Media personality, Daddy Freeze has replied a follower who challenged him to heal a mad man in Lucifer’s name.
The controversial broadcaster in one of his teachings had stated that praying in the name of “Lucifer” is more potent than praying in the name of “Jesus”.
Freeze who has always aired his stance against the use of the name “Jesus”, gave the reason for his statement, saying the name “Jesus” has no meaning in neither Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, Latin nor English whereas the name “Lucifer” which means “Light bringer” has more meaning.
In reaction, a fan challenged Daddy Freeze to use the name of Lucifer which he claims is more potent, to heal a mad man.
The follower wrote,
“Sir I challenge you to a test. Let’s pick a random mad man on the street. Pray in the name of Lucifer I will pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Let’s see at the mention of who they get delivered. I dare you sir, this will end this rubbish you keep spitting out.”
Responding to the man’s challenge Daddy Freeze lashed out at him saying,
“I think that the first mad man that needs prayers is you, so let me pray for you to be delivered from benightedness and unscholarly religious slavery which is the highest form of slavery,” Daddy freeze said”.
Controversial Ghanaian Prophet, Nigel Gaisie, has reportedly said there is nothing wrong with a man of God womanizing or drinking alcohol.
According to the clergy man, stealing, drinking and womanizing by a man of God are mere weaknesses and not enough to tag him fake.
Speaking further, he noted that a man of God is fake only if he stops preaching about Jesus Christ or changes his covenant.
Gaisie who said this in a recent interview stated it’s wrong to criticize a man of God for drinking alcohol or womanizing, as David the man after God’s heart was a chronic womanizer and a drunkard.
In his words,
“When a man of God drinks alcohol, it doesn’t make him fake. When a man of God steals, it doesn’t make him fake. When a man of God womanizes or a woman of God has another boyfriend or doesn’t make him/her fake.
Every mortal vessel has a weakness, what makes a man of God fake is when he changes his covenant. If that man of God does not preach Jesus anymore, that is what makes him fake.
If you say that alcohol is wrong, then condemn David, because David was a chronic drunkard and womanizer,” he was quoted as saying”.

It was gathered that her husband, Joshua Nalem was left in a dilemma, not knowing what step to take next, after his wife left their matrimonial home to dedicate her life to the church.
According to him, “She went to church one day and when she returned she started waking up at 3am to go and pray. I asked her why she was braving the chilly weather just to pray, but instead, she decided to move out to a neighbouring homestead.”
Joshua claimed he tried to plead with her not to go but she refused. She told him she will come back once her “spirt husband” has granted her permission.
However, Elizabeth exchanged wedding vows with the Holy Spirit on Tuesday, May 25th, in a ‘lavish’ ceremony.
Her neighbour, Pastor Albert Rumaita granted her wish by officiating the peculiar wedding. He is also said to be the one who bought her the wedding gown and even ensured there was a convoy of cars to escort her on her big day.
Rumaita revealed he decided to preside over, plan and fund the wedding because the world might just be coming to an end.
After the wedding, an elated Elizabeth said she was done with serving the world and has now changed her life to serving God. She also disclosed that she has closed down her business.
In her words,
“Today, I am one of those who have received the word of God. I have faced difficulties, and it made me look for God.

The bride father is Igbo and mother is Yoruba, but he doesn’t want his daughter to marry Yoruba hence the reason they’re stressing the young man

UPDATED: ‘Fake News’: Police Says Nigerian Activist Sowore Was Not Shot in Abuja
The Police Command of the Federal Capital Territory, (FCT) has debunked claims that Omoyele Sowore a firmer presidential candidate and activist was shot by a female Assistant Commissioner of Police’ at the Unity Fountain, describing it as “false and fake news”.
Reports had emerged Monday with Sowore, the publisher of Sahara Reporters claiming he was shot at the Nigerian capital when they were protesting against the rising insecurity in the country.
But Spokesperson of the Command ASP Mariam Yusuf in a statement said “contrary to the speculation, Police Operatives professionally restored calm at the Unity Fountain following attempts by a group of protesters to incite a public disturbance.
“The protesters who went on the rampage were resisted by Police Operatives in order to prevent them from causing a breakdown of law and order. There is no record of such incident as at the time of this release.”
The Command enjoined residents to remain calm and law-abiding while reaffirming its commitment towards the protection of lives and property within the Federal Capital Territory.
Activist, Omoyele Sowore, was allegedly shot at by armed policewoman in Abuja today May 31.
Omoyele and a group of other Nigerians were staging a protest to demand an end to insecurity in the country.
Sowore was shot close to his hip by a gun-wielding policewoman drafted to the Unity Fountain to disperse the protesters.
He confirmed the report by sharing a photo of the wound and wrote ;
Just been shot by a police officer, ACP Atine at the Unity Fountain in Abuja. #RevolutionNow Let the struggle continue even if they take my life!
Nollywood actor, Samuel Ajibola popularly know as Spiff in “The Johnson’s”, has reacted to claims that his wife made him quit his role on the TV series.
Recall that not long after he got married, Ajibola who plays the role of Spiff, a special child on the sitcom, announced the end of his role.
Ajibola got married in January 2020, and in May 2021 he made the official announcement that he was quitting his role, in a video he shared on his Instagram page. According to him, he is ready to move on and grow in his acting career.
While his fans speculates that his wife instigated his decision to quit his role on the TV series, Spiff in a recent interview with Sunday Scoop debunked the claims. According to him, his decision had nothing to do with his marital status.
In his words,
“My decision had nothing to do with my marital status. My wife was very supportive of my decision. She knows I am very analytical. I am not okay with being in my comfort zone for too long. I’m adventurous and I like challenges. My family also gave me their blessings. I know a lot of people might have different opinions about this but I am not moved by that. Being Spiff is not the ultimate. I have bigger purposes to fulfill in life and time is of the essence. I have a lot of things in the ‘bag’ and I’m not quitting acting.
If one is easily swayed by the opinions of people, one would find oneself in a difficult place. Bloggers have even made news quite hard to verify. Just recently, someone created a fake Twitter handle and tweeted that my wife was my former classmate. The person also claimed my wife used to put my name on the ‘list of noisemakers’.” That was not a true story but it went viral. Those are some of the things celebrities face. We all have our struggles, irrespective of one’s popularity.
For example, a lot of people did not know that the late American actor, Chadwick Boseman, was going through a lot before his death. They did not know that he was fighting so many battles. Humans are naturally opinionated and the negative side of social media is not helping either. The morality of some of the people who criticise others heavily on social media should be questioned. I have been in the industry for over 25 years. I started when I was just six years old, so I know these things. Being popular does not make one have a regular life. It comes with a lot of attention.”
Award winning Nigerian singer, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido, has taken to social media to shower praises on all entertainers across the board.

In his words, “Shout out to all entertainers worldwide ❤️as fun as it looks this our work no easy …👏”
shout out to all entertainers worldwide ❤️ as fun as it looks this out work no easy … 👏
In other news, Popular rapper, Oladips has showered praises on Davido for his huge contribution and influence in the Nigerian music industry.
Davido is currently the most-talked-about Nigerian singer as fans and fellow celebrities join him in celebrating his 10th year on stage.

According to her, he “denied his own child to lay with another woman, stating that I told him about the pregnancy when I was 5 months old”.
Here’s what she wrote;
“Even tho I’ve been trying to move on, everyday I still wake up to a wound which still causes me pain. And yes healing is a process and I know I will get there soon. But the more I think and remember certain things, especially the ones I’ve not spoken about the more my anger and frustration builds up, cause I’ve really been through it throughout my whole life tbvh and right now, I just wish, I honestly wish I could cause some people pain the way they’ve done to me, even if it can not measure up to the mental, physical, financial pain I’ve been put through, but once again I blame myself and no-one will ever understand the burdens in which I carry upon my shoulders.
Him and his manager came to the UK on 2 occasions, BOTH occasion they had no money with them or atleast that’s what they said, stupid manager would still call me at 3am in the morning to top up her phone for her, never once offered to pay me back, how do you go on hoilday and have no money, no money to the point you can’t even feed yourself, went hours without food????
I was the one ordering food to you on several occasions, I was even 5months pregnant the 2nd time they came and none of them made efforts to see me, NONE. He refused when I told him to send location and I would come see him, even if it was for a day. He was with his supposed “side chick” (which I later found out about) and would still call me to order all of them food, and I did it cause I cared, but never received anything back from the good I did, not that I wanted anything back but all they did was repay me back with evil, repay me back with pain, repaid me back in the most hurtful way.
Denied his own child to lay with another woman, stating I told him about the pregnancy when I was 5months but when I sent him a screenshot of me telling him about the pregnancy at 3weeks all he could say was “fr ,:k” on video call. I’m thankful I have every receipts and screenshot of him constantly stating he wanted a child, of him always asking if I’d seen my period, he was fucking obsessed about having Aari and I never really understood why, but I did it out of love, a love so blind I couldn’t see far ahead into the future, made me believe he was ready, made me feel he loved and cared enough about our relationship for us to start our own family and as soon as I fell pregnant, a few months in, HE CHANGED COMPLETELY”
