“Not every woman has a beautiful face, no matter how you twist it, Oby Ezekwesili does not have a beautiful face” – Reno Omokri says Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has stated that while every woman has something that’s beautiful about her, not all have beautiful faces. Reno stated this while reacting to a Twitter user’s question about one of his nuggets. The writer had taken to Twitter to advise that a man doesn’t need a praying wife, but rather a woman who can pray, slay, and stay. He stated that a lady can be taught to pray, but beauty cannot be learned; it is either present or absent. The follower, however, disagreed with Reno, stating that both praying and slaying can be learned. In response, Reno explained that although every woman has something attractive about her, not all of them have beautiful faces. He added that the former Federal Minister of Solid Minerals, Oby Ezekwesili, is highly intelligent, but she does not have a beautiful face. “Dear @SaintNduka, You are perf

GOYA OIL IS ONLY A COOKING OIL NOT ANOINTED OIL,DON'T ALLOW FALSE PROPHETS DECEIVE YOU.(PHOTO).

Goya Oil is only a Cooking Oil not anointed oil, don't allow false prophets deceive you  — Rev. Fr. Kelvin Ugwu Goya oil has become so sacred to Nigerian Christians. If you are a Christian in Nigeria and you have not at least sipped the oil for healings or applied it on your body for protection against demons or used it for deliverance, then you must be among the very few exceptions. In Nigeria, Goya Extra Virgin Olive Oil is considered a Holy Anointing Oil that can drive away demons. In Spain where the founder Don Prudencio Unanue was from, and in America where he later founded the Goya company in 1936, Goya oil is simply a cooking oil or for Salad or for marinating. While people in the US, Puerto Rico, Spain, and even in the UK keep Goya oil in their kitchens, those in Nigeria and various parts of West Africa, keep theirs on their Altars, sick people's beds, and church handbags. You can't ask a pregnant woman to be drinking a complete bottle of Goya oil every day so that
