*One mistake you should never make with ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES.*
Don’t ever plug in an electric iron, hot plate, or electric kettle with your left hand.
Why?
Because your heart is located slightly towards the left side of your chest.
Now, here’s the truth:
Electric shock follows the path of least resistance in the body.
If CURRENT enters through your left hand, it can pass dangerously close to your HEART, increasing the risk of CARDIAC arrest.
So what should you DO instead?
★ Always use your right hand to plug and unplug electrical appliances.
★ Keep your hands dry. Never handle appliances with wet hands.
★ Wear rubber-soled slippers when using appliances, especially on wet floors.
★ Don’t fix electrical faults if you’re not trained. Call a professional.
★ Keep electrical items away from water sources and children.
It’s not superstition, it’s science and safety.
The heart is not replaceable. Be wise And be Guided.

CUNNILINGUS TIPS
The Best Clitoris Toy 🌬
CUNNILINGUS TIPS
The Best Clitoris Toy 🌬
Her clitoris has a favorite toy. And it’s not plastic.
Yes, the right penetration can get her off. Fingering can too.
But when it comes to her most intense, consistent, and addictively satisfying orgasms…
Oral is king.
Because no finger, no penis, and no toy can mimic the wet, sensual symphony of your tongue, lips, and breath working in perfect unison.
Let me show you why oral isn’t just a skill—it’s a superpower.
Your Tongue Is a Precision Weapon of Pleasure
Your tongue is the only muscle in your body not limited by bones. It’s agile. Soft. Responsive. And it’s packed with sensory receptors that give you instinctive feedback with every flick, press, and swirl.
It can mimic suction, pulse like a vibrator, move endlessly without tiring.
And when you add your warm breath and moist lips? The experience becomes deeply human—and insanely erotic.
That’s what makes it better than anything store-bought.
Suction, Kissing, and Her Clit’s Hidden Hunger
Her clitoris isn’t just sensitive—it’s strategic.
It responds best to variations: soft licking, then deep suction… a flick, then a kiss… a still moment, then sudden pressure.
And here’s a secret: sucking her clit mimics the exact rhythm of top-selling toys. But you have something better—you’re alive.
You can tease, adjust, whisper, wait.
Her body knows the difference.
Saliva: Nature’s Lube (and Bonding Agent)
Saliva doesn’t just make things wet—it makes them feel.
It reduces friction, yes. But more importantly, it blurs the line between skin and desire.
A wet clitoris reacts differently. Her moans deepen. Her hips roll. Her body trusts.
And when your spit is dripping down her lips and you don’t stop? That’s when she bonds to you. Not just physically… but emotionally.
Oral Is More Than a Skill. It’s a Signature.
A toy gets turned off. A hand gets tired. A penis might need a break.
But your mouth?
When mastered—it becomes legendary.
She’ll crave the feel of your lips between her thighs. She’ll dream about the way your tongue circled, teased, pressed, devoured.
And when she talks about you to her friends? She’ll whisper one thing:
“That man’s mouth… changed everything.”CUNNILINGUS TIPS The Best Clitoris Toy 🌬 CUNNILINGUS TIPS The Best Clitoris Toy 🌬 Her clitoris has a favorite toy. And it’s not plastic.

Kperogi Tenders Public Apology To Former First Lady Aisha Buhari Over His Facebook Post.
Prominent Nigerian academician and columnist, Farooq Kperogi, has tendered an unreserved apology to former First Lady Mrs. Aisha Buhari over a controversial Facebook post he made on July 16, which he now admits caused her significant distress.
The post, titled “Aisha Buhari, Divorce, and Forgiveness Claim,” generated widespread reactions after it suggested a strain in the late President Muhammadu Buhari’s marriage to Aisha Buhari—a claim Kperogi now concedes should never have been made public.
In a remorseful statement, Kperogi described the post as “one of the worst and cruelest lapses of judgment” in his life, admitting it has brought him “unfathomable personal anguish” in recent days.
“Although I absolutely should have foreseen it, I honestly didn’t anticipate the profoundly painful consequences my update would have on Mrs. Aisha Buhari and people closest to her,” he wrote.
While Kperogi maintained that his source for the information remains credible, he accepted full responsibility for making it public, admitting that “not every well-sourced information is for public consumption.”
The former Special Adviser to the First Lady on Public Affairs, Alhaji Sani Zorro, reportedly reached out to Kperogi to question the accuracy of the claims and to affirm on Mrs. Buhari’s behalf that her marriage remained intact until President Buhari’s death.
“I will not contest the particulars and veracity of the information with Alhaji Sani,” Kperogi said. “After all, as the late MKO Abiola memorably said, no one can give you a haircut in your absence.”
He emphasized that Mrs. Buhari reserves the sole right to define and speak to the status of her marriage. “Her truth should be respected as supreme,” he added.
While noting that he had no malicious intent or external influence, Kperogi said he now recognizes that the impact of his disclosure far outweighed its factual basis.
“To Mrs. Aisha Buhari, I offer my heartfelt and unreserved apology for the needless and deeply regrettable hurt I have caused. I am truly sorry,” he concluded.Kperogi Tenders Public Apology To Former First Lady Aisha Buhari Over His Facebook Post.

PRESS RELEASE
PEACEFUL PROTEST BY RETIRED POLICE OFFICERS: POLICE SETS RECORDS STRAIGHT, ASSURES OF SECURITY, PRESERVATION OF DIGNITY
The Nigeria Police Force has noted the ongoing conversations surrounding the peaceful protest being organised by some of our retired officers in relation to their pension entitlements. While some of these accounts are grounded in fact and driven by good faith, others have been marred by misinformation, emotional manipulation, and calculated distortions designed to discredit the Government and undermine the present leadership of the Nigeria Police Force.
It is disheartening to observe how certain actors have chosen to politicise a sensitive welfare issue, weaponizing the legitimate grievances of our retired colleagues for ulterior motives. Their intent is not reform, but disruption. Their tactics involve twisting facts, inflaming sentiments, and sowing distrust in the public space. These actions do a disservice not only to our noble institution, but to the integrity of public discourse in our country. We however remain focused on the real issue which is the welfare of those who once bore the burden of national security with courage and honour.
The agitation for improved police pensions, particularly the call for exit from the Contributory Pension Scheme (CPS), is not a recent development. It has spanned over a decade. Since 2014, successive Inspectors-General of Police have demonstrated empathy, engaged critical stakeholders, and provided institutional support for this cause. Yet, despite these earnest efforts, the desired outcome has remained elusive; not for lack of will, but due to entrenched legal provisions, fiscal limitations, and administrative bottlenecks. The hard truth is that exiting the Police from the CPS lies beyond the remit of any Inspector-General, as the matter is deeply woven into a web of statutory mandates, inter-agency protocols, and policy inertia.
Moreover, expert projections indicate that as the scheme matures, its benefits are expected to significantly improve. Officers retiring within the next five years are projected to receive significantly more favourable pension outcomes than those currently exiting the system. In practical terms, this means that the longer one remains in the scheme, the less likely they are to experience the same pension challenges. This evolving reality demands a pragmatic review of our approach.
In recognition of these constraints and shifting dynamics, the current Police leadership is pursuing a dual-track strategy of supporting the agitation in principle, while urgently exploring innovative, alternative solutions to address the immediate plight of our retirees. These include utilising internally generated revenues from police services to provide supplementary pension benefits; and mobilising private sector and corporate support for the establishment of targeted pension enhancement initiatives.
These interventions are already underway and reflect a broader, more holistic strategy to elevate the welfare of our retired personnel, not merely through policy debates, but through tangible results. The Federal government has been sensitized enough and appropriate responses are being awaited
Let it be stated unequivocally that this explanation is not intended to suppress the planned protest. On the contrary, it reflects a leadership that listens, understands, and engages in good faith. The Inspector-General of Police has interacted extensively with many retired officers over the past year, and several groups have since withdrawn their support for the protest, having appreciated the direction of current efforts. However, for those who still choose to proceed, their rights will be protected. The protest is scheduled to take place on Monday, 21st July 2025, primarily within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and any other State Command where prior notification has been duly given.
Accordingly, the Inspector-General of Police has directed all Commissioners of Police to ensure the peaceful conduct of the protest within their jurisdictions, especially in the FCT and other states where formal notice has been received; provide adequate security coverage to our retired colleagues who have chosen to publicly express their grievances; prevent any hijack of the protest by miscreants, political actors, or non-retired agitators; sensitise officers and men under their command on the constitutional rights to peaceful assembly, and the obligation to show utmost respect to our retired colleagues; while deploying intelligence and operational resources to protect lives, maintain public order, and safeguard institutional integrity.
The Inspector-General of Police charges all officers to note that this protest, described as “the mother of all peaceful protests”, must not only be peaceful; it must be exemplary, and as such should stand as a national model for dignified expression of grievance and responsible public order management. We must show, by conduct and command, that the Nigeria Police Force is both professional and humane. He further reiterates that this is more than a directive; it is a call to institutional responsibility, a test of our maturity, our values, and our discipline.
Let us rise to this moment with wisdom, restraint, and unwavering respect for those who served before us. Serving officers are however warned not to be misled by those who either are ignorant of the ethics of our profession or are up for manipulations and disruption.

The Tale of Alaafin Ajaka and Sango: A Story of Brotherhood, Power, and Legacy in Yoruba History
The Beginning: Ajaka’s Peaceful Reign
In the early history of the Oyo Empire, two royal brothers—Ajaka and Sango—would leave a lasting imprint on Yoruba culture, history, and mythology. Both were sons of Oranyan, the founder of the Oyo Empire and a descendant of Oduduwa, the legendary progenitor of the Yoruba people.
Ajaka, the elder of the two, inherited the throne of Oyo as Alaafin (king). He was known for his calm, diplomatic, and non-aggressive nature. Unlike many of his predecessors who expanded their territory through warfare and power politics, Ajaka chose to rule through peace, tolerance, and dialogue. He emphasized internal development, peaceful coexistence with neighbors, and restraint in conflict.
However, his peaceful disposition was not well received in a time when strength, military might, and fear were key instruments of governance. His preference for peace was seen by many warriors and chiefs as a weakness, and this sentiment began to grow among the influential Oyo Mesi—the council of kingmakers tasked with keeping the Alaafin in check.
The Dethronement of Ajaka
Tension eventually boiled over when Ajaka refused to respond aggressively to provocations from surrounding kingdoms, especially the powerful Owu kingdom. When he avoided military confrontation with Owu and instead sought peaceful negotiation, the Oyo Mesi perceived this as a betrayal of Oyo’s warrior heritage and military dominance.
The Oyo Mesi, led by Bashorun (the head of the council), used their constitutional power to dethrone Ajaka, sending him into exile. His removal was seen as a corrective measure to restore the authority and reputation of the Oyo throne.
In his place, the council sought someone with a fiery and commanding presence—Ajaka’s younger brother, Sango, who had been building a name for himself in Nupe country.
The Rise of Sango
Sango was everything Ajaka was not. Where Ajaka was calm and diplomatic, Sango was bold, impulsive, and strong-willed. Trained as a warrior and rumored to possess supernatural powers, he had become famous for his magical control of lightning and thunder. He was charismatic, fearless, and deeply respected by military leaders.
When he took the throne, Sango launched campaigns of expansion, reasserting Oyo’s dominance. Under his rule, Oyo’s military power grew, and he appointed great generals such as Timi Agbale Olofa-Ina and Gbonka, who were instrumental in enforcing Sango's authority.
But while Sango’s military might restored the glory of the Oyo Empire, his fiery temper and growing pride became his downfall. According to legend, Sango’s magical powers, which he used to call down thunder, accidentally caused a fire that consumed part of his palace. In one version of the tale, he was overcome by guilt and shame and hung himself. In another, he disappeared into the heavens, transforming into an Orisha (deity)—thus becoming the god of thunder and lightning in the Yoruba religion.
Ajaka's Return to the Throne
After Sango’s mysterious and tragic end, the Oyo Mesi, now more cautious, looked to the past for stability. They recalled Ajaka from exile and offered him the throne once again, making him one of the very few monarchs in Yoruba history to rule twice.
This time, Ajaka returned not as a soft ruler, but as a wiser and more assertive king. He had learned from the past and chose to balance peace with strength. While still diplomatic, he no longer tolerated insubordination or external threats without consequence. His second reign was marked by moderation, growth, and a restored sense of unity in the empire.
Legacy and Significance
The story of Ajaka and Sango is more than a tale of two brothers—it is a study in the contrast between peaceful diplomacy and militaristic power, between restraint and aggression, between myth and history.
Sango’s deification and Ajaka’s rare return to the throne show how Yoruba culture weaves human leadership with spiritual symbolism, highlighting that no ruler is perfect, and no form of leadership is absolute. Ajaka’s patience and evolution into a more assertive king suggest that wisdom sometimes lies in waiting, while Sango’s fiery rise and divine transformation reflect the power of passion and destiny.
What Do You Know About This Story?
This account is drawn from a blend of oral history, myth, and recorded tradition. Different regions and families may tell it differently. Some say Sango never died but became a god. Others say Ajaka ruled for many more years in peace. What version have you heard?

However, his peaceful disposition was not well received in a time when strength, military might, and fear were key instruments of governance. His preference for peace was seen by many warriors and chiefs as a weakness, and this sentiment began to grow among the influential Oyo Mesi—the council of kingmakers tasked with keeping the Alaafin in check. The Dethronement of Ajaka Tension eventually boiled over when Ajaka refused to respond aggressively to provocations from surrounding kingdoms, especially the powerful Owu kingdom. When he avoided military confrontation with Owu and instead sought peaceful negotiation, the Oyo Mesi perceived this as a betrayal of Oyo’s warrior heritage and military dominance. The Oyo Mesi, led by Bashorun (the head of the council), used their constitutional power to dethrone Ajaka, sending him into exile. His removal was seen as a corrective measure to restore the authority and reputation of the Oyo throne. In his place, the council sought someone with a fiery and commanding presence—Ajaka’s younger brother, Sango, who had been building a name for himself in Nupe country. The Rise of Sango Sango was everything Ajaka was not. Where Ajaka was calm and diplomatic, Sango was bold, impulsive, and strong-willed. Trained as a warrior and rumored to possess supernatural powers, he had become famous for his magical control of lightning and thunder. He was charismatic, fearless, and deeply respected by military leaders. When he took the throne, Sango launched campaigns of expansion, reasserting Oyo’s dominance. Under his rule, Oyo’s military power grew, and he appointed great generals such as Timi Agbale Olofa-Ina and Gbonka, who were instrumental in enforcing Sango's authority. But while Sango’s military might restored the glory of the Oyo Empire, his fiery temper and growing pride became his downfall. According to legend, Sango’s magical powers, which he used to call down thunder, accidentally caused a fire that consumed part of his palace. In one version of the tale, he was overcome by guilt and shame and hung himself. In another, he disappeared into the heavens, transforming into an Orisha (deity)—thus becoming the god of thunder and lightning in the Yoruba religion. Ajaka's Return to the Throne After Sango’s mysterious and tragic end, the Oyo Mesi, now more cautious, looked to the past for stability. They recalled Ajaka from exile and offered him the throne once again, making him one of the very few monarchs in Yoruba history to rule twice. This time, Ajaka returned not as a soft ruler, but as a wiser and more assertive king. He had learned from the past and chose to balance peace with strength. While still diplomatic, he no longer tolerated insubordination or external threats without consequence. His second reign was marked by moderation, growth, and a restored sense of unity in the empire. Legacy and Significance The story of Ajaka and Sango is more than a tale of two brothers—it is a study in the contrast between peaceful diplomacy and militaristic power, between restraint and aggression, between myth and history. Sango’s deification and Ajaka’s rare return to the throne show how Yoruba culture weaves human leadership with spiritual symbolism, highlighting that no ruler is perfect, and no form of leadership is absolute. Ajaka’s patience and evolution into a more assertive king suggest that wisdom sometimes lies in waiting, while Sango’s fiery rise and divine transformation reflect the power of passion and destiny. What Do You Know About This Story? This account is drawn from a blend of oral history, myth, and recorded tradition. Different regions and families may tell it differently. Some say Sango never died but became a god. Others say Ajaka ruled for many more years in peace. What version have you heard? What do you know about the story of Ajaka and Sango? What lessons do you think it teaches about leadership, power, and legacy in Yoruba history?0 Commentarios 0 Acciones 55 Views 0 Vista previa -
*OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL*
*DATE: SUNDAY, JULY 20TH, 2025*
*THEME: GOD HATES LONELINESS*
*MEMORISE:*
*“God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.” - (Psalm 68:6)*
*READ: Isaiah 34:16-17 (KJV)*
16. "Search from the book of the LORD, and read: Not one of these shall fail; not one shall lack her mate. For My mouth has commanded it, and His Spirit has gathered them.
17. He has cast the lot for them, and His hand has divided it among them with a measuring line. They shall possess it forever; from generation to generation they shall dwell in it."
*MESSAGE:*
In Matthew 6:9, Jesus taught us to start our prayers with Our Father. God is a "family man'. He loves the concept of family and hates loneliness. In Genesis 2:18, He said that it is not good that a man should be alone. If you're of marriageable age and can't seem to find the right companion to get married to, or if there are forces preventing you from getting married, I pray that the tide will turn this year, in Jesus' name.
During one of our programmes several years ago, God's word came that the mother of one of the sisters in the congregation was diabolically preventing her from getting married. God said that the mother would be buried within seven days if she continued to prevent her daughter from getting married. The following day, a lady came with her mother to my office. The mother was furious, and she said, "You ****** prophets brainwash our girls. Imagine telling my daughter that I am responsible for her not getting married." I replied, "Me? Sister, did I say that? What God said is that the mother of a sister in the congregation was preventing her from getting married. Did I mention your name?" Then I turned to the mother, "Mama, don't mind her. Nobody mentioned her name." The mother then asked her daughter to leave my office because she wanted to speak with me alone. As her daughter went out, she turned to me, "Pastor, is it true that the mother of the fellow concerned will die?" I said, "I'm not talking about you, but what God said will come to pass. Before the week ends, whoever it is will be buried." The woman began to stammer, "I'm not asking her not to marry, but who is going to take care of me after she's married?" I said, "That's simple; I can make her and her husband promise to take good care of you." The lady, who was almost 40 years old and had not had any suitors, got married within six months.
In today's Bible reading, God promised that nobody will lack their mate. If you are feeling lonely, I pray that God will restore the broken relationships in your life or send the right companions your way. For someone reading this today, God will deal with anybody who says that you will not get married. He will settle you maritally in due time, in Jesus' name. God's word will never fail; keep trusting in Him.
*PRAYER POINT:*
Father, please always send the right companions to me, in Jesus’ name.
*BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:*
Isaiah 20-24

*HYMN 6 - I AM SO GLAD THAT OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN*
1. I am so glad that our Father in heaven
Tell of His love in the book He has given;
Wonderful things in the Bible I see;
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.
*CHORUS:*
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me,
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves even me.
2. Jesus loves me and I know I love Him;
Love brought Him down my lost soul to redeem;
Yes, it was love made Him die on the tree:
Oh, I am certain that Jesus love me.
3. In this assurance I find sweetest rest,
Trusting in Jesus I know I am blessed;
Satan, dismayed from my soul doth now flee,
When I just tell him that Jesus loves me.
4. Oh, if there's only one song I can sing,
When in His beauty I see the great King,
This shall my song in eternity be,
"Oh, what a wonder that Jesus loves me!"
5. If one should ask of me, how can I tell?
Glory to Jesus, I know very well!
God's Holy Spirit with mine doth agree,
Constantly witnessing Jesus loves me.*OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL* *DATE: SUNDAY, JULY 20TH, 2025* *THEME: GOD HATES LONELINESS* *MEMORISE:* *“God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.” - (Psalm 68:6)* *READ: Isaiah 34:16-17 (KJV)* 16.
