Morning everyone,

Someone actually sent me this to confirm how real or fake this is.
According to this letter, he has being offered an appointment to the Nigeria Custom service, he said he paid an initial sum 15k to get the replacement form.

Now,the appointment letter was sent to him yesterday and he's being told to go pay an additional 50k after which he will then pay the 65k stated in the letter.

I had to erase the passport photograph placed on the right side and the person's name.

Is this a scam ?

Yes, it is scam. Any job requiring you to pay for training uniform, ID card, etc is 99% scam, especially before resumption of duty. It is the duty of any organization to issue ID cards and uniforms to their employees at no cost, even the additional training of such employees is at the cost of the organization.
He/she has been scammed of the initial 15k and they intend to get more from them.

People shouldn't pay faceless job vendors online to get job. That's scam.

What is the source of this information?

I though agree with his position to an extent, especially for the Igbos. This explains why they have always worked against Igbos presiding over Nigeria or being independent. They understand that they will ruin their indirect colonialism. So, to safeguard their interest in Nigeria is for the Igbo man to be sidelined and placed on watchlist.

Please house , how safe is I- invest app? Someone referred me to it for purchasing treasury bills!!

I emailed Security and Exchange Commission with enquiry on the App and the people behind it. They responded promptly and even called me on phone to clarify that whereas they can attest to the integrity of the firm behind the App, they were not aware of the App used for TB. I was contented and went ahead to try with an initial investment of N100,000. As at now, I can view the investment and interest generated anytime and any day.
I discovered that after 30 days, I am able to see a link to resell the investment, though I have not done so and the investment is yet to mature. But, my experience so far is positive and I am gradually developing high confidence on it.

See screenshots from the App below. I have risked this amount to test it.

It'll be a worthy investment if there won't at any point in next 2 years be an inflation equal or greater than the 11.3% interest payable quarterly. The decision to invest had to be weighed viz a viz the eventual value of money at the end of the term.

With salary increase in view, there is the likelihood of higher inflation rate over the period in view.

It doesn't look profitable.

Many people have been decieved into terrible marriages or prevented from marrying a good spouse in the name of "My Pastor said" or "GOD said".

I believe there is so much hypocrisy surrounding this matter. Lets face it..how come people don't seek GOD's face or ask a pastor for confirmation if the prospective spouse is an extreme opposite of what they desire..?

How many educated ladies will bother to ask GOD or pastor to confirm if a known armed robber is the one should such woos for marriage?
How many Guys will go to GOD to confirm for them if a popular LovePeddler is the one? But often times we tend to fool ourselves going to a pastor or going to bother GOD to tell us if a seemingly desirous prospective partner comes our way and i tend to wonder.

In the entire scriptures, there were only two instances where GOD expressly gave a clear direction concerning choosing a spouse and in those two instances, it was a very difficult choice and that was when God commanded the prophet Hosea, “Go, take to yourself a wife of whoredom and have children of whoredom.Hosea 1:2. And the second instance was when GOD sked Joseph to marry Mary who was already pregnant.

GOD respects our freedom of choice and for the Christians, we are encouraged to be yoked with fellow Believers and as far as GOD is concerned, A man has the sole responsibility to find a wife and once he finds one and marries her, he obtains favour from GOD. Proverbs 18:22.

The summary of this piece is that we should stop deceiving ourselves by saying 'Prophet said, My pastor said, Alfa said...' because in the real sense, it is our mind telling us what we want to hear. You can rely on your intuition or peculiar signs that gives you confirmation but we should stop hiding behind those words 'GOD SAID'

As a man,it is your paramount duty to search so pray to GOD for guidance and as a lady, pray to GOD that the type of man you desire finds you.

Just as we can see from the scriptures,if GOD ever tells you to marry a certain person then it is most certain that the choice of spouse will be very difficult for you to accept and this is the way you will know that indeed, it is GOD's choice for you

I hope this makes sense.

My brother I love your post, but you generalised it and used "GOD SAID" inappropriately.

I am a living example of God's grace and directive in marriage. Note that my case is not to be used to generalise too, because not all will receive such grace.

For mention, I am in my 6th year in marriage and can tell you that there is no better marriage than mine. �

When I first planned to propose to a girl whom I thought I loved, an Angel of God visited me in a vision and clearly warned me not to. He told me to ask Him when I become ready for it (clearly I was not, it was a peer influence) and that he will come to show me. Eh! �

About two years later, I prayed to God earnestly and He sent him to me again. He came and showed me my wife sitting with her mother standing behind her. I objected in the vision and he asked me why. I quickly told him that I loved fair ladies. �
He laughed at my ignorance and told me "that is what you want, but not what you need". He further told me many things about the lady he was showing me. � Thank you Jesus.

Can't write half my encounter here, but just a few more lines. I initiated the relationship after over a year or more. I soon ran out without a reasonable issue. Within the following year, I never called her on phone for once and never spoke with her. Fully determined not to go back to her. But, God is merciful.

I tried initiating other relationships, each of which he warned me not to try. He even visited people (who entirely knew nothing about what I was passing through) in revelations and sent them to come and warn me about the intending relationships. Note that I never even entered any other one. Just intentions of heart, still within me.

When I prayed and asked Him to reveal the right person to some people who knew nothing about us, He did. A colleague at work (he didn't know I was battling a choice issue) came and told me a revelation and how he was shown a lady who was supposed to be my wife. He described her without mincing words. (My wife wears no make-up. She is dark. She was wearing a low-cut until our wedding) She had unique features with which she can be described. When I brought pictures, he pointed at the person he saw. An old woman (my mother's elder sister who visited her) got exactly the same and described her to my mom. Wow! Not an imagination. I had several convincing interactions with God.

Today, I am enjoying my marriage. I couldn't have asked for anything better. My marriage can inspire you, if you see us. But, you know what? Till date, we have not had a child and we are living gloriously in harmony. We have passed through many hurdles and are soaring higher. Day by day we experience grace unspeakable. We will have our own children and bring them up in the fear of God, but that will be at God's own time too.

I narrated this little to tell you that God still directs marriages. But not all will receive such grace. I don't subscribe to my pastor said. That is closer to hell, these days. But, if a man has Christ and the Holy Spirit, he will know the leading of God and the voice of the Holy Spirit. Nothing can be better than following God's leading. I am a witness.

At 30, after marriage and have remained faithful to my wife for the past 5+ years. I can tell you, it gives the best since of responsibility to be chaste with a lot of benefits to you and your family.
The confidence and trust has no bounds.
The love is raw and pure.
No fear of STDs from outside.
Peace of mind and in the family.
You can avoid unnecessary blackmails.
No hidden affairs.

The list is unending.

I encourage young people to avoid premarital sex and immorality.

Op, the information you provided above is not absolutely correct.
For example, take note of below;

Friday, 20th April, 2018:
SC5052 Chemistry 2(Essay)-- 2hrs 2:00pm - 4:00pm
SC5051 Chemistry 1(Obj.)-- 1hr 4:00pm - 5:00pm
The examination will be delayed for 30 minutes to 1 hour because of Muslim faithfuls.

Not correct too. Subjects slated for Friday, 20th April have been swapped with those for 10th April. By that, the Chemistry 2 and 1 will now be written on Tuesday, 10th April.

Misleading information

With this kind of unity and coherence among the South-East governors, there is hope for the region.
We need to commend them for such a noble idea and continue to pray for them to actualize it.
If they do, expect greater synergy and progress in the region. There will be healthy competition and ultimately progress.

Talent!

Discover yours and become a celebrity.

Nigerians it is time to replace all these men who do not represent your interest in power, but fight over selfish ambitions.

Use your voting power.

Look at this fool, coming here to throw shades, do u av have work to do at all?? Stupid cunt

Boy, I forgive you.

Logically, the baby is a citizen of the first country on which he/she lands. The period of time on the air can be likened to the period in the womb. The first country the child knows and belongs to is the country where the plane landed first.

Although it depends on the law of the nation.

Shame!

Be bold to admit that you yielded yourself an instrument to the devil.

The Door of salvation is still open for you.

Hmmm u forget the pastor isn't the church... He's human like you, so open ur eyes, he's prone to the lust of the flesh too, serve God nd not ur pastor, did d politicians make up d Skype call she had with the pastor, which face was clearly shown there

My dear, you are exhibiting low knowledge and IQ on public space. If you don't know that faces can be imposed on images, voice mimiced, and technology used to blackmail people.

Beware of throwing stones at people you don't know on social media.

When you grow up, remember to go through your childish posts and make amends.

All those who joined to curse the innocent pastor on various social media can now see how much they were also manipulated. You can see how much you were used against Christianity. You can see how much of an Antichrist you became just because of a blackmail.

This kind of blackmail has been succeeding against Christianity in Nigeria. They have been coming in different forms. They were used even in 2015 general election.

And guess what? So called Christians are the ones to carry such blackmails and blow them out of proportion, casting aspersions on the body of Christ. People who have never preached to a perishing soul will jump out to magnify the blackmail on the church.

Jesus, your word is true. The gates of hell shall never prevail against the church.

No wonder why they have been pampering issues with the president.

Hope that now they have the immunity, they can step up their actions and act like representatives of the masses.

The question is vague. The interpretation of what you wrote is not clear.

Each number on the left multiplied by 3 minus 5 will give you the corresponding number on the right

I can't see where Abaribe tried to cast aspersions on the FG in his remarks.

What are they afraid of?

Is impeachment of non-performing president not constitutional?

They must have skeleton in their cupboard that they are trying to hide and secure reelection.

NIGERIANS, REPLACE THESE PEOPLE WITH YOUR VOTES. They are not representing your interest.

It's clear that the Senate is afraid of confronting the president. This is largely because they have skeleton in their cupboard and are more concerned about coming back to the Senate than the good of the nation.

I wish people will use their votes to wipe out all of them from governance.

The Senate we had in 1999 was better, even when almost all of them were first timers in the Senate. We can make the change. STOP INACTIVE, NEPOTIC, NON-PERFORMING AND FEARFUL PEOPLE.

From my understanding of Obj's letter, he is calling for a new coalition "Coalition for Nigeria, CN".

Whereas we have to salvage the situation in Nigeria today, does it mean we can not get a good candidate from any of the existing political parties?
Does it mean we must be looking for new coalition (party) every three year period? Because, definitely the new coalition will still produce people of dubious character.

Why not look for the right candidates and support them wherever they may be?

It's not an insult to advise a friend in an honest way.

No one is denying Buhari the right to run for a 2nd, but it will be more honourable for him not to run than to be disgraced. We all should also know that from Mr. Buhari's anticidence, he doesn't accept defeat honourably. He may not act like GEJ in handing over to the opposition, if he is defeated. That may plung the country into a bigger crises. Hence, I believe that OBJ's advice for him not to run for a 2nd term is apt.

lonikit:
its not everyting dat strted from the begining are stil in practice nw. we know hw it started at the beginning but some persons did otherwise and God never punished them for marrying more than one.

the question is not how it was at the beginning. it is how scriptural it is to divorce one of ur wives bcus u got born again.

I appreciate your insistence on getting proper response. I can understand that you want follow the Bible as your standard. That is what it should be.

Now, consider the verse 9 of that Matthew 19 already quoted up there.

And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
Matthew 19:4‭, ‬9 KJV
https://bible.com/bible/1/mat.19.4-9.KJV

Emphasis on the red.
Here, Christ clearly stated that he who marries another, even after divorcing the first, commits ADULTERY. This implies that any relationship with a 2nd wife, apart from when the first is dead, is adultery. Come to think of it, if marrying another after divorcing the first is adultery, marrying another without divorcing the first is also adultery.
Yes! Someone got born again, but already has more than one wife, does it mean that continuing to have sexual relationship with the others is not adultery? It is. Yes, it is. When a man realizes his mistakes, repentance entails correcting then. But here, you may not be able to correct it absolutely. Still, you can not continue in adultery. You must stop all sexual relationships with all, except the first. At the same time, you must provide for the rest until they remarry, if they so wish. It is a price that has to be paid.
