Family / Re: See What I observed After The Death Of My Father by wolebest: 9:02pm On Oct 25, 2023
Tonero5200:
No matter how useless a man is, once he dies the household of the family strength changes. It might not be financially rather emotionally and physically.

Here are my reasons

My dad is a man who drinks alot to the extend we the children are embarrassed for him because we can't go to functions he goes to... because as he goes, he comes back in a different way.

So we do everything possible to avoid where he is at, but on some occasions we cant..depends on how close the celebrant is. Then we bore it in mind that that day we might get to hear something that offends us.. the shame and embarrassment and might retaliate or ignore.


Being one of the senior men alive, they always come to pay homage everytime despite being the way he is..to settle dispute and to also pray for them.. and also tell them about history how we related and mention names of our forefathers, tracing back their Roots step by step..he knows all..because his father also told him. so they respect him for that as an elderly man even though dry gin is his best friend. all they can do was to talk and laugh behind his back. When he's sober they dare not make jest of him.
I repeat they dare not.


But now he's been dead about 4years ago and I tell you we that normally get the first invitation of marriage ceremony or any functions happening in the extended family no longer gets invited.

Nobody has come in to ask hwfar from us the children since he was buried. They see us as not important since the elderly man is no more.

Our family house that used to trooped in by different new faces almost every week don't see it no more


I am not talking about money here, I am good... But even if I don't have...my elder brother who is a graduate the back bone is there...but I am just stating the obvious fact...

THAT everybody has use no matter how useless you perceive them to be and one day you might get to realise that.


The thing is that during those period we don't even take it as anything. Instead we the children gets angry whenever they comes to inform him for a function because we know that week we will not sleep at night...but as it has its advantages so those it has it disadvantages.


Ol boy, your old man is gone forever and he is not coming back.

You better face your future and keep dearly the history your Dad passed to you while he was alive.

Another elder is in town, mark my words, your own time will come as an elder.

But for now ......face your future, contribute your own quota to family and community bonding.

Culture / Re: Eze Eri & His Chiefs Wearing Jewish Apparel (Photos) by wolebest: 8:09pm On Oct 24, 2023
gidgiddy:
It is a general belief amongst most Igbo the progenitor of the Igbo race was a man called "Eri" who founded the Iduu Eri Kingdom in Nri, present day Anambra, from where all Igbo come from. It is also believed that Eri himself was a member of one the 12 tribes of Israel.

The King of Nri, the Eze Eri, HRM Eze Chukwuemeka Eri, is the " Aka Ji ofor Igbo", which makes him the sacred custodian of Igbo culture.

Eze Chukwuemeka Eri regularly wears Jewish apparel and the Star of David, his entire cabinet of chiefs wear the same.

Wether the Igbo nation has its roots in Israel or not is left for the experts to decide, however, most Igbos, despite being Christians, see Israel as their spiritual capital, and their support for the state of Israel is unflinching.


The lost tribe of Igbo land ......!!!

Religion / Re: My Pastor Rejected Anniversary Money Because It's Too Small by wolebest: 9:40am On Oct 23, 2023
Donkogbe:
Something happened in my church yesterday and its so strange to me.

Yesterday was the youth anniversary so the youth president has been soliciting for funds and yes people complied and myself also. it was time for thanksgiving and all youth danced to the altar then the pastor openly reject the money contributed by the youth to the amount of 50k in the sense that its too small and also making reference to 2years ago when the youth as at that time bought the church drum set to the amount of 250k. he rejected the money and prayed for us.

This is has been disturbing my mind since yesterday and i am just wondering how a pastor will openly reject amount contributed by people.

note this is not mandatory donations and a man of God reject 50k in this economy of Tinubu? i am just having a mix feelings and its disturbing. what your view on this

Kano has land... Has lots of rivers that can be dammed

Kano can bring out 200,000 hectares without stress ... That's over 200 hectares per couple

800 million used can provide.... 400 million for tractors and 400 million for seeds... Get another 600 million for fertilizers

200 hectares at worse can yield 3 tons per hectares minimum if good seeds are used

That's 600 tons per person say worse still 500 tons... That's 5000 bags of corn... Say each bag is sold for 45,000 ... That's

That's 22 million per head they can be settled for life


No let's waste it on weeding give them bed to fvck and make babies

Daddy GO should have called for peace instead.

He should have used the opportunity to appeal to world leaders to help put a stop to the carnage on both sides and the world over.

There are wars going on in Ukraine, Syria, Yemen, internal wars in Nigeria etc.

I wonder what will happen if peace is restored.....how will RCCG convince the Palestinian Christians that they are of one body ?

Very funny

This has no bite.

OBJ stated the obvious, we have all submitted our sovereignty to an elected representative.

As matter of protocol, monarchs are expected to stand up to receive the Governor at any event. If they choose not to, they risk being deposed.

This is the Federal Republic of Nigeria. No monarch has any constitutional role or significance in a Republic.

Monarchs are subservient to the State Governor and Local Government Chairman.

How can a Territory be superior or equal to a State?

FCT is administered by the President through the FCT Minister, it has no State Assembly, no Governor......

When I read of how he died in abject poverty in ibadan makes me want to cry for him…. I won’t say Nigeria failed him, because Nigeria gave him the platform and he went ahead to become a super star and made lots of money.
But I think education or proper planning kill him…
