IS IGNORANCE TRULY BLISS?

I get offended to say the least when people use God's name in their conversations even when it is clear that they live their lives quite opposite to what he says.
People just don't get it. You cant be dressing half naked, acting sex scenes, selling porn and nudity, breaking up other peoples marriages and then say you are going to heaven because you believe in God. Someone even said the only requirement for entering heaven is believing in Jesus. Please don't be deceived and stop spreading lies and deceiving other people as well. Believing in God must go together with repenting of your sins. And no you can't just do some things and be a christian at the same time. Christianity is not organized religion, you don't get to make your own rules. 

For the sake of little children watching and listening to entertainment, God is not immoral and doesn't accept the lifestyle of many entertainers. Whatever is not godly is not acceptable to him and many of the people who say these things are blind to their own ignorance. Truth is missing from their lives. How then can they model anything but destruction?
The impact can be felt in society, destroying the very essence of  responsible living and pulling down the walls of morality and values needed for nation building. They are economically engaged and their songs are being played in night clubs, the only achievement they've been able to record while adding value to no ones life.

THE GAINS AND LOSSES OF THE ABSENCE OF MR PRESIDENT: BY UWAKWE ROLAND.

President Muhammadu Buhari has been absent from duty since the last few months on a purported medical checkup in London. Good a thing he legally transferred power to the Vice President who is now the acting President, this is unlike the imbroglio that played out during Yar’adua’s time when the National Assembly had to invoke the doctrine of necessity so as to effectively transfer power to then Vice President Goodluck Jonathan. The problem is that even as an acting President, Yemi Osinbanjo has limited powers to fully assume responsibility as the commander in chief, this is because most of the big government functionaries may still owe their loyalty to Mr President, couple with this, Buhari appointed people of his like minds who may not comfortably work with the acting President that will want to bring his knowledge of law and practice into governance. Hence the long absence of Mr President may eventually result to a slow down of democratic dividends. The above ...

DANGER OF A SINGLE STORY: THE CASE OF OWERRI

It was the young female novelist, Chimamanda Adichie who first drew the world’s attention to the dangers of a single story and warned that if we hear only a single story about another person, city or country, we risk a critical misunderstanding. Hence, I intend to do a series on the danger(s) of a single story. Owerri is the capital city of Imo state with a population of 127,213 people (2006 Census). It is one of the fastest growing cities in Nigeria and based on the relative peace in the city, Owerri attracts a lot of visitors and investors. However, there is a growing perception both in and outside the city that, it is a city of pleasure seekers and yahoo boys. Nduji Chukwudi Destiny, recently posted on his Facebook wall that: “if you are in Owerri and you are not into politics, prostitution or Yahoo, my brother forget it, nothing for you”. While few persons may get some meaning in the above remark by Destiny. I think it is an exaggeration and a wrong...

RAPE, ITS JUSTIFICATION AND VICTIM SHAMING

It's sad that this is a world where things are not perfect but isn't that why we have laws; to correct the ills in society? I read today on a blog about a filmmaker who said that "nonviolent rape" should be legalized and that the reason rapists were raping girls was because they were sexually frustrated and that girls should accept it and even prepare themselves for it by carrying condoms and cooperating with their rapists. In fact it is clear that civilization is beyond running water and having flushable toilets, a lot of minds are still in a dark place. Before you join the number of people condemning him, think of how you shame victims of rape by suggesting that somehow they did something to provoke the animal instinct in the rapist. The dust hasn't settled yet on the case of Busola Dakolo and Biodun Fatoyinbo where an Abuja high court struck out the case and called an abuse of court processes and said it was statue barred. They were irregularities as cited by ...
