Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management, Sadiya Umar Farouq, has insisted that the N5,000 stipend being shared by the Buhari regime to some Nigerians goes a long way to help their lives.
While speaking to reporters at the State House, Abuja on Thursday, she said it is “elitist” to assume that the N5,000 monthly national cash transfer to vulnerable households is insignificant.
In her words ;
“If you look at the people that you are taking this intervention to, N5,000 means a lot to them because these are poor and vulnerable households and it changes their status,” said the minister, “but for you and me, N5,000 is not even enough for us to buy recharge card, that’s the difference. But for these poor people in the communities, you have seen, they were able to save out of that N5,000.
When people say N5000 does not save people, that is an elitist statement, honestly because we’ve had causes to go to the field, and we have seen these people that when you give them this N5,000, they cried and shed tears because they’ve never seen N5,000 it in their lives. So, it goes a long way, it changes their status and by that, it lifts them from one stage to another.”
Reno Omokri has kicked against abortion and he says it is a sin that is worse than murder.
In a post shared on his Instagram page this evening, Reno wrote;
”Abortion is a sin, according to Scripture. It is the taking of human life. Exodus 21:22-23 plainly describes an unborn foetus as a human life and that any man who causes a pregnant woman to lose her foetus is guilty of murder.
Ordinarily I would not want to comment on this, but I have been bombarded by people whose faiths are being undermined. The only time I ever publicly disagree with a pastor is when people’s faith are undermined.
Abortion is not compatible with Christ following. That is why I teach against premarital and extramarital sex. But if you have done it and get pregnant, don’t turn one weakness into two wickednesses!
Abortion is even worse than murder. Because most murderers murder someone who they feel has wronged them. While that is not exculpatory, we can see how that can be a human weakness. But why kill an unborn foetus that has not offended you or anyone?
Premarital and extramarital sex are sinful and wrong. However, if you want to have premarital sex, or even marital sex, without getting pregnant, using protection is better than abortion later. But that protection must not be for the purpose of avoiding your responsibility-Genesis 38:9-10.
Even rape should not lead to abortion. At worse, have the child and have him or her adopted. But abortion and Christ following are Parallel lines that will NEVER intersect!
Being a Christ follower is not easy. You must commit to adjusting your life to suit Scripture, even Scripture that you do not like (yes, there are Scripture I do not like). That is better than adjusting Scripture to suit your lifestyle.”
