Look at the numbers of bullets that hit this house, just to pull it down and get at Biafrans, the house refused. As of that time see the kind of building Igbo are building. Ụlọ mgbọ.

But why would my soulmate already have a child 😭

That would mean they thought someone else was their soulmate before me.

You're a man. Be smart. Cut off anyone who lies, use, and disrespects you. This includes family.

[KING CHIDI @guzu_p]

I will never understand the stupidity behind a woman surprised a man wants a woman who knows how to cook. Isn't your mother cooking for your father?

So you want a provider but can't cook for him?

You don't want a 50/50 man but a traditional man who'll provide fully but ain't a traditional woman who can cook?

So i should employ a chef to cook for me and my kids while I have a wife at home?

I have no mercy for the men who'll marry these gen z lazy women which the only thing they know how to do well is being a whore. You'll get the punishment you deserve.

The game might be brutal but it's still fair.

THE EUCHARIST: OUR HEAVENLY FOOD FOR THE JOURNEY OF LIFE

Solemnity of Corpus Christi, Year A
Deuteronomy 8:2-3, 14-16; 1 Corinthians 10:16-17; John 6:51-58

One of the realities of human life is that every journey requires nourishment. A traveler who refuses food along the way will eventually grow weak and collapse. This is true not only physically but spiritually. Life itself is a journey - with moments of joy and success, but also moments of exhaustion, temptation, disappointment, grief, confusion, and loneliness. Deep within the human heart there is a hunger that ordinary bread cannot satisfy. It is into this human reality that the readings of this Corpus Christi Sunday speak.

In the First Reading, Moses reminds the people of Israel about their journey through the wilderness. The desert was not merely a geographical location; it was a place of testing, dependence, and vulnerability. Israel discovered there that human beings cannot survive by their own strength alone. God fed them with manna from heaven, a mysterious bread they had never known before. Moses tells them that God did this to teach them that “not by bread alone does one live, but by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.”

The manna was therefore more than food; it was a sign of God’s providence and presence. Yet the manna could only sustain earthly life temporarily. Those who ate it eventually died. It pointed forward to something greater.

That greater reality is revealed in the Gospel when Jesus declares: “I am the living bread that came down from heaven.” In John 6, Jesus does not speak symbolically or vaguely. His listeners clearly understand the radical nature of His words when He says: “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life.” Many found this teaching difficult because Jesus was revealing something unprecedented: that He Himself would become food for the life of the world.

The Eucharist is therefore not merely a reminder of Jesus, nor merely a sacred symbol. It is the real presence of Christ - His Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. Historically, from the earliest centuries of Christianity, the Church has consistently believed this. The early Christians gathered for “the breaking of bread” because they recognized that the risen Christ remained truly present among them in the Eucharist.

This mystery is deeply connected to the life of the Trinity. The Father, out of love for the world, gives His Son. The Son offers Himself completely for our salvation. The Holy Spirit transforms bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ and transforms believers into one body in Christ. The Eucharist is therefore the love of the Triune God made visible and tangible.

This is why St. Paul says in the Second Reading that “the bread that we break” is a participation in the Body of Christ. The Eucharist not only unites us with Christ; it unites us with one another. We who receive one bread are called to become one body. A person cannot truly receive the Eucharist while deliberately holding on to hatred, division, injustice, or indifference toward others.

The tragedy today is that many people hunger spiritually while surrounded by material abundance. Some hunger for meaning, others for peace, forgiveness, hope, or love. Yet many continue searching in places that cannot truly satisfy. Jesus alone is the Bread that gives lasting life. Every Mass therefore becomes a divine encounter where heaven touches earth. Christ feeds weary pilgrims with heavenly food for the journey of life. The Eucharist strengthens us when we are weak, lifts us when we fall, and reminds us that we do not walk alone.

And so today, the Church invites us not merely to admire the Eucharist, but to hunger for it, cherish it, and allow it to transform our lives.

Wait gan sef... are we all mad in this country? You mean to tell me that kids of average and poor Nigerians are in captivity for over 2 weeks without being rescued, but the family of a former minister that was kidnapped was rescued within 3 days.

Are we a mad group of people? Are we crazy in this country?
