Congress of Northern Nigeria Christians (CNNC) has urged the Federal Government to constitute a probe panel to investigate the recent Kaduna crises, discover the cause, the perpetrators and ensure peace.

Speaking through its Media and Publicity Secretary Larry Joseph Yammai, the Christian body noted that the panel of inquiry will ensure that the crises do not spill to other parts of the state and other states.

It also called for a commission to resettle those displaced from their homes to enable them go back and live their normal lives.



The umbrella body of Christians in the 19 Northern states and the FCT, lamented the killing of Agom Adara by his kidnappers.

“CNNC is saddened by the gruesome murder of the Agom Adara, Dr Maiwada Galadima (JP). This reprehensible act that should have no place in today’s Nigeria, appears to be a recurrent decimal within communities of our members. We recall that Etum Numana, Malam Gambo Makama and his expectant wife were also killed on January 1.

CNN)Tropical Storm Florence’s relentless rain is flooding parts of the Carolinas and promises even more for days, officials said Saturday, a day after it landed as a hurricane and left at least six people dead — including a baby.

“The flood danger from this storm is more immediate today than when it … made landfall 24 hours ago,” North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper said Saturday morning. “We face walls of water at our coasts, along our rivers, across our farmland, in our cities and in our towns.”
The storm’s center is crawling over South Carolina, but many of its main rain bands still are over already-saturated North Carolina — setting up what may be days of flooding for some communities.

79-year-old Bill Oxley, ex-agent of America’s Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is re-writing the history of the death of reggae legend Bob Marley, claiming he actually killed the legend.

Marley tragically died aged only 36-years-old, leading music lovers world-wide to grieve as the Jamaican icon’s life and career were cut short following a four-year battle with cancer.

The story of cancer may seem untrue as startling claims have emerged from a deathbed confession made by an ex-CIA officer, where he admitted to the killing.

Oxley is alleged to have claimed the murder of Marley among 17 other assassinations for the American government between 1974 and 1985, at a time when he said the CIA “was a law unto itself.”

Pastors are the most misunderstood and over-rated human being on earth today. They are rated as semi – gods , incapable of enjoying the pleasures that life present.
Ask some Christian and they will bet their life savings that pastors have never visited the toilet, not to talk of having sex, because they see pastors on Sunday morning well dressed in their suit and tie looking freshly anointed.
You can jump into conclusion that they just arrived from heaven and perhaps they didn’t see or smell the perfume of their wives .
Pastor Peter Briggs of Glorious Towers, Said, “pastors are not woods that cannot feel, it is the same with pastors as it is with other men.
Pastors get Hot too, they are not weak and their ‘thing’ dangles like that of other men. If further observed ‘sex’ is an integral part of every marriage”.
He pointed out that, “would you rather want to see your pastor being ‘erect’ on the pulpit on Sunday morning ‘?
Pastors also get Hot anytime and when the urge comes they would want to satisfy themselves like every other man. He said that ‘ people who think pastor do not have sex on Sunday must be funny.
