If Nigerian presidency has a tribal outlook and not competency, we have no business being one.
Trivial sentiments must not rule us. Our choices must be based on higher values

DEAR @officialEFCC
Last night, your officers barged into my accommodation and harassed me. It was an experience I never expected, and it left me asking serious questions about how citizens are treated.
I believe every Nigerian deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. If there are questions to ask or investigations to carry out, they should be done professionally and within the law, not through intimidation.
BUT ONE QUESTION KEEPS COMING TO MY MIND:
● What business does the EFCC have with religion?
The EFCC was created to fight economic and financial crimes, not to interfere with people's religious beliefs or personal opinions. Since when did expressing or discussing religious views become part of the EFCC's job?
Nigeria is a country where freedom of thought, conscience, and religion should be protected. No one should feel threatened because of their beliefs or the opinions they express. And if you think this is a false allegation, we can go to court.
We must continue to speak up for justice, accountability, and the rights of every citizen. Today it may be me; tomorrow it could be someone else.
@immortalz24@AfricaFactsZone Have you heard of Aboubacar Titi Camara? When he was playing for Guinea pre-2000, South Africa didn't have a national team yet.
When I was Muslim, we had an awesome story where Abraham was smashing all the pagan idols.
Surah 21. Young Abraham destroys his father’s idols, leaves the biggest one standing, and when they ask who did it, he says “ask the big one.” Then they throw him into a fire and Allah makes it cool.
I was told that story a hundred times. It felt like proof Islam had the real Abraham.
Yesterday I found the story’s birth certificate.
Genesis Rabbah 38. A Jewish midrash — rabbinic storytelling — compiled around the 5th century AD, before Muhammad was born. Same plot. Abraham smashes the idols. Blames the biggest one. Gets thrown into a fire by Nimrod.
And here’s the detail that wrecked me: the fire comes from a rabbi’s wordplay. Genesis 15:7 says God brought Abraham out of “Ur of the Chaldees.” “Ur” can sound like the Hebrew word for fire — so a rabbi spun a story: God brought Abraham out of THE FIRE.
It was a PUN. A sermon illustration to help you understand. Jewish folklore built on a Hebrew word.
And it ended up in the Quran as history.
Genesis — the actual account — has no idols smashed, no furnace, no Nimrod showdown. It has something better:
Genesis 15: God makes a covenant with Abraham, and God ALONE passes between the sacrifice pieces. Meaning: “If this covenant breaks, I pay the price.”
Two thousand years later, on a hill outside Jerusalem, He did. He paid it in FULL.
The midrash gave me a story about a man surviving fire.
The Quran took a shell of that and added it as scripture.
The Bible comes through with a God who walked right into the fire for both YOU&ME.
Praise the Lord, I AM FREE
When I was Muslim, I never noticed what the Quran doesn’t have.
Dates. Places. Names you can check.
Read the Quran’s stories: no chronology, almost no geography, kings called only “Pharaoh,” events floating in no particular year.
Where did the story happen? When? Under whom? The text doesn’t say. You can’t check it… which conveniently means you can’t crosscheck it.
Now read the opening of Luke 3:
“In the FIFTEENTH YEAR of the reign of TIBERIUS CAESAR — PONTIUS PILATE being governor of JUDEA, HEROD being tetrarch of GALILEE, his brother PHILIP tetrarch of ITUREA and TRACHONITIS, and LYSANIAS tetrarch of ABILENE, during the high priesthood of ANNAS and CAIAPHAS…”
SEVEN historical anchors in one sentence.
An emperor, a governor, three rulers with their exact territories, two high priests.
And people HAVE checked — for centuries, often trying to break it. Skeptics mocked Luke’s “Lysanias of Abilene” as an error…
UNTIL an inscription naming Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene turned up.
Pilate was called legend by some… until the Pilate Stone was dug up at Caesarea in 1961 with his name and title carved in it.
Luke 1:3-4 tells you why: “Having followed all things closely… that you may have CERTAINTY.”
Certainty. That’s the offer.
One book floats above history where nothing can touch it.
The other planted its flag in checkable ground and said: dig.
They dug. It’s still standing.
Praise the Lord and His mighty God-Breathed scripture.
JUST IN:
All Public schools in Abia are going ‘Smart’ and going ‘Tech’ 🔥🔥
Omo wetin I sabi for Computer or Tablet when I dey Eight Years Old? 🥲
New Nigeria is happening in Abia, the rest of us are stuck with Tinubu and the Education hating APC. 📌
@afropolitan People are not necessarily trained to perform. People are rather adjusting to opportunities that can give them the best fighting chance.
Here’s Atedo Peterside highlighting the same thing back in 2017.
@NigeriaStories Look at the western countries, fighting against immigration because they think it's the cause of minor crimes, here we are fully accepting terrorists with our full chest.
EVERYONE SHOULD HEAR ME, BOTH MALE AND FEMALE.
Everyone, please listen to me.
You see, fornication and every form of sexual immorality are sins that the devil usually uses in the spirit. When you keep engaging in them, they will drain your anointing and drain your spiritual strength.
It will get to a point where you will not be able to pray again. You will feel completely, one hundred percent, spiritually drained and dry.
You will still have the zeal and the hunger to worship God, to serve God, and to pray, but you will not be able to pray. No matter how much you struggle, you just cannot pray. Many people are suffering from this today.
Do you know why?
Sexual immorality is connected to the marine kingdom. So the more you engage in it, they keep taking away your anointing, your zeal, your strength in prayer, and your joy.
That is why you struggle to pray after involving yourself in these sexual acts. That is why you struggle to read your Bible. That is why you struggle to live a righteous life.
Yes, if you have fallen into this category, you still need to pray. You still need to cry to God for help.
Most of the time, it is no longer just about you. When you try to overcome it by your own power, you keep failing. At this point, it is only God who can help you.
Please, avoid it. Avoid it by all means. Avoid it by every possible means.
Yes, I know why I am telling you this.
When you are hit by this, you will be surprised that everything you labored for spiritually over the years will suddenly begin to disappear. The prayer life you built for years can vanish almost immediately.
That is why it is very, very dangerous.
I know what I am talking about.
If you have fallen into this category, try all your possible best to seek God's deliverance. He is able to set you free.
