But you sef reason am, we have it under control without their help. As at today, we have 0 new cases, 0 death while China after all their expertise has 62 new cases and 2 deaths. So who needs help?

Why couldn't they share their expertise as they claim via conference call?

Oga keep quiet.

I have noticed that most of you here, like to force false claims and make it out to be true in your arguments.

Forcing statements I didnt say, forcing statements others didnt say. Always arguing without facts but with sentiments.

Jumping to conclusions at the slightest whim.

I have also seen how people in this forum can easily be deceived because they cant think for themselves and are also arrogant with their perceived knowledge. Especially both on the divide i.e Those who think 5g can cause the virus and also those who dont think so because they think they are knowledgeable (when in fact they dont know jack). I would have loved to address those on the latter more because of how I see them spilling junk on what they think is 5G is. But why bother.

While you guys are constantly busy being forced to choose between 2 parties, 2 options, 2 ways of thinking e.t.c. The third party is behind the scenes riding on your deluded minds.

You assume because you read a textbook in school and read some articles online, you think you know. But the Atheists as well as many so called religious folks are already greatly deceived.

So why did I write all this? Because you are deceived, but you dont know it.

...the ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, the one deceiving the whole world—was thrown down to the earth with all his angels.

I tried so hard to make sense of this, but nothing.
If you'll be honest, you're very confused.

Simply because, Islam is a volatile religion that encourages muslims to fight and kill for Allah.

BTW, if you do have something to share in the islam section, why not click the oath knowing it's just words that you don't truly believe? Or do you see it as denouncing your faith?

Coronavirus is not God’s way of punishing or teaching the world any lesson. Quit attributing to God the very destructive works of the devil.
Source: https://www.feedmejesus.com/2020/03/god-believer-and-coronavirus.html

Good piece.
However, here's my comment on the quoted.
God is not only Merciful, He is also Judgement.
Deut 32:39
2 Cor 12:7-9
1 Cor 10:13
Isaiah 53:10
1 Peter 5:10

However, this is not to affirm or support those attributing the coronavirus pandemic to God's punishment.
I believe God would have revealed such to his prophets first, which wasn't the case.

To abide in Christ means to continue in his teaching.
I believe those who are born of God will keep his teaching.
I believe the bible teach conditional security but only those who are born of God can meet such conditions.

I once opened a thread about the error of OSAS.
However, I have come to find that what gives credence to this notion is that the scriptures support both claims. Hence, the endless arguments.

As you have pointed out, there are scriptures that support OSAS. Likewise there are scriptures that negate it.
What then? Shall we say the bible contradicts it self or that God is an author of confusion?

I believe that's part of the mystery of God's ways.
We just have to live by faith.

wman:
Lol. So many conspiracy theories flying around.

I like Pastor Chris and respect him a lot, but I don't believe this.

Which one is true?

1. The virus is caused by 5G

2. China created the virus to dominate the West.

3. American soldiers that participated in the 2019 Wuhan Military World Games brought the virus to China.

4. Bill Gates and co created the virus as a population control scheme.

5. The New World Order will create a vaccine for the virus to rule the world

6. Democrats created the virus in conjunction with others to bring down the government of Donald Trump

7. Donald Trump created the virus and waited till it spread so much in the USA, so he'll emerge victorious and win the November elections easily.

8. Coronavirus doesn't exist. You only get it from the test kits.

9. There is no coronavirus in Nigeria. The government is using it to make money.

10. Coronavirus doesn't exist. They are using the opportunity of people staying indoors to lay 5G cables.

Where there's a deluge of information, validating the Truth becomes almost impossible.

It's good everyone is now researching to find out the truth but can we even trust the source of our research?

I'm at the point where I just nod along to every new information whether conspiracy theory or not.

My advice, let's all just be careful.

That's a good order

Ignorance is a disease, killing faster than coronavirus.
WHO says face masks are only essential for the sick and the health workers.
It has even been asserted that one stands more chance of contracting the virus through face masks and hand gloves as they can give you a false sense of safety and make you careless.

So I wonder, did this governor consult with any health practitioners before making this ignorant declaration?

Or I suspect he has also ventured into the face mask business and trying to secure his investment.

He is waiting for the government to beg him, so that they will have something to chestbeat.

They will even one day in the future claim that; "if not for Innoson, Nigeria would not have arrested the coronavirus outbreak".

Tribalism will eventually kill Nigeria if we don't kill it.
The average igbo is a tribalistic bigot. Always seeing tribal undertone in everything.
Even if you were not tribalistic before, once you come in contact with them, they make you tribalistic.

Biafra killed the igbo tribe, not only physically but also mentally.
Only few igbos that have evolved are not tribalistic in their outlook of life.

Romance / Re: Ladies: Before you feel the butterflies. by pressplay411(m): 9:41am On Apr 04, 2020
Toks2008:
Have you ever heard these words from ladies?, "I know John truly wants me but i dont have any feelings for him but i have strong feelings for Jude yet he is treating me like trash"

Ladies are ruled by their feelings but unfortunately, many ladies have been sent to their early graves cos of this same feelings and many are down with mental illness and some are even locked up in psychiatry all in the name of feelings.

Now understand this; your feelings are very important but you also have the power to control it. Not every man who approaches you for romance really desires you and not every man who proposes marriage really wants you for the right reason so you need to really have a strong grip on your feelings and the first step to achieving this is to be self-sufficient in all ramifications to avoid hinging your feelings on the material things the guy can offer but rather on his true intent which is expressed in how he treats you.

Every lady has Phronesis(A type of wisdom or intelligence) that enables her know if a man sincerely wants her but she usually develops feelings for another who will most likely treat her like trash.

Your feelings can destroy you if channeled towards the wrong person so no matter how attractive that guy may look, no matter how sweet and smooth he sounds, no matter the material things he showers on you, no matter how good he is in bed, as vital as these qualities are, please always press the pause button on your feelings and observe him carefully for the right attributes. Yes people do change but a man who truly desires you will most likely always desire you regardless.


The movie Beauty and the beast is more than a fiction...one secret ladies don't know is that they can develop feelings for any guy who truly desires them and treats them like a queen even if that guy is totally opposite of what they want in terms of physical looks...this is a mystery... so put your feelings on hold and observe keenly then give your feelings to a guy that is deserving of it.

I know this is extremely difficult for many ladies but it is the only way you can reduce the possibility of ending up in the wrong hands.

Hope this makes sense.

Well said. But the heart is a dangerous device. Wanting what destroys it.

It's human nature to want to feel superior to other races, tribes, religion, etc.
We do the same here.

The way yorubas and igbos see hausas as if they were animals below their own tribe.
It has become so normal they do it unconsciously and it is acceptable without anyone even cringing to it.

Some times I try to correct people when they make derogatory remarks about another tribe but I realise it's useless as it just human nature that has so eaten deep it isn't easy to do away with.

Religion / Coronavirus: Pastors Demanding Tithes And Offering Online by pressplay411(m): 8:33am On Mar 22, 2020
The Coronavirus pandemic has become the plague of our modern time with a victim toll of over 200,000 and death toll of over 11,000 globally. It has for the first time in recent time closed down all schools, social gatherings and religious gatherings. In fact, some states and countries are in a lockdown.

Unprecedentedly, religious groups in Nigeria are barred from holding service/jumat/gathering to prevent the spreading of the virus.

While the Muslim community has adhered to this instruction, the Christian community is still finding alternative measures to ensure that the service must hold.
Until last night, most churches still planned on holding services with a selected congregation of not more than 50 members. However, with the new directive from some states, the limit of social gatherings has been reduced to 20 members.

However, what has become rather shocking is that, some pastors have mandated members to ensure the payment of their tithes and offerings through their online medium as a testimony of their undying faith even in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Some observers have questioned the motives of these pastors for prioritizing tithes and offering even in the face of the ongoing pandemic.

As one of the comments on the tweet rightly quizzed, has there been any recorded death in Nigeria?
While it is a global pandemic, I believe for some reason, it is not yet an emergency in Africa, especially Nigeria. Perhaps due to our Climate condition or our Melanin composition or our Immune system strength.
