These SA pastors confuse me a lot though ???… Y’all recall that SA pastor who made his congregation eat snakes telling em it tastes like chocolate?! I’m sure you do!
Well, a new South African pastor has claimed he performed a miracle after he allegedly poured hot water on members of his church.
23 year old Pastor Thamsanqa Sambulo, is the founder and apostle at Thy Word Kingdom Harvest Ministries.
A post on the Church’s facebook page says:
The apostle then told someone to go boil water in a kettle at the kitchen. One young man went there and did so…
He came back with boiling water.
The Son of God took the kettle and put it on himself (on his chest, he hugged it). The congregation was in shock, as they shouted: “NO!”
Some couldn’t even look.
.
He then asked; “who has faith here?”
One by one, people came and did what the apostle did, and were not hurt.
He re-boiled the water… as he did;
…one young woman came to him and said;
“Papa I have faith, pour it on my hand as hot as it is.”
The Son of God first poured on Himself, then poured unto this lady.
The rest of the congregation, one by one followed, as they also wanted to test their faith.

As part of efforts to support the children left behind by the late Minister of State for Labour, Mr James Ocholi (SAN), the Federal Government has announced automatic employment at the Federal Ministry of Justice for Aaron, his eldest son.

He also disclosed that Aaron’s other siblings would enjoy scholarships for their educational pursuits, courtesy of the Federal Government who has pledged to cushion the effect of the loss of their parents.
The Minister added that the Senior Advocate was a very critical part of the change effort of the Federal Government.
He said that President Buhari personally mandated him to inform the family of the late Minister that his administration would do all within its power to ensure he is not missed.
Mr Malami consoled them that death was a necessary end that was bound to happen, adding that God in his infinite mercy had a reason for allowing them to depart the way they did.
“I am here to convey Mr President’s condolence message and he has asked me to personally inform you that you have been given automatic employment in the Federal Ministry of Justice. The employment letter is in process and you can resume work after now”, he told Ocholi’s eldest son.
“Your father was a very hardworking and conscientious member of the Federal Executive Council who was very passionate and worked hard for the realisation of the change agenda of this government.
“Indeed, it is a sad moment for all of us and the vacuum which his death has created is not only for the family, but the leadership as well. He was a great pillar in the struggle which brought this administration to power. He played a major role in the merger process,” the AGF said.
Mr Malami also recalled that as far back as the days of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Ocholi was one of those who stood strong behind President Buhari and was one of those who took part in the judicial struggle afterward in an effort to claim the presidential mandate at the election tribunal up to the Supreme Court at that time.
He prayed that his departed soul rests in peace.

His words:
“Funke Akindele needs to pray hard so as to have a child before she go back to her creator. She will be reeling in blessing and all good things of life.
If care is not taken, she won’t have a child before she dies. The entertainment industry in Nigeria should pray that six super stars shall not die this year.
They should also be prayerful and rely on God because in finding what they didn’t lose, they may meet their waterloos.
The blessing from the devil will keep coming to them but they are going to come with unexpected calamities,” he predicted.

The actress has finally opened up on how they met and how she came to be married for the second time.
According to her:
“I met my husband a long time ago though then he was like an uncle, that was in the 80’s when I was 14-years-old. He was a family friend who used to visit us a lot and I also used to go to his house to see his dad and his kid sister who was my best friend then.
I used to say to him, “Hello uncle, what did you buy for me today” and all that. I grew up and also kept in contact with the family until after a while naturally we all lost contact.”
Speaking on how he proposed, Monalisa revealed he didn’t go down on both knees like some men would but just called to say they were getting married.
She said:
“He didn’t propose, he just called me and said “Lisa, i have come for you, you are my wife.” I said Uncle Ola how? And he said ‘don’t call me uncle, I am not your uncle, I am now your husband.” I got angry and didn’t talk to him again for a while because i didn’t understand what he meant by calling me his wife, as i wasn’t thinking about settling down as at then. Marriage was the last thing on my mind, so i was thrown aback and wondered what the heck was going on. Then i was summoned to come to Port Harcourt to see his dad and coincidentally I found out that he had never brought any woman to introduce to his dad before.”
Monalisa was formerly married to Segun Dejo-Richard and their marriage crashed in 2009 following domestic abuse. They had a child together.

The Ooni of Ife, H.R.M Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi will be tying the knot with his wife to be, Wuraola Otiti Obanor on the 12th of March, 2016…
Perhaps what attracted the Ooni to Wuraola was the fact that she bears the same name as his late mother Princess Margaret ‘Wuraola’ Ogunwusi.
According to Dawn to dusk news, here is what led to their meeting:
Many have been wondering if the charming first-class king ascended the throne without a wife. Let’s tell you that the 41-year-old king was married to Bukola Bombata who stepped out with him during his coronation in December 2015.
Then-Prince Adeyeye Ogunwusi at 31 years old, married Bukola {nee Bombata} in 2008. They had a traditional wedding, and holy solemnization in church.
We however gathered that before then, things were not going on smoothly on the home front with the estranged couple.
Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi has a child Adeola from a previous relationship. The well-loved king decided to seek his love in Wuraola soon after his first marriage to Bukola crashed due to irreconcilable differences.
news of their separation was made public, Oba Ogunwusi shut down speculations about his marriage status when he started appearing at public events without Bukola.
The first-class king will however cease to be a bachelor from this Saturday. After his traditional wedding to Wuraola on Sunday, 13th March 2016, there will be a thanksgiving ceremony at the Royal Court of Ife, Aafin, Enuwa Square in Ile-Ife, Osun State by 12 noon.
Dawn-To-Dusk News gathered that though the coming together of Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi and Wuraola Obanor is seen as a rather unexpected union, the lovebirds couldn’t have been happier as they are head over heels with each other.
According to a source, It was in Lagos that the Ooni and Wuraola were said to have been introduced. He lived previously in Lagos and owned a thriving real estate business Essential Homes headquartered in Lekki.
“Ooni is very happy and they get along so well. They’re having a great time together. There are so many qualities that Ooni found in Wuraola: aside her beauty, she’s respectful, gracious, cool-headed, and homely. Friends have since said they have never seen Ooni as happy as he is with Wuraola, and her joy is evident whenever they are together!”

Earlier on, I read that @iamdencia offered to help with his rent.
My question now:
Is the growth of this Country now the sole responsibility of the youths? Are our politicians going to ignore this guys immense talent? Sujimoto and Dencia are both young people and they immediately jumped at the opportunity to lay the building blocks of our future.
Your excellency, Gov. Ayodele Fayose, I can see you love Nigeria and you are passionate about her growth, please help Ayodele, he is your name sake. Otunba Mike Adenuga, Femi Otedola, let’s put all hands on deck, to ensure that our future is secure by harnessing all of Nigeria’s available intellectual potential.
