[David *Objection* Ngong @ProfDNgong]

The new expression in Nigeria is destiny helper, but this is from Professor Nimi Wariboko. That is why God made you - to be a destiny helper.

I was honored to review Nimi Wariboko's book "Transcripts of the Sacred in Nigeria" for the Scottish Journal of Theology. Some of these essays have become foundational for my own research. https://t.co/k0jkgxMfdr

[Nimi Wariboko @nimiwari]

@NoOutsideTweet Thanks, Michael.

@nimiwari's deeply felt lyrics capture the dire human cost of the Niger Delta's ecological disaster. Nigerians should pause and pay attention: https://t.co/w8J7PFpl8s

"I tend to map the ocean floors, those deep and dark places in the Pentecostal Christian faith (movement) where the sunlight of logical and systematic thinking has not penetrated, yet they are filled with life, creativity, splits, and volcanic eruptions."
-Nimi Wariboko

[Simeon Zahl @simeonzahl]

Inspired by Nimi Wariboko's incredible line: 'Grace is the negation of work. But play is its style of negation' (from The Pentecostal Principle)

[Dr. Amy Martin @AmyMartinOHNY]

Nimi Wariboko (Boston U.) takes literature seriously as a context for philosophical reflection, providing close readings of fascinating literary and artistic works - such as A. Igoni Barrett's Blackass and the comedy skits of MC Edo Pikin

@lord_bellgam Also check what particular period the author you read was addressing. Today, unlike the 18 & 19th centuries, the wari corporation is back to blood-lineage system. Also check which groups in Ijo your author was addressing. Not all groups went through the same transformation.

[Nimi Wariboko @nimiwari]

Pay special attention to chapter 6, “Money and Empire,” pp. 159-196, and chapter 7, “A Trinitarian Model of the Global Monetary System,” pp. 197-228. They provide the requisite ethical framework to analyze what the US and its allies have done.

[Nimi Wariboko @nimiwari]

@lord_bellgam Wari, canoe-house was not a blood descent group. It developed as a transformation of the lineage system. It had workers, servants, blood relatives in it. In my essay I traced the transformation of the lineage system into the wari system. The old name was kept but it had evolved.

USA and EU have rightly imposed crippling sanctions on Russia’s trade and payment systems. For a rigorous ethical and economic analysis of the global currency reserve system read my God and Money: A Theology of Money in a Globalizing World.
