There was no ambiguity in your earlier statement. It's just satanic children who play politics with everything showing their lack of comprehension.
If I was to give an opinion on this, I'd say it's been highly embellished.
Some of the circumstances are just to highly improbable and extreme.
So, whatever truth might be in it had been corrupted by the embellishments.
You see, people are not crazy. You don't see them getting angry at this.
FLASH: President Tinubu @officialABAT
media aide on constituency affairs, HON. KHADIJAT OMOTAYO KAREEM, DONATES 132 HOSTEL BED SPACES TO LASU FOR INDIGENT STUDENTS, ) to support indigent and vulnerable students, including persons living with disabilities.
And note that the tithing was for "increase" not the entire product. So why is anyone asking for the tithing of people's salaries?
This is the first broad explanation of the subject of tithing in the Bible. It explains circumstances, occasions and purpose.
I have always wondered why Pastors are not comfortable with this passage.
And to my mind, if we followed this in principle, we won't even need to be walking about evangelizing.
Churches will be full for every service. But you see, there are competing priorities. Power and Control is more important.

Imagine that every person took their tithes, went to the market, bought foodstuff, came to the church on Sunday and shared it with other members, in the spirit of Deuteronomy 14.
Do you think churches would need to advertise programs?
Imagine that the APC Youth leadership took the money meant for those SUVs and identified 500 prominent APC young voices across the country, asked them to nominate their preferred locations and then sank boreholes (or carried out some project) in those communities.
Do you think those APC youths would be more inclined or less inclined to mobilize for the party in those locations?
But, as always, there are competing priorities.
The comfort of the leaders is more paramount.
With the sort of people advising that boy, don't expect him to act differently.
The party must learn to survive in spite of him.
Very well deserved.
He may not be the best footballer but over the course of 15-18 months, there was no footballer more consistent in performance than Harry Kane.
Congrats to Harry Kane for winning the Ballon D'Or.

Cristian Chivu was 18 when he arrived at Ajax in the summer of 1999. He had lost his father a year earlier, and he knew almost no one in Amsterdam. He lived alone in a Holiday Inn hotel room and was driven to training by a driver. After about six months he moved to a house in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel, which gave him peace.
On the pitch it started badly too. He was sent off three times in his first months. “I was still a child and wanted to show myself too much, so I made mistakes,” he said later.
Ajax, under Jan Wouters, were struggling. It was the club’s centenary season and the big birthday match came on 19 March 2000, against FC Twente. Chivu was in the starting line-up. Ajax wore historic kits and over 40,000 fans came to celebrate. Twente scored in the 28th minute and Ajax lost 0-1. Twente had a man sent off before half-time, and Ajax still couldn’t find a way through. Ajax finished 5th that season.
When Leo Beenhakker became technical director in 2000 things began to change. In the summer of 2001 he brought in Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Maxwell, Mido and Hatem Trabelsi to the club. They joined a young squad already built under Co Adriaanse, including Andy van der Meyde and a young Rafael van der Vaart.
Adriaanse was sacked in November 2001 and Ronald Koeman took over. He immediately made Chivu captain, at just 21 years old. On 5 May 2002, away at NEC, Ajax won their first Eredivisie title Since 1998. Chivu was photographed afterwards with a torn shirt, mud all over him, wearing the captain's armband with the Amsterdam city's coat of arms.
A week later, Ajax beat Utrecht 3-2 in the cup final, with Wamberto equalising from offside position in the 90th minute and Zlatan scoring the golden goal in extra time. Chivu won the Golden Shoe that year, and was named Ajax Player of the Year for 2000-01 and again for 2002-03.
David Endt, Ajax' legendary team manager, took the unwashed, mud-caked shirt home and hung it in his office at the Amsterdam ArenA for years. It is now on loan to the Amsterdam Museum. As Endt put it: ”You never win with a clean shirt."
Happy birthday Cristian Chivu.
The core of the message should be based on the fact that we're also going through it but we trust the man at the helm to make the right decisions, even if they're tough ones for the future of the country.
We simply could not have continued on the path we were. There was simply no other path than this one.
As Progressives we must recognise that millions of Nigerians are going through a difficult phase, and young people are searching for opportunities.
As we campaign for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, our message must not be rooted in arrogance. It must be rooted in empathy. We must listen to the pain of the people, acknowledge their challenges, and communicate hope with sincerity.
If we want Nigerians to trust our message, we must first show that we understand their realities and stand with them through difficult times.
Let our campaign be defined by compassion and a genuine commitment to a better future for Nigerians. #ReElectPresidentTinubu
This nonsense attitude started when PMB was inaugurated and the first thing APC youths thought was okay to go and eat rice in Aso Rock.
Nigeria was in the midst of a recession, exchange rates were yoyoing up and down, the price of crude was crashing but the most important thing to do was not to strategize and mobilize the masses. It was to chop rice.
Then PBAT won and they felt it was okay to throw parties in different cities across the country to celebrate.
There was so much work ahead and PBAT was calling all of us to join hands and help push through these tough and austere reforms for the good of the nation, but it seemed more pertinent to you lot to party and groove.
The gravity of the times we were embarking on was lost from that moment and it remains intractable and irretrievable till today. Don't blame Dayo alone for missing the point.
It's not just Dayo that is the problem. He's just an annoying symptom.
All of you need to sit down and ronu.
Your mindset is elitist and that's why you find it difficult to mobilize the masses.
It may be why Dayo doesn't even pretend to try or to care.
Progressive politics is not elitist politics.
Progressive politics is masses-based, masses-derived and masses-sustained.
I can tell you for free that any day APC leaves office, some of you will do jail.
Ẹ ma s'ẹwọn.
You're just lucky that the opposition is equally useless.
And if I might add, it's not just Dayo Israel.
Yes, he is the leperous finger that everyone sees but many of those criticising him are not much better.
Some of you, we see your sudden ostentatious displays and your "buga" and we wonder how much gangan is your salary from the little appointment they gave you.
Many of you, Dayo included, simply have no tact. You may not like it but you also need to re-examine yourself.
It's embarrassing that the harsh policies of the government, which we know are needed and necessary, are tougher to sell because of your shameless self-serving, self-indulgent and self-gratifying displays.
Yes, Dayo Israel is a problem. A big problem, but he is not the only one.
This is what I've always said about that man-child.
There is no point in explaining any economic reform of the president to the common man when a youth leader with nothing upstairs, an empty barrel, can confidently come online to display brand-new cars for his boys.
What a foolish guy with no sense of awareness or emotional intelligence. And I also blame the weak opposition for his rascality, maybe if they had active youth leaders he could have learnt one or two things from them.
The country is struggling to increase the minimum wage, fund salaries for health workers, soldiers, lecturers, and students; businesses are groaning under high lending rates; but this airhead who can't articulate his impact on the people feels it's the right time to post luxury cars for some random nonentities.
We give struggling students loans, then splash N150m on cars for youth leaders and flaunt it in their faces. What is this guy's input in the party? All he does is fly private jets, sleep in hotels and flaunt his lavish lifestyle in the faces of struggling Nigerians.
He doesn't join spaces, you won't see him on TV speaking to the party manifesto, he does nothing.
I implore all the sensible youths in the party to sign a petition for the APC Youth Leader's resignation. The cars should be retrieved and sold and the money, wherever it came from, channeled to either Nelfund or the Basic Health Provision Fund.
I need someone to create the petition link, we need to get this dunce out of that office. His brain has migrated to his protruding stomach. Absolute nonsense...

Hello @officialEFCC , our youth leader bought 7 Prado jeeps for him. In short, the total cost around one billion naira.
Can you please invite him to explain the source of his wealth?
If you cannot invite him, then, your fight against corruption is selective.
Thanks.
