Execute order to demolish the building of any erring citizen? can you show us a copy of such order? dokie: In this case their wont be karma for Wike. Wike says there is an Executive order in place backing up his actions. The only Karma he's going to get is karma for disobeying his oath of office as a governor.
On this case, the hotelier goofed. Simple instruction: Don't operate for the period, if you do, we bring down your hotel. The man goes ahead to open and the governor decides to fulfill his promise and you want his head for it.
Everybody who disobeys laws should be willing to face the consequence of his/her actions. I am not saying this because i Obey all the laws. But i know that if i disobey and i am caught, i wont start whining. My Christian faith wouldn't even allow me whine since i cant even take my case to God in the first instance.
When we were in the university, there was a lecturer (Reverend) who begins to wail once he catches t a student cheating in an exam hall. His reason for wailing being that the parents of the student have wasted their money thus far since he must ensure that student gets rusticated even if the student is a final year student. And he does it regardless of the pressure he faces from other lecturers. For this reason, he was considered to be a very wicked man.But the truth is that the man was simply carrying out or implementing the laws governing the university. |

No, a right-thinking governor will close down the hotel and fine them, not to demolish it. Wouldn't the former have done the same thing? Will you employ those who have lost their jobs to the demolition? will you feed the family of the owner? If they go into crime and attack you and your family tomorrow, who do you blame? He was not protecting anyone, rather exposing them to violence from the angry enemies he's making! Peterobi90: The Governor was acting right to protect not just himself but you and myself aswell. |

Don't worry, Karma is already at your door. People will gather to say the same for you. The count down has began. A governor does not have the power to do what he did unless you can show me in the constitution! Peterobi90: Well I dont see anything wrong... he clearly made his warning specifically on hotels, you are based in Lagos but opened your hotel to run in PH because you have lab rats to test on..

Obasi use the term " they" Sarki used the word " they" came to watch me in Poland " They called me later to ask for money" " they"can't be used for a single person! Keshi can't be the sole decider of the choice of players, it's not POSSIBLE in Nigeria. Do you know what it took Rohr to have such powers (which I still doubt)? Do you think a local coach will have such powers at that time? For him not wanting a backroom staff, to get such request granted, I am a bit certain he must have let go of a lot of powers to those who employed him. If Keshi was 100% in charge of picking players, there is no way Amokachi will frame ignorance of this fact! How can you know he was the one that rejected the backroom staff offer and not know who picked all the players? barackodam: D Amokachi Assistant coach to Keshi at 2014 WC
"Brown(Ideye) for me was one player that I regret that we did not take to the World Cup in 2014,"
"Hundred percent I didn't know how he didn't make that list," he added. "I never saw it coming that he didn't make the list till when the list came out and we found out." "We ended up going to the World Cup with players that even me I don't even know."
Okay, Let's hear from Pinnick
Q: Was the team to the World Cup in Brazil not ambitious enough?
A: I do not have anything against Keshi. He has done so well for Nigeria. He remains the first Nigerian to win the Nations Cup as a player and a coach... Football has gone beyond having a coaching crew on the bench. The trend is now to have the technical backroom staff, peopled by expert coaches, who win matches from the bench... That is why nearly all the teams at the World Cup have the technical backroom staff. But Nigeria did not have that and that was because Keshi did not want it. He thought that they were going to take his job away and we all saw in Brazil that it could have been very different if we had such technical experts in the backroom, advising Keshi during match days or even before.
People had a mindset before going to the World Cup. What was Keshi's plan at the World Cup? Was it to win the trophy? If his plans were to win the World Cup or develop our team for the future, we would have said yes, we tried. If he wanted to win the World Cup, he would have gone with Obafemi Martins, Ikechukwu Uche, and Ogbuke Obasi because they are all match winners. I watched Obasi in action for his Schalke during my trip to Germany and saw how he laid the assist that led to the first goal and scored a beautiful goal, which made me call Keshi to ask if he was watching the game and taking note of Obasi's contributions and he said yes. But I was shocked when these guys were not included in the team to Brazil for the World Cup. Obasi was hot this season.
Okay, I'm done.
All of you asking for their names to be named. Apparently, Keshi was totally and solely in charge of his squad(I'm not counting NFF o), to the extent that even his assistants don't know how he picks his players Just like all the loots being discovered abroad are being swept under the name of the dead Abacha, criminals and corrupt people in power will prefer Keshi's name is used for this cover-up. Only a dead man can't defend himself. (Not saying he's clean 100% but he can't be the " they" they keep mentioning). Until we start mentioning names, just like Joebie said, we will keep typing. |

Nodogragra4me: The statement Jesus was the tithe collector is a manner of speaking .... Jesus referred to himself as the Lord of the harvest and therefore wasn't Lund by the laws governing the harvest. When Abraham paid tithe to Melchizedek, the King of Peace didn't pay to another because he is the ultimate collector of the tithe ... Heb 7 says without contradiction, the LESS is bless of the higher ... King of Righteousness was higher than Abraham , the father of the Levites This has been proven [b]NOT [/b]to be tithe because it was one-off. tithe is not one-off according to Deu 14 vs 22 or is your tithe paying one-off? So repeating this line multiple times won't make it what it is not. Nodogragra4me: How did Abraham come to have the sense to give a tenth of this spoil of war to the Priest? Hundreds of years before God made it a law. Hope you have seen that the oldest Bible's from Catholic public to duoy reihms all calls it tithe .. Bible that are over a houssnd years old called it tithe not five hundred years old. ...Bible's written from manuscript not translations of existing works called it tithe No one asked him to do it, he didn't wake up in the morning looking for a priest to give, it was by accident that he met the priest and if he had not won the war he went to, he would not have dashed the priest 10th of the SPOILS OF WAR. he was not threatened by anyone to do it nor reminded every Sunday that his blessing was attached to doing it! After that day, nothing was recorded of him repeating such feat. HE WAS EVEN ALREADY RICH before that encounter, so his covenant with God to be very rich was not from that act but from his obedience during his son's trial! (sacrificing Isaac) Nodogragra4me: Jesus Christ could not have made tithe a teaching when it was already in practice. He only therefore made an update to it practice once and for all. Do it in this order .
Jesus came to preach the kingdom of power not tithe ... He didn't preach anything but the kingdom and power and then gave the Holy Spirit to further that kingdom ... Tithe was already a way of life amongst the people .. Matt 23:23 So how come we have no chapter or even a verse showing that early Christians paid tithe, yet we have other forms of giving Jesus preached and the disciples practiced? Jesus paid tax but no record of him paying tithe, why? So if Jesus did not bother to preach about tithe but on how to make heaven, how come you and most pastors in Nigeria preach it weekly? some even threaten more tithers with hell and curses, why? Since I see you dodging questions that you know will expose you, I will ask again: Does not paying your kind of tithe stop you from making heaven? |

Meaning if it's 1500 worded article, you will be getting #1 per word but once it's 2000 words per word, you end up getting #0.65 per word.

Did you reread what you wrote? I don't want us to just keep running in a circle, hence the reason I am just going ask questions based on your own statements Jesus didn't pay tithe because he was a tithe collector yet never collected any tithe all through his stay on earth? Second, did Abraham give the 10th from his own properties, normal business, or farm produce or from what he gained from going to war? 10th of spoils of war is NOT SAME with 10th of your earnings, increase, produce, so note this! How come he only did this once and never again? was it because there were no priests in the land after that meeting? At the time Abraham did what he did, there were nothing like the 12 tribes of Israel, and God had not entered any covenant with the tribe of Levi, so how then you tag such tithe when it was nonexistent? Why did the apostles and disciples not take or pay tithes nor preached it? The so-called "Abrahamic kind of tithe you are paying was commanded to you by who, when, and how?" can you show us who started doing that?I can see that you have ignored plenty of my questions, yet talking about things outside the real tithe and what it entails. You did not define tithe, nor define who to give, where to give, and who qualifies to collect such. Lastly, does not paying tithe stop you from entering heaven?Nodogragra4me: What is the difference between six and half a dozen... ..where is the difference.
"And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all." (KJV'1611+, Genesis 14:20) "and blessed be [the] (most) high God, by whom defending (thee), (thine) enemies be betaken into thine hands. And Abram gave tithes of all things to him.

The above are some of the oldest versions of the bible .... whether it was called tithe or tenth is of no importance but that Abraham not told by anybody including God gave tithe or one tenth of his new possessions to the king who happens to also bear titles reserved till date for Jehovah God ....... king of Peace and King of Righteousness.
We are not told why Abraham gave him but that he met a king outside of the Levite’s ...a king who is not a Leviticus and gave him tithe without the Bible recording that it was the practice but he gave him tithe of all his new acquisitions , his new additions . ... we don’t know if that was his practice EVERYTIME new Additions came to him ....whether he offered them to God as a sacrifice . But one thing is clear , it was practiced as a way of life by Abraham , how we he learnt it , before it became a law four hundred years afterward, we don't know
Tithe as a law didn’t extend to christians for there was no Christianity when the law was given. When He spoke of tithe again it was so meat ....essentials ... may be in his house . This is the tithe that the church leaders were practicing when Jesus came on the scene. No Levite was mentioned when Jesus came on the scene as prophets and law men had already taken over the scene.
The two prominent sect and teachers were the Sadducee and the Pharisee backed by the lawyers . They all were paying tithe so that meat may abound in the temple . As they got new mint and comings they brought tithe of it. Jesus alluded to it ...every thing new in their life’s merited tithe but they were short on the justice , mercy seat. Jesus told them so when he said to them that as much as their tithe made meat abound there was a greater matter that they always left undone and they should include it and pursue it with the same passion as they offered the church their tithe
You asked why Jesus didn’t pay tithe and I have to say this: Jesus Christ was the tithe collector and owner .. he received it from Abraham as a king. The title of that king is not known to belong to anyone else ... king of peace and righteousness. He was not of the order of the Levite’s but he received it from the father or grand great father of the Levite’s , Abraham . He is the one acknowledging the tithe as Heb 7:8 stated. At any rate , tithe is on additions and we siding read where he went to war, farmed or had new additions but he was rich and self sufficient. Tax was for the government of the esrth run by the political leadership and tithe was for the heavens government administered by Jesus as the head of the church .. Jesus demonstrated that nobody was too big or spiritusl to flout government order on their incomes
We are not under law. Hallelujah. We exited the law or had Jesus fulfilled all that was needed for us to able to enter into the presence of God. Jesus didn’t exempt us from our responsibilities of ensuring that the church runs smoothly ... he asked his disciple when he sent them out for mission works without purse if they lacked anything and they said they lacked nothing .... people they ministered to certainly you must have met their needs. It didn’t rain from heaven.
The tithe we pay today is outside the law . It is Abrahamic order of tithe that there may be essential in the house of God. Melchizedek was introduced as Priest of the most high needing the meats ... he was not a Levite’s but even higher than them because they could not appropriate the title he went by ... king of peace and righteousness. We are of Abraham not the Levite’s and we are paying our tithe on every new additions to Melchizedek, the king of peace and righteousness, who lives forever. |

Nodogragra4me: For you to state that Abraham didn't pay tithe is to tell the Bible that it is wrong in it records of Abraham encounter with Melchizedek. The Bible says he gave him tithe of all and this happened even before God made tithing a law . This means that for Abraham to have paid tithe and for God to have declared it a laws the people must have know about tithe for God didn't explain tithe to them ... He just made it a law ... You cannot have a law that is not understood otherwise such a law won't command obedience ... God just mentioned in his statement on tithe by declaring that tithing of all your blessing is now a must ... They didn't ask him what tithe meant ... They already were doing it at a personal level . Another lie: The bible said he gave him a tenth [/b]of the [b]spoils of war not tithe or of all as you wrote. Here are the bible passages : " Genesis 14:17-24 Lexham English Bible (LEB) Abram Meets Melchizedek 17 After his return from defeating Kedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the Valley of the King). 18 And Melchizedek, the king of Salem, brought out bread and wine. (He was the priest of God Most High). 19 And he blessed him and said, “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Maker of heaven and earth. 20 And blessed be God Most High who delivered your enemies into your hand.” And he[a] gave to him a tenth of everything. [/b]21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, but the possessions take for yourself.” 22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have raised my hand to Yahweh, God Most High, Maker of heaven and earth, 23 that neither a thread nor[b] a thong of a sandal would I take from all that belongs to you, that you might not say, ‘I made Abram rich.’ 24 Nothing besides what[c] the servants have eaten and the share of the men who went out with me will I take. Let Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre take their share.”
Heb 7 vs 2:
[b]to whom also Abraham apportioned a tenth part of all the spoils, was first of all, by the translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then also king of Salem, which is king of peace If you do not even know what and how he did what he did, how then can you practise it well? God did not make it a law there and when he did in Deut, it was not for Christians but for 11 tribes in Israel towards the 12th tribe of Israel (Levi) If what I wrote above are lies, quote your bible reference as evidence just like I have done. Nodogragra4me: Tithe didn't come by God's law. It was already practiced by Abraham meaning he got to know of it. The Bible didn't call it any other name but tithe .. you cannot claim to know more than the Bible
Jesus never spoke about the law when he addressed the Pharisee and leaders of the church ... He already knew them as teachers of the law ...... He spoke to them in regards to the order acceptable to him and heaven ...undo the injustice in the land that is in your power to remedy and then pay your tithe ... Here s the portion .....
Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices--mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law--justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.
I did not add anything to it .... Without neglecting the former tells you that it was a continuous exercise ... If they paid once they would have done it long before Jesus was born into their midst . They weren't doing eye service but letting other affairs in their hands to suffer to focus on tithing .. Jesus wasn't responsible for the tithe collection so there is no eyes service involved when he has no share of it and he wasn't standing in front of any tithe collection box . It was a practice in the church ...Tithing is a continuous exercise as long as your mintnis not a once and for all provision.
Jesus did not make tithe a command but he didn't abolish it nor denounced it by any of his statement on tithing ... As a matter of fact , heb 7:8 says that tithe are collected here on earth by men who will die but the records are with him that lives forever Abraham did not tithe, he only gave a one-off offering not from his belongings but from the spoils of war, I proved this to you already, can you show me a bible quote that disapproved what I said? The one the bible called tithe is in Deuteronomy 14 vs 22:28 I will quote it here: "Tithes 22 Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. 23 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the Lord your God always. 24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the Lord your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the Lord will choose to put his Name is so far away), 25 then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose. 26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice. 27 And do not neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own. 28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns, 29 so that the Levites (who have no allotment or inheritance of their own) and the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied, and so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands." Is the above same as what Abraham did? Abraham was returning from war when he met the priest, are you saying he went to war with his belongings that he now gave 10th to the priest or it was what he was coming from the war with that he gave a one-off offering from?Yes, Jesus reminded the law keepers of what the law says, are you a law keeper? are you under the law? is Christianity under the law which is the old testament or under grace which is the new testament? Did Jesus or any of his disciples pay tithe? if yes, where and when?Jesus did not condemn it just as he didn't condemn Judaism as a religion because he was yet to fulfill the law, yet he never for once paid tithe, if it was so important to Christians, how come the bible only recorded where JESUS PAID TAX and decided not to record where he paid TITHE?Are you under the law or under grace? if you're still under the old testament, are you following all the laws of the old testament including this one in Deu 15 especially the quoted? " The Year for Canceling Debts15 At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts. 2 This is how it is to be done: Every creditor shall cancel any loan they have made to a fellow Israelite. They shall not require payment from anyone among their own people, because the Lord’s time for canceling debts has been proclaimed. 3 You may require payment from a foreigner, but you must cancel any debt your fellow Israelite owes you. 4 However, there need be no poor people among you, for in the land the Lord your God is giving you to possess as your inheritance, he will richly bless you, 5 if only you fully obey the Lord your God and are careful to follow all these commands I am giving you today. 6 For the Lord your God will bless you as he has promised, and you will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. You will rule over many nations but none will rule over you. 7 If anyone is poor among your fellow Israelites in any of the towns of the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward them. 8 Rather, be openhanded and freely lend them whatever they need. 9 Be careful not to harbor this wicked thought: “The seventh year, the year for canceling debts, is near,” so that you do not show ill will toward the needy among your fellow Israelites and give them nothing. They may then appeal to the Lord against you, and you will be found guilty of sin. 10 Give generously to them and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to. 11 There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your fellow Israelites who are poor and needy in your land." Think my comments and questions thoroughly before attempting to answer them. |

Nodogragra4me: Sorry brother but you don't desire an answer because it will be a repeat of virtually all I have written here concerning tithe on this very page .. go and look for them ... They answer your question .... But to add ..
Abraham paid tithe even without any prompting. Why did he pay and how did he know about tithing to have carried it out?
If tithe was not a continuous affairs Jesus would not have told the church leaders that they pay tithe even to the most mundane items in their lives ... Matt 23:23 You can't run away sir no matter how you try to turn it to a mud fight if truly you are a student of the bible. Don't direct me to things that are not specific, you will do justice to your belief if you can answer my questions as lined up. Abraham did not pay tithe because a one-off offering is not qualified to be called a tithe according to Deuteronomy 14 (This is where the law of tithing came about), not even the time of Abraham nor Jacob. Jesus told the Pharisees that they are doing eyeservice because they were not doing according to the law then, but that didn't mean Jesus was endorsing tithing for Christians because there was no Christianity then and Jesus never paid tithe nor his disciples. When he died and ascended to heaven, his disciples and apostles that went about building churches never took tithe from anyone and was never recorded anywhere they took or paid tithe because their MASTER Jesus never taught them to but they did all other commands Jesus gave to them. The 2 comments there are to answer your 2 comments. I am waiting for your answers to my previous questions sir! |

Nodogragra4me: Tithing was done outisede the lawbefore God made it a command .... Gen 14:20 .... Nobody told Abraham to pay tithe but he did meaning it must have been a practice know to them
In Leviticus 27:30 God announced that tithe was his share of everything he had given unto you. It was to be seaprated and given to him through the Levites who were his appointed priest
The Levite were to offer a tenth of the same tithe as offering to God .
Today everyone redeemed by the blood of the lamb is redeemed a priest and a king and the primary duty of the priest is to offer sacrifice to God which includes our tithes which is used to advance God's kingdom here on earth .
Levites are priest . Rev 1:6 ....Rev 5:10 Nodogragra4me: No. Just a word addict ... I am governed by the truth I see from the word You are not governed by the truth but by half truth and hearsay. Not really the word of God sir. Can you truthfully answer these questions? What is tithe? quote the originating bible chapters of tithe Who are to pay tithes? quote bible verses for this Before Abraham met the priest, was he already rich and did he ever do what he did meeting the priest? What did he pay with? What Abraham paid, how does it qualify as tithe? After that incident, did it continue? Who else continously paid such? Who are the levites? Does any Nigerian pastor qualify to be a levite? I will wait for your answers before continuing further. |

I don't call mine tithe because I am not bound by it as a christ-follower.
I give mine to myself, my family, my loved ones, and sometimes to people I don't know.
As for offerings, I give when I attend a physical church according to my conviction and the strength of my wallet. |

tuzle: Don't u think lock down in just some selected states is kind of useless, for example ogun state is on lock down but Lagos is not, after the lock down at ogun, people will still move from Lagos to ogun thereby carrying the virus back to ogun. Doesn't that kills the motive of the lock down how will they move the virus to ogun from lagos when they can't get into ogun due to the border lockdown |
