Genevieve Nnaji said that she is too busy developing herself to have the time to sit down seeing the movies she acted…

Omotola Jalade said that she can’t remember the last time she sat down to finish a movie, including the ones she acted…

And you wonder why for the past 20years, their faces have not lost market value…

But you said that you will use this global lockdown time to finish all the seasonal movies in the market…

You have contacts of all the movie dealers in the area who supplies movies to you even during this lockdown…

You are even bragging that you are current with all the current movies…

That is the same thing some of your ancestors did that made none of them to make a mark in their time…

Stop wasting your life infront of television…

Use this season to upgrade…

If all your friends knows where to rent films but not where to rent books, you don’t have friends yet…

When will someone from your father’s house appear on television?…

With all your beauty…

With all your intelligence…

Please, don’t continue like this…

Me, I want to see you on t.v…

I am tired of seeing you in cinemas..

Me, I want to come to cinema and watch you…

I want to open the page of newspapers and see you…

I want to hear your name on the radio…

You can be the person to attract CNN to your village for interview…

I didn’t say that you should not see movies…

I might even be more current than you with the current movies now…

But, I can’t be busy watching people who are fulfilling their own purpose when I am doing nothing about my dreams and visions…

Stop stealing time from yourself…

Going to jug every morning will make you mantain shape, but watching television from morning till night will make you lose mental shape…

The world is waiting for trailblazers…

Those who are awake when others are sleeping…

Don’t just grow like this…

If not you will end the same way your parents and elder ones ended…

The only differenc

Apostle Johnson Suleiman the General Overseer of omega fire ministries worldwide, during the march Friday vigil revealed the truth behind covid-19 and the agenda of some of the world power to create a new order. In a 5 mins message, the servant of God revealed what was going to happen and here is what he said.

“The lord said I gave this world to man and as such I don’t do anything in the world until man invites me with understanding in the place of prayer. The nation in question (China) has sinned greatly against the Lord. They wanted to make thier own moon shine brighter than the natural moon. Their power tussle is between a particular nation and they want to bring that nation under their feet.

“Covid-19 is an experiment and they are happy that they could shake the world and they would wait for another two years. In 2022 if I tarry to come, something worse will still come and it will originate from them.

“The world leaders are coming together to make a synergy that will make all religions have a common ground and the pope is part of it. America is thier target but the current president Donald Trump is their obstacle. America should not joke with the next general elections as they will all support the opponent.

“The opponent is not the issue but his running mate is the issue. The running mate is a lady and If the opponent wins, the opponent will be impeached for the lady to take over and fulfill the new world order.

“Their agenda is to humiliate him(Trump). They have succeeded in humiliating him while they are free from it but the prayer of the saints will reverse it and America will be healed. The virus was manufactured by this people (China) it is not a biological issue, it is a chemical weapon.

“Many people contacted it through testing, once you go for the test you are infected. The few that are not positive is to balance the equation and make people believe it is real.

“The vaccine will come, but the vaccine will carry the actual disease. It is loaded with signals to control the human body by sending signals from the body to their data base, that would be the only proof to them that you are safe, virus free and you are not contaminated.

“When they tell you to take the vaccine and you refuse, you’ll be denied alot of things. Italy was sacrificed for this agenda because the pope is a part of this that is why we saw almost the largest cases in Italy it was not coincidence, it was a sacrifice.

“The policy of not having people gather together to reduce and contain the virus is targeted at disrupting the believers from gathering to pray because they know when believers gather together to pray thier plans and agenda will end up in futility we must not keep quiet as the prayers of the saints will stop them.

“All believers must lift up thier voice against the spirit of the new world order and scatter the agenda of the anti christ. They will come up with a new currency to unify the world and solidify control. Purify your body of any sin because they target your body.

“They have tried this and it has worked. By June to August different agenda to unify the world will begin. Kuwait, Malaysia, Egypt, Singapore, hongkong, Thailand, Madagascar, Saudi Arabia, America, needs special prayers.

“If the church can pray using Jeremiah 17:14, Matthew 17:14, the anti christ will not over come the church. If the church rise up in unity, purity and prayers then God will rise up and prove that he is still on the throne.

Change your mindset after reading this.

Most times when we walk into big malls, boutiques and supermarkets we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff.

But the moment we are out of these shops and want to buy banana and peanut our bargaining power rises to the roof.

A poor woman with hungry children at home tells you banana is N100. She even takes her time to explain how difficult it was for her to buy it from the market. But we insist that if it’s not N50, we are not buying.

Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away. But because ‘half bread is better than none’, the woman is forced to run after you and sell at no gain.

In her heart she cries, she’s worried about how she’ll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that ‘It’s well since she is not returning home with the banana. Her motivation is God will definitely provide some other day.

Meanwhile you drive off and happily chop the luscious banana.

Take some seconds to think about this.
Am always moved to tears when I see people who genuinely and helplessly hawk petty goods to feed and survive for that day, especially women and children.

Please don’t bargain too hard with small vendors. They do business not to buy designer bags, trendy phones, watches, shoes or designer clothes, but to FEED the family and CARE for the children in school.

This touched me when I realised it … so lets CHANGE our ways. Its another way of spending on humanity in the will of God.
“He who gives to the poor lends to his Maker”.

Hi,

I think for some of us, it does not seem like so long a time that we were saying happy new year. Yeah, how time flies! But it is what it is—May!

Possibly, this year has brought a mix of emotions and experiences. For some it has been more wins than anything else. I assume there may be a list of those whose experiences have been everything but good. And, no doubt, there’s a group, which I’d identify with, who’d say it’s been just another year, no different from the former.

Yesterday, I caught myself thinking about the coming year, which is not a bad thing to do. But it got me worried because it seemed I’d given up on 2019 already. No, I told myself. There’s time left: fifty-eight days is quite some time to reach for what you desire. And for those who believe in miracles and divine arrangements, the rest of the year is more than enough time for something big to happen.

I pray for beautiful moments this month, pleasant surprises and a resilient spirit, to keep our heads up and our feet going.

A lad full of life and innocence, he is. Little wonder, even with raging hormones typical of a schoolboy, he could avert his gaze from the nakedness of a pretty, young seductress, while saying an emphatic ‘No’ to her. His view of life is untainted, unbiased; a beautiful naivety, not considering how quickly angels can become demons or how cruel the world can be. To him, everything is possible—everything!

Our conversation on Friday was brief. But it was long enough to stoke a dying fire in me. I listened with interest as he hinted about the ventures he’d soon start. His words and zest to make a difference, unknown to him, poked me in the heart, and raised a myriad of questions, too: You once had his kind of energy, Victor—are you going to allow those events rob you of it? Is it still possible to be that person again? Will you just let go?

Really, as the months—and years—go by, with life’s crazy twists and turns, it is not uncommon for the fire that once burned in us to lose its intensity.

And that’s the reason I chose to put these words together.

As the year counts the remainder of its days, it is possible that in our hearts what used to be a fire now is a tonne of ash or, perhaps, fading embers.

If a few minutes of conversation with a boy could touch my heart, I feel a post like this could be helpful.

Keep the flames aglow.

Some of the great institutions we admire today started small. If you’ve been using mobile phones for a while, you’ll probably be one among those who appreciate the advancement in technology—no doubt, your first mobile device could do no more than take calls and messages. Some weeks back, I stumbled on a write-up I’d written about eight years ago. The punctuations were so out of place, it seemed like a piece I’d written in a different lifetime.

So, dear, quit the worry; where you are today is not entirely a bad place. A better you is not a lost cause.

Keep striving, keep pushing. Learn from your mistakes, learn from other’s too. Cry, if you have to. And it has never been a good idea to measure one’s progress with another’s yard stick.

In all you do, grow.

Life is a mix of possibilities and uncertainties.

But considering the demands of a typical day and the life you hope to make for yourself, not forgetting the likely twists and undeserved turns along the way, it sometimes may seem an overwhelming venture.

I won’t say I adhere to these all the time—for that would be me telling a lie—but I know they are helpful. They are common and practical tips you already know. I only seek to remind you:

• Life is best lived one day at a time.
• There’s hardly an arrangement that goes exactly as planned. Relationships wither—even those you’d have sworn would not. Don’t kill yourself yet. One or the other has happened to almost everyone.
• Find a healthy way to relieve the stress. From experience, I find it hard taking to people about stuffs; I’d rather take a long evening walk. Find out what works for you.
• Remember: Although we’re all on same road, our journeys differ.
• Occasionally, or as often as you can, look beyond yourself. There is life in the smile of someone less fortunate or experienced whom you’ve helped. Especially, one who has nothing to offer in return.

If you’ve got other tips you hold dear, and you are willing, please do share.

It was supposed to be just another conversation—pleasant, ordinary, and brief. But that day it was all except ordinary.

“So, how are you holding up at work?”

“Fine,” I said. And knowing the extent to which I dislike a response that simple in conversations, I added, “It’s fine, because I try not to let the stress—and occasional dramas—get to me.”

He smiled, but it was noticeably and unusually weak. I also noted a somewhat tired look in his eyes. But I knew I was in no position to ask any questions beyond the ordinary. We were not equals, and that’s in many ways other than our obvious age difference. And I had no intention to abuse the privilege he’d given.

“How’s work and your family, sir?”

“Fine,” he said. While keeping his gaze fixed on me, he tried to mimic what I’d earlier said: “And that’s only because I try not to let the stress—and occasional dramas—get to me.” It sounded quite funny. That was the only time he laughed. I did, too.

Then came the question that defined this conversation. “Do you sometimes envy me?” He was looking at me; he wanted an answer.

Here was a man who had a life I still dream of: a wife and three lovely kids. He had influence, no matter how small. Not forgetting his position where he worked, which many would kill for.

“Sir, the word envy is just what I have a problem with,” I said.

“Okay. Let me ask same question in another way: Would you like to have the kind of my life?”

“Yes.”

He smiled again. And it had all the markings of the one before it. But this time, he was shaking his head—like you probably would when you disapprove of something.

“You can say that because of what you think my life is. In reality, it may be far from what you think,” he said. After a faint chuckle, he added, “It is far from what you think. . . . Be careful what you wish for.”
