I was not expecting anything different cos supreme court cannot over rule its self. All the ignorant people who still believe that will happen should go and hug transformer

Truth is the Supreme Court can overrule itself where it finds that its previous decision was wrong. That is the law.

Now will be taken more seriously! Folk(s) who pilloried me on this matter must eat the humble pie!!

Bros, why are you showing us KENYA’s Constitutional Court?

Speaks volumes! If you know you know!

Now we all know what we did not know before now which is that the picture represents a failed prediction!

Self-serving!

danbrowndmf:
you didn't answer my question.


Once a pastor commit any sin and sincere ask for forgiveness from God with an open apology ...such churches should still be shut down?

I did. A church is personified by who leads the church. The blind leading the blind have their destination fixed - harms way! That he “stepped down” all things considered might be damage control! Take time to visit coza website and you’ll see all links active except for the link about the pastors/leadership. That speaks volumes! So long amigo!

argumentum ad misericordiam And hominem don’t win lawsuits. Good strategy though!

danbrowndmf:
after the confession... Everyone should leave and the church be shut down?

You become like who you spiritually subject yourself to.
2. Godly repentance works sobriety. That was not in view.
3. Where a Christian falls in sin it is not expected that it becomes a lifestyle.
4. By their fruits we shall know them.
5. God does not expect a Christian to associate with a known worker of iniquity who, worse still gloats in sin.
6. His church is a dangerous place to be because God’s judgment on the assemblage is imminent.

Nigeria is a ZOO


Can he go to United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Germany or United states of America and slap a woman?
He will NOT only go to jail, he will cater for the woman's welfare for the rest of his miserable life if she declares herself incapacitated.

And to think that the crude thing has lived in all those countries except maybe Germany!

What apology! He must be arrested, detained in a run down police cell inhabited by hardened criminals well briefed about the offence he committed, arraigned and appropriately sentenced! All that happened was heard clearly in the audiovisual of the incident. I strongly believe He is mentally deranged! The idea behind the apology is to have the public to also see in him a victim as well! Until we deal properly with the folks who misrule us an end to misgovernance is not in sight.

No

Failure to defend or respond to this motion by apc means that the court can easily throw out atiku's case base on my own layman view.lawyers should interpret it more comprehensively.zoedew

Given that it is an election petition the decision of the tribunal will be wholistic

Whenever it happened he should be arrested and duly prosecuted. Once convicted his political career is fried! He is a misfit of a Senator!

He must be prosecuted and sentenced accordingly. Upon conviction he ceases to be a Senator and can no longer stand for an elective office. On a personal note it is as amazing as it is worrisome that despite his HIV positive he is still about irresponsible and sinful lifestyle and could have had blood contact the lady he so violently assaulted and infected her with the HIV he carries. Where is the woman’s rights lady who helped see Monica’s OAU Prof to jail the other day?

Truth!

My best read on this episode;

COZA Rape Controversy & The Age of Social Lunacy by Dodoh Okafor

1. On what basis did hundreds of people abandon their morning chores this Sunday to go picket the premises of the Common Wealth of Zion Assembly Church in Guzape Area of Abuja and Lagos?

2. Because a certain woman alleged (without any scintilla of proof) that she was raped? Because 5 women said the Church Pastor had inappropriate sexual relationships with them? Or because Segun Awosika said he has "30" women willing to testify against the COZA founder in law court?

3. What really was the essence of the nasty, rowdy, uncoordinated protests? To embarrass the church? To humiliate the pastor? To get the pastor to step down?

4. Pray- are those protesters really interested in pursuing a strong campaign against rape or were they on a vendetta mission?

5. I do not know what other people may think but here's what I am convinced about: many of those who jumped into this rape issue are being manipulated, misled and used as pawns in a complex game of chess by those who are adept at using the media to manipulate the gullible.

6. The man who conducted the interview that sparked the outrage is a certain Chude Jideonwo- one of the many crafty revisionists Nair El Rufai, Bola Tinubu and their lackeys employed to market Buhari in 2015. You are entitled to your opinion but I am convinced by Jideowno's involvement that a lie is involved, that a campaign to hoodwink the masses has been set in motion and with what I know of social media- a mechanism for creating a media storm has been activated.

7. The lady is probably dishonest and no rational thinker should believe her without at least asking a few important questions. I consider her motive to be suspect at best- reason being- what does she intend to achieve by coming out to tell a story that sound poorly fabricated, lacking in substance and designed to bring opprobrium to a man she had a choice to either deal with or avoid.

8. Many would remember the old Igbo adage that can be simply translated to imply that a raging ocean cannot drown a man whose feet it did not see. Fact is- Mr Fatoyinbo never dragged or nailed the buttocks of any man or woman to his church. Anyone always had the option of walking away the minute you became uncomfortable with his body body language or suggestions.

9. Mr Fatoyinbo did not just see anyone and grabbed her by the waist neither is there any report that he ever saw anyone on the street and pulled his car by the roadside, pushed her side and "opened his zip"

10. To be certain, I am not one to support the violation of trust by anyone in authority especially people from whom much is expected. Pastors, priests, teachers, uncle's and aunties, office superiors and village elders have a great responsibility to carry themselves with dignity and restraint at all times.

11. I am not one to blame the victim but when forceful sexual acts keep occurring and the victim never summoned up the courage to report to anyone but rather submits herself whenever her molester comes around for me has a different interpretation.

12. To imagine that the said Busola Dakolo kept submitting herself to Mr Fatoyinbo, attending his church, singing in his Choir, and as I heard- allowing him to wed her tells an entirely different story. It does not add up. Mrs Dakolo in my estimation may not have told us the entire story or perhaps she is playing a terrible game.

13. It pains me to see Nigerians swallowing that story hook line and sinker because some known social media influencers bought into it. This says a lot about how we have deteriorated in our capacity to think and reason.

14. When did we sublet our thinking power to social media influencers and celebrities? If these men and women care so much about rape- why are they not protesting against the mindless rape and killing of women by fulani cattle rearer/terrorists across most states in southern Nigeria?

15. If they care about women, where were they when a certain Elizabeth Ochanya was raped to death by a man and his son? How much did today's sudden philanthropists donate to support the prosecution of the perpetrators of what undoubtedly is a grave act of wickedness?

16. How much social media awareness did they raise when Eunice Elijah was killed by a band of lunatics in Kubwa Abuja? Why are they not interested in seeing that those behind the dastardly act are brought to book?

17. Where am I driving to? Again to be clear: I would be eager to see rapists and other criminals or those who violate the trust of young girls prosecuted and made to serve their punishment. But I would do everything I can to stop the triumph of online mob action against an assumedly innocent man.

18. Accusation is never conviction. Speaking emotionally while being filmed does not amount to presenting a hard evidence before a court of law. Has social media replaced conventional courts or is there something I am unaware of? Aren't injured people supposed to take their matter to court?

18. Is Mrs Dakolo seeking for justice, revenge, emotional appeal, to create mischief or just to destroy Mr Fatoyinbo? What exactly is this all about? Blackmail or some publicity stunts because none of it is clear to me.

19. Again I ask: what was the protest about? Was the protest against Fatoyinbo or COZA? Shouldn't a protest against Mr Fatoyinbo happen in front of his house? Why did they go to disrupt church programs at COZA today? Shouldn't COZA and Fatoyinbo be separate entities? How come the so-called lawyers who lined up at Guzape today missed this point? So COZA should be brought down because a certain woman told a disjointed story to Chude on camera?

20. Why are people so silly? Where's Stephanie Otobo? Why did she stop regalling us with tales of how Mr Johnson Suleiman "raped" her in Jamaica?

21. I would conclude by advising everyone to be circumspect about what's presented on social media. Truth is- the social media in most cases is structured to weaken your capacity to think, steal your power of logical and deductive reasoning from you and what else? Make you a fool.

22. Buhari and his handlers understood that it is very easy to sell lunacy on social media and the leveraged it to come to power- Ill prepared, with a vindictive mindset and you know where that has landed Nigeria.

23. Interestingly - the same group that sold Buhari to Nigerians in 2015 are behind this Busola Dakolo rape tale. I insist that there's a whole lot more to this hullabaloo.

24. You ask- what of the other 1000 girls that also accused the pastor of rape? I reply with: when did public opinion become the basis of adjudication in matters that require sensitivity and tack? Remember millions of people have voted for Buhari since 2015. Does that confer on Buhari the administrative skill he does not have?

25. What else? Who remembers the women who came forward to accuse Brett Kavanaug of rape soon after he was nominated for a Supreme Court position? When are we picking the US Supreme Court?

Let me end with an advice: never sublet your thinking to anyone- especially people whose agenda you do not understand.

Quite apparent the writer did not do due diligence on the subject of his write-up. It should have been quite clear to him that the office of a Pastor does not admit of his approach to the matter in that sex outside of marriage whether or not consensual is sin and makes him a misfit in the Collar. The righteous are as bold as a lion - his response should have gone all the way to state that rape or no he never had sex with his accuser outside marriage. Mercy prevails over judgment for anyone who will seek same and not for folks who hide behind a finger!

Proof is undeniable!

He built his academic life from the top crashing down! Something cannot be built on nothing!

APC - “Boko Haram is technically defeated!”

PDP - “OYO STATE IS TECHNICALLY BANKRUPT”

Technical political parties. Technical politicians.

What a laundry!

OK... I'm in no position to codemn or judge anyone but seriously!! A so called wife of a pastor wearing such gown on the altar!! Preaching!! No wonder most of their members come to church in their club outfits.. When you see a church that has its prime goal fixed at getting members and making money without a single iota of spirituality exhibited or preached by the pastor or the wife, if you know your Bible well enough and love the truth, you would flee from such places.. Just like I went for a choir audition in one Church, I passed the audition and was supposed to robe with the choirs the next Sunday service. Now this is an upcoming church oh! With dope instruments and instrumentalist(I give it to them) but I backed out when I went for one of their services and heared the pastor saying in quote "this church isn't for poor people" and I was like seriously!! (an upcoming church).. My story could be uncalled for but this is the extent some so called churches have reduced spirituality to. They don't care about their responsibility which is to help souls make heaven. What some of them care about is their pocket.. And they would rather lie to you and make you stay in church than tell you the Gospel truth without minding if it would make you leave and sadly enough, most of their members don't even consider this things as canal.. Just like how most of the members hailed the pastor of that church I went to, when he said "it wasn't for poor people"..
If you observed, I used the tag "some" cause I know they are still real spirit filled churches out there..
#may_God_help_us_all..

Truth is, that is part of the problem in such church settings where consecration does not have their attention! When, as a Christian who lacks consecration you become unequally yoked with the world in your dressing and lifestyle you look like the world and you will attract the world to yourself and when the world is attracted to you they will subtract Christ from you until you are equal the world. Is the reason the Bible says to not love the world. “1 John 2:15-17
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” Her arms clearly visible should not be. Appropriate dressing makes no room for that. Dressing in a manner that parades indecency and unclothedness can be in degrees. Her dressing misrepresent Christ, the Christian woman, The Bible and Christianity. A Pastor whose trademark is Dubai white parties and designer wears all lacking salvation content will soon land where Biodun Fatoyinbo found himself. He could have been helped though.

of what relevance is your private data if not to suggest different porn and betting sites to you?
All of una wan just talk

Too many in here are barely educated! Disgusting to say the least!

Ilorin

Not good. However, policemen here are generally speaking lax while on duty but bestial st torturing civvies

Folks ought to do the needful to get good governance in their own country instead of running off to enjoy good governance elsewhere where the citizens fought for it.

Okay going forward! However, his focus should not be on Ministry but his personal relationship with God and making heaven!

Resolution properly so called must be Constitutional. Brazil and USA went through this before. Let’s do peer review and learn going forward!

Congratulations! He who knows it feels it best!
