Buhari must be a saint. How did he allow this dubious man appointed by GEJ since 2011 to remain on this sensitive seat for so long ?

Religion has done a lot of damage to our psyche in Nigeria.

If our people were half as zealous over education, economic and political institutions as they are over religion, even China would dream of becoming like Nigeria.

These doom and gloom predictions about the trials and tribulations that humanity will face before the apocalypse isn't helping us one bit.

People often fail to plan for the future because they feel the end is near. Some accept their low status in society because they have been led to believe that poverty is their destiny, and that they will be rewarded with everlasting joy when the world is brought to a close.

For most, life has been about the ultimate plan; and as such, they have failed to take their destinies into their own hands.

I don't really see religion as a positive social influence that could promote growth.

We have had it for a long time now, and look where it has landed us.

The fight for supremacy is now rife. Some have embarked on a conquest just to gain dominance.

A good thing doesn't fight to gain acceptance. Only a bad one is forced.

Until the day that religion encourages us to be committed to ensuring that this life is the best that it can possibly be, since it is the only life that any of us have; it still remains the opium of the oppressed, like Karl Marx opined.

As for me, I don't see any wrong in charging an institution that does not provide people’s basic needs despite being built on people's sweats. They have schools but their members lack access to education. There's plenty enough money, yet they cannot push for childcare programs for members' wards.

They should be regulated...

You nailed it all. They should be regulated. The only fault of the FRC boss is disobeying order from above.

Crass ineptitude from PMB, he rather prefer Nigerians to be shortchanged on the minbar (muslims's alter) or Christians alter through 419, than to protect the idiots (gullible ones) being fleece my men in turban or suits.

Obazee acted professionally. Whether he did enforce during GEJ is another issue for another day.

There are millions of religious people who are doing better than you.
I hope u know?

Besides, the likes of India and China u mentioned are also religious people. Yet they succeed, because they are better at leadership.

Your desire to turn religion to a punching bag for all, is the reason why we cant see that our problem is leadership, not religion.

It was reported that the Minister instructed the FRC boss to suspend its implementation but the FRC boss asked the minister for paper directive, which the minister failed to give the FRC boss.

I hope Fayose and the hate possessed slowpoke followers who are to throw sling and castigate Buhari government at any given opportunity can now borrow senses with this revelation.

Here are some facts behind the mischievous action of Jim Obazee as posted by someone:


Daddy G. O.'s tactical resignation or retirement: An unpleasant development

While I agree totally with the call for Christians to go into politics én mass, I would rather call for the church first of all to go into prayers. Haven't we seen sound Christians who went into politics and became compromised by the monstrous spirit of corruption and mammonry that has eaten dip into our political system and taken root in all the seats of power?

This ungodly law that is supposedly signed into law by the National Assembly did not start as a national issue but an expression of grief by one man who became aggrieved by his pastor and general overseer. This man is the current boss of the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria.

This said man was a pastor with the RCCG who became envious of the success and power wielded by the General Overseer, because, he himself is a power hungry man. He became head of the FRC after repeatedly backstabbing his boss to whom he was number two with repeated petitions to the higher authorities against his boss until he had his way.

He has never had anything good to say about his G. O. He had always spoken I'll of him to whoever cares to hear. While he was still a pastor under the RCCG, he bragged that he had not stepped his foot into the Redemption Camp in many years.

He had always complained that the G O has asked other pastors to step down after reaching 70 years and he himself has refused to do so. And had bragged on a few occasions that he would ensure the G O steps down.

Let me add that neither he the boss nor the parastatal he heads (FRCN) has the power to execute the law, but he did. Financial Reporting Council has its jurisdiction whose bounds this man has overstepped. Recently, the kangaroo Acts of the FRC he concocted alone to favour him and his draconian regime was repealed by the National Assembly or so it seems. His satanic high handedness style of governance has been a thing of concern in the parastatal.

He became so power drunk that he tried to insult the integrity of the G O four years ago when the G O asked that he comes to see him. Only then was his church file as a pastor reviewed and he got suspended from the church. He became all the more drunk with power when he got someone who introduced him to the then president. There, he found an opportunity to present this matter to the president and gave reasons why churches and mosques should start paying taxes. He convinced the president then by running down God's servants.

He was an easy tool then because he came very handy to be used against the then Central Bank governor which led to his suspension from office. This drew him closer to the president and tactically had the president's ear. It was at that point he made way to express his devilish desire against the church with his G O as main target.

When the church suspended him and the then president left office, he quickly joined himself to Latter Rain Church and got introduced to the pastor through a member of staff of the FRC who worships there. This he did subtly because of the closeness of the pastor to this present government so he can get introduced to the new Preside Buhari. That was done.


His staff in the office are groaning under his hard leadership and cannot speak out because he had held them bound with threats and fear. This man who today is an enemy of the church has been implicated in wizardry and witchcraft and belonging to the occult. He has some cases of abuse of office and immoral activities going on in court against him which he lost recently.

Today, he is laughing because it seems his agenda is playing out. He is boasting that it will spread to all the other long serving G.O.s This, he will achieve if the church does not arise to both pray and cease power first from the realm of the spirit.

Sure, there may be billions even.

That's because religiosity promotes high income inequality. The high and mighty use religion as a means to keep the poor and downtrodden in line, create rosy expectations by painting a picture of hope, all while feeding fat on their resources and giving less accountability.

Religion leaves individuals less time, ability as well as the resources to think freely based on facts. It's a vicious circle of activities that saps energy out of anyone.

India and China are largely educated, the same cannot be said for largely Islamic countries where Western education isn't encouraged.

Even in Christianity, a lot of people who dedicate their lives to such activities often perform below their capacities. It often takes an extremely sharp individual to effectively combine religiosity with excellence in other social aspects that benefit the society.

I'm not saying religion is entirely bad, it's the intensity at which it is practiced that's bad.

It does not contradict. Infact, it complements it.

The FRC Boss asked for a gazzette for the suspension of the regulation. The Minister then wrote to the President seeking his approval for the suspension.

The president granted his approval which was sent by the Minister to the FRC Boss. By sending the approval of the president to him, the minister assumed that the FRC Boss will come to his senses and suspend the regulation. But the man still went ahead with it to the embarrassment of the minister.

Additional information for your consumption. Sanusi later floored the GEJ led Nigerian government and FRCN in court.

It just goes to show you how half-baked our Nigerian populace is.
They can't even read through and sift the contents of a publication before arriving at a conclusion.


Now that you have pointed out the irony of his statement, watch how he will come up with another uneducated conspiracy regarding the same position.

The same wailers who have been shouting Buhari is persecuting the church cannot even think to save their lives if the need arose.

It is these same half-baked nitwits that will attempt to lecture you on what is actually going on. These same half-brained people want to own an opinion no matter how loose, vacuous ,empty and irresponsible those opinions are.

Religion encourages income inequality. I still stand by that.

What do you even know about the Saudi Arabia you just mentioned?

The country is rich, yes, but the wealth does not trickle down to the vast majority of people. The gulf between the various socio-economic players is devastating. This in turn creates inequality.

Saudi Arabia is a rich country by a lot of yardsticks. Still, it's a terrible country. It denies citizens lots of basic rights, all in the name of religion. What good is your wealth when you cannot enjoy it fully?

You need to engage in some deep research.

Presidency thought was just to light tackle Papa Adeboye and other ministers of God hoping that Papa will find it difficult to step aside and by the time this turn to news..FG can now step in, in favor of Papa Adeboye to gain access to Christians through their interception into the matter. But God of Adeboye surpassed them.

I think federal govt agenda here is not working as expected

What can that sacked of Obazee result do to already done job

God of Adeboye is the wisest! From Nigeria GO to Worldwide GO! I pray may God grant Papa Adeboye much more anointing than ever before to carry on the work of God..amen!

How come an ordinary FRC Boss flouted the direct instruction of the president of a country.

A directive from a federal minister is as good as a directive from the president himself.

May be Mr. Obazee didn't realise that he had to start obeying orders from Buhari although he was appointed by GEJ.

This makes the case for new administration to review all appointees already on ground to ensure they are fully loyal and onboard.
