Is there any subject in primary/secondary schools or the university with the name Islamic Arabic Studies ?

* Islamic Studies was never emposed on anyone about the so called new curriculum . The useless apostle, Reno Omkri just like his CAN simpletons brothers coin a non existing subject with the name Islamic Arabic Studies.

It should be noted that Arabic Language is a subject different from Islamic Religious Knowledge (I.R.K). Arabic language is 3rd most widely spoken language use by both Muslims and Non Muslims.In a matter of fact, there are Arab Christians.

There are four different subjects offered in schools with student having the option to select 1 of each category. These are: Islamic Religious Knowledge (IRK) or Christian Religious Knowledge AND French Language or Arabic Language. This has been so for decades.
The new curriculum scrap both I.R.K and C.R.K in to Civic Education while leaving French Language And Arabic Language for student to select one.

Observe This Below :

Christians Religious Knowledge (CRK - scrapped into Civic)

Islamic Religious Knowledge (IRK - scrapped into Civic)

French or Arabic Language ( Remain the same)


Also: The hypocrite did not tell us Whether Islamic Religious Knowledge (IRK) was also removed from the curriculum or not.
The hypocrites also fails to complain about French Language.

Bolustical:


While he has touched Otta, Ijebu, Abeokuta he has not shown enough concern for Ifo

The Chapel of Christ the Light, Alausa, Ikeja, was a shadow of itself on Sunday during the Sunday service as many members of the church did not show up.

PUNCH Metro, during a visit to the church, observed that the chapel was sparsely filled as the service, which usually ended around 1pm, was brought to a close at 11.30am.


Of the 30 church members that were supposed to be part of the birthday thanksgiving service for the month of May, only nine were present.


From the prayer session, led by the Chaplain, Very Rev. Ayo Oyadotun, to the choir ministration, the general theme was overcoming difficult times and fighting forces seeking to scatter the church.

PUNCH Metro had reported that the Presiding Chaplain of the Chapel, Venerable Femi Taiwo, was sacked by the Governing Council of the church allegedly on the orders of the state Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode.

Taiwo was said to have been sacked for “disrespecting” Ambode’s wife, Bolanle.

Bolanle was reported to have attended the chapel on Sunday, May 14, for an anointing service.

She was reported to have stormed out of the church for not being recognised by the chaplain during the service.

By 1pm the following day, Taiwo was sacked and issued a 24-hour ultimatum to vacate the vicarage with his wife and kids.

The government ordered Taiwo’s assistant, Oyadotun, to take over the mantle of leadership of the church.

On Friday, Nigerians expressed disappointment at the action of Ambode, asking him to call his wife to order and rescind the decision.

On Saturday, the Lagos State Government, due to the backlash that trailed the report, shifted the thanksgiving service for the Lagos@50 celebration from the chapel to the Banquet Hall, Lagos House, Alausa.

In an interview with our correspondent, Taiwo’s bishop at the African Church, Rt. Rev. Michael Adeyemi, said the church was embarrassed by the action of the Lagos first family.


He noted that Bolanle’s action, in particular, was ungodly and sacrilegious, adding that she must apologise for disrespecting a minister of God due to her ego.

PUNCH Metro on Sunday observed that the incident had taken its toll on the chapel as most members were absent.

During a brief sermon, one of the church’s pastors, Deji Koko, who claimed to have fainted while ministering during a vigil at the chapel on Saturday, announced a 14-day prayer campaign.

Koko urged the congregation to always pray for their pastors, saying the church was engaged in a battle.

He said, “We must pray. We first had a seven-day vigil and the devil struck back. It is when you hit the enemy that he fights back.

“We again declared a three-day vigil, which started on Wednesday. I was here (at the pulpit) when I suddenly fell. I heard Baba (pointing at one of the church’s elders) screaming.

“I didn’t know what was happening again. I was taken to the back.

“The Bible says smite the shepherd and the sheep will scatter. A shepherd has been struck, but thank God we have not scattered.”

He challenged the members to keep holding on to their faith, saying the church would emerge stronger in the end.

Our correspondent observed that the name of the sacked presiding chaplain, Taiwo, which was on the programme booklet, was blurred with a marker.

At the end of the service, the church announced that ‘registered’ members would have a meeting.

A source told PUNCH Metro that the meeting bordered on resolving the crisis in the church.

She said, “At the meeting, your report was mentioned and the church said it had sent a rejoinder.

“It was also agreed that ministers coming into the chapel may need to be educated on protocols because some ministers don’t really know much and may need to be schooled.

“We all are not happy with the removal of the Venerable, but it is appearing that he might not return. That was the reason the church’s attendance was seriously affected today (Sunday). In fact, if you observed, some of the church members were leaving while the service was on. The church used to overflow with people.

“We also finished the service unusually early. Unfortunately, the government and the governing council have been sending some lies to a particular online platform to damage the reputation of Venerable Taiwo. It was among the discussions at the church and we have asked that the issues be put in perspective.”

It was gathered that the governing council and the church’s committee had been under pressure from the state government to issue statements on the incident.

A member of the church told PUNCH Metro that the church spent about seven hours in another emergency meeting over the matter on Friday.

“They wrote down the names of some of the church members that could have possibly leaked the report to the press because the government was seriously embarrassed by the report,” the source said.

A statement, issued on Saturday and signed by 2nd Vice Chairman and Head of Laity, Ayo Obajimi, and the church’s Assistant Secretary, Dotun Okunade, for the Chapel Management Committee, stated that the chapel dissociated itself from The PUNCH’s reports because it enjoyed the support of the government.

It noted that the chapel had a committee that supervised its day-to-day running.

The six-paragraph statement read in part, “We observed that on a previous occasion, and during the anointing service of May 14, 2017, security and protocol rules were breached.

“It should be mentioned that since the commencement of this present administration, the church has continuously enjoyed tremendous support from the state government.

“In view of the above, the church is using this medium to disabuse the minds of the public that the information contained in the said publication is not supported by the church. We affirm that the church will not be part of anything that may embarrass the Lagos State Government.”

PUNCH Metro gathered that the governing council, the Christian Association of Nigeria, The African Church, The Christian Council of Nigeria, would hold a meeting on the incident on Monday (today).

A source said the meeting was scheduled for 11am.

“The intent of the meeting is not clear, but it is after the meeting that we will know the way forward,” the source said.

When contacted, the Chairman of CAN, Lagos State, Apostle Alexander Bamgbola, and CAN’s Secretary, Israel Akinadewo, declined comments over the incident.

“I have no comment, my son,” Bamgbola said.

So....baba CNT address us from his base.....he must not be in Nigeria to address the nation

lightblazingnow:
Do you ever think that those who controls the running and coordination of every nations government is within the government buildings? You must be a kid to even imagine that those who are incharge of Nigerian government lives in Aso Rock in Abuja's. Never. They are the scattered men all over the country who knows themselves.
You may be one of them right now reading this, and many who don't know how the working of government activities operates will keep looking at the wrong places.


Before any major decisions are taken by any living government there must be meeting and more meetings to arrive at a point. Example of such is the just concluded high power 2015 general elections which the formal president Jonathan Goodluck conceded defeat to the present government. The cabal played the card to arrive where we are right now.

Even after the concession and announcements, there followed another visit to authenticate the arrangement of early meetings and after thoughts of the invisible ruling class.

The ones you see in government are the appointee's of the invisible mafia Cabal's. The point is don't set up yourself to be a member of this glorious Cabal's. It's always a privilege to join them. These men are the appointee's of the CHRIST JESUS the king of kings and lord of lords. But there is and will always be a Cabal's in any society nations the world over.


And so stop accusing innocent appointee's of the invisible Cabal's. Someone asked the vice president last time of the existence of the cabal in Aso Rock, he gave an eye opener answer to the discerning minds

“Cabals are meant to be secret. I am still looking for those guys. Honestly, I don’t know where they are. I can’t tell you that I know where those fellows are,” he said.

Keep looking if you are not discerning. It could be your dad at home. One thing is​ certain; there is a Cabal's​and will always be and you could be next and I may be one of them writing these. It isn't an evil thing to be a member but it's evil if the Cabal's have an evil agenda against the nations as the agenda of PDP and it's handlers were to takeoff everything from the people and turn the people into beggerly generations


One word for the Cabal's members: you will give account of big and tiny impact of your contributions​ to the rise or the falls​ of the Nigeria state. And to the people; prayers for the Cabal's and also for the government.


Long live peace and blessings

MayorofLagos:
I continue to hammer on this issue for past two years. God forbid if Buhari passes, that the Northerners will agree to submit to Osinbajo leadership.

Osinbajo is not sorrounded with class and authority, at all!

Presidency comes with tradition and culture and in Nigeria Yoruba are the fashionistas, we command couture taste. In traditional Yoruba culture Osinbajo is not dressed formally in this picture. This appearance diminishes the grandeur that should naturally associatr with his office and role.

Imagine the VP of a western country coming out in ordinary shirt and tie, no suit...and does that everyday and wherever he goes and regardless of the occassion. The equivalent of that image is what Osinbajo does when he comes out in this taxi driver attire.

Now, who is that guy behind him in blue kaftan? It just gets worse!! In his case picture President of Nigeria visiting the West and the assistant to their President appears in the office with just shirt, no tie, no suit. Thats what we have here. Na.k.ed!! No style, just dry!

Very irritating! Tasteless, classless, devoid of any appeal...just dry!
