Main reason why I'm so much interested in this confessing video is that :
(1) My bro always tag them as Fulani.
(2) In June they operated at Oke-Eri (Ijebu-ode ibadan express way).
(3) In July they operated in between Idi-Ayunre & Mamu (ijebu-ode Ibadan express way). All these incidents happened at every 5 to 10mins b4 I got to the spot.
What I did that made God stop talking to me – Pastor Adeboye
Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has disclosed how God once stopped talking to him during one of his teachings.
Adeboye recounted how pride made God stop talking to him shortly after he got born again.
Addressing his members at the Redemption Camp, the clergyman recounted that he made a mistake of pride and he suffered for it.
According to Adeboye: “Almost immediately after I got born again, God started speaking to me, I don’t do anything without his guidance or approval. He tells me the road to ply in Lagos so that I can bypass hold up, most of you here know how terrible Lagos traffic is. Fortunately for me, I don’t experience it because God knows a better
“However, something happened that made him stop communicating with me. I used to be an interpreter to the general overseer or general superintendent like we call it those days. My father in the Lord then just took a special interest in my interpretation. When other pastors in the church then realised that the general overseer liked my interpretation, they stopped calling me to interpret for them and left me alone for the general overseer.
“I became full of myself and started bouncing around as interpreter to the general overseer but an incident happened one day. We had a program and we invited a guest minister to preach. He made a mistake that day, you may be surprised at my definition of a mistake. The mistake was that he asked me to interpret for himself. I was really angry in my spirit but I couldn’t object because it was too late.
“I stood up and interpreted for him but in my heart, I was murmuring, I said ‘How could you call me a whole interpreter to the general overseer to interpret for you’. Only if he knew what was in my mind, he would have called another person to interpret that very day.
“At the end of the program, I was on my way home and God spoke, he said ‘Son, you are now too big to interpret to a man of God other than the general overseer”. After the conversation, God stopped speaking to me, I didn’t hear His voice again.
“I suffered, that whole period was like hell, I became a victim of the traffic in Lagos.”
I have faith & confidence in my friend & brother Gov. Yahaya Bello. He NEVER paid 20 billion in a fixed deposit account.Those that are peddling these specious lies & slanderous falsehood are agents of satan from the pit of hell.Their attempt to discredit& destroy him has FAILED!
Those that believe that Yahaya would fix 20 billion Naira of public funds in a fixed deposit account do not know him. He is a man of profound decency & integrity. I am sorry for those that are peddling this falsehood. I advise them to try something else: this one has failed!
President Muhammadu Buhari has given the reason behind a reshuffle in the cabinet he formed on August 21, 2019.
Daily Trust had reported that Mohammed Sabo Nanono, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, and Sale Mamman, Minister of Power, were fired.
They were replaced by Dr. Mohammad Mahmood Abubakar, Minister of Environment, and Abubakar D. Aliyu, Minister of State, Works & Housing.
Speaking through Femi Adesina, his media aide, the president said the changes were sequel to the “tradition of subjecting our projects and programmes implementation to independent and critical self-review”.
“These significant review steps have helped to identify and strengthen weak areas, close gaps, build cohesion and synergy in governance, manage the economy and improve the delivery of public good to Nigerians.”
“I must commend this cabinet for demonstrating unparalleled resilience that helped the government to navigate the disruption to global systems and governance occasioned by the emergence of COVID-19 shortly after inauguration. The weekly Federal Executive Council meetings was not spared because the traditional mode was altered.
“As we are all aware, change is the only factor that is constant in every human endeavor and as this administration approaches its critical phase in the second term, I have found it essential to reinvigorate this cabinet in a manner that will deepen its capacity to consolidate legacy achievements.”
Buhari is not known for reshuffling his cabinet.
During his first term between 2015 and 2019, the ministers who left the cabinet resigned on their own.
Among them were Kemi Adeosun, former Finance Minister, who was involved in a certificate scandal, and Amina Mohammed, former Environment Minister, who got a UN job.
The president had reappointed 12 ministers during his second term.
Bandits have abducted students of a Secondary School in Maradun Local Government Area of Zamfara State.
Details of the incident are still sketchy but the armed men were said to have broken into the school on Wednesday morning.
A resident of the community told our correspondent that the armed men stormed the school around 11:30am when the students were writing examination.
“They blocked the doors to the classrooms and asked the students to step out.”
“Some of the students managed to escape the assault by jumping out of classrooms through the windows to hide inside nearby sorghum plantations,” the resident said.
The number of the students kidnapped can not be ascertained as at the time of filing this report but the abducted female students tend outnumber the male ones because the school is mixed.
The development comes a few days after some students abducted in the state regained freedom.
Members loyal to Simon Ekpa and members loyal to IPOB's Directorate of State (DOS) are currently engaging each other in a brutal war of words on Twitter. Problem started when the head of DOS, Chika Edoziem, accused Simon Ekpa of attempting to hijack Radio Biafra from IPOB. This didn't sit well with Ekpa who immediately took to Twitter to blast Chika. He also threatened to expose their dirty dealings.
It was an honor and privilege to visit with my friend and brother, His Excellency Governor Simon Lalong, in Jos, Plateau state today. I thank him and the people of Plateau state for the warm reception that they gave us and for hosting us so well.
Gov. Lalong and I had a very fruitful and productive meeting and I commend him for the efforts he is making to bring peace, harmony, progress and tolerance to his state.
Plateau state is one of the most important and diverse states in the country and Governor Lalong has proved himself to be the quintessential bridge-builder and man of peace. During the course of the meeting I expressed my condolences to him and the people of the state for the ugly events and loss of life that took place there recently.
May God continue to be with them, to comfort them and to heal their wounds and may the restoration of peace and harmony by Governor Lalong and his Government be sustained.
My move to solve whatever anybody have against me prove abortive. 15th August I approached HDOS with love wanted to talk, he snubbed me. 19th August, I approached HDOS wanting to talk, he responded and never get back to me. My service is to Biafra and I am loyal to Onyendu
For those of you who need clarification, the lies told against me is that I demanded “Radio Biafra should be handed over to me” this is a deliberate falsehood against my person. Different lies has been told in different quarters as to why I am not on Radio Biafra. I am still mute.
Three members of the Living Faith Church Worldwide founded by Bishop David Oyedepo have been kidnapped at Osara community in the Adavi Local Government Area of Kogi State.
It was learnt the kidnappers invaded the church during the weekend, shooting indiscriminately to scare people away before successfully whisking their victims away.
The assailants reportedly invaded the church while some members were holding a meeting.
The chairman of the local government area, Joseph Omuya Salami, confirmed the abduction of three members of the church to journalists, through his special adviser on media and publicity, Habeeb Jamiu.
He said the council chairman and the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Osara Division had visited the crime scene, and that the council was working with security agents to rescue the victims.
“Even before now, we had a series of meetings with the people of Osara community and entire farm centre. And I told them to restrict every night activities for now, and whoever that want to hold any activity in the night should get appropriate quarters informed and also get their approval to ensure that adequate security is provided, but out of their disobedience, they chose otherwise.
“We all know the security challenges of this country, and the administration of Alhaji Yahaya Adoza Bello is doing everything humanly possible to keep Kogi State safe, protect lives and property. So, all hands must be on deck to strengthen the peace in our various communities,” he said.
The United States of America, USA has expressed its readiness to help identify sponsors of Boko Haram and other terrorist groups wreaking havoc in Nigeria.
This was disclosed on Monday by the US Ambassador to Nigeria, Mary Leonard during a meeting with newsmen in the nation’s capital, Abuja.
When asked what would the US do to help the country identify the sponsors of terrorism in the country, Leonard said, “That is something we are very eager to partner Nigeria on.
“I have had at least three conversations in the last two months on this subject.
“I won’t like to go into details.”
She dismissed the notion by some Nigerians that the relationship between Nigeria and the US would crash as happened in Afghanistan, stressing that the two countries have a strong bilateral relationship unlike that of Afghanistan.
She added, “I hear people making the analogy with Afghanistan a lot, it does not match up.
“When you listen to what President Biden said on how troops went to Afghanistan in the first place, it was because they were in a horrible tragedy, over 3,000 Americans were killed.
“That is a different construct. The sovereign nations who have had strong bilateral relations. I don’t actually think the two match up.”
Also speaking, the Commander, US Air Forces in Europe, General Jeffrey Harrigian, told journalists that the purchase of Tucano fighter jets was an opportunity to cement the US relationship with Nigeria as well as curbing insecurity.
He said, “The A -29 Super Tucano gives us an opportunity to reconnect our relationship with Nigeria”.
DAILY POST reports that the country is currently facing its worst security crisis birthed by the activities of terrorists groups and bandits who have been on rampage, killing unsuspecting citizens of the country.
Despite the surrendering of some of the insurgents to Nigerian troops following onslaught against them particularly in the northeast, the security situation in the region has remained unchanged.
Tajudeen Bakare, the leader of Ogboni group, who was arrested in July during the Yoruba Nation rally in Ojota, Lagos, has said that he decided against disappearing when police seized him.
According to him, due to the fact that he was arrested alongside some other persons, he deemed it fit not to disappear.
Bakare said he is bewildered about the murder charges leveled against him by the state’s authorities, considering he had no gun in his possession during the time of his arrest.
”We were not arrested at the Yoruba Nation rally ground. And I did not kill anybody. Or how is it possible for someone who does not have a gun on him to shoot another person to death?” Bakare said in a recent interview with BBC News Yoruba.
Bakare submitted that still, he is not deterred, and in the event another Yoruba Nation rally happens, he will be actively present.
POLITICS NIGERIA recalls that Yoruba Nation rallies across Nigeria were steered by self-styled activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly called Sunday Igboho.
President Muhammadu Buhari has reacted to the internal war going on between two leaders of the Indigenous people of Biafra, Simon Ekpa and IPOB Head of Directorate of State, Chika Edoziem over ESN donations and other things.
Says IPOB are thieves not freedom fighters.
President Muhammadu Buhari has slammed the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) for unleashing terror on the South-East and parts of the South-South, describing them as thieves and terrorists.
The president said this in a statement by his media aide Garba Shehu on Sunday.
Mr Buhari, however, maintained that to achieve success, communities must unite against these horrific attacks, saying retributive violence was not the answer.
He challenged religious, traditional, and community leaders on the need to preach peace and preventing violence.
”Attempts to simplify the reasons into a basic narrative may help raise donor-dollars for international NGOs, fill pages of overseas newspapers and burnish foreign politicians’ faith credentials,” argued Mr Buhari. “But this does not increase understanding, nor offer solutions. If anything, simplistic theorising and finger-pointing make the situation worse.”
He pointed out that “it is important both for Nigerians and the international community to appreciate that there are” a multitude of factors responsible for the worsening insecurity in Nigeria.
Mr Buhari further explained that “there are no religious connotations at all when the primary purpose of these acts is to extract money.”
The president insisted that the “herder-farmer” violent conflict was a matter of “water and land,” not religion.
“Then the herder-farmer clashes. While international voices and some Nigerian politicians who seek personal gains from division declare this a matter of religion, for those involved, it is almost entirely a matter of access to water and land,” he stated. “Herders have moved their cattle into contact with farmers for millennia. But increasingly, due to population pressure, escalating aridity of northern states, and climate change, they are forced to travel further south to find grazing lands.”
On the activities of IPOB, Mr Buhari noted that “further afield in the South-East, IPOB are not struggling for freedom when they attack police stations and property, but rather committing acts of terrorism” to steal money.
“IPOB is not defending Christians, as their highly paid foreign lobbyists claim,” Mr Buhari pointed out, “when almost every citizen of those states they terrorize is uniformly Christian.”
A few months ago, Mr Buhari’s regime repatriated IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya, and now facing various criminal charges in court. He is in detention. Mr Kanu and IPOB are seeking the secession of the South-East from Nigeria.
However, Mr Buhari has urged Nigerians to be united against “those who seek to divide us for their own nefarious financial and political gain.”
The war between Simon Ekpa and IPOB Head of Directorate of State, Chika Edoziem, is not ending anytime soon. It appears Nnamdi Kanu has long been forgotten. The soul and meager resources of IPOB are what they are after. Accusations upon accusations.
Na them sabi
Simon Ekpa
Chika Edoziem the HDOS, you lied against me (Simon Ekpa) but I will not respond to that and I will not address it, but just take note that what you said on Radio Biafra was false. May God Bless you but time shall tell.
Simon Ekpa amuse me. Fulani terrorists that have been carrying out ethnic cleansing in Nigeria aren't on social media talking about it. They have been very strategic with their plans, but Simon Ekpa thinks screaming War is the way out. Can't you guys mechie ọnụ for once?
