*TOPIC: DRINK WATER FROM YOUR OWN WELL.*(Series 6)

*Scripture Reading:* 1 Corinthians 15:33-34

*"Do not be deceived: “Bad company corrupts good morals.” Be sober-minded [be sensible, wake up from your spiritual stupor] as you ought, and stop sinning; for some [of you] have no knowledge of God [you are disgracefully ignorant of Him, and ignore His truths]. I say this to your shame."*(AMP)

Continuation from the causes of adultery and fornication I started yesterday:

*3) Bad company:* Base on the above scripture, I believe it ok to cut anything toxic in your life, including people. Cut out the bad company. Cut those who will cause you to stumble, fall into sin or affect your fate. 1 Corinthians 5:11 declared ; *"But actually, I have written to you not to associate with any so-called [Christian] brother if he is sexually immoral or greedy, or is an idolater [devoted to anything that takes the place of God], or is a reviler [who insults or slanders or otherwise verbally abuses others], or is a drunkard or a swindler—you must not so much as eat with such a person."*(AMP)

I have come to realize that the company you keep, will in one way or another have influence in your life. Either you like it or not, there are some situation in your life that you won't be able to control if you're under a bad influence. *Imagine a child of God that got admitted into a university and his or her room mate happened to be a cultist, lesbian, drug addict, prostitution. It takes divine intervention from above and higher Grace not to be impacted by them.*

Today, ask the victim, they will tell you, their friends lure them into fornication and adultery for reasons that are not genuine. Cut every relationship that is not godly today.

*4) A generational curse:* Generational curse is a repeating pattern of misfortune in a family.
*“Generational curse” is a common term for any kind of misfortune or tragedy that’s present in multiple generations of a family, such as illnesses, certain negative behaviors, or recurring outside events.* The term is popular in many Christian circles, and some Christians point to Exodus 20:5 as evidence for these curses. *"You shall not worship them nor serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous (impassioned) God [demanding what is rightfully and uniquely mine], visiting (avenging) the iniquity (sin, guilt) of the fathers on the children [that is, calling the children to account for the sins of their fathers], to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me."*(AMP)

Generational curses are misfortunes that tend to happen over and over again, from one generation to the next. Some Christians believe they’re caused by sin or are punishments from God. Others see them as traumas that persist from a parent to their child, or a series of consequences for an action, rather than a literal curse. *For example, a lady that was raped can lay a course on the fellow even to the third generation and unless the fellow is powerfully delivered, he can live a miserable life and pass it to the next generation.* To be continue tomorrow morning by God's Grace. Good morning and do have a great day, peace.

*Prayer point:* I boldly separate myself from every forms of entanglement that I have lure myself into that's making my life miserable in Jesus Christ name. Amen!

Aliko Dangote Tops the List of World’s Richest Black People

Here is What We Can Learn

A newly released global ranking of the world’s wealthiest Black individuals has the world talking and sitting confidently at number one is Nigeria’s own business titan, Aliko Dangote.

The Journey Begins...
In 1977, at just 21, Dangote borrowed ₦500,000 (about $3,000 at the time) from his uncle to begin trading in rice, sugar, and cement. Rather than spending his early profits, he reinvested them over and over again. With time, he shifted from importation to local production, laying the groundwork for Dangote Cement, now one of Africa’s industrial giants.

Despite operating in one of the world’s most volatile business environments, Dangote weathered every storm:
Economic Instability: From inflation to power shortages, he adapted and persisted.

Global Competition: He built businesses that could go toe-to-toe with international brands.

Bold Risks:
He invested over $20 billion into Africa’s largest refinery, betting big on local capacity.

5 Business Lessons from Dangote’s Rise:
1. Start Small, Dream Big
He didn’t wait for millions to start. He began with trade and scaled strategically.
Lesson: Use what you have, but aim far beyond your starting point.

2. Reinvest Before You Reward Yourself
Instead of splurging, Dangote poured profits back into the business.
Lesson: Grow your assets before your lifestyle.

3. Solve Local Problems
He noticed Nigeria was importing what it could easily produce and changed that.
Lesson: Find the gap in your market and fill it.

4. Stay Consistent Through Chaos
Whether it was currency crashes or market shocks, he never lost focus.
Lesson: Real resilience is measured in tough times.

5. Build Beyond Yourself
His ventures fuel local economies in energy, agriculture, and industry.
Lesson: Profit is good, but legacy is better.

“Don’t kill your dreams with small thinking. Start humbly but never let your vision shrink.”
– Dr. James Makamba

NNPC Ltd Donates 35 CNG Buses to Presidential Initiative on CNG
...Restates Commitment to Cleaner, Sustainable Fuel Alternative

The NNPC Ltd. has handed over thirty-five (35) hybrid Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered buses to the Presidential Initiative on Compressed Natural Gas (Pi-CNG).

During a brief ceremony held at the NNPC Towers on Monday, the Group CEO, NNPC Ltd., Engr. Bashir Bayo Ojulari reiterated the Company’s commitment to support the Federal Government’s gas aspirations.

The GCEO, who stated that the move was in line with NNPC Ltd.’s efforts to drive the adoption of CNG as a cleaner, cheaper and sustainable fuel alternative, added that the Company has recorded significant progress on gas supply, infrastructure, distribution and retail outlets.

“I am proud that NNPC Ltd is playing a pivotal role in driving the Federal Government’s gas agenda towards energy transition,” the GCEO stated.

Earlier in his address, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Gas), Rt. Hon. Ekperikpe Ekpo said the CNG buses represent not just vehicles but serve as instruments of economic relief, social equity, and environmental responsibility.

“They signal a future where the ordinary Nigerian can commute safely, affordably, and efficiently,” he added.

The Minister described the initiative as a direct reflection of President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, a bold step to reduce the cost of transportation, lessen dependence on petrol, and ensure the utilisation of the Nation’s abundant natural gas resources for the benefit of the people.

Earlier in his remarks, the Executive Vice President, Downstream, NNPC Ltd., Mr. Mumuni Dagazau said the adoption of CNG as a fuel alternative has significant economic benefits for the Nation by reducing reliance on PMS and AGO as automotive fuels which also leads to substantial cost savings and supports the growth of local gas industry.

Also in his remarks, the Executive Vice President, Gas, Power & New Energy, Mr. Olalekan Ogunleye, said that as the CNG commercialisation drive continues to gather momentum, NNPC Ltd. will be there to lead the way.

In her remarks, the Managing Director of NNPC Foundation, Mrs. Emmanuella Arukwe, said through the initiative, NNPC Ltd. was advancing and shaping a new energy future that will purposefully serve people, communities, and the planet.

The Programme Coordinator/CEO, Presidential CNG Initiative, Mr. Michael Oluwagbemi, commended NNPC Ltd. for supporting the Initiative, stressing that the Company has been a reliable partner for the Initiative since its commencement.

IBM Sacked 8,000 Employees To Replace Them With AI -

IBM laid off 8,000 employees to replace them with AI—what they didn’t expect was having to rehire as many due to AI

In 2023, IBM made headlines with the announcement of nearly 8,000 layoffs, primarily from support roles such as Human Resources. The goal? To replace these workers with artificial intelligence (AI), automating repetitive tasks and increasing efficiency. However, just months later, the company found itself doing something it hadn’t anticipated: rehiring many of those workers.

IBM’s AI Experimentation: The Plan to Cut Costs

IBM’s announcement to reduce its workforce was bold. As a longtime technology pioneer, the company believed that up to 30% of repetitive tasks in HR and other support functions could be automated with AI. The aim was clear: boost productivity and reduce costs. This move came amid a wider trend in the tech industry, with companies like Google and Spotify also trimming staff, often citing AI and automation as key drivers of these cuts.

THE KILLERS OF KADUNA STATE CITIZENS IN MANGU LG OF PLATEAU STATE MUST BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE

We received with shock and deep sorrow news of the killing of 12 Kaduna State citizens in the troubled Mangun District of Mangu Local Government, Plateau State. 11 others sustained various degrees of injuries. The innocent travellers met their deaths while traveling to Quan Pan Local Government of Plateau State for a wedding ceremony.

We condemn in the strongest terms these acts of savagery. The criminals must be fished out and dealt with accordingly. We call on security agencies to leave no stone unturned until these criminal elements are hunted down and brought to justice. We must put a stop to the nefarious activities of non-state actors. There is no justification for anybody to attack any citizen of Nigeria in any part of the country. This madness must stop. Enough is enough.

I also call on the Plateau State Governor, His Excellency, Barrister Caleb Mutfwang to use this unfortunate incident to make a bold statement. He must take full charge of the situation and direct the operations of the security agencies until the murderers are brought to justice. I will personally follow up on the progress made in the investigations and field operations in search of the criminals. We must send a clear signal that impunity will no longer be tolerated.

Let me use this opportunity to call on the citizens of Kaduna State to remain calm. All hands are on deck to ensure that our murdered citizens get justice. We have made remarkable progress in peace building and conflict transformation in Kaduna State. The Kaduna Peace Model is a pointer to the fact that with political will, commitment and sincerity of purpose, a toxic environment can be turned to an "oasis of peace". The situation in Plateau State is not irredeemable. The bloodshed must stop.

Our deepest condolences to the families of our citizens who lost their precious lives in Mangu Local Government. I am in touch with the families of the victims. We shall do all in our power to lessen their pains. We shall also ensure that the injured victims receive adequate medical attention. May the gentle souls of our departed citizens rest in perfect peace.

Senator Uba Sani, CON
Governor, Kaduna State.
