Frankly speaking Redeem Traffic jam is horrendous and doesn't speak well of them. This is an excess that the government shouldn't have tolerated.

Also, I don't think Buhari is the mastermind behind these laws. I suspect it's Adeosun, the British raised ex commissioner of finance of Ogun state who is now the Minister of that ministry in Abuja.

For someone raised in secular Britain where they are not religious, the traffic jams caused by church activities must have shocked and incensed her. She obviously felt they needed to be tamed. The way it looked, these religious houses were above the state and the law. To her, it should be the other way round.

She must have been powerless to act then as the governor would be toying with a loss at the polling booth.

At the centre now and with a unsentimental president who even tried to arrest Tompolo, an opportunity was now open.

However, successive governments have shrunk from taking them on either because the president is religious or does not want to alienate a massive voting block. Adeboye is one of the 50 most influential men in the world. I am sure he controls at least a million votes.

Already, the reprisal has started. I am eating pop corn while watching out how things unfold

Why won't they? In a country that is economically on the brink of collapse while her hypocritical religious people keep dumping their billions in churches, why shouldn't a government look to them? Now the government is trying to help them set up their business establishment so that they can begin to remit something back, this one is complaining.

Y'all should get ready for the heat. There is a wave of clear out of religious bodies about to start in this country. These laws are just the beginning. By the time all of them have stepped down, become irrelevant and their churches have lost all their tactics for luring the gullible, then this country will begin its journey to mental and economic freedom

is Christianity the only religion in Nigeria? Are they the only ones with billions?

Why has govt not done their own part by developing the country and creating good policies to drive the economy

Why are they worried about Christians billions?

A lot of people live under the bridge and slum( poverty ) .. Not once or twice I had to control myself not to cry..... There is this slum it's under the bridge with a lot of woods ( the ones used for electrical poles) and I know people lives there...... We Nigerians are so blinded by our love for religion and tribalism and it is killing us .. It makes me wonder y we keep building churches and we are not developing as a nation(it only means one thing we are practicing religion and tribalism wrongly).

You are nurturing rebellion in your heart but thinking the church should be responsible for building infrastructures .That is not the role of the church.All the monies received by Jesus Christ during his ministry on earth were used for the purpose of the ministry.That is the template.They are used to serve the work of the ministry.You should hold your governors accountable.
I am befuddled why you actually think the church should be responsible,money received in the church are not taxes,entitlements,they are sanctified gifts and donations,offerings and tithes.The leader of the church has the divine authority to administer the use of the former for the purpose of evangelism and reaching the world with the gospel.They also do charity with it as due.

GO?why complaining now against the appointed agents of your god as indicated in your book.....you don sin ooh......as e don hit you....slave master now overtaken? Christianity used to rule govt but now?

I only pity those who are involve in this.

martineverest:
daddy GO,u never made such statement before ur retirement......the law is a checkmate for religious leaders who turn religious practices into private and family business

The law is weak if that is the objective how will the law stop a cleric from putting his kin as successor?

AllTheWayUp:



Buhari and Hell Rufai are bloody unrepentant jihadists,

Both of them will be struck by thunder

See ignorance, go check when the law was made and how law are passed in this country.

TheFreeOne:

Maybe its gonna be sooner than you think?

Couple of weeks back a man called TVC during a discussion programme that the next president of Nigeria is VP Yemi Osinbajo.

Just thinking loud cos there's been prophecies or should I say wishes by some religious leaders too.

The prophesy will be fulfilled only if you have a voters card and is a card carry member of a party and willing to vote in a Christian in next election.

thesicilian:

Atiku was not as docile as this.

He was more docile. How many committee did he chair? How many delegates did he received? How many statement did he make on behalf of the nation?

Just a few

Akiika:

Oh, it was Daddy GO that prayed that he be sacked! dis una GOs don crase una finish.

I never said he prayed that your Biafra man be sacked. Idiot

"For the purpose of evangelism" who wouldn't love to go for evangelism in a private jet... The church is meant to help we the masses both spiritually or physically (helping the less privilege) ....

The government has been showing increasing interest in church affairs. Unfortunately, for us in RCCG, it might not be very helpful,” Adeboye said.

He further accused the government of not allowing the church (RCCG) to continue with its stipulated lifetime 100 per cent salaries to its pensioners.

“For example, when I decided on what will be the pension of our pastors, what I decided is not done anywhere in the world. That somebody will retire and continue to earn full salaries all his lifetimeAccording to him, “Now there are fresh laws. We have a rough idea of what the law is about.

“Some people believe that RCCG is becoming too influential and we’re going to be more influential. When you get home, tell members to join a political party.

“Join a party and become a card-carrying member of any party. Just join any party. We shall decide issues right from the ward level.

“If you are not active at ward level, you’ll do what they plan and say at the top. Enrol in any party of your choice and have a card.

“When holding meetings at ward level to choose delegates, be there".

“One Muslim in Ibadan said years ago that he didn’t know what’s wrong with Christians; that we help them to occupy political positions and refused to capitalise on our population. That’s going to change from now,” Adeboye stated.

On the tenure of general overseers of religious bodies in the country, Pastor Adeboye disclosed that in the “new law that has been announced, they said that nobody can be overseer for more than certain number of years.

“And according to that law, people like me, Bishop David Oyedepo, Pastor W. F. Kumuyi, Bishop Mike Okonkwo were already gone.”







MY PERSPECTIVE


When Rev. Bosun Emmanuel's audio went viral, I think the rccg issued a disclaimer trying to dissociate itself from his hard facts which have now been proven to be true...but now the rccg is obviously towing a non-neutral path, because they have realised that Bosun Emmanuel is a prophet after all... Everything he said is being played out like a script.

Some elements within rccg itself, Christendom and Government (GEJ and PMB) may have been culpable in these new FRC law in order to serve different interests.

However, events Since PMB took over has revealed a clear religion bias. The deaths in Southern Kaduna and his actions and inactions is just one out of many. And like Rev. Bosun Emmanuel said in his audio, The Church in the South (West especially) is a Selfish church!

Why are they worried about Christians billions?

Because mosques are not so profitable, very poor. Churches have their excesses by excesses I mean a lot of excesses but the Government is already threatened by the apparent influence of the church on so many things....which makes the failure of government too obvious. John Cardinal Onaiyekan said something around late 2015 that the church takes care of the social intangibles which are actually the only thing still keeping citizens in sanity state that when government fails in the obvious aspects of nationbuilding, the church absorbs the emotional energies. Citizens find solace in activities that gives their soul peace.

So you just decided to rain curse on your brother in faith, GEJ who implemented the law?

Did you not see my prophesy came to pass? OBAZEE WAS REMOVED FEW DAYS AFTER ON 9th January 2017.Confusion was at the gate of the enemies and they began to attack themselves and they couldn't stand the power of JESUS, the almighty God. They have just started, more division and outright destruction of the enemies awaits 'em all.
