Achebe wrote in 2004: 'I have watched particularly the chaos in ...Anambra where a small clique of renegades ...seems determined to turn my homeland into a bankrupt & lawless fiefdom'.

A man who was allegedly behind this chaos is the PDP Senatorial Candidate in Anambra!

Thread!
It was serious in 2004.

With firearms & explosives, the govt house & other govt buildings in Anambra were attacked.

There were violent clashes that resulted in the DEATH of about 24 people.

Today, Chris Uba, a man allegedly behind those is an Anambra PDP Senatorial Candidate!
It is painful that the OBJ govt did nothing in the face of the 2004 Anambra chaos that killed 24 persons.

The pain is doubled when a man, Chris Uba, that @hrw reports is allegedly behind the death is vying for a senate seat for the PDP in Anambra.

Where is right to life in 🇳🇬?

If Buhari succeds in caging freedom of expression, he can then violate even out right to life bc there will be no voice to challenge him.

Buhari's dictatorship is now fully activated.

Deji was arrested by one of Nigeria's dehumanizing institutions, the police.

He was arrested for the kind of thing that you would ordinarily say or write on the social media for good governance.

We are in a dictatorship.

I was rushing a person to a medical facility at 4am: the Liverpool Rd. at Apapa, Lagos, was BLOCKED by tankers.

Thank God he survived.

He could have died in the blockage.

Emergency services are almost non-functional.

And with your car you can't even attend to an emergency.
I came face to face with the gradual evolution of our society as a failed state.

I have been in Lagos for some days now.

At Apapa, emergency response IS IMPOSSIBLE because someone somewhere is making millions daily from tankers who block major roads.
The Apapa crisis in Lagos makes me understand why 🇳🇬 is rated with Somali, Afghanistan, Syria etc as one of the dangerous places to live in.

Nigerians are living 'dangerously'.

U stand a better chance of living longer & in better health in many African countries than in 🇳🇬.

#TURN - Washington's Spies. If you haven't seen the series, you can't appreciate the Culper Ring and how much #QAnon parallels it. Season 2, episode 10, 40:00 mark; nearly exact language used in early Q drops. Washington speaks of General Lee's treason and how he'll be shamed.
Message from "355", no security without secrecy.
Benjamin Tallmadge says there's a cabal forming against the freedom movement in the United States while pointing out a traitor in the colonial army to General George Washington.

Turn on @CNN now & watch @lurie_john & Anthony Bourdain in the last few minutes of the last new episode of #PartsUnknown & then keep watching & see me with Tony in the 1st episode in the final season. Me & Tony in Kenya. Still can't believe it.
The last few minutes of the final new #PartsUnknown are fucking glorious. Absolutely a masterpiece of editing and style.
And now I'm sucked in to #PartsUnknown. I'm supposed to be working on #UnitedShades, but this experience was so amazing & ultimately sad that I can't turn away. I learned so much & can't stop talking about it to the #UnitedShades crew. But Tony & @ZPZProduction were incredible.

It was 1959 when I lost my second baby tooth. I was 5-ish going on 6. The shiny dime that appeared under my pillow after the first tooth went missing inspired faith in the awesome power of the Tooth Fairy greater than god or even Santa. 1/
Something had been bothering me since I was even younger. People kept dressing me as a boy, calling me a boy name, trying to make me a boy. I KNEW I wasn't a boy. But I was scared. I looked like a boy, so I could imagine why everyone thought I was one. 2/
I tried to tell my mom and Dad about it, but they told me I was a boy and that was that. I thought, "maybe the Tooth Fairy knows I'm a girl, and will help". So, after I showed Mom the tooth, I told her I'd leave it under the pillow with a note for the Tooth Fairy. 3/

Seems like today might be a good day to go over the basics as to what the New Testament says about homosexuality. It speaks to it clearly and unequivocally. From there we can move on to deal with related issues.
First, the New Testament speaks plainly to homosexuality. It describes it in remarkably frank detail.

Second, the notion that there are LGBT Christians is nonsense. There are Christians who have a history of LGBT orientation and behavior. There are Christians who struggle with SSA just as there Christians who were thieves and idolaters, who continue to struggle with those sins.

1) This is my #Qanon proofs thread—a series of posts by Q with related news articles and Twitter posts.

This thread will allow you to compare selected posts by Q to see if his (or her) claims are true.
2) #Qanon posts can be found here: qanon.pub
3) I've done my best to research #Qanon posts, relevant articles and twitter posts for accuracy. In preparing this thread, I discarded posts that others claimed as proofs because, under close inspection, the claims made by the posters were found to be incorrect.
