Holding this April at Arondizuogu Community cut across Three LGA's of Imo State Onuimo,Ideato North and Okigwe ..

............................

Stupidity is when you don’t have a bicycle and you give your last kobo to your pastor to buy a jet.

….Mumu is when you can’t pay your children’s school fees and yet have money to contribute to your church to build expensive schools which your children will never attend.

…Ignorance is when you believe it when your pastor tells you not to live a worldly life, and yet he enjoys all the best things in the world, the fine houses, cars, jets, etc, while you are waiting till you get to heaven to enjoy yours.

….Idiocy is when you refuse to take your very sick child to the hospital because your pastor said you should not do so, yet that same pastor secretly runs to USA for medical attention any time he has a headache.

…Kolo mental is when you see a starving poor woman with kids on the road and you refuse to give her 50 Naira out of the 5000 Naira in your pocket because it is your tithe.

….You are a zombie when you trek, dance and gallivant for 30 kilometers under the hot sun sweating and smelling like shit during your revival program, while your pastor is inside a full factory fitted airb-conditioned state of the art SUV with his delectable wife slowly driving along the road.

Elose11:

PRESS RELEASE

RE- PLANNED PROTESTS OF TUFACE AND OTHER OPPOSING GROUPS SCHEDULED FOR 5TH AND 6TH FEBRUARY, 2017, IN LAGOS AND OTHER STATES

The attention of the Nigeria Police Force has been drawn to publications in the media on the planned protests slated for 5th and 6th February, 2017 in Lagos and other States by different groups, one to be led by the popular musician INNOCENT IDIBIA aka TUFACEand other opposing groups.

2. Nigeria Police Force is deeply concerned with the security implications with regard to the planned protest/demonstrations, and as the lead security Agency in the country, is fully aware and recognizes the constitutional rights of every citizen (including Tuface and his group) to assemble and move freely in any part of the country.

3. In this regard, the Force is also cognizant of its constitutional responsibilities of taking any proactive/ preventive security measures:-

i. In the interest of public safety, public order, public morality or public health.

ii. For the purposes of protecting lives and property, as well as the constitutional rights and freedom of other citizens.

4. The Nigeria Police Force is currently in possession of credible intelligence reports that other interest groups are equally planning to hold a counter protest/matches on the same days at the same places/cities as the Tuface Group. If these various planned protests/ demonstrations are held as scheduled, that there may be breakdown of law and order, with attendant loss of lives and property.

5. To this end, the Nigeria Police Force deems it imperative to issue this press release:-

i. That Innocent Idibia (a.k.a Tuface) and his group are hereby advised strongly to shelve their planned peaceful protest/demonstration in the interest of peace and security.

ii. That the other opposing groups are equally advised strongly to shelve its planned counter protest/demonstration in the interest of peace and security.

iii. That the Nigeria Police Force is prepared to employ every possible legal means for the maintenance of law and order; and for the protection of lives and property.

6. Consequently, members of the public, parents and guardians, religious/opinion leaders and other interest groups are strongly advised to prevail on their children and wards, followers and adherents not to allow themselves to be used by any group to cause disturbance of public peace and break down of law and order.
