CHRIS GREEN MUST APOLOGISE TO TB JOSHUA
Posted on Friday 14 October 2011 - 17:59

Chairman of Technical Committee of the NFF, Chris Green recently called Prophet T.B. Joshua unpatriotic because of the prophecy he spoke, revealing that Nigeria would lose the AFCON qualifying match with Guinea and asking Nigeria to come together with him to pray for God's intervention.

Question: How can you call someone who gives a warning of impending danger to your country, unpatriotic?

Consider the SSS. Didn't the government of Nigeria task them with the job of seeking out those incidents and individuals that can cause problem in the country and warn us of the potential danger? We can hardly call that unpatriotic!

The FBI was issuing statements of imminent terror attacks on the US just before the 9/11 strike on the US and warnings to be on guard. Was the FBI acting unpatriotically in trying to save the nation?

Before the London subway bombings, Scotland Yard issued statements and alerts at all subway stations to be on the look out for suspicious looking individuals and packages at the stations. Was Scotland Yard acting unpatriotically in trying to protect their citizens?

During the royal wedding in London, Scotland Yard issued warnings about possible anarchy and/or terrorist attacks against Prince William and Kate Middleton earlier this year. Can you say they are unpatriotic for protecting their monarchy? Do you not try to protect your kings, no matter the size of their reign?

The SSS issued warnings and precautions during Nigeria's 50th Anniversary just before the bombing which took place metres from the president’s location. Were they acting unpatriotic in trying to save the lives of the president and the nation?
Would you not have loved to hear warnings before the UN office in Abuja was attacked and many lives lost? Would you not have loved to hear warnings before Police Headquarters was attacked and our security forces were killed? Would you not love to save the lives of your fellow Nigerians

Meteorologists and geologists survey weather patterns constantly and warn the public about coming storms, earthquakes, hurricanes. Is it unpatriotic to advise people to prepare for storms, to evacuate their homes to escape death from wildfires, to pack their belongings to dry ground so they do not lose their life’s work or belongings?

When the earthquake hit Japan, didn’t the entire international community come out and attack the scientists for NOT informing them beforehand of the epic disaster that came? What is unpatriotic then, NOT informing your countrymen of impending danger and allowing them to suffer, or ALERTING your countrymen so they can be prepared and save their lives/reputations/future?

What are you talking about Chris Green? If that is in fact your REAL NAME? Patriotism = desire, determination, effort to protect and save the lives, reputation, livelihood and self-respect of your nation. Prophet T.B. Joshua = Patriotism to God and his country. He asked God to show him what was to come in our country, he alerted us of the impending disaster, he asked us to join him in trying to change the outcome. Chairman Green, WHAT DID YOU DO? What NAME do we give YOU?


Chairman Green, Nigeria has spoken:
You have 7 days to issue an apology for your statements regarding Prophet T.B. Joshua.
Nigeria's patriots are waiting.

Nigerian Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), will visit Israel next week and meet the Prime Minister and President.
The RCCG claims to have churches in more than 100 countries, and Adeboye was named one of the world's 50 most powerful people by Newsweek in 2008.

Deputy Minister Ayoub Kara returned to Israel Wednesday after a visit to Nigeria, which was intended to encourage support for Israel in next month’s scheduled Arab attempt to declare the Palestinian Authority as an independent country.

Kara spoke on Monday with Nigeria's president Dr. Goodluck Jonathan and leaders of two other African nations, asking for support for Israel. In early September, Kara will return to Africa for a visit to Uganda and South Sudan.

Kara was accompanied in Africa by Samaria local authority chief Gershon Mesika and the Shomron Liaison Bureau's David Ha'ivri. Mesika will be hosting Adeboye in Samaria next week. "The Africans received us very enthusiastically we discovered great potential for support for Israel, with regard to September and with regard to trade cooperation as well," said Ha'ivri.

Druze Likud Knesset Member Ayoub Kara and Jewish leaders from Samaria are in Nigeria to promote trade and encourage support for Israel in next month’s scheduled Arab attempt to declare the Palestinian Authority as a country, based on its territorial demands.

MK Kara, a deputy minister, spoke on Monday with Nigeria's president Dr. Goodluck Jonathan and leaders of two other African nations asking for support for Israel.

Leading African pastor Enoch Adeboye, who has been noted by Newsweek as one of the 50 most influential men in the world, received the Israeli delegation.

Adeboye is scheduled to visit Israel next week and will meet with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and also tour the Shomron (Samaria) as a personal guest of its Regional Council head, Gershon Mesika.

The pastor is followed by millions of people in Africa and around the world. He has been very clear in expressing his beliefs that that they should support the Jewish people and that the Land of Israel should not be divided.

Gershon Mesika spoke at an International Strategic Alliance Committee conference on developing trade agreements between Shomron industries and African countries.

He said that Jewish businesses in Samaria can supply knowledge, services and products for developing African countries. Trade arrangements between African nations and Jewish firms in Judea and Samaria would help further erase threats of international boycotts and disinvestments against Israel.

The potential market in Africa is much greater than the other international markets that might boycott products manufactured in Judea and Samaria, noted David Ha’Ivri, head of the Shomron Liaison Office.

The International Strategic Alliance Committee has said that Nigeria is a key player in sub Saharan Africa and has resources to offer major western economies and the rest of the developed world.

I was shocked this afternoon at the sight I witnessed at the boarding gate for an Arik Air flight from Lagos, Nigeria. A very large group of exhausted, irritated, unkempt looking international passengers were trying to get information about their flight. They looked like they hadn’t slept in days. I was catching another flight at a different gate but I had to stop and ask them what had happened.

One tired gentleman told me that they had been at the airport since 9pm the night before, in order to catch their flight to South Africa at 11pm. However, when they came to the boarding gate, they were not allowed to enter the plane. They were not sure what the cause of the problem was and were not given any information by Arik staff. They were simply told not to leave the boarding gate area. So they sat down thinking the delay would last an hour or two and they would be on their way home. The hours dragged by.

Arik Air did not provide them with any answers, nor did they offer them hotel vouchers so they could wait comfortably for the next available flight, nor did they find them accommodation at the airport, nor did they provide meals for them or even snacks or drinking water. There is no toilet in the boarding gate area so there was no place for them to even go to the restroom or freshen up. They were not even given access to the lounge area so that they could rest. Only a few of them could find seats, the rest were sitting in their business suits on the floor.

This is how over 200 international passengers were held against their will without information, without assistance, without even food or water for more than 15 hours! It should also be noted that these TWO HUNDRED PASSENGERS were international passengers, meaning they were in a foreign country so there was no option to go back to their homes and wait for their flight information. They had no home there and had been prevented from going home for reasons unknown to them.

It is required of every airline to provide current, up to date information to their passengers. When there is a delay that is not due to the fault of the passenger, arrangements are to be made such as hotel vouchers, meal tickets, beverages and especially access to complete bathrooms!!! These passengers are human beings – not cattle! Yet they were treated without due respect.

This is not the first time Arik Air has behaved in a criminal matter. Many friends and associates have recounted stories of abuse at the hands of Arik Air. One business partner had his wallet taken from his seat pocket while he slept and $2,000 removed from it by an Arik staffer. He was the lone passenger in his row with an empty row both in front of him and behind him. The only one that could have bent over him while sleeping and been unnoticed would be the flight staff. A sister company of ours sent a team on retreat and when they arrived at their destination, the luggage for the entire flight had been left behind at the airport and there was no announcement made on board the plane before takeoff. But how can an airline leave all of the luggage on the tarmac and not load it before taking off?? That is incredulous! I believe if an inquiry is made, many more grievances, even worse than these, will be discovered.

While I was discussing with the man, an Arik staff appeared and announced the flight was now running and would be taking the TWO HUNDRED PASSENGERS to their destination. When prodded for the reason for the delay, the staffer reluctantly informed them that the delay was a lack of fuel in the plane!

This is outrageous and completely unacceptable. They have abused their position as an airline and their directors, managers and staff are not fit to run something so sensitive as an airline. We place our lives in the hands of airlines every day, trusting them to carry us safely from one location to another with our lives, our luggage and our decency in tact. Arik Air violates all of these trusts. Serious action should be taken to prevent our citizens from finding themselves trapped and abused at the hands of Arik Air.

One tired gentleman told me that they had been at the airport since 9pm the night before, in order to catch their flight to South Africa at 11pm. However, when they came to the boarding gate, they were not allowed to enter the plane. They were not sure what the cause of the problem was and were not given any information by Arik staff. They were simply told not to leave the boarding gate area. So they sat down thinking the delay would last an hour or two and they would be on their way home. The hours dragged by.

Arik Air did not provide them with any answers, nor did they offer them hotel vouchers so they could wait comfortably for the next available flight, nor did they find them accommodation at the airport, nor did they provide meals for them or even snacks or drinking water. There is no toilet in the boarding gate area so there was no place for them to even go to the restroom or freshen up. They were not even given access to the lounge area so that they could rest. Only a few of them could find seats, the rest were sitting in their business suits on the floor.

This is how over 200 international passengers were held against their will without information, without assistance, without even food or water for more than 15 hours! It should also be noted that these TWO HUNDRED PASSENGERS were international passengers, meaning they were in a foreign country so there was no option to go back to their homes and wait for their flight information. They had no home there and had been prevented from going home for reasons unknown to them.

It is required of every airline to provide current, up to date information to their passengers. When there is a delay that is not due to the fault of the passenger, arrangements are to be made such as hotel vouchers, meal tickets, beverages and especially access to complete bathrooms!!! These passengers are human beings – not cattle! Yet they were treated without due respect.

This is not the first time Arik Air has behaved in a criminal matter. Many friends and associates have recounted stories of abuse at the hands of Arik Air. One business partner had his wallet taken from his seat pocket while he slept and $2,000 removed from it by an Arik staffer. He was the lone passenger in his row with an empty row both in front of him and behind him. The only one that could have bent over him while sleeping and been unnoticed would be the flight staff. A sister company of ours sent a team on retreat and when they arrived at their destination, the luggage for the entire flight had been left behind at the airport and there was no announcement made on board the plane before takeoff. But how can an airline leave all of the luggage on the tarmac and not load it before taking off?? That is incredulous! I believe if an inquiry is made, many more grievances, even worse than these, will be discovered.

While I was discussing with the man, an Arik staff appeared and announced the flight was now running and would be taking the TWO HUNDRED PASSENGERS to their destination. When prodded for the reason for the delay, the staffer reluctantly informed them that the delay was a lack of fuel in the plane!

This is outrageous and completely unacceptable. They have abused their position as an airline and their directors, managers and staff are not fit to run something so sensitive as an airline. We place our lives in the hands of airlines every day, trusting them to carry us safely from one location to another with our lives, our luggage and our decency in tact. Arik Air violates all of these trusts. Serious action should be taken to prevent our citizens from finding themselves trapped and abused at the hands of Arik Air.

Arik Air violates all of these trusts. Serious action should be taken to prevent our citizens from finding themselves trapped and abused at the hands of Arik Air.

Arik Air Held Passengers Hostage

I was shocked this afternoon at the sight I witnessed at the boarding gate for an Arik Air flight from Lagos, Nigeria. A very large group of exhausted, irritated, unkempt looking international passengers were trying to get information about their flight. They looked like they hadn’t slept in days. I was catching another flight at a different gate but I had to stop and ask them what had happened.

One tired gentleman told me that they had been at the airport since 9pm the night before, in order to catch their flight to South Africa at 11pm. However, when they came to the boarding gate, they were not allowed to enter the plane. They were not sure what the cause of the problem was and were not given any information by Arik staff. They were simply told not to leave the boarding gate area. So they sat down thinking the delay would last an hour or two and they would be on their way home. The hours dragged by.

Arik Air did not provide them with any answers, nor did they offer them hotel vouchers so they could wait comfortably for the next available flight, nor did they find them accommodation at the airport, nor did they provide meals for them or even snacks or drinking water. There is no toilet in the boarding gate area so there was no place for them to even go to the restroom or freshen up. They were not even given access to the lounge area so that they could rest. Only a few of them could find seats, the rest were sitting in their business suits on the floor.

This is how over 200 international passengers were held against their will without information, without assistance, without even food or water for more than 15 hours! It should also be noted that these TWO HUNDRED PASSENGERS were international passengers, meaning they were in a foreign country so there was no option to go back to their homes and wait for their flight information. They had no home there and had been prevented from going home for reasons unknown to them.

It is required of every airline to provide current, up to date information to their passengers. When there is a delay that is not due to the fault of the passenger, arrangements are to be made such as hotel vouchers, meal tickets, beverages and especially access to complete bathrooms!!! These passengers are human beings – not cattle! Yet they were treated without due respect.

This is not the first time Arik Air has behaved in a criminal matter. Many friends and associates have recounted stories of abuse at the hands of Arik Air. One business partner had his wallet taken from his seat pocket while he slept and $2,000 removed from it by an Arik staffer. He was the lone passenger in his row with an empty row both in front of him and behind him. The only one that could have bent over him while sleeping and been unnoticed would be the flight staff. A sister company of ours sent a team on retreat and when they arrived at their destination, the luggage for the entire flight had been left behind at the airport and there was no announcement made on board the plane before takeoff. But how can an airline leave all of the luggage on the tarmac and not load it before taking off?? That is incredulous! I believe if an inquiry is made, many more grievances, even worse than these, will be discovered.

While I was discussing with the man, an Arik staff appeared and announced the flight was now running and would be taking the TWO HUNDRED PASSENGERS to their destination. When prodded for the reason for the delay, the staffer reluctantly informed them that the delay was a lack of fuel in the plane!

This is outrageous and completely unacceptable. They have abused their position as an airline and their directors, managers and staff are not fit to run something so sensitive as an airline. We place our lives in the hands of airlines every day, trusting them to carry us safely from one location to another with our lives, our luggage and our decency in tact.

Wow, moderator, I can see that you follow Emmanuel TV and have a godly view towards the messages there. It is wonderful to see that people are listening to God’s servants in this generation and encouraging others with their message.

There is a point of correction, however, in the message you have posted. The Prophet mentioned the 17th but he did not clarify which month, either this month, next month, the upper month… He said:
“I’m seeing something 17th but I want to know, 17th of what month? When? How?”

Maybe next Sunday he will be more specific but for now, we cannot say which month. People will begin to fear. Airlines will not move then and passengers will not want to enter the plane. This can cause a problem.

He did NOT say that a plane crash would occur this week.

He said that we should pray. That we should not allow this to happen. He said:
“We will not allow that to happen. But in order for that not to happen, they have to listen. They have a role to play.” and “We are going to set up a prayer warrior…”

He did not say that this was an unchangeable event. He told us to pray so that God would hear our prayer.

The prophecy will be shown again on Emmanuel TV and is available on YouTube.

Please view the prophecy so that you can see the correct message. Also, please make the necessary changes to your posting so that it does not lead anyone astray or cause confusion in the country.

Other prophecies given by the Prophet, including the prophecy of the plane crash that claimed the lives of the President of Poland and several government officials, can be seen at: http://scoan.org/prophecy.htm.

The publisher of ENDTIME Journal International, a Christian journal, Dr. David Lucas, has said he was misled by one of his assistants (name withheld) over alleged malicious publication against prominent clergymen in the country.

He said this at a press conference at Faith Revival Assembly Church on Friday.
Lucas said, “Most of the reports were provided by one of my assistants. He told me he had revelation on some of the stories he provided to us. As a minister myself, I did not doubt him and we slammed them. With what is happening now, I can see that most of the reports were not real.

“I have decided to apologise to all those wronged in our reports. However, my vision from God since in my college days was to report the activities of the churches and unveil their doings. It is unfortunate the revelation turned out to be false. Right now, as I speak to you, he is cooling off his heals in police detention. He caused all the problems. I did not have to doubt his revelation since he is an apostle of Christ Apostolic Church in Egbeda, Lagos.”

He said inasmuch as most of the reports were not true, he insisted that some were real, but did not shed much on those he claimed were true.
He asked readers to discountenance most of the reports in the volume, saying that they were false.

The journal had in its vol. 14 numbers 6 and 9 alleged that some prominent ‘Men of God‘ were diabolical, occultic or randy.
The banal headlines of the journal reads, ‘Redeemed Church pastors plot against Adeboye,‘ ‘God‘s warning: Adeboye to start winding up,‘ Bishop Oyedepo, Oyakhilome, Olukoya, Obembe, Abiara, others may face God‘s wrath,‘ ‘T.B. Joshua faces God‘s condemnation,‘ and ‘Prophet Abiara kills his junior pastor,‘ among others.

• The bible says watch & pray that does not mean to should look at the physical only and abandon the things of the spirit. As a man of God, before u say or publish anything u pray and ask God to reveal that which is truth. Now you have mislead many people with your lies and made them believe you, may God have mercy and compassion on you and your socalled assistant. TB Joshua, please forgive all those who have said many evil things against you & other men of God.

Abu has too much time on your hands. While you are doing nothing this Sunday, why don't you visit his church for yourself and make a verified comment about the ministry rather than make things up or spin regurgitated nonsense. abeg.
