Trump says that Baghdadi died “whimpering and crying and screaming” after running into a dead end tunnel.

He says 11 young children were moved out of the house and are uninjured, but that Baghdadi brought three of his young children with him as he tried to escape down the tunnel. He then ignited a suicide vest, also killing his three children.

Test results gave “certain and immediate identification”, says Trump. “It was him.”


Baghdadi is dead, says Trump
President Donald Trump has just started speaking. He says last night the US brought the “world’s greatest terrorist leader to justice”. “Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead,” he says.

I am not sure if this is legal. It doesn't sound so. I think you should just lawyer up. But only do that if you have found a new job. Good luck.

Also consider mailing the education commission of the church over this matter. They are on the 4th floor of Covenant university senate building.
PoliticsOyedepo Approves N650 Million For Road Repair In Ogun State by HigherEd(op): 11:10am On Oct 24, 2019
Bishop David Oyedepo Approves N650 Million For Road Repairs

Leke Beecroft

The recent road repairs currently being undertaken will cost the Living Faith Church a whooping sum of N650 million naira (about $2 million).
The roads which cover the old toll gate bordering Lagos and Ogun States as well as stretches of the Idi-Iroko expressway from Oju Ore to Iyana Iyesi as well as Sango itself began to undergo repairs as executed by the Church recently. Traveling along the road to the border as well as Agbara and other towns had become a harrowing experience for both worshippers at the Church and non-worshippers alike every day of the week. This led the Church to intervene in order to give the people a respite.

This is not the first of such interventions, however it is the biggest single intervention till date and has helped in no small measure per time to relieve road users. Speaking yesterday, Bishop Oyedepo announced that the sum of N650 million was approved and released for the repairs, adding that Canaanland where the Church is situated is the birthplace of giants where many have gotten their spiritual and physical needs met for the past 20 years.

boxymccoy:
In as much as I respect Dr David Oyedepo, there is nothing correct in that statement... The devil was so powerless to attack Job and all that he had until God removed the hedge He built around him.In Job 1 vs 8.... Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil." it was God that said
Have you considered my servant Job?...So hear Satan's response here..."Does Job fear God for nothing, Satan replied....Job 1 vs 9....Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands, so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land. But now stretch out your hand and strike everything he has, and he will surely curse you to your face."

so look at God's response.... The LORD said to Satan, "Very well, then, everything he has is in your power, but on the man himself do not lay a finger." Then Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.

You see, if you dont know how to rightly divide the word of truth, you will believe all that men of God say just because they attract a large following... it has nothing to do with whether Job was paying tithes or not....If you are a correct child of God, there is an hedge built around you....What Job underwent was just a test or trial just prove him, it could only come after God removed the hedge..... God bless you
I'm not saying it is correct either. Just saying it is worth the debate. Thank you and God bless you too.

Christianity EtcRe: Bishop Oyedepo Acquires New Helicopter Worth N2.5 Billion by HigherEd(op):
Again Jesusjnr you made a stupid mistake saying Dangote is richer than Living Faith Church. That's foolishness and you could only think that way because you have a mediocre way of reasoning.

When most of you think about churches you think about how they collect 10% tithe from church members.

The real asset of Church is her members. You forget that each of those member is a someone somewhere...

Let me open your head a little. 1990s Julius Berger wanted to build the largest church in the world for winners chapel. It gave a proposal of 3 billion naira. Oyedepo had other ideas, in a church event he called all engineers and architect to his office. They were too much, the church had to let some people go. Oyedepo harnessed his church members as human resources and the Faith Tabernacle was built for 100 million naira.

Amongst board of directors of etranzact, mtn, adron, gtbank, amongst parastals like customs, firs, lirs. Amongst govt officials you would see members of the church willing to offer their services with Jesus joy. And that is the definition of wealth. If anything happens to Dangote industries he is on his own. If anything happens to Winners there are millions of people who would rise to aid.

Aside that if the Church ever decides to openly to do business even Dangote would not compare in 5 years. Why? The Church in Nigeria has dangerous insider information. Has dangerous human resources to harness from, because it has people from all walks of life.

In this life you can choose to be a rich Abraham that went to heaven or a poor Lazarus that went to heaven. It's your choice.

86% of Norwegians are Christians living in sheer abundance. God would not send them to hell because their Christian brothers in Haiti are living in Abject poverty. Every man should do his own best to improve his own economic conditions and that of his Nation.

Please reject the gospel of poverty as propagated by Jesusjnr and his other brainwashed zombies. For even the bible says that "Money is a defense".
Christianity EtcRe: Bishop Oyedepo Acquires New Helicopter Worth N2.5 Billion by HigherEd(op):
Again Jesusjnr you are an hypocrite of the order of the Pharisee. You highlighted scripture where Jesus told people to sell all they have. Why don't you sell your own phone and give it as alms to the poor. It may sound simplistic but that's surely a good place to start. That phone in your hand can feed many hungry people today. The scripture says sell all you have.

Be talking as though you are in 20AD. You better wake up, this is the 21st century, you work hard less poverty wee kill you there and even Jesus would just looking at your foolishness. Be waiting for Oyedepo or the next Christian billionaire that would share his wealth with you. Keep waiting.

Very few people on earth can boast of being able to fulfill that Scripture but a religious dimwit like you would use it as a means of blackmail to equally stupid people. Don't quote me again because I won't read your juvenile arguments again.

Lol! I'm really weeping at the extent of your delusion that my calling out the modern day pharisees for their covetousness and worship of mammon means that I'm being emotional because of their riches.

So tell me what's the difference from the likes of you who derided Jesus when He did same to the Pharisees of his day, ehn?

Luke 16:14 (KJV)

14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.

You have proven Jesus saying concerning the blind leaders of the blind true, for you to possibly believe the heresy of Oyedepo that Job's riches weren't secured because he didn't tithe.

Because tell me, what was the purpose of the hedge?

Does that not equate to God rebuking the devourer for Job's sake?

I mean it's as clear a heresy that even the blind would be able to see it, but it's a shame that you decided that you must fall inside the pit with your blind leader.

I really weep for you.
You talk like someone who has an angry demon living inside of him. You are free to haul whatever insult you choose to haul. I really choose not to waste my time on a blockhead who has chosen the path of stupidity.

The bible not me said
1) Tithing was for rebuking the devourer - established

2) Job a man of God was 'devoured' at a point in his life - established

3) There was no record of Job tithing like Abraham, Isaac or Moses - established

Therefore would you blame someone who interpreted that 1 and 3 resulted in number 2.

If Job tithed truly and God didn't rebuke the devourer for his sake then that makes the bible what? because that would render Malachi 3 as an invalid scripture even in the old testament.

jesusjnr:
Lol!

Coming from a man who said that Job's riches wasn't secured because he didn't tithe. And yet God made Job the richest man in the east, but him that tithes and emphasizes tithing as the Pharisees did, had not been made the richest man in his state talk less of this part of the world?
Lol you just getting all up and emotional. Don't cry yet.
The scripture never said that those who don't tithe wouldn't attain wealth. Even scripture reports how wealthy a paganic Egypt was, how an horrible roman empire held power and influence. So Dangote having money isn't any eye opener.

However the concept of tithing law as stated by Malachi stated that the benefit of tithing was a "rebuke of the devourer". The devourer in biblically context often refer to the devil and his host of fallen angels. 'Devouring' as expressed by Malachi meant that what legitimately belongs to God's people could be destroyed by the devil without a God intervention if they refused to tithe.

Therefore Oyedepo made an inference that is potentially correct within the context of old testament. Job didn't tithe and God did not rebuke the devourer for his sake.

"80 - 90% of my income is outside of the Living Faith Church" - Bishop Oyedepo

Covenant university receives largest endowment ever exceeding 40 billion naira

IMF Choses Covenant University venue for 75th Anniversary




Leke Beecroft

Founder and Presiding Bishop of the Living Faith Church, an organization with one of the largest networks of about 11,000 branches in 65 countries has acquired a brand new helicopter. This is in continuation of his quest to ease movement while reaching large numbers of people in his evangelical work. This acquisition is especially unique as it is the first time he will buy an aircraft with his personal resources. Previous aircraft including the only one presently in the Church inventory, a Challenger 605 with registration N633WM (World Mission) which was acquired at a cost of $25 million were all acquired by the Church through Dominion Aviation Center.

Speaking at a gathering of pastors recently, Bishop Oyedepo announced that the aircraft which had arrived Nigeria could fly from Lagos to Maiduguri or from Lagos to Abuja and back to Lagos without a need to refuel . Church Gist investigation also reveal that the aircraft is still in a Lagos seaport undergoing clearance after which it will be brought to the Church’s hangar for assemblage. Church Gist also gathered that the helicopter could be of Italian origin and produced by the Leonardo Helicopters (formerly Agusta Westland). In particular it could be either the Trekker or GrandNew series as these have capacity for covering a long range before the need for refueling.

Dr David Oyedepo has spoken often about how he was inspired by the visit of white missionaries to his village of Omu-Aran in helicopters while he was a kid. He also mentioned as early as April 1982 that God had shown him wings in a vision and when he asked, it was revealed that his ministry was going to be flying around the world carrying the gospel of Jesus Christ. This led to the acquisition by the Church of the first aircraft in March 1996 and since then, the Church has been acquiring aircraft for missionary purposes. Also, as each aircraft gets old, it is quickly exchanged for a new one to ease cost, maintenance and servicing. A few years ago, precisely in 2011, the Bishop travelled to 6 African countries within 7 days and preached 11 different sermons. This is an example of his usual itinerary which could certainly not be achieved flying normal commercial flights.

During the recent meeting, the Bishop added that 80-90 per cent of his resources come from outside the Living Faith Church adding that recently, Covenant University (CU), an institution of the Church which is currently listed tops in Nigeria and one of the best in Africa received her largest endowment ever reported to be in the realm of hundreds of millions of dollars. While unconfirmed reports have it that the recent endowment is from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the IMF under its new Managing Director, Kristalina Georgieva has chosen CU as the Nigerian venue for the celebration of IMF’s 75th Anniversary in July 2020. IMF, United Nations and the World bank have also made commitments to begin to employ staff fresh from CU annually. IMF was in CU recently on a visit. The Bishop had declared in one of his sermons recently that very soon and before Jesus comes, Living Faith Church will be richer than the IMF and the World Bank. IMF is currently worth about $850 billion.

And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.

VISION 1 OF 10 IN 10:
A PROPHETIC VERDICT ON THE VERGE OF FULFILLMENT
*Step by Step tracking of Bishop David Oyedepo’s Covenant University Prophecy

By Leke Beecroft

In June 2012 during the graduation of the 7th set of Eagles, Dr David Oyedepo announced‘Vision 1 of 10 in 10’. This vision stated that CU would become one of the top 10 universities in the world by 2022.

The vision sounded impossible. There was so much negativity against private universities in Nigeria. As for public universities, various governments both federal and state had struggled endlessly with numerous challenges such as staff remuneration, equipment, funding and the likes which had led to incessant strikes. It was thus a tall dream for a young university to even dare to dream of the kind of thing the Chancellor was bringing out of his mouth.

What pedigree did she have to declare such? Consistently and for many years, no Nigerian university was listed among the top 1000 in the world by any parameters or rankings whether webometrics or even the more prestigious Times Higher Ranking.
This was not a construction of another 50,000 capacity auditorium which bragging rights he still had, this was a statement from the village of Ota challenging the Harvards, Oxfords, Yales and Cambridges that had held sway for over a century.. Even the Prophet/Chancellor’s bravest followers believed he had overplayed his hand finally this time.

In 2010, Covenant emerged at 94th position among Africa's top 100 universities with a 10th position in Nigeria and has not looked back ever since.

2012
At the time the vision was mooted in 2012, Covenant University ranked about 6000th.
CU also emerged among the top 20 in Nigeria and more, she sat pretty at 7,730 in one of the major university rankings. Declaring that she would be among the top 10 within 10 years therefore sounded like a pipedream. Even a ranking within the top 1000 seemed a joke.

By 2013, CU shot up to become one of the top 25 universities in Africa behind University of Ibadan in Nigeria and 4,289 on the Webometrics world ranking.
The top 10 Ranking of Nigerian Universities for 2013 according to Answers Africa also showed the following:

1. OAU, Ile-Ife
2. FUNAAB, Abeokuta
3. Unilag, Akoka
4. UNN, Nsukka
5. Unilorin, Ilorin
6. UI, Ibadan
7. ABU, Zaria
8. Auchi Polytechnic, Auchi
9. Uniben, Benin
10. CU, Ota

While the international stage had taken note of Covenant University, locally, it was taking some time to recognize the greatness emanating from within. This trend has continued.

2014
Covenant University remained 25th in Africa and 2nd in Nigeria in July 2014. This time, Nigeria’s ranking body finally took notice.
That same 2014, the CU ranking was 6,178 on Times Higher Ranking. However, it had improved and stood at 2,253 on Webometrics. Slowly and steadily CU had stood out. On the local scene, she had remained the leading private university consistently for 11 years and the second ranked university (Public or Private) consistently for 5 years.

In terms of infrastructure, CU ranked easily with the likes of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) but with much better funding and maintenance. Another major move by CU was the enrichment of her library. With one of the most furnished and updated libraries in an African university, she has maintained the standard of Harvard by ensuring a minimum of 10,000 books and other literature come in to her inventory annually while still operating a very vibrant online library.

On Tuesday 10 Feb 15, Webometrics rated CU as 15th in Africa and 1st in both Nigeria and West Africa. She was also rated 1401 globally. For the first time, she was ranked among the top 1,500 of over 19,000 higher institutions globally.
The list top 10 universities in Nigeria with their African and World Rankings as well as Africa's Top 15 in 2015 are shown below:

1. Covenant University Ota-15-1401

2. Obafemi Awolowo University-21-1791

3. University of Ibadan-34-2310

4. University of Lagos-43-2597

5. University of Ilorin-45-2742

6. University of Agriculture Abeokuta-64-3424

7. Ahmadu Bello University-67-3599

8. Federal University of Technology Akure-73-3872.

9. Landmark University-78-4022

10. University of Nigeria-82-4100.

AFRICA'S TOP 15-2015

1, University of Cape Town-328
2. Stellenbosch University-462
3. Cairo University-474
4. University of Pretoria-494
5. University of the Witwatersrand-563
6. University of Kwazulu Natal-830
7. University of Nairobi -855
8. University of the Western Cape-1022
9. American University in Cairo-1050
10. University of South Africa-1074
11. Mansoura University-1167
12. University of Johannesburg-1178
13. Makerere University-1213
14. Rhodes University-1341
15. Covenant University Ota-1401......

In 2016, CU finally moved into the top 1000 Universities in the world. She was effectively within the top 800 in 2017 and by 2018, her ranking had reached 637 which was amazing by all standards.

The year 2019 has been awesome for the young university. After scrutiny of CU alongside over 1,400 other institutions, against 13 performance indicators across the areas of Teaching, Research, Knowledge Transfer and International Outlook, the balance of power in global higher education is shifting, with CU now Ranked in the 401-500 bracket.

Based on 13 performance indicators, CU has also been ranked in the 151-200 bracket in the just released Timeshighereducation.co.uk #YoungUniversityRankings 2019. This ranking focuses on world best Universities that are 50 years old or younger, with insitutions from 60 countries featuring in this edition.

Since the unveiling of Vision 10:2022 back in 2012, CovenantUniversity research output has seen a 906.36% geometric increase. This is a testament of an evolving culture, from solely a teaching institution to a research oriented citadel of learning. CU has consequently attracted grants, won awards and recorded upward movement in virtually all ranking parameters of notable ranking agencies around the world.

Below is the present table as released recently by Times Higher Education:
1. Western University 201-250
2. Stellenbosch University 251-300
3. Aswan University-401-500
4. Covenant University-401-500
5. University of Kwazulu Natal-401-500
6. Mansoura University-401-500
7. The University of West Indies-501-600
8. University of Ibadan-501-600

Not only that, CU is now the undisputed best private university in Africa. Last year, it held a joint position with American university of Cairo. But AUC slipped down by 200 while Covenant rose 200 places. It is also the youngest university in top 5 Africa.
Professor Remi Atayero the incumbent Vice-Chancellor under the leadership of the Chancellor is relentless in the pursuit of the prophetic vision to be head and shoulders among the best in a very short while.

In 2016, CU finally moved into the top 1000 Universities in the world. She was effectively within the top 800 in 2017 and by 2018, her ranking had reached 637 which was amazing by all standards.

The year 2019 has been awesome for the young university. After scrutiny of CU alongside over 1,400 other institutions, against 13 performance indicators across the areas of Teaching, Research, Knowledge Transfer and International Outlook, the balance of power in global higher education is shifting, with CU now Ranked in the 401-500 bracket.

Based on 13 performance indicators, CU has also been ranked in the 151-200 bracket in the just released Timeshighereducation.co.uk #YoungUniversityRankings 2019. This ranking focuses on world best Universities that are 50 years old or younger, with insitutions from 60 countries featuring in this edition.

Since the unveiling of Vision 10:2022 back in 2012, #CovenantUniversity research output has seen a 906.36% geometric increase. This is a testament of an evolving culture, from solely a teaching institution to a research oriented citadel of learning. CU has consequently attracted grants, won awards and recorded upward movement in virtually all ranking parameters of notable ranking agencies around the world.

Below is the present table as released recently by Times Higher Education:
1. Western University 201-250
2. Stellenbosch University 251-300
3. Aswan University-401-500
4. Covenant University-401-500
5. University of Kwazulu Natal-401-500
6. Mansoura University-401-500
7. The University of West Indies-501-600
8. University of Ibadan-501-600

Not only that, CU is now the undisputed best private university in Africa. Last year, it held a joint position with American university of Cairo. But AUC slipped down by 200 while Covenant rose 200 places. It is also the youngest university in top 5 Africa.
Professor Remi Atayero the incumbent Vice-Chancellor under the leadership of the Chancellor is relentless in the pursuit of the prophetic vision to be head and shoulders among the best in a very short while.

Do you really understand my input? whatever makes the purpose of buisness is not what I veer against but the mode of pricing in an open capitalist market.

You simply don't price for the sole purpose of production but on market force which are base on many factors which is not excluded to competitive market, time cost , production capacity. this are what you factor in before pricing not simply the production cost.
Vaxx don't go academic on me please. The simple reason why people do business is to Profit.

Actually there is serious misconception on your view of buisness here. in business, there are lots that goes into it. you factor in cost of service which include stuff as labor, material, and shipping.. if this are included on a product. some product like indomie that is manufactured in ota and ship to sokoto will not be justify for 50 naira since the cap price will exceed such amount. so there is always a reason for a cut price. in capitalism, price are determined by market forces rather than fixed levelised costs and marginal pricing not based on actual amount of production.


Anyway , i am never a supporter of capitalism but i suspect you defend it wrongly here which made me ship in.
Lol you are still talking stories. The only reason why people do business is to actually legally dupe you by giving you something and collecting more for it. That's the foundational philosophy of business and it isn't bad actually.

Making money is what motivates man to exploration and innovation. Lol you think Berkshire Hathaway gave Apple investment for charity sake? Lol in manufacturing when private equity coys give you money it is because they know you can make 1000% profit. Look at banks, you give them your money to store, they use it to do business and give you next to nothing. If you know the margin to which companies profiteer you would understand that capitalism is the real extortion not religion.

I thought people said Oyedepo is a businessman, now he's being compared to a businessman and people are angry. Nawa o!
I see so many people have mystified the success of the white man. Deep down many feel insulted that I am comparing Oyedepo to who they think is a White man. Anyway the write up is my opinion people are free to interpret whatever.

Oyedepo and Steve jobs
Religious leaders/preacher and technological innovator
Author and inventor
Making disciples of men and making technology used by disciples of men
Minus 500 million dollars vs plus 1 trillion dollars.
Living and dead (yet the dead no dey like person wey Neva die)
Living faith church international and Apple inc
Ogun state conglomerate and world known conglomerate

The man revolutionized the tech industry and you have him to thank for the touchscreen styled phone that you must be using as the iPhone started that concept.

Oyedepo on the other hand just preaches like the hundreds of thousands if not million of pastors that we have already today.
Wrong again. Actually IBM invented touchscreen phone with the IBM Simon in 1993. You aren't talking to a novice sir. And even if it was invented under Apple, it's not necessarily creditable to Jobs but most likely the engineering department or R&grin department of Apple.

In the real sense Apple doesn't even produce her own technology. Until recently it uses many of Samsung's touchscreen components. It uses other components from Qualcomm and has a long list of 600 suppliers of different component.

Following that, Apple ships her component to Foxconn and Pergatron, two Taiwanese companies in China and produce her phones with cheap labor of $2/hour. Many foxconn laborers have committed suicide because of overwork.

Look, what Steve Jobs built was a name and a brand. Hence the comparison. The value of Apple isn't in invention. Apple hasn't benefited humanity either, beyond increasing profit for her shareholders and a living salary for her 44,000 staff. Don't make it seem like they found the cure for Aids or something.

Steve Jobs was a weird man, he believed not showering would help him cure cancer at the initial stage when he could have just gone do treatment.

Steve Jobs also changed the world while oyedepo recycled the same old stuff.
Interesting. Explain how jobs changed the world and Oyedepo recycled the same old stuff.

People did not dash Steve jobs money to escape hell or poverty. That was not how he made his money.

Steve had to leave the company he created one time. Maa hia say oyedepo leave his church to go create another one.
Steve Job never left his company. He was fired by by the board of directors led by Sculley who he employed some time ago. And by the way, Steve jobs once defrauded his cofounder Steve Wozniack so don't even go there.

Actually, my school of thought is this. Everyone can be proven to be a thief. Capitalism in some ways can be said to be legal theft because what you pay is almost always exceeding what you bought in value. There's a reason you never see Indomie display "produced for N15 but sold at N50". If your cost of production is N15, is selling to me at 50 not wrong?
If the govt where to pass a law for companies to declare cost of production alongside selling price many people will never buy again because they would feel cheated.

Oyedepo's system is fairer, he preaches to you(which is a service) and he allows you to determine the value you want to pay for it. If his impact in your life equates N5 you give him N5 if it equates N1 million you give him. No cheating.
