Meagre Resources?

Its quite unfortunate that we are not practicing true federalism in Nigeria.
Enugu State has coal reserve in commercial quantity that can be sold to other states and exported.

Enugu state has hills and beautiful landscape that can be harnessed for tourism.

There is so much resources and potential in Nigeria but we need to practice true federalism by empowering these states to tap their resources and generate revenue from it.

The federal government needs to stop spoon feeding all the states!

PROPHETmichael:
But many of today's ministers act as if they never received that memo.

And that is precisely why you see them running around here more concerned with cultivating their popularity than cultivating their anointing.

They're more concerned with publicity than prayer, with broadcasting than group fasting, with being celebrated than being sanctified.

Indeed, today's brood of carnal clergy yearn more to be on television than to heal the sick and cast out devils.

They're interested more in the size of their church than with the holiness of their church.

No wonder, then, the power of God is never in demonstration in their meetings.

Every week, in spite of the faithful attendance of their parishioners, the people leave each service as sick and as sinful as they were when they came to service.

It is because the bulk of today's ministry have the wrong approach to ministry. And this is the very thing that continually grieves the Spirit of God.

"And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption" (Ephesians 4:30).

Pimps and divas now pepper the pulpits to the point where many of God's precious people are hard pressed to find true ministry anywhere.

And if and when they do find a semblance of authentic ministry, it is usually watered down to such a degree that no supernatural contact can be made with God in those churches.

All of this is proof positive that we have entered a critical time in the Church's history all because of the self-centered, self-aggrandizing me-ism of today's clergy.

Pray that the Father will raise up a new breed of ministers who have transcended the juvenile narcissism that is commonplace among today's immature clergy and are completely consecrated to the cause of redemption.

Pray that they will be bold in speaking the unadulterated Word of God and adept at flowing in the power of the Spirit of God.

And God will be entreated of you and answer your prayers.

And so shall the Church be restored to honor, and the risen Savior will once again be given the homage He is rightfully due!

This Abdurraman Mohammed is one of the most confused and disorganized fellows. The interviewer must have suffered from all those flight of ideas, lncoherent lateral thinking and blatant lies.
General Abacha died in June 1998 while Salihijo Ahmad died over one year later on Monday July 5th 1999,and this guy is spewing rubbish about how Abacha told him to move against them and “that is why they interviewed Salihijo” and After the interview ( apparently the same day) Salihijo died while waiting to see a Doctor! So where was Abacha that day? And did this guy go back to report to Abacha who was actually dead and buried a year before Salihijo’s death?

Hmm......
when you think you've heard it all. Born again Christian indeed, your name speaks more......

GoTV:
Even though I'm a born again Christian, i think we Christians are heating up the polity with our hate speeches and unnecessary hatred towards Muslims cum Fulani tribe. Our irresponsible preachers like Oyedepo deserves to be arrested and tortured by the DSS for spreading fake news about islamization and encouraging self defense when the bible teaches us to love our neighbors as ourselves. Fiery preachers are mostly Christians and they are hell bent on tarnishing the image of Muslims and Fulanis. This is why i like organizations like MURIC working day and night to defend the interests of Muslims. I think we Christians are the problems in this country.

Neofingerz:
So there's this issue argued over and over again bout receiving or asking for change when you drop your offering........ probably because you don't have much on you, like you have to transport home and you don't have change but you are keen on giving offering.

I just want to know your sincere thoughts on this please let's interact here and know something....i personally thinks it's not a bad thing but let's talk happy Sunday and happy New month to y'all

A 41-year-old commercial bus driver, who augments his daily income by operating as a vulcaniser by the side is also one of the victims at the Otedola Fire Accident.

The father of three and native of Osun State invests much of his energy and time into productive activities that would help put food on the table for his family.

On Thursday afternoon, while ferrying passengers in his 18-seater bus from Lagos to the Mowe/Ibafo area of neighbouring Ogun, a bigger worry was added to Olaitan’s growing list.

A speeding tanker laden with around 33, 000 litres of Premium Motor Spirit – one of the deadliest and easily combustible liquids in the world – that had lost control suddenly fell a few metres away from Otedola Bridge, a popular axis along the Lagos/Ibadan Expressway, spilling its content all over the place and bursting into flames shortly afterwards.


The 41-year-old whose commercial bus was directly behind the ill-fated tanker, the moment brought a glimpse of perhaps what the end of the world would look like.

“I saw darkness everywhere immediately the tanker exploded,” he said while speaking with Saturday Beat on his hospital bed where yards of bandages now strapped him like an armour.


“I thought I was going to die. It was as if the end had come. There was commotion everywhere, just like in a war. Nothing else came to my mind.

We all believed it was the end,” he added soberly as he narrated his ordeal to his teary-eyed wife – Faidat – and other family members, who had come to check on him on Friday morning.

While attributing his narrow escape to divine grace, the Ile-Ife indigene said that for a few minutes after the tanker fell, he and others in the vehicle were confused as to what to do.


He revealed that it was while it was being argued that the content of the truck was diesel or petrol that the entire place erupted in flames. According to him, after being briefly knocked out by the sound of the explosion, he managed to regain consciousness and enough strength to force his way out of the bus through the front passenger seat. But even after exiting the vehicle, his fears were far from over.

“I jumped into a gutter full of dirty water immediately I forced my way out of the bus,” he said, slowly adjusting his sitting position on the bed. “I had hoped to use the water to quench the fire on my body but unknown to me the water had already mixed with the petrol that had spilled from the tanker. That compounded my problem.

While I was struggling to quench the fire on my body, I did not know that my head was burning. I managed to run across the road and into an uncompleted building where people around helped me put out the fire. That was my saving grace, otherwise only God knows what would have happened to me,” he stated.

Opinionated:
By Kurtis Adigba

Yemi Osinbajo, professor of law, SAN, is an accomplished professional. Unlike many of our politicians, he has a second address. In other words, outside of government, he can survive, and survive with panache. Before his current position, he was the Attorney-General of Lagos State for 8 years. He performed excellently.

Prof. Osibanjo, is also a senior pastor with the RCCG. He was the pastor in-charge at the Banana Island road branch, Ikoyi, Lagos, of the church. As the senior pastor of the church, he was known for his humility, frugality, and godly virtues. Osibanjo, unlike most of his colleagues who will seat in their high offices and delegate evangelism to others, was always on the roads, accompanied by his wife, Dolapo, preaching the gospel of Jesus. He is a self-effacing man!

VP Osinbajo, was not looking for a job when he was nominated by president Buhari as as running mate. President Buhari, on a mission to rescue Nigeria at the time was looking for a partner who is a man of proven integrity and honesty. He found in Osinbajo, the qualities he was looking for. He wasted no time in naming him after meeting him in Abuja. His choice, was a master stroke. Many Nigerians, received the news of his nomination with joy, and pledged their support. Buhari and Osinbajo were elected as president and vice-president of Nigeria under the APC, a party the opposition PDP, and CAN had described as a Muslim party. Some openly expressed their disdain with Osinbajo for accepting to serve under Buhari, a perceived Muslim extremist. They asked: why would Osinbajo a Christian and pastor, agree to serve under a Muslim?

Osinbajo threw himself into the job with dedication. As a senior lawyer, he knows the limits of the powers of his office. He knows he is not the president. He knows that he must remain loyal to the president, and do the jobs given to his office by the president. With a president on his seat, the only thing he can do is to advice the president. He cannot insist that his advice be followed. In the absence of the president, he becomes the Acting president. We are all witnesses to how he brilliantly and efficiently held the office in the absence of the president. He travelled to different parts of the country to reconcile the government with certain parts of the country. He implemented policies that strengthened the naira against the dollars following the positive outcome of his negotiations with the leaders and militant groups in the SS part of the country. He created a pervasive sense of unity, and remained loyal to the president by attributing everything he did to the president.

Osibanjo, is highly trusted by president Buhari. The president is so comfortable with him that he ceded the management of the nation’s economy to him. For a every critical assignment or mission, he is the go-to-man of the president. He has visited many conflict areas on behalf of the president. Many will remember that he is the first to visit and commiserate with communities that has been attacked by the Fulani Herdsmen. After the attacks on some Benue communities leading to egregious deaths and destruction, VP Osinbajo visited the state more than once in a month. He attended the funerals of some of the victims of the attacks, and gave a heartfelt address on that occasion.

Recently, VP Osinbajo, has come under attacks by some pastors and their supporters. Many are questioning why and how he can still claim to be a Christian and pastor, and remain in the government out to eliminate Christians and Christianity. They are calling on him to quit. This is to say the least, uncharitable!

Many of the pastors, making these calls, will not even consider resigning from their positions in their churches no matter how bad things are. They will also, no brook any opposition from any pastor under them. Any pastor under them that holds a contrary view on issues will be removed on the direction of some spirit. This is the truth! The same people are the ones asking Osinbajo to stand up and confront the president. I’m not against Osinbajo confronting the president, or resigning from his position if he thinks there reasons to do so, that is his call to make. I’m against those attacking for not leaving in pursuit of their narrow and selfish objective. VP Osinbajo, is not in government as a pastor. He is there as an administrator whose actions and inaction, are governed by the laws of the country. He took an oath that imposed a duty on him to be fair and just to all, irrespective of their tribes and religion. He is the vice-president of Nigeria, not of the Christians in Nigeria!

If the pastors, believe that Nigeria should be governed by Christians only, they can form a Christian party in Nigeria, and contest elections. This is the situation in some European countries. In 2019, VP Osinbajo, maybe on the ticket with Buhari hopefully, and we have the opportunity to decide his fate.

What many may not have adverted their minds to, is what the situation could have been without the moderating voice and influence of Osibanjo. If Mordecai had been in the palace to counsel Esther, the Jews would have been destroyed from the counsel of Hamman.

Let me conclude this piece by advising the pastors and their supporters to, spare Osinbajo from the needless attacks. The Muslim community is standing solidly behind Buhari, who is the leader, and on whose desk the buck stops. We are tearing at our own. The pastors, should devote their energies in raising up righteous men who will takeover the affairs of the country, and set us on the path to sustainable development. VP Osinbajo is not perfect, only God is!

God bless Nigeria.

The economy is statutorily within the purview of the office of the vice president. It is not at the whims and caprice of the president to decide though he can undermine his performance of that role

Looking at the charade of atiku, it was same charade pre-2015... no one knows again..

-Sowore seems regional..
-Moghalu does not have the political clout..
-Donald duke seems like a green snake..
-Markafi seems too docile..
-Dankwanbo seem too oppurtunistic (el -rufai)..
-Sule lamido has a bad financial record..
-Fayose seems regional..
-Atiku may be the lesser devil and the only strong figure to displace the incompetent buhari but seriously seems like someone power might intoxicate..

Restructure all the way... it seems only Atiku has been speaking on such lately.

It's so easy to blame the herdsmen but how many of you can withstand losses of 300 cows and above? The cattles are their only means of livelihood and it's expected to defend your business interests when threatened. The villagers are at fault for stealing those cattles. Even though i condemn killers, i think we should give the fulanis a break

Everybody wants to identify with APC as winning party.

The Value of APC ticket is like the British pound, while that of PDP is like Zimbabwean Dollar, hence nobody breaks a sweat to have it..

Congratulations to the APC for a very peaceful Convention.

Sai Buhari till 2023.

APC! progress!!

I've Been Wrongly Accused By My Very Best Friend And I Don't Know What To Do

I just don't know what to do at the moment, I'm so emotionally down and confused.

A friend who's birthday was today, decided to host us at a bar close by. On getting there, I greeted everyone but noticed he was quiet and moody.

30 mins later, he asked that we should meet outside. next thing I heard was that I was sleeping with her girlfriend. I tried to prove my innocence but it all fell in deaf ears. with anger,I left without telling anyone.

An hour later, he called and was like "someone saw both of us(I and the girlfriend) coming out of my apartment".
I don't know how to prove my innocence and please I really need you guys input on this matter.
I don't know how to make him believe me.
I know my writing is bad, but that's not what matters for now.

Please I seriously need your advice guys.
I swear with my life and father's grave I cannot do such
