For the 2nd time in Nigerian history, on this day 34 years ago; no one had control of Lagos the Federal Capital as factions of the Army battled each other on the streets in broad daylight. |
It's been 34 Years, we have not forgotten! |
revived2:The Truth is out there bro. |
This man was telling the truth! |
US former Secretary of Defense for Intelligence claims the US has recovered technology that ‘did not originate on this earth US former Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, Christopher Mellon has said he believes the US has recovered technology that ‘did not originate on this earth’. Ahead of a scheduled Congress hearing about UFOs on Wednesday July 26, Mellon said America ‘may have in our possession off-world technology recovered from someone else’s space program’. The 65-year-old served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence in the Clinton and Bush administrations, and he now works as a private equity investor. In 2020, he admitted he was the secret source who provided the New York Times with the three UFO videos it famously published in 2017. Mellon said he expects some ‘new information’ will surface at the House Oversight Committee hearing on unidentified aerial phenomena – or UFOs – which will also be attended by Air Force and intelligence agency veteran David Grusch on Wednesday. ‘I expect Dave will provide some new information that we have not heard before,’ Mellon told NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo on Monday evening. ‘The objective here, I think, and the opportunity, is for the American people to come to better understand why it is that so many in Congress actually takes seriously the idea that there are UFOs, UAP (unexplained aerial phenomenon) that are violating U.S. airspace and the associated rumor, allegation, that we may have in our possession off-world technology recovered from someone else’s space program. I’ve been told that we have recovered technology that did not originate on this Earth, by officials in the Department of Defense and by former intelligence officials,’ he added. Back in April, government officials disputed this with the Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick of DOD’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) telling the Senate Armed Services Committee there is ‘no credible evidence thus far of extraterrestrial activity’ or ‘off-world technology’. But Mellon said there are ‘credible witnesses’ who are in ‘direct conflict between what Dr. Kirkpatrick is saying’ ‘Congress is in the middle and they’ve got to sort it out,’ he told Cuomo. Mellon suggested that AARO was not best-suited to investigating the issue of recovered technology. ‘This is like asking the Reagan administration to investigate the Iran-Contra affair,’ he said. ‘I think (AARO) can serve a very important purpose in terms of investigating, getting the agencies to share information, collating it, developing collection strategies – but when you’re talking about investigating this allegation of recovered materials, that’s a different matter. ‘I think Congress has to drive that investigation itself.’ Source: https://newspotng.com/us-former-secretary-of-defense-for-intelligence-claims-the-us-has-recovered-technology-that-did-not-originate-on-this-earth/

Also Compared it with a 8 Core Samsung Galaxy S Book with 8Gb ram. Processor: Snapdragon ( TM) 8cx If a laptop is 8 Core , shouldn't it be faster than a Quad Core?
|
What's the point of having a Laptop with 32Gigs of Ram? I remember almost 14 years ago when I thought a Dell C610 Laptop with 512MB ram was fast. So I increased the ram on this Dell Latitude 5520 Laptop with Intel Core i7 ( 1185G7) 3.85 Ghz from 16gb to 32bg. It was fast and it got faster. Userbenchmark.com put it in the 86th Percentile of all Laptops for processor power .

How horrible as our culture become that we post pictures of dead people without their consent ( which is probably not possible) or their families. All for what? Clicks?.Clout? Money? |
Kobojunkie: ![]() |
Kobojunkie:Nooo o ? grave how? He said " Remember when you come in your Kingdom" ..how can the response be Grave? |
Kobojunkie:That " Today you ll be with me in paradise '" had the comma put in the wrong spot before today. They didn't use commas and full stops in the days the Bible was written. The English translators used the liberty to place them where they thought necessary. No way the thief went to paradise that same day. |
Kobojunkie:Although the practice was to let the convicts hang till they died, which could take a day; which was why Pilate was suprised that the Master was already dead, so quickly. ( Mark 15: 44) In essence he died quickly at 3pm that same day ( Matt 27: 45-50. Verse 57 says " As evening approached" that would have to be the same day that Pilate gave them permission to bring down the body. |
Kobojunkie:Hmmm. Let me do some more research and study! |
Kobojunkie:Hang until the next day? He was buried the same day. |
TenQ:Wonderful! |
Kobojunkie:Interesting. |
Kobojunkie:Please don't get me wrong. I am not saying it didn't happen on Sunday or it happened on Sunday, I wasn't there . And I know He died that week and I know He rose that week. But what I also know is that it couldn't have been death On Friday and resurrection On Sunday as that wouldn't make the 3 days and 3 nights he promised. He always kept and still keeps His promises. |
Kobojunkie:You have a point with number 2, but doesn't negate that he didn't die on Friday. The Gospels are not wrong, they give eye witness accounts of an empty tomb and meeting the Risen Christ, but No one says they say Him rise on Sunday morning. Where did Jesus stay or go immediately he rose? The Bible doesn't say, but there is an indication that He took the blood offering to Heaven and came back at a point because in John 20: 17 he doesn't allow anyone touch him because he hasn't ascended to the Father ; then in Matthew 28: 9 He allows himself to be touched. |
Timothy 2:15 KJV Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Jesus the Messiah did not die on Friday and did not rise on Sunday. Does it matter? Yes. Why ? Because when asked for a sign from the Pharasees, he specifically said the only sign he would give them would be the sign of Jonah. That just like Jonah was in the belly of a whale for 3 days and 3 nights; so , he would be in the belly of the Earth for 3 days and 3 nights: Matthew 12: 38-40 38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees told Jesus,[a] “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.” 39 But he replied to them, “An evil and adulterous generation craves a sign. Yet no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah, 40 because just as Jonah was in the stomach of the sea creature for three days and three nights,[b] so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights." So did Master Jesus lie or was he mistaken? No he didn't and no he wasn't. It's people that are confused. This is the only sign that Jesus gave when confronted by his enemies, he kept to it. The confusion over the years is that people assume that since the Bible says he was quickly buried before the Sababath, they think that means Friday, just before Saturday ( Mark 15: 42). Sabbath for Jews begins on Friday sunset and ends on Saturday sunset. But all the festival days like the Passover, Pentecost, Tabernacles were also considered Sabbaths. Thus the Passover of that year like every other year year was also a Sababath, meaning 2 Sabaths that week. When was Jesus crucified? most likely Wednesday. So we have 3 days: Thursday, Friday and Saturday and 3 nights: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. So when did he resurrect? The Bible never says exactly, all we know is that Mary Magadalene went to the tomb early yes first day of the week ( Sunday) and met and empty tomb.( Matthew 28: 1). So He probably rose on Saturday evening before night fall. No human actually was present nor witnessed the resurrection of the Christ. But the risen Jesus appeared to many. God does not lie. The Bible can be trusted. Jesus Is Risen.

samkom78:This is serious o. It looks like many people rely on Whatsapp too much, with no immediate back up plan especially Whatsapp Groups like Alumni |
Down in the USA. |
Whatsapp has been down for over an hour in some parts of the United States (maybe all) and India too. How is it in Nigeria guys? |
Mirabella00:Very seriously. I have searched for years for them, not to be found anywhere. |
Will pay up to 80k to anyone who can send me these songs, whether YouTube Video or mp3 1) 10k each for the official songs for Nigeria's 25th Anniversary. Both songs start as follows 1) Nigeria is 25, ring the bell.... 2) Nigeria is 25, the odds we have survived 30k or more each for the whole album of 1) Lorine Okotie (Jesus I Love You) 2) A gospel song by an OAU group released around 2000/2001. One of the songs goes as follows: " It is your Mercies yesterday today and forever, Lord your love, Lord your light.." Then adds some Yoruba words I think. Below is the thread created 10 Years ago for one of the Nigeria Anniversary songs. https://www.nairaland.com/437568/nigeria-25-theme-song-bongos/1 |

Second time was not the charm. MacKenzie Scott filed for divorce from her second husband, Dan Jewett, on Monday after less than two years of marriage. According to documents obtained by the New York Times, Jewett did not contest the divorce and the division of property has already been determined in a prenuptial agreement. The former couple — who quietly got married in March 2021 — first hinted at marital problems when the science teacher’s name suddenly disappeared from Scott’s philanthropic pledges. On the site for the Giving Pledge, where billionaires promise to give away half of their fortune before they die, his letter no longer appears with hers. Her Amazon bio also completely erased any mention of her second husband. Scott’s divorce comes three years after she and Jeff Bezos announced they were splitting following 25 years of marriage. “We want to make people aware of a development in our lives,” Bezos, the world’s second richest person, tweeted at the time. “As our family and close friends know, after a long period of loving exploration and trial separation, we have decided to divorce and continue our shared lives as friends.” He continued, “We feel incredibly lucky to have found each other and deeply grateful for every one of the years we have been married to each other. If we had known we would separate after 25 years, we would do it all again.” Their divorce came just before Bezos’ affair with TV journalist Lauren Sanchez was exposed. Bezos and Scott first met when they both worked for the hedge fund D.E. Shaw. They went on to have four children together. Following their divorce, Scott became the 12th richest person in the world as Bezos’ assets were split in half.

22 Years after; the memory lingers on! |
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Republican U.S. Rep. Jeff Fortenberry of Nebraska on Saturday resigned from office after a California jury convicted him of lying to federal authorities about an illegal campaign donation from a foreign national. In a letter to the House, Fortenberry said he was resigning from Congress, effective March 31. “It has been my honor to serve with you in the United States House of Representatives,” he said in the letter. “Due to the difficulties of my current circumstances, I can no longer effectively serve.” Fortenberry’s resignation letter opened with a poem, “Do It Anyway,” that’s associated with Mother Teresa. One line from the poem says: “What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight. Build anyway.” Fortenberry’s announcement followed concerted pressure from political leaders in Nebraska and Washington for him to step down. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy on Friday urged Fortenberry to resign. Nebraska Republican Gov. Pete Ricketts said Fortenberry should “do the right thing for his constituents” and leave the office he has held since 2005. Fortenberry was indicted in October after authorities said he lied to FBI agents in two separate interviews about his knowledge of an illegal $30,000 contribution from his campaign from a foreign billionaire. Fortenberry was interviewed at his home in Lincoln, and then again with his lawyers present in Washington, D.C. At trial, prosecutors presented recorded phone conversations in which Fortenberry was repeatedly warned that the contributions came from Gilbert Chagoury, a Nigerian billionaire of Lebanese descent. The donations were funneled through three strawmen at a 2016 fundraiser in Los Angeles. Fortenberry’s withdrawal from the primary leaves state Sen. Mike Flood as the likely GOP nominee. The former speaker of the Nebraska Legislature, who has won endorsements from Ricketts and former Gov. Dave Heineman, has a strong advantage in the Republican-leaning 1st Congressional District. State Sen. Patty Pansing Brooks, a Democrat from Lincoln, is also running for the seat. Pansing Brooks said Fortenberry’s conviction is a “wake-up call” that the district needs a change. In a statement Saturday, Pansing Brooks said: “This opens the door for a new approach to serving (the 1st Congressional District). I am ready and able to meet that challenge and lead with integrity.” Source: https://share.newsbreak.com/qu895yr1
