. The only high priest or leader christians have is Christ Jesus said 'let no one be called father, all you are brothers'. No one should belong to Paul nor Apollos nor Enoch Adeboye nor place them in positions that should not exist in christianity There is only one high priest Jesus Christ.

The problem with most of you is complete, total ignorance. And honestly ironing out issues with an ignorant person is a waste of time.

Most Nigerian Christians don't have any clue about the bible. What did Jesus mean?

During the time of Christ, camel was transportation animal. Now where the camel is kept is called needle. For the camel to enter a needle it will remove it's overload then enter it's place of rest through the needle. So what Christ implied is a rich man will remove all pride, be humble. How did He end the passage you quoted, that what is impossible with man is possible with God.
Please can you let us know in what time, culture or language was the resting place of a camel called a needle. Is it in aramaic or hebrew or greek. And please bear in mind Jesus said 'eye of a needle'. This needle resting place also has to have an eye for it to apply.
