I have a 42 year old brother who for over 18 years has been on hard drugs. He started this habit while in secondary school and couldn't finish tertiary education for same reason. Efforts made by the family to stop him from substance abuse and rehabilitate him at several occasions failed. Each time such effort is made, he recovers after a while but returns to the habit. Currently, he has become mentally deranged and there seems to be no solution at sight.

He has been admitted to different psychiatric hospitals on two occasions. At both times, he was treated and confirmed fit and sound to return to the society. The moment he was discharged, he quickly went back to his old ways and all the resources spent went into the drain. In one of the occasions, we were strongly advised to engage him as joblessness was one of the greatest problem causing the abuse. We got him engaged by securing a fantastic job which he also left after a week of working there. Other meaningful efforts geared towards engaging him to enable him to become occupied and start earning a living as a man also didn’t work out.

We have organised prayer sessions by powerful men of God, nothing has happened yet. I do want to sound like someone without faith. I strongly believe that our able God will make things beautiful at His time. However, the situation has gone out of control and we need to act fast.

These, amongst many, are some of the interventions already done by the family and we cannot fold our arms and watch people mock us in shame every day due to his abnormal activities in the community.

Now what he does is forcefully, take money from our aged mum, sell any family property at sight in exchange for money to buy his drugs. Beat my mum up at any slightest refusal to give him money. He has been jailed many times for committing several offences related to this habit, yet the problem persists. Maybe we have not applied the best approach?

I am calling on fellow Nairalanders to assist with solutions. I believe there are some of us here who may have experienced this problem in one way or the other, or have an advise to give to solve this lingering painful situation. Your personal or professional experience (s) may go a long way in salvaging this situation for us.

I believe a problem shared is a problem solved.

Hnmmm. Well, the family need to know the root cause of the problem before there can be a solution. Obviously this is a spiritual problem, and it has to be treated as such. Please take a step, the matter is not a rehab or psychiatric issue.

How much?

See beautiful ride. Poverty na bastard. Money is good.
May God bless me with plenty money

Abami eda

when God answer your call, Nigeria don better be that

I like this mode of Advert. Simple and straightforward

To me, there is a model always deployed in Managing epidemic. And everything you see happening now is a model once used to manage similar pandemic

Wao this is Elephant

Why not Google the reviews of the said washing machine?

People experiences all this symptoms even before Corona, Only test can state otherwise. Get tested if you are in doubt. Good luck

Aftermath of Corona may be worse. May God spare all of us economically.

Nigerians are not ready for steady electricity. Could you believe people still manipulate and bypass prepaid meters? Some don't even pay there bill at all. Not to even talk of the outrageous bill DISCO send out to some household. Definitely we are not ready. #electricty are not cheap anywhere.

Nigeria is more of a reactive country than a proactive country.

What is NNPC petrol station doing very close to Residential and Commercial buildings ?

Secondly, A 3 digit or unique phone number of police and fire service should be at the finger tip of every Nigerians incase of emergency like this. In the states the number is 911.... In Nigeria what is the number ? If telecommunication companies can have such customer care numbers like 111, 180, 121 etc, why can't the security agencies have it?

15 minutes after the fire incidence started, people were busy forwarding broadcast on WhatsApp and other social media, even the op created the thread calling for attention of fire service.

We need to re strategise and get it right for once.

May be you don't know, there is efficient and effective 112 emergency number in Nigeria, if you call the line with an emergency, they dispatch your case to appropriate agency to handle it instantly, I have a brother working in the Akure 112 emergency call center operated by NCC.

Experience is the best teacher �

Not even 600, may be 6,000,000 people died

Just like that?

At least your Illustration should mention the location

Oshogbo Weed is very dangerous..... Warning.

Hear they come again o. 5G men of God

Ok. But God was never hidden. May be decided to find him. Lost sheep may be.

madegreatbygrace:
It seems some don’t understand the message jmoore is passing across. He is not against giving to God to advance the kingdom, he is against tithing being taught in churches as a law.

Giving should be taught in churches as a principle and not as a law.

Is it wrong to pay tithe? Many have asked that question and my reply has always been; is it wrong to give?

The major difference is MOTIVE. Under the new covenant, we don’t give because we want to be blessed. We give because we are already blessed in Christ Jesus. We don’t give out of obligation but out of love. To think God blesses you because you pay tithe is missing the point big time. It’s like saying God contradicts Himself in Matthew 5:45 ;

“That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.”
~‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:45‬ ‭KJV‬‬

So if God blesses unbelievers who don’t pay tithe, how much more His sons. The New Testament encourages us to give cheerfully and generously, and without compulsion.

May God bless you with this insight and message.

Not all. Some blind people are just lazy to develop that sense of theirs. I once watched a program on the TV, a blind black dude who plays basketball. He wasn't born blind, but had a sickness at a tender age so his eyeballs had to be completely removed. This guy hardly use walking stick. He skates on a major road in between parked cars and could detect incoming vehicles and which direction its coming from. He knows where a building ends and where another begins. If taken to a new environment, he would know everywhere after 1 or 2 outings. Noone helps him around the house, he runs upstairs swiftly like someone that can see. I believe his clip should be on YouTube. He uses frequencies, air, body heats, counting etc to know all these things.

While I agree with you on this, but you can try to experiment it by blandfold yourself, and try to work around your street, I wish okada spare you when you try it.

mfm04622:
Totally blind people can do all normal sighted people can do except see! ALL! They don't seat in a place! I have seen many go anywhere they want with minimal assistance and live productive lives

whoever that can do all normal thing is not blind totally. Blindness is a challenge. If you want to experiment it, just just blindfold yourself and move to a new place and try to do something normal.

EzzyCarter:
When one sense gets impaired especially the sense of sight, the other senses become sharper. It's the body's natural way of ensuring survival. Visually impaired ppl usually have a stronger sense of smell, sharper ears and their sixth sense is sharper too that's how the girl was able to sense what you had on ur mind

also there are various degrees of blindness, some partially blind, and they could see faintly. Totally blind people tend to sit in one place.
