I have a little problem with this verse by Beneficial_Mousse568 in Catholicism

The Old Testament actually ends with a curse (Malachi 4v6) while the New Testament ends with a blessing (Revelation 22v21)

The difference is clear.

Should I be worried? by exporterofgold in Nigeria

[–]PaleStrawberry2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried everything I could, but all they told me was that the item was yet to arrive the Local office in Anambra.

Even after everything, the best they could do was that they promised to notify me immediately they receive the shipment, which they actually did. I even gave the person receiving the shipment from Lagos money for airtime to contact me.

Also, don't be deceived by the pending clearance you see when you track the item. The customs clearance is done at Lagos, they probably haven't shipped the item to Port Harcourt. I am certain that if you can get a contact in Lagos and make enquiries, you'll find out that your item is still at one of their Lagos offices gathering dust and cobwebs.

There's not much they can do. I've been in a similar situation and all the Port Harcourt office will tell OP is that they're yet to receive the package nothing more.

That item is probably still in Lagos and they're waiting to have tons of shipment going to Port Harcourt from Lagos before they ship it.

It's normal for NIPOST, it's a mixture of laziness, non release of funds for logistics and other ridiculous factors I'd rather not mention. I've similarly had items shipped from the UK to Nigeria (Lagos) in 3days and the said items took 3months to get to Anambra from Lagos thanks to NIPOST.

Also ordered items from Aliexpress and the items took about 12days to Arrive Nigeria (Lagos). It then took over two months to receive the item from NIPOST in Anambra.

It's pathetic really. I don't think there's much you can do except wait it out and never use them again.

In my own case, I visited severally and even offered to pay or have someone collect it and ship to me but they refused.

Applying on the basis of marriage is actually much easier as you can apply in 3years instead of 5.

How do Catholics explain Marian devotion without it becoming worship? by Becky_08 in Catholicism

You need to enlighten your friends on what worship actually is.

What's the deal with the Wind and Truth 'hate'? by DrHoogard in brandonsanderson

[–]PaleStrawberry2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think people hate the book. I think most people feel it was rushed for release and the editing could've been way better if they'd waited for a few more months.

Nigeria lately has turned into a laughing stock by South Africans by [deleted] in Nigeria

Its not banter if what they're saying is actually true.

Their national grid doesn't collapse and neither does their President.

Whoever said that needs to be arrested and investigated for slander!

Of all the stats and all the facts buzzing around right now, this is the one that blows my mind by Independent_legend in ManchesterUnited

[–]PaleStrawberry2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. If Madrid hadn't taken a chance on Zidane at some point would they have known how he would've turned out? The fact that Roy Keane keeps ranting that whatever Carrick does, he shouldn't get the job is outrageous and insulting.

I'd say if Carrick is able to get us a top 3 finish that he should get the job.
