Mailonline reports that a Nigerian, Oluwaseun Adenubi, 30, pleaded guilty to fraud by false representation after using the passport of her friend, Rita Ogunkunle, 32, to obtain free medical care after giving birth. The Nigerian mother allowed a British couple to register as her new baby’s parents in bid to get free NHS care and secure a UK passport for the child, a court heard.

Vote not Fight

I

I seem to have lost my inspiration to write about Nigeria.  I have been going through the news headlines Buhari Reaction to Fayose’s Controversial Newspaper Advert, Federal Government of Nigeria, announced the reduction of the fuel price of petrol from N97 per litre to N87 per litre, I am not sick, PDP is desperate- Buhari etc. hoping for some pointers as to which way Nigeria but it just ain't happening.

Death! Where is their sting?

Muna Obiekwe's death again just brings home the point that life is so volatile that we should cherish every moment we have with our family and loved ones cause you never know when either could be taken away.


Muna never discussed his health challenges through his career as an actor, so it was quite a shock to hear about his death from a kidney failure. May his soul rest in peace.

The Great Shephard

This is a shout out to all sundry do not miss out on today's appointment with the great shepherd at the Redemption Camp Km 46 Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. It promises to be an exciting time with the King of Kings. See you there.

Where is TBN?

I was recently going through my cable network television and I could not find TBN Trinity Broadcasting Network instead I see Faith Africa. That truly got me worried as I wondered if TBN had gone "caput" off air.

After an internet search, I was so excited to read on the DSTV website that TBN had not been replaced, rather the network had rebranded in their own words, "This name change and branding strategy is a direct result of the Board's innovative approach to keep Christian television fresh and relevant in today's society".

This move does make a lot of sense considering the limited exposure of the youth to the bible doctrines, not many might understand the meaning of the word Trinity and how the "Trinity" is a reflection of the divine nature of God. Faith on the other hand is something that every one identifies with, as it travails the core of man's existence, the desire for relevance, a higher purpose for man's existence here on earth other than just evolution.

The word Faith cuts across every denomination as it is the backbone of every religion be it Faith in; Oneself, Science or  a Supreme being. The Faith Broadcasting Network professes Faith in the one true God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. The one who is more than able to do what he says he will do. To him be all the glory now and forever more. Amen.       

Maid beats child

The heart of man is desperately wicked, why would a human being with blood flowing through their veins melt out such an action against an innocent helpless child. Unbelieveable!

Two things either she must have undergone such treatment as a child growing up or she was being maltreated by the owners of the house and consequently melted out her anger and frustration on the child. Whatever the case may be however is no justification for her actions and I hope she faces the full brunt of the law.

Who is being entertained?

 

Reading through excerpts from a T-magazine interview with Jaden and Willow Smith, I can not help but wonder what kids born in the entertainment industry are exposed to. 

A simplistic question like What have you been reading?

Brought up rather the unique answers of "Quantum physics Osho" for the 14 year old Willow Smith and “The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life and ancient texts; things that can’t be pre-dated" for the 16-year old Jaden Smith.

 

It is Well

Life can cough up a good number of challenges and it may seem like higher forces are working against you. During those moments remember that you have a God who loves you he confirms this in his word in Psalm 50:15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.

Stay faithful to his word, pray ceaselessly and trust that the Lord is able to deliver you from every affliction.

Dealing with challenges makes life interesting, and overcoming them makes life meaningful do not lose faith, hold on it is well.

Who was the Angel

 

 

I was at the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) this weekend. I did not want to drive, I used the mass transit and while on route from Lekki to Obalende both located in Lagos State Nigeria.

At a bus stop in Lekki, I stopped and entered a green and white intra city transit bus and as we moved along the bus attendant or conductor requested that passengers pay the bus fare.

 

I had not used public transport along that route before and was not quite sure how much to pay, so I watched closely to see what amounts others paid as a yard stick for my fare.  A middle-aged man was on my left and another was at my right. The gentleman on my left offered the bus conductor a hundred (#100) naira note and made it quite clear that was all he was paying for the trip, after a very heated argument,  the conductor grudgingly collected the money.

 

Hoping to replicate what just took place, I quickly brought out my own hundred naira note and offered it to the conductor. Unfortunately the bus conductor refused to be taken twice and screamed that my fare was one hundred and fifty naira (#150) and not a hundred naira (#100).

Naija here we go again

I have a list of very events that have occurred in Nigeria that reflects the disheartening unique state of affairs in Nigeria.

First Stephen Keshi who was relieved of his job on October 16, a day after the Super Eagles defeated Sudan 3-1 in Abuja, by the Amaju Pinnick-led board of the NFF (who re-called former coach Shaibu Amodu in an interim capacity) but has been asked to return to his post as part of reconciliatory moves in the Nigeria Football Federation as ordered by President Goodluck Jonathan.

The Acting- Inspector General of Police, Suleiman Abba, Thursday, ordered the removal of security aides attached to Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal,Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in view of his recent defection by the Right Honourable Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, the , from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Bright like a naked diamond

I find it quite disheartening to see the music industry slowly turn into a sex industry, where nudity is celebrated even more than talent.
Where artists feel the need to consistently expose their body parts even at charity events like the amfAR The American Foundation for Aids Research inspiration gala held at Los Angeles on Wednesday.

Marriage

I was at church (The Lord's Cedar Parish RCCG) yesterday and the ministerial topic was marriage and the frequent sources of disagreements in marriages.

Marriage was defined as a covenant or an agreement ordained by God and recognized by the law, between two different individuals male and female to come together and live as one. 

It was indeed a lively debate in church on Tuesday Digging Deep and a lot of the congregation offered a lot of contributions and like one of the speakers emphasized there is no one super formula for a successful relationship, marriage is a work in progress as both parties must remain committed to making the relationship happy and fulfilling. 

Below is a summary of other key points that were raised during the program.

Husbands for Sale

I hope I am not breaking any copyright rules but my younger sister sent me this and I had to share.

A store that sells husbands has just opened in Zimbabwe where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates.

• You may visit the store ONLY ONCE!
• There are six floors and the attributes of the men increases as the shopper ascends the flights.

Finally here comes the catch!!!!

• You may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up a floor but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!
