We complain about brain drain and here we are advertising the brain to be drained!🙄

He might just be representing the President at the next UNGA🧐

Using an iPhone is supporting LGBTQ. I can't use a product whose CEO is gay, or whose ideology is unacceptable. Good riddance.

Notice how he signed his name at the end of the farewell letter. Just Tim. Nothing else
If it's a Nigerian now you'll be seeing High Chief Dr. Tim Cook (CFR, FSMC, BSc, Msc, PhD, etc)
Nigerians will never pass up the chance to show off😂

C'mon, Don't call me Tony!!! Don't!!!!

Penguin2:
“He said the proposed government would be anchored on four principles: competence, integrity, national inclusion and fair representation.”

The question now is between Atiku and Obi, who falls into this bracket?

Little baby ,When Buhari and his cohorts travel to US to Tarnish Jonathan Image ,It wasn't Desperation.

There is no such thing as an embarrassment awaiting President Tinubu. Every statement made by Von the Atiku lobbyist will be fact-checked by the U.S. Government for correctness before President Trump is advised to keep an appointment with President Tinubu. Meanwhile take a look at the attached document that Von pretends to not know about. I’m convinced President Tinubu is allowing Von fool around.

Thats's how much Abubakar Atiku loves Nigeria. He is so desperate about becoming the President that he does not mind bringing down the roof on himself and Tinubu and the country. He will fail. Von is working to justify his fees.

Abubakar Atiku must be on the ballot. Peter Obi will do well to be nominated as his Vice-President while Rotimi Amaechi and Donald Duke and the SDP Candidate can be lined up for key Ministerial posts.

TimeManager:
This lobbying guy is using the head of the bitter pipu to play table tennis. He knows the more he tweets about this dead rubber issue, the more it excites their followers hoping in vanity. Even Hundeyin had long knew it all ends in futility and that's why he had stopped wasting his energy a wild goose chase.

-Kiss the truth!

Von must justify the fees.

Agree with God's word because it is the truth

I thought we were sharing the word together. I am not in an argument with you here. I agree with the word of God. He upholds all things by the word of His power! Acts 10:38 is very clear on the place of Power in life and ministry. Power shreds frustration! Philippians 3:10 is very explicit that knowing God grants access to the power of His resurrection resident in a Christian since Acts 1:8 you shared elaborately.

One reason I like Trump is that he tells us what we already know and is not given to hiding behind a finger!! It is not in doubt that Iran will pay in full the cost of the war it is fighting with USA!!!

ocnovakmichael:
Acts 1:8
[8]But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

I'd suggest you read that text in this manner: "After that the Holy Ghost is come upon you, ye shall receive ability - the knowledge to witness unto me..."

Growing up as a child in the 90s I attended a primary school that was ran by Catholic missionaries. On our school badge was the school moto: "Knowledge is power." I didn't understand that phrase until the grew up and discovered that the most influential and powerful men of this world are those with a specialized kind of knowledge. The likes of Elon Musk, Bill Gate, Peter Thiel, Dangote, Einstein etc.

This brings home the idea that Jesus wants his disciples to be influential and powerful upon the earth in bringing many to Christ that is reason he sent the Holy Ghost upon them to endue them with the knowledge of the things of God's.

You see, many believers are still waiting for a "power surge" kind of experience when they talk about receiving the Holy Ghost.
They expect to shake, to shout, or fall under the anointing so powerfully during this experience. But that’s not what Jesus meant in Acts 1:8

Permit me to hold your hand and take you through the Scriptures.

We need to understand that the purpose of the Spirit upon a man is KNOWLEDGE
1 Corinthians 2:12 tells us why God gave us the Spirit:
"Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; *that we might know* the things that are freely given to us of God."

While the spirit of the world brings confusion, fear, and anxiety.
The Spirit of God brings KNOWLEDGE.
The word knowledge in Greek `gnosis` means insight, revelation, understanding.

Put slightly differently, If the Spirit is upon you, your primary evidence should be that you KNOW God more.

The "Power" in Acts 1:8 Is not an electric surge kind of experience, rather it is the power to testify about Jesus accurately.
Look closely at the verse. Jesus didn’t stop at "you shall receive power". He gave the purpose of that power: "...and ye shall be WITNESSES unto me"

In my undergraduate days at the university I did a course in philosophy "The Aristotle Four Principles of Causation." And one of those principles is causa finalis known as the principle of finality, which state that there's a final purpose of any thing, word, or idea. The final purpose of a car is not luxury but to commute man from point A to B at the least amount of time.

So, the purpose of "power" in Acts 1:8 is the knowledge to witness Christ. A witness in court doesn’t need the theatrics of demonstration. A witness needs FACTS.
He needs to know what he saw, what he heard, and be able to explain it clearly.

You cannot witness what you do not know.
That’s why Jesus said in John 15:26-27:
"But when the Comforter is come... he shall testify of me: And ye also shall bear witness." In other words, the Spirit testifies of Christ first in us. Then we testify the same message.

We must understand that power without knowledge is just noise. This is why we have a lot of noise in the church but few witnesses:
Romans 10:2 "They have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge."

The apostles in Acts didn’t just shake. They preached with knowledge. You see, before the Holy Ghost came upon the apostles, Jesus sent them out to preach but they preached Christ they didn't know. They preached the kingdom without knowledge. But after the Holy Ghost came upon them and they receive the knowledge of the things of God by the Spirit, Peter stood and quoted Joel, Psalms, and David for 10 verses in Acts 2:16-36. That’s knowledge. Stephen gave Israel’s entire history from Abraham to Moses Acts 7. That’s knowledge. And Paul reasoned with the Jews out of the scriptures for three Sabbath days (three weeks) Acts 17:2-3. That’s knowledge.

Put somewhat differently, the "power" was clarity, boldness, and conviction that came from knowing.

In conclusion, the Holy Spirit came to make us Knowledgeable of the things of God. The Holy Spirit did not come upon you to make you vibrate and have a spiritual sensation, he came upon you to make you KNOW.

A better way to read Acts 1:8 is " After that the Holy Ghost is come upon you, you shall receive the ability to know and declare Me..." because scripture says, "...we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God."



Do not hoard knowledge, propagate!

Jesus is Lord

In the end the focus is power! Knowledge lets you into power!

Omo Nigerians really deserve the runnish they get.

In Nigeria as said by General Olusegun Obasanjo election is war. Who goes to war without first accessing his weapons and putting his men and strategy together 🧐🧐🧐. When he returns his older brother Atiku will struggle to catch his breath!

I should think he himself is ignoble. He should have us know how he stands.

She is insane

For saying food should be prepared in the dream! Why don't you leave her and dream husband to have their dream party where they enjoy their dream Amala and Gbegiri.

1vandragon:
Then mind your business and let those who have taken it upon themselves to expose the drug dealing past of the president do what needs to be done.

I know you will mind your business and let everybody have their say.

1vandragon:
Bat is the president. As a citizen, don't you want to know the past of your president?

If you dont want to know, keep quiet let those that are interested in knowing ask reasonable questions.

Why not? I do want to know for sure!! Just like folks want to know so also he has a right to say do not disclose for whatever reasons. Good and decent and fair minded citizens will await and abide by the decision of the court in the matter and not tell other citizens to "keep quiet"!

Stanna2025:
One man. Too many controversy. No one knows his origin. No one can pinpoint his real parents or relatives. We might just have a demon in human clothing as president

Just like in some people's strange imagination we had a Jubril from Sudan in Buhari when he was President!

Pythagon:
there are privacy laws, but Tinubu is not just a normal private person. He is the president of Nigeria, so I need to know about his past dealings.

If some parts of the documents are private or sensitive, they can simply be covered or removed. But that doesn't mean the whole thing should be hidden.

. If there is nothing serious in the documents, they should release them

Worst case scenario ruling for Tinubu! That should confirm or dismiss the position of Atiku on whether Tinubu is guilty of some drug related wrong the which disentitles him from The Presidency.

BATified2023:
Tinubu get sense pass all of u

He will keep u busy with this till he wins again n after winning he will tell them to release it so u can know u are phuuuls

Somehow I suspect that Tinubu is deploying this to his advantage like Lagbaja who enjoyed his anonymity while it lasted.

1vandragon:
What is bat so scared of about his past?

Since the US security agencies are reluctant to release the records, why bother joining the matter if there is truly nothing to hide?

Nigerians deserve to know 'who' their president 'was'...

It is not that you will do likewise if it concerns you. No barber or hair stylist can work on your hair in your absence!

kunyeo:
A lot of Nigerians are simply stupid.The whole story of files being released or not being released is a mere distraction by BAT! Dont be deceived.Smart guys like Sowore are not talking,that should tell you something.It is a mere chase in futility!

BAT, for sure, knows what the files contain. He keeps Atiku in suspense!

moscow007:
Nigerians should brace for impact, Because if they eventually determine that this file will be released no matter what they do, they might try to pull off a grand national tragedy that could distract people from the main news.

In an attempt to obscure such a monumental indicting news a stronger news will be manufactured.

The court is likely to refuse Greenspan request. Atiku has not hidden that the reasons he seeks the release are political. The law says that a public reason must exist for the sought release of the file.

‘I will destroy you’ – El-Rufai’s son, Bashir publicly threatens elder brother, Bello

The rift between Bashir El-Rufai and his elder brother, Mohammed Bello El-Rufai, sons of former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, appears not to be over, as Bashir has again threatened to destroy the lawmaker.

DAILY POST reports that Bashir took to his X handle on Saturday to attack his elder brother, who represents Kaduna North Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, accusing him of abusing drugs.

Although the exact cause of the dispute has not been ascertained, it may not be unconnected with Bello’s political choices, particularly in Kaduna State.

In a more recent post, Bashir publicly threatened to destroy his brother, saying, “I will destroy you & climb my bed and sleep peacefully.”

“If you destroy your brother, no one will see you as a hero. The more you try to destroy him, the more you destroy yourself and drag your family’s name through the mud.

“If you need someone to talk to, I am here,” he said in his reply to Bashir’s post.

Responding, Bashir wrote, “Sorry sir. Had to be said.”

Another X user, Dr Ibrahim Yaji, condemned Bashir for threatening to destroy the lawmaker.

“I kept telling my friend earlier that the joke is on Bashir. I can never trust anybody who can do this to his own blood.

“Even if my sibling kills my child, I won’t destroy him like this. No, my parents didn’t bring us up this way,” he wrote.

But Bashir quickly dismissed the comment, saying, “That’s you o. And I’m sure you had a good brother.”

The sword will never depart from the house of El-Rufai!
The phrase "the sword shall never depart from his house" means that his family will face endless violence, conflict, and tragedy.
The house of the wicked will know no peace and when he dies his wife will have dreams seeing him splitting logs of wood 🪵

jesusjnr2020:
What many don't seem to understand is that preaching the Gospel of Jesus has always been a risky thing, so being arrested, persecuted, or even killed for preaching the Gospel outdoors isn't a new thing.

It happened during the days of the apostles and early Christians, as they were persecuted and some of them were even killed for this purpose but that didn't stop the preaching and spread of the Gospel of Jesus.

I myself suffered persecution, and had been arrested and beaten by policemen 25 years ago for preaching the Gospel of Jesus on the streets, but it didn't stop me because I am still doing same up til date.

So if they think they could stop the preaching or spread of the Gospel by persecuting, arresting, beating, fining street preachers, they're only deceiving themselves.

Because not even the gates of hell could stop the preaching and spread of the Gospel of Jesus in this world.

God bless.

Amen!

Are the dollar speculators still in business?

No one is making noise about dollar don go up.

Are these not strong foundation being laid for future prosperity?

Association of mhorunz, scammers and dregs of the society. I cant wait for January 2027 when they will finally be discarded like used sanitary pads into the dustbins of our political history
