Nigerians, please help me with whatever you can 🧎‍♀️🙏 please retweet
On the 16th of April, I received a call from a frightened teenager named Veronica.
She told me that her father had forced her into marriage sometime in March to a man in his forties.

She had been taken all the way from Cross River State to Plateau State, where she was trapped with a complete stranger.
We spent days trying to locate her because she didn't even know where she was.

I reported the case to the Chairperson of Child Protection in Plateau State, who then linked me with Vivien Abara. 💪 Together, we rescued her from that house, even though the man had already alerted security operatives within the area to prevent her escape.

At the police station, he kept talking about the ₦600,000 and other payments he had made to her father. Meanwhile, Veronica kept crying and insisting that she did not know him and wanted nothing to do with him.

Since then, I have moved her through two different temporary shelters across two geopolitical zones in Nigeria.

Today, we need your help to raise atleast ₦3,000,000 to support Veronica's feeding, education, welfare, accommodation, and skills training as she begins rebuilding her life.

Donate to: 0165410679
Union Bank - Bonnicare Foundation

If you cannot donate, please share this post. Every repost could bring us closer to someone who can help.

We have now found a caring family who has already taken her, but they need support to meet her daily needs and necessities.

Veronica stopped school in SS1. Before this happened, she had just begun learning tailoring. She struggles to even read and write properly because the quality of education she received was extremely poor.

She dreams of continuing her tailoring training so she can stand on her own feet, or, if possible, return to school and complete her education.

Her father and the man she was forced to marry are still threatening her.
The man has sworn not to let her go. But no law in Nigeria can force a teenager to remain married to a stranger against her will.

The Violence Against Persons (Prohibition) Act (VAPP Act) also protects her from forced marriage and other forms of abuse.

As an organisation @BONCAFO , we have completely exhausted our internal resources through the rescue, relocation, return, and placement process over the past two months.

In the last three weeks alone, I have personally spent more than ₦300,000.

There are many details I cannot publicly disclose for the safety of Veronica and everyone who has helped along the way.

At this point, silence is no longer helping her case. Veronica is ready to tell the world what happened to her and plead for her father and this man to stop forcing her into a marriage she never wanted.

No teenager should ever have to endure this kind of pain, fear, and trauma.

If we had any other means, we honestly would not be here.

That Oluchi’s tweet hit home.

There is a rampant begging culture that needs to be addressed. Yea country is hard but na so e hard everyone. I do not dm Elumelu even though I have access.

People feel it’s their birthright to receive. Always taking, taking, taking. Asking, asking, asking.

They don’t say “Spiritual, what do you need etc”. “What can I offer Morris”.

I might not take your gift but that thought shows you value me. Not ask, ask and ask.

I’ve had countless people/brands etc offer me gifts but if I know deep down it’s a burden, I don’t ever take. EVER.

It’s the thought that counts for me really.

Just before you attend your watch night service.

Watch night service can be dramatic.

Full of emotions on God's faithfulness.

How God preserved you from death, business calamity, and destruction.

While at it, please have mercy on your fellow worshipper.

Some are attending the service in pain.

They lost their spouses this year.

Some lost their children.

Some lost their parents.

Some lost businesses. Jobs. Homes etc.

Some watched their relatives, colleagues, and neighbors die and get buried alone.

God is faithful to them too.

They didn't encounter this because of a lack of offering and tithe.

Neither are they carnal Christians or sinners.

It is simply the grey area of life that God alone can explain.

Please be thankful but mindful at your watch night service.

Roll on the floor in gratitude not in comparison.

Let's preserve what it is to be HUMAN.

Please retweet.

I felt the anguish of this man. It’s so palpable. This is a sad story but I couldn’t wait to share it with you. We must all learn something from this.

The Christmas story begins with a census, a tax, and Joseph's lack of a credit card to book a hotel in time.

Let us talk about the mass of the Christ. Joseph ran a startup that converted wood to NFTs. Joseph's startup was paying many taxes to the rulers of the day who wanted to boost IGR. Joseph's partner, Mary, was pregnant but not yet on Joseph's NHIS health insurance, yet they travelled to Bethlehem via Good Is Good Motors as they could not afford to fly Air Peace. They arrived late in Bethlehem; all the hotels were taken.

Joseph still used a Techno second-generation phone, not a new 5G Compactable phone; he could not get fast internet service; Wi-Fi and Cell Service were slow because of the higher-than-expected population in the small town due to the census.

They decided to try an Airbnb for the night, and everything good was taken. Joseph found a King bed listed as "Clean and rustic accommodation, pets allowed."

The rental did not accept eNaira, but luckily, a POS operation was outside, and Joseph could get cash and pay just in time. The lodging was next to a farm with sheep, inferior quality but better than staying outside. Mary went into Labour that night.

At the new international airport terminal, the private jets kept landing that evening in Bethlehem,

"Why are billionaires flying into the small Bethlehem International Airport," the Immigration officer asked the visitors, "what's happening?

One of the Billionaires said to him, "We are here to see the King. Can you take us to Him?”

What King? Our President?

"No, The Savior, born under a star."

Thinking they were referred to the Star Motel, the TSA supervisor sent them to that part of town with an escort.

The Billionaires got to the Airbnb and found Joseph and Mary. Mary and Joseph were surprised; they looked at themselves and thought, "What is this?" The Billionaires brought gifts for the baby.

One gave Joseph a cold wallet containing gold bullion certificates. Another gave shares to a perfume factory in India; Another gave Myrrh Bonds.

"These are for your boy," they said. Thankfully, Mary and Joseph accepted.

That Boy grew up and became the most successful investor of all time. He invested his soul and reaped today a 2.38b% return. So successful is he that his birthday is still celebrated today (but the stock markets are closed)

Same Boy, same Jesus, the same Yesterday, Today & Forever

If you just got married or you have kids < 3 yrs I will share a good strategy you can use to make them passionate about the bible.
This is the age when kids are exposed to video games, cartoons, you tube sing alongs in order for parents to buy time for chores and work or Biz.
