Why have we allowed greed to bring tears to people’s lives. Find something better to do and stop the killing. You have killed the person, but you will never get a kobo or the money, you rather end up in jail. Why are we allowing money to control of our lives

The moment that guy won that money, he has also been tagged with his death. If that guy had not won that money, he will still be alive today. At times when we pray for something good such as money, fame or power and God delays it, it may be because of incidence like this.
Most of human problems begins when we are ascending to the top ladder. We may have different thought that after becoming a millionaire, my problem is overwith. No! the genesis of your problem starts when people can point at you, that look, that is the man! he is so rich that he can by the whole village. Then what follows that is people will be going after your life. May his soul Rest In Peace .

A wise man once said ” guard yourself against your friends and God will protect you against your enemies” . Very true. Human nature is such that if you sit in company of ten people while counting money, at least four Would feel it is their right to have a share of that money whether or not it is yours. That is why I noted the wisdom in the lyrics of some country music I listen to. It advises a gambler among other things …”don’t count your money while sitting at the table, there is time enough to count it when the deed is done”. Sometimes when level changes it is wisdom to change with your level.
RIP
