Akpororo replies Daddy Freeze: “How many church has fallen since you stopped paying tithes?”

Akpororo replies Daddy Freeze

It seems as thought we’d be having a Daddy Freeze-Akpororo Face-off..

It all started at the just-concluded Experience 2018, when Comedian Akporo called out Daddy Freeze for always attacking Pastors over tithing issues.

Akpororo replies Daddy Freeze

Paying of Tithes has been a major discussion on social media, with several folks having several opinions.

Daddy Freeze is one who says no one should pay tithes to church.

At yesterday’s experience, Akpororo reiterated that Daddy Freeze never wrote the Bible and so can’t tell anyone to stop paying tithe. You can read up here.

In response, Freeze wrote;

in fact I no wan see your bible, it\u2019s working for me\u201d really got me… Is #TheExperience now used to advertise the fact that bible study is no longer essential?

This public rejection of scriptural evidence, can only serve to highlight Apororo’s nescience of the subject matter, which sadly is in symphony with the untaught stance of most Pentecostal pastors, who subscribe to subjectivism in contradistinction to intellectualism.

However, my disappointment does not lie in Apororo, but moreso in Paul Adefarasin, who could allow someone so uncultivated in scriptural matters, address such a delicate issue as tithing on his platform, before the public.

Apororo’s paedolalia on stage brought to light an absurd level of benightedness that perhaps would have otherwise remained veiled.

Even Paul Adefarasin himself, despite more than 2 decades as a pastor, is still visibly struggling to acquire a more comprehensive understanding and as a result, offer a more punctilious thesis on the topic, without lending his endorsement, like most of his counterparts are, to emotional and sentimental assertions.

This resplendent display of utter ignorance could have been avoided, should the church have chosen not to employ the services of what would be regarded in civilized climes as a circus clown, to minister on the pulpit, which remains one of the huge demerits of mixing secular comedy with secular concert style events to attract a larger crowd.

Also, lest I forget, Apororo, it wasn’t a lion but a bear that attacked the boys in that Elisha story, read that bible bruv, it won’t bite you!

Akpororo has now fired back at the controversial OAP, he says Freeze shouldn’t drag the convener of the Experience, Pastor Paul Adefarasin into their ‘argument’.

Akpororo questioned how many churches have fallen down since Freeze stopped paying tithes.

Watch his reply to Daddy Freeze below;

Moment Police Exhumed Corpse Of Lady Who Was Buried By Her Boyfriend (video)

Yesterday, the men of the Rivers State Police Command, exhumed the decomposing corpse of a woman allegedly murdered by her lover in Rumuepirikom, Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of the state.

The woman identified as Better Ozige Nwabueze who was said to have been in a relationship with one Prince Udenna Uwabie, also known as J-Boy, was buried in her lover’s room after she was allegedly killed on Sunday, December 2, 2018.

According to reports, J-Boy and his lover had a disagreement after he accused her of having an affair with another man.

A brother to the deceased said when J-Boy was asked of his sister’s whereabouts since Monday that she had been missing, he said he did not know where she was.

He disclosed that while the search continued, the matter was reported at the Kala Police Station, and that the operatives later found out that J-Boy had murdered his sister.

It was observed that a large crowd had gathered around 10 am on Thursday at a house located along Wimpey, Ikwerre Road in Port Harcourt, where the deceased was buried, to witness the exhumation of the corpse by the police.

An eyewitness, who identified herself as Chika, said the police arrived the scene of the incident, went inside the suspect’s room, opened a shallow grave found in the room, and exhumed the decomposing corpse of a lady.

She said, “We only know the suspect as J-Boy; he is from Rumuepirikom, Obio-Akpor LGA, while the girlfriend hailed from Ndele in Emohua LGA. “Some police officers came on Thursday morning and exhumed the decomposing remains of the murdered woman right inside J-Boy’s room in Chime’s compound.

The suspect had since been arrested and is helping the police in their investigation and would soon be charged to court.

Drama as wife interrupts Pastor’s wedding with another woman.

A pastor was left red faced on Thursday, December 6, after his attempt to marry a second wife was interrupted by the first wife..

According to reports, the prominent Tanzania pastor, Julius Andrew’s first wife, Maria Stoni, stormed the church in Kibaha, where her husband was just about to exchange wedding vows with his new bride, simply identified as Stella. Maria, thereafter, interrupted the wedding.

Pastor Julius Andrew and his new lover Stella.

Maria was asked by the officiating minister, Bishop John Mzule, to prove that she was indeed Andrew’s wife.

Maria immediately produced a marriage certificate showing that she and Andrew exchanged wedding vows on September 25, 2010 at the Gospel Revival Assemblies of God church in Mlandizi, Tanzania.

Andrew and Stella had chosen the Gospel Revival Assemblies of God church in Mbagala Kuu as their wedding venue before changing it to another church in Kibaha.

The decision, sources say, was arrived at after Andrew learnt that his wife, Maria, had gotten wind of his plans.

Julius Andrew’s wife Maria Stoni.

However, before Andrew could exchange wedding vows with Stella at the Kibaha church, Maria stormed the ceremony and unleashed full proof showing she was a bonafide wife to the preacher.

Bishop Mzule inquired from Andrew whether he knew Maria, to which he responded in the affirmative. Andrew, however, claimed that he had been granted divorce from Maria.

Armed with “what looked like a divorce decree”, Andrew showed the document to Bishop Mzule, who dismissed it as “fake”, saying if it was indeed authentic, then Maria would be having her copy.

Husband of TVC presenter who said she can’t allow him bath their daughter speaks

TVC presenter, Morayo Akabashorun trended a few days ago after a controversial statement she made on live TV.

Apparently, Morayo opined that though she trusts her husband, but she can never allow him bath their daughter.

Morayo based her fear on the rapid increase of sexual assaults on little girls which in some cases is being carried out by their fathers.

Morayo and her other colleagues were having a discussion on rape viz-a-viz the relationship between father and daughter and if boundaries should be set in this kind of relationship.

“I actually trust my husband but I’m just being careful because people that have experienced this kind of situation, also trusted their husbands and yet, it happened”, she said.

Seeing that her statement had gone viral, with several backlash, she then tried to recant her statement, stating that her husband is not a pedophile.

Morayo even cried on TV, apologizing to her husband, See here.

Her husband in reaction had said:

“You need not fret about what my wife said on TV. My wife never in any way suggested I was a child molester. She stated her trust in her husband, then said she wouldn’t allow her husband bath her daughters.

Then the most negative of souls twisted her statements and ran with it. But if you notice, the enlightened ones among the commenters understood her message and agreed with her.

nWell, here is my take. I tell my daughters never to let any man put them on his laps, or touch them in certain places, or hold them in certain ways, or even see their nakedness. I personally extended those rules to myself to reinforce the teaching. That is the modus operandi I have chosen in raising my own daughters.

My wife merely spoke on TV as if she made those rules. Her mistake.

In a nutshell, as long as my wife or a female person is available, I shall never bath any of my daughters. Why should I, for God’s sake ? Others can be doing that in their own houses, but not in my house.

Buhari approves NYSC, Law School for NOUN graduates

President Muhammadu Buhari has assented to the National Open University Amendment Act, to allow the institution to operate as all other universities in the country.

Apparently, with this assent, the graduates of the NOUN can now participate in the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) and the Nigerian Law School.

Presidential Assistant on National Assembly (Senate), Senator Ita Enang announced the assent of the President while addressing State House reporters in Abuja.

“President Buhari has also assented to National Open University Amendment Act, which allows the National Open University to operate as all other universities, having the same power and functions and the same administrative structures eliminating possible discrimination as some use to want to have on its products and programmes.

“It has also allowed the establishment of some centers to be called study centers and given conditions for the establishment of such study centers,” he said.

The National Assembly had passed a bill for An Act to Amend the National Open University Act Cap N6 LFN 1983 (Amendment) Bill 2017’.

“May God punish you” – Daddy Freeze blasts woman who politely cautioned him for criticizing Shiloh 2018

Daddy Freeze blasts woman

Freeze called out a woman who politely cautioned him when he shared a series of posts criticizing the different religious events held in Lagos on Friday.

One of the posts shared by Freeze was a screenshot of a post shared by Bishop Feb Idahosa to publicize the events holding this weekend which includes; The Experience, Shiloh, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome’s birthday, and RCCG HG Congress.

In his caption, Freeze said that God destroyed Shiloh and the Nigerian man of God is bringing it back.

A woman replied politely asking Freeze to read the book of revelation and cautioned him to be careful. But Freeze blasted her instead.

See the exchange below.

How did this Ibadan boy generate 30 million in 3 months from same mini importation business everyone is doing?

Well, the answer is SIMPLE!

He did the OPPOSITE of what everyone is doing.

Here’s exactly what he did:

* First, he found a solid HOT in demand product.

No, he didn’t follow the old white-washed way everyone uses… that involve looking out for already selling products on FB, such that by the time you bring them in and start selling, the product may have been saturated 🙁

Instead, he used a brand NEW method;

…which involves using Aliexpress to find a HOT (put fire smiley here) in demand product;

A product people can easily buy without thinking of the cost implications.

…a product that has almost zero competition.

This took about 5 minutes.

To further authenticate the ‘HOTNESS’ of the product, he spent about N1,000 on FB ad… where there were a lot of ravings for the product. About 23 persons indicated interests to have the product immediately, not minding the cost.

HOTNESS confirmed!

He paused the ad, and headed over to 1688 portal, where he imported the product, at the cost of $0.4, equivalent of N150 for each. GOLD!

The next thing he did was the GAME CHANGER!

He reversed engineered the process.

He set up a UNIQUE but simple system he calls… “The 1 Pager Sales Machine”. Took about 10 minutes.

Then with 2 clicks of the mouse… he activated 2 POWERFUL features on the 1 pager sales machine… which are responsible for increasing conversion by 200%.

One of the feature enables people to directly place their order from the 1 pager machine, without having to call or Whatsapp. This way, you almost ‘force’ them to make decisions instantly, so that life doesn’t get on their ways and they forget 🙂

The second feature serves as a social proof, popping out names of people who already bought from the page… thereby putting the minds of prospective buyers at rest, and helping them make their buying decision easier.

After that… he linked the 1 pager system with a special line of code he copied from FB.

What this code does is to authorize FB to only charge him only for sales made.

This means that, if someone clicks on his FB ad, comments or likes… he is not charged… until the person actually places their order.

At the end, FB only charges him for real orders… and not engagement on his site.

This way, he pays less… and make MORE!

So in summary,

Landing Cost for each of the products at N350 (including shipping)

Cost of advertising one product to get a sale: N500

Cost of shipping to customer: N1,500

That put his total expenses at N2,350

He sells at N15,000 for one.

Hence smiles home with a gross profit of N12,650 on each

He averages about 800 to 1200 sales monthly.

Do the maths!

That’s about 10m monthly.

Now, this strategy might look like it’s difficult right?

Almost everyone would think so.

…but by the time, you get a CLEARER explanation and analysis of how each of the steps work, you’ll be wowed it could be so simple.

If you want that analysis, bravo.

I have gotten the same “30m in 3 months” guy to give just that.

I only robbed Yahoo boys, not innocent people – Robbery suspect

A robbery suspect who was arrested alongside his colleague by operatives of the Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Adeniji-Adele Annex, has disclosed that they only robbed yahoo boys.

The suspects – Sunkanmi Emmanuel, aka Federal, 30 and 28-year-old Ahmed Agunbiade, aka Omojoyibo who reportedly specialized in robbing club goers of their belongings, including motorcycles in the communities, were arrested last week in the Igando area while they were reportedly going for a robbery operation.

The police officers also arrested one Dotun Ogunsanya, aka Dotman, for buying stolen phones and motorcycles from the syndicate while a commercial motorcycle rider, Nurudeen Agbeyewo, was nabbed for allegedly taking Federal and Omojoyinbo for operations.

Punch reported that 15 motorcycles, three cut-to-size guns, cartridges and a plasma television, were recovered from the robbery suspects who were arrested following complaints to the officer-in-charge of FSARS, Adeniji, DCP Ibrahim Kaoje.

“Emmanuel, aka Federal lives at Totowu, Ogun State while Omojoyibo resides in Igando, Lagos State. A river separates the two communities. “They specialised in robbing people at night at gunpoint. Three guns were recovered from them. They have a standby motorcyclist who takes them to locations where they carry out their operations. The two prime suspects (Federal and Omojoyibo) were traced to a hotel at Totowu. A motorcycle was recovered from them.

“Ogunsanya, aka Dotman is the major receiver. There are other suspects at large who sold stolen items to him. Federal is a member of Eye Cult. They would go to clubs and hotels and rob visitors there while they were leaving. They terrorise Idimu, Igando and Ikotun areas of the state,” a police source said.

However one the arrested robbery suspects, a 30-year-old father of five disclosed that they only robbed yahoo boys and not innocent people.

He said, “I came to Lagos in 1998. I was an apprentice mechanic. In 2003, the government demolished my boss’ shop and he went back to his village. I became a commercial motorcyclist. After some time, it was seized by the police. I joined Eye confraternity in 2015. Our leader bought a gun for me. He is dead now.

“I started using the gun to rob. I would go to clubs on Fridays and mingle with Yahoo boys who spent lavishly there. As they were leaving, I would follow them. On getting to a deserted place, I would point the gun at them and collect their money and phones.

“I usually freed Eye cult members among them once they told me they did not have money. I have collected about six phones and sold them to Dotman. I got to him at Totowu area, where I live. I don’t rob innocent people. It is Yahoo boys who have money that I rob. I use the money I get to take care of my family. I have five children from two wives.”

I got burnt while playing Sango in church – Wale Adebayo

Wale Adebayo

Wale Adebayo, the Nigerian actor who became popular in 1997 after he played a lead role in the movie ‘Sango’ has disclosed that he got burnt while playing same character in church.

Wale Adebayo who sympathized with a student of the University of Ibadan who recently got burnt while playing the part of Sango, said;

“I have been playing the part of Sango since I was a kid. Even when I was in the church, we had a cultural troupe and I always acted Sango and of course, I would need to make fire come out of my mouth.

“This was in 1988. When I got into the university in 1992, the church was opening our Ibadan missionary building. The Catholic Youth Organisation of Nigeria presented a cultural play as we had always done since we were children. During the play, when all the ladies bowed before Sango, I came from behind and breathed fire.

“What I had always done, which worked was to put kerosene in my mouth and spit it out, then the fire comes out. That has always been the routine. On this particular day, reverend fathers, governors, and other dignitaries were seated. I did my normal stuff, but unfortunately for me, the play was done outdoors and it was a windy day. I did not take cognisance of the wind and that was how I got burnt. I still have the scars on my hand till date.

“Immediately I breathed the fire with kerosene in my mouth, the wind blew it back at me. My mother was in the crowd, I am her only son and she was so scared that I heard her shout before I started feeling the pain. I still had to finish the show. So, anytime someone tags me in any of those Sango mishaps on social media, they do not know that I quickly go to the victim’s page to make sure the person is alright. I would make a comment and probably follow the person. People do not know why I do that but it is because I have had a similar experience before.”

On if there could be more to such experiences than meets the eye, Wale Adebayo told Saturday Beats;

“I would not say that it is diabolical but there are things that are just beyond explanation when it comes to the African culture and religion. We might have successfully alienated ourselves from it but it is something we should take seriously. I am confused. I know my religion as a Catholic is strong but I also know that when we were practising the African religion, it was strong as well.

“Anything that has always been strong has the potential to haunt you if you disrespect it. For me, if we disrespect our deities, they would come back to haunt us. If we go out of our way to disrespect it, there would be consequences regardless of how little they are. There are stories that I could tell but I would not want to go into them,” he said.

Bullies almost made me drop out of school – Cobhams Asuquo recounts

Cobhams Asuquo recounts

Veteran Nigerian music producer, Cobhams Asuquo who has been blind from birth has revealed that bullies almost made him drop out of school.

Cobhams who grew up in a military barracks in Jos, Plateau State, disclosed that though his parents didn’t have much, however they gave him so much love. Here are excerpts from his interview with Eric Dumo;

You had your earliest childhood in a military barracks in Jos, Plateau State, what was that period of your life like?

That period was fun because I was able to do all the things most children around could do despite my visual impairment. I remember rolling tyres on the streets with the other children back in those days. I was very competitive. If any child did something around me, I found a way to do it better.

My parents didn’t have much but they gave me so much love. I would say I am a product of love. My visual impairment was never an issue of concern as a child.

Later, my father, who was in the army, was posted to Lagos, so we lived at the Ikeja Military Cantonment.

Were you able to start school as and when due or were there delays as a result of your situation?

I started primary school when I was 10 years old at the Pacelli School for the Blind and Partially Sighted Children in Lagos. I had learnt a lot of things from my brothers and sister before I started, so it was quite easy for me to fit in. I listened to a lot of radio programmes as a child, so this increased my understanding of a lot of things.

I attended a boarding primary school and for me, the environment and atmosphere were very different from what I had been used to at home. The shock was such that I wanted to drop out of school in primary two. The routine was quite a lot for a young boy like me who had been used to being woken up by his mother and asked what he wanted for breakfast.

Also, the head boy of the school then didn’t like me much because I spoke with an accent I picked up from watching television which they couldn’t understand. He and a few other boys did all they could to make life difficult for me. The situation got to me and I wanted to drop out of school at that point.

Fortunately for me, a lot of those boys passed out the following year, so things became much easier for me in school. As a matter of fact, I soon became a ringleader myself as time went by. It was an interesting period of my life.

For those who think that having a disability is the end of the world, what words do you have for such people?

I think such persons should take a look at my life. The fact that I am where I am today is testament to the fact that they can do 10 times more.

According to TMZ, she does not want to be involved in the drama as she insists that she has never spoken with Offset or made out with him.

Cuban Doll says she’s talked to Cardi B about the current cheating scandal involving Offset, and the two rappers have cleared the air.

“Cardi hit me up,” the 20-year-old Texas rapper told TMZ. “She knows I have nothing to do with that.”

Doll denied the rumors yesterday in a short tweet writing,

“I never went to new or lean leave me alone !” She clarified with TMZ that she believe the entire situation is a ploy for attention. “It’s all based off her trying to get clout. It’s a bunch of clout chasing stuff,” she said. “Me and her have been fell out. We’re no longer friends.”

She claims she never even knew about the texts that circulated on the internet shortly after Cardi B announced her breakup with Offset.

“I never texted him. I never accepted no type of agreements with him,” she said. “I never knew about the texts since they got exposed.”

Summer Bunni, the other accused of being in planning a threesome with Offset before Cardi B gave birth to her daughter with Offset, Kulture, in an earlier video apologized for the text saying that she did not know the relationship between the two were that serious.

Nigerian man sentenced

A Nigerian man identified as, Eric David, has bagged 7 years in jail for trafficking a teenage girl from Lagos state to Mali.

A Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos, sentenced 25- year old man, Eric David, to seven years imprisonment for human trafficking.

The convict was arrested on the allegation of trafficking a 19 year old girl to Mali for prostitution.

Investigations revealed that after he had trafficked the victim to Mali, he returned to Nigeria to recruit more girls.

However, in the process, the victim was able to contact her sister, Juliet, who pretended to also be interested in travelling to Mali. When she contacted Eric and he agreed to come pick her, the suspect was nabbed.

A four-count charge was preferred against him when he was arraigned on the 5th of December 2018.

Due to the overwhelming evidences tendered by the prosecutor, the convict pleaded guilty to the charges and was sentenced to seven years imprisonment.
