If Nigeria women stop going to church
80 percent of churches in Nigeria will fold
The Role of Nigerian Women in Sustaining Churches: A Critical Examination
In Nigeria’s religious landscape, churches play a central and influential role in shaping societal norms, values, and practices. However, beneath the surface of ornate cathedrals and bustling congregations lies a crucial demographic whose presence is often overlooked yet indispensable: Nigerian women.
It is no secret that women form the backbone of many churches across Nigeria, contributing not only their time and energy but also their financial resources and spiritual devotion. Indeed, the adage that “if Nigeria women stop going to church, 80 percent of churches in Nigeria will fold” holds a profound truth that merits closer examination.
At the heart of this statement lies the undeniable reality of women’s unparalleled commitment to religious practices and community engagement. From leading prayer groups and choir rehearsals to organizing charitable initiatives and outreach programs, Nigerian women are at the forefront of church activities, driving the spiritual and social fabric of their congregations.
One cannot ignore the significant financial contributions made by Nigerian women to sustain the operations and ministries of churches across the country. Whether through tithes, offerings, or donations, women play a vital role in ensuring the financial viability and sustainability of their churches, often sacrificing their own needs and aspirations in service to their faith community.
Moreover, Nigerian women serve as pillars of strength and support within their churches, offering solace, guidance, and encouragement to fellow believers in times of joy and sorrow. Their unwavering faith and resilience in the face of adversity inspire and uplift others, fostering a sense of unity and fellowship that is integral to the church experience.
However, it is crucial to acknowledge the complex dynamics at play within Nigeria’s religious landscape, where gender inequality and patriarchal structures continue to persist despite progress in some areas. While women may constitute the majority of churchgoers, their leadership opportunities and decision-making power within religious institutions remain limited, reflecting broader societal challenges related to gender equity and representation.
In light of these realities, it is incumbent upon churches and religious leaders to recognize and value the contributions of Nigerian women, not only as congregants but as vital stakeholders in the spiritual and organizational life of the church. By promoting gender-inclusive practices and fostering opportunities for women’s empowerment and leadership development, churches can harness the full potential of their female members to create more inclusive and equitable faith communities.
the assertion that “if Nigerian women stop going to church, 80 percent of churches in Nigeria will fold” serves as a poignant reminder of the indispensable role that women play in sustaining the vibrancy and vitality of religious institutions across the country. As we celebrate the contributions of Nigerian women to the church, let us also commit to advancing gender equality and justice within our faith communities, ensuring that all members are valued, respected, and empowered to fulfill their God-given potential.

I’ve made up my mind to expoe this old cargo today, Her full name is Kenza Emeline Jein. She’s a married businesswoman who deals in ladies’ fashion
She’s so un-gråté-ful. I’ve had an affair for about 4 years gone with this w0-man. She claimed her husband wasn’t satisfying her in bed, I was always at her service whenever she needed me. In turn, she rented an apartment for me, opened up a shoe business for me, also gave me pocket allowances per month.
Our relationship had been moving well until she got pregnant with the second child & gave birth to a baby girl about 6 months ago. Afterwards, she automatically changed & suddenly stopped seeing me & picking my calls, even went to the extent of blocking me. I only get to reach her when I use a different line. Immediately she realizes it’s me, she’ll cut the call after telling me she’s no longer interested in the relationship, then block the new line too.
I was shocked by this new development. I’ve lost the girl I loved so much & who loved me so much too, all because of this woman. Now she thinks she can just use & dump me like that after giving her two beautiful kids, like I’m some kind of rag. See, I’m not a kid, Mrs. Jein. If you think you can play me like a child, then you should think twice.
Even my business is going down, my house rent has expired, my landlord isn’t giving me any breathing space. I’ve asked this woman for just 2.5million as compensation so i can move on & fix my l!fe that she destroyed but she has given a deaf ear.
Mrs Jein, I’ve given you 2 beautiful girls & I cannot be here suffering while I’ve been wasting my time & energy servicing & giving an old cargo fresh blood with absolutely nothing of benefit nor gain. You very well know our affair cost me my sweet relationship. All bcoz of you i lost the woman that truly loves me. However, I do not need the kids either; you can keep them. I’m 24yrs old still young with fresh blood; I can always make other babies.
I only insist that you compensate me with 2.5 million for my time & energy wasted on you. If not. You leave me with no choice than get back at you by uploading your n””-ü,”ds on social media & also come for my babies & you’ll lose everything, which I’m very sure you wouldn’t want that. This is a promise Mrs Jein. You can’t use me & dump me like a rag; I’m not a kid madam! I’m giving just a week to see that money in my account so i can fix my life i do not want any trouble”

In 2003, Chief Chuba Okadigbo was allegedly gassed with poisonous tear gas in Kano State, Nigeria
Okadigbo also known as the Oyi of Oyi was Vice presidential aspirant of the All Nigeria People’s Party (ANPP) with Mohammad Buhari, as leader of the ticket.
Unlike other Igbo politicians who aligned themselves with their Igbo kinsmen, Okadigbo aligned himself with the North and had more respect for the Northern region and its people.
Okadigbo attended the rally which was held in Kano State Nigeria.
Apart from the Governor of Kano State, no other ANPP Governor was in attendance which was unusual.
Aware of Okadigbo’s respiratory health challenge (asthma), the then federal government under the reign of Chief Olusegun Obasanjo did not want the rally to proceed.
Security personnel mounted the gate to prevent entry, but this did not sit well with the Kano State Governor; Malam Ibrahim Shekarau, so he ordered the youths to bring down the gate allowing opposition figures to enter.
Police in order to instill calmness released tear gas which they allegedly poured on ANPP leaders in the rally.
According to Hajiya Naja’tu Mohammad report to Voice Of America (VOA), Okadigbo’s body was allegedly soaked with the offensive smelling liquid.
He lost control of his breathe after inhaling the substance and the other party men administered first aid on him in a bid to revive him.
He eventually gave up the ghost in his Asokoro home, Abuja a day or two after the tear gas event.
Many still believed that there is more to his dæth.

I slept with my younger sisters husband on their wedding eve and Ever since then I swore that I would take her husband away from her no matter the cost.
The whole thing began when I and Chris (my sisters husband) started chatting on Facebook, by then Chris and my sister haven’t met. I fell deeply for Chris and I always imagined him as the father of my kids, but through our chat Chris never confessed any love to me.
One day while I was bathing I received a text from Chris asking us to meet. I was curious to meet him for the first time in person, but as girls I had to force him to let me tag my sister along . Chris obliged but after so many persistence he gave in .
When I and my sister got to the location of the dinner date, Chris and my sister got along to the extent I began to feel left out throughout the dinner night. When we were done Chris exchanged contacts with my sister.
After that day I and Chris kept chatting but something changed. Chris would some times leave my message read but still won’t reply.
After few weeks of Chris change of behaviour I felt like he was no longer interested in me so I completely blocked him. Two days after I blocked him .
One day while I was laying on the parlour couch pressing my phone, my sister rushed to me screaming.
“He asked me to be his girlfriend, rachel he asked me to be his girlfriend ” she said repeatedly.
“WHO! who asked you to be his girlfriend?” I asked sitting up well.
“Chris, the guy I followed you to a dinner date with few weeks ago” she said rejoicing.
At that point I felt this grudge in my heart for my sister but I decided to let go concluding that Chris was never mine that’s why.
Soon my sister started going on dates and shopping with Chris. It even got to a point that Chris bought her a car to ease her to work.
On one special evening while I was in the parlour with a friend, I noticed my sister walking downstairs and spraying fragrance in the entire house.
I was curious so I asked her the reason she was spraying the house and of course it was because Chris was coming to visit.
After few hours Chris walked in and they hugged and k!ssed right in front of us. My friend was already offended but she waited for them to leave.
“Is that not the guy that you told me you both had a thing before ?”
“Yes he is the one I told you about, but nothing to worry; if it’s meant to be, it will be” I said and scoffed .
“But if you don’t work for it to be how will it be” my friend said to me and walked out.
I was sitting all alone in the parlour when my sister walked in with bright smiles on her face. As soon as she saw me she stretched her hand out and revealed the engagement ring. That was when I know that I had to take back what rightfully belongs to me by all means.
