We Are All Too Human, Slaves to Sin. We don't really understand ourselves for we want to do what is right, but we don't do it, Instead We do What we Hate.
But If we know that What we are doing is wrong this shows that we agree that the Law and Righteousness of God is Good.
I’m asking you to do one kind thing today.
Please help my sister continue her fight against Hodgkin’s lymphoma.
A donation, a repost, or a quote would go a long way for Lauretta. 🤲🏾🤲🏾🤲🏾

The wait is over.
We have 2 golds: Chimdiebube Onwubiko and Don Anele Munachimso.
We are the best in the world!
Egejurum Onyedikachi’s name was omitted. He should have a gold.
Regardless of where you stand on Balogun-Gate, the whole reaction to both sides highlights some very key differences in the American vs European mindset.
In the American mind, "getting it right" is the most important thing. Thats how justice is served, is by getting to the correct result based on the play on the field.
The European mind is different though. They have an instinct towards bureaucracy and are obsessed with process. The Process must be respected. Respecting process is more important than the specifics of what happened on the field.
And thats why you get this wild take thats fairly common where a Euro will say something like "He didnt deserve the red card, but once it was given it cannot be overturned!".
To the American mind, justice is served by getting the call right, regardless of process. To the European mind, justice is served by respecting process, regardless of the result.
Its a fascinating look into the psyche of both, and if I'm permitted a little armchair psychoanalysis of both groups, id say the reason lies in their history. The Europeans spent centuries as the peasant class of Europe, essentially being forced to accept whatever shit the aristocracy piled up on them. There was no "appeals" process, they took what they had too, because there was no other option. In this environment, a certain "acceptance of one's fate" or immunity to overt injustice likely seeped into the national psyches. No one had success by "fighting the power", the power imbalance was simply too great. What eventually saved them though, was process. Rules-based orders were the only thing that gave them a semblance of power vs the aristorcracies of their upper classes. And so they came to revere Process as the Ultimate Good and working OUTSIDE process as the Ultimate Evil.
The Americans, on the other hand, never developed their national psyche in the world of Kings and Aristocrats. Class was far less rigid in the new world, and risk-taking WAS highly rewarded there. "Fighting the power" to "do what was right" WAS greatly rewarded during the American Revolution when a few great men "fought the power" and were gifted with what would become the most powerful, prosperous country on Earth. And so a certain disdain against "process" took hold, a general feeling that "process" was only as good as long as it provided fair and just outcomes. As opposed to the European model, where "process " was the only thing that had given them anything close TO "fair and just outcomes".
So in that context, the massive gap between both sides makes sense
Or maybe this is all nonsense and its just anti-American, pro-Euro tribalism, who knows 🤷🏼♂️
This video is a call for help.
My mum is battling with stroke, and it is slowly taking her life. She needs urgent medical funds to stay alive, and I cannot do this alone anymore. Please, if you have it in your heart to help or retweet this to someone who can, I beg of you 🤲🏻🙏
Until Muslims worldwide start making videos condemning Islamic terrorists and apologize for the atrocities committed in Allah’s name, I won’t take them seriously.
Never let Muslims gaslight you.
The IGP crack team has arrested Ifechukwu Dennis who originated the fake voice that he passed on to his gullible targets as President Tinubu’s voice. Dennis was arrested in Benin. The police will issue an official statement.
There was a fake audio attributed to President Tinubu about 1week ago, which was wrongly attributed to VDM.
That same day the government sprang into action threatening to arrest VDM and to fish out those behind the fake audio. All this was simply because of politics- as the voice note makes claims of certain words by the president that are potentially politically damaging to his demonic 2nd term ambitions.
Today LESS THAN 1WEEK,
The government has arrested the person they claim is behind the fake audio.
By the way,
This is the same government that has failed repeatedly to fish out terrorists who kidnap, slaughter and murder Nigerians on a daily basis.
As I type this,
Over 40 children, including 2yr olds and 3yr olds are tied up in kidnapper caves for over 2weeks and this govt has FAILED to fish out the terrorist animals behind it. Yet see the speed they used to find the man behind the fake audio said to be Tinubu voice.
It is very clear:
It is not that the nigerian security agencies are weak if they choose to do their job, it is that the nigerian government is useless, satanic, pathetic and simply does not prioritise the lives of ordinary Nigerians.
Your life doesn’t matter to Tinubu.
Always remember this. Never forget.
One thing I'll give Oyedepo is consistency.
Whether you agree with him or not, his position has remained largely the same. He has never seemed afraid to criticize government policies he believes are wrong.
Adeboye, on the other hand, was quite vocal during Jonathan's administration when the challenges Nigeria faced were nowhere near what many Nigerians are experiencing today.
Since Buhari's government and now under Tinubu, that same public criticism seems to have disappeared.
Maybe there are reasons for that. Maybe there aren't.
But people are not wrong for noticing the difference and asking questions.
If pastors can speak when one government is in power, they should be able to speak when another government is in power too.
Truth should not depend on who occupies Aso Rock.
Whenever I spend 1 minute looking into the facts, the truth always turns out to be totally different than what anti-Israel obsessives imply.
The headline is painting a narrative that Israel has perhaps intentionally sabotaged Trump's negotiations by attacking Iran.
Israel—boo! They're controlling us!
But I found it odd that the headline didn't say Israel attacked Iran, but merely began a "fresh bombing campaign." Smells like potential narrative manipulation by omission.
Turns out that my intuition was correct. Israel did not bomb Iran, they bombed Hezbollah in Lebanon. And they did it because Hezbollah launched dozens of rockets and drones at Israel on May 30-31. So it makes total sense why Israel began a "fresh bombing campaign."
In other words, the Daily Mail manipulated a story about Israel responding to attacks by Iran's terror proxy into a headline designed to make people believe Israel purposefully decided to sabotage Trump’s diplomacy with Iran by attacking them unprovoked.
It's a perfect example of how a headline can be factually correct in a very narrow sense by omitting context to serve as reality-inverting propaganda.
"Oh," you fell for a psyop that takes 1 minute to debunk?
Congratulations.
