There are over 2,000 languages spoken across Africa. Linguistics predicts that by 2100 more than half will be extinct. Not because Africans forgot them. Because Africans were punished for using them.
This was not accidental. Lord Macaulay said it in 1835 in his infamous minute on Indian education. But thesame blue print was applied across Africa: create a class of people "Indian in colour and blood, but English in Taste, opinions, Morals and intellect". Replace the mind. Control the continent forever.
I know consistency matters but being connected to the right circle of people is very important.
In fact, in most cases being rightly connected always beats consistency. I donโt even know if thatโs a good thing ๐
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome purportedly 'healed' this man sometimes ago.
The same one reportedly healed by him is now being subjected to fundraising. Was it a managed theatrics?
God is on the throne. He is watching.
It is well. God watches.
In 2006, the world was in Germany.
The World Cup was on, and I was on radio โ top radio.
But my heart was elsewhere. I wanted to leave.
I walked into that embassy with a dream folded in an envelope, a visa, a one-way ticket, a plan to go and never come back. To seek greener pastures.
They said NO.
That NO broke me.
I had a classmate who had promised me a corner to sleep if I made it. After the refusal, I called her. And called. And called. She never answered again.
That silence was louder than the refusal.
I cried then. I didn't understand then.
But now I know, sometimes, God says NO because He has built you to be the greener pasture others will travel to find.
He was not rejecting me. He was redirecting me.
Just believe. Just trust Him fully.
Fiona Simpson was caught outside with her infant daughter when large hail began pounding down. She threw herself over the child, taking the full force of the ice on her back, shoulders, and arms.
The photos show the result: deep, widespread bruising across her body. The baby was unharmed.
Nothing is more important to a mother than her child.
She didnโt hesitate. She covered her baby with everything she had.
A raw, powerful picture of sacrificial love.
In a world of Lindsays be a Fiona!
