So guys, when you want to send a dm to a lady, remember that how you do it in most cases determines whether you get a reply or not. But anyhow you choose to do it, don't forget to respect yourself in the process. After sending a Hi, take it further with what you intend to say. Use the person’s name. Hi Damilola. Then go straight to the point. Hi Damilola, I apologize ahead if you don't appreciate DMs from strangers but this is the only channel I have for now. I see your tweets often, I like how you pick your words in conversations and the calm decency your personality exudes. I've liked a couple of your pictures that caught my attention some times ago, I do think you are kind of person I could reason along with. That's just the whole point of this DM. I'll take your reply as a yes to continue all I have to say. Till then Babajide Blunt If you don't get a reply, never send a follow up. Respect yourself.

Okay. Note I said “usually”. My current client is indeed an American and one of my best clients yet. But most of my bad experiences have also been from the U.S. So that’s that

I see this has sparked a lot of debate. For those unsure about what’s wrong, the preacher based his message on ideas that aren’t really biblically accurate. His point was that being spiritual isn’t enough; that political power is also needed. To support it, he cited Elijah anointing Elisha and Nehemiah rebuilding Jerusalem’s walls so Ezra could preach. But these examples don’t fit the biblical record. First, God doesn’t need political power to accomplish His purposes. The very idea of having a king wasn’t His plan — it was Israel’s rebellion. 1 Samuel 8:6–7 “But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, ‘Give us a king to judge us.’ And the Lord said to Samuel, ‘They have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them.’” God wanted Israel to rely on Him alone spiritually. He hates the trust in horses and chariots. Joshua conquered Jericho without an army alliance or a formal government. God Himself brought down the walls. Pharaoh’s defeat came through God’s direct hand, not political power. Also, can we call Moses a president? No. He was a president as much as Samuel was a president over Israel. They were leader prophets, not political authorities. Jehoshaphat’s army watched as God fought for them. And when Ahaz prayed, an angel struck down 185,000 Assyrians. So Pastor Dolapo’s argument doesn’t align with Scripture. He also said, “Ezra needs a Nehemiah,” but biblically, it’s the other way around. Ezra came first, reestablishing the Law after captivity. Thirteen years later, Nehemiah rebuilt the wall. Sixty years before Ezra, Zerubbabel and Joshua the high priest had already rebuilt the altar and the temple. Preachers shouldn’t say things along the line of “being spiritual isn’t enough.” That’s a popular but misleading idea. If being spiritual means being aligned with God’s will, then what else do we need? God acts regardless of human limitation. He doesn’t need political or economic systems to fulfill His plans. Sometimes He uses them; often, He doesn’t. So what should be preached is simple: God is enough. If we truly know Him, we’ll see that He alone is sufficient. Amen.
