I woke up to a ₦15 million credit alert.
I reached out to a close friend I met at the university. We were so close that we were study partners.
After graduation, he moved to China, but we stayed in touch.
Around 2021, I called him and told him I wanted to start a business. I asked if he could help me buy generators in China, dismantle them, and ship the parts to Nigeria.
He agreed. I told him I had a budget of ₦10 million, sent him the money, and asked him to buy as many generators as possible.
The next day, I discovered he had blocked me everywhere. At first, I thought it was a mistake, but months passed and I still couldn't reach him. Eventually, I moved on.
This morning, I woke up to a ₦15 million credit alert. He had called several times and sent a message apologizing. He said things hadn't been going well for over a year, and he had decided to make things right with everyone he had wronged.
@GTgiftie I would reward the students who earned the scholarships and create a separate needs-based scholarship for children from less privileged families.
That way, both merit and financial need are recognized fairly.
A church decided to organize an exam for the children in the congregation. The plan was to award scholarships to the top ten students with the highest scores.
When the results were released, people noticed that nine of the ten selected children came from wealthy families.
This immediately caused a debate among church members. Many argued that the scholarships should not go to children whose parents could already afford to pay their school fees. They believed the church should focus on helping children from less privileged families instead of using only exam performance to choose the winners.
Others felt that the children earned their scholarships through hard work and should not be denied because of their parents' financial status.
At the moment, the matter is still being discussed, and the church has not yet decided on the best way to resolve it.
What would you do if you were the one handling this issue?
THE TEN TYPES OF WOMEN THAT MEN SHOULD AVOID DEPSITE HER CURVS.
1. A woman who lies unprovoked: Be wary of a lying tongue:
A relationship without honesty is built already one built on a shaky ground.
2. A woman who constantly disrespects you:
Disrespect through insults, mockery, public embarrassment, or dismissing your opinions slowly destroys love and peace.
3. A manipulative woman:
She uses guilt, emotional blackmail, or threats like,
"You don't love me," "I'll leave you," or
"Choose between me and them,"..to control your decisions instead of communicating honestly..
4. A woman who never takes responsibility for her actions:
Everything is always someone else's fault. She refuses to apologize, learn from mistakes, or own her part in conflicts.
5. A woman who keeps breaking your trust:
Whether through repeated lies, secrecy, cheating, or broken promises, trust can't survive when betrayal becomes a pattern.
6.A woman who always expects you to rescue her:
She wants your money, time, protection, affection, and leadership but refuses to build herself, contribute, or support the relationship in any meaningful way.
7. A controlling woman:
She wants to dictate who you talk to, where you go, what you do, and monitors your every move instead of respecting healthy boundaries.
8. A woman who is not teachable and refuses to grow:
She rejects correction, ignores wise counsel, and believes she never needs to improve. Growth is essential for every lasting relationship.
9. A woman who thrives on constant drama:
Every small issue becomes a major crisis.
She creates unnecessary conflict, enjoys chaos, and rarely allows peace to exist in the relationship.
10. A woman who lacks empathy:
She shows little concern for your feelings, struggles, or well-being.
Every one has flaws but a woman who constantly refuses to come of this is a serious red flag you shouldn't ignore.
I agree with you.
Addictions could be more damaging than people think or see. Once you break free, you'll feel it that your life is taking a drastic change.
And, religion is not the problem; religious extremism is.
I love it when people use correct terms in writing. You're spot-on.
Above all, love God.
"In my father's house, there shall be no loss. 'None shall be barren or miscarry in your land; I will fulfill the number of your days.' — Exodus 23:26
Hallelujah 🙌
The government said you will be fined 50k once you're seen preaching inside the bus...
I am curiously wondering why???
What has that got to do with the way this country has been falling????
Can someone tell me why please??
The Road less traveled 😕
There comes a moment when Jesus asks for more than your words.
More than church attendance.
More than worship songs.
He asks for your whole heart.
That's where the struggle begins.
Our hearts cling to people, habits, dreams, and the world.
We say we want Christ.
Yet we keep holding on to the very things pulling us away from Him.
The hardest battles are rarely against obvious sins.
They're against the ones we secretly love.
An immoral relationship.
A compromising friendship.
A hidden addiction.
A life built on approval.
When God cuts those ties, it hurts.
It can feel like part of your soul is being torn away.
You miss the person.
The attention.
The old life.
The loneliness feels heavy.
The sacrifice feels unfair.
But intimacy with Christ has always required separation.
Every believer who walked closely with Him passed through that painful doorway.
The world behind.
Christ ahead.
No divided loyalties.
No backup plans.
You cannot cling to the world and cling to Christ with the same strength.
One grip must loosen.
The pain of letting go is real.
But so is the joy that follows.
So let all earth ties be rent.
The road may wound your flesh and break your heart.
But it will draw you closer to the One who gave everything for you.
There is no greater gain than that.
Yesterday morning, I entered a commercial bus on my way to the market.
Inside the bus, a man who was sitting in the middle suddenly stood up and said, "Let's pray."
The conductor immediately looked at him and shouted, "Oga, government has banned preaching inside buses. Sit down, abeg."
The man ignored him and continued praying.
The conductor stretched out his hand and pushed him.
They started dragging each other and soon began fighting inside the bus.
The driver stopped the bus and asked both of them to come down.
They got down and continued fighting.
The man threw the conductor to the ground twice until some nearby road safety officers came and separated them.
After everything settled, the man got back into the bus and started preaching again. 😳
@Prince_dc21_ This is heartbreaking. She should seek legal advice as soon as possible. Grieving shouldn't mean losing her home, peace, or the future she and her husband worked so hard to build.
"My late husband and I built our lives on love & hustle. We married in 2014 & welcomed 4 beautiful children over the years: our first son, our twin daughters, & our youngest girl,
We didn't come from wealthy backgrounds. We were struggling young adults who got married with a shared vision. We worked incredibly hard: I sold tomatoes at the market, & he worked as a private teacher. Determined to make a better life for our family, I took a friend's advice & presented a plan to my husband. I adviced him & brought an idea that we should raise money so he could travel to South Korea for a job as an English Teacher
I bought into this dream cuz I knew he was a smart, dedicated, & hardworking man. Our dreams eventually came true. He traveled when I was a month pregnant with our last daughter, & thankfully, he secured the job quickly.
My husband was an only child, raised by a single mom who is now elderly & needs care. Because of this, he sent funds directly to me to manage our investments. I diligently completed every project he entrusted to me. I managed the construction of the house we live in, developed 2 rental properties, & established a boutique business to support our children. Our plan was simple: once our youngest turned 4, he would return home, & we would continue our lives as a complete, happy family.
8 months ago, my husband came home. Despite my mother-in-law & my pleas, he insisted on visiting his paternal uncles in the village—the same uncles who allegedly seized his father’s land & property after he passed away when my husband was only 6 years old... After visiting them, my husband returned home that same day & suddenly became ill. Tragically, a few days later, that illness took his life.
Fast forwarded, It's now been 6 months since his burial, & his uncles are still here. Instead of making plans to leave, they are actively inviting other relatives, including their adult children & even grandchildren, to come & join them. No one is discussing that with me
Instead, everyday, I keep coming home to more & more people. We are now 16 people in this house, & frankly, I'm tired. I don't know if this is a cultural obligation or just a painful situation I don't understand. I am draining my savings on food, water, & electricity. They spend their days simply sitting, eating, & just chatting for the past almost going 7 months now...
Please, I need advice. I am struggling to find a way to handle this without causing a major family rift. I need to breathe, I need space, & I need to be able to grieve my husband. I am completely overcrowded, & i don't know what to do"
“My daddy come and see snake”, my children shouted
My husband and I rushed outside in fear, only to see a millipede. These children can give someone heart attack, my chest oo 😩😩
@theminatt Acne is more than just a skin condition. It can affect confidence and mental well-being, so it's important to treat those struggling with it with empathy, not judgment.
