  • They stripped Him — not just of His clothes, but of His wealth, His dignity, and His position…
    All so you wouldn’t have to live without them.

    “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might be rich.” — 2 Corinthians 8:9

    Poverty wasn’t part of God’s original plan.
    The first evidence of the fall was nakedness, and the first mission of Jesus Christ, according to Luke 4:18, was to preach good news to the poor — because poverty robs your voice and dims your vision.

    Jesus Christ became poor so you could live in divine provision. You’re not called to lack, you’re called to reign.

    Say it with boldness: "NO MORE POVERTY FOR ME!"

  • MBOMUZO IN OKWUOHIA AUTONOMOUS COMMUNITY,
    OBOWO L.G.A., IMO STATE, NIGERIA.
    Okwuohia is a Community in Obowo
    L.G.A., of Imo state, Nigeria, that has enviable rich historical background and deep cultural heritage. Okwuohia is the only community in Obowo and the old ETITI District that has four markets covering the four market days in Igbo calendar, namely: Eke, Orie, Afor and Nkwo. All these have distinct locations and hold accordingly.
    The community prides herself with many cultural festivals which include Mbomuzo, Ntumaka, Nrim-ji (Iri ji) among others. But the one that attracts people in their numbers to the community is, "MBOMUZO", a-k-a "NKUISI-MKPURU-UKWA".
    MBOMUZO simply means, "clearing of the roads ", otherwise known as environmental cleansing, especially with regard to roads leading to traditional centres and matket places. It is intended to make the roads passable again in order to give proper access to the markets and homes of citizens.
    In Okwuohia, all roads are cleared very thoroughly starting from individual homes to the Eke-Okwuohia, Orie-Okwuohia, Afor-Okwuohia and Nkwo-Okwuohia market squares. Also, roads leading to major and significant rivers are cleared. For instance, the Onu-iyi-lolo-nwanyi (Onu-ngele) stream at Umuduru Mgbakam is usually kept cleared for the "AHIA-NGANGA" ceremony by the women of Okwuohia during the same period. It has to be noted that all the road clearing and cleansing must be completed on or before the NKWO market day preceding the EKE market day of the ceremony.
    NKUISI-MKPURU-UKWA: As said earlier in this write-up, MBOMUZO Okwuohia is also referred to as NKUISI-MKPURU-UKWA. Why?
    Ours, is an agrarian community. In those good old days, our people cultivated yams, coco-yams, maize, cassava and mkpokoro in large scales. Farming was done more at locations far away from homes. Due to this, farmers constructed make-shift structures there in the bush/farms, where they rested and had their meals during the toils of the day. Most times, people returned to their homes very late in the evening. Major foods eaten in the farms those days were bread-fruits (Ukwa), palm kernels, yams and coco-yams. The bread-fruits were eaten whole without removing the the shells or the outer covers. Farming took place between the months of January and May, during which period farmers fed on any available food items. When such farmers returned to their homes from their farms in the month of May, they settled down to enjoy more pleasant and well prepared food. They would no longer eat the bread-fruits with their shells. Also, they cleaned their environments that had been left bushy during the period of intensive farming activities in the farms. From their homes, clearing and cleansing progress to the roads that lead to other homes and traditional centres. At this time, people begin to exchange visits with relatives and friends both far and near to show that they have returned home after the farming period in the bush. Such visits are usually reciprocated. During such visits, entertainments are unlimited based on the dispositions of the parties involved. In Okwuohia, after the entertainment at home, people gather at the designated market square to demonstrate it the more. The venue is usually at the ORIE OKWUOHIA, where the EKWIRIKWE music music is played and danced in an organized manner.
    EKWIRIKWE MUSIC AND ORDER OF DANCING:
    After the presentation and blessing of kola-nuts by the traditional ruler of Okwuohia, who declares the ceremony open after his speech and brief demonstration of the dance, the ceremony begins. Ofeiyi people, who are the custodians of the EKWIRIKWE do a brief demonstration dance. Thereafter, the traditional order of seniority of the three sections of Okwuohia is strictly observed thus: MGBAKAM, OFEIYI and AMARAMOHIA. Finally, a general dance which is usually longer and more thrilling comes up and marks the end of the ceremony.
    The EKWIRIKWE music delivers messages which present Okwuohia as place with people of remarkable mutual respect, prowess and noted for wrestling. EKWIRIKWE music is used to caution Okwuohia people not to eat the bread-fruits with the shells again after the Mbomuzo. Hence, "ONYE ATALA UKWA NA MKPEKELE" and "NKUISI-MKPURU-UKWA". This is demonstrated by hitting one's back-side to symbolically discharge the ones eaten previously. Before the EKWIRIKWE dance arena is approached, people sing various songs and dance along the road according to Age Grades, socicultural groups and sections.
    MBOMUZO AND THE PRONOUNCEMENT OF DATE.
    Only the Eze of Okwuohia, in consultation with you Traditional Council has the powers to announce the date for MBOMUZO every year. Above all, it is a known fact that Okwuohia community is the first among all the communities in Obowo and even the old ETITI District to perform Mbomuzo every year, thus determining the cultural calendar for other communities that perform the same and or related festivals.
    Mbomuzo holds in Okwuohia on the second EKE-Okwuohia market day in the month of June every year. Visitors, friends, in-laws and well -wishers of the community visit the community to enjoy the characteristic hospitality and conviviality associated with the ceremony. Entertainment items are unlimited especially according to the preparedness of the individual families and persons during the period. Such entertainment items include and not limited to polished bread-fruit meals, maize pudding, cassava foo-foo, oil-bean pudding and different kinds of drinks.
    PROBLEMS:
    The festival has suffered from various problems which include but not limited to wrong perceptions, misrepresentation, misconception, ignorance, ineptitude, iconoclasm and apathy. Many, especially the less informed and the neo-religious groups strongly hold to the perception that that the festival is fetish and wasteful (especially those who are not willing to spend their resources to host guests).
    ADVANTAGES:
    The period leads to keeping the surroundings clean, re-union of families, friends, in-laws and well -wishers, tourist attraction and advancing our cultural heritage including ensuring the acquisition and development of the EKWIRIKWE playing and dancing skills.
    In the good old days, women who earnestly took part in the road and market clearing and cleansing and later took part in the AHIA-NGANGA activities after bathing on serious intents at the Onu-Lolo-nwanyi (Onu-Ngele) stream, would appear at Mbomuzo the following year either pregnant or as nursing mothers if they either prayed for or desired such thereby.
    MODIFICATIONS SO FAR:
    Since culture is dynamic, efforts have been made by the leadership of Okwuohia community, over time, to modify certain aspects of the festival and programmes there-of in order to exponge some questionable and undesirable aspects of it. For instance, the timing and declaration of the date of the festival are now done by the Traditional ruler of Okwuohia in synergy with the Traditional Council. Also, no shrine or deity is either worshipped or honoured before, during and even after the festival. Most times, the traditional rulership open the festival with Christian thanks-giving worship at an agreed Christian church here in Okwuohia.
    CONCLUSION:
    In line with the realities of the present moments, efforts should be made to allow for acceptable modifications while there should be insistence on protecting and upholding the soul, spirit and purports of the cultural heritage of our dear Okwuohia community especially as regards affects MBOMUZO.

  • *Your Real Life Partner Is Not Your Spouse!*

    Not your mom.
    Not your dad.
    Not your spouse.
    Not your dear friend
    Not even your children.

    *It’s Your Body!*

    The one thing that stays with you from birth till death is the one you often ignore —
    Your Body.

    When your body is tired, it whispers.
    When you don’t listen, it screams.
    And when it finally gives up,
    no one else can carry that consequence but you.

    What you eat.
    How you sleep.
    The way you handle stress.
    The exercise you avoid.
    The sugar you won’t stop eating.

    They are all love letters or hate mails to your body.
    And your body is always reading them.

    You can replace a job.
    You can marry someone else.
    You can disown whosoever.
    You can borrow money.
    But you can’t trade bodies.

    So start showing up for your realest partner...

    —Eat with intention.
    —Move daily.
    —Sleep like it’s sacred.
    —Think thoughts that nourish, not that which poison.
    —Say no to stress that’s killing you slowly.

    Your body is not a container.
    It’s a companion.
    Treat it like it matters — because it does.

    Indeed, *Your body is where you live... Take very good care of it!*

  • WHY MEN DON’T LIKE TO MARRY ‘GOOD’ GIRLS.

    Let’s talk. And let’s talk honestly.

    You’ve heard it before — “I’m a good girl, I kept myself, I did everything right, yet he still didn’t choose me.”

    Ouch.

    See, this isn't just about good girls not getting married. It’s about understanding the unspoken codes that run beneath the surface of relationships — especially when it comes to love, attraction, and marriage.

    Now let me make something clear: being a good girl is beautiful. It’s noble. It’s rare. It’s powerful. But sometimes, good girls carry a subtle sense of entitlement — that because they've followed the rules, love, marriage, and a good man are automatic rewards.

    They’re not.

    Some men don’t run from good girls because they’re “too good.” They run because:

    1. The goodness is cold.

    Many ‘good girls’ have been trained to be pure, but not warm. Modest, but not kind. Well-behaved, but not emotionally intelligent.

    And the truth? Men crave connection, not just correctness.

    2. They feel judged.

    Some ‘good girls’ come across as superior — “I don’t do this, I don’t do that” — and unintentionally shame men who have made mistakes or who are still growing.

    Nobody wants to marry their moral examiner.

    3. No fun, no spark.

    Let’s be honest — some good girls are boring. They’ve made life so serious, so “don’t-touch-me-I’m-holy,” that they forgot how to laugh, relax, or be human.

    Marriage isn’t just a spiritual partnership; it’s also a friendship. A vibe.

    4. They confuse silence for virtue.

    Meekness isn’t the same as emotional repression. Some good girls haven’t found their voice, their opinions, their uniqueness.

    Men aren’t looking for a statue; they want a soul.

    Listen, my lady, don’t stop being good.

    Don’t throw away your values.

    But add wisdom to your goodness.

    Add depth. Add laughter. Add soul. Be warm. Be fun. Be intelligent. Be yourself.

    Because ‘good’ alone isn’t enough. Be whole.

    I hope this makes sense to you.
