The Day Abacha Died!
If Christians don't Bless the People, then who will?
Posted by Ambassador T .Brikins
Africans and
indeed Nigerians don’t rejoice or speak evil of dead persons. But the day Abacha
died…exactly nineteen years ago by June 8, 2017!
I was forced by the roar outside to dash to the balcony of my office overlooking the historic Queens Street in
Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria. The people shouted. The people leaped and jumped hysterically in diverse directions. They embraced and
carried one another. They raised beer bottles to the open skies. They sang. They
danced.The vehicles blared and hooted their horns in mad frenzy. My radical professor friends from the University of Lagos which is near came with
green branches of trees in their hands, waving and dancing to the rhythmic chorus,
’Abacha is dead, Abacha is dead, Abacha is dead. Abacha don die’’.
This hysterical expression of happiness marked
the end of military rule and the commencement of Nigeria’s march to democracy
amid bumps on a road yet to be scientifically defined after 18 years of democratic rule.

General Muhamadu
Buhari, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria who has been ailing was
absent today as the nation celebrates its Democracy Day... The Vice- President
Professor Yemi Osibanjo marked their two
years in power. However, the reason for democracy Day in Nigeria is beyond
personalities. It is about Nigeria as a nation.It is about the well being of Nigerians.

Supernatural Secrets of Successful Marriage 3
...The Power of Word Pictures and Power of the Word
We can realize our dreams in marriage. But dreams require actions or engagement of relevant knowledge. About three years ago, a grandmother approached me to narrate her marital pain. She had been married for about thirty years. The marriage was blessed with male and female children who at the time were University graduates and in good employment.
To her surprise, her husband who is an ordained minister married another woman and brought her to the matrimonial home. This was on for about twelve years when she narrated this story to me.
My advice was simple but I made her realize that believing is an active verb that does something and it is also work.
I commended her to God, and to the word of His grace, which is able to build a marriage up, and to give her a blissful marriage inheritance among all of them which are sanctified. (Acts 20:32)
She was made to focus, imagine, confess, meditate, pray and praise God for His word concerning marriage. She carried the vision of a blissful Edenic marriage despising the urgly reality in her home. She never let go from her consciousness the pictures the word showed neither did she waver but maintained absolute believe in the power that word of God carries.
Three years later her marriage was restored as she desired. The other woman left.

Why do we marry? How compatible are our purpose for love and marriage with Biblical Principles on love and marriage?
Social Trends sometimes reflect the biblical purposes of marriage especially in the West. This trend played out in a Survey carried out on Love and Marriage by Pew Research Center in the United States of America in February 13,2013. In the report, 93% of married did it for love while 84% of the unmarried said they will marry for love.
87% married for making a life long commitment and 74% will marry for long life commitment.
81% married did it for companionship while 63% of unmarried will marry for companionship.
59% married for having children while 44% of unmarried will marry for having children.
31% married for financial stability while 30% of unmarried will marry for financial stability.
The research asked married and unmarried separately...1,306 for married 1,386 for unmarried.
Apart from financial stability, the other motivating purposes for marriage align with biblical purposes. But the question would be why the problems and high divorce rate in marriage ?

Halima Babangida
Posted by Ambassador T. Brikins
Wedlock is a voluntary relationship that locks up a man and a woman
intimately into one in all things. The positive prescription to successful
marriage is to understand the purpose,
character and power of God’s
word concerning marriage, live by the picture it inspires and do it.
What is the purpose, character and
power in God’s word concerning marriage?
The new couple and the Bride's Father General Ibrahim Babangida
It was a
gathering of who – is- who in Nigeria on the 12th of May at Minna,
Capital of Niger State, Nigeria. Private
and public activities stopped for the wedding of Nigeria’s former military
President General Babangida’s daughter Halima. It was emotional as Halima, the
baby of the Babangida family was born when her father was military President of
Nigeria. Inside reports have it that the birth was a serious medical case at the time
as her late mother was said to have reached an age deemed unsafe for child bearing.
The birth of
Halima also revealed IBB’S love for children. A cartoonist depicted the
military president in military uniform feeding the new baby from a feeding
bottle on a sofa. When the president was in the midst of journalists he asked them who did the work and actually congratulated the cartoonist for depicting
what he actually does.

Its been a very long day at a Summit.
I sat there reading through tens of pages of presentations, googling in my media pad to cross check in the internet facts and information, listening to presentations, discussions, questions, chatting with seat neighbors and taking notes.
Back in my Hotel room at close to mid-night I gunned straight to bed after having a barbecued cat fish dinner by the pool side.
