leme ask
when these so called superstars are living large do they ever help suffering Nigerians except for few
take this Leo for example has he ever picked up someone with no hope and helped
why then do they expect to harvest what they didn't plant?
this ia why i love the likes of kanu nwankwo and co.
my own thoughts tho....

Please let's be humane on Leo. I don't know him from Adam, neither do I watch nollywood (I consider it a film for illiterate housewives and unintelligent people) but if you understand the typical African family setting, you would know that every "big man" has nuclear and extended family financial responsibilities. In many cases, those responsibilities can be daunting. And they usually come unannounced, unpublicised.

You never can tell the family financial responsibilities Leo is shouldering as we speak. It's a Nigerian way of life. Don't castigate him. Pray for his recovery like I'm doing.

The kind of packaged lifestyle celebrities live one would think that they have tens of millions in the bank. But far from it. Many of them are just struggling, but try to cover up with expensive clothes and cars. Packaging.

However, nollywood can afford to raise 10m in a day.

But where's the love?

My reason for feeling hurt is actually bordered on the fact that she is perfect rare gem who fell into the wrong hands and was not appreciated.

...that dude practically turned her into what she isn't.

I'm beginning to understand better why you felt the way you did.

You said she's a PERFECT RARE GEM. I don't know your age but I think with time you'd meet more gems. It all depends on your mindset: to be stuck in the past or to embrace the present with a clear optimism for the future.

Don't be too emotional over women issues because it would make you weak. Focus more on your personal development, career success, and all the "gems" would come creeping all over you. I'm talking from experience. Take your time to choose.

Go for a woman who shows CONSIDERABLE INTEREST in you. Don't waste your time trying to impress (or convince) those who are busy fvcking some other playboy dudes. They ain't worth your heart.

Some are saying that in America nobody would question a man who dresses in military outfits. But Nigeria is not America!

Nigeria has her own security perculiarities and we must stop comparing everything to the West. The Nigerian military authorities have warned civilians to desist from wearing military outfits for general safety. It's no longer news that some criminals choose to operate in military uniforms.

However, defaulters should be handed over to the police and not manhandled on the streets. Military brutality must stop!

I always maintain that a man's performance in bed is 80% dependent on the lady in question. Some ladies are an instant turnoff.

Before we are quick to form conclusions over Messi's sexual virility, let's acknowledge the fact that some ladies are an instant turnoff in bed. No matter how powerful you are in bed, once you get down with a woman with vaginal odor, you'd instantly loose your erecti0n. Some ladies don't really know how to care for their "thing".

Another strong factor that can affect a guy's performance is when he's overwhelmed by a sudden guilt that he shouldn't be fvcking that lady because he's cheating on a more loving partner. Messi had a childhood sweetheart all along...

We were not there when they fvcked and so we must hear Messi's side of the story too.

[you quoted my first unmodified response]
@mypains,

It's obvious you love(d) this girl so much. And you secretly admired her long before her boyfriend came into her life, right? This is why you feel hurt over these issues. These issues are not that deep. The deep issue is that you wanted the girl. My question is: why didn't you boldly go for her before this guy came along?

Also learn how to read body language before you expose yourself to unnecessary hurt. If you've been really kind to this girl like you narrated, and yet she couldn't as much as respectfully knock at your door to offer you a plate of food in your time of need, couldn't you get the signal?

You see in Nigeria, asking a neighbor for pressing iron or pegs is quite different from asking for food. People have different orientation to food. Sometimes the request has to be chipped in as an obvious joke and then you gauge her response. For example, I only remarked to a female corper in my lodge "wow this your cooking is aromatic", and as soon as the food was cooked she asked "ok Tom food is ready o, should I dish you some?"...

She was in love and you were seen as a potential threat, the message was clear enough. She wasn't meant for you so I just wondered why you kept paying so much attention to her to the point of needlessly getting hurt. As a corper, girls would come in droves for you to be so busy catching fun and she'd be the one seeking your attention.

Lastly, if you still love this lady, for as long as she's not yet married, why don't you make a bold effort for her heart?

Now this is my take on this and advice to you:

1) This lady has a good heart but was only momentarily swept away by her lover's overbearing influence. We all make mistakes when we are in love (that's why some say love is blind), but it takes a good woman/man to feel some remorse afterwards.

2) You allowed your unannounced love for her to let you get too personal with her. You escorted her to the market, ended up in her room waiting for her to cook and dish out to you. She gave you the red signal (by flashing her bf) yet you stubbornly stayed glued in her room until the dude arrived. Did you not realize that you were a little overbearing on her?

3) As a corper back then, I had two ladies fall over themselves weekly to serve me their food, why? Value. So, did you create value for yourself in her presence? If you did, she would have been the one always asking "please do you care for dinner?" and not you literally begging her to feed you when she's not your mum...

4) Things that happen during NYSC days are often not worth carrying over or making a storm out of a teacup. YOU SHOULD NOT JUDGE HER BASED ON THESE TRIVIAL THINGS you mentioned. Nobody is perfect, especially after judge graduating from a rough school experience...

5) This lady's boyfriend was only being overprotective, having seen that his babe was surrounded by males in the lodge. Don't blame him, it's a natural phase in love (animal instinct)... He would even laugh over the matter today.

6) Forget/forgive the past and be happy. Life is too short for all these acrimony.

Because the churches are not led by Christians.

See, the leaders of most of these churches are even respected more than Jesus by their congregation. Today's church-goer would rather do what "daddy pastor" says than what the Bible says.

Christianity Etc › Re: Is This True About Refusing To Pay Tithes In Church by tomquest: 1:32pm On Aug 01, 2016

CeoMoses:
I was listen to my radio this morning,when I heard a man of God say that "if you do not pay your tithes you will go to hell"...now the question is thrown to all nairalanders is it true?

Search your scriptures. There are lots of old-testament laws that are not being presently practiced or adopted by today's churches, but they've held on tightly to the Tithe doctrine because IT IS FINANCIALLY RELEVANT to them.

I own a copy of the Bible and I've done my own research. Tithes were originally mandated in the Old Testament to serve a specific purpose.

Does God still require 10% of your money today? (remember tithing was not money, in fact it rarely was). The word “tithe” is used 13 times in the Bible. Not once do you see the word “money” used with it. The word “tithes” is used 21 times in the Bible. The word “money” is not mentioned. It has become this because of our system we use today, but this was not strictly so for Israel.

2 Chronicles 31:4-5: “Moreover he commanded the people who dwelt in Jerusalem to contribute support for the priests and the Levites, that they might devote themselves to the Law of the LORD. As soon as the commandment was circulated, the children of Israel brought in abundance the firstfruits of grain and wine, oil and honey, and of all the produce of the field; and they brought in abundantly the tithe of everything.”

Christianity Etc › Why Are Most Schools Operated By Nigerian Churches Not Free Or Very-Low-Tuition? by tomquest(op): 1:07pm On Aug 01, 2016*

Most of these church-owned schools are not cheap. But they were all built from members' tithes and offerings. Of course it's not illegal to have a church-school run to make profits, but does it reflect the ideals of Christ?

How do we justify the super-luxury lifestyles exhibited by many church leaders while majority of their congregation cannot even go to school? Does the love of Christ only exist on our lips? Wouldn't it be ideal if every church dedicates her school- free of charge- to the her poor members?

Why take money from both the poor and the rich, to make life more enjoyable and better for only the rich? Is this what Jesus taught us about giving? Are there scriptural backings for this?

Christianity Etc › Re: Churches Should Not Be Ran Like Businesses by tomquest: 2:06pm On Jul 31, 2016*

Nigeria has the highest number of churches and worshipers in the world but you can't see God in the lives of even 5% of these multitudes.

Love is the greatest religion but what 95% percent of Nigerian Christians practice is Cultism. Less than 5% will smell Heaven, irrespective of the number of private jets they fly. Remember Lazarus and the Rich Man.

"I was naked but thou didn't cloth me, was hungry but thou didn't feed me" shall be the cry of Jesus on the judgement throne against the bulk of these cultists calling themselves Christians...

They say it's right that 95% of members cannot afford to pay the fees in their church schools. Jesus "approves of it"! Good things ain't for the poor! But the pastors were once poor, but now live like emperors, from tithes and offering.

Heaven will shock millions...

The fact that every tribe of the human race since the time of the Neanderthal have some belief in a deity not because a deity exists, but because of our inbuilt need to believe that a deity who created it all exists, its our way of trying to make sense of the world around us...

Who created the first man and woman?

Everything begins with your mindset. While some walk around with pride even with issues involving billions, some people are taking their own lives over peanuts. May God forgive us all, we are mere mortals.

Banks should tone down all these excessive pressures they heap on loyal staff. Man is not a machine. In all we do to drive business, we must not forget that we are mere mortals who occasionally deserve some compassion.

God will definitely help his bereaved family, especially that little angel he left behind in this cruel world.
