This week week I have been attending the IBA Conference in Dubai. Interesting to be with other lawyers to discuss various topics.... Yesterday session was titled Update on Anti-Corruption Enforcement! And ofcourse, I was on the front row...at the back row ironically was the lady Chair of Nigerias EFCC(Commission investigating Economic Crimes)!!! 'Good' thing about Naija is, corruption is a worldwide phenomenon...so we are not the so called black sheep...there are more 'white' sheep involved in the kleptomaniac madness!!! Even The 'Saint' the united states(watch it, the small caps is telling...Lool) however, I am scared to report that it crossed my mind most speedingly and fleetingly, that our dear country, may be bankrupt! They have spent and keep on 'eating' our children's money and resources up to 10 generation as we speak...just like their predecessors bankrupted those of my age(40-50) in the early 80s...No wonder, I am still abroad 'slaving s

God can embarrass your Expert....Yes He can! 2Kings 7:1-2; 17-18 This morning I was just reflecting on what I said during my meeting with church workers on Sunday. Suddenly it dawned on me that what I said casually was a massive revelation. Thank God for meditation in the tranquility of the morning. Psalm 4:4; Psalm 63:6; Psalm 119:15;27. Think of it...God can embarrass your most intelligent professional expert! Say Amen! He can embarrass a lawyer! When a lawyer having looked and assessed a client's case, says 'You are obviously in trouble, this will result in a jail term or there is definitely no way out, the case is lost....' How would he feel, when you call him and say 'Lawyer, you won't believe it, I won that case, I was found not guilty or I got my freedom...' Luke 21:14-18 He can embarrass a Doctor! When a patient with terminal illness is with his Doctor for a final assessment, and the Doctor says 'Sir/Madam....this is terminal, it's the

God can embarrass your Expert....Yes He can! This morning I was just reflecting on what I said during my meeting with church workers on Sunday.  Suddenly it dawned on me that what I said casually was a massive revelation. Thank God for meditation in the tranquility of the morning. Think of it...God can embarrass your most intelligent professional expert! Say Amen! He can embarrass a lawyer!

November: Month of His revealed secret. Our God is good, and I say again our God is good. It's the 11th month and He has given us an insight into what He has in store for us for 2012. My prayer is that we will all enjoy the benefits hidden in that year in Jesus Name. Amen. This month, He has something to tell us about His secret. He has a way of choosing a select few and give them His secrets for various reasons. I believe you are part of that select few. Why? 1. To obtain spiritual wisdom Paul in his letter to the Corinthians, see 1 Cor 2:6-16...confirms that If God want to give you His wisdom, he gives it to you by His spirit. He opens you up to see things others will not see. 2. If you are considered as special. The inner core. Jesus had an inner core that he would show or reveal some things to. They have a higher revelation of Him and His being. For example He only took  Peter, James and John  to Mount of the transfiguration. Now after six days Jesus took Peter, Jame

An Open  letter to Mr President  Goodluck Ebele Nnamdi Jonathan  I write this letter to congratulate you on a resounding victory at the just concluded presidential election. We are believing that the rest of the elections will also be fair and seen as fair, not only by Nigerians, but also by the International community who are desperate for Nigeria, the giant of Africa to take her rightful place. Despite skirmishes, here and there, it is without doubt one of the truest reflection of peoples heartfelt desire to select by election, a candidate on a one man one vote basis. This for most people of good minds and conscience is enough.   A cardinal thrust of democracy for me, is fulfilled. Mr President Sir, now that you have been voted for, I say many questions would be asked of you...in the next 4 years. How you answer those questions will determine the kind of legacy that you will leave in the annals of history of Nigeria. Benjamin Franklin, the great American statesman and leader , was

Phrases I coined whilst teaching a refresher course on marriages. But is it true that you can never as a man satisfy a woman with your love, and also that a woman cant satisfy a man with her submission. Na wah o...if so, should we then choose with our eyes wide opened, and tightly close our eyes after marriage. Yes, exercise your grace to choose, and if you choose wrongly, exercise your grace to bear... What do you think...some singles want to learn

It was fascinating watching the programme last Sunday. The topic: Bankers cant go to Heaven...they are so corrupt....their words not mine. Considering the large bonuses and seismic damage to the world economy, it seems there may be a wide road to the H word, depending on how you it. Are you a Banker/ would you resign your position on such basis? Didn't they say the same of Lawyers

Couple of days ago, a Tribunal of Law found a Christian couple who denied the use of a room in their guest house, to a gay couple based on their Christian belief, to be wrong. They were fined £3000!. What do you think. Some say, you cant have a business opened to the public if you are going to be denying usage to some class of people....Some say rubbish...Fear? Anxiety? One day, a gay couple is going to approach a pentecostal church for permission to use their church building for their wedding...Oh. What do you think? Impossi-cant?

Hey folks, its been sometime. Apology for disappearing off your radar. I have used the entire 2010 to re-adjust my life pattern. Slashing the slasher in my life! Slasher? Yes, a word coined by New York author Marci Alboher. The word descibes a a growing number of people who cannot give a single and simple answer when asked: and what do you do for a living?...e.g Pastor/Lawyer/Businessman/Investor/Speaker/Writer/Singer etc. 2010, no doubt was my best year ever. I have concentrated 99.9% on one thing: Ministry: teaching, developing, mentoring and preaching the word to the men and women of God, and erm...also settling down to looking after our own church building. Busy, but more focused. This is pure Joy. So, what have you been doing...are you a slasher, and if so, how have you been coping?
