In the presence of the Lord, there is fullness of joy! Can I get an Amen?! This poor widow is certainly going to be the happiest she can be as she was mightily blessed by the Omega Power Ministries.
The Church gifted the widow with the latest Lincoln navigator jeep – and according to the Church’s Facebook page, the poor widow sold the expensive jeep and used the money to start business.
All the dude had to say was “bless me with 10k” and lo and behold, the media personality is asking for his account number… Mummy toks! Please shower me with 100k!! It ain’t too much to ask!
The stunning media personality, who certainly is less bothered with the criticisms that has been trailing her ever since she gave an advice that people seem to have taken out of context, blessed yet another follower with money just days after she helped a lady with her handouts money.
Federal Government has said the released 21 Chibok schoolgirls were not swapped with Boko Haram prisoners – this is according to Lai Mohammed, minister of information and culture, when he spoke at a news conference in Abuja on Thursday.
The minister said that the government had assembled a team of medical doctors, social workers and psychologists to examine the girls when they arrive in Abuja.
He disclosed that they would be in the federal capital territory (FCT) on Thursday afternoon.
“We can confirm that 21 Chibok schoolgirls were release at 5:30am today, and flown to Kaduna. We expect them to arrive in Abuja soon. We have the names of the girls and we are now contacting their parents. As soon as that is done, we will release their names,” he said.
The minister emphasised that the release of the schoolgirls was not secured by a prisoner-swap deal with Boko Haram.
“Please note that this is not a swap, but a release,” he said. “The release of these girls does not mean an end to military operations, but it is a new phase in the war against insurgency.”
He said that the release of the girls was secured through “confidence building” with Boko Haram. Mohammed added that President Muhammadu Buhari was ready to do all he could to bring the insurgency to an end.
“Mr President has made it clear that whatever he can do to bring the insurgency under control he will do it,” he said.
When asked what the government gave in return for the girls, Mohammed insisted that nothing was given in exchange for them.
Meanwhile, the released Chibok girls are at peace as they were photoed munching and drinking after their release. (See Here)
Boko Haram, on Thursday, October 13, released 21 abducted Chibok girls.
The girls were among more than 200 who were kidnapped from Borno State in April 2014.
A military helicopter was said to have picked them up from the Banki area of the state where the terrorists dropped them off.
They were released following negotiations between the government and the sect, which were brokered by the International Red Cross and the Swiss government.
Reports had it that the girls were exchanged for four Boko Haram members but this has been denied by Information Minister, Lai Mohammed.

The BBC Hausa Service is under intense pressure from President Buhari and members of his cabinet not to air the recent interview granted by his wife, Aisha Buhari, which is due for broadcast on Saturday, according to Sahara Reporters.
Buhari is said to have reached out to his wife, who is currently in London, to stop granting further interviews to the media.
In excerpts that have been widely reported in the media, Mrs. Buhari is quoted as saying that the President had ditched those who really worked for his victory in the 2015 election and is instead focusing on those that didn’t participate.
The First Lady also said the President did not know a majority of his ministers before appointing them to office and expressed her concern that certain individuals are creating division within the party.
“What I am afraid for them is the rebellion of 15 million people,” says Mrs. Buhari at the end of the excerpt available to the public.

Nigerians are known to be creative for a lot of things and one of which is how we manipulate languages and putting them our own taste.
You wouldn’t agree more which is more juicy to the tongue between “pidgin English” and normal “English Language”… Of course it’s pidgin! Virtually every Nigerian can speak the Pidgin English!
But hey! Not only did we produce pidgin English, my dear, we also invented our words! How cool eh?!
Don’t be surprised when you find out you’re guilty of using these words that actually don’t exist!
Check them below:
1. Installmentally
How you tell the marketer of a good that you’ll be paying the money “Installmentally”… C’mon don’t lie, you know you say it! Hehe… The word is so wrong that even my text editor is underlining it red for me!
2. Night-Vigil
When else is a vigil suppose to hold?! In the morning… Google the meaning of vigil and you’ll be shocked yourself!
3. Disvirgin
“I was “disvirgined” at the age of…” There’s even a past tense for it! What you mean to say my dear, is “deflower”, after me, De-flow-er… There you go!
4. Wake Keeping (Wake keep)
It’s just so sad that they put the blunder in some programme booklets for funerals though… “wake-keeping: Friday – 1pm”… tsk tsk tsk…
5. Cunny
Oh no! It’s not the urban word meant as a euphemism for the female body part. When Nigerians say “cunny” they mean “cunning”… Yeah well, the words are sweet in our tongues eh?!

Omu-Aran (Kwara) – A 20-year-old senior secondary school student, Moji Agboola, died on Wednesday in Omu-Aran, Kwara, after taking poison.
The deceased, an SS1 student died at Adeyemo Hospital in the town due to complications in her body system as a result of the poison.
The girl was rushed to the hospital by her mother, Abigel, about three weeks ago. The deceased was said to have taken poisonous substance after she failed her promotion examination.
“It was the deceased’s sister who first gave us the clue to her sickness before she later confessed to the act at the hospital,” Abigel said at her residence on Thursday.
The deceased was initially taken to Christ Apostolic Church, Ori-Oke Irapada, along Omu-Aran-Ilofa Road for prayers and deliverance.
The prophet in-charge of the church, Christopher Owolabi, said a prayer team was quickly organised for the deceased, before she was taken to the private hospital for treatment.
It was at the hospital that she was confirmed dead. Meanwhile, a middle-age trader, simply identified as Iya Ayo, was also rushed to Omu-Aran General Hospital on Wednesday evening, for taking substance believed to be poison.
The mother of two, who lived around Orolodo area of the town, was said to have complained severally over her husband’s inability to offset their rent arrears.
A doctor at the hospital, who preferred anonymity, said at the hospital on Thursday that the woman was responding to treatment.
National Drug Law Enforcement Agency on Tuesday arraigned a 23-year-old deaf and dumb man, Abass Hamed, for allegedly dealing in cannabis sativa, popularly called marijuana.
Hamed was arraigned before Justice Jude Dagat of a Federal High Court in Lagos where the one count levelled against him was interpreted to him by a sign language interpreter, Francis Peters.
He was accused of dealing in one kilogramme of the substance and was said to have been arrested by NDLEA operatives on February 18, 2014, along Agege Motor road, Agege, Lagos.
The NDLEA prosecutor, Mr. Jerry Aernan, told the court that the accused acted contrary to Section 11(c) of the National Drugs Laws Enforcement Agency Act Cap N30, Law of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004, and was liable to be punished under the same law.
Aernan told the court that Hammed had been in custody since 2014 because the NDLEA had difficulty getting a sign language interpreter to interpret the charge to the accused in court.
When the charge was eventually read and interpreted to him on Tuesday through hand signal, Hamed signified that he understood the charge but pleaded not guilty.
He also nodded his head in denial, when asked if he sniffed the substance. Consequent upon Hamed’s not guilty plea, the prosecutor applied for an adjournment for commencement of trial.
Counsel for the accused, Mrs. O. Ozobia, did not object to the trial of her client, but urged the court to give a date for the hearing of his bail application.
Justice Dagat adjourned till November 5 and 7, 2016 for commencement of trial.
Kidnapped four pupils and two teachers of Lagos State Model College, Igbonla Epe, were ferried to safety in two speedboats by their abductors on Tuesday, it was learnt yesterday.
The victims – Abu, Emmanuel Okonkwo, Jeremiah Ruth, Isaac Adebisi – Junior School Vice Principal A. O. Oyesola and English teacher Lukman Oyerinde, were dropped off inside a forest where they trekked for over two hours before meeting their relatives.
According to The Nation, they were asked to walk in a line and not look back until they got to the point where family members had waited for over four hours.
The vice principal led the pack and the English teacher was asked to stay at the rear, leaving the pupils in-between. The victims were taken to the Epe General Hospital for check-up. Some of them were diagnosed with typhoid and malaria.
The father of one of the victims said:
“They spent many hours at the hospital and were later moved to a house in Epe where the principal addressed them.
“Two parents went to a designated place in Epe, where the kidnappers directed them to. They were at the place around 6pm and stayed there till about 10pm without any sign of the victims.
“As it was getting late, they said they were scared but had to remain there because that was the kidnappers’ instruction. So, around 10:30pm, they showed up, saying they had trekked for over two hours.
“I received the kidnap news with rude shock and since then, my family has been disorganised. I was not staying in Epe. My wife and I relocated to Epe ever since the bad news broke.
“I thank God when I was called by 10:30pm to inform me that the victims have been released. When I arrived at the school, I saw my son alive.
“I was not afraid that something sinister might happen to them because I have been praying alongside with many other sympathisers and I have the assurance that they would come out alive. God has really done it.
“Let’s not talk of ransom, I did not pay any. I don’t know whether anyone paid. I did not pay. My joy is that my son and others are hale and hearty. I want to thank the state government and the police for the roles they played while the victims were in captivity.”
Ruth’s sister who spoke on condition of anonymity said:
“We suffered hell when we went to pay N1 million for our sick child. The kidnappers after two days of playing pranks with us dropped them off in the bush and gave them a description on how to come out to the road.
“Our joy knew no bounds when we saw our children and their teachers coming out alive. I was deeply involved because our child was described as being ill, but, not as ill as we were made to believe”
Police spokesperson Dolapo Badmos, a Superintendent (SP) said they were neither assaulted nor traumatised. She stated that the medical examination carried out on the victims indicated that none of them was molested.
She said:
“They were released at about 11pm in the night. Our men from the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) and other units were on the ground to pick them. We would arrest the perpetrators soon. There is no hiding place for any criminal.”
Hollywood classic actress, Halle Berry has sent a powerful message to every women who have suffered any form of domestic violence – the actress, being a victim herself, revealed she was just 5 years old when she witnessed the horrific abuse of her mother by the man she was married to.
Her mom was beaten “day after day after day,” Berry said. She watched her get “kicked down stairs” and hit in the head with a wine bottle when she wasn’t looking.
“Knowing that she wanted nothing more then for her little girls to see her be empowered and be a woman of strength, but having no way to make that happen was heartbreaking for me,” Berry said.
To show support for women in that plight, Berry wrote on her IG page this morning:
My #WCW goes to all my QUEENS who have suffered any form of domestic violence. I think this quote captures it perfectly… ? “Dear women, Sometimes you’ll just be too much woman. Too smart, too beautiful, too strong. Too much of something. That makes a man feel like less of a man, which will start making you feel like you have to be less of a woman.
The biggest mistake you can make is removing jewels from your crown to make it easier for a man to carry. When this happens, I need you to understand, you do not need a smaller crown… You need a man with bigger hands.” (? @justmike_ ) #domesticviolenceawarenessmonth #domesticviolence #purplepurse ? @jenessecenter
A Federal High Court in Lagos has struck out a N1.86bn suit filed against the founder of the Living Faith Church, a.k.a. Winners’ Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo, by a stock brokerage firm, Valueline Securities and Investment Limited.
Justice Jude Dagat, in a ruling on Friday, described the plaintiffs’ suit as incompetent and dismissed it for want of jurisdiction.
Valueline Securities and Investment Limited and its Managing Director, Samuel Enyinnaya, had in February 2015 sued Oyedepo and his family for an alleged breach of contract in a N9bn stock market deal.
Joined as the 10th defendant in the suit was the Security and Exchange Commission. The plaintiffs, through their lawyer, Mr. Rickey Tarfa (SAN), sued for the enforcement of their fundamental rights and were claiming a total of N1.86bn from the defendants jointly and severally as professional fees and damages.
The plaintiffs, in their statement of claim, averred that Oyedepo, his family and organizations entered into an Investment Portfolio Management Agreement with them and appointed them as the portfolio managers to oversee and to ensure the profitability of the said investment worth about N9bn in the Nigerian Stock Exchange.
According to the plaintiffs, it was agreed that 2.25 per cent of the net asset value of the portfolio and an annual incentive fee of 10 per cent of the returns on the investment would be paid to the plaintiffs.
The plaintiffs said that in order to enhance the profitability of the investment, they obtained some margin loans from some Nigerian banks, which, they claimed, turned out to be a great boost to the investment.
They however said trouble started:
“when Oyedepo wanted to buy his first private jet and the World Mission Agency Inc ordered the sale of majority of the securities in the investment portfolio, and that despite the professional advice to the contrary, the plaintiffs were made to sell the securities to raise the N3bn needed to buy the jet, a development which brought about huge losses to the investment.”
According to the plaintiffs, following the said sale of the shares coupled with the global economic meltdown which caused stock market across the globe to crash at the time, the N9bn investment recorded losses.
The plaintiffs, however, alleged that in a bid to avoid their financial obligations to the plaintiffs, Oyedepo and his organisations accused them of fraud and mismanagement and wrote a petition against them to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
They however claimed that the EFCC found them innocent after six years of investigation after which Oyedepo further dragged them before the Nigerian Stock Exchange.
The plaintiffs alleged that the NSE unlawfully froze their business accounts and did not give them fair hearing. They had urged the court to order the NSE to immediately unfreeze their accounts.
They also sought the payment of N1.86bn as their professional fee and damages. But the Oyedepos, through their lawyer, Mr. Chioma Okwuanyi, filed a preliminary objection and asked the court to dismiss the suit for lack of jurisdiction.
Contrary to the plaintiffs’ claim, Okwuanyi maintained that the losses recorded on the N9bn investment were due to the plaintiffs’ recklessness, adding that the margin loan they took was without the consent of the Oyedepos and that the loan was not channeled into his clients’ investment.
In the three-ground preliminary objection, Okwuanyi contended that by the provisions of Section 34 of the Investment and Securities Act, only the Investment and Securities Tribunal had the vested authority to entertain a dispute between a capital market operator and his client and not a Federal High Court, to which the plaintiff had brought the matter.
The lawyer further argued that the plaintiffs’ suit, as constituted before the Federal High Court, was premature, as the plaintiff had yet to explore all the internal dispute resolution mechanism within the NSE before heading for the court.
In its own objection, the NSE, through its counsel, Mr. M.O. Liadi, also contended that the plaintiffs ought to have approached the NSE council to ventilate their grievances rather than rush to the Federal High Court.
In his ruling on Friday, Justice Dagat upheld the defendants’ preliminary objections and dismissed the plaintiffs’ suit.

Bauchi State government, in collaboration with security agents, has rescued 450 teenage girls from traffickers.
A member of Bauchi State High Level Women Advocates, HILWA, a non-governmental organisation, and a staff of the Ministry of Education, Kalimatu Abdulkadir, disclosed this at a briefing to mark the International Day of the Girl-Child, organised by the State Universal Basic Education Board, SUBEB, in collaboration with UNICEF, in Bauchi.
She said the Ministry of Education received information of teenage girls brought into the state from the neighbouring states of Zamfara, Jigawa and Sokoto and moved to Abuja in two batches. According to her, “investigations by security agents in the state revealed that some persons, who engaged in child trafficking, brought some girls from three northern states of Zamfara, Sokoto and Jigawa, into the state.
“The girls were camped at an undisclosed location in the state and were dispatched in batches to Abuja. Some of the girls were taken through Kano, while the remaining went through Bauchi. They took the routes to avoid detection by security agents on the highways.”
Kalimatu said security agents were able to track the whereabouts of the girls in Abuja, rescued them from their captors and reunited them with their families.
This WhatsApp conversation is of a lady who is currently in a dilemma about what to do with her fiance who asked her to return a Range Rover Sport and N20m that was given to her by her ex for her wedding.
A psycho paedophile has been jailed after he confessed to his wife that he had raped his daughter, his stepdaughter, the family dog and chickens. The young man in his 20s, who cannot be identified to protect his victims, has now been jailed for six years and seven months ONLY after admitting what he had done.
A court in Adelaide heard that he had raped his own daughter when she was just three years old. His stepdaughter was aged between nine and 11 when he raped her while she was asleep.
He also admitted penetrating chickens and their dog, according to ABC.
The man also committed penetrative sex acts with chickens and the family dog, the court heard.
His ex wife said in a victim impact statement: “We didn’t do anything wrong; my beautiful innocent children certainly never ever deserved to have such terrible violation occur on their bodies and hearts.”
The court was told that he had previously had sexual contact with dogs when he was a child. He was also abused, but was seeking treatment. Describing his actions as ‘unnatural, gross and disturbing’, Judge Paul Muscat said:
“You appear determined and motivated to engage in treatment and address your abhorrent and abnormal sexual behaviours, which is imperative in order to reduce your risk of further sexual offending.
“If the sentence imposed on you seems to some to be moderate then that is the product of your voluntary confessions and the healthy sentencing discounts which apply. Offenders should be encouraged to come clean and accept full responsibility for their criminal actions and then take steps to address the issues which led to their offending, as you have done.”
Man was abused as a child, court told
The court heard the man had an unconventional childhood and suffered abuse as a child, and also had sexual contact with dogs as a child and began to feel “aroused by the wrongfulness of his sexual behaviour”.

Danfos are the pariah Volkswagen commercial buses painted yellow, the official colours of Lagos State.
They are always on the road for nearly 24 hours every day. For Lagosians who are yet to own cars, the danfo is an effective way to move around the ever busy and bustling state.
Besides, if you are always on Lagos roads, you would have noticed the shenanigans of these drivers which can be very frustrating and annoying. Thus, their hatred for them. Jumia Travel shares some of the reasons why Lagosians hate danfos.
Danfo drivers are very reckless
Danfos are self-acclaimed kings of Lagos roads. They are uncontrollably reckless when driving. They will never listen to the caution of anyone except that of LASTMA.
If the Lastma officials are not on the highway, it’s a free-for-all. They will even tell you to take over the steering if you attempt to caution them.
