Many Nigerians are decaying, rottening emitting putrid odor from within. My advice to anyone right now is to find out if the person you are with participated in the giveaway from bandits-, cut away from such a person immediately.
Also, if you or anyone else participates in kidnapping, banditry, and the likes, worms and termites have eaten you from within. You are destroyed, and every child you bear is cursed.
Be careful who you associate with. Be very careful. Life is spiritual.
Iām Stranded in Lagos guys
I Need Your Support š
Hi, my name is Esther Ubak. I came all the way from Akwa Ibom State to Lagos for an exhibition, full of hope and excitement, dreaming that this trip would open doors for my craft and creativity.
Iām a startup without funding anywhere, and to make this trip possible, I had to borrow money from friends, gather materials, and cover my travel expenses, all with the hope that the exhibition would be a success.
But things didnāt turn out as I expected. The exhibition didnāt go as planned, and now, Iām faced with the reality of having to refund every single amount I borrowed.
I really need the support I can get right now.
So here I am, still in Ajah, Lagos, with all the beautiful, handcrafted, upcycled pieces I brought along. I cannot go back home until they are sold, and every piece carries the love, time, and creativity I poured into it.
Below this post are the products available for pickup, each with its price tag clearly displayed.
So If youāre in Lagos and love unique art, this is your chance to grab something special.
š Location: Ajah, Lagos
š² To order: Screenshot your favorite piece(s) and DM me on WhatsApp: +2347080501180
If you canāt afford a piece right now, you can still share this post, refer a friend, or invite someone who might love them. Your support, big or small really means the world and can help turn this setback into a blessing. š
You know what DIDNāT shock me when I came to Christ as a Muslim?Ā
Jesus, the real Jesus. He didnāt shock me at all.
What shocked me was how consistent He was with the God I was reading about in the Torah.
Iām reading the Bible for the first time and thinking: āWait a second. This God, Yahweh, is always stepping into humanity.ā
Heās not distant.
He walks in the garden.
Adam and Eve hear Him.
He wrestles with Jacob.
He appears as the angel of the Lord.
He speaks to Moses face to face.
So when Jesus shows up, it doesn't feel random. It felt like the next step.
People act like the Incarnation came out of nowhere. It didnāt. Itās progressive revelation. God revealing more of Himself, culminating in Christ.
The Trinity isnāt random theology. Itās God with us. God for us. God among us.
Isaiah said it 700 years beforeāEmmanuel, God with us. Thatās prophecy.
So hereās where I got stuck: Why is it easier to believe God walked, spoke, appeared, wrestledā
but suddenly He canāt enter His own creation?
That logic doesnāt make sense.
For me, recognizing Jesus as God wasnāt a leap. It was the most natural next step.
And once I realized the Torah was revelation from God, not the Quran, I knew where I had to stand.
Seven things/facts about Jesus Christ that distinguished him among anyone else.
1. He was born of a virgin
2. Jesus performed amazing miracles in evidence of who he was.
3. Jesus preached and manifested the love of God and his kingdom.
4. He had a mission and his mission was to substitute himself for the salvation of men. Taking our place and giving us his place for our salvation.
5. He resurrected on the third day for our benefit and from that day he lived on and continue to live today.
6. He ascended to heaven. He levitated before their very eyes.
7. Now he lives to give life to all who believe in him. Thatās his invitation. The same life he has, he gives it to anyone who believes in him.
These seven things, facts separate Jesus from all others. From ever teacher, every prophet, every great person that ever lived.
I am strict with my life because I have seen what people will do with your life if you permit them.
They will destroy it and blame you for the destruction. If you don't guard your life with all diligence, they will turn it into small chops.
I'm buying a church.
Iāve made a cash offer of Ā£225,000 to purchase this church, which was about to close and be sold off to developers.
I'm fed up with driving past all these churches in the UK that used to thrive, support the community, and feed the homeless.
Now, just look at these beautiful church buildings.
So many are boarded up, closed down, with developers queueing up to profit from converting them into flats.
I simply can't accept that a building built to glorify Jesus for generations can be turned into something solely for profit.
So I've placed an offer on a church in my hometown.
My plan is to buy it and offer it completely free of charge, with zero rent, to a church willing to worship Jesus here and serve others.
What do you think of this idea?
The Chosen has been awarded a Guinness World Record as the most translated streaming series in history, available in 25 languages, seen by 270million people in 175 countries.
Praise God!!
It just hit meā¦cliques exist everywhere. At work, in church, and yeah, even among pastors. People naturally form their little circles based on shared interests or vibes. And sure, they end up influencing decisions. But what really gets me?
They exist in places that are supposed to be about unity.
Sigh. Weāre in for a long ride.
The danger of making crime a norm.
Whenever I talk about Nigeria being a crime scene, those who are part of the criminality and their hirelings will quickly start their noise-making, attacking and blackmailing me. But how do you tell people that those whose integrity, character and behaviour are supposed to be exemplary and emulated in society have become the very source of the nationās decay? How do you tell young Nigerians to be honest and upright when those they are supposed to emulate are the least to be emulated because they are criminals and dishonest?
Certificate forgery is a serious criminal offence in all countries of the world. It is one of the most corrupt practices heavily punished.
In one of my knowledge-seeking visits to Indonesia early this year, after interacting with several ministers responsible for Health, Villages, SMEs, Planning, and Education, as well as the Vice President and President Joko Widodo on development, I met with the Chairman of the General Elections Commission of Indonesia. I asked him about the educational qualifications required to participate in elections from local government to the state legislature, governorship, and up to the presidential level. He openly stated these qualifications to me.
My team and I then asked a simple question: What happens if someone contests for public office with a forged certificate or did not attend the school he claimed he attended? He looked at me, surprised and shocked, and said, āThat attracts immediate disqualification and prosecution. It is a criminal offence. He added, āIf someone can forge a certificate, how can that person be trusted to lead others?ā
But in my country Nigeria, though the laws are same as in other countries, that forgery is punished by immediate disqualification, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) makes no effort to scrutinize certificates before the elections, over looks complaints of forgery and when you challenged after the elections, court will dismiss the serious criminal issues as "pre-election matters" without giving this criminal act appropriate punishment.
INEC, even after the elections, does not bother to revisit or investigate these serious offences before the next election.
The other concerning issue from all these is how criminals and dishonest people scale through all the scrutiny layers -security, parliament and government apparatus set to handle such.
Even more disturbing, amounting to double tragedy, is that most of these dishonest people swore to an affidavit before a law court attesting to the authenticity of the documents they presented.
We are now preparing for the 2027 general elections. INEC have enough time to investigate past complaints about various forms of forgery and false claims.
Our Electoral amendments must include that anyone intending to contest for any public office, whether an incumbent or a new candidate, must submit all academic certificates to the electoral body immediately after party primaries, at least six months before the election. These certificates, alongside details of schools attended, what was studied and years of study, should be made public for verification within 90 days. This process must also apply to appointed officials, Ministers and even aides, because when dishonesty starts from the top, it spreads to every level of governance, just like itās happening now.
We must deal with certificate forgery holistically with the seriousness and level of criminality it deserves. Criminal offences should not be dismissed as a mere procedural matter. We must end the era where forgery and deceit are rewarded with power. True leadership must begin with truth.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Iāve just returned from Nigeriaās killing fields.
Pastors burned alive. Entire villages erased.
Yet the world is barely paying attention.

If your niche is intellectual content on X and you are not getting result.
Abeg tone am down a bit.
I have noticed people here get confused once they canāt comprehend, they will just ignore your tweet and move on.
For over four decades, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome has been associated with healing miracles. Why has no one publicly provided solid proof that these healings were fabricated or paid for?
