*A Cry for Our Children: A Wake-Up Call to Parents and a Return to Godly Parenting* With a heavy heart, I watched a video making rounds - the SS3 students, young minds who just concluded their WAEC exams, engaging in shameful and immoral displays in the name of celebration. What should have been a moment of reflection has been turned into a festival of indecency and mockery of values. This is not the generation our forefathers prayed for. We are raising a generation that seems to have lost its way—where vulgarity is called expression, and shame is dismissed as old-fashioned. These are not just "children having fun." These are warning signs of a decaying moral foundation. To every parent out there: do not assume your child knows better. Do not assume they are safe just because you provide, clothe, and send them to school. School can never ever do everything. The school can never be successful if a family foundation and culture are not already there. Cultivate moral principles at ages 1 and 12, then the school will build from there. Be close to your children. Talk to them. Know their friends. Know their struggles. Monitor their online habits. Most importantly—pray for them, and pray with them. The truth is painful: many parents are present in the home but absent in the lives of their children. We must return to the way of our grandparents—a way built on discipline, respect, fear of God, and community accountability. They didn’t need the internet to teach values. They taught it at dawn prayers, at family meals, with the rod of correction wrapped in deep love and concern. "Spare the rod and spoil the child." This is not just a saying—it’s a divine imperative as well as principle. A generation not corrected will surely correct itself in the street, behind bars, or on a viral video for the world to scorn. Dear parent, wake up. You are not just raising a child. You are shaping a future husband, a future wife, a future leader. Don’t leave that to chance. The enemy is not sleeping—why should you? We must return to God. We must return to prayer. We must return to values, a return to character moulding. It takes time, it needs time. It is cumbersome, it is not an easy job as many modern day parents think. It is painstaking. May God have mercy on this generation. May He open our eyes before it is too late. *Let this video not just make us shake our heads. Let it shake us back to responsibility.* Rev. Fr. Francis UNEGBU (PhD) Noble Mentor

FOUR ZONES TO LEAVE IN THIS 2025 Will you shock and surprise yourself by leaving these four zones? 1. COMFORT ZONE. You must take calculated risks if you want to achieve any meaningful goals. Stop folding hands and wasting time. Go out and get busy 2. BLAME ZONE. Blaming the government, your parents, ancestors, friends and other family members for not helping you is a waste of time. Work hard and take full responsibility of your failures and non achievements. 3. PITY ZONE. Stop being dramatic by using emotional tactics to fence off your inability to succeed. OK, you are unemployed for 5 years after graduation and you think the whole world is unfair to you? There is no fair world. Create and innovate with your skills and vow never to depend on anyone again. Employ yourself 4. HOSTAGE ZONE. Never allow others to treat you as a doormat in your relationships. Stop the hostage situation whereby you are forced to be unloved in return when you are sacrificing so much but recieving nothing. Draw the lines for a reciprocal rewarding relationship or quit. Make this month your month of self regulation, self realization and self discovery. STAY BLESSED 🙏❤️

Man’s responsibility is to praise and obey God in all things 🙏 Are you doing part ?

The older I get, the more I realize that clinginess in a relationship isn’t cute. It’s suffocating. Like, relax. We don’t have to be texting all day, every day. We don’t have to be together 24/7. A healthy relationship doesn’t mean losing yourself to another person. It means growing together while still having your own life. Go out with your friends. Find a hobby. Chase your goals. Do something that doesn’t involve me. The biggest mistake people make in relationships is thinking their partner is supposed to be their entire source of happiness. No, that’s your responsibility. Happiness is an inside job. No relationship can thrive when one or both partners are emotionally dependent on the other for their sense of fulfillment. I love affection. I love deep connections. But I also love my peace, my independence, and my own space to breathe and recharge. And I refuse to feel guilty for that. We should complement each other, not complete each other because we should already be whole.

Never Marry a Woman Who Thinks Duty Is Oppression Let’s flip the script. Modern women don’t mind love. They mind responsibility. They say they want a husband… But act allergic to the weight that comes with being a wife. Let’s break it down: --- 1. She Wants Rights—But Hates Roles She says she wants marriage. But only if she can rewrite the terms. No submission. No service. No sacrifice. Just: – Her career – Her comfort – Her convenience She wants you to pay the bills, protect the house, lead the vision… But call her “wife”? Suddenly she’s not your partner—she’s a prisoner. --- 2. Duty Is a Trigger Word to the Modern Woman Say: “A wife should cook.” She’ll say: “What is this, 1950?” Say: “A wife should support her husband’s mission.” She’ll say: “I’m not losing myself for any man.” Say: “Marriage is about sacrifice.” She’ll say: “That sounds abusive.” Everything that once built homes… Now gets labeled toxic. --- 3. Her Feminism Ends Where Her Comfort Begins She quotes bell hooks on Instagram. Reads self-help books about boundaries. Talks about partnership and purpose… But ask her to: – Wake up early for the kids – Submit to a decision she disagrees with – Stretch her ego to save the marriage She’ll say: “This isn’t what I signed up for.” Of course it isn’t. Because modern women don’t sign up for responsibility. They sign up for lifestyle perks. --- 4. You Can’t Build a Home With a Woman Who Thinks She’s Doing You a Favor She married you—but acts like she’s volunteering. She gave vows—but still moves like she’s single. She calls herself a wife… But never shows up in the trenches. And when you demand structure? You’re “controlling.” When you ask for peace? You’re “emotionally abusive.” Her entire identity is rooted in avoiding anything that feels like work. --- 5. Love Without Duty Is Just Performance She says she loves you. But won’t clean, won’t compromise, won’t listen. She says she’s loyal. But only when it’s easy. She thinks being present is enough. But presence without contribution is just furniture. You don’t need a woman who shows up. You need one who shows up with purpose. --- Final Word: If She Thinks Duty Is Oppression—You’ll Spend Your Life Apologizing for Leadership She’ll accuse your standards. Resent your vision. Sabotage your peace. And when the marriage fails? She’ll tell the world you “couldn’t handle a strong woman.” But truth is: You tried to build a kingdom… With someone who didn’t want to hold a brick. So here’s the rule: Never marry a woman who thinks duty is slavery. Because you’ll carry the whole mission alone— While she posts about burnout from watching movies.

Dear Parents One of the best gifts you can give to your children is a good home. Creating a positive environment involves supporting their physical, emotional, and psychological development. Nothing stresses a child more than a home where parents are in turmoil. Provide your child with a safe haven. Ensure the home is safe and free from hazards, addressing both physical safety (like childproofing) and emotional safety (offering a non-judgmental space for self-expression). Parent together as a couple to model teamwork. Children learn by observing, so demonstrate values you want them to adopt, such as honesty, kindness, and responsibility.

20 LIES WOMEN USE TO CONTROL MEN — AND WHY MOST MEN NEVER SEE THEM COMING INTRO MESSAGE: Most men don’t get destroyed by one big betrayal. They get chipped away little by little — by words disguised as care, guilt wrapped as love, and manipulation dressed up as “concern.” You start doubting your instincts. You stop enforcing your standards. You let things slide. And before you know it… You’re a shell of who you used to be. This isn’t about blaming women. It’s about seeing the game for what it is and refusing to be a pawn. Here’s the raw truth most men never hear: BRUTAL THREAD: 1️⃣ “You’re overthinking it.” A classic gaslight. It makes you doubt your gut so she can set the narrative. 2️⃣ “All my exes were toxic.” If everyone she dated was a demon, she’s either lying, the problem, or both. 3️⃣ “I’ve never felt this way before.” Translation: Let me hit you with intense love bombing so you won’t notice the games later. 4️⃣ “Why ruin this with labels?” She wants the benefits of loyalty without the burden of accountability. 5️⃣ “You’re too good for me.” Fake vulnerability that pressures you to work harder for her bare minimum. 6️⃣ “I need time to figure things out.” Stalling tactic. She’s buying time while keeping you hooked. 7️⃣ “I don’t want to ruin our friendship.” She wants boyfriend benefits without boyfriend responsibility. 8️⃣ “I didn’t mean it like that.” A get-out-of-jail-free card to avoid owning her words or actions. 9️⃣ “You’re insecure.” A way to shame you into silence when you question shady behavior. 🔟 “You should trust me.” Trust is earned, not demanded. Red flag when there’s nothing to back it up. 1️⃣1️⃣ “I’ve never done this before.” Faking innocence so you’ll excuse reckless behavior. 1️⃣2️⃣ “I just want communication.” Many don’t want truth — they want ammo. Watch what you give them. 1️⃣3️⃣ “I was just busy.” Once is life. Repeatedly is a pattern. Don’t ignore patterns. 1️⃣4️⃣ “I would never do that to you.” If you didn’t accuse her, why’s she defending herself? Unprompted means something’s up. 1️⃣5️⃣ “My phone died.” Phones die. Batteries recharge. Patterns don’t lie. 1️⃣6️⃣ “You’re so much better than my ex.” Flattery disguised as manipulation. Now you’re competing with a ghost. 1️⃣7️⃣ “My last relationship really hurt me.” Her pain isn’t your burden. You’re not her therapist. 1️⃣8️⃣ “I don’t care about money.” Wait ‘til the expectations creep in. Watch actions, not cheap words. 1️⃣9️⃣ “I’m fine.” Passive-aggressive silence to make you chase and fold first. 2️⃣0️⃣ “I’m not like other girls.” Every manipulator swears she’s different. Real quality never needs to announce itself. FINAL WARNING: Every man has two choices: Wake up and take control of his mind, standards, and peace. Or get quietly dismantled by subtle lies and fake sweetness disguised as love. This isn’t about bitterness. It’s about wisdom. A man who stands on his truth — unshaken, unmanipulated, and unapologetic — becomes untouchable in a world that profits off weak men. Guard your mind. Respect your instincts. Enforce your standards. Your peace is non-negotiable. ➥𝐼𝑓 𝑖𝑡'𝑠 ℎ𝑒𝑙𝑝𝑓𝑢𝑙 𝑝𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑐𝑡 & 𝑠ℎ𝑎𝑟𝑒⇅

Listen up, son. A woman who truly respects you will never make you beg for her body. She won’t play games with your manhood or use intimacy as a tool to control you. What you’re begging and looking foolish for, she may be giving to another man freely even when tired, because to the man she respects, desires, and fears losing, she gives. Effortlessly! But when she makes you beg, when she acts like being with you is a favor she’s doing you, that’s not love. That’s mockery. Cut the tie. Never allow a woman to disrespect you with sex. If she can’t offer it willingly, joyfully, and consistently, you don’t belong there because a woman who withholds her body is already gone in her heart. She either doesn’t desire you, doesn’t respect you, or is emotionally cheating on you already. When a woman rations intimacy like a reward, it means one thing, you’re no longer the man she wants. If she feels too special, too busy, or too angry to submit to you physically, you’re not really her man. You’re her option, her resource, her tool but never her leader. Don’t stay there! Go where you're respected. Go where you're desired. Go where your presence commands affection, not excuses. A woman in love gives. She opens up. She draws near. She wants to please the man she reveres. She sees it as her sacred responsibility to pleasure you. So stop justifying emotional manipulation in the name of “love.” Love doesn’t withhold. A woman never denies the man she truly respects and desires. If you can’t regularly get it when you want it, then something is wrong! Clear? ➥𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐤𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐨 𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐰𝐞𝐲𝐚 𝐰𝐚𝐌𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐢 𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐲𝐚𝐰𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐳𝐯𝐚𝐫𝐨😭🙏❤‍🩹

🛑🇧🇫- The 7th edition of National Tree Day announced for June 21, 2025!!! The 7th edition of the National Tree Day (NTD) will take place on June 21st, 2025, in Manga (capital of the Central South Region) under the high patronage of @CapitaineIb226. Its theme is, “Medicinal Plants: A Source of Community Health and Climate Resilience.” This edition, Minister Baro emphasized, will mark a key step in accelerating the battle to strengthen our country's vegetation cover. It comes, he noted, in a context marked by the return of internally displaced persons to their home communities, hence the imperative, he said, to integrate the issue of population resilience through the nutritional and health benefits of trees into the 2025 reforestation campaign. This 7th NTD is based on the concepts of “one province, one medicinal grove,”covering at least 2 hectares; “a school, a botanical garden,” for 100 educational institutions; “a green space, a landscaped area”; “the President's time to regreen Faso,” with the planting of 10 million seedlings; “a department/municipality with at least 2 km of row plantings”; a “Pedal for the Tree” cycling race. Yesterday, I listened to the coordinator of the event and he said that the goal is that, we want at least 5M Burkinabè to plant a tree on June 21st, between 8am-9am, in one hour. This time, they want everyone to make it his responsibility to care for the plant until it grows and not just planting trees that will be left out without proper maintenance. We want to change the face of the Sahel and it’s doable. So, within the one hour time, measures are put in place so that those who will plant their trees wherever they are in the four corners of Burkina Faso 🇧🇫 can report to the local authorities for their names to be recorded in the archives. Moreover, they are encouraged to share their plants on social media to encourage others. In the long run, we want to be able to recognize all those who will really take care of their trees. So, to all daughters and sons of Burkina Faso, each one of us must have their own tree(s) for a green and prosperous Burkina Faso!!!

*What to Have Before You Become a Wife📌 👇* Dear Single Lady, i know you're Preparing for a beautiful future, and marriage is one of those beautiful journey of life you desire. But before stepping into it, it's important you prepare— not just with wedding plans, but with the right mindset, habits, and heart. Wedding is not marriage, and marriage is not a day experience. So before you become a wife; Have 1. A Strong Relationship with Yourself Know who you are. Understand your values, your dreams, and your emotions. Self-love and self-respect lay the foundation for a healthy relationship with someone else. Don't expect a man to fully love and respect you when you don't love and respect yourself or you're still confused about yourself. Know what you can do and what you can't do. The flaws you can manage in a man, and the toxic habits you can't endure. 2. Emotional Maturity Can you handle disagreements without losing control? Can you forgive, communicate, and listen to your man with love? In as much as you're willing to be a submissive wife, understand that You won't always agree with your husband. There will be days of misunderstanding. There will days where you don't feel like talking to him. And there will be days when you'll look at him with a bombastic side eyes and feel like shouting ontop of your voice— at him. So start learning Conflict Resolution Skills. Learn Good Communication Skills too. Marriage requires honest, gentle, and respectful conversations. So you must Learn how to address a man. Start Practicing how to express yourself clearly and calmly, even when things get tough. Develop good manner of approach and speech. Learn how to resolve issues with calmness and respect instead of anger or silence. A peaceful home is not a home without problems, it's a home where problems are handled with wisdom. 3. Financial Wisdom You don't need to be rich, but it's wise you learn how to manage money, budget, save, and spend wisely. Marriage involves sharing responsibilities, and finances are a big part of that. You may not have money in your pocket now, but have a brain that can generate millions. Don't be empty physically and mentally. Imagine you meet a man who's ready to help you grow, what do you have that he can use to establish you❓ Don't wait for a man to come into your life and start building your from scratch. Have something— physically or mentally, or both. Don't sit down lazying around— believing you'll get any man or thing you want because you're beautiful. Your power doesn't lie in your beauty/body— it lies in your BRAIN. Feed your brain! • 4. A Clear Vision and Purpose for Life What kind of life do you want to build? What are your priorities— faith, career, children, purpose? Do you want to raise worldly children or Godly children? Do you want a marriage centered in Christ or Crisis? Do you want to be a career wife or a house wife? It's very important to know where you're headed in life so you can choose a man who shares and supports that vision. Don't be the type of lady who just want to want to birth kid, eat and sleep. If all you're concerned about as a lady is trending things and fashion, you may get frustrated when you enter marriage and your expectations are not been met. Luxuries are good, but have a vision and a purpose that can birth impacts. Impacts generates money, and money brings comfort. 5. Sound Marital Knowledge You want to get married without knowing anything about marriage? In as much as there will be some shocking discoveries you'll experience inside marriage, you still have to equip yourself well to some extent. You don't prepare for battle in the battlefield, you prepare ahead of it. You want marriage. You want to answer a 'wife' . You want to be a mother. But you haven't read upto 5 positive books that teaches about healthy marriage, becoming a wife of value, and a fulfilled mother. You don't even study God's standard for marriage— your bible. All you do is to go on dates, then come back home and watch movies. Keep playing 🙄 Even when you prepare yourself, the practical aspect of marriage will still give you some shocks. Now imagine what will happen if you don't equip yourself at all ? Show me a man who is going for war without arming himself, and I'll show you a man who has made up his mind to be k!!led even before he gets to the warfront. Marriage is not a play. Get the right Knowledge as much as you can. 6. Healing from Past Wounds Unresolved pain from your past relationships or childhood can cause problems later in your marriage. Please Take time to heal, forgive, and let go of your past relationship hurts before planning of getting married. Don't carry what your Ex did to you into marriage and start pun!shing your husband with it. You may de$tɍoy your marriage. Find peace first. A peaceful heart makes room for love to grow. 7. The Right Community Surround yourself with wise women— married, single, and older— who can guide you, pray with you, and give sound advice. You'll need them before and after marriage. Stay away from feminist if you truly want to enjoy your marriage. Anyone who advises you to equal yourself to your man doesn't mean well for you. Avoid them. 8. A Lifestyle of Responsibility Can you take care of your home, your health, your work, and your spiritual life without being pushed? Marriage doesn't magically make people responsible, you carry your habits into it and it amplifies them. Start building them now— the right habits. Start learning how to cook, keep the home neat, take care of kids. 9. Hobbies and Passions In preparing to become a wife, You have to learn to trust God's timing. But while you wait, grow. Don't lose yourself because you're waiting for marriage. Explore your talents, pursue passions, build a meaningful life outside of your relationship. Work on yourself, build your dreams, and enjoy your season. When you're a well-rounded woman, you'll bring joy, depth, and beauty into your home. 10. A Prayer Life Marriage will challenge your emotions, your faith, your patience, and your strength— and that's why you must start now to build your relationship with God. A praying woman builds her home in wisdom. So Start now! Make prayer your anchor, not your backup plan. A kneeling woman is a winning woman! Dear unmarried lady, Marriage won't fix your life, it will add to it. So build a life you love— then share it with a man who truly values it. Building yourself means you don't expect your man to complete you— you're already whole. So as a single lady, you must understand that becoming a wife is not just about finding the right man, it's about becoming the right woman. A wife is not just a title, it's a calling, and preparation is key. Don't just sit and be waiting to be chosen— Prepare yourself too to choose wisely, to love deeply, and to thrive in your marriage, not just survive in it. Marriage is meant to be ENJOYED ✅, not to be ENDURED ❌. You are worth the wait. PEACE!🕊️

Carter Efe: "You buy things for Jarvis but complain about sending your mum money. You've not even sent her up to 10M. Sandra isn't telling you the truth. I'm 23 and I hustle for my mum, my wife, and my child. I'm just the third born in my family, and I do my best to make sure my family members are at least, comfortable and I have never come out to complain about it because I see it as a responsibility. Peller: "You're just saying all this things because you want to trend, you know that once bloggers see my face on your livestream they'll carry it. You want to use me and trend. When you were my age how many people were you sending money?" This conversation between Peller and Carterefe has stirred mixed reactions online, As many believe Carter Efe may be trying to give Peller an advice that will help him in future, but it appears Peller doesn't get it, because he's "blinded by love".
