Politics / Re: Bishop Kukah Endorses ‘japa’, Encourages Young Nigerians To Leave by TheGift: 5:06pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
Kloenboi: You are right. That is what he said. I only paraphrased “realise” to “when their eyes clear” The truth is that Nigeria needs them , whether they realise it or not. But I wont argue against the argument that one may have to solve his own problems before he solves that of His country. But those who are thinking of what they can do for their country or communities, above what their country can do for them , don’t think of “Japa” as in running away, escaping to any and everywhere, without a sense of purpose. |

slaawomirr: Let’s leave Christianity and religion aside for starters. 1. Are you saying there is no creator? Or source of all creation? 2. If yes, to “1”, do you have proof? 3. If yes to “2”, please share. Then we can take it from there. 2 Likes |

The headline is highly misleading and most likely written to sensationalize his statement. He neither endorsed Japa syndrome nor encouraged them to leave. On the contrary, he says that Japa will create opportunities for those left behind to even compete globally. He also added that when the eyes of japa-items clear, they will realise that back home is where they are needed. Change this irresponsible headline |

GOTVee: "act like a Roman when in Rome" abi? No wonder you are talking like someone who is not born again, because you are in an unborn-again world. Believers are meant to stand for justice, that is what the Woman did, and for that she faced injustice. She sounds more born again than you, to me. 1 Like |

omoadeleye: What kind of question is this? Who presented the budget to the Senate if not the president? The ministries, departments and agencies prepare their various budget proposals. It is for the presidency to review, probe and prepare the final budget for presentation. 2 Likes |

Nonny95: He is probably talking about running across the border, to Niger Republic or Benin Republic. Meanwhile, I will never understand people who tell other people to Run away from , without telling them where they should run to. Just run away sha. Such a cowardly and/or purposeless thing to do. That’s how many are jumping from frying pan to fire. 1 Like |

nlfpmod: So simply because the project was not started by your administration it should be completed by your administration? So even if the project is of no real functional value or economic significance it must be completed simply because it was started? So even if there are more pressing economic issues , the project must be completed now now, in 2024? Na wa! 2 Likes |

lexy2014: Yes or Maybe, but the emphasis is on “suspected”. When he is charged to court, he becomes accused. Only after the trial MAY be be found “Guilty” and then sentenced to become A “Convict”. |

Religion / Re: Will A Sinner Who Pays Tithe Make Heaven? by TheGift: 4:33pm On Dec 03, 2023 |
BananaPeel: I know that this thing you are saying is not based on personal study but what your pastors have said. It has a formula that was under the Law. Believers in Christ are not Under the law. And if we claim be following the formula, then why are we not Paying tithe as God clearly laid out in Deuteronomy 14 and 28? As believers in Christ , we are not our own, that is to say that even what we have is not our own but we are stewards to use as pleasing into the Lord. Now if I decide that 100% of my Money is available as God wills for me to use, will you still come And ask me for a tithe ( 10%)? From where.? Tithe is based on the Law, and any one that I still under the Law is under bondage, for by the Law shall no Man be justified. |

CoronaVirusPro: It is clear you did not read before you wrote your response “ bunkum balderdash”. Don’t let your hatred for one Man translate to a fear and hatred for the obvious truth- assuming the number of FG delegates are as high as they say. And Whatever you want to say about Peter Obi You can’t say he was wasteful with state resources- especially traveling with an entourage , so the answer to your question is YES, he replicated same as what he preached When He was in government. 1 Like |

jesusjnr2020: This question is irrelevant, because contrary to the prevalent false teaching, believers in Christ are not under the Law the PAY tithes, rather they should give freely as they have received freely, each Man should give as He has purposed in His heart. Not under compulsion, but willingly and cheerfully for God loved a cheerful giver. |

Ndidi2: 1. Sounds like a people blaming their ethnic rivals for a common Misfortune of rivers drying up 2. Did you see her being buried in the ground by spirits or by worshippers of the gods who said no Market on Orie day? 3. So after the headmaster burnt the idol, the worst the idol could do was throw stones on his roof at night? Sounds like little children or disgruntled idol worshippers playing pranks to me. |

Shoodboi: So you just sit down in your house , thousands of miles away and decide which of the hostages you will believe? Why can’t they both be saying the truth. “Hamas was gentle with us” … after massacring over 1000 people in the most brutal way, is the funniest argument in support of Hamas that I have heard. I really think we Africans should stay out of taking sides on this conflict because neither the Jews nor the Arabs give a hoot about black Africans , to them we are monkeys and slaves , yet we are here fighting each other over two brothers of the same Father (Abraham/Ibrahim) who are unable to resolve their differences. |

GVTAsiwaju: Hmmmm… I have not had this experience before so I have no specific advice. But ultimately I know that our lives our ours to live and everything that comes to us in life is temporary. We need to let go , especially of things that are truly gone. If we don’t let go of something’s we will never discover even greater things in store for us. We live and we learn. Nobody has it all together. The most important thing is not your marital or social status but your internal status. Your sense of self , that is not driven by ego, shame or pride. But by equanimity and self acceptance. All things can actually work together for good. 5 Likes 1 Share |
