[color=royalblue]I was expecting you to list about 100 names. Na 3 you type.

Where the remaining 97?

So the church menbers you are defending did not attend? Is this what you want us to really believe?[/color]

I can see u are trolling at this point. Carry on

izzou:
[color=royalblue]How did people that want to open Form M do it during Covid lockdown?

They went to the bank, shey?

Like i said, you want to deliberately ignore the insensitivity of Access bank, and drag a woman that waited 9 days to live her life.
[/color]

And u don't know most companies have collapsed the remote working structure of COVID-19 period Abi ?

He say insensitivity of access bank .

I'm sure the Wigwe family appreciated her 9 days wait to live her life ; that's why they included city of David in all the funeral plans .

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Attorney for the Hosts of heaven, I greet you.

Whether dey are worse or better no be my business. But dragging the woman this far because of this reason is starting to look like an agenda

See as the birthday full. No be the same church members dey there dey dance Flavour songs?

Lolz . Dey play !

Shey Alhaji razak okoya , Oba Oniru , Tony Elumelu , Oba Olaoye Ghandi etc are all members of the church Abi ?

[color=royalblue]Access can put a notice that they would be honoring his demise on a particular day

Online transactions would be up, but their offices would be shut to remember him, and they can probably organise a memorial service that day

You and I know it is possible, but let us pretend that if they shut their doors, naira will fall to 2 million/ dollar

Where e work no honour am, na person wey wait for 9 day we wan kill[/color]

Lies ! What of people that want to open form M? What of people that needs to open letter of credit ?

What I of those that need to make bulk deposits and withdrawals?

U are just throwing anything up just to see anyone that sticks just to defend the pastor's insensitivity .

izzou:
[color=royalblue]So in 9 days, you knew that the church was not with the Wigwe's family?

The greatest insensitivity here is how a company cannot honour its boss at all. If nobody can drag them for that, let Mummy rest abeg[/color]

Which comapny did not honour its boss ? Smh

Banking is regulated by BOFIA act and u know it. The company cannot deviate from it.

The pastor and his wife can postpone the celebration and the ground will not open to swallow them; in fact the family of the deceased will appreciate them for behaving like true Christians.

The pastor and his wife have led a lot of people far away from the church with their singular act. They are worse than than the priest and Levite in the Good Samaritan story .

Theflint1:
I expect the church to stay open cause it serves a purpose that's bigger than Wigwe or any of the stakeholders of the church, same way Access Bank does, but going ahead with the birthday is quite personal. Although one might consider expenses and bookings that have been made ahead of the birthday...will they start making losses on all of that?

Las Las everybody don do the one wey dey in their self-interest, it's what it is.

Exactly ! Even Dangote who is a Muslim will most likely not go ahead an elaborate party like that one few days after Wigwe's death considering his relationship with Wigwe .

Like the man Wigwe allegedly provided a non-collaterized loan for the church to build their trinity towers . A loan they are still repaying o. He didn't stop there, he ensured his company paid down for 10 year lease on an office premise in the trinity towers.

The pastor and his family no get good heart one bit!

izzou:
[color=royalblue]And how do we know they didn't weep for 9 whole days?

Like...At what point should we now permit the Pastor's wife to celebrate her own birthday?

If you cannot find any fault with a whole Access bank that could not mourn their CEO, why you wan tear this woman stainless white dress?

Your CEO and family died, and all they could do was issue a flyer, but we should crucify the Pastor and his wife for celebrating 9 days later

BlueRayDick, fear God naa [/color]

The woman's birth date is 8th January 1964; she clocked 60 in January . If she can shift the celebration till February because she was globetrotting , nothing stops her from postponing it cos of Wigwe's death.

The celebration was insensitive as at that time and it's obvious the Wigwe's didn't appreciate that. They have rightly locked the church out of the week-long program to celebrate the man. If the people cannot feel the church is with them through their trying moments , then the church has lost its course . Simple !

We've gone past access not closing down. U are the only one that knows why u keep repeating that line like it will change anything .

[color=royalblue]If the Security man had died, and the Pastor's wife celebrated her birthday days later, would you be this angry?[/color]

I know what u are trying to do with this question . But before u go far let me just tell u what I believe .

If a member of a church dies untimely and in a tragic way ; irrespective of whether the person is rich or poor the church leadership should be seen as mourning with the member's family. This should reflect in their actions and deeds ; not just by word of mouth. Their Bible says they should weep with those who weep and rejoice with those who rejoice. They decided to rejoice while the Wigwes were weeping .

The belated birthday celebration wasn't a do or die affair . Postponing the celebration or cancelling it entirely would have been better than going ahead with it. The pastor and his wife simply didn't act based on the Bible they preach to people every Sunday. There's a time for everything . They messed up. Simple !

Emaprince:
Oh flavour go the birthday?

These people are not serious. Smh

Very unserious set of people .

izzou:
[color=royalblue]We can still say the exact same for City of David.

If Access decides to close its doors for one day, just to honour Wigwe, everyone, including the customers will understand.

I mean, the CEO, wife and child just died yesterday....

But No, they acted like the guy never existed. And then we want to kill the Pastor's wife for celebrating her birthday, days after.

Ahn Ahn. Let us be fair naa..

Maybe if the Pastor's daughter was getting married days after, they will cancel the wedding too.[/color]

Access cannot close its business for a day because the law expects them to serve their customers whose businesses will be impacted by their closure on a weekday that is not a public holiday .

The church on the other hand is not governed by any law that says such ; neither will the pastor's wife birthday cancellation/postponement harm anybody's business .

Wigwe was a pastor in the same church ; that should count for something at least.

U know what u are doing here is false equivalence . The pastor and his family messed up and that explains why the Wigwe family excluded them from the funeral plans . Not even service of songs ; they just treated them like strangers and fixed every Lagos program to be held at Eko Hotels

The funny thing is so many people whose faith were shaking before now have bee provided a reason to give up on the faith with the pastor and his wife's act .

And I am telling you that the same MTN is haemorrhaging cash badly.
So it means they will soon begin to charge even more or keep selling off and streamlining to maintain which will not work after a while.
Our business environment currently doesn't leave wriggle room like it did a few years ago

So MTN bleeding in their 2023 financials negate the fact that they made profit for almost 20 years after glo came on board and they had to improve on their product offering due to competition ?

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Why will i not compare the business with the church?

His own business did not deem it fit to shut down for one minute. They opened the very next day to receive money and collect charges. Nobody is dragging them for that

But somehow, we want the Pastor's wife to be crucified for having her birthday party days after Wigwe died (How she celebrated it is a different case)

For me, this issue is just overflogged. I can understand the initial shouts, but it is starting to look like an agenda.

Why is nobody dragging Access for not honouring Wigwe? [/color]

Access is a business entity owned by shareholders whom Wigwe is one of . Access is regulated by CBN and other government agencies .

The issue is not over flogged one bit! If the church leadership can't be empathetic over the death of a member , then the church has lost its place as the succor of a common man.

Morally the birthday party celebration was an unwise move on the part of the pastor and his family . Wigwe was even a fellow pastor o. Wigwe was not just a floor member in the church , he was a pastor .

If a church would not care about optics ; how then do they intend to win lost souls?

raumdeuter:
That's why I said after a certain age, try to become a stakeholder and not just contributing to another man's business without roles being clearly defined

Wigwe died but the pastor and wife continued their life. They did their party rock Shake it, Agba baller and Ashawo, your waist na 34, your breast na 44 and you are 24

And other raunchy Flavour tracks

When track reach the part of "Ukwu marimba" for inside Shake it Track wetin pastor wife go do sef?

The optics is bad but this life, everyone dey hustle their hustle

I saw somethings about Mr Ibu wey never reach 24hrs of death about his daughter IG tiktok account

At the end of the day everyone get their own agenda and wetin dem dey hustle for

I just wonder what the pastor will be preaching on the pulpit going forward . Smh

Your mistake is thinking the availability of more will lead to price crashes.
It doesn't always work like that.
An example is netflix, prime, showmax, Disney+ streaming.
Have you noticed how these platforms keep increasing prices?
Nor be mtn dey declare losses? How long do you think they will maintain the price of their "cheap" services?
Don't they offer it on a large scale?

U are not really making an important point here. I pointed u to the fact that MTN found a way to accommodate some of the things they considered unprofitable when glo came around. That's what happens when u have competition.

A business owner will be willing to lose some part of its over bloated profit rather than lose almost everything to a competitor with better product offering . It is what it is.

This was published on BusinessDay newspaper omo.

Now this also confirms this man's close relationship with the president too😂😂

I am interested in knowing the name of the author of this article . These are the people I always issues with.

I don't have issues with IBD Dende being a smuggler who was seen assaulting a customs officer in a video that was not edited ; neither do I have issues with each and every customs officer trying to pacify him in the video knowing the kind of influence he wielded across the boarder and even to Aso rock.

However , I have issues with educated ediots like the author of that article trying to whitewash Dende's self-battered image and attempting to gaslight the public about him being victimized.

Somebody that used his own mouth to allege the customs boss is involved in smuggling ; so he should be allowed to carry out his own smuggling activities too. How do u explain tbat away ? Do these people think their audience are fools ?

Shey na this birthday dem say na Flavour come entertain abi ba another pastors wife

Na this same birthday .

GloriousGbola:
All those other big men in the church will be looking at the pastor with side eye.

So na so if I kpam you go dance on my corpse before it has been interred? Okay ooo

The man no try at all. I saw video of his tribute to Wigwe a day after the helicopter crash was confirmed. He was all gloomy and emotional in the video.

One would've thought he would postpone the wife's birthday celebrations after that . I'm sure they have a list of everyone they invited to the party initially. Sending a message to them about the postponement would not have been a big deal at all; those ones would've understood especially knowing that the initial birth day was actually January and not February in the first place

izzou:
[color=royalblue]If she postpones it, and somebody dies again before the date, wetin she for do?

Even the Access bank opened their branches the very next day after he died. They didn't even close for one day to honour Wigwe.

I think this issue may be overflogged.[/color]

Lolz . U are comparing a business ( a going concern ) like access bank with a church ? Really ?

A church is like a moral compass!! Why do u think the story of Good Samaritan was emphasized in the Bible ? A priest and a Levite saw a man beaten and injured by a thief and they passed him over trying to avoid wahala . But a Samaritan who is generally not regarded as godly took it upon himself not only to tend to the injured man, took him to an inn, paid for his cost of hospitalization and even promised to pay whatever additional cost May accrue when he comes back.

There was a reason he was labelled " Good Samaritan" cos he did what was morally right at that point. He behaved better than a priest who was more like an ordained pastor and a Levite whose tribe were chosen to serve God in their works and deeds.

A lot of people will lose their faith with the act of this pastor & his family whether u believe it or not

Dstv prices are very cheap compared to what they offer.
We've had this conversation multiple times already.
Especially when people want them to adopt pay per view.
Well that's my belief sha

Your believe doesn't negate the fact that DSTV is enjoying economies of scale which comes naturally to them because they don't have any viable competitor .

Let me explain it to u. MTN for example have competitors in glo and airtel and people can decide to port to those ISP's provided they are willing to live with the little inadequacies/inefficiencies of those competitors . DSTV on the other hand is the only cable TV operator that offers the service they offer and they have the whole country at their beck and call.

If there are two or more competitions for DSTV , they will always consider those ones' reaction anytime they think of an increase in price .

The same way u think what DSTV offer is cheap was the same way people thought what MTN offered was cheap until glo came and changed the game of billing. Since the year glo debuted MTN has always made profit charging lesser prices ( of course until 2023 when they made their first loss due to foreign exchange losses occasioned by the devaluation of naira )

The man in the video is Pastor of RCCG city of David; Oniru estate Victoria Island where Hwrbert Wigwe worshipped before his untimely demise.

The ocassion was the 60th birthday of the pastor's wife on 18th February 2024. Herbert Wigwe died on 9th February 2024 and somehow the pastor and his wife went ahead to celebrate the pastor's wife's extravagant birthday 9 days after .

Below is the account of a member's opinion of who Herbert Wigwe was to them in that church .

Personally, I believe there's everything wrong with the pastor's wife's birthday party celebration. The fact that the woman was actually born in January and she postponed the party to February means she could as well have postponed it further after the tragedy of Wigwe's death.

He can't even raise that money.
The money has increased over time and when you add the fx situation.
Then the fact that dstv offers alot more than they used to them.
You can stream with multiple devices on dstv.
Tstv would have to first set up the needed infrastructure needed for all of that.

Honestly we still pay peanuts for dstv compared to what they offer.
Switch that shit to dollars and you'll see how cheap it is.
Lets not forget the power aspect.

We are not paying peanuts for DSTV; they are are banking on economies of scale and it's working for them. They don't have any competitor so they have the whole market share to themselves ; even if they reduce their prices today they will still make profit in Nigeria

TrebleChamp:
What happened to TSTV?

TSTV was never a serious a company to start with

iamoyindamola:
Nigeria happened to hitv
I read they couldn't cope with the bribing and naija people also hack them to have free access

No, I don't think it was bribing that ended HiTV. I learnt it was their inability to get access to credit facility to pay for EPL rights because most of the banks were not willing to offer them loan for that purpose .

There was a deadline for payment of TV rights for EPL and HiTV couldn't come up with the funds before the deadline .

Even Toyin Subair's love for spending in front of K1 and other popular musicians didn't help matters . Toyin Subair is now a special assistant to Tinubu sha ; maybe he will rise from the ashes sonetikes later and slug it out with DSTV now that he has connected to the hisghest source of power in the land .

GloriousGbola:
it is not

the problem is the colour [colour and colour tempearture] and quality of lights used. it enhanced our viewing experience, but then i got this big dark wooden backboard and that messed up the contrast

my personal expereince is that most of teh time, when nigerian artisans do not have a full and proper understanding of what they are doing so you get a sub par experience

same way people mix differnt colour temperature led lights in peoples houses

I'm sorry I can never enjoy watching TV with lights on as much as without lights on. The only light I want to see is the one coming from the TV/screen .

Theflint1:
Home decor with light at the back of TVs, isn't the light distracting? I've never really been a fan of such home decor.

https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3_EV-dRiHs/?igsh=Y3FvcjN1cmRydTRp

I hate that shiiit! Even when we dey watch ball for viewing center that year , na only when onile wan collect money he dey switch on light. Once he collects his money he must switch off the light for us to enjoy champions league football .

Putting on light in a viewing center or putting light at the back of ur TV in ur home is like switching on light at a cinema to watch a movie.

iamoyindamola:
Telecom companies have too many competitions to deal with
They snooze they lose a lot of customers
Unlike DStv they are on their own league they still have to create a mini competition from their own (gotv)
If those guys have serious competition NBC don't need to regulate them before they give their self brain

U are spot-on on this. HiTV really messed up not seeing through their competition with DSTV.

By now we won't be dealing with arbitrary increase in price from DSTV
