I'm 100% behind you. Those criminal churches you listed there are part of the evils holding the country back.

Candour: That is the reality of today's churches. They deny that suffering is a part of life so why should they be associated with death, the ultimate leveller?
Its the practice in every so called pentecostal church of today baring maybe DLBC, Apostolic Faith and some very few others.

People that refuse to acknowledge common malaria attack so as not to appear faithless, how will they announce death? Then the greed, avarice and covetousness in these gatherings prevent them from being honest about death. A Christian conscious of death will surely walk circumspectly and will not be bogged down by material things when you know your life on earth is temporal.

Announcing death or being associated with death is very bad for business. Church for them is one big party and death is sobering. They need the members far from being sober so they can't do any introspection. Everybody jumps up, feels high and goes back home to prepare for the following Sunday's fix. No opportunity for any reflection.

I think we Nigerians are in some way responsible for this madness. Why can't we organize and bring some form of justice to this evil Oyedipo and his criminal empire. I know it's impossible to bring him to justice in this country, but justice could be brought to him!

This guy is among some Yorubas in this government doing the right thing for fatherland. I highly commend him and fellow Nigerians should do the same. His fight against fertilizer scam in Nigeria is unprecedented and he seem to be making a huge impact, thereby making the stuff available to people that really need them;..our struggling farmers.

Another gorgeous SE/SS woman doing the right thing at the aviation ministry. Same goes for Arunma Otteh of security and exchange commission. Our gals are simply the best.

A reputable research done by TVL Global Financial has shown that nigerian pastors have a combined futurne of 1.5 trillion naira. The first ten richest pastors own 80% of this forturne and they're all Yorubas. 90% of this futurne comes from tithe paid mostly by Igbos who for inexplicable reasons continue to fall for the antics of incorrigible lieing pastors from a certain part of Nigeria. The research also showed that Yorubas don't attend churches where the pastor or GO is somebody outside their ethnic group. South Easterners and South.S. should wake up and smell the koffi. These two ethnic groups are on downward spiral because scarce resource are being sent to criminal pastors for the development of their regions. Can you imagine how many banks 1.5 trillion can establish, how many private universities it can build, how many shoping malls it can built, how many orphans it can help, how many widows it can feed. They use your money to buy up Nigeria for their gang while you continue playing mumu. Most major industries are in the hand of these group and their ethnic group and the source of the funding is your tithe. You have to wake up or your departed ancestors will never allow you to progress.

If you beleive this story then you're simply not exposed. There is no money in agriculture to warrant such amount of money, unless its for charity.

These're giant generators being hyped as IPP. Lagos state boasts of having economy larger than Ghana but can't supply steady eclectricity to any residence. What happened to the Lagos mono rail? Fashola is busy chasing okada and waging war of attriction against the poor all over Lagos. He should go to east and south south to see what is called IPP, not those his Mekano generators. Lagos state needs thousands of mega watts, not this measrable ten or twenty MWs.

What a stupid question! Do pastors follow their own teaching?

peterphd: Nice article but number seven spoilt it. Why can't we Africans do something good and take credit for it? Must we give it all to a "god"?

Nigeria is a land of religious extreemist, especially the pentecostal followers. People make first class in proper universities all over the world without attributing it to any supernatural force. But this is Nigeria, where things other countries take for granted are called breakthrough, spiritual favours etc. Religion and pastors have really messed this country up.

I think few hours of quality study everyday is a good starth, though there's no silver bullet for everybody.

Ich liebe dich: Yes i can

ik liebe dich nicht! enshuligon

Most of their criminal camps are along Lagos Ibadan motoway; now use your brain

haibe: I don't know, who are the jet set thieving pastors?

Don't you know where 99% of our jet set theiving pastors in Nigeria come from.

haibe: Is pastor moses rahamon popoola from south east nigeria?

"After listening to the powerful sermon delivered by the General Overseer- Pastor Moses Rahaman Popoola" unquote. Why are 90% of these self appointed General Overseers from a certain part of southern Nigeria? You can as well argue that most of our motor parts dealers are from a certain state in south east. How is it possible that christian god is always biased in choosing GOs from that region of Nigeria? Are they known for their honesty, bravery, hardwork reliablity etc, which are virtues in every religion?

These new thieving pentecostal churches and their pastors should be restricted along with other muslim extreemist group because they're simply up to no good. They're damaging what is left of sanity in this country with their mass deception and corruption of the people and environment.

what's going on here? I was trying to quote and support SINMPLESAYI for his brilliant post and my quotes keep going for the shoe shinners.

odua boy: Here lies your answer

I completly support your messege.
Just show us the "good" tiding to write about our thieving elites and this man. If all of you're possesed by the demon on amnesia, count me out. Some of us will never forget so easily the national ID card scam he pulled on us with some french companies.

Who wouldn't cry after your own mother tries to snuff life out of you.

Nope, I kick them in the teeth

The more you try to answer this question the more you expose the hoax called christianity and islam.

Do you call yourself a graduate with this primary school grammer? The quality of tuition in that your FUTA is simply not fit for purpose. No ten year old in Europe would write so poorly!

engroke: hello please are u a futarian or possibly. Physics garduate of futa cos dat phrase "see morocco see spain" was often used by my quantum mechanics lecturer in my final year, i could remember how will use to answer him with "NA WATER".........see morocco see spain omo na water

With your view and grammer, you're certainly not a graduate. Nigerian universities are glorified secondary schools in terms of academic research.

[quote author=Itoroetti ]All professions has its ethnics of which dressing code and attitude exhibition is part of them.
Hence passing through school without some positively minded attitude permits one to ask a question of the difference between a graduate and none graduate.

I think the schools are right,just that some of the rules maynot be really ok[/quote]

Because he didn't come to scam me in my house then it's all okey for you? You're a real dick head.

ehemwhy: DId he come to your house to Rob you ?true talk common sense is not common

One day he will be draged and flogged in the street like a common thief he is, for all the hardship and nuisance he has and still causing motorist on Lagos Ibadan express way. The huge scam he's running at that evil camp warrants a visit from Boko Haram. The thief and his supporters are all guilty.

That's rubbish, airports don't matter. We have the highest concentration of pastors that can qoate the bible from page to page which those backward countries with best airports can't boast of. You can't beat that, can you? The same goes for our eclectricity power supply, our universites, our roads, our healthcare etc. We come first in god fearing pastors that move around in jets....that's the most important.

My best friend is one of the crook pastors of one of those miracle grounds churches along Lagos Ibadan rd. He confessed to me; after his wife exposed him, how most of their pastors, including himself, are in the action of having sex with members. He says as soon as a woman agrees to something like spiritual bath, she is easily going to agree to every other thing because at that point she's no more in control of herself.

You can't prove what you don't know. No matter how you dress it, if you don't know it, your proof will be full of holes. That is the problem of organised religion because all of them try to prove the existence of some kind of creator their own dogmas.

Agnosticism is the answer. Agnostics believe that "if god exist or not we wouln't know" because we honestly don't have any way of knowing. In view of that, all those claim of our thieving pastors of communicating with god is b/shit. Both christianity and Islam are just man made just like other religions that existed thousands of years before those two criminal religions. The mystries attributed to Jesus Christ were a copy and paste of earlier gods that existed thousands of years before christianity.

I am the GOD those backward Nigerians pray to. And I have decided to deny them steady electricity, good road, good and affordable health care, job after terrible university education and all the good things other countries take for granted. Why did I decide to do that you may ask; well, because you have a lot of ignorant block heads in the country.

Yaruba at it again. Thieving pastors, dishonest cowardly back-stabbing elders, 419 youths, drug barons, .....Yorubas bring only shame to Nigeria.

You must be a certified criminal. we are criticizing this thieving lying pastor because people pay tithe to him. We are criticising him because we love honesty and hate those that don't practice what they preach. I know those ethical issues don't make sense to you because your mind is crooked. You type specialise in scamming innocent hard-up folks their money in the name of fake miracles. Tell your boss the theiving pastor that all attempts to whitewash this abuse will not work. Shame on you.

Why can't we just march down to that his brothel called coza church and knock it down for good. We can't take it anymore from this crooks.

therealMcCain: From all scriptures you find that God has a way of dealing with his people and servants, it is not in our place to pass judgement on them. Leave the church leaders to the God that called them
This doesn’t mean that they cant be scolded or disciplined. There is grounds for that but it has to be done by someone who has that authority. For example, In a church if a deacon does something wrong, the pastor is there to correct that one. If it’s a senior pastor, the General overseer can do that.

But if it’s the G.O that’s does something wrong, fellow G.O’s from other ministry can do that or organizations like CAN & PFN can come in.

If he/she refuses such, you then leave them to God. It will be wrong for a member to do the scolding or disciplining. Miraims case will buttress my point

How many of you will come back from work to find out that your child has been mercilessly beaten by the maiguard or househelp, will you be happy?? Regardless of what your child has done, you feel its your right as a parent to do the disciplining!! (am not talking about a maid spanking your kid or asking him/her to kneel)

Same with God!!!!!!

nothing is secred there. people like you are a waste of space. call a spade a spade and stop this stupidity.

myOGAonTOP: Leave the sacred things of God for God! I beg all you.
2 samuel 6 : 1 - 7 is a perfect case study of someone who was trying to 'help' God out and stabilise His temple.
An ordained man of will ALWAYS have God's attention no matter what. His sins are only subject to God's judgement and reprimand . No other is allowed to venture into it.
In the case of moses as the OP cited;
1. Miriam was older than moses. She nursed him.
2. She was a prophetess well versed in spiritual matters.
3. She was 'right' in her assessment of the issue. Moses was wrong.
Yet.......i always shy away from such dicey issue because Yaweh is sovereighn and at such no man is qualified to do His duty for Him i.e passing judgement on someone He called to serve. Pls be guided so as not to provoke .......
