My mom was traveling to the village yesterday and was involved in an accident, I never knew about it until this morning. I don’t know her condition but I’m on my way to UNTH right now. I damn scared, please pray for her.

Visit Lagos State, and compare it to other states in Nigeria.

Tinubu have a lot to offer Nigeria.

Lagos State could have been struggling with states like Rivers, Kano, Kaduna and Oyo

But, Lagos State don go far ahead.

You are talking like this cause you were not in Lagos in the 90's

When I got to Lagos in the mid 90's, there was no development happening in Lagos State. The military were spending oil money in Abuja and abandoned Lagos State.

Roads in Lagos was terrible, insecurity was crazy. in the 90s, Thieves go rob a full street without anybody stopping them, dem go dey go from house to house, robbing each rooms one after the other, nah normal thing for Lagos back then. Those days, you go dey see abandon cars for roads, including major roads like 3rd mainland bridge. If your car breakup for 3rd mainland, even if you leave am there for 1 year, nobody go question you or tow the car away.

The IGR of Lagos State was less than ₦500 million in 1999, I don't need to tell you how much is it now.

Tinubu was the first Governor to build a power plant in Nigeria, he built it in Badagry and was going to be generating 300MW of power in Lagos State but the FG took over and ran it aground. If the FG didn't take over the project, maybe Michelin, Dunlop etc would still be in Lagos State by now.


Have you forgotten about OPC madness in Lagos State under the tenure of Tinubu? The days OPC go dey block roads because them dey hold meetings? Tinubu didn't cry and blame Yorubas from other states causing havoc in Lagos, he crushed OPC. He didn't care it was dominated by Yorubas.

Lekki Free Trade Zone, Eko Atlantic City, Lekki Deep Seaport, etc were all the creation of Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Maybe you got to Lagos State during the tenure of Ambode sha, we wey live for Lagos during the military regime knows how far Lagos State have come.

Lagos could have not gotten to the level it is right now if the wrong people have been ruling the state. Rivers State is suppose to be competing with Lagos State, but it has been left behind.

I lived in Rivers and Lagos State in the 90's, so I fully know what am talking about

Do you have any idea of how much that was in 1999. Lagos has always been Lagos. I don’t know why you always give the accolades to BAT.
Everything you mentioned was a phenomenal in Nigeria and wasn’t peculiar to Lagos alone and you and I knows they’ve also improved in every other states as well. Tinubu may have achieved more because he had more funds at his disposal. What was the IGR of other states when Lagos’ was 500m? Tinubu did nothing wonderful per se.

Let assumed someone has interner illness that people are not aware of. Accidentally, you hit the person with a stick and he died in the process, who will police arrest? Who will they say that killed the person?

What do you mean, if the person was sick, is there any evidence even if the sickness was terminal was going to kill such person at that moment you hit him with stick. Of course na you kill the person.

Oga,we are saying the same thing, albeit, in a slightly different way nau.
If Judas wasn't kept alive and chance didn't lead him to crossing paths with Jesus, then will he have been picked as a disciple? So that's what I outlined too. The lady I tagged knows what I was talking about- we had a chat about predestination.
Now I hope you get my message.

Maybe I do but he’s heart did not love money so much.

PaulOtl:
@MumEmdy
Ok for instance, let's use this old thread as a case study on the predestination things we were earlier on chatting about.
Shey, on the surface level you would think that Judas was betraying Jesus just for the money?
But this topic has brought another angle to it- What if all he was doing was fulfilling prophecy? God's words will never return to him void. Shey someone had to get the job done? To take the fall? Then can we say that it's was predetermined? Predestined for a man (most likely a man that woman) to be used to fulfill that part of betraying Jesus? Was Judas predestined or it could have been any other man at the time? Hmmmm...it begs for pondering. Interesting isn't it? Hehe..I'm smiling here just putting it all into perspective.

Now my thoughts, and based in the little wisdom (I think) I have is that, God has preseen all these events even in heaven before they were acted out on earth. He has seen the end from the end. He has searched the heart of men and seen who is most suitable of a certain role to play. Who is wicked, who is very kind at heart, and who is brave, etc.....God found them all as they were developing, growing. You know he is everlasting nau.
So he saw that Judas will be born as a child, grew up, somehow by chance and time get to meet Jesus. God saw that his heart worshipped money more than anything else. Did God cause him to love money that much? No. God is not wicked. But God allowed it to be out of freewill. So, he kept Judas alive all through the years as he sojourned through life, God didn't let him die in an accident or via murder. He was allowed to live till the appointment period (where he will meet and betray Christ) He was not the only candidate for the position of the greatest betrayer in history, but maybe through God's wisdom, He saw that this Judas of a man is the best amongst all the potential betrayers. His own heart is far gone away from me (from God) and God has seen that he will by time and chance get to cross paths with Jesus and his other disciples. Thus, he allowed him to lead his own self down the road to destruction. And off Judas went, going to his destruction without really knowing he would overly regret it.
Predestination I believe is a real phenomenon. But there's always twist and turns to it, but not in all cases.
Like Pharoe of Egypt had to play that part in the Exodus of he Israelites from Egypt, abi? If you read through, you will ever see where God said that 'i made his heart more hardened towards the Israelites, that he wouldn't allow the go". This should tell us something, right??
So, he had been preselected for this role and though he was king and occupied an enviable rank, he was te most unfortunate of them. His heart was evil and God allowed him to ascend to become king in order to make an example out of him...To ridicule him, and finally destroy him(the sea swallowed him and his chariots, bla bla..)
I hope you got something out of this my enumerations o? There's a lot of wisdom that we need to discover, and it's through God we can get them...I want to know more mysteries and why tis and that is allowed to happen...Gonna be an interesting journey as I grow up older. It helps to even pass time too...lol
Plus you feel you're being carried along wit what God is trying to achieve, is achieving and is teaching is through these life occurrences that we sometimes don't understand......yet.

Sigh..! I don talk wella..but I'm glad I did . I even learned something myself, whilst at it. U see..

If Judas’ heart loved money so much, why is it not on record in the Bible of his other exploits as regarding money or do you think there were no other opportunities before that of Jesus or maybe they were not recorded. Besides Jesus picked Judas to be among his disciples, take it or leave it Judas only played a role he was destined and made to play by God.

He did the two but more of fulfilling the scripture. And for our information Satan did not use him for anything, rather God used him to fulfill the scripture. If not him then it would still be someone else. If Judas did not betray Jesus may be Jesus wouldn’t have died yet and me and you will not be saved yet (according to the Bible). Remember he later returned the money and said he wasn’t doing again but it was too late, he was just an instrument in the hands of God and not devil because he only played a part in what God had already destined.
Adam and Eve were used by Satan against God because Sin wasn’t in the plan of God for man but we can’t say the same for Judas.
