When I was awarded my PhD, in Holland, the Rector Magnificus (Vice Chancellor) said “You’ll never need to prove to anybody again that you are smart.”
I said “That tells me that you are not on Twitter. He said “I’m not.” I said “Toh!” 😂😂😂

It's quite wild to me that anyone running a food delivery business is asking delivery drivers to be using Slack.

Wild indeed. Wish I was a fly on the wall during the strategy meeting that led to the decision; I'm soooo eager to listen to the justification.

We preached sin so long, that we don’t know how to preach Righteousness and tell the people what they are in Christ.

When someone does tell them, they feel it is false teaching. They feel that anything is false that does not honor sin, and lift it into the place of Christ.

In all sincerity, I can boldly say that anyone who agrees with this tweet lacks common sense and thinking skills.

The funny thing about those who teach "new" and "strange" things is this, when they hit some real trouble in their lives they fall back on the basic principles they were taught and grounded in to get out of it.

If I ever lend my book to you and I find you do this, I’m calling the Amotekun, EFCC, and Nigerian Army on you.

Don’t play with me.

[Andy Obuoforibo @andyRoidO]

Unrelated, but "Mr Man" is a top tier Nigerian insult, because it's literally not an insult at all, is dressed with the trappings of respect ("Mr"), but is actually the most dismissive designation ever.

Your sexual addiction cannot be tamed in marriage. Deal with it before you get married. Marriage is not the antidote for an uncontrollable desire for sexual sin.

I'm yet to find one example where society's stance on a topic produces a better outcome than God's opinion. Not one.

That whole Twitter blue creator payments thing has reduced the quality of engagements on Twitter by a LOT.

Folks are now just competing on who can tweet the most outrageous things for engagement so they can get paid.

A Duty of Truth

I discovered that a lot of folks in unpleasant marriages who are afraid of going through the process of separation and divorce have taken to travelling abroad as a third option
Overnight, I was taking stock of couples I know whose marriage is no longer really a marriage as a result of either the husband or the wife taking this option and i was a bit alarmed
The number was staggering and more are joining the ranks daily
The problem then is staying true to this decision once the disgruntled partner travels
Typically, the partner that travelled should then call the one he or she left behind and say "Sir or ma, I was unhappy and unsettled in the marriage and I have tried as much as possible to adjust but i have come to hard realisation that i couldn't. This journey is a sort of separation that i engineered to spare myself the embarrassment of explaining to you and family and church members that i can no longer cope with the marriage or endure the marriage.
I am not filing for you or sending for you or hoping you will come around with the children, i know you will take this badly at first but please, realise that i am doing this for the good of both of us and in order to give the best I can to the children.
Children are the worst victim of a bitter marriage and i don't want us to raise children in the toxic atmosphere that has engulfed our marriage. So I have stepped aside for you.
I hope you will let me talk to the children as often as I desire to and that you will understand that this is the best solution i see for us not to turn to permanent enemies simply because we are married. I am sorry if I have hurt you in any way, I have forgiven you and I am trying to heal everyday.
Yours,
So and So"
This would be the honourable and realistic thing to do
But no, most people wont do that
After they had travelled, they begin this delusion or grand scheme of deceit which i find to be very damning
They tell their spouse they are working on bringing them over to the country they have travelled to, but in reality, they just want the children
They don't want that spouse anymore or they assume that if they bring that spouse abroad, they will be able to clip the wings of that spouse and make him (This mostly happens to the husbands) more compliant and malleable.
It then becomes a game of trying to outwit each other just to get the children or bring the husband into an environment where he can be controlled or threatened into submission
This ends in a calamity for everybody
I have read and had to seal many cases in which the partner abroad simply laid plans to deal with the one in Nigeria due to their history and that one ended up in a trap in the name of travelling abroad
The children saw these things and the parent that did it wouldn't understand the damage such behaviour does to children as they grow up
It is better to sit down as adults and sort the unpleasant situation out as amicably as possible rather than go to that extent in the name of engineering a divorce or separation outside the reach of friends and family members
Just sit down and tell each other the truth
Fight and cry over it
Try your best as a couple to make amends and tell each other the truth if the amendment is not working out for you
Be truthful to the children without laying blame on each other and being all unpleasant about it
Part ways with a solid arrangement between the both of you of giving the children the best and then travel out if that is what you want to do
Learn to do things without plotting and scheming like the devil
A man married a woman in Lagos, Nigeria
He was a banker and she was a marketer for one of the Korean companies
The lady began to do exceptionally well at her job that other Korean companies began to offer her twice her income just to market their products
Soon, she became the head of the West African Region in her company
All the while the husband had found the banking job tedious and unproductive, so he resigned and started a small business using some of his savings for FOREX trading
Things were good between them until his family members came visiting and discovered the wife was the one making the megabucks
Suddenly, prophesies started coming from his family's end that the wife was using his glory
(This use of glory line is a religious lie that many pastors, prophets and so called spiritual leaders in Nigeria tell their members as a substitute for the truth. Since glory is an abstract concept, it really cannot be stolen but deliverance ministers come up with stories that prove if someone took your shirt or undies or something from your body, the person can then take your destiny and change it with their own.
There is nothing true about this when both parties are born again Christians. The glory of the believer was given to his or her by Jesus in John 17: 22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— 23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.)
How can anybody steal the glory of Jesus?
Ignorance and desperation however make us believe all sorts of lies
When this man was told these lies by pastors and prophets, he didn't call his wife to tell her the truth
The truth being that he was unhappy with her success and envious of her role as the bread winner of the family
The truth about his ego or pride being bruised and his desire to be separated from his wife or even get a divorce so that he will not be a clog in her wheel of progress
Spouses don't often do this
They never do the practical thing because it will make them look bad
So they find a solution to direct problem by becoming cunning and disingenuous
The husband told the wife he will like the family to travel abroad for vacation
Wife gave him the money to sort out passport and visa issues
He did but only for him and the children
He went as far as to publish an obituary of the wife to present at the embassy in order to back up the claim that the wife had died
He got the visa for himself and the children and one day when the wife was at work he took the children and moved everything in the house
The wife came back from the office to meet an empty house and the children were gone too
She lost her mind
He didn't even leave a note, so she had no clue what happened to the family
She tried reaching members of his family but they had all blocked her on social media and they refused to pick her calls
She was sick for weeks until one of the man's cousins sent her a picture of her husband and children arriving in Canada
At this point you will expect her to report at the police station, petition the embassy and go all out for war until this man and the children are deported back to Nigeria
She also fell for the religious thing
"They are in a better place, maybe I can talk to him and reason with him so that he can make room for me over there to go and be with him and my children"
Wow!
He eventually spoke to her after three years
He told her she must go for deliverance so that he will be sure she is free of witchcraft before he will allow her talk to her children on the phone
Meanwhile, he had moved on with another woman he met in Canada
When i was told the story, we turned it around in the place of prayer and by taking practical steps through three NGOs
Her children were returned to her and the husband was deported
Many Christians still saw the move as her being wicked and unforgiving till today
The sister that brought the case to my attention a few years later did the same thing to escape from her unpleasant marriage
She didn't accuse her deadbeat husband of anything, she told him an opportunity opened for her to study in Germany and she left
Then she arranged for her son to join her
It's been five years, the husband is in Nigeria fruitlessly applying for Visa without any means to bankroll his journey while the wife kept telling him she had sent the necessary documents to the embassy and that he should be patient etc
Why not just tell him the truth and let him go?
She says she was trying to teach him a lesson on how to be responsible
Has he not been paying rent since i left, has he not been feeding himself? but he refused to do these things when we were living under the same roof, he was chasing skirts while i was labouring hard to put food on the table, he caused all these and I am just teaching him how to be a responsible adult"
It is not right
Don't drag each other off the course of destiny based on emotion or vendetta
He wont change abroad and neither will she
If you must travel abroad as a couple be sure it is what the two of you want and that God is in it
If either of you want to travel as an escape, just be truthful about it
I am writing this also directly to a sister whose husband has been shooting blanks on the marital bed
This sister wants to have a baby
She and her husband had tried IVF several times to no avail
It has been established that her husband is the one with the issues with his sperm
She didn't want to file for divorce because it will make her look somehow
So now she has decided to escape from the marriage by travelling abroad to study and allowing the marriage to die a natural death.
Just tell him the truth
You owe each other a duty of truth as a couple.

PS: By 2pm on the 17th of May, we will be in RCCG Jesus Embassy in VGC Lagos for The River
A LIVE recording session with Ihuoma Isong

Come and experience the fullness of the Spirit like never before
Come and experience the power of the Holy Spirit
Come and partake of the River which can never dry
I am especially inviting those with deep marital issues, this is a river of clarity and wisdom
Let us all drink of it together and receive His counsel
