nairalanda1: I would like it if most nigerians paid taxes at 30% for the poor, 40-50% for the rich...covering something like 95% of working age nigerians.
NO, I don't support tinubu, and i don't like APC. But here is the cold reality, 1.7 or even the 4 million barrels that tinubu is aiming for, or even the ten million barrels, all per day, of crude...cannot yield enough revenue to satisfy 237 million nigerians, even if we comot corruption.
I like the tax idea because it would reduce (not end, every nation borrows) our borrowing. More importantly, it would really put fire under our leader's legs well well. If we are paying hefty tax, and not seeing any benefits at all at all, ya think that there would not be actual revolution?
70% of taxable nigerians are not paying taxes. Less than 20% of this year's budget came from tax revenue. That means borrowing, because for us to not tax anyone, oil has to be way above 160 dollars per barrel..on a continous basis. And to reduice borrowing, we got to improve the tax to gdp...which is below the African advantage.
Because most of our government revenue is not from tax, people do not effing care about the massive stealing going up in Abuja and the executive. It is time people were forced to wake up. When that happens, nothing for APC or our crrupt leaders to loot again...dem go see shege.
Infact the reason why we no dey see revolution is because e no dey hit people for their pockets.When it starts actually doing so, people would wake up and see

peteregwu: Are you born again? And you don't seem to understand how God works since time immemorial. you don't understand the deep things of God. It's pathetic!
Pastor Lazarus Muoka told us back in 2005/2006 that whenever we encounter danger that threatens our lives, we should declare, "I am a Chosen!" three times and ask the danger, "Who are you?"
At first, it may sound foolish to those who don't understand. But the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 1:27 that God has chosen the foolish things of this world to confound the wise.
Since Pastor Muoka made this declaration, God has continued to confirm the word of His message through testimonies. To us, this is a covenant instruction, and we have continued to see testimonies that strengthen our faith.
Thank God this latest incident happened in South Africa. If it had happened in Nigeria, some unfortunate people would have rushed to social media to mock The Lord's Chosen, claiming it was arranged. But now that it happened in South Africa, involving members who are also South African indigenes, where are all those mockers?
God knows how to vindicate those He has called for His purpose. If God calls you, He will also equip you.
Remember that woman whose testimony went viral some time ago, claiming she was shot at but the bullets did not penetrate her body. She also testified about collecting an AK-47. Many people used that testimony to ridicule The Lord's Chosen and make caricatures of us.
Now, another extraordinary testimony has emerged in South Africa, yet those who were quick to mock us seem unusually quiet.
But whether people believe or doubt these testimonies, our faith remains in God. Not every act of God will make sense to the natural mind.
Keep doubting if you want. 😂 Perhaps one day, members of your own family will start becoming Chosen in droves, and then you may begin to understand what you have been ridiculing!
enemyofprogress: 🇨🇦 NIGERIAN MAN FACES D€P0RT@TI0N FROM CANADA DESPITE HAVING A CANADIAN WIFE AND THREE CHILDREN
The immigration ordeal of Olukunle Adetunji has brought renewed attention to the difficult realities some families face under Canada's immigration system.
According to reports, Adetunji faced immigration detention in 2016–2017 and was released in July 2017. At the time, his wife, Kimora, and their three children were Canadian citizens, while his application for permanent residence on humanitarian and compassionate grounds remained outstanding.
Now, a CityNews report published on October 14, 2026, says he is facing d€p0rtation from Canada despite repeated attempts to regularize his immigration status.
His case raises difficult questions about family unity, immigration procedures, and the challenges faced by people seeking permission to remain in Canada.
Immigration rules or family unity—which deserves greater consideration in a case like this? Share your thoughts respectfully.
AMINDA: Peter Obi will likely endorse Atiku before the 2027 elections. This will be unianimous amongst several opposition candidates. That much dreaded alliance that APC fears may just happen. Heads or tail, Tinubu has no pathway to re-election.
For your mind abi ?
Atiku is the same as TIfnubu, maybe even worse.
Nigeria will not make the same mistake a third time.
Meerahbel: I think we need to be careful about stretching the pastor’s action beyond what he actually said.
Yes, Pastor Bolaji deliberately removed his shoes, dusted them and referenced the biblical instruction about shaking the dust off one’s feet. And yes, that is not a random biblical metaphor. Jesus gave that instruction in Matthew 10:14, Mark 6:11 and Luke 9:5, and Paul later demonstrated a similar act in Acts 18:6.
But does that automatically mean Pastor Bolaji cursed his congregation or handed them over to judgment? I don't think we can confidently make that conclusion.
The context matters.
When Jesus instructed His disciples to shake the dust off their feet, the action was primarily a symbolic testimony of rejection: “We have brought the message to you; you have rejected it; we will not force it on you.” It was not necessarily a personal curse where the preacher was invoking evil upon the people.
In fact, notice something important about Matthew 10. Jesus wasn't telling His disciples to retaliate against people who rejected them. He told them to leave.
That distinction matters.
So, if Pastor Bolaji's gesture was intended to say, “I've told you what I believe Scripture teaches about relationships and financial expectations; if you choose not to listen, that's your decision,” then I don't think it is fair to automatically interpret it as him cursing his members.
However, I do agree that the gesture was unnecessarily strong, especially considering the pastoral relationship between a shepherd and his flock.
A pastor is not merely another participant in an argument. He has a responsibility to correct, teach and sometimes even endure the resistance of the people he leads.
And honestly, the congregation's response was also unnecessary.
Imagine your pastor is standing before you teaching something he genuinely believes is biblical, and your response is essentially, “Men dey.”
That's not really a theological rebuttal. 😂
You're basically telling the person teaching you, “Whether you agree or not, somebody else will give me what I want.”
That response actually proves the pastor's point more than it disproves it.
At the same time, the pastor could have handled the moment differently. Correction doesn't always require confrontation. He could have laughed it off, continued teaching and allowed the people to wrestle with the message.
Because Christianity isn't about winning arguments with members; it's about transforming people.
And this is where I would slightly disagree with the interpretation that “he should have prayed for them instead.”
He absolutely could have prayed for them. But we shouldn't turn every strong biblical rebuke into a failure of Christianity either. Jesus Himself confronted people strongly. Paul confronted churches strongly. The prophets certainly did.
The issue isn't whether a pastor can express displeasure.
The issue is what his heart and intention were behind it.
If the dusting of the shoes was a humorous but serious way of saying, “I have said my piece; you people can do what you want,” then perhaps we are reading too much into it by calling it a curse.
But if he genuinely meant, “Because you rejected my instruction, I am pronouncing judgment upon you,” then I would have a problem with that.
A pastor should be extremely careful about using his spiritual authority as a weapon against the people entrusted to him.
And perhaps there is another lesson here for both sides.
Women shouldn't approach relationships with the mentality that men are walking ATMs.
But men shouldn't use that conversation as an opportunity to shame women either.
Healthy relationships involve generosity, sacrifice and mutual responsibility. A man may choose to provide for his woman; a woman may choose to support her man. Those are matters that should be discussed within the context of the relationship—not turned into an entitlement backed by “men dey.”
And equally, a pastor's teaching should be received thoughtfully, not met with a slogan designed to dismiss him.
So my conclusion is simple:
The congregation's response was disrespectful, but Pastor Bolaji's gesture should not automatically be labelled a curse. It was a biblical symbolic action, although perhaps an unnecessarily dramatic one in that particular setting.
We shouldn't manufacture a spiritual curse where there may simply have been a pastor saying, in effect:
“I've told you what I believe Scripture says. If you choose not to hear it, I won't force you.”
And frankly, “he that has ears, let him hear” was probably the clearest part of the entire exchange.
[quote author=Mynd44 post=140924766]Pastor Bolaji Idowu of Harvesters International Christian Centre (HICC) was addressing his church youth (especially ladies) about they should grow and grow wealth with their partners and he spoke about how some young women have inflated expectation of wealth from men when the church members replied in 2 simple words "Men dey". Meaning some men are not willing to spoil them, there are men that will and what did Pastor Bolaji do, he busted his shoes in a way to signify he is done with the message and ended the service.
The extent of delusion in this our generation is actually scary and worrying. It is so troubling that even in places you expect common-sense, the level of blind commitment to destructive delusional fantasy is just mind-blowing.

ruzell86: I'm an Atiku sympathiser though, because he's the most experienced and also a unifier. And it's biased to call him same of same... as his highest political office is a VP (with no complete hold on Government).
And if you whip the sentiment of "Southern candidates" which isn't necessary at this point... then Obi ticks the box too. Atleast, we have lived survived Tinubu's experience in almost 4 years, which is not impressive at all.
Una no dey learn. That’s how you keep installing criminals to rule over you, and later start shouting up and down.
