For @fijnigeria, I smuggled 100 bags of rice from Benin Republic into Nigeria.
I found out Customs bosses took bribes from smugglers, then betrayed their colleagues by updating smugglers on the itinerary of patrol officers.

I spent my Christmas and the days preceding and succeeding it sneaking from Nigeria to Benin Republic and then Togo before ending up in the deserts of Burkina Faso.
Six straight days on the road without a bath, 11 days overall in harsh climates and unsavoury sanitary conditions. I only subject myself to this kind of torture when I think I’ve found a big story to sink my teeth into.
As usual, I fell in love with an unusual song: ‘Tientigui’ by Ivorian reggae singer Ismaël Isaac.

The scriptures contain the living, faultless, and infallible word of God that possesses within it the power to order the course of a man's life when he uses it.
We must read the Bible, memorise it, and have it at the tip of our tongues at all times, both as a weapon of warfare against the enemy and as a re-assurance of what the Father has said concerning us.

Thank You For Climbing With Us.
It's been 7 days of glorious appearances of the Father and the Son; the Lion and the Lamb.
A thronic event collided with the earth; the earthquakes and thundering took away wrong natures from our souls.
What a joy it has been to drink into the life of the Father.
We pray that we will not fall short of the conversation of this glorious appearance.
Keep beholding the Lord.

Most unpopular truths in this generation:
1. Abortion is murder. It is sinful.
2. Homosexuality is evil.
3. There are only two genders in the world - male and female. Science can never change that.
4. Submission in marriage is not akin to oppression or subservience.
Sin teaches a wisdom of independence from God. When God covered Adam and Eve with the skins of animals, He was teaching them to rely on Him instead of the fig lives they made out of their knowledge of sin (Romans 14:23).
