7 THINGS THAT CAN MAKE YOU BROKE FASTER THAN VILLAGE PEOPLE 😂😂 Forget jazz, forget enemies from the village—some of you are going broke at lightning speed, and it’s not because of witchcraft. Your own lifestyle is the real problem! If you're always wondering "Who is eating my money?"—relax, Oga. The answer is you. BRUTAL THREAD: 1. CHASING EVERY WOMAN YOU SEE You think you're James Bond, moving from one fine girl to another, sponsoring their hair, nails, and data? Brother, you are your own Yahoo boy. 🤣 One babe says “I need urgent 2K”—you send. Another one says “My rent is due”—you pay. Next thing, your account balance is calling for GoFundMe. Meanwhile, the same girls are in group chats laughing at you: “This guy dey try sha.” Solution: Stop being an ATM with no PIN code. Focus on one woman or yourself first. 2. LIVING LIKE A BIG BOY WHEN YOUR ACCOUNT BALANCE IS SHOUTING HELP Your salary is 50K, but you're in clubs ordering Hennessy like Davido. You don’t even have a car, but you're buying drinks for strangers—WHO SENT YOU? 😭 Rich men are saving, you are spraying money. Dangote is investing, you are doing “Odogwu” at the bar. Elon Musk is buying companies, you are buying bottles for slay queens who don’t know your surname. When the landlord comes for rent, you’ll start saying “Boss, abeg, things hard.” Solution: Cut down on fake luxury. Even Jeff Bezos wears simple T-shirts. Be wise. 3. SENDING MONEY TO FAMILY LIKE CBN Your uncle calls: “We need money for burial.” Your aunt calls: “No food in the house.” Your younger brother: “School fees.” Now your account is empty, but when you need help? Nobody picks your call. Oga, you are not the Minister of Finance. Even government doesn’t share free money like you do! Solution: Learn to say NO sometimes! Help when you can, but don’t let family turn you into their personal budget. 4. ALWAYS BUYING THE LATEST PHONE TO IMPRESS WHO? Last month, you were using iPhone 12. This month, you saw iPhone 15 Pro Max and sold your kidney to buy it. Next month, iPhone 16 Ultra Mega Max will drop—what will you sell next? Your destiny? 😭 Meanwhile, the person you’re trying to impress is using Tecno Pop 5 and doesn’t care. Solution: If your current phone is working, rest. Your future is more important than “Dynamic Island.” 5. FALLING FOR EVERY FAKE INVESTMENT SCHEME They told you "Invest 50K, get 500K in 2 days." You ran like Bolt, deposited your money. Now, they’ve blocked you, and you’re writing epistles on Facebook: “Dear Nigerians, beware of fraudsters!” 🤣 Oga, they didn’t scam you, you scammed yourself! Any investment that sounds like magic money is a Ponzi scheme in disguise. Solution: If you don’t understand the business, don’t put your money there. Learn to invest wisely! 6. GOING BROKE JUST TO IMPRESS SOCIAL MEDIA Your house rent is due, but you're buying designer shoes to take pictures for Instagram. Who told you “likes and comments” can pay rent? You posted “Soft life only.” But in real life, you’re trekking and borrowing money for food. If your phone falls, you’ll cry because you can’t afford to fix it. 😭 Solution: Stop forming fake rich life. Invest first, flex later. 7. BEING TOO LAZY TO MAKE MORE MONEY You sit at home, scrolling Facebook from morning till night, complaining: “No job, Nigeria is hard.” Meanwhile, opportunities are passing you by! Are you expecting an angel to drop money from the sky? People are making money online—you are watching TikTok videos all day. People are learning skills—you are arguing about football. People are opening businesses—you are waiting for your rich uncle to die so you can inherit land. 🤣 Solution: Get up and hustle! Even the Bible says “A lazy man shall not eat.” BOTTOM LINE: If you're always broke, stop blaming village people. Your habits are the real witchcraft! Live within your means. Invest before you flex. Stop impressing people who don’t care. Make smart financial decisions. If this post hit you hard, don’t cry. Just change your ways! 😂😂😂 Follow Abasiodu Ekpenyong for more brutal truths that will save your life!

MEN, Listen Carefully 1. Respect yourself first. The moment you lose self-respect, you become a pawn in someone else's game. 2. Your appearance is your first impression. Invest in yourself, hit the gym, dress well—not for them, but for you. Confidence follows discipline. 3. Master self-control. A man who can control his cravings for sex and food has already conquered most of his weaknesses. Discipline is the key to power. 4. Your friends have battles too. Stop expecting them to always come through. Everyone is fighting a war you don’t see. 5. If you put her on a pedestal, she will look down on you. A king doesn’t beg for loyalty; he earns it through strength and purpose. 6. Betrayal always comes from those closest to you. Be wise with trust. Your worst scars won’t come from strangers. 7. They will mock you, doubt you, and dismiss you—until you succeed. Keep building. Let success be your response. 8. Temporary sacrifices lead to permanent stability. Missing out on fun today is not a loss if it guarantees a better future. 9. Weak men seek pleasure, strong men seek purpose. Build, create, and contribute—don’t just consume. 10. A true man doesn't beg for love, attention, or respect. He commands it through his actions and presence. 11. Your time and energy are valuable. Don’t waste them on lazy, entitled people who bring nothing to the table. 12. A woman can sense a weak man from miles away. Once she detects neediness, you’ve lost her respect. Don’t chase—lead. 13. If she isn’t afraid to lose you, you are replaceable in her eyes. Become the kind of man she values, not the one she tolerates. 14. Life is ruthless. One wrong move and you can lose years of progress. Move with caution and wisdom. 15. Never negotiate desire. If you have to beg for love, respect, or attention—it’s already gone. Walk away with your dignity intact. 16. Your mental health is your responsibility. When you're down, accept reality, strategize, and rise stronger. No one is coming to save you. 17. Never lower your standards to accommodate mediocrity. Protect your peace and purpose at all costs. 18. Pain is the best teacher. Bad days make good days more valuable. Learn from every struggle. 19. In this world, respect is earned, not given. Be the kind of man people look up to, not the one they pity. 20. A man with a mission is unstoppable. Find your purpose, chase it relentlessly, and let nothing distract you.

So called because it brings out his priestly role, offering prayers and sacrifice for the people as well as for himself(Heb. 5). Jesus mediates for us to the Father. He prays for himself; that his Father will glorify him and he prays for us; that we may be united. Unity is a strong weapon against the devil. Unity is not uniformity. Unity is not (cooperatio in malo - cooperating in evil). Unity is having one heart and mind and working for a common good goal. The Holy Spirit aids us to communicate unity, love, peace and forgiveness. Let us listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit, the great communicator._ YouTube Link: https://youtu.be/bU8XK8BPN74 *Fr.
