First they are repeating their toxic Muslim-Muslim ticket unprovoked, then this kind meeting just to introduce religious sentiment into 2027 elections unprovoked. Next they will accused Peter Obi and NDC with bigotry and aligning with the provoked Christian faith.
Let me be categorically clear: we in the Muslims will not tolerate anyone endorsing hardship, killings, kidnapping, and wanton stealing in the name of a Muslim-Muslim ticket. From now on they are NOT Islamic schorlars, they are just APC political support group and will be treated as such. Mtswww
"Armed gangs"? Afraid to call them by what they really are? I can help you: "jihadists terrorist."
See how simple it is if you're not a terrorist sympathizer?
During Holy Week, Islamists:
>massacred hundreds of Christians in Nigeria
>raided Christian villages in Syria, brutally beating people and burning houses & businesses to the ground
>drove a truck into a crowd of Christian worshippers in Pakistan
>set fire to multiple churches
If 16,000 kg of Gold left Nigeria to Dubai while the FG acknowledged exporting only 64kg, then how did Dubai receive more 15,900kg of Gold from Nigeria?
Nigerians seem not disturbed enough about what is going on in Nigeria
Happy resurrection of Jesus Christ day! Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that he is Lord to the glory of God the father.
Key word : every
Joseph of Arimathea pulled a corpse off a cross with his bare hands.
Blood under his fingernails. The weight of a dead man sagging into his arms.
He wrapped God in linen, pressed the fabric into wounds that were still wet.
Nicodemus brought seventy-five pounds of burial spice. A king's funeral for a man the world just murdered.
They carried Him into a hole in the rock and rolled the stone shut.
And everything you've ever done went in with Him.
Every night you can't sleep because of what you did. Every morning, you can't look in the mirror. The thing you did to her. The thing you did to them. The
lie you've been carrying so long it feels like bone.
The version of you that drinks alone and pretends tomorrow will be different.
That man was buried with Christ.
Stone sealed. Done.
Not managed. Not in therapy. Not on a payment plan with God where you slowly earn your way back. Buried. In a tomb. Under rock. Gone.
Three days of silence. Three days of a cold body in the dark.
Then the stone moved.
And when He walked out, the grave clothes were folded on the slab. He didn't stumble out tangled in death. He left it sitting there like a man who's done
with the clothes he used to wear.
Lazarus needed someone to unwrap him. Death still clung to him even after he was breathing.
Jesus folded His own burial linen and walked out clean.
That's the difference between religion and resurrection. Religion unwraps you slowly. Asks you to manage your sin. Attend the class. Read the book. Try harder next week.
Resurrection says the man who walked into that tomb is dead. The man who walked out doesn't know him.
You're not fixing the old you. The old you is in a sealed tomb in Jerusalem, and he's not coming back.
The man reading this, the one who thinks he's too far gone, you're not too far. You're already buried. The funeral happened two thousand years
ago.
Now get up. The stone's already moved. The linen's already folded.
Walk out.
Yesterday afternoon, an NGO raised an alarm over the premeditated attacks that was underway...
The DSS did nothing.
Caleb Muftwang did nothing.
The Nigerian Police did nothing.
These Christians who were in their house heard the Intel and decided to protect their homes from Islamic terrorists that were threatening to invade & kill them.
Their crime was trying to protect their family with machetes.
I expected and knew you guys would twist the story.
Thanks for never disappointing me.
There's something many of you are refusing to address concerning this Jos issue but I'll raise it.
The Muslims in Jos fasted and did their Eid peacefully, no attack was made on their community.
Now that the Christians in Jos are celebrating Easter, there are attacks.
Do you have any idea what will happen in Jos & other Northern states if the Muslims get attacked in their own community during fasting and Eid?
Yet you think the Christians are overreacting?
They should forget about the government and defend themselves vigorously from whoever the attacks are coming from and yes, it is valid to think the attacks are coming from the Muslims because it's a pattern, it's not new.
The Muslims will think the same if they were attacked during their celebrations.
RISE AND DEFEND YOURSELVES.
Good Friday reminds us of Jesus Christ’s sacrifice. May this day further deepen the values of harmony, compassion and forgiveness. May brotherhood and hope guide us all.
Christianity at least brought hospitals, schools and development along with their “many” atrocities.
Who can tell me a single advantage of Muslim in Africa?
I have a habit of stopping by airport chapels when I have the time. Most of them have closed down in the US in major airports, but DFW reopened theirs and they’re basically mosques. I had a very uncomfortable experience praying in the chapel on Palm Sunday, but I refused to leave while the Muslims were being so nasty. I refused to leave what is meant to be a temple of the Lord, especially on Palm Sunday. I had a long layover so I waited them out. One man grew frustrated after about 30 minutes and left, but not before others came in. They were clearly having conversations about me in Arabic. They weren’t being shy about letting me know they were talking about me. But I sat and prayed and read the Bible and I did not leave until the last Muslim had cleared out. It was actually a very scary experience given how isolated the chapel was, but I think we need to start staking ground.
Nigerians, wake up!!! America and Israel are behind what is going on in Nigeria.
Who supplies this Alex dude the intelligence to show up at every attack scene before anyone else, and even before Nigerian security forces?
He works for Israel and America. His ‘humanitarian’ organization is called Building Zion.
Stop falling for this gimmick. They have lost a war in Iran and your country is next target.
If you want to end insecurity in Nigeria, sack America now!
