Listen when God speaks (He speaks all the time)

Image
We must never be manipulated by secular thinking because God our creator has some impressive and undeniable ways to make us sensible in His presence. God's creative power is visible and audible. The voice of God is a call to worship.  The One who not only rules the universe but also gives strength to His people. LISTEN WITH THE EARS of FAITH, YOU WILL EAR THE VOICE OF GOD. READ PSALM 29 WAHT BECMOES OF THE TERRORISTS IN OLORUNSOGO, MOLETE, IBADAN, NIGERIA? What becomes of the terrorists in Olorunsogo, Molete, Ibadan, Nigeria? Terrorism is one of the products of lack of parental care for young people. Human decimation is evil and the outcome of depraved minds in leadership positions. However, the government at all levels do not respect human lives. They forcefully take from the poor to enrich themselves and their cronies. Already, the socialization process is broken down. Violent crimes still persist in every part of Nigeria, this is very disturbing, unfortunate, pitiable and a ver...

The Reign of Criminality and Impunity in Ibadan Communities


TOP 25 CRIME RATES QUOTES (of 52) | A-Z Quotes

The relevant law enforcement agencies are well aware of the reign of crime and criminality at Molusi, Solanke, Oyegbami, Olorunsogo, Molete, Oshodi, Aluko, Scout camp, Felele and several other communities in Ibadan, Oyo state. 

But probably due to the involvement of some of the law enforcement agents with the cultists who perpetrate heinous and grievous crimes, little or nothing has been done to reverse the worrisome situation. 

Of worry, is the activities of young boys between the ages of 7 to 18 years old, who converge at a green building just after Femola bus-stop, Olorunsogo, Molete. These boys dispossess passerby of their valuables daily, along the path to city link hotel in the community.

This is with the knowledge of the adults in the community.

This is even if there are several unreported heart rendering cases.

 Since the law enforcement agencies have the responsibility to ensure the safety of lives and property, the unending reign of terror by these cultists, who openly threaten to kill those who question their activities, leaves much to be desired-a point of reference is one 'Samba', a barber, whose barbing shop is among the block of shops located in front of a building at the Aluko/Barracks, Felele/Scout camp/Oshodi Street junction. 

He openly threatens to kill people while at the same time boasting of his connection with some officers and the rank and file of the Police. 

Opposition to their activities is met with attacks and threats by the hoodlums,''Go and call your police.''

Indeed, owners of beer parlors, Ogogoro joints, hotels, and a sizable number of shops in these communities are ready accomplices of these cultists in these communities.

Ceaseless Prayers

Image
 Let us pray ceaselessly for God to open the eyes of those who have political power and have become committed to unjust economic policies and deep social injustices.  Amos 8:4-14 Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail, 5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit? 6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes;  yea , and sell the refuse of the wheat? 7 The LORD hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works. 8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as  by  the flood of Egypt. 9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I wi...
