There's a difference

Saul if tarsus didn't know the truth, but when the truth dawned on him by help of the holy spirit he was changed

This ones know the truth but they are resisting it, they are doing their masters ( devil) job

those people crying are all demonic possesed, they are angry because their demonic brother has been cast out and replaced with the statue of Christ


These same people will see nothing wrong with the Christ the Redeemer statue in brazil undecided


These same people will worship the same white man science and look down on their traditional science undecided

Demonic hypocrite undecided undecided

Height of Irresponsibility. Brainwashed people in government.

Educated illiterates with inferiority complex.

I SWEAR, THAT GOVERNOR WILL NOT DIE A GOOD DEATH.

HE IS THE MOST WORTHLESS AND DISGRACEFUL PERSON IN THIS EARTH.

THIS IS SO OUTRAGEOUS.

Stupidity, destroying your own heritage for some unknown Roman pervert. Did any of them actually saw Jesus to know what he looks like?🤦🚶🚶

Did you Just call Jesus the savior of the whole world and the only way to heaven pervert? "Every idle/foolish word that men speak shall thou give of it on the day of judgment for by thy word thou shall be justified and by thy word thou shall be condemn" Mathew 12: 36- 37. You better repent before it's too late for you

They took your ancestral pride away . Does the Lord Jesus know you ... People always forming as if they're more religious than the Pope.

Salvation is personal. I can't judge pope or spiritual leaders, some of them might not make heaven.

History is made to be protected and not destroyed, I am not against the statue of Jesus Christ but does he live the the tenets of his(Jesus) preaching?

Ironically, the first transatlantic Slave ship to transport kidnapped slaves to the New world was named ' The Good Ship Jesus ' .

The tragedy of that historic voyage still haunts the Negro race till this day. For, ever since that voyage,the Evil ship Jesus has continued kidnap and enslave the minds of the Negro race.

The reason why Christian ideology is so terrible,even Jesus nor any of the prophets including the entire bible never condemned slavery,not even a single sentence against it.

What a shameful act by people who do not make good use of their brains. Uninformed fellows. The Israeli flag says it all. They have put up the European-looking white Jesus. Who told you that was how he looked? An accurate depiction of Jesus could have been put up, with the monoliths still there.

Funny the Jews which the flag represents would laugh at their stupidity and their Jesus.

The Cross River Government, led by Governor Bassey Otu, has demolished a historic monolith structure.

Reports indicate that it has been replaced with a statue of Jesus Christ as a shepherd leading his flocks. Additionally, the flag of Israel has been hung on the staff of the statue.

The monolith, known as the Ikom monoliths, is part of a series of volcanic-stone monoliths from the area of Ikom. The Ejagham people are believed to have engraved the monoliths around 200 CE.

The monolith stands between 0.3 and 1.8 metres (1 and 6 feet) high and is laid out in some 30 circles located around Alok in the Ikom area of Cross River State.

This change has sparked mixed reactions on social media.

Okay thanks for the enlightenment, I suspect so too , but I am sadden that we are quick to replace our ancestral heritage with people who took us as slaves own ...and technically still enslaving us ...

Honestly there is still no justification or defence for deliberately and consciously playing second fiddle. No reason whatsoever justifies removing our ancestral traits for those of the men who came with cunning and treachery to kill, main and take our forebears away in chains. Same people that stole our carvings and artifacts and use them in making money at various galleries from visitors to their homelands yet back here we see those works of art as evil. I am ashamed of my own people
