The Christian Association of Nigeria has warned the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) to stop associating Christ with criminality.

CAN issued the warning over MURIC's director, Ishaq Akintola's comment on the abduction and conversion of 9 Kano children who were reunited with their parents after 5 years.

Akintola said: “kidnapping for Christ is disgusting, nauseating, wicked and reprehensible. Kidnappers have taken over the house of God. The phenomenon of kidnapping for Christ has now rented the air. We are shocked to our marrows.”

Joseph Hayab, chairman of CAN in the northern region who reacted to the MURIC Director's comment described it as “irresponsible, derogatory and provocative.” He added that there is nothing like kidnapping for Christ.

“Criminals abound in everywhere and in every religion, for MURIC to say a crime was perpetrated for Christ, is sheer mischief aimed at provoking Christians,” he said.

“How could rational, sane and educated person, associate the action of criminals to a religion? There are many instances where Christian girls were abducted, forcefully converted to Islam and married off by criminals in Northern Nigeria. In some of these cases, the police either refused to act, or turned blind eyes.

“Will it be right to accused all Muslims for the action of such criminals? The answer is no.

“A particular group which belongs to a particular religious group has always been alleged to be responsible for the rampant kidnappings and banditry across the country, especially in the north, will it be right to say that they are committing the crime to promote their tribe or religion?

“We also have the case of Leah Sharibu who is still being held by Boko Haram insurgents for refusing to denounce her Christian faith and convert to Islam. No Christian has associated Muslims with such criminal acts.

“If we have any witness against the culprits behind the abduction, we will join hands with the people of Kano to testify against him or them in court.

“There is nothing like kidnapping for Christ. This evil kidnapper or child trafficker, knowing that he did not carry away the children for religion gave them new tribal names, MURIC should note.

“CAN northern states, therefore, condemned anybody carrying peoples children away and supports security agencies to investigate the matter and prosecute the culprits. Abduction of children is a criminal offence. MURIC can call whoever is found doing that whatever name they like, but don’t associate criminality with Christ.”

Can MURIC come out to condemn forced abduction and convention to Islam by muslims? They won't.

They can make billions as traders but want to settle for smaller settlement.

So I’ve never actually brought a personal issue to this forum, but this one is beyond me and I don’t know the best course of action to take here. I believe that there are people here who may have had a similar experience or might know what best to do. This may be a bit long.

So there’s this neighbor of mine whom I have an after-school agreement with. She’s a stay-at-home mum with two kids (a nursing baby and a four-year-old) while I have one child (also four). I usually leave my office at 4:00pm, so the agreement is, after-school at 12:30pm, I’ll go pick up the kids (they go to the same school) and return to work while she watches my son for me. I get my son his lunch and snacks before he goes there, even though she’s begged me to stop doing that, but I can’t saddle her with feeding a child that’s not hers.

The issue now is, a lot of violent things have happened in that house and as of this week, my son won’t be returning there. But I fear for the woman. Our homes are separated by a wall, but we often hear the arguing and crying sometimes. I knew she was having marital issues but I didn’t know the extent.

About two weeks ago, I went to get my son from the house and I noticed he wasn’t talking as usual. My son is the very boisterous type who likes to bounce as he walks, and he’ll usually try to take the key from my hand so he’ll open the door himself. That day, he wasn’t talking as usual. He seemed scared and shaken up. I knew the woman would sometimes punish the kids by asking them to kneel down when they fought, but she wouldn’t hit them. I asked him what the issue was, if anyone at school or home had been looking for his trouble, the guy said no.
He’s very close to his father (they are best friends), so when my husband came home I asked him to talk to the boy because he couldn’t choke his food down. After about a while, my son opened up. Apparently, he’d witnessed a very violent beating that he was struggling to find the right words to explain. He said that David’s father had been punching his mother in the passage with two hands at a time, and when she’d tried to run, he brought her back and beat her more. He said that he and David had to hide under the table because they were scared of getting hurt. He then said the mother raised a flower vase and hit him on his head, but the man continued beating her and shouting at her.

I didn’t know what to say. My son had witnessed a violent beating and it traumatized him. We soothed the boy and told him to forget about it. I then knew why the woman didn’t come out to hand him over as she usually did when I went to get him. He just came to me by himself.
The next day, I was skeptical about taking my son back there but he said he doesn’t want to stop playing with David and Sandra (the one-year-old baby). After school, I picked the boys up and drove them home. David’s mom came to the door and her face was badly bruised. I had to ask her what was wrong, but she hurriedly said she fell down and then took the kids from me.

On Friday last week, two days ago, the worst happened. It was around 3:00 or 3:30 when the woman called me at work. I picked the phone up and it was my son. He said that David’s mummy was lying on the floor and wasn’t opening her eyes. He said she was still moving but she couldn’t open her eyes. That blood was coming out her nose and mouth and their daddy had driven away. My heart literally flew out of my chest.

I called my husband as I was driving home and told him to meet us at the hospital. Long story cut short, she was badly battered and torn apart, almost about to give up life. I took her and all the kids to the hospital. While they were cleaning her wounds and hooking her up to the IV, I sorted out the bills. My husband tried to reach out to hers but he was rejecting the calls, so he went to make a statement at the area police command. They told us to contact them once she wakes up to give her statement. The police doesn’t usually like to dabble into marital issues but the woman was disfigured beyond imagination.

Sadly, you won’t believe what she said when she came to after a few hours. She started begging us to not report to anybody and not even call her family. That she’ll refund us the hospital bills and we should just call her friend that lives in New Haven to come and look after her. She was trying to protect the beast that had beaten her and left her for dead. We tried to reason with her because the man would certainly kill her sooner or later. She said he’s her husband and the father of her kids, bla bla bla. She told us that she’d been confronting him about a girl he’d been gallivanting openly with him, and that’s been the cause of all their issues.

She told me to use my number and call her husband because he doesn’t have me as a contact. I called him and told him the wife he tried to kill was in the hospital. He told me that she had better remain there because he’ll kill her if she ever comes near his house again. He hung up on me. She’s still insisting that he doesn’t mean it and she must go back once she’s discharged.

The issue now is, should we withdraw the police report or take the case up? The woman’s life is in danger and she doesn’t seem to understand the seriousness of her situation, writing it off as momentary anger. I don’t know why women choose to remain in these violent situations even when they have children to live for. She’s not even thinking about her one-year-old who has been with me all weekend.

Mature advice is needed here. Pease push to front page. I don’t know if we’ll be overstepping our boundaries by trying to help her.

Stockholm syndrome.

omonla10:
mucous no be poison nw. The mucous has no effect on the body except she has infection. Modern trends means u have to learn how to pleasure ur wife. She deserves orgasm too

Can u back the bold up with scriptures?
If you obey Gods word of one wife and no pre marital sex. How will you ever miss something you never had?

oghenerobo91:
His teachings on tithe are not false. Why not study Herb 7 and 8 on your own

You be specific I have studied it. I have a thread on Mathew 23:23 so explain yourself and stop laying the burden on me.

martolux:
Freeze is representing himself while pastor Wilson is representing God.

Stop feigning stupidity.

Patrioticman007:
.
Lord una mumu never do ?. What of the plight of husband to the wife ?. A pastor just broke a home and the above sentiment is all you can say. That he sinned against his own body ?..
What of the children to the lady?, her family ?. Her in laws ?. Well what do you expect from people that worship the gods of their slave master's.

Argue with the bible that say sexual sin is against the body. Will the pastor in question need to make any restitution to anybody anywhere? Never. Will Freeze do? Definitely.
Argue with God's word.

oneclickng:
you should also relate to Hebrews 7 and 8, for your false religious beliefs about tithing.

OK. Why not be specific about which verses in Hebrews 7 & 8 you are referring to.

gazza07:
can u challenge him on that? On open platform? Guy u won't even last a sec

I wouldn't do that but count on you to bring it to his attention.
Freeze once reacted to a Nairaland thread about his teachings and I see no reason why that can't happen again.
I think the thread was by Abaghadhi or some moniker like that.

Those are our service men snuffed out by peaceful religious advocate.

martolux:
How is the pastor better than freez...they are both agents of confusion, infactthe pastor is worse because many who are not firm in Faith will fall away

I put Freeze ahead of the pastor.Freeze is living with another man's wife and you don't see how that makes a mockery of what the US pastor has done. Is the lady in the viral video married to someone else?

Let's hope you will not break loose and run when you become stuck.

Let's see how biblical knowledge is verified by mathematics.

John Heffner, a mathematics professor, puts The theory of evolution to the test, using the human population formula based on the claim that an average birth rate of 2.5 children per family yields and exponential population growth rate.

Watch him put both the Creation and Evolution Models to the test and see how each would fare under the unbiased scrutiny of Mathematics. Which one is correct, Biblical Creation or Evolution?

The Evolution Model
About 15 billion years ago the universe exploded into existence.
About 4.6 billion years ago the earth evolved
About 3.5 billion years ago life evolved
About 0.5-1.0 billion years ago humans evolved from ape-like creatures

(By time, chance and natural processes).

Creation Model
God created the universe and everything in it in 6 (24hr) days, 6,000 years ago
Sin was the cause of death
God destroyed the world by a worldwide flood
Man was created in the image of God

John Heffner put these two theories to test by using the formula; Growth rate = birth rate - death rate.

According to biblical knowledge;

Noah's flood happened about 4,500 years ago, and with 4 couples at the rate of 2.5 children per family will result in 6.5 billion people in the world. (6.5 x 10⁹)

Creation hits the bulls eye

According to the Theory of Evolution

"The evolutionary journey to modern humans ends with the appearance about 500,000 years ago of Homo Sapiens" Biology, Raven and Johnson p.525

That means about 500,000 years of man, at the rate of 2.5 children per family will produce 2.45 x 10⁹⁹⁰ people. This is more than the number of electrons in the universe!!!, which is in the 10¹³⁰

QED

I will rather go with the bible scholars who believe that millions of years passed between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2.

Freeze and cheap attention. Let him relate to Mathew 23:23 regarding his false teachings about tithes and financial seeds.
The sex-pastor fúcked up actually but then he sinned against his own body and isn't misleading as much crowd as freeze.

Good move. Government should do business. I always support that. Besides Lake Rice under Ambode was an eye opener.

Without a balanced and effective anti-corruption fight, this is false hope.

Blood Sport.

Education has been derailed in Nigeria.
All manner of useless practices have gained so much momentum.

life and death are in the power of the tongue. Who wants to pledge to Nigeria his/her country when applying for American or European visa and looking up to God for it.

Abraham should keep enjoying his stellar role at England's bench. Let say average of 2-3 minutes every matches. But for now, we are proud of you Osimehn

Can one hungry criminal pick up Tammy Abraham's mum or dad and be demanding for one stúpid ransom? I doubt it. Plus as an English player with good caps, his pension in old age is secured unlike an Oshimhen that can still be arrested by SARS for his hair style.
Abraham made the logical choice and he has the talent to compete with Harry Kane or Sterling.

let all who call the name of Christ depart from iniquity...

Buhari's govt pattern has been clear from day one. It revolves around favouring his brethren. He knows it can only favour them.

Very slippery road.

Blacks are clearly inferior in their mind. We like chaotic way of life can't unify well enough to compete.

Ikpeazukerosene:
Someone that collects tithes and offerings which are untaxed lacks the moral rights to complain about tolls by the government.

Tithes were instituted when the Isrealites were running a theocratic system of government. That was the income tax by the government.


Collect billions in tithes but your members can't point to a single thing they are benefitting from you. Isn't that the same thing with the government?

The church in Nigeria and the government are the same.

You talking off point.
Offering is voluntary but tax isn't. plus the bold is a big lie.

Funny country.

fairfora:
Please can you post the matric picture here? I know the length and breadth of UNIBEN because we see their teaching hospital UBTH, close by. Amazingly, kiko never mentioned the school she attended in her interview, another suspicion she might be hiding something about her real self. The only news that came from uniben of recent was that of Okwechime Emmanuel of UNIBEN who tried to defend an indicted lecturer.

We're waiting for the said matric picture taken by her, pls.

?? Stop smoking mosquito coil.

Bluezy13:
No one

Never claim to know people's mind on issues like this. In another news, rice that sold for 14,500 is now 19,000.
