Founder and leader of popular Nigerian church, Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome touched on a quite sensitive topic while preaching and his stance on the topic has had some Nigerians enraged.
The pastor is heard saying “Woman was not God’s original idea” and Nigerians – especially feminists – are furious.
Although it’s reported that the preaching which has gone viral is an old one, people are still irritated by what he said about a woman.
— Slay Papa ?? a.k.a Mr. Skye ? (@TweetAtAustin) July 11, 2019
It is now Pastor Chris said and not Bible said, You people should just download Bible in pdf and edit the part you don’t like.
@SledgeAma: Leave Pastor Chris alone, he is right . If you are getting married according to the Bible, a wife should be submissive to her husband and the husband is to guide her, love and cherish her. Carry your bitterness and go abeg…
@De_Con_Troll_aH: The truth about this Pastor Chris sermon is that the people against him are not true Christians or their level of understanding is as that of steak. Don’t be a feminist before you be a reasonable person. Don’t just jump and scream misogyny over everything that you don’t get.
@indliteoftruth: A man love the one he serves and the one that serves him, but he fight the one that’s equal with him. Pastor Chris No husband wants another mother. Get it now! Pastor Chris Oyakhilome
@Tom_Tom23BJ: Pastor Chris has made everybody on the TL to be studying the Bible today
@Adunni_Achebe: U can’t be a Christian or Muslim a Feminist. If u think otherwise, u’re either confused or have a bad case of Cognitive dissonance. Abrahamic religions clearly state that God made d Woman to assist Man. Aunty, there’s no equality in Zion.
Pastor Chris jst exposed ur ignorance.
@queeninghere: Pastor Chris legit said “Husband doesn’t mean the male partner in a marriage, it means master. He just implied that wife means SLAVE” sad how religious leaders sanctify social constructs like misogyny & the oppression of women.
@uzi_an: The way Nigerians drag pastors is alarming!!! Even those that dont goto church or read the bible. It was Pastor Adeboye the other day… Today is Pastor Chris! Can we just concentrate on the issues plaguing Nigerians? I think the major issue here is misplaced priorities #SMH
@akinalabi: A wife is an equal partner. The husband is not a master. Stop teaching rubbish Pastor Chris.
@vanessah_kei: “The reason God made woman was because if the man. The woman was not his original idea”. This is what Pastor Chris, who went to Bible school thinks? The same God who is omniscient, who knows the end from the beginning, who knew the role Esther would play in saving his people?
@damistargirl: I can’t believe people are sitting down, listening and hailing Pastor Chris for saying this. This is misogyny in its highest level. No wonder his wife left, I hope she gets back all the years she spent with this sexist human being.
Before the quarter-finals match that eventually got the Bafana Bafana team of South Africa knocked out from the 2019 African Cup of Nations, they had a payment plan for their campaign.
For reaching the last eight of the 2019 AFCON in Egypt after a 1-0 victory over Egypt on Saturday in Cairo, each player had a guaranteed R520,000.
Here’s the breakdown of the bonus payment plan as guaranteed by the South African Football Association;
– R320 000 for reaching the last 16
– R520 000 for the quarter-finals
– R670 000 for the semi-finals
– R920 000 for winning the tournament
They however couldn’t hit the R670,000 jackpot, as their journey in the 2019 AFCON was cut short by the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

There was chaos at the Federal Secretariat, Abuja on Thursday morning after members of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria also known as Shi’ites, clashed with officers of the Nigerian Police Force.
According to reports, the Shi’ite members were staging a protest, demanding the release of their leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky when some of their members and police officers in the Secretariat had an argument which degenerated into a fight.

This faceoff comes two days after some Shiite members invaded the National Assembly complex during which four policemen were injured and many cars destroyed in the complex.
Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele-Bello aka Jenifa, has said she finds it unacceptable for her friends to feel so cozy with her husband that they start exchanging casual phone calls or text messages.
Funke who is married to music producer, JJC Skillz, says her friends can only call him when it’s his birthday or when they want to reach her but cannot. Other than that, its a no-no for her.
The actress who welcomed a set of twins late last year, said this during an interview with TVC. When asked her opinion about friends and respecting personal spaces in marriages and relationships, Funke said,
For me, personal space is personal space. Your best friend has to stay in her lane. Your friend can come to your house, your husband can know your best friend, he can say hello but why would she be calling my husband on the phone? Except its his birthday” she said
Ghana’s Food and Drugs Authority and Police have arrested one Elizabeth Torgbor popularly known as Mama Gee, who sells aphrodisiac and other drugs said to be charms to make the ‘v*gina sweeter‘ and also make men succumb to any demand.
Upon being arrested, the woman who operates in Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi and other regions in Ghana, claimed to be a Christian who only wants to build relationships and marriages.
Denying that her drugs are charms, Mama Gee however believes her drugs attract men as soon a woman prays over it and applies it on her forehead.
The drugs she sell are reportedly not registered nor approved by Ghana’s Food and Drugs Authority.
“Mama Gee was arrested on Wednesday 10th July, 2019 at her shop at Madina near Rawlings Park in Accra. The FDA wishes to advise the general public not to patronize such products from Mama Gee since it has not been approved by the Authority and the claims cannot be substantiated”, the statement read in parts.
In a grim case of jungle justice, one Olamide Omolede, a 22-year-old man, was on Monday killed by hoodlums in Badore, Ajah, Lagos after he was wrongly accused of stealing a mobile phone, PREMIUM TIMES reports.
The incident occurred on Monday evening, the victim’s father said.
PREMIUM TIMES gathered that following days of epileptic power supply in the community, Mr Omolede, who is also a tricycle rider, went to a nearby store to charge his handset for a fee.
Afterwards, he left the store for his house. However, after some minutes, a woman whose name had not been provided at the time of filing this report arrived at Mr Omolede’s house with some hoodlums, alleging he stole her phone where they were charging.
The hoodlums mauled him to death and threw his body into a nearby lagoon.
A witness, Tunde Afolabi, told PREMIUM TIMES that the deceased was first paraded half-naked to Iyalaye Store where the alleged theft occurred.
“After he eventually died, the thugs threw him into the lagoon. But we concerned people of the community paid Egun people to help trace the corpse after we heard the incident. The corpse was brought out of the river this morning,” he said.
He said the phone which was reported stolen was later found with the son of the woman who had accused Mr Omolede of stealing it.
Victim’s parent speaks:
Francis Omolede, the victim’s father, also spoke with PREMIUM TIMES on the tragedy.
“I was called on Monday by the sister of the victim that her brother was accused of stealing a phone. After the thugs brought by the woman who accused him of stealing eventually killed him, they threw him into the river to avoid traces.
“It was afterwards that the phone was found with the son of the woman who wrongly accused my son. The police have arrested the woman and some of the thugs who perpetrated the act,” he told PREMIUM TIMES Wednesday.
Also, the traditional head of the community identified as Baale Jikoji told PREMIUM TIMES that the matter would be properly handled.
“We have met and we will definitely address the matter”, he told our correspondent.
Police react
The police officer in charge of the matter, who simply identified himself as Inspector Sunday, told PREMIUM TIMES that proper investigation would be carried out.
“We have arrested the woman who accused the victim and some thugs that carried out the act. Some of them are still at large but we will definitely arrest and carry out a proper investigation,” he said.
Following the death of Mr Omolede, tricycle riders on Badore-Ajah road blocked the major road to express their anger over the incident.
Veteran Nollywood filmmaker, Fidelis Duker has shown that he’s clearly not a fan of male cross-dresser, Bobrisky and as such, has called for his apprehension.
Sharing a photo of Bobrisky on his Facebook page, Fidelis Duker wrote,
‘when would this Boy/Man be arrested? This is getting more irritating’.
Fidelis Duker is neither the first nor the only celebrity to speak against the cross-dresser, over time, Bobrisky has faced heavy backlash over his sexuality fro a handful of celebs, more particularly, those in the Nollywood industry.
He has always fought back and continued to remain resilient – he even puts in more effort in his ‘slay’ game so he can always give his haters something to talk about.

Head of States, President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated the Super Eagles of Nigeria for defeating the Bafana Bafana of South Africa last night at the ongoing African Cup of Nations (AFCON).
The Super Eagles had on Wednesday thrashed their opponent to qualify for the next round, semi finals. The President’s congratulatory message was contained in a statement by his Senior Spokesman, Mallam Garba Shehu, a copy of which was obtained by Igbere TV.
Taking to Twitter, Shehu wrote;
“President @MBuhari congratulates the @NGSuperEagles for another spectacular outing that has confirmed Nigeria’s progress to the Next Level in the Africa Cup of Nations (#AFCON) Egypt 2019. #NGARSA
“With a well-deserved victory over the Bafana Bafana of South Africa, President Buhari believes, like millions of other sports-loving Nigerians, that the mission of having the trophy in our hands for the fourth time is almost accomplished for the high flying Eagles.
“The President urges the team and their handlers to remain focused, disciplined and scale the remaining two hurdles to glory.
“He affirms that the crop of players in the national football team represent the resilient and indomitable Nigerian spirit, which must be reflected in all other areas of national life.
“PMB assures the players that Nigerians are praying for them to fly higher and get to the peak of the tournament, knowing that the taste of victory is sweet and what they have achieved so far is pleasing to Nigerians irrespective of ethnic, religious or political inclination.”
South Africa’s Bafana Bafana team were literally seconds away from extra-time when a goalkeeping error from Ronwen Williams gifted Nigeria a late win in Cairo.
Nigeria took a step closer to becoming Africa Cup of Nations’ champions after Ronwen Williams’ late error gifted William Troost-Ekong a late win in a 2-1 triumph over South Africa in Wednesdays’ quarter-final.
Bafana Bafana, who shocked hosts Egypt in the previous round, had equalized with 19 minutes remaining in Cairo when Bongani Zungu headed home and the match was seemingly headed for extra-time.
New reports have it that some operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, allegedly shot dead one person and left multiple suffered during a funeral procession in Rumuosi, Obio-Akpor local government area of Port Harcourt, the Rivers State on Monday.
It’s reported that the procession was for the burial of one Aleruchi Woko, who was allegedly killed by a military personnel during a protest over the deplorable state of Nkpolu Junction on the East-West road in Nkpolu, last November.
Eyewitnesses say the incident happened at about 9.30 am when some youths who had gone to carry the corpse of late Aleruchi Woko at a mortuary in Rumuosi, began robbing shop owners and residents with machetes.
The incident resulted into panic as residents and shop owners quickly locked up their homes and shops and scampered for safety.
“Some Policemen who witnessed the suspected hoodlums wearing black T-shirts and black trousers and clutching sharp machetes while robbing traders of their wares began shooting at them. Gun shots were heard in and around Nkpolu community. Some of Tricycle riders drove recklessly as part of the burial procession,” the eyewitnes said.
When contacted over the incident, the Community Development Committee Chairman of Nkpolu Community, Achinike Orubuogwu, said:
“The young man killed by the Police and the other one nursing bullet wounds are not indigenes of the community, but sympathizers who came to join us when went to the mortuary to carry the corpse of our brother.”
The Rivers State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, DSP Nnamdi Omoni, who confirmed the incident said that the Command had gathered enough intelligence report that there would be security breach by hoodlums who would cash on the burial of the late Woko and had to deploy officers and men to forestall their plans.
A corp member who was deployed to a school in Port Harcourt for her service year, has narrated how she was rejected, because she refused to sleep with a man she met at the school.
Apparently, the man is supposedly the proprietor of the school.
The alleged school’s proprietor had promised her an accommodation and leisure in her service year, but refused to sign her acceptance letter after she rejected sleeping with him.
Instagram user @di.zire who shared the story, also revealed that the man threatened to tell NYSC authorities that the corps member rejected the Primary Place of Assignment (PPA) herself. She wrote;
I was minding my business today as usual, then i hear my friend going on and off with this babe on the phone. He was trying to calm her down. After over thirty minutes on the phone, he explains that she went to her PPA which is a school in portharcort today and the man she met there said for him to accept her letter she would have to sleep with him and they would be doing so as she serves in the school, promising her accommodation and that she wouldn’t have to come to work everyday.
I called her back, asked if she was okay, still in tears she said no, and explained the same thing my friend had explained. He threatened her saying that he would say she rejected the PPA herself…. My dear thought that would be an issue and was pleading but still refusing the offer and he refused to accept the letter, sticking to his condition. I told her to just go straight the secretariat and make a complaint and that she should be happy about the rejection letter. It doesnt matter who makes the rejection.
At least she’s out of that ridiculous school. She wants to be taken out of that local government because she says its a small town, the schools are close and they have links with eachother. But then yet again, who knows what perverted soul she would meet at the secretariat and disregard her complaints? What about the female students in that school, are their parents aware of this perverted fool they placed their children under. Who knows how many students are being sexually harassed.

Now you might ask…’what is she doing?’ My answer is my current look is intentional in connection to my current sound. ‘will it be permanent?’ – I don’t think so???…who knows? I’m just exploring my many sides and loving myself in the process….I’m just Omawonder”

According to the Clay County Sheriff’s Office, over the weekend, Liberty police were searching for a Missouri man who had a warrant out for his arrest.. The person was wanted for possession of a controlled substance.

“But his scoops went beyond the political, he exclusively reported the case of British born Patrick Chadwick, who slapped a Nigerian sales girl, Adekunbi Adeite, at the Kingsway Stores in Lagos (this despicable business of slapping women seems to have been around for a while), and how the UAC and some other journalists tried to cover it up. It became a national issue and the UAC eventually punished the culprit and he resigned.”
