Nice.

This na farewell message now

She's lying, her name is chinaza

No one knows the exact day that Jesus Christ will come back, but the Bible gives us the reference period when all things MUST be concluded including the establishment of the kingdom of God here on earth.

In the Book of Daniel 2:44, we are told that Christ will come during the days of trying to mix iron and clay. Now the incoming rulers of iron have said that they will not have anything to do with clay when they come in, and Daniel tells us that it is in the days of trying to mix iron and clay that the kingdom of Christ will be set up.

The days of trying to mix iron and clay ends on the 20th of January 2017

Let us all prepare to receive our Messiah, Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in our watchfulness and sobriety. He will be here on or before Friday 20th of January 2017

I wish someone can reiterate it loud enough for the political leaders that football is much more than just a sport. It is one of the biggest PR machines we have in the world today! They should stop toying with it.

You can imagine a Ukrainian being a self-confessed fan of Super Eagles and Nigeria by extension, just because of Mikel's impact in Chelsea. Now imagine the multiplier effect a well organised and productive football sector can have on the image of a country.
Brazil is one of the biggest beneficiaries of this image laundering tool. Despite the negative happenings, corruption, kidnappings, drug issues etc, the mere mention of Brazil elicits positive vibes from the nations of the world just because of the footballing exploits of the players and the National Teams.

This is what the folks in power must realize and use effectively. We can use football (and Sports in general) to launder Nigeria's image in the outside world and we can use it develop a united and patriotic spirit inside the nation.

Yes Sports is that powerful!

That's nice,

Life tho
Sometimes, people may make u feel irrelevant, or not needed, but unknown to u, there are set of people who adore u, cuz u are like a hero to them .

There is always someone out there who appreciates the little things we do even without our knowing. Big ups to both Mikel and the Fan.

Insipiration abi. This is actually quite touching.

And we did not value him that much in Nigeria.

Oh my! See love

all this grammar for only mikel

c. ronaldo own go be bible ni

Mikel is underrated

Yet many Nigerians still beefing despite his dedication to country and success.... especially Arsenal fans...
