Pastor Adeboye to annoint RCCG children against meningitis as Zamfara governor says outbreak is God’s punishment

The outbreak of meningitis in parts of Nigeria has been claimed to be a punishment from God by Zamfara State governor, Abdulaziz Yari 

But renowned man of God, Pastor E. A. Adeboye has instructed his congregants to get their children anointed to prevent getting the disease.

Speaking at a recent service, the General Overseer said, ‘If you have been listening to the news, you will hear of an outbreak of Meningitis. We don’t want any kind of plague to come near our children.

‘So, we want to anoint them and set them apart. So, make sure all children are there at the special Holy Ghost service for childen.’

The disease has claimed close to 400 lives across 16 states in Nigeria.

The charge by the RCCG clergy has been met with criticism from a section of Nigerians who feel medical vaccination is a better preventive move than the spiritual.

Meningitis is an acute inflammation of the membrane covering the brain which is caused by viral or bacterial infection.

It is a deadly disease that kills in a very short time if not treated.

Do share your thoughts on the clergy man’s comment.

Ekiti State Police Command was in the eye of the storm on Monday, as a state High Court sitting in Ikere Ekiti, awarded a sum of N20m damages against it, over illegal detention and brutalization of a 51-year old woman, Mrs Sola Aregbesola.

The presiding Judge, Justice Olusegun Ogunyemi, also awarded another N250k cost against the police, an amount which covers the expenses spent on medical treatment as a result of the unlawful detention and beating she suffered in the hands of the cops. .

The plaintiff, Aregbesola, a resident of Okebedo in Ilawe Ekiti, was beaten, tortured , wounded, chained and detained for 72 hours at Ilawe Police Station last year October over an issue that bordered on an illicit love affair between her husband and another woman. .

Aregbesola who was subsequently picked up by the police, on the order of her husband’s mistress, had before the arrest, suffered an attack from the accused who allegedly poured hot soup on her face, which inflicted serious bodily injuries on her, causing deformation to her person.

The mother of five claimed that she lost one of her eyes as a result of the alleged brutality she suffered in the hands of the policemen, who she also accused of almost stripping her naked while in custody.

‘Since I became born again, my friends have abandoned me’ – Majid Michel

For Ghanaian actor, Majid Michel, being born again has cost him a lot of friends.

The once racy Ghanaian actor shocked fans last year when he disclosed that he had become a born again Christian and was ready to let go of any worldly things, including taking up romantic and raunchy movie roles.

But it seems the actor is not having the best of times with his close friends as he revealed that most of them have deserted him after he made the decision to become born again.

According to him, his vision determines his friends and so, to be at a better position in serving God effectively, he has to make room for those who will help him attain that goal.

Majid further said that he also had to let go of some friends who are detractors and cannot help him achieve the goals he’s set for himself as a Christian.

While attributing his success as a good Christian to his friends, he said in an interview with Abusa FM Ghana, ‘If you’ve a plan or goal it determines the kinds of books you read, the kind of friends you hold and the kind of people you hang around with. Pascal and Timothy became close to me because we’ve like minds of doing the work of God and they’ve become my friends.

Even if we go to a hotel and I’ve a lady friend, I’m monitored by Pascal and he asks who that person is. Sometimes I can have friends who can entertain lady friends and that makes it very important to know which friends you can really move with,’ boasted Majid.

Boko Haram Leader is Ready to Appear before the Senate

Boko Haram Leader is Ready to Appear before the Senate.

The leader of Boko Haram terror sect Abubakar Shekau is ready to appear before the Senate in his Boko Haram uniform but the Senate is refusing to summon him.

The issue of appearing before senate has become a topic in Nigeria. In recent weeks, the senate has authoritatively summonsed people to appear before it on trivial issues.

Last week, the topic of discussion in the Nigerian media was the senate's insistance that custom's boss Rtd Col Hameed Ali, must appear before them in full customs uniform. The issue heated the polity for the entire week.

By their insistence on Col. Hameed Ali putting on the customs uniform before appearing before them, the senate forgot and neglected the real reason for inviting the customs boss, which was to explain and shed more light on why Nigerians must pay vehicle duty for cars that are already within the country. Rather they concentrated on the Uniform issue which was of no national interest.

Similarly, the senate, last week Wednesday summoned Professor Sagay, the head of anti corruption fight committee to appear before it, he however turned down the invitation, refusing to appear before them claiming they had no authority to summon him.

On the other hand, the leader of Boko Haram sect has sought to be summoned by the senate to clarify issues of national interest but they have failed to invite him. Shekau is supposed to appear before the senate and explain to Nigerians why he has persistently carried out attacks, bombarding towns and cities, destroying properties worth millions of naira, killing innocent people and rendering thousands homeless in IDP camps.
