His case is not strange in Nigeria.
At the beginning of the year, Statista released a report forecasting the unemployment rate in Nigeria for 2022. The report estimated the unemployment rate in the year at nearly 33%, a 0.5 increase from the previous year at 32.5%.
Also, in 2020, Nigeria’s statistics bureau, NBS, said in its unemployment report that about half of the nation’s 76,562 doctorate degree holders within the labour force were either jobless or underemployed. This report means that having a school certificate, up to a doctorate level, does not guarantee employment in Nigeria.
This data has been recycled in other reports on unemployment in Nigeria even though the recent massive migration of young talents to well-developed countries to seek gainful employment points to the escalating unemployment crisis in the country.
Since 2014, Nigeria’s working-age population’s unemployment rate has spiked drastically, leading to a massive efflux of skilled workers and migrants from Nigeria over the last few years.
I even have simply back from a experience to Turkey, wherein I turned into on a pilgrimage to a number of the seven church buildings of Asia, additionally referred to as the seven church buildings of Revelations.
I visited Smyrna (now called Izmir), Pergamum (now referred to as Bergama, and Ephesus (now called Efes).
Prior to this go to, I had visited Laodicea (now referred to as Laodikeia). There aren’t anyt any remnants of a number of the opposite church buildings, however I did get to look Cappadocia.
And then I went to Istanbul and the metropolis blew my mind. It turned into my 0.33 go to to Istanbul, however my first time staying at the Asian side.
Istanbul has a wealthy records that may likely carry you to tears. This town was referred to as Constantinople, and become the middle of orthodox Christianity, till on 29 May 1453, whilst it turned into conquered via way of means of the Muslim Ottoman Empire. Note I stated Muslim Ottoman Empire, now no longer Islamic Ottoman Empire.
The Ottomans have been Muslims, however they have been now no longer clearly Islamic. In fact, they even conquered the Arabs, and from the sixteenth Century to their liberation with the aid of using the British thru Lawrence of Arabia, Saudi Arabia become beneathneath Ottoman rule.
The fall of Constantinople and the Byzantine Empire intended that Cristian Europe not had a buffer towards Muslim (now no longer Islamic), enlargement into Europe, and one via way of means of one, European Christian town states and countries started out to fall one after the opposite.
And why did the conquest appear? It occurred due to the fact there has been no cohesion In Christendom (political Christianity). The Byzantines had been Orthodox. The Roman Catholic Church taken into consideration them rivals, instead of brothers. And the Balkan Christians could now no longer even assist them. Rather, they had been suspicious of them.
When the Byzantines had been beneathneath siege through the Ottomans, the Roman Catholic Church, in place of assist them, insisted that they have to first receive their dogmas (Trinity, Mary veneration, Christmas, purgatory, idols, the alternate from the fish because the real image of Christianity, to the pagan Ankh (disguised as a Cross) etc) as a circumstance for his or her assist. Out of desperation, the Orthodox Church voted to just accept the Pope’s terms, however the humans of Constantinople refused and rioted, as opposed to be given what they believed to be an adulteration in their religion via way of means of the adoption of pagan European doctrines masquerading as Christian doctrines.
There are approximately 20,000 of those pure, Orthodox Christians left in Turkey and I even have had the honor of preaching to them and getting to know from them.
A comparable loss of team spirit had in advance brought about the Islamic (now no longer Muslim) conquest of a lot of Spain in 711 AD, which caused 800 years of Islamic rule in Iberia.
And the Byzantines had been additionally partially guilty for his or her personal destruction. While the Byzantines had been busy constructing awe inspiring church buildings, basilicas, theatres and marble roads, the Muslim Ottomans had been razor centered on constructing a political motion and an army.
And after they have been ready, they descended at the Byzantines, and militarily defeated them, and now, all their awe inspiring church buildings, basilicas, theatres and marble roads belong to the Muslim Ottomans, and feature so belonged to them for nearly six hundred years.
Fast ahead to 2022, and the All Progressives Congress is imparting Nigerians with a Muslim-Muslim price price tag, of which Kashim Shettima, the Borno Governor below whom Boko Haram thrived and metastasised into the global terror institution that it now is, and once more below whom they invaded the Christian enclave of Chibok, due to the fact Shettima refused the Federal Government’s suggest now no longer to keep WAEC examinations at Chibok, is now assuring us that he can be in fee of protection, successfully making Bola Tinubu a puppet, if in any respect he’s elected.
If you do now no longer see parallels among what took place to Constantinople and the Byzantine empire and what the All Progressives Congress desires to serve Nigerians, then you definitely have glaringly now no longer been paying attention.
In the final seven years of just about demonic mis-governance with the aid of using the All Progressives Congress management of Muhammadu Buhari, we’ve visible a sudden, unapologetic and 0 sum like shutting of the authorities area to human beings of the Christian persuasion.
Never withinside the records of this kingdom have we ever had the pinnacle of the executive (the President), the top of the Legislature (the Senate President), and the pinnacle of the judiciary (the Chief Justice of Nigeria), all Muslims. I imply the imbalance is unprecedented.
And you then definately visit the subsequent layer of authorities, that’s the navy and safety services. The heads of the Ministry of Defence, Army, Navy, Police, NSA, DMI, EFCC, DSS, DIA, NPS, NCS, NIS, NIA are all Northern Muslims. Where is the stability?
And withinside the midst of this, the All Progressives Congress desires to boom the quantity with a Muslim-Muslim price price tag? Think of the mental harm it’ll do to the minds of Christians. Even if it isn’t always uttered, it’s miles already clean that the All Progressives Congress sees us as a conquered those who do now no longer depend and who ought to receive their 2d magnificence citizenship fame with out elevating dust.
And do now no longer assume the All Progressives Congress will forestall at their Muslim-Muslim price price tag. Did the Ottomans forestall in Constantinople? No. They conquered the Arabs, who have been Muslims like them. They took Jerusalem. They moved into Europe. Greece fell to them. Then the complete Balkan Peninsula. Then modern-day Romania. And on and on till they took over Hungary and had been stopped on the borders of Austria.
If everyone had instructed you Imo, Ebonyi and Cross River could be All Progressives Congress states, might you’ve got got believed it? But there it’s miles.
Nigerians ought to open their eyes and prevent believing that it can’t occur here. Are we higher than Lebanon? Lebanon changed into the most effective solid democratic and multi non secular us of a withinside the Middle East, till the Christians there slept on their rights, and have been quickly beaten via way of means of big immigration from Islamic countries that made them a minority of their personal us of a.
What is to prevent the equal from taking place here? Tinubu and Shettima can open the borders Nigeria stocks with Niger Republic and Chad to alternate Nigeria’s demographics and make it not possible to vote out their birthday birthday celebration in destiny elections, in the event that they win in 2023.
I became in Bethlehem in 2018. The identical factor came about to that metropolis in which our Lord and Savour changed into born.
You see, records does now no longer repeat itself. Men repeat records and blame records for repeating itself.
Nigeria have to maintain its spiritual stability via way of means of respecting every religion and balancing our authorities and public sector. The Peoples Democratic Party respects that stability. The Labour Party respects it. But the Muslim-Muslim price price tag of Bola Tinubu’s All Progressives Congress does now no longer appreciate our non secular diversity. And a vote for Tinubu may also lead Nigerian Christians to the equal destiny of the historic Christians of Asia Minor (now called Turkey).
So, allow us to overlook our divisions and unite in opposition to this imbalance. Whether or now no longer you’re Roman Catholic, Anglican, Methodist, Baptist, Pentecost, Evangelical, Charismatic, Celestial, or another denomination I actually have now no longer noted here. No that people who need to whittle down your religion see you as one. Therefore, you higher additionally see yourselves as one. Or you pass the manner of the Byzantines.
May that by no means befall us in Yeshua’s Name.

2023: APC May Lose North As Some Of Our Members Are Working For Atiku – APC Chieftain Laments
A chieftain of the party, Chief Jackson Lekan Ojo, told newsmen in a telephone interview yesterday that, “There is palpable fear that the APC will lose in the North. And if they lose, where are they going to get their votes from to retain the presidency?
“Ethnicity and religion will play key roles in the emergence of President Buhari’s successor. For me, I have not seen the light at the end of the tunnel; I’m seeing only darkness in the APC.
“The core Fulani people will not vote the APC. The core Hausa people will not vote the APC, because Shettima is not their brother; he is a Kanuri man and they are in the minority. And remember, the Hausa/Fulani people are united.
“This will affect the chances of the APC. I know some staunch members of the APC who are working for the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar. What it means is that Atiku will get the majority of votes from the North, and especially from the Hausa/Fulani structure.”
