CrimeESN: Benue Not Part Of Biafra – Govt Warns Nnamdi Kanu by owukpa(op): 9:40pm On Mar 06, 2021
Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Eastern Security Network (ESN) have been warned to steer clear of Benue State.

This followed the recent threat by Kanu to send ESN members to protect Igbo people living in Benue.

Kanu identified Ado and Oju Local Government Areas as places that need the presence of ESN.

In his reaction, Ado Local Government admonished Kanu to stop dragging Benue into “his self-seeking campaign”.

The Chairman, James Oche, told reporters on Saturday that the territorial integrity of the state would never be a subject of Biafra agitation.

He cautioned proponents of Kanu’s “inordinate ideology” in Benue to desist or face the wrath of the law.

On the IPOB leader’s comment about the “abduction” of 3 people, Oche clarified that they were arrested in connection with the murder of an elderly Fulani man, Mohammed Isa.

“It was an act that threatened the security of the area and made the Deputy Governor summon a meeting that was held yesterday in Makurdi with all concerned stakeholders.

“Kanu reportedly issued statements charging Benue Governor to protect ‘IPOB communities’ or he would send Eastern Security Network operatives to do so. He should stop insulting the sensibilities of Benue people.”

The LG boss assured that Governor Samuel Ortom was doing his best in terms of security.

He advised the people to remain calm and support the governor’s commitment to the full implementation of the Anti Open Grazing Law.

PropertiesPoor Widow Living In Shanty House Gets 2-bedroom Bungalow From Good Samaritan by owukpa(op):
By Franklin Onwubiko

It was celebration galore in Ebenebe town in Awka North Local Government Area, Anambra state following the donation of 2-bedroom bungalow to widow, Mrs. Philomena Ubaka, a widow by a philanthropist, Mr. Arnold Chukwuebuka Ekweoba.

Mrs. Ubaka had until now been living with her children in a deplorable thatched hut until hope shone on her in 2017 when an NGO, ‘Restore a Radiant Smile Foundation’ met with her in one of their outreaches.

Handing over the key to Mrs. Ubaka on Friday, the benefactor and CEO, Arnold and Associates, a Real estate and construction firm, revealed that he had never met the woman until the day of the handover. In his words, “A Foundation approached me with the woman’s story sometime last year. I was moved to tears and instantly ministered to by the Holy Spirit to become an instrument of joy to this unknown woman. Immediately, I accepted the request and approved the construction of a befitting two-bedroom bungalow for the woman and her children.

“What we are doing here today is a divine call. I derive motivation in impacting lives positively. I have never met this family in my life and I’m grateful to God for using me to elevate their standard of living. Like I said earlier, this is a divine mandate and as the spirit directs, we would continue replicating these humanitarian efforts”.

Earlier in his remark during a courtesy call at his palace, the traditional ruler of Ebenebe Community, His Royal Majesty, Igwe Chris Emeka Nnaegbuna, described the benefactor’s gesture as uncommon. While appreciating Mr. Ekweoba, Igwe Nnaegbuna prayed to God to bless and elevate him to enviable heights.

The visibly elated Mrs. Ubaka was drowned in tears of joy as she danced alongside friends and well-wishers. Speaking to the Press, the widow who was dumbfounded showered praises and blessings on Mr. Ekweoba. “Today, I strongly re-affirm my belief in God. No time is late for God to bless anybody. Today, I am a living witness of God’s Miracle. I am short of words and all I can say is that God who remembers the widow will never forsake Mr. Arnold, his friends, and family.”

Also speaking, the facilitator of the project and partner with the ‘Restore a Radiant Smile Foundation’, Mr. Victor Ugwoegbu described the day’s event as fulfilling. According to him, “My partner, Mr. Victor Chinyeaka, and I were moved to tears seeing the deplorable state of the woman’s shelter during one of our outreaches in the state in 2017. We couldn’t believe that a human being will be sheltered in such a place. We didn’t have the wherewithal but we prayed God to grant us the opportunity to bring succor to this woman and her family. It became a burden and in mid-2020, I approached Mr. Arnold with the request and he instantly assured me that he would take up the project. Barely six months down the line, here we are. I cannot thank the benefactor enough. He is a young man whose love for humanity is unparalleled. I remain grateful and loyal to him”.

In their separate remarks, the Chairman, Umudiaba Kindred, Umuajana Village, Ebenebe, Mr. Maxwell Nnamso, and the widow’s son, Arinze Ubaka expressed gratitude to Mr. Ekweoba for becoming an instrument of God’s blessing to the family.

CrimeNnamdi Kanu To Send ‘biafra Soldiers’ To Benue by owukpa(op): 1:41pm On Mar 05, 2021
The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has said it would send its soldiers to protect their kinsmen and kinswomen in Benue State.

Leader of the outlawed group, Nnamdi Kanu said the decision became imperative following the worsening insecurity situation in the state.

IDOMA VOICE recalls that Dr. Terkula Suswam, a prominent politician and business man was recently assassinated in his home.

Kanu said if the killing continues, he would have no choice than too deploy operatives of Eastern Security Network, ESN, to the state.

The IPOB leader in a statement by spokesman of IPOB , Emma Powerful said."It has become very imperative that we the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), ably led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, bring to the attention of Gov. Samuel Ortom of Benue State how Fulani terrorists masquerading as herdsmen are terrorizing Igbo communities in his state. The unprovoked genocidal attacks by these murderous bands have intensified in the last one week.

"The world has to be aware of this atrocity which has persisted obviously because the Governor failed to rise to his responsibility of protecting lives and property of these innocent Igbo communities in his state.
"Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom must take responsibility for securing these communities or IPOB would move in our gallant Eastern Security Network, ESN operatives to do the needful.

"For weeks now the people are being terrorized by hooded Fulani military men on evil mission.
"We can never allow Fulani terrorists to decimate any Biafran community. We will no longer tolerate any unprovoked attack against our people irrespective of where they reside. Gov. Ortom must act now or ESN will rise to the occasion! ESN will launch a serious operation to chase the killer Fulani out of Benue if Gov Samuel Ortom cannot protect Igbo Biafrans living in Benue.

"The Benue government must as a matter of urgency ensure that the Chief of Ataloga and others abducted are released , and no harm befalls them , otherwise, ESN will unleash its venon in the state against the Fulani.

"Based on our findings, the worst hit of Fulani herdsmen attack is Ataloga community where men in military uniform kidnapped three innocent locals. The victims include Chief of the community, Mazi Boniface; IPOB Coordinator and the youth leader of Ndigwe community. Others including Chief Simon Nweke from Ndiighe in Ado LGA; and Patrick Nweke, Youth President of Ndiighe in Ado LGA.

"Other Igbo villages under siege now in Izi, Oju LGA of Benue State are: Edele village, Ogbala Izi village, Onyenu village, Obokata village, Ekpuphu village and Idele Izi village.

CareerCentre Hails Buhari For Nominating Bawa As EFCC Chair by owukpa(op): 10:06pm On Feb 18, 2021
The Centre for Anti-Corruption and Social Justice, CACSJ, has described the nomination of Abdulrasheed Bawa, as chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, as one of the best decisions taken so far by the current government.

Recall that President Muhammadu Buhari had forwarded the name of Bawa, 40, a certified fraud examiner to the Senate for confirmation as the boss of the anti-graft agency.

The centre said the appointment of Bawa is a round peg in a round hole, considering the antecedents of the youthful crime buster.
Addressing newsmen in Ibadan on Thursday, Coordinator of the group, Femi Stephen, said the Bawa’s appointment is a testament to the fact that President Buhari is keen on crushing corruption, which has eaten deep into the system.
He said, “We at the Centre for Anti-Corruption and Social Justice, CACSJ, an umbrella body of over 20 civil society organisations wish to thank President Muhammadu Buhari over the nomination of Abdulrasheed Bawa as chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
“You could recall that this coalition had sometime in 2019 shortly after the reelection of President Buhari, called on the federal government on the need to up its game in the fight against corruption ravaging the nation’s economy.

“We had equally called on the president to appoint a youth to pilot the affairs of the anti-graft agency.
“Today, we are happy that the president heeded to our calls and that of other well-meaning Nigerians by nominating not just a youth, but a renowned crime fighter of international repute.

“This is a clear indication that the APC-led government in keen on purging the system of every corrupt element.”
The group expressed confidence on Bawa, considering his past records in crime bursting. It added that the young man had fought and won many battles in the commission not minding who ox is gored.

He said, “With Bawa as head of the EFCC, Nigerians can be rest assured that every penny stolen by anybody irrespective of his/her status or connection must be recovered.

“He’s a tested and trusted Nigerian who has proven his mettle in anti-corruption war and with his experience, sanity will return to the system in no distant time.”
The centre also called on the senate not to delay in confirming Bawa as the new EFCC chairman so he could hit the ground running.
“We are calling on members of the Red Chamber of the national assembly to do the needful by confirming the nomination of Bawa as the head of the anti-graft agency.

“We also call on all Nigerians to join hands with the EFCC and the incoming leadership to win this war against the deadly virus called corruption.”
Bawa, a native of Kebbi State holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Economics and Masters Degree in International Affairs and Diplomacy.
He is a certified anti-money laundering specialist.

CrimeHerdsmen: ‘empty Brain With Big Grammar’ – Nnamdi Kanu Blasts Wole Soyinka by owukpa(op): 2:50pm On Feb 16, 2021
Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has slammed Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka, for allegedly forcing Buhari on Nigerians in 2015.



According to Kanu, Soyinka was among those who campaigned vigorously for the enthronement of Buhari in 2015.

Recall that suspected herdsmen last week invaded his house and ate up his vegetables.


Reacting, Kanu said people like Soyinka have been preaching one Nigeria and he’s now feeling the heat.


“What did Soyinka say? He said the war has come to worst. People don’t actually think properly, Soyinka is among the defenders of one Nigeria.

He spoke during an interactive section on Radio Biafra last night.

“It was Syoinka that helped to bring Buhari into power in the first place.

When we were telling him, he was busy speaking grammar. He was speaking English. After all the grammar, what happened? The war came to worst. Behind his big grammar is emptiness.

“His carrots were eaten up by Fulani cattle and he’s busy lamenting that they brought the war to his house.


“When he woke up and discovered that Fulani cattle have eaten his carrots and garbage, he started lamenting. This is what is called idiocy.”

EducationBenue State University Student, Jessica Agee Shot Dead by owukpa(op): 12:30pm On Feb 16, 2021
A female Student of Benue State University identified as Jessica Agee was shot dead by unidentified gunmen at her Gyado villa residence in Makurdi last night.

IDOMA VOICE reports that there were gunshots in the second campus of the university while final year students were taking their last paper on Monday.

According to an insider, the shooting was due to the ceasing of some exam slips belonging to suspected cultists who were taking their last paper in the Mass Communication department.

The source, who also sat for the exam, said some of the cultists came from outside the school and also celebrated the graduation of their members who are mostly members of the a popular confraternity with gunshots amidst chanting of ‘orientation’.

The graduating cultists, IDOMA VOICE gathered were promoted by virtue of their graduation to ‘Lords’ in the confraternity.

It took the timely intervention of the men of the Nigeria police for calmness to return to the campus.

But there were fears that rival cultists might later clash tonight in students’ lodges around Gyado Villa, Madam Saba, Opposite CHS, Behind Customary Court and other student dominated areas.

Eventually, the crisis crossed to Gyado Villa and Jessica was killed.

CrimeBiafra: Fulani Want To Wipe Out Igbo, Yoruba Tribes – Nnamdi Kanu by owukpa(op): 4:05pm On Feb 08, 2021
Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has stated that Fulani are hell bent on wiping out the entire Igbos and Yoruba from the face of earth.

He recalls that the Hausa had established well organised city states before the advent of the Fulani who are not indigenous to Nigeria.
According to him, the Fulanis came and made themselves Lords over the Hausas, who now work as their foot soldiers.
He said he founded the Eastern Security Network to fight against the plan to annihilate Igbo people.

He tweeted; The Hausa had established well organised city states before the advent of the Fulani who are not indigenous to Nigeria. These states include Katsina, Daura, Kano, Zazzau (Zaria), Biram & Gobir (now Sokoto). All of these were conquered and re-established by the Fulani as Emirates.
“Today Hausas are only used as foot soldiers by their lord & new masters the Fulani tribe. This is what Fulanis want to replicate in other parts of Nigeria & what #ESN was formed to stop. Sadly those who ignorantly believe in one Nigeria are aiding this relentless march of Fulanis.



“It all started with “allow us [Fulani] to graze our cattle on your land”. By the time they realised what was happening, it was already too late. Summary of how Fulani annihilated the Hausa Tribe. Exactly what they now are trying to do to #Biafrans & #Oduduwa.

Presiding Bishop of the Living Faith Church Worldwide has finally announced the long awaited mega church auditorium project to be carried out by the Church. He also announced the construction of a new Faith Academy which he stated would match any university in Nigeria in standards.

According to Bishop David Oyedepo a few minutes ago, he stated:

“We are commencing the 100,000 Capacity Ark Project very soon.
A new campus for Faith academy.
The students are resuming there tomorrow
A multi billion project
It (Faith Academy) will match any campus of any university in Nigeria”.

Church Gist had earlier reported that the project which had been delayed for a few years would be announced at Shiloh 2020, however Bishop chose to announce it unceremoniously today. The project is however already an open secret at Canaanland, Headquarters of the Living Faith Church.

Church Gist can authoritatively tell you that the project which according to the Bishop involves the demolition of the old Faith Academy as well as Word of Faith Bible Institute among other facilities will also include the transformation of 50,000 capacity (former largest world auditorium) Faith Tabernacle into an overflow facility while a 20 storey tower will also be constructed as the headquarters of the Church.

The 20 floor tower is to replace the initially planned 12 floor building which was to have been built with the initial Faith Theatre Project in 2015. The Living Faith Church had in the mid 90s constructed an 8 tower headquarter facility at the Raji Oba, Lagos Church known as Capernaum as well as a 5 storey tower at the cradle of the Church known as Garden of Faith, Barnawa, Kaduna.

The Living Faith Church (World Mission Agency) owned Covenant University also has an 8 storey tower Senate Building as well as another 8 floor research building known as CUCRID or the Covenant University Centre for Research, Innovation and Discovery.

No offering for the project will be raised for the massive project as the money said to be in tens of billions of naira had already been put aside after it was announced at Shiloh 2015 and committed worshippers gave towards it.

Church Gist will supply pictures and other information on the Legacy Project very soon and as at when due.

Christianity EtcPaul Enenche's 2021 Prophecies by owukpa(op): 11:57am On Jan 01, 2021
Dr. Paul Enenche, Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, has released his prophetic words for the year 2021.

Enenche prophesied that members of the church and those connected, related and associated will experience Release, Recovery and Replication in the New Year.

He made the disclosure during the crossover service held at the church’s headquarters, Glory Dome in Abuja on Friday morning and monitored by IDOMA VOICE.

The fiery cleric noted that despite the hiccups that accompanied the preceding year, the Lord has been faithful to Dunamis as a ministry.

He said the church witnessed drastic, dramatic and dimensional shifts in 2020 and hopes that 2021 will be a better year.

The theme for the year 2021 is Release, Recovery and Replication.

His words below.

Despite the challenges of 2020, we experienced Supernatural Shift in many ways. We shifted in dimension of words.

Messages and lines of messages we have never heard before came in 2020. Impact shifted. Individuals and communities got relief materials during the COVID-19 lockdown like we have never done since this church started.

No church service, no offering, yet, there was permanent flow of resources. You saw the Christmas welfare distribution? I am not aware of anywhere in the country where such massive level of distribution was done for people of all religions and ethnicities.

We saw churches planted. Structures built and dedicated. Five star building structures in rural areas. In 2020, people testified that the touched the kind of resources they have never touched before and that will happen in the year 2020.

I am glad to announce to you that from today, January 1, 2021, Dunamis TV entres full high definition of broadcast quality in terms of the neatness of what you see on CNN or SuperSport. Dunamis TV will blanket the entire globe by 2021.

As at yesterday 31 December, people still received appointment letters.

The question is, what is in 2021?

Note this: 2021 is the 21st year of the 21st century. It is 21 years now since the 21st century started. That is very implicative. Things don’t just happen by accident; there are prophetic significations to spiritual timings and seasons.

21 equals 777. Naaman the Syrian entered the water seven times and his flesh became clean. They marched round the wall of Jericho 7 times and the wall collapsed. We are face to face with seven in three places.

So, we have a three dimensional manifestations for the year 2021. In 2021, Jehovah shall cause you multiple rests.

SEASON Of RELEASE

Deut 15: 1 –There will be a termination of captivity. Termination of obligation. Cancelation of indebtedness. A season for the release of destiny, ,massive resources, favour. Release of fire, power and mantle.

SEASON OF RECOVERY (RESTORATION).

2 Kings 5:14:, Job 20:15. There is nothing so lost that cannot be found in God. There will be recovery for our nation (Nigeria).

SEASON OF REPLICATION

Gen 17:5. Multiplication. Increase and enlargement.
