Dear Lord,
Instead of you to let South Africa win today, please take my President.
This is hard for me, especially as someone who loves his President so much - but it is a price I am willing to pay.
Instead of giving the Bathong Masafanizoka joy, please take my President.
@davido@AAdeleke_01 She stood for justice with integrity. Imagine if rightful winners of elections were declared winners in this country! Tinubu is the face of corruption the whole world.
It's obvious. He can't comprehend. Does not know where he is sometimes. And he's going for 2 term. Turnder will locate all them prepping him one by ok me or collectively
This is why the Nigerian government banned the teaching of history for 15 years. This is why they only started it now under a curriculum written by, literally, Boko Haram’s top scholar.
This is important history, not only for those who were victimized, but for all of Nigeria and the world. It must be known.
(This is a paragraph for a piece that I’m working on.)

In thirty months, the Caliphate’s blockade killed between one and three million people in a population of fourteen million — one in five Biafrans at the accepted figure, a kill rate comparable to Cambodia, exceeded in modern history only by Rwanda. The atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki — the most morally debated military action in history, memorialized in UNESCO sites visited by millions — killed approximately 200,000 people. The Biafran blockade killed ten to fifteen times as many. Military historians measure the horror of war by its ratio of civilian to combatant deaths. The First Chechen War, considered extreme, ran ten civilians killed for every fighter. Biafra ran one hundred to one. For every federal soldier who died, approximately one hundred Biafrans died — almost all of them children. It was not a war. It was extermination by starvation. The world built museums for Hiroshima. It forgot Biafra existed. And the machine that did it never stopped.

@HistoryVille He didn't win, please. He rigged his way through agberos, corrupt institutions like police, army and most corrupt ever, Judiciary. Wike too.
Dear Catholics, remember that from this evening, Saturday before the 5th Sunday in Lent, the crucifixes and other sacred images in our homes/Churches will be veiled in purple cloth. The Crucifix will remain covered until the celebration of the Lord’s Passion on Good Friday while other sacred images remain covered until the beginning of the Easter Vigil.
