They never follow their husband.   "They are beautiful to behold in beauty,  they smile all the time,  they stand beside their husband in the church, but they are not who they claim to be.   "They are the direct opposite at home. Stubborn,  rude,  unbroken,  disre...

INEC Dancing N@ked In The Market': Appeal Court Blasts INEC For Acting Irresponsibly INEC Dancing N@ked In The Market': Appeal Court Blasts INEC For Acting Irresponsibly The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, on Friday, descended heavily on the Independent National Electoral Commissioner, INEC, accusing it of being partisan. The appellate court said it was embarrassing that the Commission could appear before it to act in favour of a party in an election dispute, by disowning documents that it not only issued but also duly certified. It decried that the electoral body has continued to “dance naked in the market,” even though it was meant to assume a neutral stand in election litigations. “The INEC as an institution should be reminded of its role in an election; to be an unbiased umpire between parties. “It should stop behaving irresponsibly, having in mind that its duty to conduct election has a direct bearing on peace and well-being of the country. “The role of INEC in electio...

However, I’m not worried because I’m a politician. I know what other states are suffering because of debt, but go and check if I left liabilities; the records are there. I left projects for him to commission so he would showcase during his hundred days, then politics came in. We are just starting; God gave you something; you are now importing crisis. God gave this on the platter of gold; the Federal Government is not fighting you, no crisis, but you are the one now trying to create a crisis for yourself; only those who are natural ingrates will support what is hap...

Ebuka Obi Should Stop Bringing Couples To The Public To Talk Bedroom Affairs In The Name Of Counselling - Nigerian Journalist, Itumo Blasts Pastor  I don't like the way Ebuka Obi brings out couples to the public to talk bedroom affairs in the name of counselling. I don't actually know what that public show is intended to achieve. Is that actually a style or a concerted attempt to draw public eyes to himself and his ministry? If that's actually his style, I don't fancy such a style at all, and I'm quite sure that many discerning minds don't fancy it too. His newest position about marriage ultimately has much to say about what he knows about marriage _it shows his 'indepth' knowledge of marriage. Ebuka Obi recently submitted thus, "I'm Afraid Of Marriage, That’s Why I Haven't Married Till Now”. Without sounding judgemental, his latest submission on marriage and his lack of preparedness to get married shows he might be unaware of the scar he...

The Ethiopian bible, written in Ge’ez an ancient dead language of Ethiopia, is nearly 800 years older than the King James Version and contains 81-88 books compared to 66. It includes the Book of ENOCH, Esdras, Buruch and all 3 Books of MACCABEE, and a host of others that was excommunicated from the KJV. This bible has been saved by a British charity which located it at a remote Ethiopian monastery. The incredible Garima Gospels are named after a monk who arrived in the African country in the fifth century and is said to have copied them out in just one day. Beautifully illustrated, the colours are still vivid and thanks to the Ethiopian Heritage Fund have been conserved. Abba Garima arrived from Constantinople in 494 AD and legend has it that he was able to copy the gospels in a day because God delayed the sun from setting. The incredible relic has been kept ever since in the Garima Monastery near Adwa in the north of the country, which is in the Tigray region at 7,000 feet.

The world has about 7,111 languages according to Ethnologue. A staggering third of these languages are endangered and only spoken by very few people, 1000 speakers at best. What is even more serious is that more than 50% of the world’s population is covered by 23 major languages. Languages appeared about 100.000 years ago and have been evolving ever since. Languages are always in a state of flux; some die out and some branch out and give us more languages.

Fast forward to this year, 3rd of February precisely, I made a random post about the fact that “men should learn to show emotions and not see it as a weakness”. He dropped a comment and came to my dm to further explain his point” “We got talking and finally got to ask questions about ourselves. You know that moment when you chat in-depth with someone for the first time and it feels like you both have known for years right? That was the case!

Is climbing as innate as sharing, copulating, greed, or even walking? Many evolutionary biologists would offer that the essence of climbing can be found in our DNA. It is hardwired into us, this desire to be in the vertical world. And beyond that desire, our bodies are built for the physical challenges of climbing. How did humans transform from tree swinging monkeys (the third chimpanzee) to plains walking hominids? Here is a glimpse into the evolutionary traits that allow us to freely climb, why we enjoy it, and why some of us are better than others. We currently share approximately 99% of our DNA with chimpanzees (believed to be our closest relative). Our genetics are expressed in all aspects of our physical, mental, social, and even spiritual lives. For example, alcoholics and smokers are genetically inclined to addiction.  There are genes in our DNA that are believed to express our level of need for explaining the world around us (spirituality). The amount of muscle on your for...

"The Kiss of Death' known as el Petó de la Mort is a sculpture created in 1930 for the tomb of textile manufacturer Josep Llaudet Soler.  The tomb is inscribed with a line verse by the Catalan poet Jacinto Verdaguer that translates to: “His young heart is thus extinguished. The blood in his veins grows cold. And all strength has gone. Faith has been extolled by his fall into the arms of death. Amen.” The masterful sculpting on el Petó de la Mort has made it a celebrated piece of funerary art. Delicate details carved into the marble capture both soft skin and the bony fingers of death. The piece is believed to have been sculpted by Jaume Barba, the artist whose name is carved into the base of the monument, though some have attributed its design to another artist, Joan Fontbernat. The Poblenou Cemetery, also known as Cementiri de l’Est (East Cemetery), was the first to be built outside the walls that marked the perimeter of medieval Barcelona.  A cemeter...
