inphoenix: You may scream much but it doesn't change the fact. My friends' kids were taken away last month over absolutely nothing, just a "hunch" that the kids were not safe. I have a few other LIVE examples in South Wales and Bristol. I used to think like you before but after being involved in some cases and speaking to 3 Social Workers, I realized it's neither a joke nor scaremongering. And yes, "because she born pikin, she must carry the pikin for head everywhere" if she has to. She has to ALWAYS ensure the child is in safe conditions, failure to do so can mean losing the kid. Of course, she should have a social life, but the Government must not deem the child neglected in the process of her social life. A word is enough for the wise sha. 17 Likes |

inphoenix: It is not a tick box excercise. Don’t say what you don’t know because you want to seem nice and reassuring. Let the person be careful and take advice from people with direct knowledge. It’s not a matter of alarming her but of making sure she’s fully aware of how things can pan out, and that she takes the neccessary precautions going forward. 3 Likes |

Solumtoya: Tithing is a scam and those religious leaders benefiting from it are committing fraud. If this bothers you then deep down you know i'm telling you the truth. Read your bible, when tithing was practiced in old testament it was not about money and never paid monthly. 7 Likes |

Solumtoya: Pele o, Mr wise, ologbon Sodiki. Abeg rest! I am not even making a case for her social life, in fact, my position is quite the opposite. The lady went as far as installing cameras to keep an eye on their child while they're away, and you're here repeating safe safe as if a child can only be safe when the parent is there!!! You can agree or die!!! there is no law or minimum age when a child can be left home alone as long as the child is mature enough and there is no cause for concern (i.e risk)!!! Secondly, a cause of concern must be real to warrant taking a child away, it cannot be over a mere "hunch", you clearly don't know what you're saying... Its either your friend is not telling you the truth about their negligence or you're just here telling lies!!! Stop scaring people please, and don't be a hypocrite!!! Na una go carry church and bible for head, and na for inside the same bible you carry for head that it is said that "God has not given us the spirit of fear", yet here you are literally doomsplaining on top a matter that has been handled. One of the many reasons why a lot of people don't take you religious people seriously. Hian!!! 1 Like |

koonbey: Funny how you know for a fact that I'm saying "what I don't know", or that I don't have direct knowledge. Is it because I'm not dropping "LIVE" anecdotes about "my friend in Bristol"? It's like the only precaution that will satisfy you people is for her to tie her (11yo) daughter to her waist and go around the streets of London with her |

justwise:It is not surprising that a mod is flagrantly violating one of the rules (1) of this platform. You exemplify Nigeria lawmakers who are at the same time law breakers. I'm certain you would hide this post if it was done by someone else and probably ban them too. That said, saying tithing, a practice held in high esteem by Christians, is a scam online is highly insulting. In fact, this is cyber bullying and I'm not sure if this is what this platform is turning into. 12 Likes |

Dotman23: Woolwich, Plumstead and Thamesmead have historically been the cheapest areas in Greenwich, so if too expensive your friend could try looking further afield along the Dartford line for example which has direct trains to Woolwich. |

hustla: Some churches here even collect members January salaries in the name of First Fruit, I mean ALL your January salary and still collect tithes and offerings. They turned Christianity into a religion of fear intimidation and manipulation. We grew up believing a lot of nonsense from these dubious religious leaders and no one is allowed to ask questions. 10 Likes |

Make I ask you Na you be the police officer wey talk to the pikin without the mama ? You know wetin dem discuss? You never see when officer they reassure you meanwhile case dey happen for back Na why home office dey always ask for more documents when people they apply for only dem and their child without the second parent to avoid cases like this especially if the person dey study. People here say be careful, take the whole case serious, e better that way and it ends up being nothing than to say na tick box exercise when the case dey build for back inphoenix: 1 Like |

Greenpeasants1: I don't have patience for stupid talks like this. The lady clearly narrated her circumstances and what transpired, and how the matter was resolved, but you lot are here creating scenarios in your head!!! No 2 circumstances are the same and hers was resolved in her favour. I have not said she should not be careful, all I have said is that she should not send her child back to Nigeria because social services were called!!!! I am not responsible for your ignorance. You all have ignored every other thing I said and keep taking this "tick box" thing literally I repeat again, from my personal experience, once police is called on ANY matter (i.e not only about staying home alone) involving a child, as a matter of practice, a social worker will be called to conduct a risk assessment, which is just a bunch of questions to determine if any further action is required. If no serious cause for concern is found, the matter dies there!!! (except another report is made of course) I was telling the lady not to be scared that a social worker was involved because it is standard practice and she needs not just ship her child off to Nigeria because of this incident, but you're here arguing "case dey build for back" as if you're the police officer or social worker in charge!!! You people like arguing for the sake of it and refuse to pay attention to context. I don't ever speak on what I don't know, and it is sad that shallow minded, ignorant people like to run people's lives in this Youkay wey we all dey on top "dem say". It's people like you who call police and social services on people because of a "hunch" - sad, bitter people!!! 🙄 4 Likes |

justwise: Without fear, religion will cease to exist but people willingly give out tithe for reasons best known to them. I mean there's a UK Pastor wearing £30K LVs and £300K Patek wristwatches but people will still give the tithe. You really cant help someone who is being scammed until their eyes open, wake up and smell the coffee I think everyone needs to watch this cartoon "Sausage Party". It's a subtle dig at religion and very funny ![]() To each his own, your money, your religion, your tithe As for me sha, I have never paid tithe and I will never give any Pastorpreneur 1 Cent to goan use for Gucci shoes ![]() Gucci sef go fit me na 3 Likes |
