A Twitter user @Imudia_se2 had taken to the platform to share photos of the alleged UNN male hostel and captioned it,

Churches should be shut again if necessary – Pastor Ituah Ighodalo

Pastor, Ituah Ighodalo, says churches should be closed if it becomes necessary to do so as part of measures to contain the spread of Coronavirus that is currently on its second wave in Nigeria.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Most people who fall sick with COVID-19 will experience mild to moderate symptoms and recover without special treatment.

Pastor, Ituah Ighodalo while appearing on Arise TV today December 21, was asked to share his thought on the government shutting down churches due to the second wave of COVID-19.

He said;

“If we need to. There is nothing sacrosanct about a religious house; a religious house is a gathering of people wanting to worship God. If that gathering and that intimacy in the gathering will lead to the spread of germs or disease, God, because you want to worship Him, would not say that the physical things that you need to do should not be done.

So, if we need to shut down the churches, why not? Churches were shut down several months ago. We didn’t die, we survived. The churches learnt to go online, on Zoom. Christianity benefited from it because we now began to use more technology to offer our evangelism and our worship of God and we quite enjoyed it.

The Zoom meetings are not as intimate but we have managed to reduce things to house fellowships and life must go on.”

He disagreed with the opinion shared in some quarters that churches played a role in the recent spike in the number of confirmed cases of the virus.

“To speak to the issue as to whether churches are the ones who have not allowed COVID-19 cases to go down or who are the ones going against COVID-19 protocols, I regret to say I don’t quite agree.

I think the government has bigger fishes to fry. If you go to any of the markets, any of the bus stops, any of the busy places, people don’t even wear masks. So, those gatherings of people are much more than the gathering in any church from time to time.

In fairness to most churches, they have tried, a few no doubt have flouted the rules here and there but most of them have tried to keep to the COVID-19 protocols. So, it is not fair to say that it is the big churches that are flouting COVID guidelines.” he said

SIM Deactivation: Large Crowd Invades NIMC Office In Lagos Amid COVID-19 Restrictions (Photos)

December 21, 2020

Mammoth crowd stormed the Alausa office of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) in Lagos State on Monday, December 21, to obtain their National Identification Number (NIN), following the SIM deactivation order by the Federal Government.

This comes amid the FG’s warning against large gatherings as the country battles its second wave of COVID-19 pandemic.

It would be recalled that the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) gave local telecommunications operators two weeks deadline to block all sims who are yet to be registered with the National identify numbers (NIN). The order is said to be from the Federal Government.

The Monday rush at the Alausa office is therefore not unconnected to the ultimatum as Nigerians attempt to get their NIN, for fear of having their sims deactivated after the two-weeks ultimatum.

Members of the House of Representatives asked the Federal Government to extend the deadline for the provision of NIN by telcos to 10 weeks.

The House, at the plenary on Wednesday, described the two weeks given to SIM card users by NCC to provide their NIN to service providers as grossly inadequate.

However, the Commission was yet to make a public reversal of its notice as at Monday, December 20.

The large gathering at the NIMC office has sparked outrage from Netizens, who called out both Lagos and Federal Governor for issuing conflicting directives.

It would be recalled that over the weekend, the Lagos state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, announced a slew of COVID-19 restrictions, in preparation for second wave of COVID-19 infection.

The state placed a ban on concerts, street parties, and nightclubs. He also ordered a shut down of schools and instructed civil servants from grade level 14 to work from home.

“My profile rose after disqualification from BBNaija” –Tacha

By

December 21, 2020

Big Brother Naija star, Natacha Akide popularly known as Tacha has revealed that her disqualification from the reality show was a blessing in disguise.

Speaking about her experience after her disqualification from the BBNaija house, Tacha described it as a low moment but God used it to elevate her.

Tacha who made this revelation in her recent vlog on her YouTube channel said,

“On September 27, 2019, I was disqualified from Big Brother Naija. That was a very low moment for me, having almost got to the finals and being dropped.

“Getting disqualified was one of the low moments of my life. I felt down. There were times I would be all by myself and start crying that I almost got to the last day of the show. It really shook me and a lot of people. But, I got elevated somehow, and I still don’t know how that happened.

There is a stigma behind getting disqualified but I am still doing well a year later. I consider that to be a huge elevation. Some people have gone through such moments in their lives and still have not been able to get back on their feet. For me, it was a different ball game”.

The reality star who noted that she’s a living proof of God’s greatness, revealed that a year after the show people her circle started acting awkward and things started getting tough for her again, but she was able to pull through.

In her words,

“Few people in my circle started acting awkward. Things just started getting hard from around that same time this year and I could not understand why. Things were getting harder and the people in my circle were acting in a certain way.

“Who would have thought this little girl from a rural area in Port Harcourt could be the one that many people look up to? I am a living testimony that God is good.”

Grieving father, Sylvia Ufiem-Nnachi has called on the security agencies in the state to conduct a professional investigation into the alleged abduction and murder of his 2-year-old daughter.

It was earlier reported that the body of Rosemary Chinyere Nnachi was found floating in a river at Nnodo community, in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi state capital.

The deceased went missing on Saturday, December 12, when she attended an end of the year event with her parents at a club in Nnoro community.

It was gathered that her body was found 48 hours later floating in a stream far from the club. Her parents are said to be members of the club.

In an interview with PUNCH, 44-year-old Nnachi narrated the events leading to the disappearance and death of his two-year-old daughter.

When asked if he will ever recover from the tragic incident, Nnachi said he can’t recover from it because the pain is too much for him to bear.

In his words,

“I don’t think so. This is really too much for me. This is the second death that has kept me wondering and shivering. The first was the death of my mother, which left me so emotionally and psychologically crippled and again, Chinyere Rosemary’s death. This is too much to bear. I can’t recover from it. These two deaths are tragic for me. If God chooses to comfort me and my family, let Him do so.”

The Special Adviser to President Buhari, Femi Adesina, has said that Nigerians should be thankful that bombings in the country does not happen on a daily.

The senior media aide to the president said this in reaction to the concerns by Nigerians about the upsurge of insecurity in the country during an interview on Channels Television’s ‘Sunday Politics’.

According to Femi, the country had recorded six bombs in one day but since President Buhari took office, the bombings and killings have decreased.

He said,

“Yes, there are times, a week, two weeks even a month that you don’t have all these things happening. There was a time in the immediate past when they happened daily several times. You talked of one bombing within three or four days. There was a time in this country when bombs went off like firecrackers every day.

“There could be five, six bombings in one day. Now, you can have two, three months with no single case of bombing. Let’s be thankful for small mercies. Any mercies we receive, let’s be thankful for it, and let’s not dwell on negatives alone.

“Life is taking the rough and smooth together. So, sometimes we see when things go on for days, for weeks with no negative developments, let us emphasise those ones… We have challenges but these are not the constants in the country.”
