The Great Green Wall is one of the most ambitious environmental initiatives in Africa’s history.
Launched in 2007 by the African Union, the project aims to create an 8,000-kilometer-long belt of trees and restored land across the Sahel region, stretching from Senegal in the west to Djibouti in the east. More than 20 countries are participating, with 22 nations actively implementing the program, including Senegal, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Chad, Sudan, Ethiopia, and Djibouti.
Beyond simply planting trees, the Great Green Wall promotes a wide range of sustainable land management practices designed to restore degraded soil, enhance food security, generate employment, and strengthen community resilience to climate change.
According to the official program and recent reports, approximately 15% of the wall has been completed so far. Even at this early stage, the project has successfully restored large areas of degraded land, improved agricultural productivity and water availability for local communities, and attracted more than $14 billion in funding and pledges.
The initiative continues to demonstrate that coordinated, large-scale environmental restoration can deliver tangible benefits for both people and the planet.
@E__Umoh @Tspiceskitchen Please do not microwave your stainless steel. It will catch fire. Yes, the glass ones are microwavable. I personally am very anti-plastic due to the PFAS/chemicals leaching into food. Ditched mine about 15 years ago and never looked back.
I am leaving Christianity…🙁🙁🙁🙁
Yes, you heard me right. I’ve been wrestling with this for a long time, and today I’m finally letting it out.
I am leaving Christianity because of the following “serious” issues:
I can’t even live my old life in peace anymore. Christianity has ruined it completely.
Anytime I try to tell a simple, innocent lie, the Holy Spirit starts convicting me. Next thing you know, I’m confessing like someone under investigation.
Why is the Holy Spirit always trying to guide me to the right path when all I want is to misbehave in peace?
Why did God become a man to take the punishment I deserve? Who told Him to love me that much?
Why did God humble Himself lower than an angel just because of me? What’s my business? Am I not allowed to stay useless in peace?
Why is God so consistent with His message that He left no loophole for me to find fault? At least make small mistake so I can argue!
Why did Jesus live a sinless life and then tell us to be like Him when I can’t even go 24 hours without sinning? How is that fair?
Why does God want me to love my enemies when I’m still struggling to love myself?
Why did Jesus say “turn the other cheek” when what I really want is to return slap with interest?
Why is God offering me eternal life for free just by believing in Christ? Why can’t I really hard for it? Why so generous?
Why does Christianity want me to stop gossiping and living a hypocritical life when that was literally my talent?
Christianity has made me understand love too much. Now I’m here loving everybody like a malfunctioning robot, help!
It even stripped me of my pride. I used to be proudly proud for no reason. Now I’m humble like someone applying for visa.
Honestly, Christianity must be false, because it has taken away all the nonsense I enjoyed and replaced it with peace, joy, and salvation that I didn’t even work for.
So yes… after deep reflection,
I am officially leaving Christianity… to become a TRUE Christian.
Stop and think with me for a moment: what exactly did Lucifer tell those angels that made them bold enough to fight God on his behalf? What lie could possibly be so convincing that holy angels, who had only ever known the perfection and goodness of God, would suddenly see Him as unworthy of their loyalty? No proof. No evidence. Just whispers. And those whispers became their “truth.” Those whispers became their “discernment.” And on the strength of a lie, they rebelled against the One who had never failed them.
That is the principle of Lucifer, and it is still the strategy being played out today. Certain ministers rise, posturing themselves as those with “special access” or “privileged revelation.” They say, “Beware of Minister XYZ. He’s not truly a man of God. God showed me something. I know what you don’t know.” They never produce evidence. They never point you back to Christ. They simply whisper, sow seeds of suspicion, and let the poison spread. And suddenly, an entire camp turns against a servant of God—not because of truth, but because of a story, because of a narrative, because of Lucifer’s principle recycled.
Tell me—how does a whole group of believers, who once honoured a man, suddenly see him as evil overnight? How does a brother you once loved become your enemy? It’s simple: you inherited another man’s bitterness, another man’s grudge, another man’s envy, another man’s jealousy, another man’s insecurity. That is not discernment; that is deception. That is not revelation; that is rebellion.
Don’t you see? If angels in heaven—angels who dwelt in God’s light—could be seduced into fighting Him because they believed Lucifer’s whispers, how much more you and I if we do not guard our ears? If it could happen in heaven, it can happen in church. It can happen in fellowship. It can happen in your own circle. That is why you must be careful what you hear and who you hear it from.
I say it boldly: God does not anoint suspicion. God does not traffic in gossip. God does not build His kingdom on envy or slander. The Holy Spirit does not sound like whispers that divide. The Holy Spirit does not look like bitterness passed off as prophecy. If it doesn’t sound like Christ, it’s not Christ. If it doesn’t look like Christ, it’s Lucifer—still whispering, still lying, still dividing, still dragging destinies out of place.
So guard your ears. Guard your heart. Guard your honour. Don’t inherit another man’s poison. Don’t inherit another man’s wound. Don’t inherit another man’s rebellion. Shut down the whispers before they shut you out of destiny.
Because the same devil who convinced angels to fight God is still convincing men to fight one another. And the tragedy is this: every time you fight a servant of God because of a whisper, you’re not fighting for God—you’re fighting for Lucifer.
I am absolutely convinced that Jesus Christ lived, died and rose again. He’s the King of kings and Lord of lords. He’s the Savior of the world and He’s coming back again
As Christians, be mindful of focusing on temporary and surface level benefits without seriously considering the spiritual and eternal costs of everything you do. Because on the grand scale, nothing is truly just surface level.
