What if I hear it from someone using a megaphone in front of my house who have refused to go? Or people coming to knock on my door every now and then? Or someone spitting in my face and disturbing my peace in the bus? Or me being told to repent and harassed in the market place? Or my kids being forced to study CRK in school? Who needs to apply common sense in this case?

Simply ask them to excuse you. They have done what is best for you and they are free from any blame arising from it.
Preaching the gospel isn't only meant save souls, BUT to damn any excuse you might ever have for rejecting the Offer! "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness..." Matthew 24:14

Have you been following the responses and reactions to the CAMA bill?

LMAO. I think "disgruntled" is very subtle in this context.

And I had to bring in "the PYO's advice" to buttress my point.

You didn't bring pyo's advice. You inferred the word from the 'advice'.
BTW, the world has gone beyond the synonymous use of words.
Certain words are not politically correct and this is one of them in THIS instance. Anyway, it's no big deal.

I am not into all these ad infinitum discussions or back and forth criticisms but the government gives you grants based on how you perform? I really don't understand that part.

Besides, the "Church" is not really a "charity organization and should not even be collecting grants from governments for preaching the word; it should be left for the orphanage homes and NGOs.

But since the Church has been put under such term they should not expect special treatment and would have to accept all the conditions with it.

What I am saying is if we characterize Religious bodies into charities and give grants, make laws and stipulate conditions then the religious bodies cannot be exempted from checks and balance.

Which is why the Vice President has asked for ~~disgruntled~~ [b]aggrieved, dissatisfied [/b]parties to seek dialogue and proffer a better legislation.

Abuse of word. There was nothing suggesting this in PYO's advice.

CAMA LAW:
FOR THOSE COMPARING THE UK GOVERNMENT WITH NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT
-Pastor Dennis Woruka Jnr

To those of you who think the Government regulates Churches in the UK and as such, the CAMA Bill in Nigeria should stand.

I am a Pastor in the UK. This means I can speak on this issue.

As a Church in the UK, you are seen as a charity. The UK government gives grants to the Church. For example, the government can give you £50k (N30 million Naira) at the end of the year based on how much your Church performed that year.

Because of this, the Government checks your finances to ensure the grants given to you are merited. This is how the UK Government regulates churches.

The CAMA Bill does not make any sense in Nigeria, because the Nigerian Government, to the best of my knowledge, does not give any form of grants to any Church in Nigeria. How do you want to regulate the finances of the Church , to the extent of changing her board, when the Church does not benefit from you, financially.

Therefore, stop comparing the UK Government with Nigeria in relation to this CAMA Bill.

I am not against the government tracking down fraud or any form of money laundering.

Please note:

My Church (Fountain of Souls Ministries Int'l UK) has never collected any form of grant from the UK Government and we do not intend to do so.

BBC Admits Error, Withdraws Description Of Akinwumi Adesina As ‘Flamboyant’
By Unini Chioma -August 29, 2020
WhatsApp Twitter

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) on Friday apologised for the description of the newly elected President of the African Development Bank (AfDB) Akinwumi Adesina as ‘flamboyant.’

Mr Adesina was re-elected as the President of the bank on Thursday.

Reporting the re-election of the AfDB President, BBC wrote: “Flamboyant Nigerian banker Akinwumi Adesina has been re-elected chairman of the African Development Bank (AfDB) after weathering a political storm over allegations of corruption.”

However, the word ‘flamboyant’ raised heavy backlash from Nigerians and other Africans on social media.

Many comments accused the media house of bias against the former agriculture minister.

The organisation was also accused of fueling the already concluded probe of Mr Adesina. He was earlier quizzed this year over allegations of misconduct but the bank found the allegations to be “frivolous” and he was cleared afterwards.

Reactions to the word ‘flamboyant’ used to describe Akinwumi Adesina

“Who signed off on this? This is far from BBC standard.

1. What’s the “flamboyant” doing here?

2. “Banker” is hardly the way to describe his professional life.

3. “President” of AfDB, not “Chairman”

Or are you people now into parody ni?” Tolu Ogunlesi, a presidential aide, wrote.

Another Twitter user posted “Flamboyant”.

“That word in an article by BBC to my mind recalls British categorisation of our pre-Independence National Leaders in flowing robes – flamboyant.

“Funny part is you’d rarely find a pix of Akinwunmi Adesina in anything other than dark coloured suits.”

“Morning @BBCAfrica. Whether you like, call him flamboyant, (agungun la, agungun tete), no skin off our noses. In fact we own it. He is our own @akin_adesina of the AfDB. Yes! He is lively, dapper in a suit, expressive in face, solid brains & he is Nigerian. That’s the way we roll,” said a Twitter user.

BBC admits error

However, in a tweet on Friday evening, BBC admitted its error and posted the corrected version of the report.

This was also reflected in the section dedicated to African reports on its website.

“Correction 28 August: We have removed the description of Dr Akinwumi Adesina as “flamboyant” from this post. We recognise this – absolutely unintentionally – may have caused offence, and is irrelevant. We have also corrected Dr Adesina’s title. He is of course president of the African Development Bank, not chairman,” the news organisation wrote.

IBB Steps Aside, Shonekan Takes Over
August 26, 20151720 0

~~22 YEARS AGO~~ NOW 27 YEARS AGO — Public opinion turned against military “president” Ibrahim Babangida after his government had annulled the June 12, 1993, presidential election. Under pressure from his military colleagues, he offered to “step aside”.

On this day, August 26, IBB handed over power to Chief Ernest Shonekan whom he had appointed into a transitional government earlier that year. Shonekan became head of state or head of the interim national government, but not commander-in-chief of the armed forces. His regime lasted 82 days: Gen. Sani Abacha ousted him in a coup on November 17.
