Eternal God, we put our faces on the ground before you today as we beg you to forgive our sins, even though, we black people, haven\u2019t sinned.

Moreover, these same white people ordered him to be crucified! The traitor was called Judas Iscariot. You can check this out, we don\u2019t have names like Iscariot here in Nigeria, we are called: Ikenna, Emem, Yakubu, Achebe, Odige, Ada, Sade, Sola, Halima, Idara, Chidi, Hassana, Nana, Taiwo, Nnamdi, Shehu, Osaro, Funke, Chidera, Danjuma, Doyinsola, Aloaye, etc&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We have no clue where is the Golgotha (that\u2019s the place where they crucified your beloved son), we just know how to go from Lagos to Kaduna to Abuja to Ibadan to Enugu to Maidugiri and come back. We\u2019ve never been to any of the holy cities in the Bible, therefore we can\u2019t possibly be implicated in the crucifixion of our Lord. If you don\u2019t believe us, please watch the movie \u201cThe Passion of the Christ\u201d, and you will see for yourself that no black person, let alone an African or a Nigerian took part to that sad event.<\/p>\n<p>This is why we beg you , O Lord Almighty, please make black people rich at long last and let white people work for them for a change!<\/p>\n<p>Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/d65bget.media_17-150x90.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Originally posted here:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> May the Almighty bless you all!
