Anambralstson: COVID-19: HIS MAJESTY IGWE UMENYIORA DOLES OUT GIFTS TO WIDOWS, SICK AND ELDERLY IN OGBUNIKE COMMUNITY
It was indeed a joyous Saturday in Ogbunike Community as the Traditional Ruler, Igwe J.O Umenyiora (Ezedioramma 1 of Ogbunike, Okpala Iguedo), Oyi Local Government Area, Anambra State distributed over 1000 bags of 10kg rice, cartons of Tummy-Tummy noodles and tin tomatoes to widows, the sick and elderly to help cushion the effects of the lockdown occasioned by the coronavirus pandemic.
While addressing the beneficiaries in his round palace, Igwe Umenyiora commended Governor Willie Obiano for the stimulus packages recently distributed to the elderly who are 70 years of age and above in all the 181 communities in the State.
" My children said Dad, it's time you rest so we can take over, that they want to do things for the widows. You've been doing it for ages and next year you'll be eighty (80) and will be celebrating your forty-five (45) years on the throne. So, I said okay whatever you want to do now you can do them".
"Am highly impressed because the Governor started it and I expect everybody to come to the aid of the government because they can't do it alone."
"So that not withstanding, I think the little my children are giving, they can manage it. They're willing to do more for Ogbunike Community."
"The beneficiaries were selected from villages, kindreds and each told us how many widows they have and our substantive Chiefs will confirm. We have the right people to share to not impersonators".
"You've to be present to pick the items yourself unless you can not move out of your house then we will send someone to your house with the consignment to your home to make sure you receive it. We don't want to hand it over to anyone who will divert the materials, not with me, you must receive it".
Igwe Umenyiora also commended Ndi Ogbunike for there 100% compliance to the State Government's directives on the stoppage of burial, wedding and other social gatherings due to the Covid19. He said; " its unfortunate but you don't have to blame anybody, you don't blame the Governor, he has done marvelously well for the State. Infact we have to sympathize with him because he has done a lot of projects for communities in Anambra and at same time with this problem, he's still giving us food to eat."
"Our people should really come together and assist him. I hate the idea of seeing our people donating 1billion Naira to FG and then coming to our State to donate one or two million, our people need to start thinking now."
He also called on wealthy Ogbunike individuals to come to the rescue of the vulnerable people in the community who can't support themselves at this critical period.
On his part, the Caretaker Chairman of Ogbunike Progress Union, Comr. Chukwugozie Ikegulu commended the Royal family for the palliatives. He commended some of our indigenes that have already started reaching out to their kindred and urge others to follow suit so as to help fight the effects of the virus.
The Traditional Prime Minister of the community, Chief A.C Osadebe (Akaeze Ogbunike) said it was not an easy task to coordinate but early preparation was the key to the success recorded that day.
"I delegated responsibility to all the substantive Chiefs down to the kindred Chairmen to get us names of the widows in the their villages for the palliatives on Covid-19, that's why it was very easy to coordinate.
What we did in other to comply with the State Government's directives on social distancing is that we gave 10feet apart in starking the items and then grouped crowd in four persons giving a gap of about 3metres while they're are going to the Ofala ground to collect their gifts."
Mrs Benice Maduka who spoke on behalf of the beneficiaries praised the Igwe for helping not just the widows but all the sick and elderly in the community.
" Your Majesty, since you became our King, you've carried out wonderful projects in our community like our Town Hall, the first secondary school in Ogbunike, our famous Oye-olisa market, post office, roads and numerous schoolarships to our children and today again you've come with this palliative to help cushion the effects of Covid-19 in our community. We pray for good health, long life and may God continue to bless your children in all spheres of their lives".
"We're going home with our rice, noodles and tomatoes in a happy mood, Ife dika gi akokwana Ogbunike". She concluded.
lastgenious: My people this is scary. It was reported that 150 people just died over the weekend and the cause of their dead is yet to be ascertain, but they are already buried. What a country we live in.
It's the Presence of the Bride of JESUS Christ on Earth that is Hindering them from Operating openly!
Once Our LORD and SAVIOR Appears in the sky and takes his Church away! It will be Real Crazy Down here.. JESUS Describes it as " Such as has not been since the World was created"
Men and Brethren, Brothers and Sisters, the Time is Short! There is No More Time!
Make Peace with GOD And ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST..
There is No other way!
Keep waiting for one white man to appear in the sky that have also built mansion there in the sky... Lol
Gullible Africans falling for the white man's scam and control mechanism to keep you in line.
The white men are building their heaven here on earth and telling you yours is in the sky...
Coronavirus: Pastors are not ordinary people, anyone who assaults a pastor is in danger – Pastor Chris Oyakhilome
Pastor Chris Oyakhilome has warned against the arrest and assault of Pastors amid the outbreak of Coronavirus in the country.
The founder of Loveworld Ministries a.k.a Christ Embassy said this while reacting to a report of Pastors being arrested by government officials in a bid to enforce social distancing in churches.
Narrating a recent incident which played out, Pastor Chris recalled how a member of a taskforce boasted about arresting a Pastor.
The Christ Embassy Founder said;
“He was excited he arrested a Pastor. Terrible! But he is not the first to arrest a pastor. Jesus was arrested and Jesus was doing what the people didn’t want Him to do and the Apostles did what they were not allowed to do. The Government said, ‘Don’t preach in this name anymore’. They went on preaching. Right?! They arrested them.
"So it is not enough to say, well, if you do what the Government say not to do, then we have the power to arrest you. Arrest! That Pastor was not the first person to do what Government said don’t do. When I heard of it, I didn’t judge him because what if he was praying and that was the guidance he got?"
Pastor Chris who stated that those who arrest Pastors are in more danger than they can imagine, added that Pastors are not ordinary people.
He said;
“Let me tell you, it is not everyone that will take some of the steps that we might take. Not everyone. The Holy Spirit knows exactly how He wants things done. It’s up to Him. What I’m always saying is that, anybody who assaults a pastor is in danger.
“He is in more trouble than the Pastor. Pastors are not ordinary people. If you like you can call them ordinary men, that is up to you, but the Spirit that works with them, when that Spirit is fighting you, nobody can help you. No amount of prayer, no one can help you.
“It is only people who say they are Christians that fight ministers of the gospel. Others when they know, they remove their hands, He is a pastor. They shift away, but the one that is a Christian is bold, he enters the church. So, if you are a pastor and they assault you. Don’t feel bad, you are not the first, don’t feel bad. But, for the rest pray for your pastors, remember to pray for them. Never condemn a pastor. Never. Don’t ever do it. Don’t do it. Don’t join those who do it. Don’t! Keep your mouth to yourself.”

Continue waiting to enter a building in the sky while those that put the idea in your head have built and are still building theirs on earth. Lol
GraceSmile1: In this Kingdom, it is what is revealed that you can see.If it is not revealed to you in God and you see it else that's a wrong source.And also, it's not everything revealed that God will want it will be made known to people. Go read your Bible. God can use anyone, pray pray once again PRAY. ARguing will not solve this #BlessedWeek, Amen
rottennaija: It's deceivers yet true project. Any country or state that invest such amount in Religious buildings while school buildings are left to rot is not serious about its future.
While they should be thinking of building standard world class primary and secondary schools, they are building churches. Can Akwa Ibom proudly post pictures of world class education facilities (primary, secondary or tertiary) built in the state?
We have the most stupid and useless set of leaders. It is shameful.
Kendumazy: Children produced from the dark indeed. Mheen! God should just blow this trumpet already jooor. It's a simple logic, some people like their lovemaking been in the dark and some people likes it light on. No spiritual backing to this. It's what people's like.
De talk sef taya me... Maybe she was conceived in the dark
The things a woman gains by growing older, like financial maturity, higher education, good career etc mean VERY LITTLE to high value men who have everything in life and just need a wife. Many women have listened to advices like OP's have reached 30,educated and financially mature, only to see the men at their age group date younger women in their early 20s.
Who wants a 30yr old woman who's career obsessed and with her own money? Broke and Struggling guys. Not men with money.
The younger and fresher a woman is the higher her value and the higher quality of man she'll get.
A woman at her 30s is just a mess. Too many heartbreaks have made her bitter. Too many dicks have made her numb. Too many abortions have made her cold-hearted. But a 19 yr old girl.... She's still fresh and still believes in love and everything.
kemmylove101: Which attitude. are you saying this is right? Will they wrap a lowly poor white man from bosnia like that? If you cant answer then bugger off
We can't do that to a white man. What they did to him is totally wrong
dazzlingd: They are all bunches of idiots....white slaves...copy copy morafuckers....leave the whites to their culture and face yours ....do it the proper way, go to her parents house with proper introduction, kolanuts and wine....awon oloshi forming modern day slavery..
So I made FTC, shedding tears of joy, who says your time wont come
WackyJ1: This was an attempt by females to blackmail men on twitter, like they do every once in a while.
She was thoroughly tackled.
When girls are young, they look down on their fellow agemates or even guys that are just older than they are with 2-3 years, They love older men because they are more mature. They say older men know how to treat women better. They get gifts and financial assistance from those older men. They even keep sugar daddies.
But when these ladies get old and they start seeing that they are not young enough or fresh enough to keep up with the younger ladies, they turn around to post nonsense like this.
EVILFOREST: Honestly what will a MAN who entered MARRIAGE with the SOLE AIM of COMPANIONSHIP and PROCREATION gain from marrying a LADY of 28 years and above...?
The FUNNY THING is that the REASONING of MOST LADIES doesn't grow exponentially with Increasing Age. Meaning, u shouldn't be surprised when a LADY in her Late 30s starts discharging DESPICABLE things from her brains by the way she thinks.
Most LADIES who lick their PASTORS up are not in their Early 20s, rather they are in their LATE 30s and MID 40s even 50s. Don't ever think a LADY'S sense of Reasoning and maturity increases as she grows.
So it's FAR better to MARRY a very YOUNG LADY and nurture her up the way you want her to be nurtured and known.
