Okowa mourns Bishop Emuobor, condoles CAN

Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta on Monday condoled the Christian community and Urhobo nation in Delta on the passing away of popular cleric, Bishop Diamond Emuobor.

Bishop Emuobor, who is Presiding Bishop, President and Founder of Trinity Gospel Mission, Ughelli, reportedly died on Saturday night at 76.

The Governor said that the renowned cleric's demise was shocking because there was no report that he was sick before the incident.

He said in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Olisa Ifeajika in Asaba, that Emuobor's death was a huge loss to the Christian community in Delta and the nation, especially for his vibrant teachings and his wise counsels at all times.

He commiserated with the family, Christian Association of Nigeria, Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, Okpe kingdom and the entire Urhobo nation on the demise of the renowned preacher.

The governor urged them to be consoled by the legacies of integrity and sound biblical teachings that the deceased espoused, working in the Lord's vineyard until his final breathe.

He assured the family and the Trinity Gospel Mission of the support and prayers of his family, Delta Government and people of the state at this trying period.

"It is with great sadness that I, my family, the government and people of Delta commiserate with the Christian community, the Emuobor family and the entire Urhobo nation on the passing away of Septuagenarian cleric Bishop Diamond Emuobor.

"He was a strong voice in the Christian community where he bestrode like a colossus in God's army, teaching the word of God without fear or favour.

"His death no doubt is a great loss not just to his family and the Trinity Gospel Mission but to our state and country nation. His teachings and support to governance will be evidently missed.

"I recall with gratitude his contributions to my election and his outstanding voice on national issues.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with his family, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and members of Trinity Gospel Mission that the soul of the deceased repose peacefully and the family given the fortitude to bear his demise," the governor said.

Popular? I dont know him

Yemike:
What I don't understand is.. "Is it a must to go to that building called church.

I once heard a pastor saying the building is just mere block and concrete that humans (the worshippers) are the church.

Why is it so hard for the pastors to comply with the sit at home order

Because we have more foolish pastors in Nigeria... No suprise!

tonididdy:
Ok Mr Governor I respect you so much.



But this is outright lies, for the first time in 4years you Mr Governor is clueless.
Edo has no plans for the covid19 pandemic. I am from and live in the state. So I know what I'm saying.
I have always tot of obaseki as smart but this pandemic has shown a weak side of him unless maybe he is down with the virus himself.

Edo needs more actions.

I cant agree less... The governor has exhibited a high level of cluelessness.... He fears a lockdown in the state could affect his election(cos the common man on the street will raise their voice... Typical of illiterate Nigerians).
Edo state amongst southern states has the lowest level of compliance to anti-covid 19 spread measures. Obaseki's task force chase people from the market with a claim that they want to ensure social distance, move them into empty fields without ensuring social distance compliance... Traders still cluster in body to body proximity in the new trading grounds. Obaseki has never gone round local govts to see if compliance is being implemented.
No face masks yet people move freely...

Melinda Gates wasnt wrong afterall... AFRICA SHOULD GET READY FOR BODY BAGS.... God help us. Amen

No wonder lagos has highest cases.... Trust yoruba man and mess... Lol

Fani Kayode sounds stupid to me most times cos instead of sticking with his politicking he has decided to become a pseudo- johnson suleiman... But watch him once the 5G is released most of them will be the 1st to use it... When they mow discover how they have being basking in their folly just to create headlines.

Where is everyone here.... How is life after this 7years? I believe we all have 1 or 2 things to thank God for?

Does the gratitude to God warrant exposure of her flat breasts

From National Grid, No! From Solar tech, Yea!

I purposely registered a new name because of this story so that many people especially potential husbands can learn from this. I'll like to narrate the story in details so I want you to follow me.

It all started in 2011 when my brother got a contract job in Abuja. Then he met this lady when he went to our home town during a leave but she told him immediately that she can't date him because she's short but he kept persuading her as usual.

As time goes on she started crying that she is unable to pay her 300k school fees because her father is dead and her mum is not buoyant enough to continue the payment and she may withdraw as a result of this. So he offered to sponsor her education from 200level till she graduated and she agreed to date and later married her in 2014.

To make the long story short, he later got her and her two siblings well paid federal government job through his office and later got her a car. Less I forget that their marriage produced two children (a boy and a girl) in five years.

Unfortunately for him his contract job was terminated three months ago and he decided to give her 200k so that they can manage it for four months for food stuff and house keep but she told him that the money has been exhausted after two weeks. This caused a little quarrel and she decided to leave the house with both children and went to spend the week in a hotel.

This spark an annoyance of my family members and we decided to send two of our elderly brothers to her mum in our home town but the woman started sparking that she didn't wanted to marry him in the first place because he's short but she was the one that persuaded her to marry him.

They later had another quarrel last month and the lady took the children to her mum in the home town through a flat without informing the husband and any of our family member. So we decided not to call her and a court letter was issued to him for request of termination of the marriage.

Now the marriage is terminated and my brother is seriously depressed.

I really learnt a lot of lesson from this.

Ending the marriage is normal for Nigerian Ladies but going with the kids? I will send somebody to heaven even if it means Jail..

Ok

I condemn "yahoo" in all its ramification.. I do not mind being the odd moral one out.... There is unemployment yes! But its no justification for cyber-crime.
The government needs to wake up to responsibility of fighting against this anomaly. It is fast eating the Nigerian reputation up!.

Nothing is confidential on the internet. The INTERNET itself started as a US Department of Defense project.

The surest thing to do in this age is to stay away from crime and be sure you're transparent.

Everyone is under the radar...

this is the only valid comment

Divorce looming... Marriage is not unbreakable in these churches.

ThothHermes:
I keep asking, how can they possibly know that this exact spot was were Jesus was buried

It is likelier that some people just picked a strategic spot and began to call it the burial place of Jesus to enable tourism. Too much time has passed and many things have happened for anyone to believe this.

History tells us that Israelis became to give towns and cities Hebrew names after the creation of present day Israel so how could they have known the exact spot the famous Rabbi was buried?

I think it's a scam.

No pranks...
The Catholic church is 2000+yrs old and has always preserved tradition and history all through the ages ...if Peter knew where his master was buried why wouldnt his followers... If you are to exist in 1000 years to come are you going to ask "how did Nigerians know that Tafawa Balewa was the 1st PM or how did they know the 1st storey building in Nigeria was situated at Badagry?

Ladyhippolyta88:
Thank you so much for this

Chioma dont let this one decieve you o. Even the bible says: a woman shud submit to her husband.... The tussle for supremacy is the reason for so many divorce today... E. G tonto dike and co.

ShyWhale:
My reservations about moving to the UK

- I hate being at the mercy of others. Going to the UK on a spousal permit means losing my German residency and I'll be at her mercy. As should anything go wrong with the relationship , I'll have to leave the UK.

- Getting a professional job. It doesn't make sense to go to the UK and continue to be trapped in menial jobs. I have been there and I hardly see Nigerians in professional jobs except those with rich parents. Someone should advice me on that as it could not be a real reflection.


My Reservations about Nigeria


- High rate of startup failure
- Difficulty in getting loans to expand. I have heard they can ask for even your neck in those times. With a lack of collateral, more difficult.


For those asking about my course, Yes it's a STEM degree.

Should i remain in heaven or relocate to hell?
Please answer yourself

shadeyinka:
You are misunderstanding her.
She never condoned sin

She says "if the Holy Spirit doesn't convict you of sin if you do, you are never born again in the first place".

Let me ask you a direct question:
When does a Christian loose his salvation?

Answer: known to God best, however sin does diminishes our relationship with God and enhances it with the devil. Thereby we of our own free will to sin, drift away from his grace.

shadeyinka:
Sometimes overzealousness will make us negate the scriptures to our own peril.

The implication of what you just wrote is this
1. The sacrifice of Christ and his blood is powerless to save completely. Christians have to augment the work of Christ by works
2. We are saved by works through faith in Jesus Christ.

If anyone be in Christ, such has become a NEW creature (not a washed sinner but a sinner completely TRANSFORMED into a saint). If you find anyone who claims to be saved but enjoys SIN, such might NEVER have been saved in the first place.

You know what Jesus said, "By their Fruit, you shall know them"...does anyone reap mangoes from weed?

Yours is a doctrine of partial salvation!
You believe that Christ only saved us halfway! Is this the scripture?

So what are you saying... That once you become a christian by faith.... You can continue sinning and wont loose grace?

Are certificates still relevant to make a living in this country.... Who get no get work... Dont you think this is a blessing in disguise?

They stole so much from Edo state. Put many teachers out of work, sent many pensioners to their early grave... Embezzled funds without restriction... This is all I have to say.
@ Lucky Igbins happy new year Mr Ex Gov

Person mama. I pity her son..... Son will grow up seeing mama's nudies in online archives....

Binikingdowm:
Oshiomole only charm and luck is that he's an Edo man.remove oshiomole from APC and it will die.

For PDP to win buhari this February, it need to bring a core Edo man(Benin,esan axis).

If not oshiomole will retire Obasanjo,atiku, saraki,damjuma and many others.

. See your smelly mouty like Benin -esan axis...

I saw somebody up there say we are all zombies... I wont deny that. Because come Feb 16th... Buhari shall be declared winner and all we go do na to start another 4years of social media ranting...
