During a cross over service into a new year, a Pastor prophesied that there is someone in the congregation who will become a landlord before the next Cross over service.  Everyone said Amen.馃檶 In that church was a teacher who also said Amen to the prayer. This teacher had a wife and a daughter. When he got home, he told his wife that he believed the prophecy was for him.  His wife laughed馃ぃ and then reminded him of his salary of N30,000 and the impossibility of buying even a truck full of sand talk more of owning a house.  This teacher held unto the prophecy nonetheless.  He went to get the cost of having a plot of land in his area of choice.

Most of them chose the picture showing a fertile woman.馃槼 Mind you, it's the same woman, the same height, the same colour but because it's her season of fertility she looks finer and more attractive.馃槉 Isn't it amazing how people see you do (perform, dance, play football, sing or even speak) ONE DAY what you have ALWAYS done and then say, 'Chai, this guy you are so good at this thing, where have you been all this while?'  Excuse me, we have been neighbours for 5 years now, how come you are asking me 'where have you been'?馃し馃徏‍♂️ You may think they are being sarcast

I also mentioned that 6 awards will be given that night. After the presentation of the 5th award, it was the turn of the ‘ Best Teenager Of The Year ’ Award.
