It is obvious that Peter Obi is living rent free in your head. You see Him everywhere, even in a case that does not concern him and a judgement that was delivered long before the elections.

is he the 27-year-old suspected cultist called Ahmed Ololade aka Small Mercy?

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”.

It's illegal to expose face of criminal suspect in Lagos, as they are not yet convicted nor even an accused till charged to Court

Yet, until he is charged to court , he is just a suspect.

BananaPeel:


Tithing is a commandment and others such as offering,giving to less privileged etc. is a proof of your love for God. Only tithe has a formula and that's the reason a lot of people talk it down.

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.

Bunkum and balderdash!

Did he replicate same gestures in Anambra, and what was his achievements and legacy`s?

Coming from same man who stashed money in safe havens to avoid taxes and investigation!

Anyone can scribble the gibberish he put up there.

From the way Peter talks, one would think he has some outstanding legacy`s on ground which puts him in position to make such composition, but the reverse is the case. Even the present Governor of Anambra attested to the fact that, poverty increased in the state during his administration, and here we have same Peter oinking on what's not!

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.

jesusjnr2020:
Will A Sinner Who Pays Tithe Make Heaven?

If we go by the teachings of Jesus, he certainly won't make heaven.

Jesus said "unless you repent, you shall likewise perish!" Luke 13:13.

He also said no sinner shall make it into heaven. Matthew 13:41.

So do not deceived by those church leaders who preach tithing above the most important things in the law, such as, repentance of sins, that have made many sinners in the church think that it is more important to pay tithes than to turn away from their sinful ways.

They are blind leaders of the blind just as the Pharisees in the days of Jesus who did the same thing, but Jesus called them the "children of hell" regardless of their paying of tithes because inwardly they were full of iniquity. Matthew 13:15,28

So although paying of tithes is a good thing, if you don't repent of your sins, it cannot save you from hell!

You need to repent of your sins!

God bless.

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.

Kobo, If any oyibo company wants to do dam work in most river, they usually offer sacrifices.

They hire a spiritualist who understands the gods present in that river.

I have seen this before, not once or twice.

Is it that they believe in such practices or they are just respecting the beliefs and values of their host communities?

3.one headmaster burnt idol worshipped by his father in front of their family house
Then at night they were throwing stones on his roof.

Whether u believe it or not

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.

Did you see him as a wall gecko? How do you know the Mad Woman was healed? How are you sure he was telling your father the truth? Why didn’t he just use jazz to control your father? Or why didn’t he turn into a wall gecko to steal the contract papers and award it to himself?

The mother sense that it will be miserable life for the girl to be lockdown in marriage that happened in a mistake or likely abandoned to become a single mother, which sounds like a threat according to your gender.





I don't understand @bolded .How is the child theirs? thought man is said to own a child cuz the woman is a stranger?.

He was ready to accept responsibility but you are blinded by your bias against a gender.

Meanwhile, If you don’t know that the Mother of the young lady aborted her own grandchild, then you need a dictionary.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Released Hostage Says He Was Held By UNRWA Teacher In Gaza. by TheGift: 11:03am On Nov 30, 2023
Shoodboi:
Danielle Aloni, one of the hostages, wrote a letter to Hamas after her release, thanking them for the care they showed for her and her daughter. Below is a picture of her, her daughter, and the letter.

Lifshitz, another hostage, after her release said "Hamas treated us gently and met all our needs" during a media interview.

And yet, one person we don't know, who doesn't have a photo, claims he was held by a teacher while another said he was held by a doctor.

How did he know he was a teacher?
Did the teacher come there with a lesson note to teach him?

Let's keep the propaganda rolling. Yesterday, Israel shot and killed Palestinian two children in Jenin, in the West Bank. One was shot in the head. The other was shot several times in the body.

Similarly, Israel bombed Al-Shifa hospital this morning with artillery, breaking a man's leg at the knee. (Till today, they still haven't shown us the tunnels in Al-Shifa.)

In another video, Israeli soldiers had a Palestinian man kneel in their front while they opened fire on God-knows-who.

You all won't report that. Nairaland mods will never take those kinds of topics to the frontpage.

But once, it's one about Israel, they throw it quickly to the frontpage just to keep the propaganda going and justify the killing of children, pregnant women, and premature babies, and the bombing of schools and hospitals.

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.

When I was with my wife I never cheated on her, loved her and she knows... I think the only issue was my unstable finance then and her parents ungodly attitude that really irritates me( I should have managed it better though).
We have seperated and her divorce case in court but I don't stop thinking about her against all odds.
I have dated NUMEROUS ladies while she left yet it doesn't help me forget, whereas, she never look back...

Divorced persons, how do you forget! I want to feel love again. I cannot marry or be with anyone if I don't love them, sex is truly overrated. Your suggestions pls.

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.

Family / Re: I Love Her But At Almost 40 Years Old, I Cannot Ignore Her Fertility Issues. by TheGift: 2:50pm On Nov 28, 2023
beekind:
I am the 2nd born out of 2 children, my elder brother has been married for some time with no kids as a result I am super careful with issues relating to fertility.
I am in my late 30s and have been dating a 27 year old lady for 4 months now, the relationship moved so fast as she is a perfect match for me .
I have met her family and she has met mine, we are already planning marriage and have started counselling sessions in her church.

She complained of irregular periods so I told her to do a hormonal profile test and see a gynecologist, turns out she has got PCOS.

I have done my own fertility test and I am fine, I am at a cross road now, I cannot afford to struggle with child birth considering my age and also my only other sibling still also having issues with the wife also still trying to get pregnant after many years.

The only other option would have been to ask her to try for pregnancy before marriage but she is a virgin and wants to keep it that way till wedding, besides if I disvirgin her, how will I be able to walk away incase she doesn't get pregnant ?

I am at crossroads now, its not too late but walking away at this point will be very costly for me since we have already started plans towards the wedding and our families are already in touch.

My heart is heavy and I am confused, I need good advise as I cannot discuss this with anyone.



Are you marrying for love and companionship or are you marrying to have children? If it is for children then you really don’t need to be married to have children. Marriage is really about companionship , if you are not ready for that with her please stop wasting her time any further.
Properties / Re: Lady Damages Her Apartment After Landlord Refused To Refund Her Caution Fee by TheGift: 2:56pm On Nov 27, 2023
dominique:
She deserves to be arrested, is the caution fee worth the amount of damages she caused? How many months did she live there rent free? Tenants believe if they're given six months quit notice, they're free to live in the apartment rentfree till the duration elapses. How much did she stay without paying rent before finally moving out? The landlord must make sure she pays for every single damage caused, pay for the extra months she stayed then give her the caution fee. Insufferable people like these is why some of us are weary about building apartments for rent.

You have already concluded the matter without getting answers to your questions.

Are you saying that farm workers in Nigeria are better than their counterparts in Canada?

Secondly, Becoming a farmer in Nigeria comes with my risks and uncertainties.

It depends on what kind of farm worker you are talking about. But my point is many of us will travel half way across the world to do stuff we are ashamed of doing here. Meanwhile, if we could just put that shame aside. I know a graduate in Nigeria who started working as a cleaner in Nigeria, now he has a cleaning company that employs a lot of people. Because he was able to put shame aside and find dignity in his ow labour.

Sometimes when I think of our best brains , shipping out in their prime to go and do menial jobs in faraway lands , it reminds me of a second slavery. Only this time, we are the ones giving up and selling all that we have worked for to go and become slaves.

Note this does not apply to everyone. But many people are running away from without knowing what they are running to and why.

Comparing in a inflated currency will always make the naira equivalent seem cheaper, but school fees is free, and you have access to the US and other countries without applying for visa, that's a plus.
Yes school fees is free, but what if what they are teaching your kids in school does not make them free?

If you are like my friend in Canada, who doesn’t want his children to grow up on values he doesn’t not support , like gay marriage or gender fluidity , then you will still end up going to pay for a private “Christian” school.

That free education you are talking about, comes at a cost that is not money.
