President-elect Donald Trump traveled to the White House to meet President Barack Obama today, and the two recapped their meeting in a brief press appearance in the Oval Office afterward.
“I just had the opportunity to have an excellent conversation with President-elect Trump,” Obama said. “It was wide-ranging. We talked about some of the organizational issues in setting up the White House, we talked about foreign policy, we talked about domestic policy. .
And as I said last night, my number one priority in the coming two months is to facilitate a transition that ensures the president-elect is successful.mI believe that it is important to all of us, regardless of party and regardless of political preferences, to now come together, now work together, to deal with the many challenges that we face.”
Trump spoke next, and took a respectful tone toward Obama — “I have great respect,” he said. He said that their meeting was supposed to be brief, but, it “lasted for almost an hour and a half, and as far as I’m concerned it could have gone on for a lot longer.
We discussed a lot of different situations, some wonderful and some difficulties. I very much look forward to dealing with the president in the future, including counsel, to explain some of the difficulties, some of the high-flying assets, and some of the really great things that have been achieved.”
The Akwa Ibom State Police Command arrested one Peace Chukwuemeka, for stealing a one-month-old baby from the baby’s mother.
The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, ASP Cordelia Nwawe, who disclosed this while addressing newsmen on the activities of the command in Uyo on Tuesday, November 8th, said that the suspect lived in the same compound with the mother of the baby at Mbak Itam in Itu Local Government Area.
Ms Nwame said that the family unit of the command through intelligence trailed the suspect, rescued and reunited the baby with her mother.
“In November, the ACID Section through the Family Unit recorded a great feat by bringing back a one month and some few days old baby to her mother in Akwa Ibom. The suspect, who has been married for some years without a baby, left Lagos state to Uyo, stayed in a compound in Mbak Itam with the intention to steal a baby from her neighbour. The family unit through intelligence report was able to rescue the baby back to the mother,” Mani said.
The baby’s mother, Fatima Ibrahim, said that the suspect was staying with them in the same compoun, adding that she “drugged” her to sleep before stealing her baby.
In her confessional statement, Peace Chukwuemeka said she was married for 10 years and was desperate to have a baby but however, denied drugging before stealing the baby.
“I did not give anything to the mother, it was a coincident she was asleep and I seized that opportunity to take the baby. I have married for 10 years now so I needed a baby of my own. I took the baby to my mother in the village but she refused to collect her from me. So I came back to Akwa Ibom and the owner of the baby started asking me of her baby, so I was arrested,” Chukwuemeka said.
Instagram user, Uruemurie Ewoma Frank has shared a testimony of how his sister who couldn’t walk for four months was healed after their parents took her to church;
#GodDidIt #Testimony#RealGod
So here I was two days ago, talking about how my baby sis has literally lived in pain and depended on drugs. It’s been tough but we never lost our faith.. Fast forward to today, this morning she was in pain. She was ready to give up the fight. It was that bad..
But Dad and Mum says “We are going to thank God today no matter what.. So they increased the dosage of the pain killer, put her on the wheelchair and rolled her to church.
AND GOD SHOWED UP… HA HA.. GOD SHOWED UP… GOD SHOWED UP.. people have said we were not praying enough, we should try all kinds but when Faith is in God, He moves..
The person who hasn’t walked for four months, is running, jumping, dancing and walking.. God did it.. God does wonders..
He’s a miracle worker.. I’ve been so excited, I cannot hold back…. Picture on the left taken on Friday Picture on the right taken this evening…. When the lord turned it… God is REAL. PRAYER WORKS.

In every Nigerian bank you go to, you meet different kinds of people with different purpose. Nigeria banks are always very crowded and you wonder why so many people are always in the bank.
The kind of people you find in a Nigerian bank can be funny, you might not be able to laugh at that moment but something keeps reminding you of whatever you must have seen in the bank.
These are the sets of people I bet you will find in a Nigerian bank:
These set of people are the ones that always have problems with the bank door. They door keeps rejecting them, saying “Please go back and remove the metal object found on you…”
They can only be allowed to go in once they remove any metal thing on their body.

A primary school teacher, identified as Collins Obi, has been arrested by policemen for allegedly having anal sex with his student.
Obi, 20, was arrested in Ibadan, Oyo State, after allegedly having anal sex with a 10-year old pupil in Asaka Itamaya area of the city.
The teacher was said to be taking the boy in extra mural classes when he lured him into a house in the neighbourhood and defiled him on Monday.
The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in the state, Mr. Adekunle Ajisebutu, said Obi was arrested following a report by the victim’s mother at the Iyaganku police station.
The victim had reported the abuse to his mother. Consequently, police detectives swooped on the neighbourhood and holed Obi out of his hiding.
According to Ajisebutu a Superintendent of Police (SP), the suspect confessed to the crime, claiming that he was introduced to sodomy by an older friend who is now at large.
The police spokesman said the victim was later taken to hospital for medical attention.
Facebook user, Ashley Boyer, shared her experience while she was buying gas, how some “white-ish” people came out from their cars to harass her just moments after Donald Trump emerged as President.

Islamic State jihadis have given praise to the victory of Donald Trump while stating that the billionaire “fool” will ruin America himself allowing terror groups to take control of the country.
The Republican was branded a “donkey” by militants who warned his election is “an indication of the end of the American empire“.
One ISIS jihadi said:
“What we want is their country be delivered to a donkey like Trump who will destroy it.
In the end, they are all our enemies and we will only meet them on the battlefields.
It is either them or us. We ask Allah to make their destruction caused by their own plans and their death come among themselves.
The world is going to experience a change and this change will put Islam in the leadership position as the end result.”
It comes hours after group al-Qaeda said the billionaire’s White House win will give extremists across the Middle East a common enemy, sparking fears of a major attack on US soil.
Nollywood debonair actor, IK Ogbonna‘s wife, Colombian beauty, Sonia Morales, who loves to give inspiring and motivational quotes shared this racy photo above with her husband and wrote:
“I break the norms and I create them. I can not just “obey”. I don’t “serve”. I do MAGIC. I have superpowers. I change lives around me. I am my own kind of a woman.
Imperfect,far from Saint,I am a trouble and a challenge. Im not your boring and predictable “wife material”.
I have seen all shades of life and I don’t pretend – I embrace my own individual nature and that is what I am ,the most unconditionally loved for by the only person in this whole Universe who can deal with me without being my weakness but my deepest strength.”
The House of Representatives on Wednesday asked the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC and the Central Bank of Nigeria to immediately go after the promoters Mavrodi Mondial Moneybox, otherwise known as ‘MMM’ in Nigeria.
NDIC had also launched a plan to shut down MMM in the country – the motion of course, is not going so well with some Nigerians, who are participants of the scheme.
A bold participant, Ibraheem Musa Usman, who resides in Kano, took to social media to threaten the CBN and SEC, asking them to leave the scheme alone as it’s their money and they can do whatever they want with it.

Violence has broken out at anti-Trump rallies across America overnight as tens of thousands marched against the President-elect before angry mobs attacked police, started fires and shut down highways.
The streets of downtown Oakland in California were choked with smoke Thursday as police launched tear gas and protesters lit fires, in what became by some distance the most violent of the many protests against the election of Donald Trump, Daily Mail reports.
More than 6,000 protesters were seen on the streets of Oakland with an initially peaceful march down a cop-lined street turning nasty after some protesters threw bottles at officers and torched a police car. An office block was also attacked, daubed with ‘f*** Trump‘ graffiti and then set alight.
And thousands more filled streets in Los Angeles before taking over the 110 Freeway while other protesters gathered outside City Hall, lighting fires and waving Trump heads on sticks. There were 14 arrests.
In New York, home of the President-elect, at least 30 people were arrested when cops cracked down on twin demonstrations in Columbus Circle and at Trump Tower.
As many as 7,500 demonstrators were believed to have been split between the two locations, chanting ‘Black Lives Matter‘ and ‘Donald Trump, go away, racist, sexist, anti-gay.’
An article published by Greenbarge Reporters describes how on the 5th of May, 2016 during the Thursday Deliverance Service at the Divine Hand of God Prophetic Ministry International Abuja, the man of God Prophet (Dr) Emmanuel Omale predicted the outcome of the 2016 United States Presidential Election.
According to the article, Prophet Omale prophesied that front-line Presidential nominee of the Republican party, Donald Trump will emerge the party’s flag bearer and go on to win the 2016 US presidential election but that he has been sent by devil to come and cause war.
He said:
“Christians launch serious prayers, Donald Trump will emerge winner because he is coming from the devil to bring war, and will force everyone to use the “666” mark.
“I see confusion all over the world. I see Donald Trump, we need to pray. I see him winning the election, and he won and there was war everywhere and we are being forced to start using 666 number. There was war everywhere. We need to pray.
“If we don’t pray I saw him winning because it is devil that is bringing him to bring war to the whole world. We shall not see war, we shall not see war!
The service was held on Thursday May 5, the article published on May 9, and by November 9, exactly 6 months after, Donald Trump was declared the winner.

Officers of the Department of State Services (DSS) have raided two major Bureau de Change markets in Lagos and Abuja in a fresh attempt to end speculation in the foreign exchange transaction at the parallel market.
Sources at the market told Daily Trust that the DSS have earlier directed the officials of the BDCs association to peg the dollar at N400 while selling and N390 while buying from customers.
Immediately after the directives, the DSS operatives commenced the enforcement of the order by arresting those erring members that sold the dollar above N400 and or bought above N390 a dollar.
During the two-day operations, which took place between Tuesday and Wednesday, some traders were arrested.
Sources said about five operators were arrested in Abuja and Lagos as at yesterday.
When our reporter visited Zone 4, a cluster of BDC shops in Abuja, he noticed slow activities as both the traders and customers were jittery.
A trader who pleaded for anonymity said it was difficult to see the dollar to buy or sell in the market because, nobody was willing to sell at the new rates by the DSS.
He said when customers heard of the new rate of N390 a dollar they usually turned back.
He said the best way out was for CBN to flood the market with enough forex, instead of using force to address the problem.
When contacted, the spokesperson of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Mr Issac Okorafor, confirmed the activities of the DSS in the BDC market. He said most of the people arrested were unlicensed operators who were taking advantage of speculation to reap illegal money.
He said though the CBN had no hand in the raid, it was a welcome development for the market.

Grace Egbon an elderly lady in Benin City, the Edo capital, has donated a goat to President Muhammadu Buhari to show her admiration for “his selfless lifestyle and passion to liberate the masses.”
Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo received the ‘unique gift’ on behalf of the president.
Egbon, a supporter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), registered in Ward 7, Oredo Local Government Area of Edo state, said she had longed to meet the President to show her admiration for his quality of leadership.
According to NAN, a window of opportunity opened to Egbon when the President was scheduled to commission the ultra-modern Samuel Ogbemudia College in Benin City, during his just concluded two-day working visit to Edo.
She braced the odds and came all the way with her surprise gift to the President which she had kept for the special occasion.
She tore through the thick crowd, making her way straight to the President who at the time had finished the official engagement and was heading for his waiting car.
Many in the crowd got emotional seeing the elderly lady pull through the crowd with the goat, determined to make a presentation to the President.
Gov. Oshiomhole, who noticed the security cordon between the lady and the President, came to her rescue.
He (Oshiomhole) alighted from the President’s convoy to receive the goat on behalf of the President,” a protocol official at the scene of the incident told NAN.
She thanked the President for accepting the gift which was handed over to protocol officials.
In his remarks on behalf of the President, Gov. Oshiomhole commended Grace for her kind gesture.
Yesterday, the controversial Clinton prophesy on TB Joshua’s Facebook page was deleted and after wide spread backlash, it was later re-uploaded.
Recall yesterday a number of people have flooded social media platform, Twitter with interesting tweets about Prophet TB Joshua as his prophecy on the US election was not realized.
The General Overseer of the Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), predicted that the Democrat candidate, Hillary Clinton, would win the US Presidential election in a ‘narrow victory’ against Republican candidate, Donald Trump.
“Ten days ago, I saw the new President of America with a narrow win. “The new President will be facing several challenges over many issues, including: passing bills, attempts to possibly pass a vote of no confidence on the new President. “The boat of the new President will be rocked. “By the way, in order not to keep you in suspense, what I frankly saw is a woman,” a post on TB Joshua Ministries Facebook page, Sunday read.
On the contrary, Donald Trump shattered expectations on Tuesday as he emerged winner.
Trust twitter to buzz with this development. See them here.
Meanwhile, some of his Facebook followers have fiercely defended the prophesy, saying it will still come to pass or God changed his mind at the last minute.
See below:
Why are men unfaithful? Believe it or not, it’s not always about sex. In a study of cheating husbands, about half said they did the deed because they felt neglected by their wives.
Only 7% did it out of sexual desire for someone else. So how can you keep your partner from straying? We went to the source—the husbands!—to find out exactly why men cheat and how you can keep it from happening.
“It felt like my wife stopped thinking I was attractive. She kept telling me how gross my gut was and pining over George Clooney lookalikes,” says *Jeff.
Think about how you would react if your guy compared you to movie stars and made you feel unattractive. So always treat your man like he’s a hunka, hunka burning love,and he’ll want to stay solely your hunk.

– You can say that it is insensitive calling girls with a lot of flesh, FAT and it is better when they are referred to as BIG
– The word FAT, however, drives the point home and I prefer using it in this article because it will communicate effectively
Bigger girls have their advantages and they are awesome people to date and hang around. They will laugh and smile a lot and that will make your day. This is why you should consider changing your taste.
Fat girls know very well that their looks will probably not arrest your attention like curvy smaller women. To solve this they will often appear charming and sociable hence will click with you in no time.
Attitude is a word they leave with you to describe the other women with smaller physiques.

On Election Day 2016, I urged all my friends to go out and vote for Donald Trump with the following message:
“Get out and vote for the unborn fetus, get out and vote for God ordained marriage between a man and a woman, get out and vote against transgender bathrooms, get out and vote against Roe V Wade, get out and vote for Donald J.
Trump! He might not be perfect, but he will promote those conservative values that have kept a check on the moral fabric of society and nominate conservative Supreme Court Justices,”
’I had called. So many African Americans and Black Africans were appalled by my support for Donald Trump ever since my interview on the BBC on November 1st, 2016 when I called for Africans and others eligible to vote in the US elections to vote Donald Trump.
And why were my people so appalled? Because we are an emotional people who take decisions based on what we want right now rather than what we want eventually. Most African Americans voted for Hillary because they bought into the lie peddled by the mainstream media that Trump is a racist. Most Black Africans supported Hillary because they did not want Trump to clamp down on immigration into the US.
But my people failed to take into account the big picture! What are our cultural values as a Race? Do we as Black people, whether African American or Black African, really support gay rights and gay marriage? Trust our copy cat culture, if Hillary had been elected she would have strengthened the gay marriage lobby and her Supreme Court nominees would have made it a reality and the next thing you know we would want to copy it hook line and sinker.
As a race, we suffer disproportionately from abortions more than any other race in America. African Americans and Black Africans make up 13% of the US populations yet 37% of all abortions in the US are done by Black women. It has gotten to the point where the most dangerous place for a Black child to be is in its own mother’s womb! Can we afford to continue with such a shameful record?
We need somebody that is committed to ending Roe V Wade and outlawing the practice of on demand abortion. I believe in a woman’s right to choose but that right is asserted by any woman the minute she chooses to have unprotected sex.
But let me get technical. What did Hillary Clinton do for Nigeria or Africa when she was Secretary of State? My people are just too sentimental and forget how she dithered and resisted naming Boko Haram as a terrorist group. We have forgotten how she led the effort to use the Leahy Law to frustrate Nigeria’s efforts to buy weapons from the
US and when we could not buy from them she and her contemporaries also frustrated our efforts to buy from Israel.
The annoying thing is that it was her disastrous intervention in Libya that led to the escalation of the Boko Haram insurgency because the overthrow of Gaddafi destabilized much of North and West Africa by putting sophisticated light weapons in the hands of non state actors like Boko Haram.And yet when we as a nation were faced with the consequences of her actions she would not help us. Nigeria was reduced to buying weapons for cash on the Black Market. The thing is that Gaddafi may have been a nasty piece of work but at least he made Libya stable.
Today, ISIS has a foothold in Libya and from there supports insurgents like Boko Haram and Al Shabbab who are causing instability in Nigeria and Kenya.
My big question to Nigerians especially is this-Who Hillary Clinton Epp?
Our follow follow is too much. In real economic terms what did we stand to gain from Hillary Clinton? Though I have been a lifelong Republican since first coming to America as a nine year old, I suspend that status in 2008 to support a fellow Black man, President Obama out of purely primordial reasons (he is Black as I am) but to be honest, what has Africa and Nigeria gained from eight years of Obama in the White House?
He never visited Nigeria. He never packaged any special economic package for Nigeria or Africa. Say whatever you want to say about former President George W Bush but no other US President has been as radical in his support to Africa as Bush number 43! For giving more than $5 billion in humanitarian aid to Africa annually, President Bush goes on record as having given more assistance to Sub Saharan Africa than any other president including President Obama!
AIDS and Malaria are some of our biggest challenges in Africa and Bush met us at the point of our need. Before President George W Bush intervened in the fight against HOV/AIDS, only 100,000 Africans were on antiretrovirals but in 2003 he set up the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and by the time he left office in 2009 that number had grown to 2 million. When Congress resisted his efforts for funding to the time of $1.2 billion to fight malaria in Africa in 2007 Bush persuaded them by saying “There’s no reason for little babies to be dying of mosquito bites around the world.”
Now I ask you, what similar effort have President Obama and Hillary put forward while they had power? Yes Obama has held summits like the first US/Africa Leaders Summit and the US Africa Business Summit but do we eat summits? What came of it other than talk and mostly Obama talking down at African leaders in a way he would never do with Asian leaders.
At least with Trump we know that he will take on ISIS and other radical Islamic groups and that includes Boko Haram! Moreover, Trump has pledged to curb China’s global dominance and to do that he would have to match China dollar for dollar in Africa and when China and the US compete Africa gains.
But be that as it may I am very proud to have publicly supported Donald Trump from the beginning to the end. Where are all those people who insulted me for my support for Donald Trump? They all seem to have gone missing in the ‘other room’!
You all remember the soldier-themed pre-wedding photoshoot of a female officer and her boo that cause a stir online? Well the couple in a recent interview decided to share their love story and the idea behind the shoot. He said:
“We’ve known each other since we were kids and I have always been fond of her, we started dating in the year 2000. In 2005 we had a misunderstanding and we parted ways, contrary to what people may think about uniform women, they are very emotional and aren’t that really different from your everyday girl. After eight years of casual friendship , on February 14th 2016 I gave her a call and the rest is history. I’ve always known deep inside that she would be the woman I would marry.
About the pre wedding pictures, firstly we never imagined they would attract the kind of attention they did. Funny enough we took about five different sets of pictures and that was the only one she was on uniform.
We just wanted to try something different and funny , its funny to see different kind of reactions coming from the photos .
Those pictures represents how lively , jovial ,accommodating ,understanding and friendly our marriage will be, it wasn’t intended to belittle the force or the men and women who give their lives everyday for a safer Nigeria neither was it intended to make the Military look superior to the Civilians.
It was just us having fun , Everyday people come up with different concepts for pre wedding shoots, this was ours and we love it .
Abba Peter Ameh was killed in a ghastly motor accident two days after collecting his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) certificate.

His brother posted a tribute on Facebook. Read below:
“What is the meaning of life
Why do we live like death is far from us and then it storms like whirlwind
The happiness of life doesn’t even last long
One moment it’s a good news the next moment it’s a terribly bad news
Several things encourages us to keep running the heavenly race but certain things are beyond our understanding.
The death of a great soldier like you Abba Peter Ameh is discouraging
We wake up everyday hopeful and busy rushing around living life that we forget to ponder why we live.
Abba Peter Ameh, you struggled and fought to the end collected your NYSC certificate on Friday and you were happily coming home to show mama and everyone but you got snatched by death on Sunday.
So I ask what is life?
One minute struggle the next is death!
WHY THE STRESS??????
remember that you left your humble twin here and mama is not finding it funny with your sudden departure.
I have cried and making sure I don’t make the mistake of questioning God cos you are His and with Him. I know the devil has no hand in your death because God allowed it.
The biggest comfort now is that you are with Jesus.
You lived well but not long enough, you were so humble and loved Jesus, you were an encouragement to many that indeed God is faithful. We will miss you o it still feels like a dream but God is our comfort.
Sleep well brother!!!!!
We will miss you especially your twin”

General overseer of the Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN), ‘Prophet’ Temitope Balogun Joshua, called the United States presidential election for Democrat Hillary Clinton, days before the first ballot was cast in anger.
It was a Facebook post seen round the world.
“Ten days ago, I saw the new President of America with a narrow win”, the cleric wrote. “The new President will be facing several challenges over many issues including: passing bills, attempts to possibly pass a vote of no confidence on the new President.
“The boat of the new President will be rocked.
“By the way, in order not to keep you in suspense, what I frankly saw is a woman”.
First off, there’s no new President who doesn’t “get his boat rocked”.
It’s like saying the sun will rise at dawn.
TB Joshua was lying through his false teeth and he knew it.
The issue is that this goatee spotting cleric has been getting away with prophecies of this nature in the past. This time, he was found out.
He’s the expert at predicting the obvious. Something along the lines of Germany will win the World Cup or Barcelona will win the Spanish La Liga, one businessman will win the Governorship election in a South-West State or one prominent politician will die this year–pray!
People die every year across the world and prominent politicians will answer nature’s call at some point, like everyone else.
It’s a game of probability anyone can play and Joshua has proven himself adept at this game through the years.
But as the TV networks called the election for Donald J. Trump instead, TB Joshua’s Facebook post had disappeared.
And no, it wasn’t some kind of miracle, he manually deleted his own social media post after it became evident that his prediction had gone awry.
“A prediction by influential Nigerian TV evangelist TB Joshua that Hillary Clinton would win the US presidential election has been removed from his Facebook account”, screamed the BBC.
See your life outside, Temitope?
BBC added: “Mr Joshua told his congregation on Sunday that he “saw” a woman winning.
“After Donald Trump convincingly won Tuesday’s vote, visitors to the preacher’s Facebook page noticed the prophecy had been removed”.
A former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, joined in on the act.
“It is official. President-Elect Donald J. Trump. I am glad to have campaigned for you. Dear TB Joshua, who gave you your prophecy? My God that I serve is not a man that He will lie!”
Prophet Joshua was soon the object of intense ridicule online.
“Maybe he saw Donald in his vision grabbing a woman by the pussy”, tweeted Yinka Igbaroola.
Twitter user @SaemythEM, wrote: “According to TB Joshua’s law of hallucinations, next time you see a woman in your dream, don’t be so sure”.
There’ve been several memes to go with an embarrassing day at the office for TB Joshua.
For years, he’s fooled Nigerians and the world at large with his ‘working to the answer’ prophecies.
This may just be the best opportunity for the self acclaimed Prophet to retire from the business of churning out false predictions.
He was embarrassingly found out this time; and deleting his social media post cemented his reputation as one of the phoniest Pastors in the land.
Nobel laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka, has said he won’t destroy his United States’ residency permit until President elect, Donald Trump is inaugurated in 2017.
In a report by Vangaurd Newspaper, Soyinka reportedly made this known on Wednesday, November 9, 2016.
The writer reportedly said he will not destroy his residency permit until he sees what becomes of Trump’s administration after inaugurated into office.
“Why don’t we wait until Trump actually takes office? I am just going about my normal commitments, but definitely not getting into any more commitments. Let’s put it that way for now,” he said.
Days before the United States presidential election held, Soyinka had threatened to tear his permit should Republican candidate, Donald Trump emerge winner.
Following Trump’s victory on Wednesday, November 9, 2016, Nigerians had taken to social media to request that the Nobel laureate made through his threat.
A woman from South Carolina who made headlines when she gave birth to twin boys at Grand Strand Medical Center and named them Donald and Trump says she has no regrets for giving them those names. The proud mum said:
“We weren’t planning on naming them after Donald Trump at first, but it is clearly a divine sign that our next president shows up in our state on the day my little sunshines are born” explained Latifa Huxley, proud mother of the two.
“Donald Trump is a bright and successful man with strong moral values that represents what America is all about.” she told local reporters, visibly emotional.
The family strongly believe the timing of the South Carolina GOP primary with the birth of their twins in February was no coincidence.
Father of the twins Damian Huxley said:
“It is truly a blessing and a God-given sign”. “After all the division Obama has brought upon this country, it is a great privilege to have my children born on this auspicious day,” he explained with pride.
“I don’t care if my president is black or white, all I know is that Trump is a man of his word and we believe him when he says that he will make America great again,” he adds.
Contrary to popular belief that a person has to be called to the work of God, Ghanaian actor Majid Michel says his new-found love for preaching is a genuine one inspired by his understanding of the Bible.
For quite some time now, Majid Michel has been in the news for what seems like a sudden turn over to a more spiritual life, which took many by surprise since he is perceived by many to be similar to bad boy characters he plays in movies.
Recently, he was spotted ministering at the Zoe Chapel International at Tabora, Accra where he was for the first time, seen mounting a pulpit and laying his hands on some of the congregants.
But the actor, in a recent interview on Hitz FM’s TIG Show with Franky5 revealed he has always been God-fearing.
“I had a great sense of guilt, so that limited my sinful nature. I fell a couple of times but could not continue, I always came up with a new to identify with the mistake and correct it,” he said.
Majid added “Then I discovered great revelations in the Bible. Growing up I hardly understood the word of God so as a result, I have discovered great revelations from reading the Bible. I understood it better and it’s simpler for me and that was my greatest urge to teach the word of God for people to understand it.”
For him, he has always been a pastor. “I didn’t hear a voice or see a dark cloud or hear the voice of God like the ocean sound or like waves pounding the sea. I didn’t have any experience, I did it as a pastor, well I have always been [a pastor].”
Recently, Majid Majid Michel, in an Instagram post, expressed disappointment at pastors who seek wealth and fame than the core job of winning souls and leading their congregations to Christ.
He expressed worry that some pastors these days do not focus on the dictates that come with their job but rather meddle in immoral acts and also compete against each other for fame and wealth.
For Tochukwu Egesi, Olayemi Oladosu, Rebecca Olowojoba, Titilayo Ogunbiyi and Obioma Ezeoka, it was a dream come true and excitement all the way, as they emerged the lucky winners in the maiden #FCMBFlexxtern contest. This means they each get a 3-month internship with either leading Nigerian lender First City Monument Bank (FCMB) or one of the organizations partnering with the bank on this initiative.
The #FCMBFlexxtern was designed by FCMB as part of its 2016 Customer Service Week to give vibrant smart and young Nigerians between the ages of 16-25 years an opportunity to gain first-hand experience in the business world.
The online contest was held on the Flexxzone, the exclusive microsite built around FCMB’s Flexx proposition and which provides relevant content to the Flexx target audience on a wide range of areas, including fashion, lifestyle, entrepreneurship and much more.
To qualify, candidates were advised to upload a 45-second video to YouTube with the hashtag #FCMBFlexxtern, explaining why they were the best person for the job and invite their friends to vote for them. After the public voting stage, a panel of judges had the task of independently rating the contestants, which led to the emergence of the winners.
On Wednesday, November 08, 2016, a reception was held in honour of the winners. The event which held at the FCMB Head Office was an opportunity to get to know the winners and introduce them to the organisations they would be working with respectively. In attendance were the new Flexxterns, representatives of the partner organisations (Dangote Group, Smooth FM, House of Tara and IrokoTV), as well as members of First City Monument Bank.
Speaking at the event, FCMB’s Divisional Head of Human Resources and Strategy, Felicia Obozuwa expressed delight at the quality of entries received from contestants and the passion that Nigerian youths demonstrate when given the right opportunity to positively express themselves. According to her, “It’s very fulfilling to see so many young Nigerians embrace and heartily participate in the various FCMB Flexx youth empowerment programs. The #FCMBFlexxtern initiative is especially important, because it gives students and young graduates an opportunity to gain hands-on workplace and business experience. We are honoured that through our Flexx product, we are in the position to contribute to the improving the lives of the youth in Nigeria. Certainly, there is more to come from Flexx and FCMB”.
