There’s this trend of recent graduates projecting themselves as thought leaders or industry experts in their field. Personal branding is great, but don’t rush the process. Building the foundation is key

I will be 44 this year. For every single one of those years, Nigeria has been in a prayer meeting. Not metaphorically. Literally. January fasts. Mountain vigils. Stadium crusades. Begin the Month with the Lord. Revivals that stretched through the night. Shiloh programs. 7 days, 21 days, 30 days. Denominations that disagree on everything else agree on this one thing. Nigeria needs prayer. The prayer points have been the same for four decades. Poverty. Corruption. Bad leadership. Insecurity. I was born into this. Grew up inside it. Wore white for it. Went without food for it. Sat in those grounds. Sang those songs. Believed those promises with everything I had. I am not writing as someone who stood outside and watched. I am writing as someone who knelt on the same floors, waited for the same breakthrough, and is now 44 years old in the same country that was being prayed for before I took my first breath. We are told to keep praying. That prayer is the answer. That if we cry out long enough and hard enough God will turn this nation around. And I believe that. I have always believed that. But I am 44. And I am still waiting for the country the prayers promised. Because I do not believe prayer is the problem. I believe something has been done to prayer. Something subtle. Something that has slowly converted one of the most powerful forces available to a people into a reason to stay still. Spiritual energy that could have become civic pressure became a substitute for it instead. Fervour that could have filled town halls filled altars. Voices that could have demanded accountability learned to direct every frustration upward and only upward. And the people who benefit most from a population permanently looking to heaven are the ones with both hands in the treasury. Prayer was never meant to replace action. It was meant to resource it. To steel the nerve. To clarify the assignment. To send the prophet out of the prayer room and into the palace with something to say. James 2 vs 17 does not say faith is insufficient. It says faith without works is dead. Not sleeping. Not resting. Not waiting for the right season. Dead. Nigeria does not have a prayer problem. Nigeria has a problem with what prayer has been quietly redefined to mean. Thread 2 coming. Because the Bible we carry into these meetings has never once shown us a prophet who prayed and then sat down.

Unfortunately, I can no longer read a "it's not this, it's that" construction without immediately raising my AI hackles. Just total rhetorical style death.

Say what you want about Nigeria and how so much of the chaos here is beyond our control; one thing we can always control is our humanity. So when I see videos like this I’m reminded that we are really wicked in this country; and that our wickedness is deliberate.

Tinubu is not preparing to win 2027. He is preparing to steal it. Dismantle electronic results. Weaken voter ID. Capture the courts. This is a coup by paperwork.

You have to be able to be ok with the fact that someone you don't like is actually good at what they do, man.

Today is my birthday. If this touches your heart. Help me!, I'm so drained in all aspects on this special day. God help me please

This is so irresponsible

The wages of sin na this country.

It is with sorrow and concern that I learned of the recent attacks against various communities in Nigeria leading to a heavy loss of life. I express my prayerful closeness to all the victims of violence and terrorism. I likewise hope that the competent Authorities will continue to work with determination to ensure the safety and protection of the life of every citizen. #PrayTogether

My SS3 set at the Nigerian Navy Secondary school Abeokuta was 156 when we wrote our waec exams in 2002. 165 people died in Kwara yesterday to put it into perspective It means my entire set plus 10 people. Human lives just gone like that.

If you can love, you can grieve. I hate that

the ppl who are willing to identify and name an emotion are always significantly closer to a healthy relationship with said emotion than the ppl who act like it just doesn’t exist

Fulanis have declared asymmetric war on Nigerians and are using militias from the Sahel. Their leaders & politicians are in it. Ammunition found with Malami proved this. You can see the systematic genocide on Christains and the ethnic cleansing of Muslims of other ethnic groups

Villages are disappearing and this is still called banditry. After sustained raids by the Turji’s faction on Magarau village in Sabon Birni, Sokoto, locales fled leaving their torched homes and farms. It is now criminal to call this thing banditry. And it’s not isolated. 1/6

need my own person

"Two of the community head's children, who were medical students, were killed in front of the house before they set it ablaze," This is a blatant state failure. This is gory. How can criminals act for so long without pushback?

Nigerians in Nigeria everyday.

@Bolajiparle Amen amen😂

@Obscurus_x Lmaoo to each their own sha

Hmmm
