Wondering why the name Jesus is spreading all over social media? You will get all the answers here. Welcome to Thav TV.
Lets get down to details. The popular nigerian gospel song writer and singer Nathaniel Bassey on his instagram "nathanielblow" posted a art gaphic of Jesus and asked his followers to display it on their profile picture at 12noon (west african time). He directed, "Can we make this our profile picture at 12 noon on all your social media handles? And also share as a post on your timeline and as your story. And for the rest of the day huh And also declare that name into the atmosphere ! JESUS! Let the world ask what is going on. And we’ll tell them - JESUS IS GOING ON! Can we do this? Tag others ! The singer further posted "JESUS over Nigeria! Peace be still ! IN JESUS’ name. This seem to be connected to the catholic church massacre last sunday where over 25 worshippers were killed by possibly fulani bandits. The assailants shot and killed worshippers outside and inside the holy ground. The name jesus has flooded social media handles within minutes, The general oversea of Redeemed christain church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye was among the first to spread the message Jesus.

Investment › The Money Culture In Our Society by shimolv(op): 10:33pm On Jun 05, 2022
https://thavmedia.com/the-money-culture-in-our-society/

How the “money for hand back for ground” Nigerian parlance had so pervaded every fabric of our Nigeria Culture, is frightening.

“The money for hand back for ground” slangs depicts that, for any Service to be rendered by an individual to any other person(s) or organisation, money must exchange hands. Even if the service is one’s duty and responsibility for which he or she, has sworn an oath to uphold and in many instance, is being paid to offer.
Whether it is the civil servant doing his/her legitimate job of offering service, or it is the Policeman securing lives and property, or a Teacher/Lecturer mandated to impart knowledge and breed intellectuals for the society, or it is the Aviation worker at our Airpots, almost everyone seems to demand money from people they are offering service to, even though they will be remunerated.

What happened to the virtue of selflessness, goodness, integrity, dignity and pride of adding value to someone’s life or to the nation at large.

What happened to the devotion and commitment to Nation building and development?
Why is our society not entrenched in the “all for one and one for all” ideology, that has seen nations rise from obscurity to becoming an economic hub in the world?

The money culture in our society is predicated on greed and frivolity that has eroded contentment and simplicity in our communal living.

Respect and Recognition in the society accorded to only persons of great wealth as against, to persons across all social strata, who has contributed selflessly and immensely to nation building, has promoted the money culture in our society.

Recently in the Nigeria Political sphere, we see the decadence of the money culture displayed at the Primaries of Political Parties being held across the Federation. Accusations and counter accusations of money being shared to delegates to curry their votes is gaining ground in the News space.

Rumour has it that, one of the reasons former Governor Peter Obi, withdrew from the Presidential race of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) is because of his disgust for the demands of delegates for money for their votes.
Some media reports has it that, Peter Obi has said there is no wisdom in sharing his hard earned money to people, simply because he wants to offer his services in contributing to Nation building.

Also, the veteran Social Critic and Human Rights activists, Senator Shehu Sani, had decried the political ritual of paying money to be elected. According to him,”It is inconsistent with my ideological and moral beliefs”.

He had said he would not give money to any delegate and when the Kaduna State PDP held its Primaries yesterday(26th May, 2022) he got two votes. Yet according to him, over three hundred delegates called claiming they voted for him.

What is the difference between kidnappers who collects ransom money for the lives of their victims and delegates who collects money for votes?

Will there be a nation where citizen’s can live or be governed in years to come, if we continue in this “money for hand back for ground” culture in our society?

Isn’t it high time we collectively do away with this culture and build a sane society for generations yet unborn?

Money has wings, it flies. It is insatiable. Its satisfaction last only at its last accumulation.
Its value ends at the last breathe of its owner(that is if inflation does not devalue it while he/she is alive).

But legacies built on sound values, selflessness and vision, last for many generations. Our society must imbibe these culture to thrive.

Politics › Owo Church Killing Was A Direct Attack On Governor Rotimi Akeredolu - Afenifere by shimolv(op): 9:04pm On Jun 05, 2022
St Francis Catholic Church, Owo in Ondo state was attacked by unmasked assailants just as church service ended. About 50 worshippers are feared dead. Eye witnesses has revealed that the attackers ran the church riot with guns and dynamites. The first victim of the attack was an ice cream seller near the gate. Owo is the hometown to Governor Rotimi Akeredolu. The governor has been vocal about the 2023 general elections, clamouring that power shifts to southern Nigeria. Some commentators and political analyst are of the opinion that this attack was carried out by northern extremists who found the governor’s remark as offensive. The Pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere, has condemned the attack on the Catholic Church in Owo town, Ondo State. The secretary of the organisation said the incident was a direct attack on the Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, as well as Yoruba land.
