ZIMBABWE – A Bulawayo man is living in distress after his organ reportedly grew uncontrollably.

34-year-old Nigel Nyoni of Bulawayo’s uptown suburb, Burnside, is fighting a rare condition that he claims came as a result of gulping countless litres of traditional concoction that was meant to increase his sexual drive over three weeks.

The man said his manhood has been growing uncontrollably since the day he guzzled the concoction.

Nyoni claims that his ‘anaconda’ had grown by a ‘mammoth’ seven centimetres in less than a month after taking a concoction popularly known as imbiza or guchu.

“I used to have a normal penis but what is happening to me is getting me scared. When I first noticed that my organ was growing, I didn’t mind because I thought it was part of the process. However, I later realised that it was growing continuously,” said Nyoni.

He said on noticing that his organ was growing excessively, he took measurements after every two days.

“On taking measurements, I realised that my organ was growing. To tell the truth this is scaring me. I used to be an average guy but this has gone overboard,” he said.

Nyoni revealed that he has since approached a herbalist who prescribed the concoction but he was unable to help him.

“He told me that there was nothing he could do as the ‘guchu’ was not for enlargement but for increasing sexual drive. He even accused me of trying to trick him after I demanded my money back. I am afraid of getting out of the house because my organ is beginning to show in my trousers. I’m scared it might continue to ‘expand’ until it kills me,” said Nyoni.

“Very soon maybe it would be worse and no woman would want me near. What if I die without a family of my own? There is a woman that I am planning to marry this year and how will that be possible if I die or if this thing continues to grow,” he said.

The Truth Seekers
by Cara Hanson

If I ever hit my head and develop amnesia, I will not have to go a long time without knowing my name. In fact, thanks to my children, I am reminded of my name several hundred times on a daily basis. (“Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! MOM! Mommmmmmeeeeeeee!”) Repetition is the name of the game that children play, and it forces parents to learn very quickly the meaning of patience. Many adults have been pushed to the brink of insanity just by having to hear the “Barney Theme Song” one too many times. You can take a survey to verify this, but I believe that the number one repeated word of choice for youngsters is “Why?”

An average conversation with a three year old looks something like this:

Parent: Please come here now.
Child: Why?
Parent: Because I asked you to.
Child: Why?
Parent: Because I want you to come here.
Child: Why?
Parent: Because I asked you to.
Child: Why? Why? Why?
Parent: (Face down in soup) Aaaaaaaaghh!

For a while, I considered boycotting the letter “y” from the alphabet. However, I have recently learned that I should be encouraging the natural questioning of my children. Most young children are natural Truth Seekers. They do not initially accept an answer at face value; they need validation and confirmation. That is why they will not accept “because I said so”, as an answer. If they are not nurtured in this search for corroboration of truth, the desire becomes squelched in adulthood. Not only will they stop asking “why,” but they will also stop caring. It is the ultimate lesson in “How to Become Jaded.”

Our five year old, Grace, is not one to readily accept an answer. One day I made a comment about the sun going down, to which she responded, “The sun doesn’t really go down, does it Mommy?” For you sports fans, she was throwing a flag on the play. I had never taught astronomy to her, but she challenged the truth of my statement. This challenge resulted in a lengthy explanation about the solar system that I had planned for her middle school years. Rather than letting me off the hook, she was choosing to seek the truth.

Truth Seeking 101 should be a mandatory college course. Somewhere along the way, adults seem to lose a little bit of the basics, especially concerning religion. I know several people who believe that the truth is whatever you believe it to be in your heart. In other words, everyone has his or her own truth. (Which reminds me-Logic should also be a mandatory course). If everyone’s own opinion is the truth, then we might as well pack up our brains right now, because nothing will ever make sense! God makes it clear that there is one Truth, and that His desire is for us to pursue it:

1 Timothy 2:3 and 4
(3) This is good, and pleases God our Savior,
(4) who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.

Many people like to quote “The truth will set you free” (John 8:32), but they leave out the all-important preceding words spoken by Jesus. He said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” When you keep the context of the verses, Jesus Christ stated that the way in which truth will set you free is through the truth of what he taught. His teachings are conveniently located in our Bibles! The Apostle Paul told the Thessalonians to “stand firm and hold to the teachings we passed on to you” (2 Thess. 2:15), which now have been passed on to us through the church epistles.

When learning to become a Truth Seeker, daily time studying the Bible is a course requirement. The book of Acts explains why the Bereans were of more “noble character” than the Thessalonians:

Acts 17:11b
…for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.

Every time Paul taught the Word to the Bereans, they verified the truth themselves. They were not ashamed to ask, “Why?” or any other question. Examining the Scriptures in this manner has become a lost art. Sometimes people are afraid that the truth might challenge their lifelong traditions. It’s as if Jack Nicholson from A Few Good Men is yelling in their ear, “You can’t handle the truth!” Ironically, once we realize that the Word is truth, not only can we handle it, but it also liberates our hearts and brings us peace.

The Word of God is truth, but it will not leap off of the pages into our brains. We need to do the following:

2 Timothy 2:15
Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.

Before I started studying the Bible, I did not “handle” the truth at all; I fumbled it. Instead of being a “workman,” I simply allowed myself to be fed the traditions of men without question. If you constantly “feed” yourself with something that is empty, you will never be satisfied.

Now that I am teaching our children, I no longer have the luxury of accepting something blindly. Sometimes I’m engaging in a tennis match of logic when I serve them a truth of the Scripture-they lob it back to me with, “WHY?” Thankfully, this forces me to work diligently, for they hold me accountable for logical answers that will satisfy their appetite for God’s Word. How can I expect my own children to consume a diet of traditions, when they are hungry for the truth?

One advantage of the constant barrage of questions from our children is that it forces me to think. Sometimes I rush through a biblical record, but the kids will ask me to go back and paint a clearer picture. For example, our daughter Grace wanted to know if Jesus was wearing sandals when he walked on the water. I had never given it any thought, but she was concerned about whether or not his shoes got wet. Another time when I explained that Jesus will return in the clouds, she asked exactly how we would get out of the house to meet him. These are questions that most adults do not ponder, but she was probably already working on some sort of Emergency Evacuation Plan, and she needed details for the diagram.

These countless wonderful moments with our children have allowed me to reflect more on the Scriptures and challenge my brain to work overtime. No, baby Moses did not go floating down the river like a ride at a water park, and no, Noah’s ark was not a small house boat filled with stuffed animals. Thankfully, God has unlimited patience with man.

Ephesians 6:14 exhorts believers to stand “with the belt of truth buckled around your waist.” Notice that it does not use “suspenders,” which tend to slip off the shoulder, but a buckled belt. Whenever people eat too much, they like to loosen up their pants a little to get some breathing room. You rarely see someone wearing a belt at an all-you-can-eat buffet for just that reason. A belt is secure and difficult to remove! Just like children and their endless demand of WHY’s, we should be relentless in our pursuit of truth, and then fasten it securely with a belt to complete the full armor of God. It’s never too late to become a truth seeker!

HOW SHE SOUND LIKE RIHANNA SUH?

Rohan Marley

Rohan Marley is again living the life of a bachelor after breaking off his engagement to Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana.

The reggae royalty-former American football player-entrepreneur was previously in a relationship with R&B singer Lauryn Hill, with whom he had five children.

In a recent interview with the international Open Magazine, Marley stated that he still had unresolved feelings for Lauryn Hill.

“I feel sad that I loved her so much and I faltered in expressing it to her somehow. It was my fault that she did not understand how I felt, and it was sad that we did not work out in that relationship sense. I was heartbroken for a long time,” he said.

As it relates to his failed engagement to Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana, the outspoken Marley said he was spending some time alone at this point in his life.

“Now, I am just engaged to myself. It is tough, but we are not to ask ourselves, ‘Could you be loved?’ but to say, ‘Yes, I am loved,” he said.

Unlike his brothers, Marley chose to stay away from the microphone. Instead, he took a business approach to the music industry, assisting to transform the Bob Marley brand into an internationally accepted product.

Marley is currently the chairman of House of Marley, Marley Beverages, Marley Coffee, 1Love.org, and the Tuff Gong Clothing Company, among other enterprises.

“I am keeping my father’s legacy and ambitions alive, of natural and sustainable ideas, of giving back, of sharing, and of making the world a better place – all the values of a true Rastafarian. I am just a vehicle for carrying on what my father started. He was the first entrepreneur. He ran a recording studio in the backyard, a press implant for pressing vinyls, a record shop, and he made T-shirts. So I am proud to do this. I don’t just enjoy it, I fulljoy it,” Rohan toldOpen Magazine.

Bob Marley was recently recognised at the prestigious Grammy Awards ceremony held in the United States. A scene in the 2007 blockbuster film I Am Legend was also dedicated to the late reggae icon. It was narrated by award-winning actor Will Smith.

Marley was only nine years old when his father passed on at age 36.
