How possible is it to be in a location and later create that location?
God is not in heaven, Don’t just read… study, think, research.
Louis – The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.

Belle – GOD ALMIGHTY IS EVERYWHERE. I DON’T KNOW WHY YOU WANT TO PUT THIS ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

The Statement made by the alleged student nurse is a clear demonstration of ignorance about the Nursing and Midwifery professions and therefore the public should treat it with the contempt it deserves.

“Clapping for Jesus is wrong” – Clergyman, Abel Damina tells Christians (Video)
Popular clergyman, Abel Damina, has preached against clapping as a form of worship in churches.
The clergyman during a recent sermon in his church stated that clapping as a form of worship to God is unbiblical.
According to him, in the scriptures, clapping is a form of mockery, so it’s wrong to use the same for God.
He pointed out that the Bible instructs Christians to worship God with our hands lifted up, not jammed together. Damina also asserted that God should be worshipped on his own terms and not based on human understanding.
His words,
“How can you clap for Jesus. You clap for yourself, clap for your uncle, clap for your president, then you clap for Jesus, are they mate? In the bible when he says clap, it actually saying mock the people, clapping is for mockery. That’s why in the new testament there’s no teaching on clapping…
When it comes to God who exalt an worship him according to the scripture we lift up holy hands. We relate to God doctrinally, when you’re not taught you will still be clapping. The only way we celebrate God’s goodness is by lifting up our hands. We don’t clap for Jesus we wave in honor. You don’t worship God on your terms you worship God on his terms”.

The union which announced that it would be meeting with representatives of government today August 16, said government’s move to placate its members into calling off the strike with salary increment instead of holistically addressing the issues affecting university education in the country is “unfortunate”.
ASUU President, Emmanuel Osodeke, who featured on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday August 15, added that it is sad that the government says it does not have money to meet their demand.
He said;
“The government is not sincere in its dealing with us. This has been the issue all along.
“What we are doing is the sacrifice we have to save this country and its youths. A collapsed university system is a collapsed country and we are almost there. We will not be tired, we will ensure that our university system works.
“We have not heard any serious communication from the government though they have invited us for renegotiation of the 2009 agreement tomorrow (today).
“The issues have to do with funding, structure, autonomy, and how to raise funds for the university system in Nigeria. But the government has reduced the issue to just salary alone.
“If the government has looked at the issues comprehensively, we will not be talking about funding. This government wants to blackmail us with salaries.
“Every university in the world is an autonomous body. You don’t subject the university to public service. This is why we are where we are today.
“The renegotiation started in 2017 when Mr. Wale Babalakin was appointed to chair the talks. We spent more than two years on that.
“That committee eventually collapsed when Babalakin was removed as the Chancellor of the University of Lagos. Another person was appointed.
“Each time a new committee is set up, the first question we ask them is whether they have the mandate to renegotiate the whole agreement with us and they usually answer in the affirmative.
“Imagine since May 2021, we concluded renegotiation and they said they would get back to us. Since then, they didn’t back to us since we started this strike.”
“It is sad for the Federal Government to say it does not have money to meet our demand. If anybody has a will, he or she can get what he wants.
“If the government has the will and believes that education is important, it will raise any amount to fix it.
“This is a government that has given N100 billion for Trader Moni, raised about N200 billion to feed school children? Each of these is more than what we are asking for as revitalisation fund.”
Police officer dragged online for boasting about escaping arrest despite breaking a law because he’s a policeman
A police officer is currently receiving heat on social media after he bragged that an FRSC officer changed his mind about arresting him for breaking a road traffic law after realizing he is a policeman.
Taking to Twitter on Tuesday, August 16, Prince Olumuyiwa Adejobi disclosed that he was driving and receiving a call in Abuja, when a road safety officer stopped him and threatened to arrest him for using his phone while driving.
According to him, when the FRSC official heard him giving orders to the DPO in his station, he mellowed and let him go.
He tweeted,
“I was driving today in abuja, and one road safety officer who wanted to arrest me for using phone, heard me instructing the DPO to put one person in d cell, he just saluted me, and passed me.
“This is to say ‘to every rule, there must be an exception to save some situations’. Lol.”
The tweet has now garnered massive reactions on social media, with many criticizing him for boasting about getting away with impunity.
See some reactions below,
Following the backlash, the policeman claimed the incident never happened and he only shared the scenario to test the power of fake news.
He wrote, “It did not even happen, bc i dont drive myself while on duty, except off duty, and road safety officers dont operate beyong 6pm, or max 7pm. I only tested the strength of fake news, and we can see how its spreading like harmattan inferno.”
“You can be properly dressed and still capture the best husband” – Man advises ladies, commends Mercy Chinwo
A Nigerian man has taken to Twitter to advise young ladies to embrace decency and always be modest in their appearance, citing gospel singer Mercy Chinwo as an example.
The young man, identified as 6ixmangram on the micro-blogging platform, opined that a woman could be fully covered and properly dressed and yet find the ideal husband.
Giving this counsel, he cited gospel singer, Mercy Chinwo, who recently got married to her husband, Pastor Blessed of The Waterbrook Church, as an example, who should be emulated.
He shared wedding photos of the couple and captioned them,
“Dear Ladies you can be properly dressed, fully covered and still capture the best Husband. Decency pays 👌”.

His tweet elicited varying reactions from tweeps. As at the time of filing this report, the post had garnered over a thousand comments.
A Twitter user @AdaNri1L asked,
“Who gave you the yardstick of measuring “best husbands”? Are you in their lives? Stop with this misogyny. Marriage is not an achievement. So many decent girls are unmarried and there’s nothing wrong with that.”
@youwantawar wrote, “Dear insecure men; your opinion about women and how they dress means nothing.It’s none of your business. Fix your own house before judging someone else’s.”

What’s indecent to you might be decent for someone else. You can’t dictate what’s decent for someone. If you don’t like the way someone’s dressed if it doesn’t affect you. Look away☺️

Kaduna train attack: “May this kind of affliction never ever befall you” – Freed passenger Mariama Abubakar Bobbo, writes
Mariama Abubakar Bobbo, who was kidnapped alongside her husband, Abubakar Idris Garba and their four children during the Kaduna-Abuja train attack, has taken to her social media page to share her experience in captivity for the past 4 months.
Her husband is a staff of the National Assembly Commission and son of former military governor of Kano and Benue States.
Taking to her Facebook page on Monday, August 15, Mariama was grateful to friends and family members for their prayers, donations and support towards their release from captivity.
Her post reads;
“Allah tests those whom He loves most. Which of His favors shall I deny?,” .
None!!! He said : I will not give you a burden you cannot bear. After every difficulty there is ease. True He was merciful, He gave us courage to persevere and bear with the situation.
We were always full of gratitude and we put our absolute trust in Him alone for we were sure it was our destiny written by no one but Him and it shall pass at His appointed time.
However, may this kind of affliction never ever befall us and anyone of you all. May Allah protect us all. May Allah reward you all abundantly and replenish you all in folds.
Thank you all for supporting us and standing beside my sister (mother) Rabi Abubakar Bobbo these 4 and half months while we were in captivity.
Let’s continue to pray for the rest in captivity please. We pray collectively at 2:30-3:00am and I try to still be awake to do same. Do join us.
Hasbunallah wa ni’imal wakil 1000 each and La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lahu lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay in qadir 1000 each.
For other faiths any prayers to please God and ask that He manifests their safe home coming is equally fine please. Thank you. Thank you.”

Meanwhile, a UK-based Nigerian lady, Blossom Martins, has said that life abroad is a jungle as she gives an insight into her tedious routine.
Life in the diaspora, according to Blossom, is mostly about surviving, much like it is in a jungle.
Taking to Twitter, she asserted that in contrast to what many people who have never gone overseas may have heard, living abroad is not as idyllic as people make it seem.
Blossom noted that in order to succeed abroad, one must be willing to put in a lot of work and study above average.
To corroborate her claim, Blossom narrated how she had to juggle work, church, and still get rest on a Sunday believed to be a rest day.
She shared a photo of herself going home from work to have a few hours of sleep, after which she would then go to church on Sunday morning and head back to work again.
