I don't know why some people blame pastors for every darn thing....
Recently the church of God has been a major target for trigger happy accusers who live in self denial and fail to realise the impact the Church of God makes in keeping sanity in the Nigerian society.
All these hasty generalised accusations are unecssary and uncalled for.
Every Adult is responsible for their actions..... Is he an Infant? Or did the church decide the actions for him?

We need to stop this nonsense and call a spade a spade. We are good at pointing fingers but we forget that for every finger we point 3 fingers are pointed back at us.

Leave the Church alone and let God judge them.

Thanx dear.... I have more stories in my blog

My life was a very simple life…. Everything was in modesty and I was contented. I was a driver in Thompson And Grace Investments Limited, an oil and gas company in Eket, Akwa Ibom state. Earning about N40,000 a month and a little more than that if you consider the tips I get here and there most times.

Everybody liked me or maybe it was pity they felt for me considering the fact that I was a graduate, fluent in English and polished in character, but underemployed probably because I was not indigenous to the Niger Deltan States. Sometimes I get lots of gifts, cash inclusive from just going on simple errands. I looked and dressed good too. Amongst my colleagues (Drivers) I stood out in appearance and articulation. This made me to become a center of envy among them. But I still remained my humble self, guided by integrity and decorum.

Within 3 months of working, I was able to move out from my single room which I rented after my NYSC program, to a self-contained apartment. I was also able to furnish it to my very own taste. I had a satellite TV, microwave oven, washing machine and a host of other cool stuffs. I was the only driver entrusted to take the companies vehicle home on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. Life was good to me.

A man isn't yet complete without someone to love…. There was love in the air, nothing too concrete though, just a little kick start. Her name was Rita Effiong. She was in Admin department at the company I worked. Sometimes she brings home made meals for me at the office, specially packed. She was a good cook and she was fond of me. I liked her too but we were never intimate…not yet.

Around 4:30pm one Thursday, my boss decided to leave work for home early, so I had to drive him home. His home was about 15 minutes drive from the office. The sky was threatening and I had to hasten my driving cause there was no umbrella in the car. While I was driving, I noticed a lady waiting by the road side, she wore a white long gown and had a luggage beside her. I felt so sorry for her, but there was no way on earth I could have picked her while my boss was in the car.

I reached his home and he highlighted. He then said. "Jonny boy!! Why don't you come have supper with us?"
I said. "So grateful sir, but no sir. I don't want to drive in the rain."
He then said. "Okay, Jonny. You will come pick me up tomorrow the usual time."
Then I left.

As I was driving back to work to get some of my things, I came across the lady, whom I saw earlier. I decided to stop, in order to help her. So I parked away from the road just beside her, I then came down and went to meet her. I said to her. "Hello, my name is John and I believe you are stranded."
She looked a bit relaxed and said. "No. I am fine. I am only waiting here for someone. I will be okay."
I then said. "Please, the sky is heavy with rain, there will be a down pour any moment and I wont forgive myself if you end up in the rain. Please you need to know, I am only trying to be of help"

After much persuasion she then decided to enter the car, so I led her to the back seat and placed her luggage in the boot. As soon as she was seated in the car the rain started to pour.
I asked her. "Sorry, may I know your name?"
She answered. "My name is Amanda."
I then asked. "Amanda where are you heading to?"
She replied. "I am going to Kwa Ibo."

I pondered…. cause I have never heard of that place before. So I quickly went through an app on my phone: GPS driving route, so I could locate it. I then saw that it was about 22km from where we were. So we headed to Kwa Ibo. We journeyed for about 30 minutes until we got to the town. It was a quiet coastal town and the moment we entered the town, the rain stopped falling.

I dropped her off, got her luggage out and wished her well. She smiled at me and said. "Thank you so much John. I truly appreciate your kindness."
I said to her. "It's okay Amanda, I am glad you are safe at your destination. You take care of your self bye."
She then said. "It is well with you. Bye John."
I stood for a while, looking at her and admiring her beauty. Then I entered the car and zoomed off. It was dark and I decided to head straight to my apartment, there was no way I could go back to the office to pick up my things

As I got home, I helped myself with dinner, took a shower and headed straight to bed. That night, I had an unusual dream. Normally I hardly remember my dreams, but this one was quite peculiar. I bumped into a pretty damsel, she was so beautiful that I could term her angelic in appearance. She said to me. "Come with me."
Like I had an option? I followed her and we headed to a beautiful garden, in form of a court. In the middle of the garden there was a table and 2 chairs. We both sat and ate a variety of fruits. That was all I could remember, then I woke up the following morning and had to prepare for the day.

While I was cleaning the car, I realized there was a trinket on the back seat, it looked more like a tree made up of bronze or gold with a precious stone on it. I knew someone must have left it behind, but I didn't know who. My options were either my Boss or Amanda. I was in a dilemma, I couldn't ask my boss, because if it's not his, then I am in trouble. I am not allowed to carry any unassigned person in the company vehicle.

I placed the trinket on the dashboard in the car hoping that when my boss sees it he would claim it, That is if it belongs to him. When I got to his place to pick him up, he sighted the trinket and said. "Jonny boy!! That stuff looks girlie, what are you doing with it?"
I just laughed, and drove straight to work, knowing fully well that the trinket didn't belong to him.

On getting to the office premises, still in the car, my boss called my attention and as I turned to reach out to him, he counted N15,000 and handed it over to me. I then said. "Sir, what for Sir?"
He laughed and said. "Use it to by yourself lunch."

My boss had never given me such an amount before. I just assumed he was in a good mood. I then had to go to the office to get some of my things. Then I bumped into the chairman of the company. I have never met him one on one before, I only used to see his picture frame on the walls of the building. He caught my glimpse and said. "Young man come here."
I went towards him and said. "Good morning Sir."
He answered. "Good morning. What a good looking man. I never knew I had such a good looking man working for me here. What position do you hold.?"
I said to him. "I am a driver Sir."
He then said. "WHAT!!" As he took off his glasses and narrowed his eyes on me. "You mean you are a driver? Are you a graduate?"
I said to him. "Yes Sir, I am a graduate. I have a B.Sc. in Business Administration. I finished with a two one."
He then asked. "What state are you from?"
I answered him. "Kogi state Sir."
He said. "See me in my office in 30 minutes."

Rita then came to me and said. "John, today might be your lucky day." I just didn't understand what was going on in my life. First thing, I got a N15,000 tip from my boss and next thing my chairman wants to see me…. I was beginning to feel lucky.

30 minutes later, I went to see the chairman. He said. "Have a seat John."
I sat down with so much anxiety.

He took his time perusing some documents and after a minute he focused on me and said. "I am so sorry that you were underemployed. I had know idea about it. I really feel I should make it up to you. From your documents here, you are known for honesty and integrity. I think it's time we put good use of your qualifications and your character for our benefit."

I was shocked beyond expression. I then said. "Sir, I don't get you Sir."
He laughed and said to me. "Young man, I just feel you deserve a lot better. Would you mind if you are responsible in consolidating our sales operation in oil and gas? We had a little problem with the young man in charge and we need a replacement. Are you in?"

For a moment, it felt like a dream. But I was very aware of my environment and in tune with my senses. So I knew it was real. I then said. "Sir, I am ready to serve and I am more than willing to work with you to the best of my ability."
He said. "That's good, I am very glad you accepted the offer. The other guy, because he is from here, looted and when he was tired of looting he fled to the UK, that was just last week. So John, you need to prove yourself worthy for the task."
I then said. "Sir, I will not disappoint. I give you my word. So Sir when do I begin."
He then said. "Your work starts now. By Sunday, you should be able to move into your new quarters. It's a 3 bedroom flat fully furnished, you just need your clothes. My driver will take you to your point of duty now and there you will be briefed further on your package."

I didn't know whether to prostrate or give the chairman a hand shake, I just stood up and thanked him dearly. Next thing, the driver came in and we both left. On getting to my new office, it was a duplex and my office was on the ground floor. My new subordinates came in to meet me, they looked really obese and lazy, I knew they grew fat on "chopping money" So I had to dismiss them from their duties. I fired them and made sure they were paid their salaries in full. I then hired contract staffs, to takeover from them.

If it happens to you once u'll definetly change ur reasoning[quoqte author=kowema post=55100671]

I am never for this school of thought and would never be.
Why do I have to keep my friends away from him if he doesn't have to keep his friends away from me.
Any man I have to Isolate from my friends for watever reasons never mine.
If he chooses my friend over me finally I will walk away no fighting. It will pain me that I had to be used to bring dem together but I will never stop being positive.
All relationships must not end in marriage.!

No mind am...

Sparkle777:


Exactly, u got it. I for one, visits my boo wt friends dat am soo better than just to make the guy see how 'perfect' I am. Hehehehheh. Babes, pls make friends wt mr ibus lookalikes, jus for cases lik dis. No offence.

Looks or outward appearance isn't all a man sees.... If you wise you will keep your relationship private.

tintingz:
So you're telling us that drainage does not lead to any canal? And it is not possible for her to pass through any canal? Every constructed drainage must lead to a waste canal or river.

If i may ask you, based on your suggestion. Don't you think if she entered through the canal u suggested couldn't she exit through same?
2. What is she looking for in the gutter?

gypsey:
finding out what exactly happened would be better,I don't believe in witches and wizards either, even though I am a wizard , I even turned into a lion this morning.

From the look of things she was probably kidnapped, used as a sex slave and left for dead. And was later dumped by the road side.....

YoungBlackRico:
This comment shows the kind of home you grew up in
I understand your plight, your mum is probably the type that wakes up 5 in the morning to sell ogogoro in motor parks and only come home when you're already in bed pele. How would she know her son has malware in his brain.... ?!

I don't say what I don't know. I checked for all vehicles around me and found the names embedded in the code. I don't just believe anything the media throws at us

OK please send me the picture which clearly shows the plate number on the car.
Then I will be convinced otherwise it's a make belive. I am waiting o

FILEBE:


Why did they remove the names on the source code of the Vehicle registration website?

Why is it only Sahara reporters having all these evidences?
Do you know how many lies and half truths that media has spread?
Remember the owner of Sahara reporters was arrested recently because he tried to mess up with the wrong person.

If a reputable media like punch carried it it would have been more credible but out of all the online media, it was Sahara reporters who lie most times to stay relevant.

Hello,

This issue has already been adressed numerous times. I was there right from the first thread on this issue.

The number on the plate could be read clearly when you browsed her instagram profile and zoomed with a phone. There is even an image somewhere where it could be read. This was in 2016, in December by the way.

Now, you don't want to tell me, that the fact that the website was "updated" just when SR published this account recently, does not open your eyes, do you?

Greetings.

In her first interview she didn't know the lady that was involved with the pastor. She presumed she was Ghanian and not sure of her name. But in her last interview she was more informed. Now let me make something clear to you. I am a multimedia professional graphics is my speciality if you save any pics from any social media... you have a 99% chance of visibility you get less visibility when you do a screenshot.... but from what I can verify it's a ploy as far as I cannot see it. Show me the real pics so I can view with my eyes otherwise it's just a sham
She claimed the pastor arranged for her laptop to be stolen. What a big joke.
Her father rebuked her and denied the so called introduction she claimed the pastor and her had
Don't you see that this lady is a serial liar

LoJ:
I really fail to understand the reasoning of some people. So because Suleiman helped a few people (with people's tithes) we should overlook his actions abi?

Even Ben laden, boko haram, Isis helped a lot. That is not the issue at hand. Likewise this is not a discussion on whether or not he had the boldness to speak for Christians in the midst of the Fulani attacks.

The fact and the matter is there is palatable evidence that this clergyman had frequent encounters with the prostitute, which he himself agreed to. Which kind of relationship was it whereby he would send 8000 euros to the lady? Video calls? Frequent encounters?

Again the lady made claims which can be easily be confirmed. Sule just need to present the passport, the bank statement and all would be fine. No need for these long epistles. Most convincing is the issue of Daniella okeke which has been independently verified. That alone is enough for any sane right thinking mind.

I have no problem with two consenting adults having sex. Let him visit ashawos as much as he wishes, life is short. The only problem is the way these religious people waste people tithes and offerings to fund their lifestyles and the hypocrisy of their teaching. The joke is on gullible followers. I hope They shall now realize that their hard earned money is not shared among angels but rather among oloshos.

Every church temple mosques in Nigeria should be submitted to annual audit and their leaders should publish a public annual statement of financial position.

Verify this.... If you can read the plate number from the car. In my opinion this looks like a desperate attempt to paint the pastor black.
You just circle an invisible plate number and you make believe that it belongs to the pastor.......
The lady said the pastor promised to marry her.... Which decent man will leave his decent family and marry such a slot?
She said they had an introduction.... Her dad denied it..... and denounced her. So who do we believe?
To me she most have benefited from the pastor's generosity and she attempted to take advantage of that opportunity. Now she's popular and her so called music career will get all the attention it needs to be well known globally.
She's very smart..... She knows what she's doing

Jesus! Your first paragraph is a bloody lie! That law has been in place during GEJ, the churches took the case to court and eventually lost last year so the law had to be implemented. It's a known fact that the suspension of that law was championed by redeem members in this FEC.

Forget your conspiracy bullllshit, the people at the top draining our resources don't care about religion or ethnicity, it's what they use to occupy people like you so you don't ask the real questions.

Then why did the govt official go against protocol when the Federal Minister instructed him to discard the policy?
Don't be naive.
Or what will you say to the thousands of people who have died in the name of Fulanis. And no fulani is held responsible for the wantom killings?
Remember the lady that was killed in Abuja for preaching the gospel?
Remember the elderly woman that was killed in the north in front of her husband? Why was the killer asked to walk free?
How come some particular tribe have the licence to kill and encroach on other people's land and the Authorities look the other side?
Just try and be objective and reasonable, maybe then you will undertsand what is really going on in your God forsaken Country

remedick:
bros, type that plate number out let us see and show proof that it is same plate number on the car cos since your own is a telescope that can zoom things, mind is not and for the second image littered with html codes pleas what is that?

Nigeria is hopeless. Our bane is we have a set of generation who cannot phantom intelligence or rationality when needed. A generation raised by expo in order to attain educational prowess. An intellectual incapable breed of homo sapiens, who are victims of circumstances. God help the future of the country

obailala:
If I remember, the man actually said at first that he had nothing to do with the girls arrest... Then again, what about the other evidence which popped up yestrday pointing that the mercedes SUV of the other Daniella actress was actually registered in the name of the same man?... I'm not trying to judge the man or make conclusions on an issue I know nothing about, but to be honest, this whole story from both parties has k-leg.

If you can read the plate number from the car in the image the we can all say that it is true the pastor bought the car.
But if you can't then someone guys are desperately looking for a way to destroy the pastors reputation.
My own is that try and be a little objective not passive

azzima:
So Kaduna state government out of nowhere,decided to "manufacture " Ms Otobo??Ms Okeke toosoon more evidence will be produced and the Govt of Saudi Arabia will be accused of sponsoring this case.......mumu Nigerians !!!

Nigeria is holes with folks like u
