  • Your fellow Southerner is in a position to give you employment.

    You go to him for employment.

    You speak good English and write an excellent application letter to impress him.

    He tells you to bring your credentials.

    You bring your First Degree (First Class or second class).

    He tells you to go and do your Masters and even PhD for you to get the job.

    ON THE OTHER HAND

    A Northerner is in a position to give employment.

    An Hausa Man goes to him.

    He speaks Hausa to him.

    He tells him to bring his qualifications.

    He brings a third class degree or an SSCE with two Credits.

    He gets the job and saves money to further his education.

    He gets a Masters Degree while doing the job.

    Tomorrow, he is appointed as Executive Director.

    Ten years Later, he becomes Chairman or DG of the Agency.

    The Southerner sees this and hates on the Hausa Man.

    He accuses him of nepotism.

    But that's not nepotism.

    That's communalism.

    Southerners must understand the difference between nepotism and communalism.

    Helping your Brother to succeed is not nepotism.

    Southerners just need to learn how to love one another like Northerners do.

    Stop hiding opportunities from your people.

    Northerners do not hide opportunities from their people.

    Help a brother get a Job today, show opportunities.

    Don't talk Love, just show it. Don't tear the appllication of a brother who puts the trust of his life in your hand. He might be the one to save you when your trouble comes in that very office.

  • *OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL*

    *DATE: FRIDAY, 18TH JULY, 2025*

    *TOPIC: DON'T THINK FOR GOD*

    *MEMORY VERSE*
    Lo, these are parts of his ways: but how little a portion is heard of him? but the thunder of his power who can understand?
    *Job 26:14*

    *BIBLE TEXT*
    *Romans 11:33-36*
    [33]O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!

    [34]For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?

    [35]Or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again?

    [36]For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen.

    *MESSAGE* ‍👦👩‍👩‍👦‍👦👨‍👨‍👦
    Many times, believers ask God for things and then begin to think about how He will achieve them. In reality, however, our brains cannot understand how God will do the things He wishes to do. For instance, when a man says he has a PhD in Mathematics, it may sound like a big deal, but in truth, he can only be a specialist in an aspect of the subject. If he finds himself among fellow mathematicians, they will begin to ask him questions like, "What is your area of specialisation?" If he says, Applied Maths, they might further ask, What section of Applied Maths?" He might respond, "Fluid Dynamics. They can still ask, "What section of Fluid Dynamics?" The questioning can go on until it becomes evident that his PhD degree is just a little pin-head in Mathematics. It will take you over 1,000 years to know all there is to know about Mathematics. However, God knows all Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Geography, and all other subjects, including those that are yet to be discovered. You simply can't compare your wisdom and knowledge to His. Why, then, do believers try to calculate how He will choose to do something?

    When I became the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God in 1981, quite a few people in the church thought that my appointment was rigged. They thought that I used my position as a Mathematics lecturer to manipulate the General Superintendent because he was uneducated. I looked up to God to show the people that I did not manoeuvre my way into becoming the General Overseer and that He chose me Himself. God then began to do something extraordinary. We used to hold monthly seminars for some days, and on the first day of each seminar, a woman would deliver a baby boy in our maternity centre. After several months of this happening, it became clear that it was not coincidental, and those with spiritual understanding among us discerned that it was a sign from God confirming that He had chosen me Himself. l could never have imagined that God would use this as one of the ways to confirm that He had chosen me.
    Beloved, when you ask God for something, please don't ever think of how He will do it because it is beyond you. Just ask, obey whatever instructions He gives you, and leave the rest to Him.

    *KEY POINT*
    When you ask God for something, don't think about how He will do it; only trust and obey Him.

    *BIBLE IN A YEAR*
    *Isaiah 12-14*

    *HYMN 1 ALL HAIL THE POWER OF JESUS' NAME*
    🪉🪇🪈

    1️⃣ All hall the power of Jesus' Name!
    Let angels prostrate fall;
    Bring forth the royal diadem,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
    Bring forth the royal diadem,
    And crown Him Lord of all.

    2️⃣ Let highborn seraphs tune the lyre,
    And as they tune it, fall
    Before His face who tunes their choir,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
    Before His face who tunes their choir,
    And crown Him Lord of all.

    3️⃣ Crown Him, ye morning stars of light,
    Who fixed this floating ball;
    Now hail the strength of Israel's might,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
    Now hail the strength of Israel's might,
    And crown Him Lord of all.

    4️⃣ Crown Him, ye martyrs of your God,
    Who from His altar call;
    Extol the Stem of Jesse's Rod,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
    Extol the Stem of Jesse's Rod,
    And crown Him Lord of all.

    5️⃣ Ye seed of Israel's chosen race,
    Ye ransomed from the fall,
    Hail Him who saves you by His grace,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
    Hail Him who saves you by His grace,
    And crown Him Lord of all.

    6️⃣ Hail Him, ye heirs of David's line,
    Whom David Lord did call,
    The God incarnate, Man divine,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
    The God incarnate, Man divine,
    And crown Him Lord of all.

    7️⃣ Sinners, whose love can ne'er forget
    The wormwood and the gall,
    Go spread your trophies at His feet,
    And crown Him Lord of all.
    Go spread your trophies at His feet,
    And crown Him Lord of all.

    8️⃣ Let every tribe and every tongue
    Before Him prostrate fall
    And shout in universal song
    The crowned Lord of all. And shout in universal song
    The crowned Lord of all

  • You don't need to impress anyone with what you do. You just need to do what has to be done. If you ever find yourself working a job that people ignore or laugh at, keep your head up.

    If it's real work, and it's feeding you or helping someone, then it counts.

    You need to stop thinking some types of work are beneath you. If the job keeps you going, it's worth doing. You don't wait for comfort. You don't wait for applause. You show up and handle whatever's in front of you.

    That's how you stay useful.

    You don't get to look down on work just because it's quiet or doesn't get attention.
    Don't wait for a perfect role. If the job keeps you fed, you do it right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You're not too special for hard work.

  • The Harsh Truths About MEN Nobody Wants to Admit.

    1. Men are only loved based on what they provide.
    A man without money, status, or value is invisible to society—even to his own family.

    2. Men don’t get sympathy, only expectations.
    A struggling man is mocked, not helped. The world doesn’t care about his pain—only his productivity.

    3. If a man fails, he is on his own.
    No safety net, no pity. A failed man is seen as useless, even by those who once praised him.

    4. Men are only as good as their last achievement.
    Your past success means nothing if you can’t maintain it. The moment you fall, you become irrelevant.

    5. Nobody teaches men how to deal with emotions.
    Society says “Be a man,” but never explains how to handle pain, stress, or heartbreak.

    6. Men are judged by results, not effort.
    Nobody cares how hard you try—if you don’t succeed, you’re just making excuses.

    7. Men must build themselves from scratch.
    No handouts, no shortcuts. A man must create his own value or be ignored.

    8. Men’s problems are seen as complaints.
    If a man speaks about his struggles, he’s called weak. If he stays silent, he suffers alone.

    9. Men are replaceable.
    In relationships, jobs, and even families—if a man can’t provide, he’s discarded like an old tool.

    10. A man’s worth is always conditional.
    No matter how much he loves, gives, or sacrifices, his value is always tied to what he can do.

    This is the brutal reality. A man must level up, stay strong, and never expect handouts. Because in the end… Nobody is coming to save you.

  • Your fellow Southerner is in a position to give you employment.

    You go to him for employment.

    You speak good English and write an excellent application letter to impress him.

    He tells you to bring your credentials.

    You bring your First Degree (First Class or second class).

    He tells you to go and do your Masters and even PhD for you to get the job.

    ON THE OTHER HAND

    A Northerner is in a position to give employment.

    An Hausa Man goes to him.

    He speaks Hausa to him.

    He tells him to bring his qualifications.

    He brings a third class degree or an SSCE with two Credits.

    He gets the job and saves money to further his education.

    He gets a Masters Degree while doing the job.

    Tomorrow, he is appointed as Executive Director.

    Ten years Later, he becomes Chairman or DG of the Agency.

    The Southerner sees this and hates on the Hausa Man.

    He accuses him of nepotism.

    But that's not nepotism.

    That's communalism.

    Southerners must understand the difference between nepotism and communalism.

    Helping your Brother to succeed is not nepotism.

    Southerners just need to learn how to love one another like Northerners do.

    Stop hiding opportunities from your people.

    Northerners do not hide opportunities from their people.

    Help a brother get a Job today, show opportunities.

    Don't talk Love, just show it. Don't tear the appllication of a brother who puts the trust of his life in your hand. He might be the one to save you when your trouble comes in that very office.

  • UKPABI ASIKA THE GREAT!

    By Emeka Obasi

    No individual did more for the Igbo after the genocidal Civil War than Ajie Ukpabi Asika, a First Class Economist produced by the University of Ibadan, who was appointed Administrator of East Central State in 1967. Strangely, those who should praise him only remember that he did not support Biafra.

    Asika and his wife, Chinyere, returned from the United States with chains of University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) degrees and settled down to work at the University of Ibadan. By 1966, they had moved to Tanzania and later Zambia.

    It took another Economist, Dr. Adebayo Adedeji, to recommend Ajie to Gowon through Col. Olu Obasanjo. He was the only civilian among the twelve new governors. Had Gowon appointed a Federal officer to administer the East, perhaps everything Biafra would have been completely destroyed.

    Asika behaved like a statesman. He welcomed and rehabilitated all those that were on the Biafran side and put their ingenuity to good use. Those who fuelled inventions through Research And Production (RAP) got a new agency, Project Development Agency (PRODA) headed by one of the brains behind Ogbunigwe, Gordian Ezekwe.

    The ECS cabinet had an array of achievers, carefully selected. There was Ukwu I. Ukwu, with PhD, Cantab. Samuel Ikoku, Economist, politician and University lecturer, Charles Abangwu, former Deputy Speaker, Eastern Region House of Assembly, Magnus Adiele, another University teacher and Dan Ibekwe, lawyer, former Federal minister, also made it.

    Flora Nwapa, novelist and University administrator, joined Philip Nnaemeka Agu, a lawyer, Martin Elechi a former District Officer (DO), Dan Njemanze, another lawyer, Osita Okeke, Zackhaeus  Dibiaezue, and Anthony Ofo - Mogboh, to move the new state to greater heights. They were supported by Chu Okongwu, Vincent Aniago and Innocent Nwoga, among others.

    What many did not know was that before the war ended, Asika moved swiftly to secure Igbo investments across the nation. He was successful in the West, in Kano, in Ilorin but Port Harcourt gave him so much headache. Rivers State governor, Alfred Papapreye Diette - Spiff, hardened his heart and supported what became known as Abandoned Property.

    It was sad that Spiff who attended St. Joseph's College, Sasse Buea, Western Cameroon, did not consider men like Prof.Theodore Okeahialam and his brother, Heron, who also passed out from the same school, before him.

    Heron was the Engineer behind Radio Biafra, who made the world believe that the studio was in Enugu all through the war. Fact is, he moved the station round. At a time, signals came from a palm tree in Otulu, Ahiara, Mbaise. Prof. Okeahialam did not only head the Biafran Hospital and Rehabilitation Centre in Libreviile, Gabon, he pioneered inventions.

    Biafran doctors produced Kwashiorkor Mixture for malnourished children, a formula later adopted by the World Health Organisation. F. Udekwu and David Nwafor used fresh coconut as intravenous fluids to treat wounded soldiers. Nelly Obiayo separated Siamese twins. Humphrey Anyanwu did well with surgery.

    In 1974, Anyanwu and Nwafor had jobs at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH) Enugu. They performed two major heart surgeries with Egyptian turned Briton, Bagdi Yacoub.

    Asika did not like the unforgiving spirit of Spiff. The Amanyanabo of Bonny, William Dappa Pepple, was exiled, for following Gen. Emeka Ojukwu to one of the Peace Meetings in Addis Ababa, in 1968. The king lived in Enugu. Ojukwu was worried but relief came when Asika found a place for Pepple in Aba, nearer home. He died there in 1972. Today his son, Asimini Dappa People III, sits on the throne as Perekule XI, Amanyanabo of Bonny.

    Asika had the most efficient Civil Service in the country, that applied IBM computers through the Eastern Data Processing Centre, manned by Dr. Ofia Nwali and supervised by Ukwu I. Ukwu. Scholarships to Europe, America and other parts of Nigeria were awarded and handled perfectly. 

    In Sports, Asika was excellent. Enugu Rangers remain the first Nigerian team to become double champions. This was achieved in 1974. That foundation also makes the Flying Antelopes the only club to have won the Challenge Cup three times consecutively.

    East Central State Academicals lifted the Manuwa/ Adebajo Cup in 1971. East Central State Spartans grabbed soccer gold at the First National Sports Festival, Lagos 1973 and retained it in 1975. Rangers had won the first league, the Amachree Cup, although informally, in 1971.

    All the players and managers of these teams were Biafran combatants. Coach Dan Anyiam, was Brigade Major of the 60 Brigade that fought gallantly in Oguta. Skipper Godwin Achebe was at the School of Infantry. Godwin Ogbueze was a teenage commando, just like Dominic Nwobodo. Patrick Ekeji moved from the Air Force to Army Signals. Emma Okala and Christian Chukwu, fought as well. Nwabueze Nwankwo was tough in the Mid - West.

    Today's leaders would have distanced themselves from Biafrans who painted Asika in bad light. Ajie welcomed them with open arms and was the one who coined the phrase, No Victor , No Vanquished. He visited fellow governors, to be sure that harm did not befall returnee Ndigbo.

    I got chatting recently with multi talented Obi Asika, Ajie's son who has continued from where his father stopped. The Junior Asika is into music, soccer, administration, name it. He said : "No Victor, No Vanquished was actually a book written by Ajie. He also negotiated General Amnesty for Biafran soldiers and kept almost everyone out of prison. There is a road named after him in Kano, and another in Ilorin, for his work of rehabilitating the Igbo, securing their property and giving them a way back. I celebrate him every day."

    Some of the Biafran officers who were in detention beyond Asika's tenure, were set free in August 1975 by Murtala Mohammed. They included 1966 coup plotters, Humphrey Chukwuma, who remained in Biafran detention through out the war and Ganiyu Adeleke, who commanded the Biafran School of Infantry after he was injured in battle. Peter Adomokai, Aide de Camp to David Ejoor was an Instructor at the School of Infantry. There was also the soldier, Peter Odili. Both men were not in detention.
    Benneth Ochei was also set free alongside, Ojukwu's aide, Kanayo Esinulo, who was whisked away from the Lagos Airport, on his way to Frankfurt, by security operatives, on August 23, 1973.

    Prof. Ken Post who once lectured at the University of Ibadan told Esinulo that Asika "was one of the most brilliant students I ever taught in all my teaching career." Ajie founded the ECS Writers Workshop and loved Arts and Entertainment. At the First National Festival of Ars and Culture, his state emerged tops. Nkpokiti dancers were also spectacular, globally.

    Born in Barkin Ladi and moulded at St. Patrick's College, Calabar and Edo College, Benin, the Umuezearoli, Onitsha man explored the world and brought his experience home. Asika married Chinyere, whose dad was the super public servant, Nathan Ejiogu of Egbu, Owerri. Her sister, Kema Chikwe, became a Federal minister. South - East governors need to be schooled about what Ajie Anthony Ukpabi Asika( Dona Meche ) did for the Geo Political Zone.

    PLEASE SHARE TO OTHER PLATFORMS: For our SE Leaders attention and information. May history and posterity honor for the sake of our children.
